249Shadow cast over Dmitry (3)

A time of upheaval in Cairo.

Fernando was swept up in the change..

When I visited Roman Dmitri, he looked at Fernando and said:.

“What I want is clear. I want a man named Fernando to live for me..”

that day.

Fernando saw a ray of light.

People mocked and insulted Fernando, who was called the 30th-ranked gatekeeper, but Roman Dmitry recognized his true value and talked about his future..

Maybe he was just a talkative guy..

However, he decided that a man with the experience he had was worth dedicating his whole life to..

So I headed to Dmitry..

and.

witnessed a new world.

It was surprising that such a wealthy and vibrant city existed in the far northeast, but the most shocking part was the way Dmitry's soldiers trained..

Fernando has tried to gain access to various knowledge to solve his problems..

Even if great technology recognized by an empire like Valhalla was imported, there was actually no level of technology that was great enough to create such a dramatic change..

however.

The martial arts that Roman Dmitry spoke of was different..

The moment he dealt with mana in a new way, Fernando felt that his previous common sense was completely destroyed..

‘Is there such technology in the world?.’

I was ecstatic.

Until now, I thought it was quite inefficient when dealing with mana..

The mana spread throughout the body was not perfectly controlled, and a lot of mana was shed during the process of erupting the aura..

However, the inefficient method was the right way for everyone to follow..

There were some regrets about the method, but it was not an easy matter to deny the method that Ora swordsmen had historically practiced..

Such thoughts.

completely destroyed.

Fernando absorbed new knowledge and improved upon his weaknesses by following Roman Dmitry's teachings..

It was a tough time at first..

Fernando, who was born with a narrow path to mana, had many limitations in the use of mana, and even though he accumulated mana in the Danjeon, his development was inevitably slower than others..

Still, Fernando was not disappointed..

Even though he was called the 30th-ranked gatekeeper, he never gave up on the possibility of development, so he was hopeful enough to handle the current situation with a smile..

Although it is very slight. Results were clearly being achieved, and during his time with Dmitri, Fernando devoted himself to training to the point where he was even called crazy..

at last.

Kwaang!

The path to mana has been opened.

The moment a new mana path was opened, Fernando entered a completely different realm..

people said.

“Fernando. He is such a sad person. Considering that he can use a 4-star aura despite his physical limitations, it is hard to predict how much he would have grown even if he had been born with a normal level of talent. The nickname of the 30th-ranked gatekeeper. In addition to the meaning of the limit of effort, it also represents the greatness of Fernando, who rose to that position through effort alone..”

He is like that.

solved my problem.

The day I expressed my gratitude to Roman Dmitry.

Roman Dmitry made Ferdinand the sword to protect the Dmitry royal family..

* * *

without any special signal.

The shadows rushed at once..

In the surging black waves, Fernando created an aura..

“stop the enemies!”

Kwarung.

Crumbling.

The momentum was different from before..

The aura burned so fiercely that it seemed to distort the atmosphere, directly confronting the shadows rushing in from the front..

The shadows attacked Fernando at the same time..

Their auras joined forces and showed a tremendous presence, but the moment Fernando and the sword met, their auras were torn apart at once..

Grinding.

Mana was scattered.

The moment the panicked shadows were about to retreat, Fernando rushed forward and cut into their bodies..

flash.

Shadows scattered dark red blood.

Fernando did not stop there, but exploded his aura and delved into a space filled with shadows. It was a dangerous scene..

Shadows attacked from all directions and threatened his life, but Fernando's sword skills blocked all of the enemy attacks..

No, as soon as I blocked, I immediately cut down the attacking opponent..

Phuwak.

It was an attack that a shadow could not block..

The explosive power of the aura was so strong that my head was already blown away when I heard the sound of the roaring sound..

papad.

Papapot.

Shadows spread everywhere..

They also decided that Fernando was stronger than they thought, and some tried to restrain him by creating shadows, while others tried to avoid Fernando and enter the inner sanctuary..

In the first place, it was not a fight to kill Fernando. It was more important to the Shadows to kill the person on the list than Fernando..

Moment.

Kwaang!

Fernando kicked the ground..

The restraints were released at once, and a wave of mana broke out, breaking the balance of the shadows..

And when they figured it out.

“where.”

flash.

The heads of the shadows were blown away..

Fernando did not allow shadows to pass him by, and if they showed impure intentions, he would chase them down and cut off their heads..

Fernando's presence swelled to a frightening extent..

A being who was once called a colorless and odorless swordsman met his master named Roman Dmitri and gained wings on his back..

Right now at this moment.

Fernando found the meaning of life.

In a situation that clearly proved the meaning of the sword's existence, Fernando could not have been more happy..

‘When a swordsman uses his sword for something meaningful, his existence gains meaning. Until now, I was just a weak person who got stuck in a quagmire because I couldn't solve the problems I was born with. But it's different from now on. If I live for Roman Dmitri, who made me who I am today, I can exist as a prosecutor until the moment I die..’

What a joy this is.

your own efforts.

his own swordsmanship.

had significant meaning.

A being who had wandered for quite some time found his way thanks to the one and only being Roman Dmitri..

Kwasik!

trampled on the shadows.

more cruelly.

I didn't dare to look up at Roman Dmitry, so I didn't take matters into my own hands..

Roman Dmitry didn't even know if he recognized this side of Fernando..

Therefore, he was given the title of sword that protects the Dmitry royal family, and from then on, Fernando displayed a clear color rather than being colorless and odorless..

intense flames.

Fernando's presence covered the shadows..

The Cronos Empire's surprise and perfect plan was blocked one by one by Dmitry's members..

at last.

Suddenly.

Even the last shadow.

I stumbled and fell down..

Fernando, as he said, did not allow even a single shadow..

three points.

The result was the total annihilation of the shadows..

outside the castle.

Mystique showed a surprised expression..

Through the link, it was confirmed that the shadows entering the castle were rapidly decreasing..

“……Even the shadows failed?.”

Beyond astonishment.

Now it was absurd..

They were not ordinary assassins, but shadows..

Even if we had known of their existence, it would have been difficult to stop them, but we were able to accurately understand the shadows' movements and deal with them quickly..

Dmitry had a clever mind.

At the same time, it was clear that the beings who could handle the shadows worked in perfect harmony with each other to organize the internal situation..

That wasn't all.

As I was looking at the still intact castle walls, a subordinate approached me and spoke in an urgent voice..

“Mystic. An emergency alert has been issued for the northeastern region. Reinforcements have departed from the territories belonging to the Duchy of Dmitry, and the Kingdom of Cairo is also quickly sending troops to the border. If things continue like this, it's only a matter of time before you're surrounded by enemies. As early as 12 hours. Inside, enemy reinforcements will arrive..”

The response of Dmitry's lords was uneven..

When they heard that Dmitry had been attacked, they organized reinforcements and sent them right away without any hesitation..

It was a part where we could see trust in each other..

No matter how much they belong to Dmitry's principality, they would not have reacted so quickly if they did not truly serve Dmitry..

However, the nobles in the northeastern region sent troops as if they had been waiting. Moreover, even the Kingdom of Cairo reacted..

Just a few years ago, Dmitry was just a baron, but now he stands at the top and is trusted by everyone..

“Dmitry. The more you know, the more dangerous they are..”

also.

Kronos' judgment was right.

Instead of just reacting sensitively to things like Dmitri, I had to nip it in the bud when he was called something like that..

Kronos and Valhalla.

There was a starting point before development.

Knowing that leaving Dmitry like this would definitely put him in danger, the Kronos Empire made a decision..

The one who gave orders to Mystique.

He said this.

“This is a fight where failure is not allowed. Even if Roman Dmitry is not there, we need to do everything in our power to take him down. If 1 power is enough to win against Dmitry. We will deploy 10% of our strength for this operation and completely block any possible variables..”

he was a beast.

A true beast that does its best to catch and eat even a rabbit..

The order was given.

Kronos's army, led by Mystique, was only at a power of 3 out of 10, and the Shadows were likewise at a power of 3..

Mystique looked at Dmitri's walls with a relaxed expression..

Two-way operation.

In the first place, it was just a prelude to hiding the true purpose..

dmitry palace.

it was safe there.

Since the resistance was not breached, everyone was confident that the area where Duke Dmitry stayed was safe..

But now.

A scene different from what was expected unfolded..

puck.

Kwasik!

Dmitry's soldier was thrown against the wall..

He spotted the enemy and tried to send a signal, but before he could react, he was swept away by overwhelming force..

“You bastards.”

a being steeped in darkness.

A man with a shape similar to a shadow frowned..

Kronos was clear about the results he wanted to achieve through this war..

I hoped to show what kind of end those who oppose the Kronos Empire face..

The way to do this was to either overthrow Dmitry and trample him miserably, or kill Duke Dmitry, the 'king' they served..

for purpose.

A shadow named Sven came out..

Even if the Ora swordsmen occasionally blocked the road, they were never able to block Sven's attacks..

Crumbling.

an exploding aura.

6It was the power of sex.

Even among the shadows, Sven was a being with overwhelming power..

The three shadows people talk about.

While beings who channel physical power are ordinary shadows, beings who use special power are called demons of the abyss in Kronos..

And Sven is also one of the beings called the Demon of the Abyss, but the people of the continent express him as a different branch of the three shadows..

blast furnace.

There were two types of shadows.

special or not special.

Sven walked down the wide hallway..

It's noisy outside because of the battle..

If Duke Dmitry exists at the end of this, I assure you that he will not be able to survive from his grasp..

How long did you walk?.

Stand tall.

stopped walking.

Sven stood a little away from the huge door and looked at the face of the man blocking his path..

“A young but fierce face like a wild cat. I heard that there is a person under Roman Dmitri who walks around with venomous eyes and full of madness. He said his name was probably Kevin..”

Zech.

man.

Kevin stood up..

While the war was going on, Kevin didn't move a single step from this spot..

Sven smiled broadly..

“Feel so good. An opportunity to kill both the target and Duke Dmitri at the same time. I'll kill you right here.”

Kwarung.

Crumbling rumbling.

Sven created an aura..

that.

Except for Roman Dmitri, it was a powerful force that no swordsman could block..
