The Failed Swordsman Who Became the Strongest After Spamming the 100 Million Years Button

389. Country of Sakura, Cherin and the Seven Holy Swords [160]

「To think you could destroy my sand sphere with just one swing… That’s truly a ridiculous output.」

Von avoided my jet-black slash by a hair’s breadth, quickly recovered Deal, and jumped far back.

「So this is the “Darkness of House Rodore”… It’s very different from the information received, but it’s an absurd power all the same. No wonder Barrel Ronelia is wary.」

Von readied his stance on high alert, evaluating me with his gaze.

Right then, Deal began to squirm under Von’s armpit.

「I-I… must be with…Allen bro…」

「Deal, I don’t give a damn about your suicidal desires. Go to sleep over there until Hydra’s power recovers.」

Von said, and threw Deal to the side casually.

(…That damn trash has started healing again.)

Blood has already stopped spurting out of the gaping air hole in his torso.

That resilience is probably a special trait of the spirit core called〈Hydra〉.

Like a damn cockroach.

(Anyway, what the hell happened to that Bacchus fellow?)

Looking back, I saw Bacchus breathing wildly, clasping the ground with his right hand.

His veiny left hand was grasping his left chest tightly, fresh blood dripping from the edge of his mouth.

(…Seizures, huh.)

It would be impossible to continue fighting in that state.

As I turned around after checking the situation,

「Allen Rodore. Why don’t you join us?」

Von extended a ridiculous proposal.

「The power you have displayed is commendable. It would be a shame for you to die here… It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to call it a loss for the entire world.」

He started talking as he pleased without waiting for my reply.

「I am strong, if I do say so myself. Far stronger than Deal over there.」

Von kept speaking with a fearless smile.

「You can’t beat me in your immature state. Crossing sword with me at this juncture would be no more that suicide. If so, why don’t you choose the smarter choice? Join us and help establish “Justice”–」

「–Blablablablabla…. Just shut up!」

「……What?」

「I will kill Deal. If you get in my way, I’ll kill you too, bastard. That’s the end of the story.」

I said, and pointed the tip of the Black Sword at him.

「Haa… I have no other choice if you decide to stand against justice. By my true soul dress, I will make you the cornerstone of peace.」

In the blink of an eye, Von’s spiritual power swelled up tremendously.

「H”ou, it looks like you were not just runnin’ your mouth…」

The tranquil killing intent shooting off of him was reminiscent of a sharpened blade, accompanied by a pressure which pierces the skin and freezes the spine.

Although the true soul dress had not been brought out yet, it was releasing more pressure than〈Hydra〉.

As expected of one of the Seven Holy Swords hailed as the seven strongest swordsman of humanity, it wasn’t just an exaggeration, it seems.

With a sharp glint in his eyes, Von slowly spread both hands.

And then,

「Swim in the Void -〈Sand Whale of Purification〉.」

Small palm-sized whales appeared in the air.

(Tsk, another strange ability…)

The outer skin of the whale was brown. A splendid horn on its head.

But the most important detail, the number was slightly over 100.

I caught one which was floating near me, but it instantly turned into golden sand. The golden sand was scattered away by the wind, and formed into a new whale.

(I see……)

Apparently, this whale is completely abiotic.

Von’s ability is no doubt manipulating sand freely.

「Now, let’s get started.」

His right hand gripped a small sand sword, and his left hand carried a sand shield that covered half his body.

The word “knight” was more suitable than “swordsman” for him.

「It’s my first time facing off against a shield user.」

「Well, it’s going to be your first and last experience. Enjoy it.」

「Ha”h, we’ll see about that!」

In this way, the battle between me and Von Mustang began.
