203. The end of the mercenaries
203. The end of the mercenaries
The cyan brilliance of flames burned violently. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
The surging flames surrounded Leon, the hallmark of the paladin, the strongest proof that transcended the boundaries of mortals.
Immense power was poured into the blade of the holy sword, making it incomparably strong and sharp.
The sword body trembled slightly, as if he was sincerely pleased with the change in his master.
It used to be the holy sword that accommodated Leon, barely exerting less than half of his strength, but now, Leon has finally become a strong man worthy of this sword.
Feeling the joy of the weapon in his hand, Leon gripped it tightly.
"I'm sorry, Languresa, for keeping you waiting. β
"From now on, let's really fight side by side!"
As if in response to the knight's thoughts, the holy sword groaned.
"I don't know what to say!!"
Reinhardt's face was full of anger, and his fierce expression completely distorted his handsome face.
The moment he lost his closest friend, a calm and elegant smile disappeared from the man's face.
Once upon a time, the brilliance that made people yearn for it, and the brilliance that people involuntarily wanted to follow disappeared, and was replaced by boundless darkness.
Desperate and deep silver darkness.
Reinhardt is not a hero at this moment, nor is he the ambitious mercenary he once was.
He is an avenger, a human form dominated by resentment and anger.
And the goal of this avenger has been decided from the very beginning!
"Take it, knight!!"
Swing your elbows deep behind you, and then, burst out in one breath!!
The bayonet sword in his hand thrust forward.
The lights are connected into a line.
"I can see through this attack!!"
Holding Ranguraisa in his hand, under the protection of the cyan holy light, the knight was full of power and saw through the enemy's attack.
It's an unstoppable blow, and the only way to deal with it is to dodge.
However...... Can't dodge.
Behind Leon was Van who sat on a stone on the side of the road and watched the battle.
According to the trajectory of Reinhardt's attack, if this blow is dodged, it will definitely hit Fan behind him.
It stands to reason that in a battle that is evenly matched, or even slightly inferior in strength, Leon will not be able to take into account the surrounding situation, but the knight has long been accustomed to putting Fan first, and for the knight, the Duke has even given priority to his own life, and his daily behavior has long made the knight accustomed to being able to take care of the existence of Fan in time even in the most severe situations.
Therefore, never retreat!!
"I must not fail here, and I must not allow the Duke to be put in danger!"
"Rangurasa, lend me strength!!"
Hearing the call of his master, the Holy Sword Ranguresa burst into unprecedented brilliance.
The cyan haze that belonged to Leon was absorbed, replaced by a hazy transparent color like the mist after the rain.
Leon's fighting spirit was transformed into another kind of power by the Holy Sword Ranguressa.
"Absolutely...... Block!!"
Leon met the weapon in his hand to Reinhardt's killing blow.
It was as if his hand had been violently slammed with a force heavier than a battering ram.
It was obviously a one-point attack, but for no reason it erupted with an impact like a giant beast's full force, which made Leon's weapon almost out of his hands, and his skin had already cracked.
However, Leon did not back down and blocked Reinhardt's attack to the death.
This is incorrect, and Reinhardt is quite confident in this, as past experience proves that even the best sword will be pierced.
However, to his surprise, Languresa was able to hold up intact, and the concentrated attack did not penetrate the blade of the holy sword.
"This sword ......" The mercenary looked at the long sword in the other hand's hand in amazement, no matter how much he overestimated this ornately decorated long sword in advance, Reinhardt never expected the strength of Rangurasa. This has far surpassed the level of ordinary products, to the extent that only invincible heroes or powerful emperors are qualified to possess the so-called legendary weapons.
"This is ......," Leon said in a deep voice, holding the holy sword in his hand.
"Proof of the bond that I and the Duke will never be able to break!!"
"Ah~~~~ What you said is too ambiguous, Leon, I'll be shy. "Where secretly cover their faces.
"No, that's not what I meant, Lord Duke!!," Mr. Knight explained in a panic.
"Don't be too arrogant!!"
Reinhardt interrupted the conversation between the two and lunged towards Leon with all his might.
The two swords collided together, relying on the blessing of the fighting spirit, Reinhardt's slender sword body with only a slight layer of thickness was not cut off by the knight's holy sword, but stuck together with the other party.
"It's always like this, the nobility always has something better, always playing with us commoners from above, taking away what is most important to us!
"Is fighting me just a joke for you? am I just a stepping stone?"
"No kidding, I will never forgive you!I will never let you go!I will definitely kill you!!"
Flicking the silver-white bayonet away, Leon launched a counterattack in the next moment: "It's not a joke, it's not a stepping stone. β
"To me, you are an obstacle that must be overcome, a formidable enemy!"
"I respect you, so I will do my best to defeat you. β
"Ahem, my Leon means that after saying that today you are useless waste bastard, now you are your dead idiot stupid, give me two obedient deaths, stupid stupid!!" Fan made a translation in the back.
γLord Duke......γLeon's heart was weeping.
"Don't give me ......"
"Get carried away!!"
The image of the broad greatsword plunging alone into the dirt flashed before Reinhardt's eyes, and his heart swerved.
There's no going back.
Dreams, the future, everything, if that person is not around, becomes meaningless.
After the desolation, the next moment is an irrepressible anger!
Dominated by rage, Reinhardt stretched out his arm and met Leon's swinging blade.
"What?!" Leon, who was confused by the other party's unusual behavior, did not grasp the opportunity of that moment.
The next moment, flesh and blood flew sideways.
An arm flew into the sky, and with this momentary gap, Reinhardt successfully twisted Leon's tight interception like light.
After that, the road to Van is in full sight.
"It doesn't matter if you want to get ahead, whether it's my life, or if you have an arm, it's okay to give it all to you, it's just you!" Almac !!!"
"Oops!!Lord Duke!!" Leon, who had cut off one of his arm's arms, turned white in shock, and he instantly turned around and rushed towards the mercenary who had twisted him, but the time it took to turn around made him completely unable to keep up with the enemy who had been at full speed from the beginning.
"Secret Technique...... Haunted!"
With that voice, Van, who had almost been stabbed by Reinhardt, suddenly disappeared.
The next moment, Fan appeared by Leon's side, grabbed the corner of Leon's clothes, and said to the mercenary who failed to attack: "I'm not that crappy stand-in puppet, I will suffer if I underestimate me, mercenary." β
"Oh, it turns out that you have already suffered a loss, what a pity. β
"Lord Duke, please stand back. β
Leon's face was full of humiliation, and once again, he had made up his mind, but once again put the people he swore to protect in danger.
Unforgivable, absolutely unable to forgive such an incompetent self.
"Burst out all my powers!!"
"This time, absolutely, absolutely! will never let you hurt everything I am guarding. β
"The culprit who has robbed me of everything, this time, absolutely! absolutely! absolutely going to kill you!!"
Reinhardt's body erupted with dazzling brilliance, no longer covering his body with a thin layer of fighting energy like flames, but engulfing the mercenaries like a huge cocoon.
There was only one place where it was blood-red, and that blood-red was so conspicuous in the mass of silver light, and that was the wound on the mercenary's lost arm.
On the other side, although Leon's condition was not so exaggerated, he also burst out with all his fighting energy, and the holy sword in his hand, Lan Gresa, continued to cut through the air under the slight swing, causing the space around the sword body to appear distorted and unstable.
"This is my final blow, take it!!" the mercenary roared frantically.
"With the strength of me and Rangurasa, and the faith of protecting Lord Duke, I will definitely not lose with all this!!" the knight roared.
Two tremendous forces collided with each other at that moment.
The clouds in the sky were blown away by the momentum that erupted from the ground.
At that moment, the heavens and the earth were eclipsed.
........................
"The protagonist will never lose to the villain. β
"The moment your partner was killed, you had already failed, and I had Leon on my side, so we definitely couldn't lose. β
"Now, isn't it, Leon?"
Van stepped forward and knocked on Leon's armor, making a choking sound.
"I will always guard you, Lord Duke, for this is the vow of my life for Leon Ann Hart!"
The knight said with a calm face.
Opposite him, the radiance of Reinhardt had faded, and in his chest, a wound large enough to penetrate his heart had slipped through his body.
"Bus, I'm sorry, I lost the fight, and I can't avenge you. β
Leaning back to his strong friend, Reinhardt said sadly.
"It doesn't matter, at least we did a big job, and we didn't live in vain in this world once, it's enough!"
Leaning back against his relatively slender best friend, the tall black swordsman replied nonchalantly.
Reinhardt's dead face maintained a peculiar expression, a smile that seemed to be a smile, a cry, and a little satisfaction mixed with a little regret.
The long-standing path of the silver-white mercenaries has finally come to an end at this moment......
The next chapter is expected to have the final boss of the book (in fact, it has appeared before), so guess who it is. (To be continued.) )
