episode_0008

When the bell signaling the sparring rang, the man and woman simultaneously took up their stances while holding their wooden swords.

The two began walking clockwise, aiming at each other in the center of the coronation ceremony.

In the suffocating tension,

Neither of the two acted hastily.

As soon as she held the sword, her expression became quite serious.

Likewise, Han Seo-jin had an unknown aura flowing from the moment he held the wooden sword.

‘I didn’t know that your brother had awakened, but… I have an overwhelming advantage when it comes to sword fighting…!’

She quickly closed the distance and approached him.

Han Yun-seo raised his sword and struck him diagonally with all his might.

Kak-! Kagagak-!

The wooden training swords collided and fragments began to fly.

I quickly swung at him with the precise posture I had used thousands of times before.

As if he had expected it, Han Seo-jin twisted the angle of the blade so that it deflected to the side.

He linked the movements and quickly twisted his wrist and quickly swung his sword towards her.

widely!

In an instant, his sword blade flew strongly over his head.

I reflexively raised my sword and blocked his attack.

Her expression distorted and she quickly took a step back.

‘That movement just now… I thought you didn’t even know the basics… I guess I underestimated it too much.’

The youngest son adjusted his sword with a much more serious expression.

This time, he swung violently horizontally toward Han Seo-jin’s side.

Kak–! Kaga-ga-gak—!

A sword strike so fast that it is difficult to follow with the eye.

However, he started to get closer and closer, deflecting the attacks with a relaxed expression.

Even her final strike by putting her weight on it was deflected to the side.

He didn’t miss the moment when her posture was disturbed.

He raised his wooden sword and struck it hard sideways.

Whoosh–!

With her amazingly fast reflexes, she narrowly avoided the attack by bending her waist.

I took a deep breath and held the wooden sword again with trembling hands.

‘That attack just now…! It’s almost dangerous…!’

But without even having time to catch his breath, he started swinging his sword again persistently.

A large horizontal cut, a quick vertical cut, and even a stab attack that flies at very high speed in between.

Han Yun-seo was confused as to what the hell this was all about.

Every time I blocked an attack, I felt my arms go numb and my strength drained away.

‘What kind of man… has this strength…!’

As soon as it started, the audience expected Han Yun-seo to win an overwhelming victory.

Instead, contrary to expectations, exclamations flowed out every time Han Seo-jin fiercely swung his sword.

And among them, Han Tae-woo’s expression was completely rotting.

Yuri Lee looked at him with a nervous expression.

The matriarch was watching his movements with interest with narrowed eyes.

Crumbling— Gn—-!

The ends of the sword and sword collided, forming a union, and a struggle of strength took place with the blades facing each other.

When the youngest son was on the defensive, he looked at him with embarrassed eyes.

Han Seo-jin spoke to her with a relaxed smile.

“We haven’t even started yet…!“

“Me too… I didn’t say this was full power…!“

After pushing him away with the back of the knife and taking a step back at the same time.

Han Yun-seo took a deep breath and held the sword tightly.

Then, a white aura flowed from her body and her entire body began to glow brightly.

Light flowed from the eyes, and those creepy cold eyes stared at Han Seo-jin.

‘It’s finally come…’

[Sword Demon] Han Yun-seo.

At the end of Season 3, she came back to life as an undead and faced the enemy beyond the gate.

A blade forged from the highest quality steel can cut through anything.

The day I fought with her, a genius swordsman who was revived through necromancy.

My colleagues and I were dangerously crossing the border between life and death.

The most troublesome of her skills was [Body and Sword Unity (Body and Sword Unity)]

As a genius in swordsmanship, she attacked as if she were one with the sword, moving her movements as if she were not human.

He inflicted countless damage and took down his comrades one by one.

What I encountered that day was not my young and thin youngest brother.

He was literally a [sword demon] that all humans feared.

When I barely managed to subdue her.

She spoke to me in a faint voice.

“Onii-sama… Onii-sama… please… kill me…”

Maggots flowed from her already rotten body.

In her mind, which she managed to recover just before she died, all she could hear was a sobbing voice consumed by pain.

With a trembling hand, I pulled the trigger and ended her life.

Beyond her vocal cords where bugs were eating away,

Her beautiful voice came out, albeit faintly.

“I’m sorry… Onii-sama… I didn’t want to hurt you…”

“…Rest in peace. the youngest.”

Han Seo-jin glared at Han Tae-woo, who was in the audience.

You made that innocent youngest child look like that

That will never happen this time.

“Sparring… Where are you looking… Brother…!“

She leapt in an instant and struck Han Seo-jin with her wooden sword.

Powerful sword energy flew out like an explosion following the beautifully swung path of the sword.

‘With this…! It’s over…!’

The sword energy swung precisely at him hit his upper body hard.

Han Seo-jin was pushed back and his shirt was torn to shreds.

The trajectory of the sword flying towards him hit him hard in the abdomen.

puck!!!

“Pfft…!“

The moment she thought it was all over

Even though blood flowed from his mouth, he did not collapse,

He immediately corrected his posture, raised his sword, and leaped towards her in an instant.

The expression of the other person reflected in her eyes in a split second

He already had a victorious smile on his face.

“Slash!“

bang!!!

A blow so powerful that it was unbelievable that it was human power was swung at Han Yun-seo.

She belatedly raised her wooden sword and blocked the attack with all her might.

A level of power and speed that is completely different from previous attacks.

‘He’s a man… but he has this kind of power…! This doesn’t make sense…!’

“It’s not the end yet… It’s a continuation!“

Blue flames flowed along his sword body.

“Slash!“

The attack struck again with ridiculous speed.

Quagga gagagak…!

“Ugh…Ugh…!“

Her wooden sword was bent so hard that it was on the verge of breaking.

I barely managed to block his attack, but

It seemed like she was having a hard time even standing properly anymore.

‘But… it’s not over yet…! With that technique just now, my brother’s magical power has already been reduced by now…!’

“Leap, and…“

He quickly somersaults backwards and lands on the floor.

He brought the wooden sword to his waist and began to exhale.

Blue flames flowed from the small open mouth.

At that moment, blue flames began to flicker from the ordinary wooden sword he was carrying.

‘That… no way… no, it doesn’t make sense… that legendary technique… it couldn’t have happened…!’

After catching his breath, Han Seo-jin raised his wooden sword and at the same time jumped, kicking the ground with the soles of his feet.

“Ilsom (一闪).“

With thunder and thunderous thunderclaps

All the lights in the rental room went out momentarily.

Han Seo-jin, who rushed at the speed of light, swung his wooden sword and struck her five times in succession.

Wrists, ankles and head.

Ride, ride!

“Kkkk…!“

In an instant, simultaneous blows hit her without her having time to react.

Han Yun-seo’s legs were completely relaxed and she knelt on the floor.

dump…

Her half-broken wooden sword was in Han Seo-jin’s hand.

He swung the wooden sword, put it in his belt, and stood in front of the youngest.

“It was a great fight, youngest. But this time it’s my victory.“

She looked up at him, smoothing her numb wrist.

He was compared to the second child, Han Tae-woo, every day.

A man of little significance became a master of swordsmanship without even realizing it.

He even used Ilseom, which was said to be a legendary secret technique.

She lived with the sword for over 10 years and never took it off even when eating.

She, who was recognized by everyone as a genius, was defeated by her own brother.

Although she had tears in her eyes, she held his hand and stood up.

Because right now his face is more dazzling than anyone else’s.

His trustworthy appearance reminds me of the face of my father who suddenly left.

She stood up, controlling her emotions with a mature mind that was unbecoming of her young age.

And we shook hands to acknowledge him.

“I learned a lesson, brother… It was really… great.“

“Yes, you had great skills too.“

Han Tae-woo, who watched all of this, crumpled his sunglasses in his hand.

Just like the expectations he placed on his youngest child, which were completely shattered.

“What the fuck…“

‘No… no… not this…’

The youngest who has invested a lot of money so far.

The genius swordsman who was said to be able to defeat even the firstborn, according to the prophecy he received from the organization.

To be defeated by that insignificant piece of human trash.

It’s not like I was lucky enough to succeed in one attack as per the conditions.

A one-sided landslide victory that even resulted in disarmament.

‘Han Seo-jin… you bastard… how dare you…’

He took out a vial from his pocket, and it was purple and vibrating strongly.

Even if he gets kicked out.

There was still a chance to achieve the most important goal.

His own mother, who is now looking at Han Seo-jin with a satisfied expression.

As long as she poisoned her car, she could avoid being kicked out of the organization.

As he boasted, he will be kicked out of the family.

If I could just stay in the organization, there was still a way to get those assets back.

He gave a signal to his subordinate with a wry smile.

The waiter next to the matriarch nodded and began mixing the purple liquid in the teapot.

——-

‘Wow… I almost died…’

If an ordinary man, or even a woman, had been properly hit by her sword energy,

It was so destructive that it was a miracle that he survived.

Right now, it was a disaster because I had already learned [Steel Perseverance], which I got through the gacha.

Otherwise, I would have passed out right then and there, clutching my stomach.

‘It was harder than I thought… but I did it…!’

No matter how much you fly or crawl, it’s ultimately a fight between level 2 and level 1.

Considering the absolute training period and swordsmanship proficiency, I was at a much disadvantage.

The attacks she suffered until she died that day.

As a result, I spent two days in the basement making wooden dolls, remembering that pattern and her habit of swinging the sword.

I was able to achieve victory in my target spar with Han Yun-seo.

I wiped the sweat from my forehead and looked at Taewoo Han.

I saw him nodding his head with a wicked smile.

As I looked in the direction, I saw an employee pouring poison into a teapot.

‘bingo.’

I immediately opened the skill window and strengthened the [Poison Resistance F] skill.

‘Just in case… I’ll have to raise it to level D.’

No matter how careless he was, it was clearly a poison of the highest order if it could even corrupt the head’s body and mind.

If the [Sturdy F] level skill from earlier was barely enough to withstand the youngest’s sword attack,

I felt like I should invest enough 2 bond points to be safe.

‘If I die here, it’s really the end.’

[congratulations! Poison resistance skill has become D grade!]

I put the wooden sword down on the floor and walked towards the head of the family.

Now it was time to add some highlights.

“The winner of this sparring is… Han Seojin!!!“

He proudly proved his skills by breaking everyone’s expectations.

Everyone clapped and cheered except for Han Tae-woo’s treacherous officials.

“It doesn’t make sense…hey hey, I believed it! Seojin Han!“

“Kya~~ Cool~~~!“

“Hmph, I guess I just got lucky. Everyone is making a lot of fuss.“

“What are you saying, this guy? You just said you won that one by luck? My eyesight is completely wrong.“

I stood next to the matriarch, adjusting Ourobors’ ring.

She also winked at Yuri Lee, who was standing next to her.

‘It was really cool, master..!’

I felt like I could convey her feelings just by the sparkle of her red eyes.

The matriarch looked back at me gracefully with a very satisfied expression.

“I think my body… It wasn’t just that I woke up in a short period of time… I also felt like my level had increased. Is my guess correct? Son?“

As expected, this woman could not be fooled.

Those eyes full of insight that seem to see through everything.

Even until the end, when the head of the family lost his temper, he remained my colleague.

I was able to realize again how fortunate I was.

“Ahaha… I guess you can’t fool the matriarch’s eyes.“

I smiled and held her hand and shook it.

While everyone was shouting and cheering, the staff brought her tea.

“Excuse me. We will prepare tea for you.“

A cup of red tea was poured from a silver teapot.

The employee tried to leave as soon as the tea was poured.

“Wait.“

I grabbed the employee’s wrist and raised the head’s glass instead.

“What kind of car is this? This is my first time seeing it.“

“Ah, this is… the round tea that the association sent me as a gift this time…“

Cold sweat formed on her forehead and her eyes began to flutter.

I chuckled and poured another cup of tea.

“I see… Well, I’d like to treat you to a cup of tea for all your hard work making it.“

“Ahaha… There is no need to do that…“

The matriarch narrowed her eyes and looked at me.

Instead of answering, I smiled quietly and nodded to the matriarch.

“I’m sorry to you, but would you please allow me, the winner of the sparring match, the opportunity to become a queen? “

“Hehe… It may seem unexpected to be the winner’s wish… but I can’t bear to refuse the request of my son who looks happy. “

I handed the employee a cup of tea and raised the cup.

And he spoke so softly that only she could hear.

“It would be better to decide quickly. Will I live my whole life as Han Tae-woo’s loyal dog, or…“

Then he brought the tea to my mouth.

“Even now, let’s reflect and live a new life.“

The employee’s hands were shaking and he eventually lowered his head.

I drank the warm tea in one go.

——-

‘What is that bastard doing now…?’

Han Tae-woo looked suspiciously at Han Seo-jin, who suddenly approached the head of the family.

Could it be that they have already figured out the poisoning plan?

And are you trying to accuse her?

That couldn’t have been possible.

No, that couldn’t be possible.

That guy wasn’t there when his father and his dirty mother were poisoned.

Of all the people in this world, those two died from poison.

Only two people knew, the organization they belonged to and themselves.

Even when an autopsy is performed on a corpse, the poison’s ingredients are already decomposed and disappear.

But according to the antics he showed now,

Perhaps he also knew that the tea was poisoned.

What if he was that bastard who even defeated the genius prosecutor he raised with so much of his wealth?

If it’s Han Seo-jin, who came here on purpose to ruin all of Han Tae-woo’s plans.

An eerie intuition crossed my mind that such a ridiculous idea might be possible.

‘Holy shit… I have no choice but to stand out now…’

At that moment.

Han Seo-jin suddenly poured a cup of tea for his subordinate.

I saw him gulping down the tea in one go.

‘What… what is this, you bastard…?’

“Kuhuheook…! Cough…cluck…!“

As soon as Han Seo-jin drank the tea, he fell to the ground.

In an instant, all eyes focused on him witnessed the scene.

This fact was conveyed to everyone present.

Someone poisoned the tea that the family head was drinking.

And unfortunately, the fourth son, who had just won in sparring, drank it instead.

“No one moves!!! Any bastard who moves is a culprit from now on!!!“

At that moment, Han Ji-ah got up from her seat and ran to the matriarch’s side.

When she touched the necklace, a nano suit appeared and her entire body was covered in black plate armor.

The gauntlets on both hands began to flicker with red flames.

‘What kind of windfall is this… I was planning on poisoning that bastard later… but I never thought I’d get caught like this…’

Han Seo-jin was rolling around on the floor with her face turning purple.

The maid standing next to him looked embarrassed and didn’t know what to do.

‘This is the end, Han Seo-jin. Even though I lost a lot… you won’t be at the New Year’s party next year… so I can go ahead with my plans then.’

Han Tae-woo covered his mouth with his hand and laughed at him.

I was confident that I would win by luck.

The expression of the subordinate standing next to me turned blue in an instant, but

Little things like that weren’t important.

Just he is right now, in this place

Because I planned to slowly savor this scene of that piece of trash struggling to death from the poison.
