Overpowered Sword Chapter 121

Level up with swords (121)

Kuung.

The last one is pierced by Garlond’s sword and lies on the ground with a pitiful body.

It was the end of a battle that lasted nearly 10 minutes.

It was difficult to destroy due to the material containing mithril, and the combat power of one individual was below that of a swamp troll. If four A-ranks worked together, they could easily defeat it.

Among them, Leon defeated more than half of them with one blow, so the time required for battle was extremely shortened.

《End of battle with 11 Group 8 Crag Mutants. No injuries. After a short break, we will resume the mine raid.》

《Article 11 has been confirmed.》

《Article 14 has also been confirmed! “I did it quickly, hey!”

With Berger’s booming voice flowing through one ear, Leon touched the communication port in his ear and stopped the transmission.

It seemed that the first victory was theirs.

“Let’s rest here for 5 minutes and then move forward again.”

The consumption of 8 trillion was not large.

In the case of Leon, who mastered ‘ball-busting’ and succeeded in killing with one blow, as well as Garlond, who toyed with Craggs with his quick movements, all he did was breathe a little harder and then come back.

Hazel, who only fired low-level magic, and Karen, who focused on keeping things in check with a dagger, had plenty of free time left.

‘There’s no need to rush things too much from the beginning.’

As he made that decision, he looked back at the three people, and before he knew it, all of their eyes were only looking at Leon.

Leon, embarrassed by the sudden attention, took a step back.

“What’s wrong with you?”

Hazel said, her eyes brighter than usual.

“Great! “You can’t believe you’re still a B-Rank because you defeated Mithril Krags in one go!”

Leon didn’t know much, but the Crag Mutants in the Mithril Mine were the main culprits that caused the attackers to waste their strength. It took several hits with magic or aura to defeat it, and the process of extracting by-products was also cumbersome and complicated.

It was rare for many A-ranks to gather together like now, so they were inevitably chosen as difficult enemies.

“Hahaha, as expected of the man who saved me. “I had an idea of your skills from what you showed me at the blacksmith shop, but it’s beyond my imagination.”

Garlond once again gave high praise as if he was surprised.

Since he abandoned his noble status and became a mercenary, he was not jealous even though his military power must have its own stubbornness.

It means that he sincerely acknowledged him as his superior.

“Hehe, if you’re Leon, this much is natural!”

Karen cocked her sassy nose as if the praise was directed at her. Leon burst out laughing at the attitude of a parent receiving praise for his child.

As a result, the atmosphere in Group 8 changed for the better.

‘Well, that’s a pretty good start.’

In just one battle, he gained the trust of his team members and even developed a new application technology.

I think I could give it about 9 out of 10.

[Yes, 8 points.]

El Cid giggled and teased him.

‘Can’t the Demon Sword even read the atmosphere?’

[I feel embarrassed just because I received a compliment. You should have proudly puffed out your chest and been proud to get a 9.]

‘The grading criteria is a bit strange.’

[They were impressed because you are now a B-rank adventurer. If they had known you were a hero, they would have taken it for granted.] It’s

not completely wrong, so it makes me even more angry.

In the meantime, 5 minutes passed and Leon got up after just tapping the hilt of El Cid’s sword a few times.

It was time to resume the mine raid.

* * *

After successfully completing the first battle, Team 8 quickly moved forward and wiped out the monsters swarming within the M13-2 tunnel.

Mithril mine.

In a place where even experienced adventurers could not guarantee their survival if they made a mistake, Leon and the others continued to advance, dealing with the monsters as if plucking the heads of a mature rice plant.

The Crag Mutant, which would normally have been the most annoying, fell down like a scarecrow because of Leon, so I was able to deal with other monsters with ease.

The same was true for the group of dangerous B+ rank Still Ants.

“[Frost, run to the ground and hold on to the horses’ hooves. The bitter cold floating in the sky, run with the wind.]”

As the 5th tier magic ‘Frost Storm’ swept across the ground, it hardened the ganglia within the ant’s legs.

A swarm of ants that had lost their mobility was simply a good target.

Before Leon and Garlond could step forward, a barrage of daggers shot out from Karen’s grasp and pierced their heads.

“Why is it so soft compared to the rocks?”

That was just natural.

Unlike Crags containing mithril, Steel Ant’s durability is at best equivalent to that of steel. Even with that much, I was able to deflect the once, but the opponent was not good.

Assassin Master Karen.

It was only a monster that could not build , but its operational ability itself was not much different.

《Eliminate 32 Group 11 Steel Ants. We will proceed as is.》

《No problem here either! Twelve Crags and Twenty Still Ants! I’ll catch up with you after I get some rest!》

Groups 11 and 14 were also moving along smoothly.

Leon calculated the progress of the strategy in his head and came up with a positive result.

‘We’re already almost halfway. If things continue like this, we will be able to reach the operational area within 3 hours, not 4 hours.’

It is twice as fast as expected at the time of the briefing.

Since I easily defeated the Crag Mutant, I had plenty of power, so I was able to rest for a few hours to recover.

But it is dangerous only when things are going well.

While they were unconsciously relieved and relaxed, a crisis tested the adventurers’ luck. The crisis that came to Article 8 was a monster representing an indefinite form.

Crumbling…!

Without any warning, the ceiling collapsed in Group 8’s path, and silver-colored slime began to flow.

Hazel, who figured out the identity before anyone else, shouted.

“Mythril-Slime!?”

It was a rare yet powerful monster.

Those who have dealt with slimes as beginners often make a mistake, but slimes with a danger rating of A or higher are several times more difficult and dangerous than other monsters of the same level.

Among them, mithril slime was ranked among the top ten.

Risk level considering weight, strength and magic ability is S-rank. It is a being treated as the same as the Cyclops of the Titan Mountains.

“Take care of Miss Karen Hazel!”

“okay!”

As soon as Leon instructed, Karen picked Hazel up with one arm. She was taken aback at being suddenly treated like a piece of luggage, but soon realized that his judgment was correct.

It was right after that.

Kiiiiing―――!

This is because the mithril slime pulled out several tentacles and struck the long ones like a whip.

Unlike the slimes in the grasslands, the slimes in the mines are heavy.

The tentacle whip, which is made of slime containing lead, iron, and mercury, tears through armor just by grazing its path. So, how good is the slime’s tentacle whip made of mithril?

“…That’s ridiculous.”

Hazel, who survived thanks to Karen, stuttered.

No one pointed it out.

It had to be that way.

The Mithril Slime’s four tentacles tore through the mine shaft like it was butter. Sharp as a famous sword. It was the result of the force derived from the enormous weight and acceleration being expressed in a linear form.

“You must not stop it! Avoid it at all costs!”

If you block it, the entire defense will be cut off.

Feeling that Garlond and Karen were agreeing, Leon was the first to light up golden flames all over his sword.

This is an opponent you should not spare your strength for.

‘Cut the flow with one blow.’

If both range and power are allowed to unfold as they wish, they will inevitably be overwhelmed in this space.

It lunges forward as if stabbing a gap with its tentacles.

〈Seven-Star Sword〉 does not work, and 〈Eclipse〉 focuses its power on the cutting edge, so it is not effective against slimes. So, just emit the aura at maximum power and burn the entire body.

“bout!”

In an instant, Leon was in front of the slime and lowered his sword.

Golden sword strike.

As heat energy burns the atmosphere, its trajectory changes into a haze. Although it is inefficient, it has the power to split even a Mithril Crag in two!

Whoops!

However, the holy sword was blocked in the empty air and bounced a long way along with the user due to the repulsive force.

“What?!”

Leon, who managed to keep his balance, opened his eyes wide.

‘The Stigmata of the Watcher’ increases the concentration even further and shows the flow of power that should not be visible. A spherical wave of magical power surrounding the body of a mithril slime.

As it blocked Leon’s sword, its form was revealed, even if only for a moment.

This time, Hazel recognized his talent.

“Force-Field…? “Something like slime uses level 6 defensive magic!”

A 6th rank wizard is an expert level in terms of martial arts skills.

He was superior to anyone except the Master. Hazel also only vaguely learned a few types of level 6 magic, but couldn’t say she could handle it perfectly.

However, that slime manifested the 6th level defensive magic ‘Force Field’ in response to the ultra-fast sword strike.

“Dodge and attack with Miss Karen Hazel! Mr. Garlond, fight autonomously! “Is there a way to break down Miss Hazel’s defenses?”

“no! With that kind of reaction speed, even if you aim for an attack, you’ll block it! “It’s best to focus on one point and break through the defense!”

“understand!”

Leon understood those words and swallowed dry saliva.

All attack and defense.

The conclusion was that in order to attack the mithril slime, there was no choice but to use pure force. Outside the mine, it wasn’t difficult. All I had to do was recharge my strength with sunlight and moonlight and fire the Seven Star Sword repeatedly until all of its slime evaporated.

‘Not here! His attack was so sharp that it only cracked the wall, but my ‘Seven Star Sword’ will destroy the tunnel.’

Leon moved half a step out of the way to avoid the tentacles striking at an incredibly fast speed and swung his sword.

〈Eclipse〉.

The auror compressed into swordplay penetrates the guy’s defense shield.

“Tch…! “It doesn’t work after all!”

Nevertheless, a little of the mucus that touched the tip of the knife flew away, but it was still too far to reach the depth where the core was located.

No matter how many times you try this method, it is impossible.

In return for attempting an attack, it avoids the tentacles that fly in three times in succession, turns once in the air and lands on the ground. Garlond took a step closer and swung his sword, but

boom!

Just like that, he was blocked by the force field and bounced back.

“What an annoying monster! “Even if I cut with all my might, I can’t break it!”

Garlond gritted his teeth, dodged the tentacle whip, and glared at the shield that fluttered from his slash.

The monster’s unique high output strengthens the ‘force field’.

To cut through that shield in one blow, Aura Blade or a 7th level anti-magic spell was needed. If that wasn’t possible, you had to continuously accumulate shock and beat the mithril slime until its magic power ran out.

It was then.

[Really?]

El Cid said harshly.

[You are not inserting the key in your hand into the lock, but you are rubbing it against the chain like a saw.]

‘What?’

[Think. Think about what you can do. How free thinking overcomes the limitations of nothingness. Just because you pick up a spear, you don’t have to just stab, and if you pick up a sword, you don’t have to just cut.]

El Cid said.

What is needed in this current situation?

Leon thought.

‘Power like a hammer that can break the guy’s defense shield…!’

Leon’s eyes became clear as he realized enlightenment.

I look down at the holy sword in my hand.

I recognized that it was myself who was determining the limits and that I could accomplish anything. If you can only stab with a spear, if you can only cut with a sword, you are second-rate.

If you are top-notch, you can hit with a sword and cut with a spear.

“Technology that can destroy Mr. Garlond’s core!”

Leon instructed in a loud voice and placed the sword at the top right.

Not to cut, but to strike.

He changed his posture as if he was holding a club.

“Attack as soon as I destroy that shield!”

Perhaps instinctively sensing a threat from the sound, the Mithril Slime changed its target from Garlond to Leon.

The moving slime shoots out ten thorns.

If the previous attack method was a whip, this attack is a spear.

The slime that penetrates all at once like a phalanx hardens and delivers an impact that can pierce a shield.

but.

Kaang!

With one swing, it cuts off ten tentacles.

Unlike a whip, which retains its strength even when cut, a spear loses its strength when the handle is cut. The hardened slime retreated and scattered on the ground, being roughly trampled by Leon’s steps.

It was Mithril Slime’s mistake.

To stop him, it was much more effective to create a wall by swinging a whip rather than a spear. Unlike the spear, which has an obvious trajectory, the whip has an attack range that a sword cannot control.

‘Not twice.’

Leon raised his sword, determined to succeed in one attempt.

One blow is not enough.

The form to destroy that shield is a serial attack.

“Ha!”

Leon took a deep breath, held his breath, tensed the muscles of his body, and swung his sword.

Kang!

Next, he gathered the into a lump rather than a blade and struck it as if pushing it into the shield. Aura and magical power. Although it was impossible to say for sure which one was superior, Aurors were superior in terms of power density.

Each time it hits, the power of the shield dissipates.

There is no need to swing big. The important thing is to inject the aura. Strike a series of short slashes using only your wrists and elbows.

Cancankcankcank!

When the blade and the shield collide, a wave is generated and spreads out in concentric circles across the surface of the force field.

Once, twice, three times before the wave disappears.

As the aura infiltrating from the outside retaliates, the solid shield cracks, expanding the crack as if resonating with the spreading wave.

Leon’s eyes could see it.

A gap in the shield distorted by exactly 17 hits.

Strike the final blow with all your might into the spot with the Five Ways of

Gongbeop, the soft

form of

Gongpasan, the Wave Crushing Sword, and ….

“Now!”

Leon called out to Garlond, who was gathering strength behind him.

and.

Cheer up!

With a light sound, the shield shattered like a glass wall.

“—Excellent.”

At some point, Garlond, who had concentrated all his auras with his sword hanging at the bottom, responded with an expression of admiration.

“I too will live up to your expectations, benefactor!”

The mystery of the Storm Sword Family unfolds.

A descendant of a great swordsman who was said to have quelled even the dragonspout by swinging a sword from a noble land far away.

The one who inherited the blood and martial arts was Garlond.

The vortex formed on the sword pole is the purification of the storm sword, and the blade of the auror swirls in a spiral.

“Howl, wind!”

Garlond swung his sword while roaring like thunder.

The aura wrapped in a spiral

around the body of

the Storm-Blade, a secret

warrior’s sword, shoots out along the thrust and pierces the defenseless body of the mithril slime.

The penetrating power was incredible, but that wasn’t everything.

The auror, rotating along its path, tore and shattered the inside of the body, rushing to the core hidden in the center of the slime and sinking its fangs into it.

Quick.

The core that produced the dry sound split.

The only and absolute weakness of slime-type monsters. A slime whose core was destroyed melted within a few seconds. This was because it lost the ‘frame’ that held its body together as a monster.

Mithril slime was no exception.

Sigh!

The simple slime-like body flowed down and seeped into the ground, leaving only a large amount of mithril powder on the ground.

That was the end of the S-rank monster Mithril Slime.
