Overpowered Sword

Overpowered Sword Chapter 96

Level up with swords (96)

“…success.”

Kasim’s eyes sank deeply.

Telekinesis.

As someone who had entered the realm before Leon, he knew well how unkind and difficult the power of telekinesis was.

It is completely different from the limbs that are attached from birth.

It was like a third arm or a third leg had sprouted. Since we had to deal with a body that had no nerves, the approach had to take a form that was far from the physical body.

You have to concentrate with all your mind as if you were drawing joints, ligaments, blood vessels, muscles, nerves, and skin on a blank form.

Even if a power transcends the laws of the material world, its realization is bound by the laws. Otherwise, telekinesis would only be wasted meaninglessly and could not exert influence in reality.

《Well, it has to be tricky. ‘Move the mind’ is something that cannot be understood.》

It was just as El Cid had said.

Moving your body is easy. Because senses exist and muscles are attached that respond honestly to signals from the nervous system.

But what about the spirit?

Ordinary people not only do not recognize their own brain waves, but they also do not know where their consciousness originates. It was like being thrown into a maze where all five senses were disabled and told to find your way. It is not for nothing that the training method of telekinesis disappeared into history.

“No matter how well you explain how to flap your wings, a wingless creature will not understand the sensation. The way we breathe through our gills and the way we move our tail are the same.”

Human ears cannot hear ultrasonic waves like bats.

Human eyes cannot see infrared light like snakes do.

Even if they had the same organs, there was a world that could not be understood due to differences in their performance, much less if the presence or absence of those body organs was the domain of different species, there was no need to explain further.

However, telekinesis had to go beyond that realm and reach a horizon that material life could not reach.

“You can do it, if you’re human.”

Nevertheless, El Cid said with confidence.

“I am the pinnacle of the human species. You can do anything that is possible for humans, but you can never do anything that is impossible for humans. The end of human potential. To me, ‘possible’ means that it is an area that can be reached by human hands, regardless of the level of difficulty.”

This was something that Roderick also repeated several times during his lifetime.

What is possible for me is possible for you.

These were not words intended to inspire courage in the helpless, but were simply spoken with true intentions. Some people interpreted those words as humility, while others misinterpreted them as deception.

Rodrik wanted to become a star in the sky.

This is the goal that the human race, where everyone looks at the light and embraces hope, will one day reach.

《…Hmph.》

El Cid laughed as he shook off old memories.

That wish never came true.

Saint King Rodrik was branded as an inviolable great hero, and everyone praised his feats, but did not chase after him or try to challenge him. He was so great that his meaning was not understood.

It was a shabby ending.

“It’s just as I thought.”

Cassim opened his mouth calmly.

“My priest is too much of a disciple for you.”

《What do you mean?》

“They’re not looking up to you, but they’re definitely following you. “I remember wanting that from a long time ago.”

El Cid, who was speechless, fell silent.

It was a relationship that I did not think was a big deal. Because of the goddess, I took on the burden and beat up the guy who was the representative.

That was the extent of their relationship.

Beaten and beaten.

From the beginning, I never expected to talk openly about my heart. Humans were just in awe of him, but there was no way for a fledgling of a race to understand him.

《…Yes, it’s as you said.》

I misjudged that I wouldn’t be able to understand.

“He’s a bit too much for me.”

El Cid rarely spoke in that voice and conceded victory to the student who understood him for the first time.

Giant King Cassim.

A disciple who had thoroughly learned the martial arts he taught half-heartedly and practiced it for 300 years. Until now, he had not considered anyone other than Leon as his disciple, but at this moment, El Cid recognized Cassim as his great disciple.

“No, please correct it to ‘too much,’ not ‘a little.’”

Anyway, Kassim found fault with his words, but…

“Huh!” Huh! “Huh!”

Leon suddenly gasped, breaking up the argument between the two.

It wasn’t something I did intentionally.

Tens of seconds or less than a minute had passed since he manifested his telekinetic powers through trance-like concentration. In that short period of time, Leon’s mental strength was completely depleted.

‘My consciousness is broken.’

The area before my eyes turns black and then brightens repeatedly.

Dizziness and headache.

That intense feeling of fatigue was nothing compared to physical exhaustion. There was nothing else to do but hold on with grit. Because what was consumed by telekinesis was the power of the spirit of perseverance.

“I forgot.”

When El Cid, who had belatedly noticed his condition, began emitting light, Leon’s eyes, which were on the verge of fainting, came back into focus. Even though it is a sacred method, the efficiency of mental recovery is greatly reduced, but it is enough to take a breather.

Leon, who managed to regain consciousness, immediately lay down.

“I thought you were going to die…”

The power that moved the mind directly, beyond the realm of material life, was in itself very alien and dangerous.

To use an analogy, it was like controlling the heart rate.

If you move quickly and loudly, it may be possible to temporarily oversupply your body with oxygen and create explosive movements. However, if you abuse it without knowing its limits and risks, you will one day die from reactions such as rupture of your cardiovascular system.

《Because telekinesis directly consumes your mental power, you immediately lose consciousness when it reaches its limit. It is possible to exceed the limit if you are prepared to suffer permanent damage, but you should not do that.》

“If it is permanent damage…?”

“There may be a partial decline in brain function or difficulty in handling the body. If you are unlucky, you will die.》

Leon trembled at the horrifying story.

The joy of having stepped into a new realm was briefly felt by a chill as if a sharp sword had been pressed to the back of my neck.

El Cid’s voice was not as playful as usual. It was like emphasizing that the indiscriminate use of telekinesis was so dangerous without needing to explain it twice.

“It’s good to give advice, but haven’t you forgotten one thing?”

A deep voice came from over his shoulder and said, covering his shoulder with a large, thick palm.

It was Kasim.

“Congratulations on your achievement, priest. “It must have been a difficult and difficult training, but you persevered well and achieved the results in the end.”

“execution.”

“Put out your chest a little more. “Because you have left footprints on a path that no one has walked on for hundreds of years.”

Cassim’s straightforward words encouraged Leon and soothed his tired mind and body from long training. As a capital punishment, we became quite close, but due to his nature, he was not the type of person to say empty words.

Not to be outdone, El Cid also said something inappropriate. Of course, without Cassim hearing.

[Well done.]

“…Kollang?”

[Why is the boy so hungry for praise!]

El Cid was angry at the unfamiliar situation, but he soon lowered his voice and added a few words.

[Thank you for following along. I’m glad you’re my student.]

“….”

[Did you hear that? Even if you didn’t hear it, you won’t say it twice?]

Leon, who had been silent for a moment, carefully opened his mouth.

“Thank you for following along. Because you are my disciple—.”

[Don’t recite! That lump can hear it!]

“Kkeukkeuk.”

Regardless of the emotion, how many more times will there be a chance to make fun of El Cid like this?

Leon chuckled at the strong reaction, then got up and looked around. The inside of the cave, which had been completely devastated in the process of practicing telekinesis, was not as beautiful as before.

There were dozens of marks where Kasim had hit him and thrown him into the wall, and the number of holes and furrows in the ground was countless.

‘It’s a wonder he didn’t die.’

It was because Kasim’s power control was so exquisite, but that thought did not come to mind when fighting. This is because we kept crossing the precarious point where we had to do our best to survive.

Life and death situation.

The sense of urgency, as if he was dancing with his life on the edge of a knife, drove his mind and body to the edge of a cliff.

“I’m glad it’s not too late.”

El Cid’s words to himself caught his and Kassim’s attention.

“huh? “It’s not too late?”

“Was there a separate time limit? “I didn’t hear it either.”

Then El Cid spoke in an attitude as if he didn’t know why.

《What have you forgotten? Even if you don’t know that lump, Leon, you should have remembered it.》

“What day is today?”

“Not today, but tomorrow. “ It’s your birthday, right?”

“Oh, come to think of it…what’s so important about my birthday?”

As the incomprehensible words continued, Leon scratched the back of his head and asked several times.

Kasim also seemed frustrated as he listened, so he joined in on the conversation.

“Don’t change your mind. “Why are you so anxious to explain something that could have been explained from the beginning?”

《You too, try getting inside the sword. “Can you get through it without even wiping your mouth?”

“I think you were always like that when you were alive?”

El Cid cleverly avoided that point and changed his tone.

“Dude, it’s not even been a year and you’ve already forgotten? It’s Oracle Day.》

“Ah!”

Only then did Leon understand what he was saying and opened his mouth.

Trust Day.

Originally, the role of the hero was given to Rian, so the Holy Sword had to come one year later than his coming-of-age ceremony.

However, El Cid chose Leon as his hero and in return, most of his power was sealed away. And the seal was released tomorrow, the ‘real’ day of the oracle.

“Why would I be in a hurry to practice telekinesis? This is because after the Holy Sword’s seal is released, its recovery power is so excessive that it is difficult to completely exhaust the mind and body.》

“Is the recovery power that much?”

《With some exaggeration, it’s at the level of a troll. It’s not a good thing to cover it up unconditionally, but that penny-pincher doesn’t know that.》

Leon, who let the profane words slip through one ear, was secretly relieved.

If I hadn’t achieved telekinesis, I might have continued to be beaten until my recovery ability couldn’t keep up.

It was truly fortunate that we escaped that attack by just one day.

“It’s the day of the oracle.”

Cassim muttered after hearing those words from next to him.

“Is the goddess coming down to earth?”

“That can’t be possible,”

El Cid firmly denied.

“Do you think the coming of God is as easy as bringing someone’s puppy over? Although I only transmit a very small piece of that power using the Holy Sword as a medium, it may only happen once in hundreds of years.》

Cassim’s blunt face was colored with uncharacteristic regret, and he lowered his large and heavy head.

“It’s a shame.”

“I will take your soul after you die, so just train harder until then.”

“I was going to do that even if you didn’t teach me.”

《To be harsh.》

As always, after finishing the argument, El Cid looked back at Leon.

《I will come as soon as midnight, so be prepared. I don’t think I’m going to test you again now, but that poor nun sometimes does things I never thought of.” As soon as

Leon heard those words, he looked up at the hole in the ceiling.

Red.

It was the sky at sunset. There’s still some time left before the sun sets, but the day will end in just a few hours.

The time has finally come for him to act as a ‘warrior’.

“Is she a goddess?…”

El Cid casually called her a punsu, but it was something Leon could never have imagined.

The only god left in this world to take care of mortals.

Because of her kindness, the world did not fall prey to monsters from outside and was saved from near-destruction several times.

Cassim also nodded, probably thinking the same thing.

“It looks like there’s nothing I can do to help you further. “Would you please convey my thanks to him, priest?”

“Of course, death penalty. “I’ll tell you well.”

“I only trust you. You shouldn’t be rude like that Mangjong.”

After patting him on the shoulder a few times, Cassim left the cave to carry out his duties as King of the Titans.

Only Leon remained, waiting for the moment that was less than a few hours away.

Meanwhile, he thought.

A view of the world in which we will face the events that have resolved the people who have passed by us in the past year.

Time passed.

It was around this time that moonlight instead of sunlight was seeping in through the hole in the ceiling and the stars were starting to shine.

[It is midnight.]

The moment El Cid spoke, a pillar of light fell from the sky.

The pillar, which emitted light so brilliantly that it could be seen from hundreds of kilometers away, precisely wrapped around Leon’s body, isolating the inside from the outside.

Trust Day.

It was a manifestation of power that could only be used once every hundreds of years, when the goddess selected her representatives based on the law of causality.
