Survival Story of a Sword King in a Fantasy World

Kill the Queen (3)

Hollien’s coat glowed blue and began to glisten like metal.

Ryu Han-bin squinted his eyes.

‘You’re using it after all.’

Han-bin also had a habit of checking his opponent’s magic tools before the battle.

He also knew about that blue coat, an instrument of the Transcendental.

[Blue Moon Aurora Coat (Artifact)

It overlays the wearer’s body with the level 125 Aura Armor skill, Blue Moon Aurora. It can be reused automatically when the Blue Moon Aurora is destroyed. This skill lasts until the user is inactive.

Level Requirement: 130. Number of Uses: 19/20 per day.]

Indeed, the performance of the magic tool, which the Transcendental was wearing, was enormous.

It properly complemented the greatest weaknesses of Mages and Spiritists.

Han-bin clicked his tongue.

“I wanted to finish you before you can use that, but I guess it’s not that easy.”

The good thing was that she had no other tools than that coat.

She didn’t wear a Blink ring that everyone else carried.

Since she was the queen of a country, it wasn’t because she had no money…

‘You just don’t feel the need.’

Most magic tools were useless to the Top Three.

They were destroyed at the same time as an overly powerful wave triggered it.

Hollien had also carried many magic tools when she was level 130, but since she was currently over level 150, most of them had been rendered useless. She ignored everything other than the Blue Moon Aurora Coat.

‘But I can’t let my guard down because she might be hiding something inside her clothes.’

It wasn’t a bad situation anyway.

The fact that the Blue Moon Aurora was activated meant that Ryu Han-bin’s Valtara’s Three Swords were threatening enough.

Hollien had confirmed that his blade was dangerous to her!

Maintaining tension, Han-bin kicked against the ground again.

“Taaaaaa!”

* * *

Standing in the everchanging citadel of light, Hollien continued to cast her spiritual arts.

“Wake up, Althea’s warriors!”

Soldiers of light stood up with swords and spears in their hands.

They immediately joined in the battle to protect the castle for their master without any distractions.

Their summoner, the strongest Spiritist on Latna, assumed a stance.

– Spiritual Brilliance: Blazing Moonlight!

A powerful bombardment of light poured down on them like a meteor shower.

However, Ryu Han-bin’s faction wasn’t that easily beaten.

Everyone ran against the wall to avoid the bombardment.

Effir shouted.

“I’ll take care of the little boys!”

She transformed back to her human form and quickly armed and clothed herself.

After all, the speed of her changing clothes was terrifying.

Every time she executed magic swordsmanship techniques, the soldiers of light turned into particles and oxidized.

“Argh!”

“Urgh!”

On the other side, Leon Hart and the other Templar Lords were trying to get behind Hollien.

She came down to the ground so that they could join the battle.

They left the seal to Artis and Kibie and repeated the hit and run tactic in earnest.

The opportunity came again in the battle.

Hollien’s defense, which had been ironclad, shook for a while.

‘Oh, my God!’

Ryu Han-bin didn’t miss the gap.

–

Valtara’s Hack!

The Red Tsunami broke down the citadel, penetrated through the spiritual shield, and reached the Hollien’s body.

Boom!

Hollien activated the Blue Moon Aurora to protect her at the critical moment.

Hollien groaned.

“… urgh!”

She managed to defend herself barely, but she couldn’t maintain her concentration due to the shock.

It also delayed her counterattack by one beat.

– Unique Spiritual Art: Broken Ruptures of Sunset!

A huge pillar of fire struck the land.

It was the original spiritual art of the Transcendental. Han-bin had managed to avoid it with the help of Effir before…

But that time, Ryu Han-bin was able to avoid it on his own.

It was late, and most of all…

“You’re not as powerful as you were before.”

Hollien’s expression was even more distorted.

‘As expected, that damn seal is the problem.’

As the Dea X Apocalypse’s power built up, the efficiency of spiritual arts was gradually decreasing.

‘You stupid Uto Ksarik! What’s the point of being killed by a bunch of commoners?’

Of course, cursing didn’t eliminate the seal.

Hollien was weakening.

Nevertheless, Ryu Han-bin remained vigilant.

‘I’m sure you must have a secret trick.’

The most desirable outcome, of course, was to finish her before she could even use it.

“Keep pushing!”

Ryu Han-bin, with Valtara’s Fighting Spirit enveloping his body, continued to execute swordsmanship techniques.

Effir’s swords swiftly cut down the soldiers, Leon Hart’s boxing broke the citadel, and the five Templar Lords continued to shake and distract her.

They didn’t rush recklessly. Rather, they calmly and constantly repeated attacks and evasions.

All of that was supported behind the scenes by Artis and Kibie manipulating the seal.

‘Oh, my…’

Hollien bit her lower lip slightly.

The collapse of the walls began to exceed the rate of its generation, and the speed of her soldiers’ deaths began to outrun their resurrection.

She made up her mind.

‘I have to do something before it’s too late.’

Its Prana consumption was so huge that she had avoided using it as much as possible, but at that moment, she had no choice.

She began to execute a complicated dance with spiritual spears.

“The Fangs of Light, the Body of Darkness, the Eyes of Fire, the Tears of Water…”

Simultaneously, a blue spirit rose from her whole body as if her energy were exploding.

“Let the power of the six Goddesses bring forth the power of the end!”

Han-bin and his party all froze.

Indeed, a huge Prana was concentrated on one point.

“Oh, my God! She still has that much power?”

“Even though she’s already in the seal…”

“You monster!”

They had to prevent her from using that art.

Everyone rushed to attack her.

But a determined Hollien’s power wasn’t so easily beaten.

Boom!

A shock wave broke out, hitting everyone.

The five Templar Lords flew in unison.

“Argh!”

“Ugh!”

Even Ryu Han-bin and Leon Hart were under terrible pressure.

In the interval, Hollien completed the spiritual art.

– Unique Spiritual Art: The World Devourer!

Four thick legs touched the earth.

Donning a glossy black fur and emitting great energy, its blade-like fangs were exposed, and its red eyes flashed with madness.

A giant wolf of over 30 meters burst into a howl toward the sky.

The roar shook the entire canyon.

Owww!

As Han-bin expected, Hollien had a secret trick left.

Spiritists became the strongest when they had someone to use.

It was the greatest summon of the Transcendental!

“Go forth, Fenrir! Devour everything! Don’t leave even a bone behind!”

Hollien shouted with a triumphant expression.

However, her expression suddenly became strange.

Even Han-bin’s party reacted the same way.

To be exact, among them, the silver-haired girl and the red-haired Mage did.

“Oh…”

“That’s…”

They were neither surprised nor frightened.

However, they didn’t look calm or relieved either.

Hollien was embarrassed.

‘What’s wrong with them?’

Why on earth did they have such strange looks even after they had seen her spiritual beast that had such tremendous power?

Ryu Han-bin smiled as he looked up at the giant wolf in front of him.

His expression was as bright as the sun.

“Hey, you’re a big dog.”

* * *

Hollien was curious.

‘Where the hell did that guy come from?’

She was really, really curious.

‘Where the hell did he live? How come he changed like that?’

It wasn’t just her question.

Kibie and the five Templar Lords had similar questions.

Ryu Han-bin was laughing loudly at the spiritual beast named Fenrir.

“Hahaha!”

The great wolf-shaped summon attacked mercilessly.

It even had a stronger breath than ancient dragons. It attacked with its fangs and chased them with its claws.

Nevertheless, it couldn’t do anything to the small human being.

“So that’s it, huh?”

He cut it again and again.

“I don’t know anything else, but…”

He was beating it mercilessly.

“I have a lot of experience in catching dogs!”

He dug in, cut upward, avoided, and cut downward.

Every time he attacked it, spiritual blood splashed.

“Yaap!”

Along with shouting, Han-bin executed a series of attacks.

His movements were elegant, delicate, sophisticated, and even beautiful.

Every swing was accurate, and every step was perfect. Each movement was professional.

Hollien also kept protecting and healing it as best as she could, but Ryu Han-bin’s attack was much stronger than her assistant.

Artis clicked his tongue.

“Of all the monsters, damn…”

Effir shook her head.

“You chose a giant wolf?”

Argh!

Leon Hart sighed in the roar of the wolf, who was either angry or screaming.

“Ha, that guy, he wasn’t only good at catching dragons.”

When they saw him deal with the ancient dragon Almara, they thought Han-bin was experienced.

They wondered if he had killed dragons before.

‘He hadn’t…’

His movements back then were clumsy compared to the current Ryu Han-bin’s actions!

All he had dealt with over the past 22 years were demon dogs.

No matter how diverse the shape of a demon dog was, they were dogs.

The details naturally went awry.

And Ryu Han-bin didn’t have a delicate fighting sense to correct the gap.

Therefore, he had continued to fight inaccurately.

But that one was different.

– Valtara’s Slash!

It was the same as what used to come at him.

– Valtara’s Pierce!

It was the same as the ones he used to beat nonstop.

– Valtara’s Cross!

Cross Impact, which was triggered based on Valtara’s Three Swords, divided the world.

A loud voice rang out.

“Die, you dog!”

* * *

The spiritual beast, Fenrir, knelt.

Argh…

It threw up ectoplasmic blood and then slowly disappeared.

Hollien fell silent.

“…”

It was a fruitless result.

And it left her in a dire situation.

At that moment, she had less than a fourth of her Prana.

She used up a large amount of Prana to cast her most powerful spiritual art, but it still led to her defeat.

Smiling satisfactorily, Ryu Han-bin looked back at Hollien.

“Now you’re out of power, aren’t you?”

The red warrior rushed to her while shouting.

The Valtara’s Fighting Spirit’s red beam flew into an inevitable orbit.

She closed her eyes tightly as she watched the flood of devastation.

She had consumed too much Prana to summon Fenrir.

At that rate, she had no power to stop that blow.

‘Oh, my God…’

Humiliation surrounded her whole body.

‘I didn’t expect to be driven to this point…’

In a miserable mood, she performed her last spiritual art.

– Unique Spiritual Art: Transcendence!

A flash penetrated Hollien.

There was a great explosion.

Boom!

And…

“What’s that?”

Han-bin’s eyes were wide open with astonishment.

Hollien, standing calmly, was in view.

More accurately, it was the translucent image of her without any defenses.

The Templar Lords spoke in amazement.

“What happened?”

“What the hell did she do?”

Realizing the situation, Kibie murmured in fear.

“Oh, my God, was that possible with a spiritual art?”

Everyone could feel it.

Hollien no longer existed.

Only her fantasy was reflected in the curtain of the world.

“Yes, this is Transcendence…”

Hollien looked down at herself, bitterly translucent.

“It’s my last unique spiritual art, and it goes beyond reality and absence.”
