Solo Swordmaster

Episode #168. Do you think I’m late?

* * *

When you hear a loud bang.

Tata closed her eyes and thought.

finally say

It wasn’t that there was no anxiety.

Because Limon came too sooner than originally foreseen, and after drawing the sword, his foreknowledge continued to waver.

But that was a futile worry.

As long as the filming site is blown up and there is a catastrophe with casualties, there will never be a music challenge broadcast again.

Limon would never allow her to do this, but it didn’t matter.

As traitors, they did it on their own, so Limon wouldn’t hold Ainsha guilty.

The only thing left now is to die.

With that, the foresight is complete.

The predetermined future comes true.

The ending of Limon’s relationship with Ainsha.

To create that future, Tata could die happily.

Because she was the only nanny and family member of Ainsha, a member of the White Dragon clan who could dedicate everything for the princess she respected.

“…?”

But while waiting for the end.

Tata felt something strange and opened her eyes again.

And, without realizing it, he made a dumbfounded expression.

“Are you all surprised?”

“In line with your expectations, this time we start with a loud celebration!”

“Challenge together!”

“Music~ Challenge!”

Clap clap clap!

Obviously the bomb exploded.

Far from collapsing in the heat, the filming site was flawless and the audience applauded without knowing anything.

And the calmly started broadcast and the moderators made Tata unable to close his gaping mouth.

“why?”

Tata muttered in dismay.

The one who answered her words was Limon with a cold sneer.

“I’m too late…. Do you want me to tell you something interesting?”

“…”

“When I asked how you found out you were here. You said you wanted to hear the complicated reason.”

Tata remembered.

The attitude of Limon, who had strangely kindly explained the process of chasing him.

And the two options he presented before giving the answer.

“But I had a simpler answer.”

Complex answers and simple answers.

Among them, Limon revealed the latter in a calm tone, which Tata had not had a chance to tell because he had chosen the former.

“You knew it from the start.”

“…what do you mean?”

“It means that even if I didn’t have to search for clues one by one, it was possible to follow your signs.”

“…!”

Watching Tata open his eyes wide at the unexpected answer, Limon smiled.

He is the Sword Master.

He was a superhuman who had the power to chase down even the demons who had fled to the other side of the globe.

I don’t know if I’ve never seen it.

If he wanted to pursue Tata, who was even following him in the first place, it would have been enough to take only three steps from the beginning.

“Then why do you think I came so late?”

That’s when Tata realized.

Limon and Ainsha thought they came too soon.

But in reality, they only showed up here after wasting enough time.

“What do you think was the reason for me to be with you when you deliberately tried to pass the time and listen to complicated answers unbecoming of the White Dragon clan?”

…And that he wasn’t the only one trying to pass the time.

* * *

Kwa-gwa-gwa-gwang!

[Wow, it explodes spectacularly.]

Right at the moment when a roar erupted from the filming set.

Yuna-kyung marvels at the exploding bomb, lighting colorful fireworks in the gradually darkened sky.

Li Qingyu calmly praised her for her work.

“You worked hard.”

[What’s the point of suffering? It’s just me, I just took out the ones I was there while the team leader was paying attention.]

“But it’s not easy to secretly take out that many bombs.”

[If you put it like that, the trouble that the princess sister went through to find out the location of the bomb is greater.]

“No, it’s just me asking a few questions.”

Li Qingyu chuckled.

And a corner of the rooftop where Yuna-kyung came out to send the bomb she collected into the sky and explode it.

He looked at the Shinryong crew members who were sitting there with dazed faces with eyes shining brightly like obsidian stones and continued talking calmly.

“To be fair, it is thanks to these people and others who kindly responded.”

and beneath their feet.

Even on the set, there were whispering stories going around.

“PD-nim, wasn’t the effect too excessive for that explosion? It’s not like a bomb explodes…”

“This is the investor’s intention!”

“Oh, then you have to.”

“If you know, don’t worry about anything else, and take care so that broadcast accidents do not happen again. If there is a problem this time, our broadcasting station will be blown up!”

“Ha ha ha, it can be. Could it be that broadcast accidents happen twice in a row?”

When PD Kim Seung-joon is so absorbed in broadcasting.

In some places far away from him, there were people who were busy with other things.

[Team 1 has nothing more than a target to defend.]

[Team 2 has nothing more than a target to watch.]

[There was an attacker from the White Dragon clan who was aiming for the target for team 3 escort, but they subdued it in advance.]

[Team 4…]

The man who listened to the communication in silence.

Wang Lun, the new head of the Shanghai royal family, who was newly appointed as the Guardian’s security team leader, said in a firm voice.

“Don’t be alarmed. Think that the fate of our Shanghai royal family will depend on how successfully we finish this job.”

* * *

“You’d better let go of the idea that taking more time would make a difference.”

“…You said you knew? entire?”

“okay.”

Even bombs that were planted.

Even the raiders who had been kept aside.

Even the plot to stop broadcasting by killing officials or destroying facilities.

Limon calmly says that everything has already been dealt with according to the number he prepared before coming here.

“How can you, who has no foresight…!”

“Even if you don’t have that foresight, this much is possible, you idiots.”

Tata licked his lips.

Even she, who accepted death calmly, couldn’t hide her shock that all her plans had gone awry.

Limon, who snapped at him, looked at Tata and the White Dragon clan with cold eyes and continued.

“You see the future too fragmentarily.”

“….”

“Always see the future and move only to realize the foreknowledge. I don’t think about the process or why that really matters.”

All of the White Dragon Clan are the same.

He predicts several futures and repeats his foresight to reach the future he wants.

Wearing, eating, talking, and behaving as you saw in your foreknowledge.

In the end, it might not be a bad choice. Anyway, it’s a way to get the best future you want.

However, they do not worry because the best future has been decided.

why are you saying this

Why are you imitating these feelings?

Why does this action lead to its consequences?

All thinking is stopped and you just follow the process that you don’t know why.

“So you’re making a fool of yourself every time you try to change the future.”

When you foresee the future, you can perfectly respond to any situation.

Because I know what to do.

But when you can’t foresee the future, all your actions go awry.

Because I don’t know what to do.

Just like a student who gets 100 points right after reading the answer with fanatical cheating skills, if he can’t cheat, he has no choice but to close his eyes and take the answer.

“Even with the idiot mindset that if you eliminate the bad outcomes, the rest of the future will be the same.”

If you kill the villain who will commit a crime in the future, you just believe that the future will be better.

It does not take into account the possibility that the brother of a good villain will become a more terrible villain because of his vengeful spirit.

They do not understand that many people who were able to survive with the technology born in the process died because they interfered with the development of dangerous weapons.

The future is fixed for them.

Because it didn’t change on its own until you saw it and chose it.

Believing that the future will not change, but acting contradictory to try to change it, I have no choice but to be a fool.

“Because I know that, I purposely pursued you step by step.”

Limon was cold and cynical.

If he had come to Tata right away, the terror would have succeeded.

Because she knew of the future in which Limon would kill her, she plotted terror on the premise of being discovered.

However, Limon deliberately and tenaciously followed her clues.

It is to gather the cause and process of Tata neglecting to act based only on the results, just as he burned the bag he received from Moon Chun-yeop without even opening it.

The result is this.

It was a reality that even the result of success was blown away because the middle process was all blocked.

“How are you? Do you still think I came too late to stop you?”

“…”

Tata kept silent with a face that seemed lost.

Words like Limon’s blade.

Even this reality that wisdom has changed.

All of them were enough to drive her crazy.

And Limondo did not pay any attention to Tatana Shinryongdae.

In the end, all of their plans failed, and no matter how hard they tried, there was no way to achieve their goals.

That was why he swung his sword at Tata.

squeak.

Immediately after the sword light cut through the air.

What fluttered down was a single thread.

Having stopped the male and female beasts from secretly trying to wrap themselves around Tata’s neck, Limon slowly turned around.

And the master who spread the male and female.

Looking at Ainsha, who was standing on the other side of the ceiling with an expressionless face, she smiled coldly.

“Now, you are the only one left.”

“…”

“Do you still have the same idea of executing your nanny?”

“…of course.”

“They betrayed you for you, and in the end, they couldn’t do anything and just fooled around?”

“Anyway, betrayal is betrayal.”

Ainsha bluntly asserted.

Limon smiled as he looked at the figure, like a doll with no emotions.

“It’s good that you’re patient. It’s amazing how you changed the thought of wanting to save your nanny so easily.”

“That and this are different.”

“Okay. It doesn’t seem like much of a difference to me.”

“different. It’s obviously different.”

“If you really want to believe that much, then you want to believe it.”

Limon moved the foot that was holding Tata down and took a step forward.

Then, standing tall between Ainsha and Tata, he stretched his sword straight forward and pointed it at her with the tip of the sword.

“If you can’t understand it with words, you just have to teach it with your body.”

Limon with a cold smile and Ainsha with an expressionless face.

On the filming set covered in bright lights and loud noises, the two of them crossed their eyes and maintained a calm silence.

So Limon drew his sword.

The moment Ainsha opened her hand.

The mighty psionic storm collided with the frighteningly sharp blade.
