Solo Swordmaster

#581. Be honest.

“I owe you a lot.”

“…You really want to go like this?”

“Are there any problems?”

“I’d rather ask why you think there’s no problem.”

A hat that covers the sun.

A thick rucksack on the back.

Even the blood wind that blocks the wind.

A silver-haired woman ready to travel.

Looking at Atastasia, Shu made a complicated expression.

If the place she wanted to go to was a neighboring country, Shu would have sent her away without hesitation.

One problem.

“It seems unreasonable no matter how much I think about going to the other side of the continent on foot.”

“The girl is fine.”

“It’s because I’m not okay.”

Shu sighed when he heard that it was faster to go on foot than by boat or car.

Of course, she also vaguely knew that she was not an ordinary person.

I actually came like this when I came to Africa.

It is, though.

With no eyes or ears.

To cross the continent on foot?

As a common sense person, this was something I couldn’t be willing to accept.

“Wouldn’t it be better to go by plane? Because we can pay for the flight ticket.”

“The girl doesn’t have a passport.”

“Is that going to be resolved when we go to Korea?”

“However, it will be difficult for you two to leave here for the time being.”

“Anyway, about 1 or 2 weeks. So wait a little bit and go back to the Kilimanjaro Autonomous Government together…”

“Thank you for your consideration, but there is no need to do that.”

Anastasia shook her head.

I already received a lot of help from Shu and Umbaru.

It was thanks to the two of them telling her about this broadcast that she finally knew Limon’s location.

I couldn’t be more indebted.

It was because if he formed a deep connection with himself, who was moving away from the attention of the World Federation and the Seven Dragons, it could harm them as well.

Above all…

“The girl cannot wait any longer.”

Now that I know Limon’s location.

I can’t suppress this feeling of wanting to meet him as soon as possible.

Shu, who was watching Anastasia with a sad smile, eventually raised the white flag.

“I can’t seem to stop it.”

“I apologize.”

“I’m sorry, but I’m rather sorry for being so obtuse.”

Shu smiled bitterly.

She and herself are raw.

It was only by chance that we met, and in reality, it hadn’t even been a few days since we met.

Even so, when I saw Anastasia, I felt like I wanted to keep taking care of her.

It wasn’t just because of the eyes and ears.

There was always a sad atmosphere around her.

And whenever he talked about Limon, the longing and sadness that came to his beautiful face made it hard to pretend not to know her.

It’s like watching a kitten that has lost its mother.

What I saw on Suga’s broadcast.

In other words, that’s why he couldn’t bear to say anything about the black-haired girl that Limon embraced and disappeared.

It was because the woman’s intuition knew that if she told her about it, she might feel even more sad because she desperately misses the swordsman.

“Goodbye lady, come anytime if you need any help.”

So say goodbye

Shu prayed sincerely.

I hope she can safely meet the swordsman and achieve what she wants.

That’s the moment a slightly eccentric guest left in Egypt.

It was also the moment when Anastasia’s journey to the distant east began.

* * *

After Limon’s broadcast appearance.

Not exactly after the revelation.

The world has become a hot fire.

Even though he was treated as an outcast, Limon Aspelder was a hero who saved the world many times.

Since it was known that the state took the lead in trying to exterminate such a great man, there was no way it would go smoothly.

Right now, regardless of online or offline, when three or more people gather, they curse at that profanity.

Even countries around the world expressed their regrets.

Even a three-year-old could be convinced that Han Jeong-guk’s life was already over.

However, there are also public opinion criticizing Limon.

This is because it was revealed that more than 100 high-level players were massacred in the process of trying to vomit Limon and failing.

In addition, those who resented Limon’s declaration not to treat himself as a hero poured out fierce criticism.

The result of colliding with those who agreed that it would be worth it if they had been beaten to death.

Currently, communities around the world are in chaos.

but currently.

The culprit behind all this.

In other words, Limon didn’t pay the slightest attention to such confusion.

As he had declared himself in the first place, he did not care whether people praised him or cursed him.

and another one.

Right now, Limon was busy dealing with the woman in front of him.

“so.”

slightly sharp eyes.

Gloomy green eyes.

Pale, bloodless complexion.

A slender beauty who looks as if she would break if touched lightly, yet exudes a dangerous atmosphere as if she had poison inside.

Maia crossed her arms and held a more cynical sneer than usual.

“You mean you finally came to me after fighting such a fierce battle in Africa?”

“No, the injury healed faster than I thought, so I didn’t think I would have to take care of the doctor right away.”

“It’s really amazing that you can even treat yourself. Why don’t you treat yourself from now on?”

“Don’t be so sarcastic, Doctor. Because I am reflecting on my mistakes.”

“I think you are good at talking.”

Limon scratched his cheek.

No matter how well I feel, I had to come and see her at the point where I was injured.

I skipped that and went back to Leviathan.

As a member of the Council before being the princess of the Seven Dragons, it was natural for Maia to reprimand him.

“Mya, don’t be too upset. The swordsman stopped by me for a while because he had something to check.”

Li Qingyu tried to mediate on behalf of Li Mon.

But it backfired.

Seeing her step out, Maia raised her eyebrows even more.

“You mean it only took a few days to confirm?”

“Something unexpected happened…”

“Stop making excuses. You are not without fault at the point of not sending the swordsman to me right away.”

just a few days

but a few days.

From heart attack to stroke.

Even if action is delayed by just a few seconds, it is a disease that can result in loss of life or lifelong aftereffects.

Not to mention, Limon might have had some kind of injury that was hidden from the outside as he fought a fierce battle with three sword masters.

Seeing Maia talking coldly, Li Qingyu finally lowered his head with a bitter smile.

“Yes, I am sorry.”

“…I don’t need an apology. Instead, be careful not to let this happen again in the future.”

“I’ll keep that in mind.”

Was it because it was unexpected that Li Qingyu lowered his head?

Maia, who looked at her with cold eyes, eventually ended her argument at that point.

And he said it out loud.

“Stretch out your arm.”

“Yes, here.”

Limon held out his hand without hesitation.

It was something I was used to as I had already been diagnosed by her several times.

Maia held out her gloved hand.

After grabbing Limon’s wrist.

I closed my eyes and took a pulse.

That moment.

Limon flinched a little.

This is because the strange sensation that started from Maia’s wrist spread through her arm and spread throughout her body.

Similar to what I felt when I was treated with her biomanipulative psionics before.

However, while feeling a strange tickle at the more delicate sensation, Limon quietly entrusted himself to her like a patient.

So…

the silence.

flowed

beyond 1 minute.

After 5 minutes.

to reach 10 minutes.

Maia, who was absorbed in the pulse without a slight movement while holding his pulse, finally opened her closed eyes.

And asked quietly.

“Are you sure Li Qingyu used dragon psionics?”

“I’m sure.”

It seems like you already expected this question.

She nodded without hesitation.

“If I hadn’t intervened at that time, President Han would have died on the spot or become a disabled person, crushed by the emotional response that the swordsman used.”

during the broadcast.

It wasn’t just because Limon used psionics that Li Qingyu suddenly intervened.

It was because he felt that his emotional response was pressuring Han Jeong-guk’s spirit and that he could not suppress it and almost break it.

“The president must have been a high-level player?”

“You’re a level 72 player.”

“They almost turned the player into a crippled person just by using that level of mental communication unconsciously…”

As if he didn’t like something.

Maia raised her eyebrows.

And asked to confirm.

“Li Qingyu, is it possible for you?”

“Honestly, I have no confidence.”

Li Qingyu shook his head.

Mental Induction is the most delicate power among the seven psionics.

It was difficult to read the thoughts of an ordinary person, but against a master or player with some ability.

How much more does a high-level player turn into a crippled person with only mental communication?

It is difficult to guarantee that even the Black Dragon Princess, Li Qingyu, can do so without using the Soul Demonic Spirit.

What does it mean that Limon did such a thing?

After carefully reviewing it.

Maia let go of Limon’s hand.

And instead, he stuck his head out.

straight to his neck.

“…doctor?”

“Stay still.”

Limon, who flinched at the sudden act of pressing his face close to his neck, stopped with a single word.

very slowly

Maia moved.

from the neck to the nape of the neck.

I slip the tip of my nose along his neck from barely touching distance and breathe in quietly.

As if trying to smell his scent in every nook and cranny.

Because of that, Limon was in trouble.

Thanks to her almost burying her face in her own neck, Maia’s thin, white nape was exposed.

and her sweet scent.

Above all, Li Ching-yu’s calm gaze, silently watching from behind, made Roh Kang-ho, who was in a reversal, feel a rare awkward feeling.

how long should it stay like this

The moment Limon was about to ask.

I’m going to go to the middle of the day.

Wet and slippery to the touch.

I lightly stroked the nape of his neck.

“No matter how much treatment this is…”

“As expected.”

Limon, who was about to say a word, hesitated at the action of not only sniffing, but even probing with his tongue.

It wasn’t just because Maia finally got her face off the nape of his neck.

her brief laments.

And the extremely serious eyes made Limon have no choice but to harden his face.

“…Why is that, Doctor?”

Maia didn’t answer that question.

Rather, I just questioned it.

“What have you been doing, Swordsman?”

“What did you do? Of course, I took the Liberation Brigade and fought with the Sword Master.”

“It doesn’t mean that.”

“Then what does that mean?”

“I mean, what did you do that made the dragon psionics so explosively strong that even our princesses were frightened?”

“….”

The scent is thick enough to make you dizzy just by smelling it.

And the taste is more addictive than any drug that goes beyond paralyzing your tongue with just a little taste and even pickles your brain.

I can’t because it’s full of psionics.

It overflows all over the body.

At the end of frowning at the stronger energy that was incomparably stronger than when I first met him, when I could only feel the faint scent.

Maia sneered.

“No, there is no need to ask. The cause is obvious anyway.”

“…”

“So, the swordsman, answer honestly.”

As a princess and a doctor who studied dragon psionics in depth.

Because we know that there is only one factor that can make dragon psionics so strong in just a few months.

Maia coldly took Limon.

Then, looking at Li Qingyu, who was making a complicated expression behind him, asked in a sharp voice like a spike.

“How many princesses have you had relations with so far?”
