2nd Round Villain - 2nd Round Villain chapter 94

94 – – 100, Wall Crossers – 4

Beatrice Constantino swallowed back the sticky liquid in her mouth. A bitter pain ensued as I returned what had been rising inside me until just now.

The first time she faced a dragon named Nidhogg, she had a hunch of victory, although her whole body was terrified. Even if it’s a fierce and equal fight, you will win in the end.

It was because Beatrice herself was fully aware of her own strength. Although she borrows Oscar’s demonic energy, Beatrice also has her own strength and vast divine power. Beatrice considered herself the strongest combatant in the party, excluding Oscar.

Of course, even objectively, Beatrice was strong. If I went out to the continent right now, I could cut down anyone except the absolute strong. In the past, when I made a contract with Lucifer, the devil of arrogance, I had a record of beating that ‘absolute strong’.

However, Nidhogg was not an existence that Beatrice could carelessly dismiss.

“A mere human would dare to block this body! How proud you are!”

Kwak Kwa Kwa Kwam-!

Níðhöggr. A being of destruction that grew by eating the roots of Yggdrasil, the world tree.

It is said that Nidhogg, who was born with as many as four attributes, poisons the trampled ground with every step he takes. It spreads death and plague wherever it goes.

Even though he was promoted as the next Dragon Lord, it was for that reason that he was taken over by the Dragon King. Nidhogg was despised, hated, and feared by all races on the continent, and there were many opinions that he did not fit the position of a dragon lord, who should be respected and respected by everyone.

Even if it is, no matter how strong one’s might is.

Dragon King Endros felt sorry for Nidhogg and suggested that he come to the Demon Forest. Nidhogg did not reject the call of an existence that was no different from the ancestors of dragons. Since then, Nidhogg has disappeared from the continent.

“Something like a lizard… Kut!”

“You bastard, you’re just running away from lizards!”

Kwajijik-!

A beam erupted from Nidhogg’s four heads, destroying everything in its path. Beatrice dodged the beam, leaning on her loose legs.

A red cut had already been drawn on his left shoulder. Her whole body throbbed whenever she moved, but Beatrice was constantly moving in order to survive.

“Take a break! I mean, back up your attitude that was only yours!”

“damn… !”

Evil flowed between his lips. In my mind, I wanted to rip that Nidhogg’s face in half right away, but her body was so exhausted.

It is engulfed in a sea of fire and poison on all sides. At the very least, in order for the name ‘fight’ to be established, they had to launch an attack together, but Beatrice was only suffering one-sidedly from Nidhogg.

Nidhogg is a dragon with excellent magical abilities. If Beatrice tried to get closer, she would immediately use teleport to catch her back or limit her speed.

“Lightning-!”

Paji Jiji-!

Flashes of lightning fell from the overcast sky. Beatrice’s head hit her directly before she even recognized it. A thrilling electric current ran through her body, and Beatrice was overcome with pain. A high-pitched scream spread.

“Keuk, ugh… .”

Beatrice used the sword stuck in the ground as a staff and barely managed to fall, but her physical condition made it virtually impossible to fight. It was like a cornered mouse.

‘What a pathetic piece of sh*t this is.’

Beatrice lifted her head with difficulty. He was so exhausted that he couldn’t even lift a finger, but in the sky a four-headed dragon flapped his wings and was alive and well.

‘After boasting that he would fight Nidhogg alone… You don’t have the face to see your lord.’

The cold grip of the greatsword felt unusually heavy today. It wasn’t my mood.

Even if she tried to draw the sword again, it was impossible for her trembling arm muscles.

‘It’s over… The poison has already penetrated your body. Further resistance is meaningless.’

It’s a hopeless situation. Hope was just an invisible dream. It seemed that Oscar had always encountered a ‘difficulty’.

Beatrice tightly closed her eyes. Then, I tried to tighten my grip again, but the sword could not be pulled out. Instead, a demon’s mask passed through my mind.

Although he sometimes showed his ‘face’, Oscar always wore a mask. Even when sleeping or eating, I lifted the mask slightly and ate under it.

The knight recalled what the master had quietly whispered.

‘Sir Beatrice, of course, everyone faces difficulties in life.’

‘hmm… Difficulties are called obstacles because we eventually have to overcome them, but there are cases where the difficulties are so high that we cannot overcome them. If I were to look at Beatrice now and say ‘Take down the world’, that would of course be impossible, wouldn’t it?’

‘If it’s my lord’s order, I can try.’

‘… It’s okay if you don’t. I have no intention of damaging this beautiful world. Anyway, when you encounter such an impregnable obstacle, think of what lies behind your honor.’

‘yes?’

‘Why, there is such a thing. The story of a mother who met a man with a knife while walking at night with her young son. Between the future of abandoning their son and running away, and the future of fighting with their son behind their back, most mothers choose to fight.’

‘Why would you? Because you can’t back down. There is a valuable thing behind your back that you must never run away from, so even if you die, face it and see.’

‘Of course, the result of that reckless act is usually a miserable death. but… Only one out of a hundred can come out. A mother who subdues the assailant with superhuman strength and returns safely with her son. There are miracles in this world.’

A blazing bonfire. Eyes shining black in the mask. The appearance of talking excitedly while eating venison… . At the time I heard the story, I thought I was making a noise again. Because she didn’t believe in miracles.

A miracle is a blessing from God. It is a ray of grace bestowed by God, who has pity on those who have tried the most. But Beatrice abandoned God long ago. The Pope, who believed in the Lord more than anyone else, on the day his father died, realized that although there are demons and angels, the Lord does not exist.

‘But, I have a little doubt.’

‘In such a story… What is truly valuable?’

‘Is it the Lord who gave salvation in an emergency?’

‘Or is it the sublime maternal love of a mother who has to protect her son without running away even though she is almost certain to die?’

“… mind.”

The driver muttered at the changed voice. The closed eyelids slowly opened. The knight’s eyes gleamed with determination.

“You can’t back down.”

As advised by the lord, the knight thought of it. Even in a bleak situation where there is no hope, what you are carrying on your back. The reason why it should never fall apart.

“In the first place, I had no choice. The right to freely choose something like renunciation, I gave up everything on the day I was appointed as a knight of my lord.”

A demon who wears a white mask and behaves smirkingly, but loves himself. A bit rough but cute wolf girl. A foolish but trustworthy human king. An angel who is foolish and clumsy, but gradually grows up. A dignified and admirable goblin for his age.

If you can’t stop Nidhogg here, Nidhogg’s venom will reach them.

So, who can stop Nidhogg?

“… No, it is a future that should not be considered.”

block Block it no matter what. Become the heart of a parent who sits down for a child, embraces the heart of a soldier who went to the battlefield for his country, and defends it.

Throw away the thought that you can’t stop it. This is what must be done, and what must be done.

“I’m beheading Nidhogg.”

sereung-.

The divine power that arose from somewhere pulled out the great sword that was deeply embedded in the ground. There was a considerable amount of blood on the handle, but the hand wrapped around it did not tremble.

The knight got up on his knees. A frightening sight still stretched out before her, but there was no reason to hesitate now.

Wow-!

Make sure to read from noble mtl dot com

Just in time, Nidhogg, who had gathered enough energy, let out a breath. A breath capable of blowing down an entire mountain pierced Beatrice.

In response to that, Beatrice.

He swung a single sword.

fit-.

Neat action with no fuss. It was a cool and quiet flash, unlike the somewhat violent and violent one until now.

“… ! Breath!”

The breath that touched the island split in half. As if he wasn’t satisfied even after cutting through that gigantic breath, the flash went beyond the breath. Nidhogg quickly lowered his head. A flash of light flashed over Nidhogg’s head.

Blood flowed down the sides of the dragon’s ears. Nidhogg rolled six of his eight pupils to examine the wound. It was a minor wound, but it could not be ignored.

It means that the current knight has the ‘power to kill a dragon’. unlike before. It was the first wound Nidhogg suffered in this fight.

Nidhogg’s eyes looked down. A small human who had blown his sword and cut his breath and even injured himself was staring straight at him holding a sword.

Although, if it had been a few minutes ago, it would have felt very cheeky.

“Ha ha ha ha ha!”

Not anymore.

“A will that never breaks! You have reached the point where you can sublimate that will into a sword skill!”

“… .”

Surrounding the human sword, the brightly shining energy proved it. It was much brighter and darker than the normal flag.

“You humans call that a sword-gang, don’t you?”

“… Be still.”

“In other words, it is also called the Sword Master! Another absolute strong has been born in the world!”

absolute strength. A word that refers to a person who has reached a state that transcends that species regardless of all species.

A human stronger than a dragon. A human who opposes God. When an individual can become the power of a country.

The world calls such a transcendent strong man an absolute strong man. And right now, Beatrice Constantino stepped up to that absolute powerhouse.

“It’s easier to cut if you stay still.”

The determination to never lose and the belief that he was a knight of his lord were sublimated into power. Beatrice fired the sword without the slightest anxiety. Full of a firm determination to win this duel unconditionally and pronounce the tragedy of defeat to the enemy.

Shuaaah-!

“However! It is the same with this body that has reached the absolute! You can’t be beaten that easily!”

“Your doctor is not important. The only thing that is certain is that I will win.”

Nidhogg fired four breaths at the same time. Perhaps because the energy contained in each one was a tremendous wave, even though they clashed with Beatrice’s sword, they were not in vain like before.

The fight between the two was evenly matched. Beatrice constantly flew swords, the higher concept of swordsmanship, and Nidhogg attacked Beatrice with all sorts of disasters while harmonizing the world.

Beatrice’s greatsword was dyed white and black. As the divine power and magic mixed together, the sword became more fierce. However, the energy did not flow indiscriminately. It was because Beatrice’s terrifyingly firm mentality had tightly bound her energy.

“Haap!”

“Crw, wow, wow!”

Both Beatrice and Nidhogg felt the pressure of resisting a waterfall. However, unlike Beatrice, who faced resistance only with blind faith, Nidhogg predicted victory objectively.

‘amazing. I never thought I would cross the wall in that short bird. If it was a dragon other than me, that person would have become a dragon slayer long ago.’

‘But I’m sorry for me. Right now, the situation seems similar, but in the end, there is a limit to the amount of energy that can be contained as a human being. Compared to Dragon Heart… It’s not enough.’

‘Soon there will come a moment when you run out of energy. Until then, you just have to be patient. It’s a bit tight, but this level of energy is enough to deal with… .’

That was when I was thinking about it.

Kwa-kwa-kwa-!

At that very moment, the ‘magic’ that Beatrice emitted suddenly grew as if it were about to explode. Her divine power was so great that it was incomparable.

It suppressed the divine power and engulfed the sword in complete darkness, and it grew larger and engulfed the sky.

No, it wasn’t the darkness that came from the sword. Suddenly, the sky was covered in pitch black darkness. It couldn’t even be compared to the few pieces of dark clouds that Nidhogg called out.

Kwak Kwa Kwa Kwa Kwam-!

Beatrice’s demonic energy, which grew at the same time, swallowed Nidhogg. It was only a single blow, but after accepting that single attack, Nidhogg’s whole body was crushed and his breath stopped.

“Uh, what… ?”

As if she hadn’t even thought that this level of energy would be possible, Beatrice was startled when she saw the ink-colored sword in her hand. From her whole body, demonic energy that could not be captured was gushing out and rising like a haze.

“What happened to my lord… !”

A cold sweat ran down his spine. Beatrice’s gaze turned to the northern sky.

As long as the Dragon King Endros resides there, the sky should always be clear.

It had turned into complete darkness.
