A Stuffed Cheonma in my Head - Chapter 67



Only Noblemtl

Episode 067. Ice Knight Nari

* * *

I stared into the darkness and sneered.

“I didn’t like it from the beginning. Does a mere sword decide a fight between swordsmen?”

I smiled lowly and drew my sword.

Sling-

The pure white blade shone like it was cutting through the pitch black.

“Don’t be ridiculous. This sword that Bok-sil gave me is enough for me. I don’t need a famous sword or anything like that.”

“Ashvan… … !”

Shushuruta shook my arm.

She was still holding my sleeve.

“Then you really die!”

I slapped Shushuruta’s hand away, then took a dagger out of my bosom and threw it at her.

Shushuruta took it in surprise.

“Take it. I have business with that devil with that fancy sword.”

“Hey, why are you giving this to me!”

“I don’t need it anymore. You take it.”

Shushuruta looked at me with a face that looked like it was about to cry.

“Why, why are you giving it to me? When you never let me touch you. Are you trying to die? Are you really trying to die? Huh? Answer me!”

I fiercely pushed away her hands that kept trying to grab my arm and turn me around.

Then he glared at Shushuruta and shouted.

“Idiot. I told you I didn’t need it. I didn’t care about the inheritance or anything like that in the first place. Take it.”

Saaaaa―

As we talked, the chill grew stronger.

A bitter cold was coming.

I had to send this guy away quickly before that.

Anyway, the only one that the cold is after is me. It was I who killed Baron Barranquilla, not Shushuruta.

There’s no need for this guy to be with me and get caught.

“Ashvan, Ashvan… … !”

I pushed Shushuruta’s shoulder away as he continued to try to grab my arm and spoke coldly.

“Get out of here with that. That’s why you followed me around anyway, right?”

“Why, why do you say that?”

“You got what you wanted. So stop talking nonsense and get out of here.”

“Ashvan… … .”

Shushuruta looked at me with tearful eyes.

There was no time.

“It won’t turn off? Just like that.”

As I walked briskly, raising my hand as if I was going to grab a chestnut, Shushuruta stepped back with a face that looked like she was about to burst into tears.

I screamed.

“Get out! If you don’t want to get caught!”

Shushuruta glared at me silently with her dazzling eyes and disappeared into the darkness.

“… … Don’t die. I’ll wait.”

The words she left behind fell on my ears like snow.

Only then could I look out into the darkness where the cold wind was blowing again.

He raised his sword and aimed it into the darkness.

The tip of the sword was shaking.

[Get your mind together. Are you planning on losing before you even fight?]

“Phew… … .”

I looked at the tip of the sword and took a deep breath.

The tip of the sword that had been trembling slightly began to calm down, and soon complete silence engulfed it.

If you cut a raindrop that is falling like this, it will split in half.

I took my gaze away from the tip of the sword and looked ahead.

As the focus shifted, the sword became blurry and the darkness before my eyes became clearly visible on my retina.

He was there before I knew it.

Phew!

I looked at the man who appeared out of the darkness with the blizzard.

Fortunately, it wasn’t a white devil like I had feared.

It was dark all around so I couldn’t see clearly, but the first thing I saw was a ghostly pale face.

He was surprisingly young. He looked to be in his mid-30s.

Did he become a swordsman at that young age? I was getting angry for no reason.

It had a sharp impression that seemed like it would cut you if you touched it, and at first glance, it looked like a statue carved from ice.

At first glance, he looked like a stubborn person with no flexibility at all.

For a royal knight, his attire was rather crude, but his shoulder-length hair was particularly striking because it was so blue.

It felt like frost had formed on my head.

I exchanged glances with him for a moment.

I could immediately see why his presence felt inhuman.

The eyes were like blocks of ice, without any emotion whatsoever.

He just looked at me indifferently.

A face that seems to have long since forgotten emotions like pleasure and displeasure, and is not even interested.

Cold, frozen eyes. An expression devoid of any emotion.

It occurred to me that the face was too bleak for any emotion to bloom.

It felt as if the statue had come to life and was moving.

Pure white breath flowed out from the statue’s mouth.

“Master. How does it look?”

I asked Cheonma about his first impression of the cold weather.

He is called one of the strongest prosecutors in the world.

What would it look like in the eyes of a heavenly horse?

[Hmm… … . Pretty good.]

“quite?”

[You must be a teenager.]

“Does that mean it’s incredibly strong?”

[It depends on what you’re comparing it to. Compared to you, yes.]

“Compared to the master?”

Cheonma smiled brightly.

[That’s a long way off. Are you trying to compare a top 10 player with the best in the world?]

“… … You did great.”

Anyway, it is true that it is incredibly strong.

I spat on the floor and muttered curses.

“It’s going to be a mess.”

I couldn’t help but sigh as I watched the saliva that had fallen to the ground quickly freeze into a gray color.

As he came closer, the surrounding temperature dropped even further.

I felt my hands and feet stiffening from the cold.

I raised my internal energy to fight against the cold.

Fortunately, I had just eaten the sam. The warm internal energy flowed through my whole body, driving away the cold that was digging into my body.

The bitter cold opened its mouth.

“The devil in the red eye. Is that right?”

It was a voice as cold as ice, just as it was made.

I nodded, casually picking up a few rocks on the ground.

“So you are the famous Ice Knight?”

“… … Sulkov Wintermeyer.”

“That’s right, Ice Knight.”

“… … .”

Hokhan looked at me for a moment with an expressionless face and then opened his mouth.

Every time he opened his mouth, it felt like there would be a cracking sound like ice cracking.

“The devil in the red eye.”

“What the heck?”

“I will punish you for the murder of Baron Lucas Barranquilla.”

“Ask.”

“My brother is sentenced to immediate execution.”

“That’s too much.”

The knight of the cold passed judgment on his own.

It was eerie to see only the mouth moving on a face with no change in expression.

Suddenly, I wanted to see cracks appear in that bastard’s icy face.

I was just fiddling around with a rock in my hand.

“How come there is no retrial?”

“There will be no retrial.”

“What a boring gentleman.”

“Enemy of the Devil. I will take your head at the king’s command.”

I answered with the corners of my lips raised.

“What if you don’t like it?”

“… … If you do not follow the king’s command, I will enforce your punishment.”

“Well then, Ice Knight Nari.”

I did a trick where I was both giggling and making a fool of myself.

Still, there was no change in expression.

I felt a bit disappointed.

“… … .”

The cold cold looked at me silently and then pulled out his sword.

Sling-

A cool metallic sound echoed through the darkness.

Just as I thought I saw a sharp blade flash in the darkness, a heavy snowstorm blew in.

‘What a blizzard.’

The moment I frowned slightly in the wind, the sword had already reached me.

I quickly stretched out my sword.

Zzz!

“Huh!”

I almost dropped my sword.

My palms are tingling.

I could tell just by looking at the sum.

He was on a whole different level from the guys I’d met up with so far.

I realized it intuitively.

Tricks don’t work.

He immediately dropped the stone he was holding in his hand without hesitation.

The bastard swung his sword without stopping.

Bang! Kkang! Kkang!

There was no time to shed the sword and sleep.

I was just busy desperately stretching out my sword and blocking the sharp blade that was flying towards me without hesitation.

Sparks flew every time the swords clashed.

There was not a single trace of unnecessary detail in his movements, and so there were no gaps to be seen.

It was the first time I saw no gaps, so I was a little confused.

Also, since there were no residual movements, the gap between attacks was short.

In short, the attacks were coming without any time to counterattack.

Kagagagang!

A situation where only defense is necessary.

‘This can’t go on.’

I realized it instinctively.

If I can’t bring the flow like this, all I’ll bring is death.

The cold swung its sword sharply.

Wow!

The shock reached my shoulder. My arm rang with a bang.

I deflected the sword with all my might, then dodged the sword flying straight towards my neck by tilting my head back.

At the same time, he shot a long sword towards the bastard’s chest with his left hand.

Zzz!

I used the recoil to land on the ground and do a backflip to gain some distance.

‘Did it work?’

No it wasn’t.

The guy was fine.

He paused for a moment, touched the spot where he had been hit by the sword, and then looked at me.

“Is it black magic?”

“No.”

“It’s black magic.”

“… … If that’s the case, why did you ask?”

I grumbled and switched my grip on the sword to my left hand.

He repeatedly clenched and unclenched his right hand, which had been holding the sword the whole time.

Even though I had raised my internal energy, it was still as cold as holding ice.

Just by clashing our swords a few times, a bone-chilling coldness spread through the sword and up to my hand.

If I didn’t have the inner strength, my hands might have frozen long ago.

I frowned and shook the cold off my hands.

The cold cold spoke indifferently.

“Black magic is summary execution.”

“No, double summary execution? Is this acceptable?”

The cold did not respond and raised his sword.

Strangely enough, the blade was as sharp as if it had been carved from a glacier.

Woof-

The cold became even stronger as a cold aura was added to the cold sword.

It just so happened that the sword was one of the famous nine swords of Oposis.

‘The name was… Blue Sword Frost.’

I tilted my head.

Because it didn’t look that great.

It was a little cold and my hands were numb, but that was it.

I waved my hands and shook off the remaining chill, grumbling.

“You said it was so great. It’s not as great as I thought—”

Kiiing!

A sliver of aura completely enveloped the sword, and then it suddenly began to howl.

Crunch!

The cold snapped the howling sword and thrust it into the ground.

The blue aura surrounding the sword burned fiercely and the sword screamed.

Kiiing!

And then, everything around it started to turn blue and freeze.

Jjeong! Jjeong!

The ground is frozen.

It spread in the blink of an eye.

Damn it!

“… … !”

The moment I came to my senses, my feet were already covered in ice up to my ankles and I was one with the ground.

The cold immediately twisted the sword he had thrust into the direction I was facing and pulled it out fiercely.

Crunch!

Sharp ice arose along the path of the drawn sword.

Each of them was about the height of an adult.

A wave of blue ice rushed toward me, rising fiercely and jaggedly.

Kagagagagagak!

“… … This is fucking bullshit.”

* * *

“Huk… … . Ugh… … .”

I stared into the bitter cold with my left hand hanging down, dripping with blood.

As soon as I broke the ice on my feet with my sword, I immediately flew to the side, but it was a little too late.

His left arm was impaled on ice.

The cold ran down my arm. It was just bone-chilling. Like a dog.

It was a more painful wound than being scratched by a mad wizard’s ice arrow.

I tried to drive away the cold by raising my internal energy, but it wasn’t easy.

I muttered in disbelief.

“What is this… It’s a real magic sword.”

The cold cold spoke with an indifferent face.

“Avoiding that.”

I frowned as if I was impressed.

“Are you kidding me right now?”

“I wasn’t kidding.”

“Then what is it?”

“……admiration?”

“Pick it up, kid.”

“i get it.”

I raised my internal energy and glared at the bitter cold, pushing away the cold that had seeped into my left arm.

Hokhan looked at me blankly while holding his sword and asked.

“How old are you?”

“Do whatever you want.”

“A rare accomplishment at such a young age.”

Bam.

A vein appeared on his forehead.

“This kid has been causing trouble since a while ago.”

“It’s not a problem.”

“You look just like we’re not that many years apart in age. What are you talking about?”

“You look older than you are.”

I had a brief staring contest with the man who was crying while I was there.

The cold asked.

“Can we fight again?”

What a considerate knight you are.

It seemed like he was waiting for me to apply first aid to my arm so I could fight properly.

I nodded after roughly applying a pressure point to the arm that had been cold to stop the bleeding.

“당연하지 개새끼야.”

The corners of my eyes flinched in the bitter cold.

“But why do you keep swearing?”

“It’s my heart.”

“… … .”

Hmm. Could it be that in just a little while, cracks will appear in that jade-like face?

That was the only bit of good news I had.

I can’t use my left hand.

He hasn’t even put up a proper fight yet.

There doesn’t seem to be any room to bite.

You have to show your testicles to bite them.

… … It was a desperate situation.

“Hehehe.”

But… … why am I laughing?
