How Did I Become a Great Prophet?! - How Did I Become a Great Prophet chapter 16
16 – Now they come from abroad
In East Asia, there are superhumans called the three great swordsmen.
Although it is a word that is only used in East Asia, it is a term that refers to the three most unique swordsmen who handle swords, and although they are selected only among swordsmen, none of them are non-S rank superhumans, and they are not in an officially recognized position. The stature is truly great.
At first, it started with the idea of which country’s swordsman was the strongest, but now it has come to mean the pinnacle of East Asian swordsmen.
The members of the three major swordsmen exist, one each in Korea, China, and Japan, and the members are as follows.
The swordsman is said to be the strongest in China.
One of the only five superhumans of the S rank that exist in Korea, ‘Efficiency, nabal, and sloppy!’ Korea’s Baldoje (拔刀帝) who insists on only one way, shouting,
A Japanese flower sword that is said to handle a sword that is fast, fluid, and more beautiful than anyone else.
However, unlike Swordseon and Baldoje, which are still actively active, Hwagum has somehow been discontinued for several years, so questions are arising.
And so, for some reason, without any activity until now, that flower sword that had been living in seclusion has now arrived in Korea.
…With a very strange expression.
“Hmm, where is Cheongsong’s home base?”
The cold magic still lingers.
Of course, ordinary people, as well as high-ranking superhumans, wouldn’t notice it, but it was a different story when it came to S-rank superhumans. Especially with the current fire sword.
“Oh, that’s it?”
It wasn’t too difficult to pinpoint the location because there had been an incident with an extraordinary scale recently, and the sword quickly moved to a place where magic was felt.
A neat high-rise building. And the mighty magic power felt on the top floor.
She didn’t come with an appointment, and she didn’t want to attract attention, so she went up to the roof of the building.
Then she sneaked open the window and went in, casually sitting on a chair with a cup of mixed coffee as if she were visiting her friend’s house of 10 years.
“…Do you know whose territory this is?”
“Ah, did you come here without knowing? Isn’t it General Dong’s hometown?”
She giggled mischievously and sipped her coffee.
“Hmm~. I heard that Korean mixed coffee tastes good?”
“Whoa… I don’t know who it is, but I don’t think they came here to play around… What’s the matter?”
“Hmm? Don’t you know me? Even if I see you like this, you’ll be famous in Korea!”
“I know it’s an S rank. It’s a miserable situation.”
Housekeeper Ha, sitting with her legs crossed, replied coldly.
“Oh, sure. I’ve become a lot of idiots.”
Hwa-gam laughed at those words and took off the sunglasses she was wearing.
Then she said, slightly surprised to see her cleaning face.
“…Saramei or Akame?”
“Didn’t I tell you that? You’re famous! Voila! The fire sword Sarameya Akame is here?! Heck…”
Akame said with a pleasant smile, as if she was used to it, but she couldn’t help but be surprised at her cleaning work when she saw Akame for the first time since she lived in seclusion.
It’s because the fire sword Akame, who was famous as the 3rd swordsman, was ruined to the point where it would be appropriate to say that it was disastrous.
One of her arms was cut off and was not visible, and the other arm was also covered in scars and was shaking as if it were not in good condition.
The two eyes that were covered with sunglasses seemed to be unable to function properly due to severe scars on the face.
The magical power she possessed was also at stake, and it was also weakening.
…But it was surprising that it was an S rank even if it was rotten.
“There must have been a reason for your confinement. What happened?”
“Sure? But that’s why I came to you.”
Putting on her sunglasses again, Akame continued her words.
“The heavy snowfall happened a while ago. It’s your fault, isn’t it?”
“That’s right, but…”
I said it because there was no reason to hide it, but what connection is there between that incident and the reason the broken fire sword came to me?
“Because I became like this, one of my senses became more sensitive? That’s why I felt it the day it snowed, and I was convinced while looking at you today. You, have you exceeded your limits?”
“…Was it so strange that superhumans surpassed their limits?”
“I’ve already noticed that the limits you’ve crossed are not what we call ‘limits’. Back in the day, you and I were just criminals, but not anymore.”
Akame, who had been putting a smile on her face, smiled even thicker.
“It’s hard to explain, but…You’ve surpassed something greater. As a result, you’ve acquired a talent close to genius. There’s no way that kind of thing could happen just because you’ve crossed the limit once, right?”
“Ohh…You’re pretty accurate.”
The cleaning nodded her head without saying anything.
“But so?”
“It’s nothing special. You couldn’t have done that on your own, right? You must have had a helper. That’s very special. What I want is that helper.”
“……”
“I just need to be able to talk to that helper. Oh, of course, I’m not saying that I’m asking for an introduction. Can I meet such a great person who can break even the wall of talent as a last?”
Chin!
Akame released her sword from her belt and placed it on her table.
“Now. This is an introduction fee. You know it? It’s no exaggeration to say that you’ve been with me all your life. It’s my favorite sword. You can use it or sell it. It’s worth tens of billions of dollars, no matter how small it is, isn’t it?”
“…You’re serious.”
She earnestly desires that ‘hwasword’ to the extent that she even handed over her own beloved sword, to the extent that her lofty self-esteem was bent.
What the hell is that thing…
“Don’t worry too much. Do I look like a b*tch stupid enough to cut the only rope?”
She looked straight at Akame with her deep, sunken eyes as she cleaned, and Akame erased her laugh, took off her sunglasses, and said in a serious tone.
“Please.”
“Hmm…”
I was worried about cleaning in that attitude.
Will introducing Hwagum to Dam Hanul help him?
‘I don’t think you’re lying. And when it comes to fire swords, Eun-won is definitely a person…’
If Dam Han-ul gives her her grace, she will surely come to her aid.
However, formidable competitors may increase instead…
‘I received a lot of introduction expenses, and since he is an outside director of Cheongsong, his gains can lead to Cheongsong’s gains.’
I picked up Akame’s sword that was on the table as soon as I decided that there would be no damage to myself or to Han-ul Dam.
“Okay. Let me introduce you. But be careful.”
“That’s of course! Thanks Soha!”

Akame put on her sunglasses again and smiled brightly.
And right after that, Akame, who heard the story from Cheong Ha and made a reservation with her help, went to Dam Han-ul’s house a day later.
“Is this where the fortune teller is!”
The thing that made him, who was famous as the 3rd swordsman, become like this and live in seclusion until now.
Akame, hopeful that she might finally be able to solve the case, was very excited, and she quickly arrived at the house and knocked on the door.
And when the door opened, Akame proudly greeted me,
“Hello, Mr. Dam Han-ul!! Say hello to Sarameya, who made a reservation today!! I’ve heard of her teacher’s high ability…”
“Uh, uh?! Besides, he’s a foreigner…!?”
I froze Dam Han-ul, a speaker of one language,
“Eh.”
“Oh.”
Akame, who never imagined that her communication would be blocked due to the difference in language, froze at her smiling face.
************************
Japanese and Korean.
The strange silence caused by the difference between the two languages was resolved thanks to Lycone, who came to my house at just the right time.
“Huh? Manager. It looks like a guest is visiting. Why are you doing that?”
“Ah, ricone! That’s…”
It was a very dramatic appearance of a savior, to the extent that I have never been more delighted to see Lycone’s visit in my entire life.
Well, it’s been less than a month since we got to know each other, but anyway.
Licone solved this tricky problem simply.
“Aha! This strange thing happened because we spoke different words? Well, the executive wasn’t superhuman.”
I didn’t know that, but when I was a high-ranking superhuman, thanks to my magical powers, I was able to communicate even if we spoke different languages. I don’t know how to write, though.
Ah, it’s a useless fact, but besides that power, Ricone says she knows how to speak Korean. It is for that reason that Ricone has been dispatched under my direct control.
Anyway, the problem was easily solved when Ricone stepped in and acted as the interpreter.
“It’s fortunate! I can’t believe that someone with great abilities like a teacher wasn’t superhuman! I was a little surprised! But that’s why it feels so great! To think that even though he’s not superhuman, he has such amazing abilities!” !”
“…Uh, just translate it as if you were talking without an executive.”
“Okay!”
Anyway, through Ricone, we were able to introduce ourselves and have a smooth conversation.
“…But do you know me? As if you know my abilities…”
“Oh, no, I heard from Soha! I was introduced through Soha-chan!”
‘Are you very close with the guild leader Cheonghwaha?’
I had a slight doubt, but I put that aside and asked the most important question first.
“Since you came to see your divination…What did you come to see?”
“Oh, before I talk about that…”
After saying that, Akame smiled quietly and took off her sunglasses.
“My behavior is a bit peculiar, isn’t it?”
“Uh, that’s…”
“It’s okay! I think it’s unusual!”
Akame, who smiled brightly and revealed her lost eye, severed arm, and injured arm, smiled brightly as if she had no scars.
“Will you listen to my old story? The reason why I am so broken…”
However, I could feel the bitterness in that smile.
