I Was the Strongest Sword God in My Past Life - I Was the Strongest Sword God in My Past Life chapter 100

part 100

Tzutsu!

A white, icy aura flowed from Jen’s sword. When the rain from the sky brushed against the sword, it turned into an ice crystal and fell to the ground.

[The Blessing of the Spirit]

Now, the ice spirit glass was embedded in Jen’s sword.

Tatatak!

Jen did not swing his sword.

He brushed past the monsters like the wind, and arrived in front of the enemy. Now, the Black Hyang had the power to freeze anything.

“Die!”

The abnormality was noticed by the Black Hyang, which raised its sword against Jen.

Jen scanned the floor, covered in blood and water, with his sword.

“Dying is…”

And he whispered softly.

The one who drew their sword first was the Black Hyang, but Jen’s sword was like a flash of lightning.

“Ah, no.”

A one-word verdict, like a death sentence.

Jen raised his ice sword against the Black Hyang.

Hwaaa!

The water on the floor splashed as he swung his sword.

The floor, frozen at an incredible speed, followed the trajectory of Jen’s sword.

Tzetzetz!

The cold spread like a wave, covering the Black Hyang’s lower body and freezing it solid.

“Ah, the ice attribute!”

The Black Hyang exclaimed, taken aback.

Although he couldn’t cut through blood with his sword, if he had frozen, the story would have been different. Now, his opponent was tangible.

‘It’s time to end this.’

Despite Jen’s hand feeling numb from the cold power infused in his sword, he took another step forward.

The Black Hyang, whose upper body was not frozen, thrust his sword, but it was futile. Now, Jen was moving at the same speed as the falling rain. His thoughts had accelerated, and the Black Hyang’s sword had stopped moving, as if frozen in time.

Cursed.

Zhen’s head bowed as she entered the crimson vortex. Now, she was surrounded by the transparent moonlight, not the cold air.

[Moon Sword]

Zhen raised her sword again.

The soft light followed the sword, and then it disappeared for a moment. The sword’s glow was like a flash of lightning. The beautiful scenery was, but the mana released from the sword was sinister.

Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa!

If she couldn’t change into a liquid, she wouldn’t be able to dodge Zhen’s attack. The frozen leg, familiar scent of rain, and rushing light before her eyes made the crimson blood sense that this was the end.

‘…Is this the end?’

The crimson blood smiled at the fleeting memory, like a galloping horse. It was clear that her master would not have allowed such revenge.

[It’s already too late. The magic has gone out of control, and I’ll lose my sense of self.]

6th Grade Hunter.

A woman with exceptional skills, but also with a straightforward and honest attitude, was rejected by the organization.

[So, before that.]

Her master, who had abandoned her, would die at the hands of the organization, and Zhen couldn’t possibly accept that. However, she had no choice but to follow her request. There was no other way.

[Can you do it? … Ah?]

From noble mtl dot nete

She had no regrets about her choice.

If she had regrets, even if she tried to recall it, the name given by her master would not come to mind. Instead, her last words were vivid in her mind.

[Ugh, I’m like a crying child. But it’s fortunate… .]

That day, it rained.

Thanks to the rain, no one paid attention to the tears-like rain that Zhen was shedding.

[… Is the weather really nice today?]

The faintly glowing fog.

Zhen muttered to herself while looking at the gloomy sky with rain pouring down.

“Today is really nice.”

Kaga-gaga-gaga!

Zhen was engulfed in the storm of mana.

The Rebellion had failed, and the Gate was conquered. Therefore, Zhen had lost, and Zhen had won.

* * *

Thanks to Zhen’s performance, the 5th Grade Gate was conquered. For the first time, students had cleared the 5th Grade Virtual Gate. The historical achievement caused a commotion in the management office.

“Clear! Cleared!”

“Students are fifth-grade!”

“This is ridiculous, really……”

The administrators were shocked to the point where Stella and Camille from the student council couldn’t even speak.

“What, me, really?”

“Of course, the ace of the student council. The representative of the school. ……I can’t believe it.”

Despite the strange titles, Camille was genuinely impressed.

“Of course, she’s going to be the next student council president.”

“What’s this? President? When did you get permission from Jian?”

“You’ll get it, so don’t make a fuss. Stella.”

“Hmm. I like it~”

The student council was handing over the presidency in a reckless manner, just like they always did. Jian was favored by both students and teachers.

“Hahahaha! Selphie! We won! Our students have conquered fifth-grade!”

“That’s right! Of course! But, um, from my perspective as a 6th-grade Saver, even though I’ve retired—”

Selphie suddenly looked at Raymond with a stern expression.

“Ten out of ten, seven out of ten is still Jian’s doing. Our Ark Academy’s contribution is much, much, much greater!”

“What’s this? What’s going on?”

Raymond was startled and shouted.

On the other hand, Selphie casually stroked his beard and said:

“Let’s calculate it once. Ah, yes! The story starts from the time we caught the spy.”

“What’s this? What’s going on?”

Selphie snickered and poked fun at Raymond again.

“This is indeed a proud institution! Only the likes of Selia’s principal would say such things!”

“Heh heh! What are you talking about?”

“What’s wrong with you? You’re just attacking me with words! This scene should be caught on camera!”

Selphie burst out laughing and poked fun at Raymond again.

“Of course, it’s a proud institution! Only Selia’s principal would say such things!”

“Heh heh! What’s wrong with you?”

“Ah, this time, Jian’s party should be awarded and given a group vacation. We should give them a break.”

“What’s the vacation destination for our Selia Academy? Selia welcomes Jian’s transfer with open arms.”

When Raymond mentioned Jian’s transfer, Selphie was shocked.

“Where? What’s going on?”

“Heh heh heh! The other students are the same! Ah, no, except for that student, Amy. She doesn’t have to come.”

“What does that mean?”

“That student is closer to a villain than a savior!”

Amy was already receiving ridicule on various websites, including “Rebelion Member 5” and “Arkan from the Arcana, Found a Villain!”.

“Hohoho! This friend has really become funnier.”

Selphy patted Raymond’s back. At first glance, it seemed like they were arguing, but the two were actually in a harmonious atmosphere. However, there were people who were more excited about Jean’s clearing than the Academy’s principals.

G-Channel Broadcasting Station.

This place was usually noisy, but today it was even more so. When Jean defeated the red blood, the staff erupted in cheers.

In the moment when the 2-day night broadcast shone, Casston and Brodo were the most delighted.

“We won! Clear! Clear!”

“I’ve won, haven’t I?”

This broadcast, which was shot with Jean, was a success for the second time. Although it was not a frequent occurrence, Brodo and Casston received different treatment.

“Ah… I’ve worked hard, Casston.”

Brodo praised himself, saying that the satisfaction of fulfilling the contract was great, and that the body price had probably increased a lot. He also received a bonus from the station director, and the headhunter who came during the broadcast would probably increase his body price even more.

“Thank you, PD. I’ll stop now. I have to go to Ragnarok before winter comes.”

“Yeah, let’s go! Let’s go!”

“Oh, you’re cool, aren’t you? I knew you wouldn’t say no.”

Casston was surprised, but Brodo had his reasons.

“For a while, Jean and I won’t be able to broadcast. We’ll be on regular channels, so we’ll have to attract attention from the public.”

“Ah, that’s the Superstar broadcast, isn’t it?”

“That’s right. When there’s a superstar, we occasionally hold events. And since there are many stars this time, we’ll make it a big one.”

As Brodo said, the fan base of Arkan and Celina was a record-breaking one.

“Jean, the crimson warrior. Honestly, among students, there is no one who has achieved this level of pure swordsmanship without relying on mana.”

“Ah, yes, he’s a unique character.”

“And Isabelle! The only daughter of the outer devil, rumored to be a genius! Her beauty and talent are breathtaking! Ah, life is unfair, isn’t it.”

“Considering that, they all have strong personalities. There were many memorable scenes.”

Chris pretended to be a decoy for the demo, and for the first time, he spoke to DemoNa. This was the charm of Gate Broadcasting. Here, the drama unfolding was not a drama with a predetermined script.

Ironically, that’s what made it more dramatic. There was sincerity in the story of the saviors that the viewers saw. Casston smiled, reading the comments.

“I loved that scene the most. Lucia fighting near-muscles…”

However, Casston’s choice had bias. He was a fan of Lucia’s fan cafe and pretended to be her uncle fan. Brodo snorted.

“That’s too overwhelming. As a broadcaster, it’s not good to have no drama. Drama! Ah, in that sense, the best is the fight between Isabelle and Koa.”

Isabel’s Failure and Kua’s Awakening.

Kua transformed into his future self through the mysterious power of his skill. With the 2nd awakening of the magic tool, he controlled water and ice, unlike his current appearance, which was frozen like a young boy.

“Ah, even I, the Lord of the Moon, acknowledge that. But, look, Isabel has failed? We’re fine, but……”

The gate was cleared.

The broadcast was successful, but whether the related laws would pass was still unknown.

“That’s right. Rumor has it that the examiner is that person, so……I don’t know if it will be approved.”

“Uh, it doesn’t matter to us, but it would be great if it happened.”

“It doesn’t matter? It’s very important! If the law is approved, Jeon’s party will really participate in the gate, and who will take responsibility for that broadcast?”

“Uh…… Regular Channel?”

Cassidy’s realistic story was brushed aside by Brodo.

“Ah, no, we’re deeply connected like this. It’s clear that there’s an opportunity……”

“Well, it’s like that. If it passes, I’d like it to……”

After some thought, Cassidy continued.

“Could it be that Jeon is that active and failed?”

The hidden skill opened.

Under the rain-soaked sky, the frozen rooftop. Jeon’s ice sword presented a magnificent scene.

“Well, since the viewer response is good……But, Dennis-san is not a broadcaster, after all.”

“That’s right. …Uh, there are also posts asking for follow-up broadcasts.”

Cassidy was shocked and Brodo quickly poked him.

“Could it be that it’s the Director’s idea?”

“No, no, it’s not! It’s not!”

Bang!

At that moment, someone roughly opened the door.

The person who could open the door to the broadcasting room where Brodo was located was only one person.

“Director!”

Cassidy greeted the Director, who nodded his head in approval, patting Cassidy’s shoulder.

“Just as I trusted. Well, really. I’ve seen the best gate-clearing broadcast during my time.”

The Director’s expression was solemn.

“This kind of excellent broadcast has been born on our G-channel. I’m really proud to be the Director.”

“Haha! Not at all!”

Cleston smiled and replied, and the general chuckled and hesitated to speak.

“A happy news, a sad news, and a request. There are three stories altogether. Which one would you like to hear first?”

Cleston’s words made Brodo tense up.

“I’d like to hear the happy news first.”

“The happy news is that this broadcast! The new horizon of the Gate strategy broadcast has been opened!”

Cleston glanced at the general and asked cautiously.

“Well… then what’s the sad news?”

“The sad news is! Ugh, those lousy KS Channel guys have played a trick on us! It looks like they’re going to hold another foolish sports festival. They must be planning to snatch the Superstar we’ve cultivated!”

Although the general was agitated, Brodo and Cleston were not surprised at all, as they had already predicted the situation. As long as it wasn’t about planning a follow-up broadcast, they didn’t care about anything else.

“Hmm… and the request is…”
