I Was the Strongest Sword God in My Past Life - I Was the Strongest Sword God in My Past Life chapter 66

part 66

The crystals, which seemed to be alive and twitching, gradually took on their forms.

The sword-wielding swordsman.

The bow-wielding archer.

And the staff-wielding mage.”

The three people who had been formed into a modified version of the king surrounded Lucia like a guard.

Lucia, who was now allowed to create anything she wanted with her mana, was completely surrounded.

“But…”

Jeon gripped his sword and took a stance.

Snip!

A sharp, fierce sword strike whirled around, shattering the knight formed by Lucia’s mana into pieces. Jeon looked at the broken mana and said,

“It’s not strong just because it’s grand.”

This was a test of swordsmanship against Lucia, the genius of the Celestial Realm.

Grrr! Grrr! Grrr!

The magical artifact, Crown.

The throne of modification, which was expanding its territory over time, was covering the Colosseum with modification.

In addition, the modification soldiers were continuously producing mana, using Lucia’s life force as their source.

Hundreds of soldiers.

Thousands of weapons.

If Jeon were to break one, the world of modification would create hundreds of times more.

“This is a battle of exhaustion.”

Jeon looked up at Lucia, who was sitting on the throne.

Since she was sitting on the throne, the power of the magical artifact was absolute.

“It’s meaningless to break the modification.”

To end the war, they had to capture the king.

Jeon let out a sharp sound and struck the modification with a loud “thud.” He was blown away, and the five modification soldiers behind him were torn apart into fragments.

However, the modification space did not allow Jeon to approach Lucia.

A sword made of modification material sprouted from the ground, and an arrow was created in mid-air.

This was Lucia’s territory.

As she had expected, Jeon should have already been torn apart.

“How can I hold out with just one sword?”

Despite this, Jeon was dodging attacks like a storm and narrowing the distance.

“With no artifacts, just pure swordsmanship……”

Jeon’s sword technique, which pierced through the modification’s baptism, was now beautiful to Lucia.

‘It’s strong.’

This is Jeon Ruseel.

Arkana’s swordsmanship.

Lucia stretched out her hand with a firm gaze.

“Pocket.”

She pulled out a flask from mid-air. It was an artifact [a witch’s potion]. If she absorbed this, her entire body would become a witch’s body, overflowing with mana.

Instead, her mana would increase by more than twice for 5 minutes.

It was a double-edged sword, but Lucia did not hesitate to grasp the flask tightly.

Crash!

The flask shattered, and glass flew everywhere.

Lucia’s hand had formed a wound, and the potion was absorbed.

The red blood turned pale, and her entire body seemed to transform into a heart, pounding with excitement.

Wow!

A massive crystal wall suddenly appeared between Lucia and Jeon, piercing the ground.

Even the outer walls of the Colosseum were crushed, and the endless wall was an absolute defense.

However, Lucia’s abilities did not stop there.

“If I flee, I will flee without being able to flee; if I fight, I will fight without being able to fight. That’s it?”

Lucia’s voice echoed through the crystal world, creating thousands of crystal windows like a lustrous mist on the sky.

“Okay.”

Jeon stared straight at Lucia.

If she had inherited the talents of Fail and Sina, Jeon would have inherited Evan’s memories. Jeon had all of Evan’s experiences and skills.

“Possible.”

Jeon continued to run towards the wall, with the crystal soldiers rushing at her like waves. However, she couldn’t slow down.

“Kung fu is meaningless in front of the Crown. Maybe this is the limit.”

She pulled out the Magic Tool Crown.

She was neither a swordsman nor a knight.

In this world covered in crystal, she ruled as an emperor.

“It seems we don’t get along, Jeon Ruseel.”

Lucia’s eyes saw Jeon as just a single swordsman. Lucia’s finger pointed at Jeon. The crystal windows that filled the sky shot towards Jeon.

‘……Limit…’

Jeon felt a sense of unease at this. Fail, Lucia’s ancestor, was not born with natural talent.

So, people around them drew a line at level 4, saying that Pale’s limits were 4th-grade.

[But Evan, there’s no rule that says you can only do ordinary things with ordinary abilities.]

That was Pale’s creed, and a hidden talent. With that, Pale became a 7th-grade Sabeer and remained a hero.

The word “limit” was Pale’s least favorite word.

“It’s wrong.”

Tsutsu!

Jien’s sword shot out, sparks flying as the space was torn apart. The unknown rift, which seemed to lead nowhere, swallowed up the entire modification panel.

“……!!”

Lucia’s expression stiffened suddenly, caught off guard by the magical attack.

Jien continued to accelerate.

‘Left bottom.’

As she twisted her body, her foot landed on a spot where the modification was installed.

‘Right top.’

As she jerked her head up, the modification shattered the air.

‘Center.’

Jien’s sword shattered the modification.

As the distance shortened, the modification bombarded her like a barrage, but Jien was in a state of sensory overload, with every cell awakened.

Air resistance.

Accelerated thinking.

The sound of breaking through the air.

For Jien, Lucia’s attack was as clear as an answer sheet.

Tak!

Jien had suddenly arrived at the stairs.

Lucia, with a neutral expression, gripped her left hand, which was holding a vial, tightly. As she did so, blue blood flowed, and the ice wall grew thicker.

‘Can I break through?’

Jien took a stance in front of the wall. Now, her senses were amplified, and one second was divided into 1,000ths of a second.

The frozen world was calm.

Jien gazed at Lucia, who was on the other side of the thick wall, a genius who had never experienced defeat. But her invincibility was dull.

It creates talent and makes everything trivial.

If she can break through this wall…

Zhen became a new wall for Lucia, a goal that had to be overcome.

[Moonsword]

The Black Sage had absorbed the faint moonlight and everything about Zhen.

This was a virtual gate, and Zhen did not resist its power. Instead, she poured all her strength into the Black Sage.

“It can be done.”

The Black Sage drew a semicircle.

It was a sense of unity, but to Zhen it seemed slow, while to Lucia’s gaze it was like a straight line that flashed like lightning.

Snap! Snap! Snap!!

The crack in the wall, which seemed eternal, had begun to spread. The crack continued to widen, and the wall crumbled to nothing.

Wow!

Unbelievable expression of Lucia.

However, she soon gave up.

“I lost.”

Lucia gathered her mana.

The world made of glass, which had melted like ice in the sunlight, slowly seeped into the ground and disappeared.

“Good job.”

Zhen’s warm tone, which Lucia hadn’t even thought of, made her laugh out loud.

“You’re similar.”

Zhen was too strong to be compared to that person, but Lucia suddenly felt similar.

“Maybe, Lord of the Colosseum chose the sun as his partner because……”

Strength like this might not have meant anything from the beginning.

“I surrender.”

Lucia’s surrender caused the Colosseum to transform into particles and disappear from the outside in.

Lucia felt emptiness, but she had also gained a lot. The pre-competition Lucia and the present Lucia were different people.

“…Zhen Razel.”

She thought about the name of the man who had broken her undefeated record once again.

* * *

Zhen slowly opened her eyes.

The first thing she saw was the light directed towards herself.

“Ah.”

The roar of the crowd at the stadium was deafening.

-Waaahhh!

From noble mtl dot nete

The 70,000-strong audience was shouting at the top of their lungs, including Ji-Eun, Geum Shin, Arkan and Chris, and Isabelle.

Even Ji-Eun’s heart was racing with excitement.

The spectators weren’t just caught up in the broadcast’s entertainment. They knew that Sabeer was watching over the citizens from the Gate.

Ji-Eun’s party had only just shown this level of performance at the age of 17. It was natural for the audience to expect what kind of achievements she would make in the future.

The millions of viewers who had gathered were all celebrating the birth of a new hero.

“Ji-Eun!!”

Just then, Chris rushed over to Ji-Eun, shouting loudly.

“I knew we’d win! We did it!”

Isabelle looked at Chris with a calm expression.

“Stop it. You’re still a bit rough.”

“It’s alright, Isabelle. You were really good at dodging.”

Ji-Eun’s praise made Isabelle’s eyes sparkle.

“Hmm, really? Oh, I think it was just that…”

Isabelle was hesitant to use her body to fight, unlike Ji-Eun who was born with natural mana. It was probably because of this that her combat skills were more impressive.

As the crowd’s roar died down, Vernon picked up the microphone.

“The latest news from G Channel is that the winner of the battle survival has received a prize of……”

An original prize.

Only one person would find it appealing, but Vernon shouted it out loudly.

“We’re not going to take it back!”

Just then, Amy appeared from the booth and shouted.

“Waaahhh! Wait a minute, is this real? Really? How much is this?”

“What’s the big deal about it…… 4,000! 40 million coins!? You earned this much in just one day?”
