Episode 402. The Belgrade War (17)

For Aaron, the young priest’s presence could be defined in just one word.

‘Wall.’

fallow year.

An outstanding talent that can be called genius.

The teacher’s favor that naturally came with it.

Each of them became a thick wall that Aaron could never overcome.

He also has the ability to regain his youth.

The talent to quickly shake off a pursuing priest.

However, there wasn’t much time left.

So at first I was jealous.

However, after realizing that he could not overcome the wall of priesthood that blocked him, he had no choice but to give up.

I loved the green hood.

Because I cared for my brothers.

For the sake of the Green Hood’s future, it was thought right for a priest to take the position of successor.

So he thought it was the right thing to do to leave the mountain.

but.

‘It was all just an escape in the end.’

It was all just an excuse to run away.

What confronted me through that green hood was a monster with even greater talent than the priest who had made me leave the mountain.

Ugh-.

Aaron, who had just woken up, glared at Yuri with burning eyes.

‘Are you trying to run away again?’

Aaron blamed himself.

‘How far… … .’

You ran away here and now you’re thinking of running away again.

This time, he was up against a lump of flesh that looked younger than his own priest.

‘… How far do you plan on falling!’

Don’t you think it’s too ugly to stop attacking because you’re afraid of your opponent growing?

Full-.

‘I won’t run away anymore! No, there’s nowhere to run to!’

Aaron’s hands, holding the axe, were filled with strength.

“Eww!”

Aaron ran towards Yuri, screaming at him.

Yuri’s eyes were filled with bewilderment as she faced this.

‘Wh… What the?! Why is this old man acting like this all of a sudden!’

To Yuri, who didn’t know that her own existence had become the detonator, Aaron, who suddenly turned his eyes and rushed at her, simply looked like a crazy person.

‘This old lady has gone crazy!’

Yuri swung her sword to survive the senile old man.

The life-and-death battle between the two, which had been paused for a moment, resumed.

***

“Untie the ship’s bonds!”

“Get rid of my legs!”

The Jikli Union successfully crossed the bridge thanks to Yuri.

They immediately began dismantling the combined vessels.

In response, several young people came to the leadership to protest.

“If I just remove the bridge like this… what will happen to that person!”

“You left him alone in the enemy lines!”

“Even though we are in the midst of a war, are you trying to make us into people who don’t even know how to be grateful?”

The being that those who protested looked at and called ‘that person’ was none other than Yuri, who was fighting Aaron across the river.

It was entirely thanks to Yuri that the Jikli Alliance was able to escape the enemy lines safely.

There was no one among those who took part in this war who was unaware of this fact.

But to leave that glass alone across the river and destroy the bridge.

Young people came to protest, thinking that this could not be tolerated, but all they received were pitiful looks.

“Don’t worry about anything, tsk! Can’t a master like me cross a river?”

“Well… I guess you might not be good at swimming?”

It was Teresia who answered someone’s timid protest.

“Don’t worry. One of his… no, our captain’s specialties is swimming.”

It is advantageous to swim all the way from the island of beginning to the mainland of the cradle.

A river of that size wasn’t even a problem.

When Teresia and other members of the Sowol mercenary group appeared, everyone’s attention was drawn to them.

“The young heroes have been kidnapped.”

“You worked hard. Thanks to you, I was able to overcome a difficult situation.”

These are the people who showed performance worthy of the expression “one against a hundred… no, one against a thousand.”

The sight of just four men splitting the Schmidt Alliance in half was so impressive that no one among the Alliance leaders looked upon the Sowol mercenaries as mere young mercenaries.

Moreover, this is another reason why the leaders cannot ignore the Sowol Mercenary Corps.

It was the existence of Yuri struggling across the river.

“… It’s amazing.”

“What the heck is that… … .”

The scene of Uli Jikli’s neck being cut off was still vivid in my mind.

Even the strongest player in Belgrade was eventually defeated by Aaron Schmidt and lost his head.

however.

“… Even if you’ve been training in magic since you were in your mother’s womb… is that even possible?”

A young mercenary leader who seemed to be their son or grandson was engaging in a fierce fight with Aaron Schmidt.

This is something that simply defies their common sense.

So finally, someone, unable to contain their curiosity any longer, asked.

“… How old are your captains? By any chance… Do they have any special skills to make themselves look younger?”

The one who answered that question was none other than Petra.

“I must be twenty-one this year.”

“How does the Lord know that?”

“Because he was a mercenary I trained at the Mercenary Army Basic Training Center.”

“Are you talking about that mercenary leader?!”

“Surprisingly, it’s true. I can vouch for the age of the Sowol Mercenary Corps Commander.”

“Umm… … .”

Petra’s story drew groans here and there.

Meanwhile, they looked at the glass facing Aaron as if possessed.

‘To think that he has achieved such great things at such a young age!’

‘A real new star has appeared!’

Yuri’s strength, which was not appropriate for her age, was an incomprehensible surprise.

But what surprised the audience even more was the nature of the fight.

‘… the tide is turning. Is this just my imagination?’

When the fight started.

The level of the onlookers was low so they couldn’t tell exactly, but they could clearly feel that Yuri was pushing Aaron with all his might.

It seemed as if such a fierce struggle was in vain, and Aaron often seemed to be on the defensive.

but.

bang-!

Not only did Aaron, who had barely managed to force his way in, turn the tide of the battle so easily, he ended up pushing Yuri into a dangerous situation.

“Ugh, sick!”

Yuri, who barely escaped that crisis, continued the desperate fight.

If you make even one mistake.

No, it’s a close fight on the edge of a knife where it wouldn’t be strange for your head to be blown off at any time even if you don’t make any mistakes.

That’s the fight Yuri has been fighting so far.

however.

‘Finding stability.’

‘Are you adapting? No… Are you feeling more relaxed?’

Something was changing in Yuri.

A change so distinct that even those far away could notice it.

Gulp-.

People across the river watched Yuri’s fight with bated breath.

***

Yuri gritted her teeth.

‘What the hell is this inspiration tank?’

Although he is currently hanging on by a thread, he is ahead in terms of effective hits.

No, it was overwhelmingly superior.

Although he had never allowed himself to be attacked before, Aaron’s body was covered in wounds.

‘If it’s a wound of that severity, it’ll definitely affect your movements, right?’

Injuries sustained in a previous fight with Uli Giclee.

And the deep wounds he inflicted.

Even though he suffered an injury that would have caused an ordinary person to collapse by now, Aaron’s movements were unchanged.

Even though he is covered in blood, he still acts cheerful as if he has no problems at all.

‘Wait… Bloodline?’

For a moment, a memory from the past flashed through Yuri’s mind.

‘Now that I think about it, it feels strangely familiar?’

I hadn’t thought much of it until now, but when I became conscious of it, the magical aura that Aaron was emitting felt strangely familiar.

Yuri thought about it for a moment and then came up with an answer.

‘Bloody dummy?’

Or the magic called Bloody Doll.

It was a technique used by ‘Michel Ang’ against Arin in the first Muryong War.

‘They definitely look alike.’

Michelle, who was able to move even with dozens of arrows shot into her body, and Aaron, who was able to move even with wounds that made it seem like he could collapse at any time.

The temperaments of the two were strangely similar.

But it wasn’t the same.

‘Did you mix it?’

What if Aaron mixed Bloody Dummy with his mastery of magic?

What if you could use the Bloody Dummy trait?

And what if Aaron is really using the Bloody Dummy?

‘It’s pointless to wait for this old man to pass out from exhaustion.’

If my guess is correct, this fight will not end unless Aaron is killed.

Yuri’s eyes sank at that fact.

‘I need… a certain strength! A perfect blow to cut down this old man!’

If things continue like this, I might get tired before Aaron.

So before that, I absolutely had to obtain the power to solve all the situations at once.

And now Yuri was realizing it too.

‘It’s visible.’

Countless dents in the high, thick wall that blocked his path.

In between, light flickered beyond the wall.

‘A little more… … .’

Now, if I could just break down that wall, I would be able to take another step forward.

And I believe we can win this fight too.

‘Just a little more!’

Yuri swung her sword sharply towards the visible target and unleashed her immature sword.

Jeok-.

The moment the wall blocking the glass opened again, a long crack appeared.

bang-!

Aaron, who received Yuri’s sword.

As Yuri had guessed, he was still able to move without any problems even though he had become a blood man.

The reason Aaron was able to fight a long battle even with his aged body.

Also, the secret weapon that allowed him to win the fight with Uli.

That was thanks to Aaron’s ‘Bloody Pile’ skills.

When Aaron decided to mix this into the magic he had learned, his master, Sangun, clicked his tongue and tried to dissuade him.

[Tsk, you’re trying to put something in your bowl that doesn’t fit.]

But despite his teacher’s dissuasion, Aaron chose to learn the Bloody Dummy.

To compensate for the weaknesses of the increasingly aging body.

Also, a bloody dummy was needed to shake off the priest who was chasing him closely.

And after a long period of research, Aaron successfully brought out the benefits of the Bloody Dummy.

However, that success ended up having the fatal side effect of preventing him from advancing to the 9th Dan level.

‘I see what the Master meant when he said that I tried to put something that didn’t fit into my bowl.’

After decades of research, we’ve managed to somehow fuse the merits of the Bloody Dummy, but that’s only made the wall to move forward ridiculously high.

It was the price to pay for going beyond one’s means.

This caused Aaron to collapse in front of the wall of the official 9th ​​Dan, which became one of the reasons why he left the Green Hood.

Aaron sat in front of the wall of the official 9th ​​Dan for over ten years.

But after such a long time, a change came over him.

‘How long has it been since I’ve fought like this?’

The passion of my youth disappeared, and at some point I became obsessed with only winning fights.

Because I didn’t want to lose.

No, because I was afraid of losing.

So the priest… didn’t even think about climbing over the wall, he just sat down in front of it.

‘Why… didn’t I think of fighting sooner?’

Because you never know when your aged body might cause trouble?

Are you worried that you’ll be overtaken by the talents that would make you a genius?

Or is it because you’re afraid of getting on your teacher’s bad side?

‘I wish we had fought long ago!’

I wish I had tried it before I got older, but I only realized it now.

At that moment, Aaron shook his head inwardly.

‘No, it’s not too late.’

I will definitely win this fight.

Kill the young monster in front of you who was born with blessed talent.

I will take Belgrade in my hands and return proudly to the Green Hood.

And once again, I will challenge for the position of successor.

‘I’ve already overcome the monstrous wall, so how can a priest be a problem?’

That was the moment when Aaron shook off the shadow that had been eating away at his mind for decades.

Jeok-.

A crack appeared in the wall blocking his way.

***

A hill far from where Yuri and Aaron are fiercely fighting.

There were two men and women standing there.

A large, muscular old man wearing a leather vest and a woman in black overalls.

They were watching the life and death of Yuri and Aaron as if the great distance was not an issue.

“Huh… Things are going interestingly.”

Sangun came to play because he was bored and curious about how the war was going.

He witnessed an unexpected sight and was inwardly amazed.

‘I was wondering where that monster-like kid came from… … .’

A monstrous young man who has not only achieved extraordinary feats that are not appropriate for his age, but also continues to grow and overcome walls even in life-threatening fights.

At first, I was beyond impressed by his talent.

‘Aaron, are you trying to climb over the wall now?’

What surprised Sangun at this moment was that even his old disciple, who he was sure would never grow any further, was trying to climb over the wall.

“hmm…….”

The small, sleepy Sangun asked May, who was standing next to him.

“Who do you think will win?”

May Winchester answered the mountain man’s question without a moment’s hesitation.

“I guess whoever breaks down the wall first will do it.”

He was a young man who was only a certified 7th Dan, but he fought on equal terms with Aaron with only his extraordinary skills and dull sword.

Will he get over the wall first and get his hands on the sharp sword that will cut off Aaron’s lifeline?

Or Aaron will first obtain the overwhelming power to crush the young man.

The direction of the fight will depend on which of the two breaks down the wall first.

That’s how May Winchester answered.

The fight between Yuri and Aaron was reaching its climax.

***

The glass sword advances forward.

‘more!’

Jeez-!

Aaron’s axe is swung.

‘I will win!’

Jeez-!

So a sword and a pair of axes come together in one point.

“Just a little more!”

“I will definitely win and return!”

Crackle! Crackle!

The moment when two people roared in desperation for victory.

Tsk tsk- thud thud- thud!

Finally, the wall blocking the path of one of the two came crashing down.

and.

Flash-!

A huge golden light suddenly burst out and engulfed the two people whole.
