Returned Lord Wants To Rest - Returned Lord Wants To Rest chapter 97

Episode 97.

It can be said that it is an overwhelmingly unfavorable situation.

When I reached the 90th, even the black man’s swordsmanship instantly surpassed me.

Thanks to that, the 90th Black Man was having a hard time even with his body.

‘I dealt with up to nine such tough opponents.’

If I had to choose between one in full armor and nine in full armor, I would definitely choose the latter.

‘That’s because it’s more difficult to deal with one body in full armor than nine bodies.’

It wasn’t easy to pierce a person wearing full armor because he couldn’t use mana.

Just by looking at it, I could tell that there were no gaps.

“Come on!”

Is there any need to worry ahead of time?

fight for once

Then the answer will come.

The enemy moved with a creaking sound.

“Whoa…”

I only focused on my sword and my opponent.

An enemy approaching slowly.

‘Is it slow because of the whole armor?’

But this thought did not last long.

It was an enemy that suddenly rushed at me at high speed.

I hurriedly raised my sword and tried to block the whole armored enemy.

However, he soon avoided turning his body.

‘I shouldn’t have stopped it.’

It would have been pushed out the moment it was blocked.

The enemy who passed me turned again to me.

Red eyes emanated from the head of the full armor, to be exact, from the vicinity of the eyes.

“It’s bloody.”

The opponent who approaches me again.

This time I ran first.

I aimed at the chest area to determine the strength of the whole body armor.

“Ohh? Are you saying you’re not careless?”

Although I wore full armor, the enemy blocked my sword.

However, the full-armored swordsmanship was so familiar that he could deal with as many as nine at the same time.

After forcibly creating a gap, he swung his sword near his chest.

kang.

It was a pleasant sound when metal collided strongly with metal.

I exerted enough force on my hand that I hit it, but it didn’t even scratch me.

“It’s not that hard.”

The 90th enemy I faced earlier was armor that wasn’t even full body armor.

The armor worn by the 90th enemy was slightly scratched by my attacks.

But this time, the strength of the armor itself was different.

“What should I do…?”

I wouldn’t know if I could see a little gap, but I couldn’t see it at all.

Even the joints were covered with armor.

“But the intensity will be different.”

I swung my sword again.

It mainly aimed around the joints.

kang. kang.

However, the strength around the joints, which seemed to be flexible, was the same.

“If it’s the original weakness, it’s usually the joints…”

Joints and necks to be precise.

It was a space that armor could not cover.

But now the opponent is covered.

“It’s difficult, there’s no way to pierce the armor.”

It’s time to find out the answer.

Then, I suddenly realized one thing.

“Come to think of it, my eyes were shining.”

red eye glow.

it was clearly visible

That means the eyes are empty.

“I’ll have to give it a try.”

He immediately rushed at the enemy and swung his sword.

Perhaps through a brief contest, the enemy realized that it was not necessary to block all of my attacks, so he ignored my attacks and attacked.

I hurriedly turned my sword to block the enemy attack.

“Keugh, it’s going to be hard to even try.”

From nob le mt l. co m

Now I realized the swordsmanship of the enemies I dealt with this time.

It was a swordsmanship that was more focused on attack than the swordsmanship used by previous swordsmen.

That’s why there were more gaps, so it was easy to deal with.

However, I realized it while dealing with the whole armor.

There was no need to defend.

“For now, I will have to keep trying.”

I ran into the enemy again.

I was the one who would have a hard time if the initiative was taken away, so I had to pour the first attack without rest.

***

After several rounds of competition, a gap was finally created where the eye light shined.

I thrust my sword into it.

But it was soon blocked.

Something transparent was blocking the space where I thought there would be nothing.

“Damn it… but!”

I have hope.

It was difficult to deal with the full body armor that was blocked everywhere.

Even the robbers are excellent.

But the eyes were different.

The sound was different.

“It sounded a little like breaking.”

In other words, if you keep trying, you might be able to break through someday.

“A bit annoying, but fun.”

If I could use mana, I would cut through the whole armor.

Still, the road was slowly starting to show.

I don’t know how many times it will take, but if you keep going you’ll be able to defeat it.

Besides, even if I get tired or hurt in this space, I get better quickly, so I was able to try again and again.

“Then, let’s go again!”

I pointed my sword at the body armor and charged.

***

Clink.

After several attempts, something protecting the enemy’s eyes broke.

And my sword squeezed into that gap.

“Whew… it took a long time.”

Contrary to what I thought it would break after a few taps, it did not break easily.

I wondered if the answer I gave was wrong.

But this was the only way I could think of, so I kept trying, and eventually I was able to break through.

“Is it over now?”

I checked the number floating in the air.

[100]

There was no change.

Just in case, I waited for a while.

After a while, the number did not change.

“Are you done?”

[Do you want to proceed with additional trials?]

uh?

“Are you asking me now?”

What are the additional trials?

[Yes, that’s right. Do you want to proceed with additional trials?]

“An extra ordeal? What else is that?”

I can’t get a feel for it.

But my senses were talking.

This ordeal must go on.

Wouldn’t that be an endless struggle?

[The weapons of the enemies you have dealt with so far will change.]

Ohh.

Does that mean that it can deal with weapons other than swords?

It’s not certain, but the ordeal will proceed in the same way.

It was an opportunity to further develop myself.

“I will proceed with further trials.”

[101]

As soon as I took out the permission, it turned into a number.

It was the 100th enemy.

He was black as before.

If anything else…

“Is it a window this time?”

It was the opponent with the spear.

***

I cut down the last black man.

A black person who falls without fault.

Defeated the thousandth enemy.

[End of the trial of endless struggle.]

It ended only after dealing with the thousandth enemy.

Starting with the sword, various weapons such as spears, swords, whips, and fists popped out.

However, they were all easily overcome.

But the last one wasn’t easy.

Because the last opponent brought a new weapon called magic.

“More than that, magic… It’s annoying even thinking about it now.”

Is it okay to treat magic as a type of weapon?

It was easy to deal with at first.

That’s right, it’s easy to deal with magic from the lower circles.

However, even the magic of the lower circles was not easy since nine bodies used it at the same time.

Rather, it was better to deal with it every tenth time.

“But I won, so that’s okay.”

There were several moments when I was about to give up.

The more you deal with it, the higher the circle.

The nine hundred and ninety-ninth enemy was going mad.

Blink is a magic that moves a short distance, and the rate of fire of magic is also very fast.

There were nine enemies that were difficult to deal with.

Fortunately, it was fortunate that he did not use large-scale magic.

“It’s magic…”

Perceptions of magic have changed.

I thought it was just a strange sorcery, but when I actually dealt with it, it was very powerful.

“I thought the sword was the best in close combat.”

Depending on the use of magic, close combat could be advantageous.

“Even so, it should be called consideration for trials…”

I was able to win because I could cut or deflect magic with my sword.

If it was real, a swordsman who did not use mana would not be able to deflect magic.

“More than that, the ordeal is over, so what else is there this time?”

I’ve been given necklaces before.

It’s a clumsy necklace that seems to force me to sacrifice, but it was useful to keep as a trump card.

[Rewards are given according to the trials.]

nice

This time, the reward of the ordeal is given.

I thought for a while about what kind of reward I would give.

‘There is no need for a sword…’

Come to think of it, I didn’t want much.

‘I think it would be nice to have a command with divine power?’

If there is a spiritual order containing divine power, it will be of great help in accepting divine power.

I waited for a reward in anticipation of a decision.

But contrary to my expectations, the reward was a white bracelet.

“Ah… it’s not a spirit group.”

I was about to get angry when he kept giving me necklaces and bracelets, as I wasn’t interested in jewelry or adornment.

First, I tried wearing the reward I received.

“The design is not bad.”

It was a white bracelet with gold lines adding luxury.

But right after wearing it, I felt strange.

“Is there something…?”

I heard the urge to send mana to the bracelet.

I sent mana to the bracelet just in case.

The moment you spent a certain amount of mana.

“uh?”

For an instant, my vision narrowed.

I noticed right away about my abnormality.

Something was covering my body.

“Is this by any chance?”

The full armor worn by the hundredth opponent came to mind first.

I scanned my body with a narrow field of view.

A white armor covered my body.

The armor that only appeared in legends came to my mind.

“It usually takes the form of an accessory, but turns into armor!”

I moved my body.

“It’s light…!”

It was as light as not wearing full body armor.

I cut off the mana I was sending to the bracelet for an instant.

Then the sight opened again.

“Ohhh… if you stop sending mana, it will disintegrate…”

It didn’t consume much mana, so this was quite a useful item.

“Because I was working as a mercenary, I didn’t even think about armor.”

For mercenaries who valued activity, full body armor was nothing more than a luxury.

It was just a mercenary wearing minimal armor.

That’s why I didn’t wear armor.

“Anyway, it’s pretty good… but I have a question.”

I sent mana to the bracelet again and put on the full armor.

“Will the strength change depending on the mana you send?”

I looked up at the mana I was sending to the bracelet.

Outwardly, nothing had changed.

I moved once.

“What…?”

heavier than before.

Movement was not as easy as before.

But it wasn’t to the point of being a problem.

“The intensity must change depending on the mana you send.”

There was no one to test this with, so it was just a guess.

“By the way, the third trial is over already.”

If you return to the sanctuary, more divine power than before will fill the space.

It was predictable, but it had to be.

I waited with anticipation to return to Sanctuary.

Before long, the landscape around me changed into the sanctuary I knew.

“As expected.”

I felt more divine power than before.

“Is that the training environment I wanted after all the trials were over?”

I have a reason to somehow end the ordeal.

“But I’m worried about one thing.”

The moment the ordeal is over, everything goes back to nothing if you have to leave the sanctuary.

“It would be better to safely reach the level of a demigod before the ordeal is all over.”

However, feeling the divine power and accepting it were different issues, so I don’t know how long it will take.

I still have to do it.

‘Because I don’t want to wear this necklace.’

On the surface, it was a necklace containing divine power, but to me, it was just an ugly necklace.

“Then… I’ll start training right away.”

Because he had to accept the divine power as early as possible.
