The Absolute Martial Deity of the Fallen Family - The Absolute Martial Deity of the Fallen Family chapter 40

Episode 40. A Place for Even the Trash

Crash, thud!

They knocked down the members of the Ultenschwabian Assembly blocking their path, broke through the closed door, and advanced.

Sirius continued to swing his sword, his mind focused.

After compiling the information gathered, it was clear that the Ultenschwabian Assembly was far more wicked than the northeastern gray organizations, especially involved in despicable acts like human trafficking.

Hence, there was no need to ponder over how to deal with them.

Just take them all down.

“Four thousand two hundred and forty… Oh, my, eight.”

“Cough…!”

From behind, the sound of Belied finishing off the thugs was heard.

Belied was diligently performing Sirius’s task of practicing the Triple Strike Sword Technique ten thousand times.

Honestly, Belied showed much more dedication than Sirius had anticipated, even using the Triple Strike Sword Technique in battles against gray organization members.

Of course, Belied had only been learning the technique for a few days, so he fought with magic and finished with the sword technique.

“Master, I will take the left side!”

Meanwhile, Alayon seemed to be igniting a competitive spirit in Belied.

In terms of swordsmanship, Alayon was at a significantly higher level as a swordsman.

However, seeing Sirius acknowledge Belied’s efforts, Alayon seemed to feel a sense of competition.

Since encouraging Alayon’s growth was not a bad thing, Sirius let him fuel the competition.

“Yes, show me what you’ve got.”

Sirius felt satisfaction.

Both Alayon and Belied, once trained well in martial arts, would become valuable assets.

They could even serve as the twelve guards of the previous life, assisting Ustia in the north.

“These rascals, that’s enough…!”

At that moment, black and gray organization members rushed forward.

They raised their hands and unleashed a spell in unison.

“Master!”

Crackle, thud!

Neutral magic bullets were fired in unison.

Only 1st and 2nd Circle mages could concentrate magic in this way to fire magic bullets.

Individually, these bullets were as powerful as a punch, but when fired simultaneously by many, they posed a serious threat.

Of course, this did not apply to Sirius.

The moment he detected multiple magical bullets coming his way, Sirius unleashed the power of his North Star.

After absorbing the magic of the bullets with his common sword, he redirected it straight ahead.

“Ugh…!”

Thud!

Trampling over the collapsing members of the organization, Sirius advanced without hesitation.

From behind, the sounds of Alleon and Valide finishing off could be heard.

“Is this it?”

A door more imposing than the others caught his eye.

Sirius channeled his power and smashed the door open.

Thud!

As the door split, the scene inside was revealed.

“….”

About a dozen officers in common attire were seated on either side.

At the head sat a rugged man of great stature, while a quick-witted man stood beside him.

According to the information gathered so far, it must be Ultenshwaine, the leader of the Ultenshwain assembly, and his aide, Baldwain.

“This scoundrel…”

“You’ve finally made it here!”

The officers rose, some brandishing their military swords.

There were also those raising their right hands to cast spells.

“Wait.”

At that moment, Ultenshwaine’s voice rang out.

With his scarred face, he stared intently at Sirius.

“Do not move until I give the order.”

At his command, the officers ceased their movements.

It seemed like they all obeyed Ultenshwaine thoroughly.

“Alleon, Valide.”

Sirius addressed Alleon and Valide, who had arrived late.

“I’ll handle this place, so go around elsewhere and sweep away the stragglers.”

“Sirius, I’ll stay here with you… Urgh!”

“Quit the nonsense and follow Lord Danju’s orders, Valide!”

Alleon grabbed Valide by the collar and stood up.

Alone in front of the officers of the Ultenshwain assembly stood Sirius.

“Sirius Canisroot, I have a proposal for you.”

“A proposal?”

“I heard you’re fighting against the Agtas family.”

Ultenshwaine spoke with a weighty voice.

“I, Ultenshwaine, will assist you in that fight. Of course, the officers here will join as well.”

“….!”

The officers were taken aback by Ultenshwaine’s statement.

It was an unexpected proposal that had not been prearranged.

“If you promise to guarantee our rights, we can help you take control of the entire East. What do you say?”

“It’s not worth considering.”

Sirius replied coldly.

“Wultenshvain, I plan to go after your necks and visit the Agtas family.”

“What did you say?”

“And I will hold the Agtas family accountable. I will ask why I have let those I can easily deal with go unchecked until now.”

“….”

“So, joining hands with you is out of the question.”

There was a moment of silence.

The officers seemed ready to rush forward and shout, but Wultenshvain said nothing.

He just stared at Sirius with his mouth closed.

“Ha ha….”

And then, laughter burst from his lips.

“Ha ha, an impressive figure has appeared!”

It was not a mocking tone.

Wultenshvain was sincerely admiring Sirius.

But at the same time, the aura emanating from Wultenshvain was becoming increasingly intense.

“Hey, Sirius.”

Wultenshvain said with a sinister smile.

“What do you hope to achieve by doing this?”

“I will create an alliance.”

“An alliance? Are you talking about a coalition?”

“I plan to create an organization much larger and more in line with righteousness than the Black Society’s alliance.”

Sirius replied calmly.

“In that alliance, both the light and the dark will come together.”

“….”

“But it seems I have made a mistake.”

Saying so, Sirius looked around.

“There seems to be no room even for trash like you.”

“You…!”

The officers were furious.

But due to the order Wultenshvain had given earlier, they couldn’t attack Sirius.

“Nice talk, Sirius.”

Wultenshvain said, maintaining his smile.

“But it won’t be an easy task.”

“….”

“If you continue to roam around, defeating all the Black Society members like you do now, you will also act within the alliance. No, you might already be moving.”

As he spoke, Wultenshvain reached out to the side.

And he grabbed the greatsword he had placed next to the chair.

Wultenshvain, the magic swordsman of the 7th Circle who wielded the giant sword.

“Sirius, ambition is not exclusive to you. I, too, have ambitions to be recognized by the Union and venture into a broader world.”

For that ambition, this person called Ulten Schwabein had committed all sorts of dirty deeds to amass wealth and power without feeling a hint of conscience.

A man veiled in utter darkness.

That’s how Sirius felt.

“I will offer your neck to the Union and earn their recognition.”

With those words, Ulten Schwabein unleashed magic from his greatsword.

“Attack!”

“Yes…!”

Responding to the command, the officers who had been waiting for an opportunity all rushed out.

Half wielded weapons, while the other half raised hands to cast spells.

But Sirius’ movements were faster than their attacks.

“Argh!”

“Ugh!”

Swoosh!

A sharp beam of light cut through the room.

Two officers pierced by the light beam died instantly, while three others were seriously injured.

And the beam of light struck Ulten Schwabein, who stood at the highest seat.

“Hmph!”

Ulten Schwabein snorted as he caught the light beam with his hand.

The essence of the light beam… was a dagger swiftly thrown by Sirius.

“To ambush with such a petty trick… Ugh!”

Blood spurted from Ulten Schwabein’s hand.

He had involuntarily wounded himself as the dagger he held in his hand sprang back, causing the injury.

The dagger contained the first stage of the Celestial Power of the North, the power of attraction.

By utilizing the unique force of the North, he had pulled back the dagger he had thrown.

It was impossible for Sirius to display swordsmanship with his current internal energy, but with the power of the North, he could retract the dagger once thrown.

“How dare you… Ugh!”

One of the officers screamed.

Sirius’ dagger grazed his neck as it passed by.

Using the power of the North, Sirius manipulated the dagger to perform a similar swordsmanship.

“What a peculiar skill…!”

The officers tried desperately to capture Sirius.

They wielded weapons and cast spells, but Sirius, displaying his magic, moved freely among them.

With each swing of his sword, arms and legs of the men flew off, and with each dagger thrown, blood gushed from their throats.

As he unleashed the power of the North, flashes of black light flickered whenever Sirius moved.

“What is this dark energy!?”

“My magic is being absorbed… Argh!”

The individuals present here would do any dirty deed for their own gain; they were truly the darkest of the dark.

Compared to the forces of the martial world, they were closer to the Black Mercenaries than the Celestial Demon Sect.

While the Celestial Demon Sect had not hesitated to resort to any means for power, the Black Mercenaries were individuals who would stop at nothing for their own gain.

Among the two, opinions in the martial world were divided on which was more wicked… Regardless, they were extreme black entities that should not exist in this world.

The Ultenstein Assembly here also fell into the category of extreme black.

To eradicate those black entities entirely, Sirius mercilessly unleashed his black power against them.

“Hah…!”

At that moment, an ice arrow flew towards Sirius’s side.

It was a counterattack from Balduin, the second-in-command of the Ultenstein Assembly, seizing an opportunity.

Sirius wielded his sword to deflect the ice, but soon a massive aura came rushing towards him.

Finally, Ultenstein charged at Sirius.

“Ugh!”

Clang!

As blades clashed, shockwaves rippled out around them.

Ultenstein’s greatsword was incredibly heavy. Experiencing it firsthand, one could tell that the magic imbued in the blade was exceptionally robust.

“To block the Lord’s strike…!”

However, Sirius, along with Balduin and the other officers, was stunned by Sirius’s ability to fend off Ultenstein’s attack.

Sirius was barely half the size of Ultenstein.

Yet, he calmly withstood Ultenstein’s assault, which was nothing short of astonishing.

“…!”

Sirius’s sword moved skillfully.

He attempted to pierce Ultenstein’s side, but Ultenstein deflected it using the broad side of his greatsword as a shield.

“Not bad, Ultenstein.”

“You too, Sirius.”

While Sirius was deploying the force of the Northern Lights, he couldn’t overpower Ultenstein’s magical sword.

Just like when he fought against Karlstain before, he still lacked the skill to absorb the magic sword of a 7th Circle Mage.

Therefore…

“Hmm…?”

Ultenstein, clashing blades, was taken aback.

The black aura on Sirius’s blade began to transform.

From a dark black that consumed everything… to a transparent white.

“…!”

Thud!

As the white blades collided, a chill pierced through Ultenstein’s blade.

It wasn’t just any coldness. It was the power of the White Wolf that froze even magic.

Realizing his magic protecting the blade was freezing white, Ultenstein tensed up.

Up until now, Sirius had been overlaying their darkness with his black.

Now, it was time for Sirius to completely erase their darkness with white.
