The Duke’s Madness - The Duke’s Madness chapter 93

Barance’s gaze narrowed.

‘What is that guy all of a sudden?’

Mana increased compared to the first time I saw it.

It was a tremendous level compared to the age estimated to be extramarital, but it was beyond that level now.

Ugh-!

A storm of unrefined mana was swirling around the body of that mercenary named Dawn.

After appreciating the bizarre scene for a while, Barance slowly opened his mouth.

“Amazing. Did you suddenly get a chance in that short time?’

Arthur laughed at his words.

“Giyeon? hmm… yes. I got it.”

“I’m curious. can you tell me?”

“I can tell you, but if you listen, you’ll probably get angry?”

Arthur’s words shocked Barance.

“I hope you… .”

Arthur laughed at Barance’s speechless appearance.

At that smile, Barance burst into laughter.

“her! You stole and ate my things!?”

Arthur shrugged.

“It steals. I got it as a fair reward.”

“repair? Your reward is a thousand gold. Not Dragon Heart. You dare touch my things?”

With these words, wild life emanated from Barance’s body.

Arthur, who faced the momentum head-on, burst into exclamations.

“oh… Are you still on your toes?”

“Not enough to kill you.”

Arthur, who seemed to be grinning, was worried.

‘hmm… how will we do it.’

Although one of his throats had been cut, Barance still seemed to be full of energy.

Clap-!

In the meantime, Chilhwang’s Casillas and Paran also looked fine.

Arthur, who had been stroking his chin, shrugged.

“Whatever happened like this, I have no choice but to kill them all.”

“… ?”

“I also want to test the return of my prime, and it went well.”

Casillas laughed and pushed the spear.

“A mercenary brat is killing us?”

With these words, Casillas jumped up from his seat and swung the spear encased in sword energy.

shhh-!

Arthur, who watched the blow, raised his magic sword.

At that moment, Casillas’ waist was split in half.

“… ?”

At that sight, Barance opened his mouth.

It was no different from the blue one next to it.

Only Arthur laughed.

“Wow… Yes, it tastes like this.”

“… … .”

“You have to be cut like this to wield a knife.”

Arthur smiled with satisfaction and turned the magic sword around.

Ugh-!

At the same time, the sword spirit surrounding the demonic sword scattered light.

Barance came to his senses and burst into exclamations.

“her… This is amazing.”

At the same time, Paran jumped out of the seat next to him.

Dig-!

The blue sword also surged up.

Maybe it’s because I saw Casillas’ death a while ago.

There was no carelessness or composure in the expression of blue.

Arthur, who was watching him, smiled.

“Voila.”

“… ?”

“It’s bread!”

As soon as Blue’s eyes opened, fire came out of the Beast’s muzzle.

bang-!

The astonished Paran turned around to avoid it, but the range was so wide that he could not dodge all of them.

Thanks to that, one arm was blown off, and Arthur did not miss the gap.

puck.

Arthur stretched out his sword and inserted it into Farran’s abdomen.

Paran, who vomited blood, struggled to survive somehow, but that was it.

“… Aagh!”

A light current flowing through the demonic sword surrounded by sword energy.

The moment the current exploded, Paran died with his mouth open.

Barance, who watched the scene, shut his mouth.

“… … .”

In that silence, Arthur turned his head.

At the moment when Barance’s eyes met and he flinched involuntarily, Arthur raised his sword and said.

“Now it’s Barance’s turn, do you have anything to say?”

“… what?”

“A will. I don’t think I can tell you, but I will remember.”

At Arthur’s words, Barance blinked his eyes.

Then he burst into wild laughter and shouted.

“You cheeky bastard!! Who do you think I am now!”

Along with the cry, wild magic power rose from Barance’s body.

“Hoo… .”

Arthur, who burst into exclamation, stroked his chin.

The aura now manifested by Barance is a wizard with at least 70 years of experience.

‘A while ago, the vice-captain of the pirates was 80 years old, so it’s right below that.’

With that level of skill, he was capable of being a palace mage as well as being the magic leader of a kingdom.

‘If it were me who couldn’t express swordsmanship… He must have died right away.’

However, it was different now that he could express his sword skills.

Arthur lowered his stance while clutching his sword.

At that moment, swordsmanship and momentum exploded.

Kwawang-!

Arthur licked his lips in that nostalgic feeling.

“ha… Are you going crazy with excitement?”

I shouldn’t be crazy, but today I really wanted to relax.

With that thought, Arthur jumped up.

* * *

Arthur jumped out of his seat.

At the same time, Undine and the gnomes worked miracles.

bang-!

In response to that miracle, Barance also created a fake miracle.

In the middle of the power struggle, Arthur, who used the Space Leap, threw out a sword surrounded by sword energy.

“… !”

Surprised, Barance manifested magic.

A huge fire pit spewed out tremendous heat.

But Arthur did not back down.

Shaak-!

As long as he was wearing swordsmanship, there was nothing he couldn’t cut.

Arthur, who cut the fire with his magic sword, raised the Beast.

bang-!

The bombs that went off with an explosion barely passed by Barance.

However, in the aftermath, the center of Barance collapsed, and Arthur did not miss that gap.

Chew-!

A demonic sword wrapped in sword energy passed through Barance’s abdomen.

Barance shouted harshly along with the scattering drops of blood.

“How dare you, worm!”

With a cry, the wounded abdomen was repaired.

Arthur, who burst into admiration at the sight, used the space jump once again.

“… !”

Surprised, Barance also used a short-range teleport.

At the same time, lightning from the sky pierced the place where Barance was standing.

bang!

“… … .”

Barance, who was watching the scene, trembled involuntarily.

Imagining that I would have been hit by that lightning if I hadn’t escaped in time, my heart felt cold.

In the meantime, Arthur, who had the magic sword over his shoulder, grinned.

“oh… For a mage, you are proficient in combat.”

Barance, who came to his senses at that smile, burst out laughing.

“You talk to me like that?”

“Aren’t you a wizard? Then this would be a compliment.”

With these words, Arthur disappeared.

Barance flinched.

‘What the hell is that? Is it not a teleport, but a lineage ability?’

So what is that lightning about?

Was that guy actually a wizard?

By the way, you deal with swordsmanship?

My confused mind was not properly organized.

In the meantime, Arthur’s sword appeared in front of him and rushed.

bang-!

Barance was startled and manifested magic.

The result was a complete decision.

Black energy flashed through the magic that was cut like paper.

Barance screamed and used the teleport.

But I couldn’t completely avoid it.

Slow-!

His chest was cut and blood gushed out.

It wasn’t a deep wound, but it was enough to feel the pain.

Barance bit his lip and thought.

‘What the hell is that bastard! No matter how many dragon heart pieces I ate, it suddenly… .’

But I couldn’t think deeply.

It was because Arthur swung his sword again at some point.

Kwak Kwa Kwam-!

A ghastly sword came aiming at the neck, and the spirits aimed at the back and sides of the magic.

bang-!

And in the sky, lightning was striking from earlier.

In that memory, Barance recalled.

‘Ghost Willett Cristol.’

A magic swordsman who met by chance and gave him an intuition of death.

Thinking this far, Barance shouted harshly.

“okay… I was annoyed from the start!”

Arthur flinched to a halt.

“yes?”

“Willet… I’ve been feeling it ever since I hung out with that bastard. You said you would use it moderately and throw it away, but you ignored this feeling for no reason.”

At his words, Arthur narrowed his eyes.

“oh… Is this old Willett’s past?”

“Keuk… Did you say Dawn?”

“yes. It’s Dunn.”

“How much do you know about your broker’s past?”

Arthur tilted his head.

“Well… A narrow-minded and gruff person, but a soft and warm person on the inside?”

“Are you soft and warm on the inside? ha ha ha ha! The ghost, Willett Cristol? You are talking funny!”

Barance spat out phlegm and fired a blazing eye.

“Do you know why your broker is called a ghost? no you don’t know… The [massacre] that happened then. Since the massacre was completely eliminated, they are called ghosts.”

Arthur was intrigued and asked.

“What is a carnage?”

“He killed a thousand civilians by himself.

“… ?”

“But do you know why? It’s because I got a request! There was no grudge, no purpose! I just gave you money and you killed a thousand civilians!”

Arthur groaned.

“oh my god… A thousand civilians.”

“But the world doesn’t know that. Why? It’s because those high-ranking people who commissioned Willett Cristol at the time erased that fact!”

Barance laughs and grabs my forehead.

“Out of a thousand civilians, how many children are there? Since we erased one village, there must be at least 100 people. We don’t do that either! It’s on these goddamn back streets, but at least you have a sense of duty and conscience!”

“… … .”

“But that bastard Willett is different. A loyal dog who will do anything when asked. okay… What an asshole.”

Arthur stroked his chin.

In the meantime, Barance was lucky.

“But shall I tell you something even more surprising? At that time, Willet Cristol killed more than a thousand civilians.”

“… sure?”

“The colleague who caused the massacre together.”

“… !”

“I even killed my comrades. He even sold out his comrades in order to create a clear disguise.”

Arthur stroked his chin.

‘oh… To think that he even killed a colleague for complete silence.’

In the meantime, Barance revealed his true magic.

Ugh-!

[Dazzle] and [Illusion].

It was his true magic that penetrated the inner world of humans and shook them at will.

* * *

[Dazzle] and [Illusion]

With this magic, he ascended to the Seven Emperors Cedar, and was able to shake the grip of the Prime Kingdom.

So he had no doubts.

‘When I was dealing with Willet, I lost this magic, but now it’s different.’

As long as my real magic was manifested, if no one had ever been subjected to a stronger ‘hypnosis’ than this, they could not distinguish reality from virtual reality without exception.

That would be no different for that monstrous swordsman.

Barance, who gently raised the corner of his mouth, shouted to shake Arthur a little more.

“You are under such a person. Do you understand the situation now?”

“… … .”

“A human who has betrayed his comrades once can betray them at any time. Besides, you’re not even a colleague. It’s a hand that can be used and discarded at any time.”

“… … .”

“So you don’t have to argue with me. Do you want a piece of dragon heart? Then I’ll give you anything! Suga right now! Open that monster’s heart and take it!”

Arthur raised an eyebrow.

At that smile, Barances raised his fever and shouted.

“If we join hands, a very plausible picture will be completed. A master swordsman and wizard? No one will be able to stop us!”

Arthur stroked his chin.

“… Hmm that’s right so.”

Arthur’s head tilted.

“Is that your will, Mr. Barance?”

“… ?”

“I don’t think I can remember all of them because it’s too long for a will. I’ll just remember it the way I feel comfortable.”

Barance flinched.

‘yet… Isn’t it magic?’

Surely there must be magic now?

Along with the thoughts, Barance shouted urgently.

“Did you not hear me? If you stay under Willett, you will be betrayed! One day you will be killed! In that case, hold my hand!”

Arthur shrugged.

“What could it be? But Elder Willett’s betrayal isn’t a reason to keep you alive, is it?”

“… … .”

“Is that the end of your talk, Mr. Barnes?”

Barances fell silent at the question.

“you… How come you don’t hallucinate?”

“yes?”

“Usually this should cause hallucinations, but how come you don’t?”

Arthur scratched his head.

“well? But when did you hallucinate? You never knew?”

Seeing that, Barance burst out laughing.

“You’ve never had hallucinations stronger than me? But how are you still alive?”

Arthur’s gaze narrowed at these words.

“Looks like he was messing with something behind his back. He is a really mean person.”

With these words, Arthur jumped up.

He came to his senses and fired the Barance magic.

At that moment, swirling black smoke engulfed not only the stopped train, but also the corpses of Casillas and Paran.

Arthur, who was watching the scene, narrowed his gaze.

‘It’s dangerous. If you’re not careful, you’ll get hit.’

In order to cut it, I had to approach it, but it seemed like it would be swallowed up before I could get it wrong.

Arthur, who stepped back for a moment with judgment, exhaled a breath.

“Whoa… .”

Then, he raised the level of the sword held in his hand to the maximum.

Papa-pa-pa-!

The soaring sword grew as if it would reach the sky.

As it was, Arthur murmured as he deflected his sword obliquely.

‘Swordsmanship is a season that cuts off everything. And the slash… .’

The secret weapon that shoots the sword.

With his thoughts, Arthur lowered his sword.

That moment.

“… … !”

The magic created by Barance was broken in two.

“… A slash?”

With a murmur, Barance’s mouth opened.

At the same time, Arthur, who was born with a space jump, inserted a knife into his chest.

“… Kuck!”

With a short moan, Barans’ body fell to the ground.

Arthur, who was on top of him, drew his sword and said.

“It’s over, Mr. Barance.”

At Arthur’s words, Barance trembled and muttered.

“Keuk… I’m going to die to this kid?”

Barance, who vomited blood, flashed his eyes.

“… Don’t like me for killing me. You touched the beehive.”

“A beehive?”

“Chilhwang and… pirate. You just touched these two groups… . You broke the taboo of this floor.”

Arthur laughed.

“Do you know what the characteristics of those who died at my hands are?”

“… … ?”

“You will be in big trouble. What are you going to do next? Guys with back stomachs always say this.”

The dying Barance’s eyes widened.

“… … .”

The skin of Barance, who was coughing up blood with his mouth open, rapidly deteriorated.

The aging that had been prevented by magic came belatedly.

At that moment when Arthur watched the scene quietly, Barance muttered in a weak voice.

“Can I leave a will?”

Arthur nodded.

“Please speak.”

“If you search my chest, you will find a card. Keep half of the money in it, and give the other half to Suga.”

Arthur’s eyes widened.

“oh… ?”

In the meantime, Barance’s breath stopped.

Arthur, who had been silently watching the scene, murmured.

“hmm… You mean you became a father in the end?”

Barance was a monster.

He seems to have returned to human form at the last moment.
