Unified Ranking (6)

Confrontation with Chris.

It was already the third time.

Kevin vividly remembered the previous events.

At the time of the first confrontation, Kevin was still only a beginner with a low understanding of swordsmanship.

'At the time, I thought it was an impossible match. Because Chris-sama was a genius swordsman that Dmitry knew, and I was nothing more than a slum-stomach. And the first thought that took hold of my mind after a disastrous defeat was that I was so pathetic and humble.'

Defeat.

It was a natural result.

Even though he knew it was impossible, Kevin could not accept the consequences of defeat.

Behind him was Roman Dmitry.

Even though Chris had told him how to move and with what intentions he was attacking him, Kevin was defeated without taking advantage of his advantage.

I was so ashamed of that.

I was so ashamed of myself that I couldn't sleep at the thought of my poor skill that I couldn't fill the gap even if I knew the correct answer, and that I dreamed of living with Roman Dmitry's sword to a modest level.

from that day on.

He was obsessed with training.

He vowed and vowed not to disturb himself in the future and not to feel such humiliation any more.

A sense of inferiority was the source of development.

He looked up to Chris and developed rapidly, and at some point, a strong desire to surpass him arose.

So naturally, the second confrontation took place.

When Roman Dmitry gave Chris a better sword than himself, the seething sense of inferiority could hardly accept reality.

And defeated again.

This time I was angry.

People called himself the demon of Dmitry.

He had developed enough, and he thought he was strong now, but the fact that he couldn't defeat Chris gave him great despair.

Now it has become a reality that we have to accept.

The fact that Chris is superior to him, the obvious fact that Roman Dmitry's true sword is not himself, but Chris.

thought over and over again.

I couldn't admit it either.

No matter how long it took, he wanted to prove his worth by defeating Chris.

It would have been since then. A little bit more fundamental theory.

Where does the difference between you and Chris come from, and whether there is no way to fill the gap simply due to the age gap.

That was madness.

acknowledged

Roman Dmitry became his life.

Roman Dmitry, who filled a being who lacked many things, had no choice but to become his whole life.

Time passed and it became today.

widely.

went on stage

Above the wide stadium, he could see Chris waiting for him.

'This time, I will definitely win.'

third fight.

You will never lose three times.

* * *

There was tension.

Chris and Kevin's confrontation drew everyone's attention to the extent that even the audience was careful about the sound of their breath.

whoever wins

A new history will be written.

With the tension rising up, Chris said.

"Kevin. As I prepared for this competition, I knew that I would eventually be standing here with you."

it was dull

People listened to the calm voice that came out.

"My relationship with you started a long time ago. At the time when Dmitry was just starting out, not many people were paying attention to you, but I thought that your gaze on me and your attitude might one day take my place."

It was a truth I wanted to deny.

Chris had worked hard to deny his rivalry with Kevin, but when he confirmed that he had defeated Ares, he knew the truth.

The rivalry had nothing to do with Kevin's development.

From the first time Kevin expressed his strong desire to win his fight, Kevin's existence was not simple for Chris.

Someday.

A being who will try to surpass itself.

He didn't know that the time would come so quickly, but Kevin worked relentlessly to stand in front of him.

'You can't find the past.'

Kevin at that time.

Kevin was just a ghetto boy.

Kevin couldn't even wield his sword properly.

A madman who, while learning basic swordsmanship to the point of absurdity, showed poison to the end against himself.

acknowledged

is a competitor

And competition was the foundation for development.

He will trample on his competitors and advance to a level that no one can reach.

"I have no intention of giving my place to anyone, including you. Kevin. This is a place I have prepared for you and everyone who crosses my position. Either take me down and prove myself, or... … ."

Sreung.

People swallowed dry saliva.

I was completely overwhelmed, and I couldn't take my eyes off of it.

"Brighten the value of my existence with three defeats."

Question-and-answer dance.

No more words were needed.

flutter.

The referee's signal fell.

At the same time, the two beings facing each other rushed towards each other like crazy.

Chris vs Kevin.

Make sure you reading at koreanmtl . online

There was a picture people expected.

I expected such a confrontation worthy of fame, but the situation that unfolded on the stadium was a clash beyond imagination.

pod.

Quiet rumble rumble.

The lead was Chris.

With a quick attack that ripped apart the space in an instant, Kevin dug into the swirling space with an aura without moving to dodge.

There were scratches on the body.

Blood was splattered everywhere, but the attack aimed at the vital point was completely blocked and the speed of attack did not stop.

realm of control.

It was power from the start.

Kevin, who came into range, swung his sword like lightning, and exchanged a number of workshops in a blink of an eye.

Kaang!

Kaka Kaka Kaka!

If the attack is blocked.

They always attacked the vital points.

When Kevin tried to counterattack by letting out an attack, Chris shot Kevin's presence and launched an attack with the speed and destructive power of his pressing.

The world was intricately entangled with attacks from overhead, left, right, and lower body.

Curl rumble.

It was an overwhelming presence.

Kevin showed a one-sided performance until he got to this position, but Chris' swordsmanship was holding down even Kevin like that.

Aura was the difference.

Aura's destructive power made the difference between Kevin and Chris, in a situation where he couldn't overwhelm Chris in skill.

Above all, the appearance of Chris, who was not at all afraid of a battle that took place in close quarters, blocked Kevin's anomalous nature at once.

Quang!

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!

Aura exploded.

He pushed Kevin into close range.

With each intense crash, Kevin's body swayed and pushed back.

'strong.'

Kris.

Dmitry's glare.

Being in memory has developed again.

More than Chris in the first fight, Chris in the second fight, the existence of Chris, who develops beyond his own growth, weighed on Kevin strongly.

I had no choice but to admit.

If Chris had been the kind of person who walked in place, he would have knelt before this third fight.

flash.

Papa Papa Pang!

The space was torn apart.

Attacks that could not be seen with the naked eye came from all directions, and Kevin did not react to seeing, but reacting to something caught by his sensitive senses.

It was just like that. Chris' attack passed right in front of him.

Obviously, he thought he attacked first, but what happened after that was Chris, who casually took the attack and tried to counterattack.

pod.

turned his head

Blood spattered from his face.

Despite the shallow torn wounds despite being protected with an aura, Kevin captured the opponent's image with unshakable eyes.

You just have to be more daring.

You need to be more reckless.

So that.

difference can be bridged.

Chris was obviously stronger than him, but he didn't think he was weak even on a life-or-death stage.

'The first half of the Celestial Swordsmanship.'

Quang!

Quiet rumble rumble.

hit hard

When they attacked, as soon as they attacked, he pushed Chris into existence as if he would never back down.

His eyes gleamed with madness. How long have you been waiting for this moment?

When he first lost, he didn't dare compare to Chris, but now he has enough odds to hold his breath.

will win

will surely win

Quang!

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!

The counterattack was fierce.

Chris's aura exploded, but at such a close distance that each other's existence was entangled, Chris and Kevin did not back down.

It was a matter of self-esteem. Results and content. I hoped to win both.

It's not that I won as a result, I wanted to overwhelm the opponent from the beginning.

It was tight.

The more you bleed.

The harder you hit it.

My mind became clear.

As Kevin confronted the opponent with a maddened face, he remembered why he had targeted Chris.

Dozens of attacks.

Dozens of defenses.

never allowed

It was only when he destroyed this existence that stood up to him, he knew that it would become the strongest sword Roman Dmitry would be proud of.

That's why I targeted Chris.

The feeling of inferiority stemmed from the superiority of the other person, and in Kevin's world, Chris was the brightest person ever.

flash.

my forearm was cut

In a situation increasingly stained with blood, Kevin was convinced.

this fight.

He will definitely win.

* * *

After the second defeat.

Kevin was in trouble.

Make sure you reading at koreanmtl . online

He knew that he could not overcome Chris by simply swinging his sword more and working hard.

'A change is needed.'

Chris was a hard working genius.

He is not the type of person who is complacent with his talents, but works as hard as he does himself, so no matter how much he developed, the gap between him and Chris could not be filled.

The result of the second confrontation told reality.

The fact that he couldn't win just by living the same life as before, Kevin's troubles bit his tail as time went on.

strength.

speed.

fence.

lagged behind in every way.

In the general category, there was no strength that could surpass Chris, but he outranked him by just one.

anomalous.

out of the box.

Kevin focused on that fact.

The Celestial Swordsmanship is a really great and powerful weapon, but I knew that in a battle of destructive power, it could not surpass Chris.

He is not Roman Dmitry.

If it had the same destructive power as Roman Dmitry in a single blow, he would choose the Orthodox method, but he couldn't fight like Roman Dmitry even if he had the same weapon.

I changed my mind.

You need your own weapon.

It was a huge change.

Kevin, who was a boy from a slum, trained according to Roman Dmitry's instructions, and when he learned the magic sword technique, he was still within the framework.

Unlike his anomalous tendencies, he was born through the teachings of others thoroughly.

Kevin threw out the mold that held him in.

The moment I thought about it and decided that it was necessary, I made a new field by making the things I had learned into one.

like that.

He made his own weapon.

What was unfinished in the situation he was facing against Ares turned into a perfect result as he prepared for this tournament.

As a result.

Edwin Hector, a strong contender for the title, fell to his knees against him.

pod.

Quiet rumble rumble.

It was an opportunity.

The moment Chris attacked one after another, Kevin's eyes as they let them go became sharp.

single shot.

I had to fight this attack.

If he doesn't give Chris a meaningful blow, a fierce battle will end in his own defeat.

'Reverse flow of mana (逆流).'

Curl rumble.

The inside was boiling.

Instead of exploding the mana of the dantian, he recovered all the mana with the dantian and suppressed the mana.

It was an unusual way. Backflow is against the flow of nature, and Kevin's body screams at the sudden change that is taking place inside.

It was a huge pain. It was a pain and shock enough to tear the insides apart for ordinary people, but the ghost magician's regenerative power withstood the backflow.

Then.

'According to the structure of the Celestial Swordsmanship, it explodes at once.'

In reality, it was only a fleeting moment.

1 second.

No, less than that.

In the act of letting off Chris' attack and attempting something, a change took place inside Kevin.

Curl rumble.

Danjeon's mana was intertwined.

The mana that was about to advance and the mana that flowed back got tangled together, causing a powerful explosion at the moment Kevin wanted.

'The first three seconds of the Celestial Swordsmanship.'

with this attack.

Defeated Edwin Hector.

This time, I did my best.

As the backflowing mana started to erupt, mana exploded all over his body, and Kevin instantly dug into the space.

Quang.

Papa Papa Papa Papa.

Powerful explosion!

Jungwon Moorim's method and Alexander's method harmonized.

While dealing with mana using the dandan, Alexander's eruption added explosive power to his body.

It instantly made the distance with Chris useless.

The distance with the opponent was shortened in an instant, and a blazing aura erupted as if it would destroy the world.

single shot.

It was a speed that no one could react at.

When he completed this, he was convinced that nothing in the world could be stopped except Roman Dmitry.

flash.

divided the space.

finished.

In a realm of time that people would not even recognize, Kevin's powerful blow cut off Chris' body.

That moment.

"… … !"

I opened my eyes.

He looked in disbelief.

Even the ghost magician's sensitive sense, which he raised to the extreme, could not figure out what had happened to him.

poof.

It spewed out blood like a fountain.

a fleeting moment.

Chris' attack pierced the space.

It was an extremely powerful swift sword that no one except Roman Dmitry could grasp.
