Eternally Regressing Knight Chapter 537

537
Shinar’s gaze passed over Ragnar. He didn’t even need the keen sense of an elf to check his condition.

‘Not dead.’

Ragnar was still holding his body up with his half-sword as a cane, his feet on the ground instead of his feet, his eyes still open and looking somewhat loose.

‘If you approach, it seems like you’ll have to swing your sword a few times.’

Even if a projectile flies in, it will block it once or twice.

Of course, I don’t know what would happen if the enemy, holding iron bars and glaring at me right in front of me, decided to throw away his life, but that was something I would only say when I was not confident.

One of the two made an unspoken agreement to face the opposing general, and the general targeted Ragna first.

That’s how the roles were divided.

‘I should take him with me since he’s alive.’

If Ragnar had died, Sinar would have come next.

It was right for them to fight like that, since knights are not people who double their strength by adding one to another.

Although Ragnar appears to be on the verge of death, I believe he is a human being who has enough to live. Other than that, the enemies before him were not a threat.

Then the commander rolled his eyes and started to write.

“There will be no surrender! We will kill! We will all have our names in the Hall of Fame!”

Azpen built a large hall in the center of the capital, so it was an honor to have his name inscribed there.

It was a hall where only the names of the dead were engraved, and among them, it was a hall for those who died for the country.

If your name was engraved in the hall of fame, your family would receive a reward each year.

Some for honor after death.

Some for their families and descendants.

So the armored infantrymen all took out the pouches hidden inside their armor waistbands and emptied them into their mouths.

Because I didn’t even measure the amount, the powder scattered around my mouth and fell to the floor.

But what is clear is that most of the powder entered their mouths, mixed with their saliva, and went straight to their stomachs.

Inside the helmet, the veins on their foreheads and temples stood out.

It’s not like they could suddenly use Will just because they took some medicine or something.

It just allows you to forget the pain for a little while, forget your fear, and let your strength double.

The drug called ‘Fury’, which could only be found on the black market, was used to stimulate the emotion of anger and forcefully draw out one’s potential.

“My country!”

A soldier with strong patriotism shouted. As he shouted, blood vessels burst from his eyes and tears of blood flowed.

Some of them suffered nosebleeds as a side effect of the drug. No, five of them collapsed on the floor, their limbs shaking.

It’s because my body couldn’t handle the power of the medicine.

The rest of them started to pound the ground and run, their bloodshot eyes wide open and filled with madness, drooling blood and other things.

An ordinary person would be terrified if they encountered something like this, and even a courageous person would feel the creeps.

It’s not like they don’t have feelings for them because they’re knights, so it’s right to feel at least a little bit of discomfort, but that wasn’t the case for Shinar.

She calculated coolly.

‘I can’t catch that.’

I just had that thought as I watched the commander running away behind the guys who were rushing at me after taking the medicine.

“Wow!”

Shinar swung his Leaf Sword at the man who was rushing at him, drooling blood and other things.

Just like before, he cut off the opponent’s neck before the black blade that was emitting energy could even reach him. Shinar was on the level of a knight, but he knew that it did not increase his weight.

That is, if he gave distance to that reckless charge, he could fall and get hurt.

Of course, that never happened. It wasn’t a metaphor, but it really wouldn’t have happened even if I had closed my eyes and fought.

Tong- As soon as he kicked the ground, he flew away as if he had become a butterfly. The butterfly’s wings were like a sword that resembled a leaf, and the sword repeatedly struck the enemy’s neck and split his head.

Move as much as you need, at the time you need, and kill only what you need.

She did it. That was enough.

The soldiers who had eaten Fury rushed towards Ragnar, but no one was able to get close to him.

If you leave Ragna alone, you can catch the one who ran away.

‘Should I do that?’

Sinar didn’t feel the need to do so, and he couldn’t leave his seat either.

It’s not like Ragnar would just take it easy if we left him alone, but it’s true that he was in a critical condition.

It’s true that shoulders and knees are also problems, but if you don’t take care of the scar on your eyelid quickly, it could evolve into a one-eyed person.

So this was more rational and efficient.

In this way, Sinar massacred all the soldiers who had taken the drug, and in the meantime, the commander escaped.

* * *

‘Die.’

Corwin’s insight was like an innate talent from a young age. That’s why his insight came to a conclusion after several clashes.

No matter what, I’ll die. If I hold out here, I’ll die. That’s a predetermined outcome, a fixed fate that won’t change.

That was how my future looked. It was a fate as determined as the name of my sword.

His choice, gripped by fear, was to escape.

It wasn’t something I did with any thought in mind.

The water fight using the future time was completely useless to Rem. It gave Corwin extreme fear.

Why doesn’t what works for Barnes work for me?

The reason was that Rem didn’t think about anything until just before attacking.

I just fight based on instinct. I always find the best path in the moment-to-moment decisions.

That’s how he fought.

The sling that ripped the air with a whooshing sound moved and blew the head off the assassin, whether it was the swamp of Monter or the thugs of Monter.

But even that movement did not catch my eye.

‘Does this make sense?’

It works. Rem just turned the sling with the intention of throwing whatever he saw, whether it was a rock or a steel ball.

There was no calculation in his head.

It was all a spontaneous decision.

It means choosing the best direction at the time without worrying or pondering, but can a person always choose the right path in an urgent moment?

That’s impossible. It was the same for Rem.

Even as a red aura swirled behind him and his red eyes turned into mist, Rem thoughtlessly tried to split Corwin’s crown.

Corwin barely managed to block the sword, reading Rem’s intentions that were only visible for a split second, and Red Eye stabbed the curved dagger, Chris, into Rem’s back.

The thing contained in the curved blade was a poisonous substance.

To cut to the chase, Rem wasn’t stabbed by the dagger.

It was because of the sudden appearance of a pale, legless wolf, biting and holding onto the dagger’s blade.

“I never said I would fight alone.”

Rem muttered. It didn’t matter if I didn’t make the right choice. If I had the ability to fill that gap.

The red eyes instantly twisted the dagger handle and released it as soon as they saw the wolf. Then, the blade turned red and emitted light. It was an act of gathering magical power and exploding it.

“Eat, cloud.”

At those words, the divine wolf that Rem had summoned swallowed a red-glowing dagger and ran to one side.

A loud bang was heard from afar. The wolves scattered and then returned to their original form.

The only thing that had gotten smaller than before was the body.

The wolf had something like a cloud instead of legs, and it moved as if it was flying. It was impossible not to look away from the sight of it swallowing and eating a dagger filled with poison, so Corwin and Red Eyes also briefly shared a glance.

Rem threw the sling in his left hand, lifted his right foot, and struck the ground with the sole of his foot, then brought the axe down vertically.

The sling pierced the head of the assassin who was throwing the net from behind, and the foot broke the collarbone of the one who was hiding underground and approaching.

The axe was aimed at Red-Eye’s eye, but if you look at all these movements, even though the swing of the axe was the last, the blade had already reached Red-Eye’s head between the time he threw the sling and kicked it.

All the movements were instantaneous and also bold.

If Corwin, who was standing behind Rem at this time, had stabbed her with his sword, it seems like he would have been stabbed somewhere.

He turned his back to Corwin so boldly. Of course, if he had stabbed him, he would have blocked it. The wolf called Cloud was far away, but he could just retrieve the axe and block it.

Because we’ve been fighting in a similar way since a while ago.

It was a situation where it was annoying to corner one guy and beat him up because the other guy would help him out when he got cornered.

But the guy behind me didn’t stab me with his sword, he just pulled it out.

“I’m ahead!”

What’s more, he even did something dirty at the end. He pretended to attack and then ran away.

His natural gift for the future gave him the ability to transform pressure into writing, and Corwin took advantage of that.

He acted like he was going to pounce on me right away. It felt real.

It seemed like I had completely forgotten how angry I was over things like sticking with ghouls and such.

However, Rem knew this was a bluff.

The trick Corwin showed me a little while ago was already familiar to me, as I had seen it countless times while sparring with Encred.

‘It’s fake?’

The judgment was made, but the hand did not stop.

The axe fell straight into the red eye.

Red Eyes took out two kris and blocked the axe. The two curved daggers and the axe paused in midair as if they were struggling, but the daggers were pushed straight down.

Bang! Kkakak!

Rem then used his strength to swing the axe downwards.

Tidding, the trajectory of the axe that broke one of the dagger blades was slightly off and cut diagonally.

“Ugh!”

The red-eyed ear caught in the axe blade was cut off. He immediately showed his talent of turning into mist, but even that was useless against a falling weapon.

In the first place, a weapon made by pouring magical power into it was a descending weapon, and Rem’s axe was even able to seal the magic and serve as a vessel for the magic for a while.

It was literally a mass made of magical powers.

You shouldn’t use sorcery here.

“Hey, that’s real.”

Rem tried not to miss the traces of the guy who disappeared in the meantime, but there was nothing she could do about it.

He didn’t know that she would run away like that.

It was just a shame that I was conscious and alert.

Well, there’s nothing we can do about the guy who went.

Rem thought about that and looked into the red eyes again.

“Even if the compatibility is good, the result will be the same.”

Rem roughly figured out the source of the opponent’s power and argued the pros and cons in terms of sorcery, but Red Eyes had barely risen to the rank of a knight after awakening the sealed ancient soul and appeasing it, so he was unable to understand the sorcery principles that Rem spoke of.

‘코윈 이 개새끼가.’

Instead, after seeing Corwin flee, he came to the conclusion that the situation was similar to a ghoul’s genitals.

A split second’s decision can mean the difference between life and death.

‘Leave it to me.’

Then, the voice that had been tempting him all along was heard again.

It was a whisper from a sealed ancient spirit.

This is something you would never normally hear.

The Ancient Spirit was a type of vampire and had only one wish.

Blood, blood, blood, and more blood.

Because they are creatures crazy about gluttony.

But what if I stay still and end up dying?

“You told me never to do that.”

Although Barnes forbade it, Red Eyes felt it was an unavoidable situation and mortgaged a part of his soul to the ancient vampire.

But I had no intention of just taking it, so I made one last desperate move.

I was trying to sign a contract where I would give up only some of the money and keep the rest, but that was an arrogant idea.

I believed that one day I would subdue this vampire’s soul and find other ancient souls to become an unprecedented soul knight.

“It’s my body now.”

The ancient vampire’s Will took control of his body in an instant. A moment’s delay was all it took.

“This is the present world.”

The vampire spoke. Rem perked up her ears. It was a language she had never heard before. It was only natural. There was a clear difference between the language used in the vampire’s time and now.

So is that a problem?

It didn’t matter.

The vampire’s two eyes glowed red. They were mysterious and alluring. He looked straight at Rem and said.

“Come and bow your head. This is your eye level and mine… … .”

Bam! Bam!

“What are you saying?”

The vampire knew that the charm spell wasn’t working.

At the same time, the axe that this ignorant bastard was swinging disappeared from sight for a moment.

That axe just split my head open.

The blood vessels were tangled between the vertically split skulls, and the two halves of the skull were being reassembled into one.

It was a sight that made me feel sick just looking at it.

The process of regeneration, with blood and veins tangled together, was clearly visible.

“This guy!”

Even before the head was fully attached, the vampire became angry.

“How many pieces can you do?”

Rem spoke nonchalantly to the vampire and swung his axe again, splitting its head.

Bam!

Only after the axe passed did the vampire raise his arm. It was a very late reaction.

Even if the ancient vampires had used all their talents, they would have been at the level of a knight, but now they had just taken over his body.

I didn’t have enough time to properly control my body. I needed an adaptation period.

Of course, Rem wouldn’t lose if he adapted.

There was quite a gap between the two.

The axe danced and the vampire was speechless after that. Then the axe broke the vampire’s tongue and fangs, so it was natural.

The mass, split into dozens of pieces, wriggled and scattered, emitting gray smoke.

Rem simply spoke, swinging his axe into the air before him.

“You asked the wrong question.”

It was fortunate that my axe didn’t seem to hate it.

Rem’s gaze turned towards the one who ran away.

Even though one guy ran away, it still felt like the job was done.

Rem took off. It was time to either chase after the runaway or join the captain.
