The Swordsman Genius Returnee Even Swallows Immortality

100

Night Crow.

Habell watched the fallen man rise from the mountain.

He felt a familiar aura from him.

Habell felt his own power in the man’s body.

And there is only one reason why it can be felt in the Night Crow.

‘God of the night.’

A lump of energy amplified by his own power through the Sword of Stars.

To look at it, the Night Crow also seemed to move with the same power.

Then Habell felt a clear aura inside the Night Crow’s body.

He could quickly realize what that aura was.

‘It’s the Sword of Stars. This.’

It is the Sword of Stars that has existed for quite some time.

I thought it would continue somewhere in the kingdom.

I never thought it would become the medium of the Night Crow.

Habell laughed in vain.

“It’s really vicious.”

A being created by mixing Habell’s and the tower’s misfortune absorbed by the Sword of Stars.

A being much more compatible than the chieftain who called himself the God of the Night that I faced downstairs.

That was the Night Crow.

“Somehow it’s less satisfying.”

Maybe it’s because it absorbed Habell’s misfortune, but the feeling of the blow was not good.

Cawwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!

At that moment, the Night Crow, who had raised its body, attacked Habell.

As Habell thought, the Night Crow didn’t seem to be shocked by the blow.

The hands on the wings stretched out towards Habell at once.

Habell immediately rolled his feet to avoid the hands and drew his sword.

Creak!

The moment the swung sword and the hands collided.

Havel frowned.

It felt like he was carving into a lump of clay that wasn’t alive.

Sure enough, the severed hand fell to the ground like clay.

And the spot where it fell turned pitch black.

It was the Night Raven’s unique trait called Territory Declaration.

Everything it touched would be permanently erased from the Tower.

The night would swallow and erase it.

In the meantime, the hand that had been cut off by Havel’s sword returned to its original state.

‘What an unpleasant creature.’

Even the fragments that were cut off would regenerate and destroy the surroundings.

It had every difficult condition imaginable.

The Night Raven’s attacks showed no signs of stopping.

The ground turned black every time he cut its body.

Before he knew it, the surroundings were completely covered in night, with nowhere to set foot.

In a way, it was the opposite of the night sky.

The ground was so pitch black that it made him think that.

However, the Night Raven that poured out the night showed no sign of shrinking.

Was its body infinite?

It continuously recovered, no matter how much he cut or tore it.

“Havel!”

Barias’ urgent voice came from afar.

Before he knew it, the entire mountain had been devoured by the Night Raven’s night.

If this continued, the kingdom would be next.

Havel didn’t want the kingdom to be destroyed either.

‘I should erase it all at once.’

The moment he left even a single bit of it,

It would definitely recover to its original form.

In that case, he had to make sure to blow it away.

‘I’ll stop exploring for now.’

The moment Havel imbued his sword with dawn,

Crack!

The ground that had turned into night suddenly started to bubble and foam.

Havel frowned when he saw that.

An arm suddenly burst out of the foam that exploded.

What followed that arm was a single Raven Human.

A Raven Human with no eye sockets, only a shape.

Like the Night Raven, it seemed to be made of the same liquid night.

Flop―.

As soon as it came out, it turned its body in a direction other than Havel.

Havel realized the Night Raven’s plan when he saw that.

“This bastard realized that I intended to kill it right away, so it put up a shield.”

Moreover, the problem is that the raven human that just appeared is not the only one.

Bubbles were rising from every path the ravens had passed.

If they were to explode on the 75th floor, it would be filled with ravens for the rest of its existence.

Caw, caw!

At that moment, thousands of raven heads cried out in unison.

Their laughter seemed to mock Havel.

As if to ask how a mere human could stop them.

The ravens, who were constantly laughing, were clearly intelligent beings.

Just as Havel had investigated what kind of being it was.

The ravens had done the same to Havel.

And this must have been the conclusion they came to.

Rather than taking Havel down.

They devised a way to tie him to the tower.

Havel let out a hollow laugh.

“You take people too lightly.”

Originally, ravens were definitely the most troublesome beings for an inspector.

Not only would they cause damage, but they would also cause additional damage by recovering.

However, they were too big for an inspector to kill at once.

If you were to classify them by who was best suited to deal with them, a wizard would be the most suitable.

‘So that’s it.’

Thanks to this, Havel realized how to overcome the 7th floor’s trial.

The tower always created a way for anyone to clear the floor to some extent.

You can tell just by looking at how the difficulty is adjusted to the climbers.

The tower always wanted the climbers to climb the tower.

So the trial that Havel was given.

Apart from his strength, a way to clear it was also created.

‘Originally, it would have been to get the cooperation of the anti-mage Adoris, the orc high mage who was on the previous floor.’

The high mage Adoris freely wielded curses.

Surely, he would have been able to suppress the ravens.

And in that gap, the subject of the trial would come out and stop the ravens.

This would have been the best picture.

However, Adoris does not exist in this world.

Because Havel had defeated him on the previous floor.

A world without the crazy high mage.

So the ravens were running wild as if they were invincible.

However, it seems that he doesn’t know.

That there are monsters in this world that are greater than high mages.

“If I don’t have teeth, I’ll use my gums.”

The light of dawn that was imbued within Havel’s sword began to grow even stronger.

Simultaneously, a dreary smile spread across Havel’s lips.

“If there’s no wizard, I’ll just do one better.”

Havel raised the sword imbued with the light of dawn towards the sky.

Thud!

At that moment, the space around Havel began to tremble.

In the midst of the sight of the entire space trembling…

The Night Raven sensed something strange and hurriedly launched an attack, but it was too late.

Flash!

The light of dawn that sprang forth from Havel’s raised sword stretched towards the sky.

Caw!

Was it because the light of dawn was too strong?

The heads of the surprised Night Raven shrieked and came to an abrupt stop.

However, the Night Raven soon noticed that there was no other significant blow.

The moment its thousands of heads blinked and looked around…

…it soon noticed one thing.

Starting from one point in the sky, thin threads of dawn were connected in a row.

The threads were thin, but they were extremely dense.

To the eye, they looked like nothing more than threads of light.

As it happened, the raven human created by the Night Raven reached the thread of light.

The moment the raven human, devoid of any fear, tried to cross the thread of light…

Screech!

The raven human was instantly eliminated by the thread of dawn.

It was as if it had vanished into thin air.

The heads of the Night Raven that noticed these were momentarily bewildered.

The raven humans possess the same nature as the Night Raven.

It possesses the power to recover no matter what attack it endured.

But what was this?

The Night Raven had been eliminated simply because it had touched a mere thread of light.

Havel laughed as he looked at the Bewildered Night Raven.

“A bird should be locked up in a cage like a bird.”

It was a complete provocation.

Caw!

The enraged heads of the Night Raven cried out in unison.

Simultaneously, its body swelled up and then poured out black liquid in all directions.

The liquid that poured out was entirely overnight.

As if each glob of night had a will of its own, they gently fell onto the cage of dawn created by Havel and began to build up a wall.

Havel swallowed a hollow laugh as he watched.

“Are you going to lock me up instead? Is that it?”

Moreover, the lumps of darkness had fallen on Habell too.

Even though Habell was a victim, it was a boon for the Night Ravens.

After all, they were filling that place with the night.

Before he knew it, Habell had ascended to the sky with nowhere to stand.

Soon, even this sky will be filled with night.

At that moment, a black, spike-like liquid surged up from below.

They relentlessly pursued Habell as he soared through the sky.

Before long, more than half of the Dawn Cage was filled with Night Ravens.

His body had also collapsed from its original form at some point.

This was because he had transformed into a thick liquid.

The only thing that remained in its form was the heads that stuck out and cried.

It was truly gruesome.

Habell hung upside down from the top of the Dawn Cage.

His silver hair, nearly white, fluttered slowly.

The Night Ravens’ bodies soared toward the cage in unison.

The sight of thousands of heads crying out at the same time was deafening.

Surely, they intended to devour Habell this way.

However, he failed to notice Habell’s eerie laughter.

“Why do you think I can’t shrink the cage?”

It was the moment the next words echoed.

Thud―.

At that moment, something rang out very briefly.

The Dawn Cage began to tighten up all at once.

Screeeech-!

The bodies of the Night Ravens that filled the cage began to melt away at once.

Cawwwwwwwww!

Thousands of ravens began to scream at the same time.

This was because the Dawn’s thread was melting away all of the Night Ravens’ bodies.

It was his blunder.

If only he had maintained his physical form.

Now that his body had swollen, he was exposed to the Dawn as it was.

The Night Ravens fluttered even higher into the air, struggling in pain.

He intended to grab Habell and escape this Dawn Cage by any means necessary.

Before his eyes, soaring in a final desperate struggle.

Habell was aiming his sword.

For a moment, the Night Raven felt like the world had stopped.

The light of dawn in his sword was growing stronger and stronger.

The tightening Dawn Cage.

The light of Habell’s dawn right before his eyes.

Trapped between a rock and a hard place, the Night Raven didn’t have many choices.

In the end, the raven’s role remained the same as ever.

To kill Habell.

Cawwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!

Thousands of ravens’ heads abruptly surged once more.

Soon enough, a pitch-black darkness filled the thousands of gaping beaks.

The darkness he had amassed, sacrificing his own night.

A body that would be consumed anyway.

That’s why he had started gathering darkness, intending to die together with Habell.

Cuckoo, cuckoo, cuckoo, cuckoo!

The space around the raven began to distort.

The body of the one who had drained all the night gradually vanished, replaced by a blinding whiteness.

Even the raven’s pitch-black star, which had been the medium within his body, could be seen.

The raven had poured out all his strength.

The moment the raven condensed all the night he had gathered.

Ping!

Endless night surged towards Habell with a single sound.

Raven Original

Endless Night

The night explosively devoured everything within the birdcage.

Even the sound was swallowed, leaving nothing audible.

Even the giant trees in the forest, quite a distance away, were uprooted by the explosive force.

If he were an ordinary person, Habell’s bones would have been crushed before the endless night even reached him.

Underneath his fluttering hair, Habell’s eyes are sharper.

The dawn light he had been continuously spewing out above his sword abruptly stopped.

And as if the world itself had stopped along with it, everything moved extremely slowly.

Habell’s pupils met the raven’s.

The raven had poured everything out against Havell.

Even if it was a broad daylight ordeal.

If the other party had used all their strength, wouldn’t it be wrong for him to do the same, right?

‘This place is an independent space created using the Dawn Birdcage, after all.’

Even if he used up all his strength, it wouldn’t cause any damage to the outside.

Without a shred of hesitation, Habell gathered his strength.

At the same time, he dropped down towards the raven, his stance unchanged as he thrust his sword forward.

The moment Habell touched the endless night.

Banpellion-ryu Dawn Swordsmanship

Dawn Heaven

The extended dawn light met the endless night the raven had unleashed.

The extended dawn light resembled tens of thousands of arrows.

It completely shattered the enormous mass of night, tearing it apart.

The dawn light that had torn through the endless night spread out in all directions.

The light of dawn finally reached the raven, piercing through the endless night.

And one of those lights of dawn,

was Habell.

The raven’s thousands of eyes met Habell’s.

The raven’s heads opened their mouths all at once.

They intended to swallow Habell whole.

“If you wish.”

However, Habell did not stop his descent.

“Then eat me.”

And Habell dug into the raven’s mouth.

Gulp-.

It was then that the raven moved its esophagus without thinking.

After a brief silence.

Crack.

Suddenly, a crack appeared in the raven’s body.

Crack, crack, crackle!

The crack began to grow larger and larger.

And finally, it spreads throughout its entire body.

Flash!

Light leaked out one by one through the cracks.

And the moment the light of dawn poured out of all the cracks.

Clang!

Finally, the raven’s body shattered with the sound of breaking glass.

The raven’s body scattered like glass shards.

And in the center of it all, Habell stood alone, his sword plunged to the ground.

It was the moment when the dawn brought down the raven.
