The Youngest Assassin Is a Swordsman Genius

Episode 11

Riverrun’s last patriarch, Lucas.

He was a person who lovingly took care of the entire family, and to me, he was the father of my previous life.

My father never lost sight of the position of the strongest man on the Revius Continent even for a moment.

Although he was such a strong and unrivaled person, he made a serious mistake.

A naive belief that anyone who has risen to the top of the world will be just as fair in the game as he is.

The judgment of accepting the reconciliation talks straight forward led to the destruction of the Riverrun family.

Seeing my father’s face again seemed to bring back the misery of that time.

‘It was definitely a fight worth fighting if my father was here.’

Resurrected through the Seal of Deinox, I learned new facts about the war 18 years ago.

That the Landsvalger family did not directly participate in the war.

‘The Landswalger family played a huge role in my father’s murder. That’s why I was able to take a step back without participating in the full-scale invasion.’

Thanks to being born as a direct descendant of Landsvalger, I realized that the choice of my family was unavoidable.

But that didn’t mean he could forgive his enemies.

In particular, facing the face of his father in his lifetime, a terrible anger welled up first.

“Ahh…….”

Suddenly, the figure in front of me became blurry.

It seemed that tears were running down my face before I knew it.

‘children! Sir, there’s a huge speck in your eye.’

When I closed my eyes and opened them, my vision became clearer.

But at that very moment, wasn’t the blue sword light approaching right in front of me?

Quaching!

“Keep it off!”

Reflexively blocking the sword attack, I staggered back.

It was because the shock was so strong that I couldn’t control my body properly.

Whoops!

It was a dark blue aura trapped in a group of white lights, it was definitely Dancheon Ilseom.

The vivid senses of the fingertips, the sword that the father in my memory used to enjoy.

The eyes that looked at me with a subtle smile as I lived like a hanryang.

Swearing came out of me at the very same look.

“Damn it.”

The ordeal of the tower was supposed to end only when the opponent was eventually defeated.

The first trial was like that, so the second one won’t be much different.

But how on earth could he cut the vivid image of his father?

‘Why such a dog-like ordeal… … .’

I tried to hold the black dragon sword with force in my grip, but the fighting spirit that had already been broken did not come back.

Gee-in! Push profit!

My father continued to pour out blue flashes.

It was a sword attack that unfolded like breathing, but the result was by no means light.

Shwaaagh!

A diagonal sword that subtly bends upwards from the bottom.

It was a direction that could maximize the power of the Dancheon Lunar Eclipse, but not many could follow it.

Due to the repulsive force generated within the body, it was because he could not wield the sword to his heart’s content.

Quaching!

I also cast Dancheon Lunar Eclipse to block the sword attack.

“Kuk!”

Jureuk!

However, it resulted in internal injuries.

Because the Dancheon lunar eclipse unfolded at that odd angle was very difficult to defend.

I forced myself to swallow the blood flowing in my mouth and grabbed the handle.

Clap!

‘That’s just an illusion, not my real father. You asshole!’

No being could bring the dead back to life.

I shouted that inwardly, but my will to fight did not soar easily.

Why did Esmaranta’s Tower create such an ordeal?

Clearly, the tower was asking a question to those who wanted to take on the challenge.

Only by finding the answer can you overcome the ordeal.

Damn! Jjoong!

As I endured my father’s attack, I kept repeating the anguish in my mind.

But I couldn’t find the answer by wasting time.

Besides, the question itself didn’t even exist in the first place.

‘Wait a minute. Why did I think the tower was asking questions?’

The question-and-answer questions eventually led to a conclusion.

What Top wanted was simple.

Defeat the opponent in front of you and move on to the next step.

Then the end will come eventually.

In fact, there was no reason to worry at all.

“Let’s keep it simple. He was originally good at such things. The author is not my father.”

I already realized that the other person wasn’t real.

But at some point, it seemed that he was fascinated by the shape.

Seeing him practice swordsmanship the same way he did in his lifetime, he didn’t even know he fell into that trap.

‘Of course. It’s based on my memories.’

Swoop.

I let out a long sigh, took a step back, and Lee Hyeong-eun performed a sleepover.

‘I don’t have the strength to use another secret technique anymore. Now I have to fight the game with the killing method.’

Most of the Aura and Mana were in a state of crawling on the floor because of successive confrontations with superpowers.

Now, even the relatively low consumption of Aura could not be unfolded.

All that was left was the mute-like sword.

After I hid my presence and shape with the Heterogeneous Sleeping Art, I began to approach the target.

The father’s vision stood still, staring serenely into the void.

No matter where the enemy appeared, I felt the spirit of cutting it down at once.

But I showed myself openly to the front.

Swoop. Shih! Fu-wook!

“Keew!”

The father, who had reached the end of the one-star fire sword, stabbed the sword towards the abdomen.

It was because I intentionally only protected my face and neck.

Then I roughly grabbed the wrist of the opponent who was about to pull out the sword.

“aaa!”

Kwajik!

Before I knew it, the black dragon sword was piercing my father’s chest.

As soon as he realized that he couldn’t win with normal methods, he used Yukchamgoldan’s method.

pounding! pounding!

Through the sword blade that penetrated the ribs, he could feel the beating of his heart gradually slowing down.

All of a sudden, my vision was blurry.

It was because the tears I had been holding back burst out uncontrollably and covered my eyes.

That’s why I didn’t even notice that my opponent raised his right hand.

Swoop. Took.

But, isn’t my father gently putting his hand on top of my head instead of attacking?

“…”

Suddenly, when I raised my head, I saw a benevolent face with a faint smile.

The moment I saw that smile, my father’s model began to disintegrate into powder.

Finally, the second ordeal of the Esmaranta Tower was over.

dump.

I fell down gasping for breath and couldn’t move for a while.

Even the nonsense he spat out like a habit now showed no signs of coming to mind.

It was because his father’s warmth approached him intensely.

* * *

“Is it over?”

Quite a bit of time has passed, but nothing has changed in this vast space.

There was no sign that someone was approaching, so perhaps the ordeal ended here.

I got up and started walking along the road in front of me.

There will be a tower reward at the end of this road.

chuck. chuck.

“Ugh…”

As a result of the fierce battle, the body was very heavy.

Cure magic was applied once more to give first aid, but the internal wounds were still deep.

However, I couldn’t stand it because I was curious about the reward of the tower.

Wasn’t it for the sake of growth that I came all the way through that cruel adversity?

‘What can you do to step up? An ancient artifact? A new secret?’

As I walked forward, a staircase with clear traces of the years appeared in front of me.

At the end of the stairs was a small wooden door.

However, the shape of the door seemed familiar.

“What?”

I had my doubts, but I decided to go inside and have a look.

Squeak.

As I carefully pushed the door open, an unbelievable sight filled my eyes.

“Oh! You’re late. Have you been sparring with your father?”

“Hyung, are you here? Come in quickly. hahahaha! It’s been a while since I’ve had a meal with my family.”

There, there was a mother who smiled infinitely benevolently and a younger brother who trained together through the joys and sorrows.

“Keuheum! It’s late. What are you doing after not coming in?”

Besides, my father suddenly appeared from behind and went inside.

I almost walked forward unintentionally.

Because it was a family that I missed so much and was familiar with.

‘Is this the reward of the tower? Show me what I want most?’

But the moment I was about to step out, a scene penetrated my head.

It was the image of his mother and younger brother being brutally killed in battle.

‘My family is all dead. Besides, I was born as Ray Landswalger.’

When I suddenly came to my senses, the place for a harmonious dinner changed in an instant.

The scene full of family love is nowhere to be found, and the tip of a tall tower appears.

Surprisingly, I was about to go into space.

Wheein!

I quickly pulled my foot back, and soon a gust of wind blew.

“Wow! Mr., you almost ran into it, didn’t you? It’s very vicious. This.”

Suddenly, I looked down and saw a pile of human bone fragments.

The back of the tower, which I hadn’t seen since entering, looked like this.

Those who were relieved that the ordeal was over would have fallen there and lost their lives.

The moment I realized that fact, I sat down on the floor with a confused mind.

* * *

how much time has passed

After a long time, I got up from my seat after constantly using the ryun technique and the Conantreger technique.

‘Something… … . changed.’

Ryoon Yeongongbeop was a secret technique with high tolerance to the extent that only the merits of the technique could be picked up.

However, after using it with Conantreger, it showed signs of becoming more and more harmonious.

‘Is it because I’m not in the upper hand?’

When attempting to fuse other secret techniques, in most cases, the ryun practice method was far superior.

However, Conantregor is one of the secret skills that the Landswalger family has developed over hundreds of years.

It was an excellent technique that was comparable to that of Riverrun, which is said to be the best on the continent.

Since the equal seniority method was used in parallel, the reaction was to combine the two into one.

Of course, there were only a few hints at the moment.

‘I can’t predict the result of fusion. Because there has never been anyone who has mastered both.’

They probably wouldn’t have bonded right away.

This was because he consciously controlled the two practices so that they would not mix.

‘I couldn’t get to Tier 3. Still, I’ve reached the end of Tier 4.’

Due to the enlightenment I gained at the tower, my realm was greatly improved.

Although I couldn’t skip a step, it was a remarkable growth.

All business at Esmaranta’s Tower is over.

Now all that remains is to return.

The shabby door at the end of the tower was firmly closed.

‘Hey, isn’t there any convenience that leads directly to the exit from here?’

However, on the way back, a rather interesting scene caught my eye.

There was obviously nothing there when I came in, but when I looked at it now, all kinds of weapons were stuck on the floor.

The amount was so great that it could be called the Grave of Blades.

Going down the stairs and examining the broken and worn weapons, I saw recent bloodstains.

Judging by the footprints on the floor, it seemed that these bloodstains were mine.

“I guess all of your injuries were caused by this.”

While going through two battles in fantasy, he suffered numerous wounds.

It was astonishing that all of that had been inflicted by this weapon.

Took. Quick!

As I passed by the Grave of Swords, I felt something kicking in my feet.

The sound of breaking was unusual, but when I looked carefully at the floor, I found sand and bone fragments mixed together.

It seems that the owners of those weapons also died and rotted here.

‘If it’s not me… … . If I say that, I’m sure my personality has exploded?’

I shrugged lightly and went straight to Esmaranta’s Tower.

“Well?”

As they were leaving the tower and moving towards the entrance of the Forest of the Dead, a group of people was suddenly detected.

Those who are familiar with something and have a secret energy.

‘Why are you following me? What did you do wrong?’

I just had to question it.

Because they were the blood-sucking squad of the Landsvalger family.
