Chapter 28
[The power of the being dwelling in the player can be displayed temporarily.]
Uuuuuuu.
Unprecedented power that boils inside the body when the Spirituality skill is activated. Jaeyoung quickly checked the skills he possessed and said.
“5 minutes.”
“Let’s finish it in 5 minutes, because it runs fast.”
Chaeeng.
[Quick steps are activated.]
[The will to battle is activated.]
[The wind sword is activated.]
[The wind shield protects you.]
The clash of the swords resonates lightly. In the blink of an eye, Jaeyoung\'s sword moved twice and three times, aiming for Count Boroken\'s vitals.
“Keuuugh!”
Earl Boroken quickly flirts with his body and falls back. His face was full of bewilderment.
“You... you weren\'t an ordinary adventurer.”
“Now do you understand?”
great speed. His sword, which flew in an instant and precisely aimed at vital points, was clean without any superfluities. As a Master, if he was barely aware of it and was able to avoid it, he probably wouldn\'t even think of avoiding it at the level of a normal knight or swordsman.
“You know that saying that you will assassinate yourself is not a lie.”
“is it so? Well then, Dalian is about this...”
Jaeyoung was delighted at the implausible sound every second, but Count Boroken said seriously as he straightened his sword again.
“Then I\'ll try to do it properly from now on.”
Whoops.
An aura blade, an intangible blade that swayed and formed from his sword. Jaeyoung let out a sigh as the secret energy that symbolized the master came out.
“Oh really... do I really have to do that?”
“Where to take this attack!”
Count Boroken strikes Jaeyoung with a sword full of aura blades. However, he couldn\'t help but be astonished at Jaeyoung\'s response to the attack.
Ji-ing -
Earl Boroken was pushed back by the counter-resilience that was raised with a strange sound of blow. He stuttered as he looked at the intangible white blade on Jaeyoung\'s sword.
“What is it? Were you also a sword master?”
Sword Master. The one who realized the extreme meaning of the sword. The application and affinity of Aura reached the limit, and even the intangible blade could be realized. However, that swordsman-only skill was activated from Jaeyoung\'s sword.
“Ha really... Hey! L! Skip the probability in moderation!”
Suddenly, Jae-young looks at Count Boroken with an annoyed expression while talking to himself incomprehensible. There were many things he wanted to ask, but Count Boroken couldn\'t open his mouth.
Zi Ying-
“Now let’s finish it really quickly.”
Jaeyoung looks impatient. His sword started dancing again. Even with the pure white Aura Blade attached.

[Skill skill ended.]
[Accounting for the duration and player\'s actions begins.]
[Probability 2812 consumed.]
[Overwhelmed those who reached the stage of phenomenal achievement master!]
[Title Miracle You have acquired the duelist.]
[Strength increases by 10.]
“Hey! What is the probability!”
2352. The duration of the spirit skill is about 10 minutes. It was the same time as the previous fight against the Orcs, but the consumption was on a different level. Even though I deliberately chose the one with the least consumption of probability.
“It’s because I barely used my power last time. Don\'t you have anything to say honestly this time?”
“.....”
Jaeyoung was silent at the words L said with a bright smile. Honestly, it was because it was a victory obtained by using all of the skills without skills while facing Count Boroken and using 100% of the power granted to him.
“But... it’s pretty amazing. Even if you usually draw the power of the heavens, it\'s not common to use that power so perfectly... Have you ever trained a sword before?”
Michael looked at Jaeyoung with interest and asked. Until now, Heaven had lent its power to many humans, but she had never seen her use that power so freely and perfectly. Jaeyoung\'s battle just now perfectly reproduced the ‘power of the wind\' to the extent that it is safe to say that the wandering knight, Yaso, has returned.
“Ah-oh! Damn probability!”
Jae-young screams in an annoyed voice, checking something in the air as if he doesn\'t care about her question. And in front of him was Count Boroken, who was sitting down with a shocked face.
‘I can\'t believe it.....\'
A young man who looks very normal on the outside. Other than the fact that he was an adventurer, there seemed to be nothing special about him, but through sparring with him, Count Boroken was able to realize.
‘The reclusive absolute strong.\'
In the eyes of Count Boroken, Jaeyoung was not just a sword master. An existence that has reached the advanced level of a sword master who can put attributes into auras and realize that power. I don\'t know why he was interested in the royal family of the Maroon Kingdom, but I could fully understand why Baron Mikhail sent interest to him.
“Hey... What is your sword pursuing?”
Count Boroken asks Jae-young more seriously and politely than ever before. Seeing his attitude as if he was seeking a great teaching, Jaeyoung looked at him with strange eyes and said.
“Maybe it’s the wind?”
Since all of his skill names were covered with wind, he roughly said it was wind, but Count Boroken stayed still for a long time as if in deep anguish at his words and muttered.
“Wind... wind... the power of the wind, which is faster, freer, and sharper than anyone else\'s...”
As if having gained a great realization, Count Boroken stood still and started swinging his sword alone, as if Tan felt pitiful. muttered.
“Why is the owner doing gymnastics on a moonlit night by himself?”
“...that’s what I want to say.”
Earl Boroken fell into a trance all alone. Jaejoong had no choice but to leave him alone and watch him.
* * *
“Sorry for this. I came to a great realization and sorted out my thoughts without even realizing it...”
Earl Boroken started dancing the sword dance alone for more than 2 hours. Returning to the parlor, I was having a deep discussion with El about how much the spirit skill extorts probability, but Count Boroken entered with an embarrassed expression and said,
“No, well... it can be.”
He bowed down to say he was sorry and came in, but there would be nothing good if he had to come out crookedly, so Jaeyoung nodded as if he understood everything. Then Count Boroken looked at Jaeyoung with a different attitude than before and asked.
“Then, to reiterate the issue we were discussing earlier... Do you really intend to assassinate the Duke of Bergen?”
“Isn’t that the simplest way to solve this problem?”
The Duke of Bergen, the head of the aristocratic faction. If he didn\'t play a decisive role in preparing for war anyway, the other nobles would naturally fall apart, so naturally, his assassination angle was seen.
“Even so, if the Duke of Bergen dies, there will be chaos within the royal family...” ”
Count, do you know that it\'s a Gordian knot?”
“The Gordian Knot...? What is it?”
“A sophisticated and complex knot that will never be untied. What is a simple way to solve this?”
“...?”
Count Boroken, who has no idea at all about Jaeyoung\'s riddle thrown out of nowhere. To him, Jaeyoung touched the knife and said.
“I just cut the knot. No matter how hard I struggle and sweat, I try to solve it somehow, but it won\'t work. It’s easier to just cut them off.”
The truth of life derived from past sages through their experiences. The hawk is medicine, the fist is better than the law, and the sword is stronger than the pen. These words did not come out for nothing. Sometimes complicated problems can be solved quickly by overturning the table first.
“.....”
“I’m going to scream and see. What will happen after that... won’t it work out somehow?”
The irresponsible thought of committing something but not taking care of it. However, Count Boroken couldn\'t bear to reject his whispered proposal with a strangely evil smile on his face. It was because it seemed that if I refused for some reason, more painful things would happen.

[Mission has been updated.]
[Sub-purpose has been added.]
Newly updated mission after the conversation with Count Boroken. Looking at the contents of the mission, Jaeyoung smiled with satisfaction.
[Mission. 2]
The Maroon Kingdom is full of countries like Iljin. The winds of change are blowing in the kingdom that has survived in the midst of these powerful nations. If you just pass by this period of change, you can\'t say it\'s a wandering song in a turbulent world, right? Hurry up and become the protagonist of this wind of change.
- Contributing to the Maroon Kingdom and the royal family.
< The contents of the mission may change depending on the player\'s actions. >
[Sub-purpose]
- Assassination of the Duke of Bergen
-?????
“As expected... it\'s a fun game.”
A game as free as it is abstract. Seeing that the purpose of the mission was newly added, Jaeyoung nodded as expected.
“Quack. So, are you going to kill that duke?”
“no way. You really don\'t think so, do you?”
Tan\'s eyes sparkle as if he\'s having fun. And L frowned as if he didn\'t like it. Jaeyoung asked at the reaction of the two, which was literally opposite.
“why? To say that murder is a bad thing...”
“A mean assassination. That\'s what ugly people who don\'t know honor do. We must challenge him to a duel and judge him squarely!”
“.....”
Murder is not the problem, but assassination is the problem, and the image of an angel in Jae-young’s head literally went into the shredder and turned into terrifying powder when she ardently told him to kill him fairly.
“So... it doesn’t matter if I kill you, but just inform me and then kill me?”
“Yes! At least 3 days before the duel, at least send out a notification that you will be assassinated, so the opponent has time to prepare for death! That\'s right.”
“.....”
Really, Jaeyoung couldn’t understand the angel’s moral concept at all. And that seemed to agree with the trajectory, looking at L with a pitiful look at her ardor and replacing what Jaeyoung wanted to say.
“I knew from the beginning, but you\'re such a crazy bitch.”
“I don’t want to hear the words of an ugly devil.”
“It\'s ugly, what\'s ugly!”
When the two started to tap again, Jaeyoung stopped them.
“I have no intention of killing him right now.”
“what?”
“I beg your pardon?”
At Jaeyoung\'s words, Tan and L turn around and ask back at the same time.
“Originally, when there is a conflict, you can’t just listen to one person. You have to listen to both sides and make your decision. The Duke of Bergen dares to start a war? It\'s not just that, there must be a reason for everything.”
Whatever it is, Jaeyoung is a thorough third party. He wasn\'t born in the Maroon Kingdom, so it didn\'t matter whether a war broke out for Jaeyoung, who was just an adventurer anyway. The most important thing is.....
“I\'m going to listen to what they want and raise the hand of the person who will benefit me the most.”
Wouldn\'t it be to scrape together the probability as much as possible?
“Wow... you are...”
“Such insincere behavior! Very wrong!”
perfect selfishness. Hearing Jaeyoung\'s determination that he could throw away a promise at any time for the greater good, Tan gave a thumbs up, saying he was also the owner, and L shouted as if scolding him with a shocked, stern expression.
“Promises are precious! We must go and kill the Duke of Bergen right now!”
L makes the remark that we must run right away and take the head of the Duke of Bergen. Seeing her like that, Jaeyoung let out a deep sigh as he felt the image of an angel in his head shatter again.
“Is that what an angel would say...”
Sometimes, it was him who gave off a strong feeling that the angel and the devil had switched.
