The Failed Swordsman Who Became the Strongest After Spamming the 100 Million Years Button - Chapter 383 - Country of Sakura, Cherin and the Seven Holy Swords [154]

Chapter 383. Country of Sakura, Cherin and the Seven Holy Swords [154]

「Oi, shitty brat. Don’t expect any more support from me. A spirit core – especially I, can hardly interfere with the outside world. Even the piss poor attack just now consumed a considerable amount of my power.」

「I see… That was helpful.」

If Zeon hadn’t interfered, I definitely would have died.

「I wanna take over your body and crush that trash… But annoyingly, the other trash is constantly keeping tabs on me… The moment I come out, he will surely aim for the “initial stiffness”.」

「The other trash?」

As I turned my gaze towards Von, for just a brief moment, our line of sight met.

Even while dealing with a mighty swordsman such as Bacchus Valencia, he was constantly being conscious of me for some reason.

「It’s annoying, but I have to step back temporarily. That poison thrash shouldn’t be able to move for a while. Make a “scaffold of darkness” and quickly cross the sea.」

Zeon urged me to escape with a strong tone.

「I’m sorry, but I can’t do that.」

「…A”a?」

「I can’t leave Ria and the others behind. I will stay here and defeat the enemy.」

「Oi, oi…. You got thrashed around and still don’t understand the difference in ability between you and them?! You’re a greenhorn who can’t even use your soul dress properly and you want to fight two fully matured true soul dress users?!! Even a babe sucking on its mother’s teats will know how bullshit that is!!!」

Zoen’s angry voice echoed from the depths of my chest.

「Even if you stay here, the “outcome” will not change. It will be “total annihilation”!」

「…I know.」

Zeon said nothing wrong.

If we continue like this, we will surely be killed.

「If you understand that, then forsake those burdens behind you and leave this place right away–」

「–But the “possibility” is not zero.」

「…………Ah?」

「I can’t beat Deal with my abilities, but I can do something like “buying time”. Then… maybe someone will come to our rescue? Like Leia-sensei or the other Seven Holy Swords…」

「Were you born an idiot!? Reinforcements wouldn’t come to this isolated island in the sea!」

「…I know.」

I realise how unrealistic I sound..

「But if the possibility isn’t zero… If there is a way for Ria and others to survive, even if it’s only a one percent chance… I will swing my sword to make that future come true.」

This swordsmanship, which I have refined for more than a billion years, is to protect people precious to me.

If I turn tail and run away in this situation, even if I’m able to survive somehow, the “swordsman Allen Rodore” in me will surely die.

「Don’t screw around… how much… time… I and… your… who… that geezer’s, button…」

Zeon’s rage filled voice sounded choppy and disconnected in my head.

「…Sorry, Zeon. But I can’t understand you…」

My consciousness… is growing thin.

My sight began to flicker and I gradually became unable to hear sound.

Is it due to lack of spiritual power, or is it from bleeding too much?

No, I’m sure it’s both.

「YOU, SHITTY BRAT! ―LISTEN! IF PUSH COMES TO SHOVE, DO WHATEVER IT TAKES TO CONNECT THE ”PATH”! TAP INTO YOUR OWN “ROOT”–」

Zeon’s tremendous yelling was cut off mid-sentence.
