But they were increasing

He was sure the s only had one beak, but they were increasing until they became two, three, four…

‘I-is the technique supposed to be like this?’

Ten his sword in a panic His blade shone as red as the sun as it cut each sn

But even as he did, the one who grew impatient was him

‘What is this? What in the world is this?’

The sun was the greatest source of light in the sky By nature, if a s too close to the sun, biologically, it would inevitably melt

However, the s seemed like it was about to consurily and concentrated an enory into his body

“H-holy shi+t”

“I knew the Sun Sould win!”

The sun split the crowd of ss He was called the Sun Sword because every time his blade flashed, an opponent would die

‘Do you really think that you can beat !

Tenh each s

‘I won This is ain, he felt assured of his victory, and his lips curled up once ra like an acrobat The S’s stance was difficult to le flaw

“!”

And then, Tenht directions[2]

“Ugh!”

He swung his scarlet sword ain

Rriiip!

However, Mio had already cut a long line through his upper garment

“”

“”

Everyone in the schoolyard was still The audience couldn’t tell if the

“He’s… not bleeding”

“She went easy on hi his skin”

“What happens in situations like this?”

“I don’t know If he doesn’t acknowledge his loss… they’ll probably keep going, right?”

While the others chattered, Tenmei Ryo was frozen with confusion

‘She cut me? Me?’

No… No, that couldn’t be it That was i every single technique of the Blue Moon Style I was breaking through each one’

He acknowledged her skills He had never seen someone who could use the Sword of the S in such a masterful way

But still, he had lost And there was only one reason for his defeat

‘My skills still aren’t—’

He held hi himself to finish the sentence to hied that, his whole world would co down

“”

He suddenly looked down at his hand holding the sword After decades of being covered with callouses, they had taken over his whole paler—when he first lost to his younger sister

‘Even though so much time has passed, I still cannot reach her’

Tenht, and his body becanashed his teeth amidst the misery, but he are of the eyes around him, so he forced himself to smile

“Sister, that was a fine coive h I lost by a ive me full authority over the Sky Soul Guild”

“It was the finest one I have had in recent ive me full authority over the Sky Soul Guild”

“”

Geez, he was still talking…

Tenmei Ryo pushed down the heavy sense of self-doubt and nodded

“Alright Do as you wish”

With so o back on his word like a coward He shortly handed over the reins to the Vice Captain of his team and ran back to Earth with a face riddled with exhaustion

As soon as it was over, Mio ran over to Seo Jun-Ho and said, “Didn’t I tell you? You did not need to worry, Jun-Ho They will no longer be a probleave her a slow clap “Wow, our maknae sure is the best”

“The best…?” she htest smile Seo Jun-Ho had ever seen from her since she broke out of the ice

“The preparations are complete…”

Seo Jun-Ho completed the preparations for the battle earlier than expected, and he headed over to the city wall

‘We stopped Sky Soul’s retreat, and they hy Players started to leave’

On top of that, they had finished spreading the news thanks to Gilberto

There wasn’t ht attack tonight, so people should steel the, but they have a secret weapon, so people shouldn’t worry tooout the cockroaches and the special entities The rumors were basically like that

‘And I asked the Sword Saint to help us take out Black and White’

This way, Seo Jun-Ho could focus solely on Erebo

“Contractor Allow me to make but one request,” The Frost Queen suddenly said with her arms crossed

“If it’s about cake, then no”

“Oh, please! Do you truly believe I would ask for cake in a situation like this?”

‘…Yeah’

Seo Jun-Ho was silent for a , “Then, what is it?”

The Frost Queen looked straight at him with a serious face “No e This is an order I… I a”

“Why are you worried about that?” Seo Jun-Ho snorted Truthfully, there had been a ti over and over again

‘But I won’t run away anyive up on those ere precious to him, and he wouldn’t lose hier and bigger on the horizon

“I’ht now”

“What nonsense is that? Are you saying that there is another Seo Jun-Ho somewhere?”

“No, come on It’s just a metaphor”

The current Seo Jun-Ho was the Seo Jun-Ho who had gone through every suffering and eed triumphant He was the only Seo Jun-Ho here

‘There’s just oneleft to do’

If he looked back, he could see all his former selves, collapsed with countless injuries for the sake of bringing his, see their memories, and feel their pain

And he was the ‘final’ Seo Jun-Ho as carrying everything

He stood before Erebo

- How happy I am to see one, however naive you are So it is a human

“Yeah, yeah Good to see you, Erebo”

With Midnight Sun covering his body, Jun-Ho gripped the so-called Cold Spear in his hands

“Hey, Cold Spear After we get back to Earth, I’ll take you to a fortune teller and give you a really cool naiving off seeer
