Overgeared

‘I will kill you because you are stronger than me.’

Asmophel’s serious declaration contained a misuse of words. It was the right of the strong to kill or spare someone. If the weak talked about life and death, then it was likely that anger would rise beyond the absurdity.

‘Daring to deny the providence of power—this is a blasphemy against the war god!’

It happened from the time he experienced the miracle of the war god. No, Kyle had already become a fanatic the moment he peeked at the ultimate technique presented by the war god. Dignity and rule of law were all created by strength. He was fully educated in this type of belief and only revered strength.

'I will teach you providence. You will learn with your death.’

Kyle gritted his teeth. He was certain there were no variables to worry about as he knew the meaning of Asmophel’s ‘Fire Sword’ title and his Flower technique.

‘I just need to watch carefully.’

Most people didn’t know it, but Asmophel’s swordsmanship didn’t only exert power when it blossomed. It also exerted power when it gave out a sparky glow. Kyle needed to be careful, but if he paid attention, there was nothing Asmophel could do to make up for their difference in skill.

After being hit by the sheath, Kyle’s eyes started to recover quickly. The electric current became his blood, his flesh, and then his bone. It was the result of using the best regeneration technique, just like when he restored the arm that he had lost a long time ago. This was a power he had learned because of the war god. It was literally a miracle.

‘The method consumes so much stamina that it is hidden in a number of secret techniques.’

There was no chance. Nothing would work against him...

“Free Farming.”

“...?” Kyle, who was wary of Asmophel, doubted his ears as he checked his recovered vision. Supreme Swordsmanship, the swordsmanship that was passed through Piaro’s family for generations—it was the power that symbolized Piaro. Kyle never dreamed that Asmophel would use Supreme Swordsmanship.

‘...No, did I hear it wrong?’

He was so perplexed that he was mistaken for a moment. It seemed to have been a different name from Supreme Swordsmanship. (TL: Supreme Swordsmanship and Free Farming are only different in one character, so they sound similar)

Still, it was only for a moment. Kyle’s thoughts were complicated.

“Altered Style.” Asmophel succeeded in reproducing the power of the number of Piaro.

“W-What is this?”

Kyle’s currents, which had been spread out like a spider web in all directions in preparation for Mercedes’ intervention, started to vibrate simultaneously. It was a warning of danger.
