A Reincarnated Person With a Sub-Dimension - Chapter 47



Episode 47

Immediately after swinging the True Silver Sword.

I ran at full speed without looking back.

It is still difficult to determine the success or failure of the surprise attack.

If it failed, the only thing left was to run.

All senses were heightened to the extreme.

A squirrel in front saw me running and jumped in surprise.

The dry leaves that had been hit by the squirrel’s foot broke and flew slowly into the air.

From far away, the sound of birds flapping their wings and the wind rustling through the leaves.

Everything in the world felt slow and clear.

Various sounds and complex smells stimulate the senses.

But my nerves were focused exclusively on Jerome.

Did you run 20 meters?

Jerome did not feel any particular movement.

I stretched my right foot forward and hit the ground hard.

My body slipped due to the tremendous speed.

As soon as he hit the thick tree in front of him with his feet, he quickly rotated his body.

At that moment, Jerome’s right hand, which had been severed by the true silver sword, fell to the floor.

‘Is it a success?’

The thing I was most worried about prior to the surprise attack was that Jerome was expressing outside energy.

The only thing that can penetrate the outside air is the outside air.

Fortunately, as it was a skill that consumed a huge amount of mana, it was impossible to use it instantaneously, so the surprise attack was successful.

The true silver sword started at Jerome’s right waist and cut through his left shoulder.

A red line spread under the cut coat.

Jerome’s upper body, which should have been connected smoothly, was slightly misaligned around the red line.

Soon after, Jerome’s upper body, which was split in two, could not overcome the force of gravity and fell forward.

The shape of the soul and body is the same.

To put the relationship between the two in a simple analogy, the soul is water and the body is a sponge.

Currently, Jerome’s upper body is amputated above the sea.

In other words, Jerome’s upper body, which had lost the mana channel, was no different from an ordinary person.

There was no way for Jerome to survive unless he was immediately treated by a high priest.

From noble mtl dot com

Preparing for the emergency, I approached Jerome.

He took out his mace and turned Jerome, who was looking at the floor, to the other side.

Jerome rolled his half-open eyes and tried to look at me.

It was as if he had something to say as he continued to open his mouth.

“That’s what I said to have a conversation.”

The opponent is the enemy who is aiming for my life.

There was no mercy to be shown to the enemy.

But I wasn’t a pervert who enjoyed the pain of others, and I didn’t want to inflict pain on people who were already dying.

He raised his right foot and hit Jerome’s head hard.

Enemy.

Jerome’s head was smashed like a watermelon bursting.

Due to the outbreak of monsters, monster species appear even near the border.

It won’t take long for the body to disappear.

A lonely forest with no one around.

For the death of a master warrior, it was absurd.

Looking at the dead Jerome, he made a firm resolution.

‘Let’s never be vigilant.’

Uncle Herbert says everything depends on the situation.

He said that there is no absolute power in the world.

Then what is strength?

Power to overwhelm opponents?

Or wisdom to control and regulate the situation?

I thought the latter was the true strength.

Carelessness is like poison that brings death.

Anyone can lose their life in an instant if they overconfident in their skills.

Simon, Manfred and Jerome.

They all died because they looked down on me.

‘Actually, since Yongcheonsoo is so fraudulent, even I wouldn’t have expected it.’

Anyway, if they did their best to deal with me, they wouldn’t have faced such a pointless death.

I rummaged through Jerome’s waist and grabbed a leather pouch.

There was nothing more to take.

Now that you’ve got your loot, it’s time to leave.

I walked to the tree where I stopped earlier, erasing the remaining footprints.

After clearing up to the last footprint, I climbed the tree.

Using the thick branches as a stepping stone, he stomped his feet vigorously.

The tree stumbled and the heavy body flew through the air.

***

After receiving the member’s report, Eva ran out without hesitation.

Taking Luna, who was in the middle of training, out of the north gate without even having time to explain the situation.

‘Ian. Where did you go?’

Eva ran as fast as she could in the direction indicated by the member.

After a while, Luna, who followed silently, asked Eva.

“Eva, what’s up?”

“I got a call from Verda, but I think Jerome is targeting Ian.”

“If it’s Ian, then that kid? How long has it been?”

“It hasn’t been long since I left the castle. If I hurry, nothing will happen.”

Eva tried to suppress her anxiety and comforted herself.

“Are you so worried about a boy named Ian?”

“Yes, sister. I’m begging you. Find Ian.”

“Okay. Don’t worry too much, my sister will definitely find it.”

Luna increased her mana and moved quickly.

and after some time

While exploring the surroundings, Luna found a trace.

‘footprint.’

Looking at the trampled and broken tree branches and leaves, it hadn’t been long since people had passed by.

After looking around, I was able to find another set of footprints about 20 meters away.

‘It’s Jerome.’

Unless you are a master, it was close to impossible to jump over 20 meters in one step.

Luna followed the remaining traces and moved without delay.

About 30 minutes after starting the search.

A body cut in half appeared in front of Luna.

Worried that it might be the child Eva was looking for, she quickly approached the corpse.

“Nonsense…”

Luna was speechless at the incredible sight.

Due to the dismembered head of the corpse, it was difficult to determine the exact identity.

However, the red hair, the familiar body shape, and the unusual outfit.

I intuitively recognized that the corpse in front of me was Jerome.

Nevertheless, it was difficult for Luna to accept the reality.

‘Did you die in vain like this? Who the hell?’

over the past 10 years.

I spent a time close to penance, thinking only of revenge.

However, when I saw the target of revenge die miserably, I felt both joy and despair at the same time.

The time when Luna was staring blankly at Jerome’s corpse.

Following the trail she left behind, Eva arrived.

“Sister! No way.”

Upon discovering the body, Eva hurriedly came running.

After a while, Eva also spoke to Luna with disbelief eyes.

“Sister. What is this?”

“done.”

Luna choked on the complex emotions rising from the depths of her heart.

She looked at Eva and said in a calm tone.

“You must find it.”

With Jerome’s death, Luna’s revenge ended in vain.

Instead, she has a new goal.

Luna vowed to find out who killed Jerome.

And he thought that expressing gratitude to him was the last ritual to break the bad relationship between her and Jerome.

***

Childhood.

I heard about how wide this world is from the mercenaries and merchants passing through the village.

At the time, it was thought that rumors were distorted due to incorrect information because civilization was not developed.

‘Isn’t it rather reduced?’

But the more I got to know the world, the more I realized that it wasn’t just bullsh*t.

Our kingdom alone stretched over thousands of kilometers from north to south.

This was a conclusion drawn from comparing the distance between her hometown and Erita to a rough map of the kingdom.

Adjacent kingdoms there.

Even the deepest places in the North and South, which refuse human footsteps.

It was difficult to even imagine how vast this world was.

It’s been several hours since I killed Jerome.

At first, I ran through the trees and erased the tracks.

When I crossed a mountain, I came down to the ground and ran at full speed.

After that, I crossed mountains and rivers several times to leave no trace.

I thought it would be hundreds of kilometers if I calculated the distance traveled.

Now, you won’t be able to find any clues linking Jerome’s death to me.

‘This should be enough.’

In front of them, they saw a shallow cave that could be used as a shelter.

Except for small animals, there was no special presence felt in the surroundings.

‘I wonder what’s in it.’

Jerome’s leather pouch didn’t show anything special except for its luxurious appearance.

However, since it was the only thing Jerome, who hadn’t even brought a weapon, was carrying, I was excited to see what it would contain.

I pulled the string that was holding the leather pouch.

When the entrance was widened as much as possible, a circle the size of three spans was created.

Even though the pouch was not very large, the inside looked black as if it contained the night sky.

“yes!”

The moment I confirmed that it was a subspace pocket, admiration came out through fostering.

With a throbbing heart, he put his arms in his pockets.

I took out the contents and put them on the floor one by one.

The capacity of the subspace needs to be confirmed, but there weren’t many items inside.

‘Can I do this?’

I saw a few trifles.

But every single one of the rest was worthwhile.

I picked up the white jewel first.

Inside the jewel, dark green smoke was gently floating.

When mana was blown into it, the jewel vibrated small and gave off a white glow.

It was a senior talisman.

‘What is this for?’

In the case of the intermediate talisman, it was clear that it was designed for attack at a glance.

However, it was difficult to guess the purpose of the smoke-filled talisman.

When I go back to Erita, I’ll look into it with Intermediate Talisman.

I looked at the other items one by one.

There were two high-grade magic stones and various potions.

No gold coins were visible.

I thought maybe there was no need to carry money around because I wouldn’t have to pay for myself.

All the small things have been confirmed.

Now it was time to take a closer look at the treasures.

I looked at the full body armor that gave off a subtle silvery glow.

Judging from the light-reflecting luster, it was 100% pure silver armor.

Starting with the helmet, I took a closer look at the armor.

The average thickness is about 1 millimeter.

Instead, the main parts, the helmet and breastplate, were about twice as thick.

The weight of the whole armor was about 2.5 kg, so it was ridiculously light for its size.

True silver is a mysterious metal that has superior strength and ductility to steel, but weighs only one-tenth the weight.

There was a reason Jin’s armor was expensive.

‘thanks. Jerome.’

More than six thousand gold coins, if not the expected value of the armor.

At some point, Jin was preparing armor, but a pumpkin came rolling in through the vine.

Taking off the plate armor he was wearing, Jin put on the armor.

‘This fits just fine.’

Jerome, like me, has a slim body with small muscles.

Thanks to the cloth armor he wore inside, it didn’t seem necessary to remodel it.

The only thing left is now.

I picked up the sword on the floor.

When he pulled out the sword, Jin’s unique subtle glow shone.

The scabbard was painted with blood-red dye.

It was a color that showed off Jerome’s taste.

The light scabbard seemed to be made of true silver.

I put down the scabbard and examined the sword.

The length of the blade was 60 cm, and the hilt was about 20 cm.

The blade was flat and the tip was long, making it more efficient for stabbing than cutting.

As expected, leather dyed with red dye wrapped around the hilt.

As I gripped the hilt, I felt a firm yet soft texture.

Judging by the texture, it was assumed to be ogre leather.

A high-grade magic stone was embedded between the blade and the hilt.

‘This is the magic sword.’

magic sword.

A symbol of absolute attack power and the pinnacle of magical weapons.

As it used the power of a high-level magic stone, it was a weapon that could only be handled by at least reaching the master level.

I drew up mana and blew it into the sword.
