Academy Silver Gatekeeper - Chapter 131
131 – Give, Receive – 2
Fuck, it really hurts so bad. It looks like the entire leg was cut off.
As a bonus, I feel like the blood is draining from my whole body little by little.
Shoulders and legs. Just looking at them all, they are terrible slander.
No matter how strong my body is, it can never overcome excessive bleeding.
Taking time is at a disadvantage. You have to win at all costs.
“Whoa.”
If there’s anything fortunate, it’s this in my hand.
It was a terrible thing that was stuck on my leg a little while ago.
Now, on the contrary, another limb that will faithfully carry out my orders.
The big shadow that Hyun Soo-jin cast on my leg.
No matter where I dodged or how I blocked it, a terrible dagger flew at me until the end.
That shadow is now aimed at Hyun Soo-jin.
Although it is only one, it is a very small number compared to Hyun Soo-jin.
This one is enough for me right now. There are too many.
“… Now I finally understand what the crazy yellow bitch said. “You’re crazy, you.”
I wish that crazy person who listens to me doesn’t do that to my face, which is disappointing.
I admit it too. This isn’t normal right now. I understand a hundred times, a thousand times.
It probably has something to do with the experiment and all.
I’d like to find out a little more about what they did to this body.
That’s later. For now, I have to stop the person in front of me right away.
Take your stance again. It brings together the scattered winds.
I draw a broken road and engrave the scattered paths that cannot be put together.
“I would have said it was impossible!”
Sigh!—
Countless and enormous shadows pour forward.
It looks like a wave. No, no. Should we call it a tsunami, not a wave?
The leg with the hole stops responding for a moment.
You can’t block everything just by moving your arm or swinging your sword.
Sometimes you have to take one step back, and sometimes you have to take two steps forward.
In that situation, the current injury could be said to be fatal.
If it weren’t for the shadow that was stolen from Hyun Soo-jin.
‘From now on. Just hit it and leave.’
The space that could not be filled is replaced by a shadow that was shaking from the side.
What happens when shadow collides with shadow? I was worried about him.
But that worry was soon completely and cleanly erased from my mind.
It’s mine now, not Hyun Soo-jin’s, and even though it’s just one, that’s enough.
Kwajik!—Kugung!—
The clash between my shadow and Hyun Soo-jin’s shadow.
The winner there, although one, was the shadow that had assimilated with me.
‘First of all, it seems like the situation is better than expected.’
How do you know? It was only for a moment, but I saw Hyun Soo-jin’s expression distort.
I would have thought it would break in the same way. However, my own shadow was pushed away.
If I can remain calm even after seeing that, I guess I’m not good enough.
‘Back again, keep going back. Back. Back.’
Did you think there was a limit to just rushing in from the front?
A few shadows turn back and fly in from outside the field of vision.
As if that wasn’t enough, attacks were now pouring in from all directions.
Blood is still flowing from the wound.
It would be better if the bleeding was stopped, but there is no way Hyun Soo-jin could afford that.
You have to keep moving to block attacks and draw a wind path.
There is a high probability that that is what Hyun Soo-jin is aiming for.
If I keep forcing myself to move, I will eventually be the one to collapse from exhaustion.
So, before that, you must completely draw out the path.
Kugung!- Boom!-
The shadow is still holding up well.
Thanks to you, I saved one hand, so I’ll try to speed up a little more.
It removes all of Hyun Soo-jin’s shadows and creates a space for the wind to enter.
One ray of wind with one swing. Block once, hit once.
It blows in once again, places it in place, and then blocks access with a shadow.
Then Hyun Soo-jin’s offensive became more intense.
As if asking you to endure it just once, as if asking how long you can endure with just one shadow.
Countless shadows poured down as if being hit by a rain shower.
“Huh, huh.”
I feel like my heart will explode at any moment. I’m out of breath.
The situation where you have to block all attacks and draw a path for the wind at the same time is very difficult.
I thought I would look for another way instead of Kang Min-seong’s wishes.
But when I thought about it again, there was no other solution other than this.
For now, there is no room to open Kwak Hyeok’s spear, so I’ll pass.
There is no guarantee that the sword that Lee Hyun-woo showed is better than Kang Min-seong’s.
Other than that, all other numbers could not be said to be superior to the wind path.
And now it’s too much to give up.
Damn it!—
It’s a big deal. I felt a crack in the shadow that had held up well until now.
It is a very small but obvious crack. And it will get bigger and bigger.
When I felt that gap, I think I unconsciously became impatient.
A sparkling light burst from Hyun Soo-jin’s eyes.
Perhaps he sensed the urgency on my part.
From now on, it’s a race against time. Will it break through or will it not break through?
Will you succeed in interfering with it, or will you achieve what you want after interfering?
The shadow forms a huge curtain and flies right in front of you.
In order not to be suffocated by that curtain, you have to move.
There must be no rest at all. You have to swing like crazy and get out.

Kwaang!- Boom!-
Before I could even pay attention to the direction, black energy was flying in all directions.
That’s a good thing. Because there seems to be no one around.
If that were the case, someone might have lost their life to these blind energies.
Kwaang!—
“Ugh! “aah!”
… Ah. Wait, wait. Why can I hear people screaming?
Damn it. My mouth was clean. I wasn’t talking about whether there was someone or not.
I took my eyes off the almost completely drawn road for a moment and looked at the source of the sound.
Up ahead, between the collapsed buildings, a man in his 50s caught my eye.
The suit I was wearing was torn and ruined.
He seems to be an ordinary family head who was unable to evacuate during the chaos…
“Irina! Irina!! Where on earth have you gone!!”
This is not it. An ordinary family head would not be able to call Irina like that.
Now that I think about it, Irina definitely said that she was working for me.
In a situation like this, if an S-rank person steps forward and works directly, there is a high probability that it will be a security guard.
Shuak!—
For a moment, I thought I had seen it wrong. Hyun Soo-jin, who was pushing me hard until a little while ago.
As soon as the woman saw the man, she was flying there.
I wondered if they were trying to take me hostage. But soon I thought, ‘Why?’
Currently, the one at a disadvantage is not Hyun Soo-jin, but me. That woman is not the one trying to waste time.
But taking hostages? My conclusion is that there is absolutely no reason for that.
When the conclusion was reached, my head started spinning quickly.
Doing the ‘work’ that Irina mentioned, and Hyun Soo-jin’s reaction.
When my thoughts reached that point, I came to one conclusion.
Shaa—
While Hyun Su-jin was away, the road was finally completed.
A breeze gently touches the passage through which the sword flows.
And along the lines, the gently blowing breeze quickly turns into a storm.
‘The woman who was pushing me to death just a moment ago suddenly acts like that.’
The reason why Hyun Soo-jin betrayed her past her and colleagues and became an Elder.
It’s for revenge. It’s because I’m so desperate for revenge that I give up on myself.
It can be said that all actions are ultimately just a paving stone for revenge.
What if Hyun Soo-jin tries to take care of that man, even turning her back on him in the battle with me?
And what if that man is important enough for Irina to protect him?
‘It is said to be related to the past and revenge.’
There was nothing more to think about. I felt confident. Now is your chance.
This is a woman who puts revenge before her honor, her past her, and even her life her.
If that man is the piece of revenge, he will definitely try to get it.
That also means that you can’t resist my attacks.
Kugugu!—
The wind surges and blows fiercely at the tip of the sword.
I’m trying my best to control it, but it’s too much.
The body, which had been holding up well so far, is overloaded.
This road that Kang Min-seong told us about was very difficult.
It’s just words, it’s easy to say that you’re drawing a road.
In reality, you have to swing that heavy sword without error in the empty air.
I can see why both his students and children had a hard time drawing a path.
Instead, it was just as lethal and sharp.
Just looking at the sword swirling around right now gives me goosebumps.
I understand why Hyun Soo-jin went to great lengths to stop him from drawing the road.
Piing!—
A sword imbued with an intense storm cries out.
It’s no longer a limit. We shout that now is the time to pour out without hesitation.
In response, he gritted his teeth and slowly raised his sword upward.
There is only one place where this wind should go.
Elder leaving the screening room with his back turned.
You can’t do that. Where are you going during the screening?
I gripped the sword handle so tightly that it was crushed.
Neither the slightest wavering nor the slightest hesitation is allowed.
With one wish, I win my wish all at once.
My wish now is ‘the complete defeat of the enemy standing before me.’
Wooooo!—
The wind that accepted that wind roars.
Put it down now. Enough is enough, lead the way to the end of the road.
I no longer resisted and dropped the sword.
Hyun Soo-jin is about to snatch a man. My obvious enemy. An opponent that must be stopped.
I drew a line of her final path to that woman.
*
“Wow! “Wow!”
“Don’t be harsh. “I was the one who got poisoned, so why are you doing this?”
Irina threw Alexei away with a cold smile.
Even though he can no longer use his left arm and has suffered other minor injuries.
She was not defeated by all by the two Elders. She actually had the upper hand.
Perhaps it was natural. Because three Elders had to fight against each other, now there are two.
There is a very big difference between two and three. And that was possible thanks to Baek Seo-jin.
‘I should finish it quickly and go help Seojin oppa. Are you saving a prince in danger? I’m sure I’ll be thankful for Seojin’s personality… Instead of saying thank you, why not say thank you with something else?’
At that moment, Irina was smiling.
Quaang!―
A loud noise is heard from the other side, and a huge shock wave hits everyone.
Not only Kwak Hyuk and Alexei, but even Irina was shaken for a moment.
“… Ha.”
When the huge shaking finally subsided, Irina let out her sigh.
It was not time for her to slack off. If she did something wrong, she would be saved again.
“Let’s finish.” “She dragged on too much.”

Irina’s smile disappears from the corner of her mouth.
Kwagwagwagwa!!―
A huge golden energy emits a tremendous flash of light.
Soon the entire area was buried without a trace in the huge halo of light.
