nched.

The duke rarely asked for his sword except for maintenance.
And that was only when he wore it for official events.
How often would the duke, who was one of the strongest in the continent, need to draw his sword?

A few minutes later.

Eurius, the Duke of Dios, and Beatrix were standing in a large hall in the basement of the duke’s mansion.

“This place is a training ground that only our family’s lords can use.”

The duke winked at Beatrix to make her stay away, then drew his sword.

“You can use your full strength here without any problem.”

“That’s what I hoped for.
Today, I’ll try to give you a proper blow.”

To be honest, Eurius had been sharpening his sword against the duke for nearly two months, even though it was training.
He had been beaten mercilessly without any mercy.

“Hehe, it won’t be easy.”

‘He goes full force from the start.’

He wasn’t an opponent who would fall for a clumsy probing attack.

The duke didn’t let his guard down either.

‘I don’t know what kind of ability he has gained, but I have to be careful.’

At least, judging by the fact that he had dodged all of his attacks so far, it might be a speed or defense type ability.

The duke took a defensive stance first, as if inviting him to come.
But at that moment, the duke felt a cold sensation on his neck.


Kwaaang!

A loud noise erupted as the swords clashed.

The duke hastily defended his neck.
Eurius’s attack had started without any warning.

“!?”

The astonished duke retreated a few steps.
Even though he was one of the best among superhumans, he had been pushed back momentarily even though he had allowed him to attack first.

And it wasn’t just one attack.
Invisible attacks flew at him from all directions, relentlessly targeting him.

Eurius also bit his tongue inwardly.

‘Huh, he blocked it without knowing my ability? He’s really a monster-like old man.’

Eurius’s attack was an invisible slash!

But it wasn’t just invisible.

The condition for him to manifest the breakthrough that broke through the fourth stage wall was as follows:

‘Everyone’s personality is expressed according to their environment, goals, and paths they have lived!’

“Speed that can catch anything.”

Beatrix’s ability in her previous life was a swift attack faster than sound.

“I saw a flood when I was young and the dam in our territory collapsed.
That memory is the most vivid for me.”

Duke Carlos’s case was a sturdy wall that could block anything.

“I had a goal that I wanted to break since I stood on my own two feet! And I was able to turn it into dust!”

Nuada’s case was pure destructive power.

But what about him?

He wasn’t a warrior, but an emperor.
He didn’t have a wall that he wanted to overcome as a warrior.
He just lived a regretful life in his previous life and wanted to reverse it.

So he couldn’t figure out what he wanted.
The path of a warrior was not his goal but a tool!

At first, he thought that the goal he had set while training as a warrior was all there was to the condition.
But after talking with Beatrix, he realized that it wasn’t.

‘Even a childish thought from childhood can have a great influence on one’s values!’

He looked back on his life from his previous life to this one.

“Your Highness Eurius, I trust you.
You must become a great emperor.”

It was Marius’s voice, who always tried to educate him properly.

“Eurius! You are the first prince of the empire.
You must never disgrace yourself!”

It was his father’s voice, who always scolded him harshly.

His father was the Iron-blooded Emperor.

He often scolded him harshly for being immature.

“Your Majesty, you must survive and plan for the future.”

It was Beatrix’s voice, who died protecting him until the end.

Eurius in his previous life always suffered from that pressure.

‘It’s too heavy for me.’

‘I’m not talented enough.’

That’s right! Eurius always wanted to escape from the pressure of being the emperor of the empire.

He wandered when he was young, and when he became the emperor, he came to his senses, but he shivered and agonized every time he lost his loyal subjects who entrusted their lives to him.

What Eirius wanted was freedom from oppression.

The ability he manifested at the fourth stage was the ability to be undetected by anyone!

“Ding!”


[The fourth stage of force control has been opened.]

[The trait force master has evolved into ‘Intangible Sword’.]

[The player’s unique skill has been created.]

[Unique skill ‘Reversal Ghost Blade’ created]

The Duke of Dios was astonished.
It wasn’t just that Urius’s attack was invisible.

‘It’s invisible, silent, and barely detectable by the superhuman’s sixth sense.’

He had devoted his life to the sword, but this was the first time he had faced such a difficult attack to defend.

“Ah!!”

Beatrix, who was watching from afar, also opened her mouth wide.
She had never seen her father, the duke, being pushed back so one-sidedly.

And Eurius’s sword didn’t even show up in his sight, but there was a loud noise in the training ground.

‘Ah! This monster-like old man doesn’t take a single hit!’

But Eurius was pressing the duke with countless invisible slashes, but he couldn’t land a hit.

He was indeed one of the best superhumans in the continent.

He could barely feel it, but the duke defended himself with only his superhuman’s sixth sense.
He was like an iron wall.

He felt that it was time to gamble.

His ability, which had just awakened, didn’t last long.

“……”

At some point, the noise of the swords colliding stopped and Urius’s presence disappeared from the training ground.

“……!?”

The duke also watched carefully where the attack would come from.
After a brief standoff.

The duke smiled triumphantly as he felt a very faint presence behind him.

‘He may have reached the realm, but he still lacks experience.
I can block this perfectly.’

The duke quickly defended his back with his sword and prepared for any possible attacks by surrounding himself with a sturdy force barrier.

Peeoong!

As expected by the duke, Urius suddenly appeared and swung a blow that barely missed his back.

But because of that, he couldn’t detect Eurius again, who hid his presence momentarily.

It was only for a moment, but that was enough.

“……!?”

‘Just one hit, just one hit is enough!’

Eurius dropped his sword and punched the duke’s face as it was.

Puck!

Thud!

He didn’t expect much from his first attack.
What he aimed for was what they called a cross counter!

Eurius’s fist hit the duke’s face precisely and the duke pierced his shoulder with his sword.

The duke’s cheek swelled up and blood flowed from his mouth.

Of course, the duel was Eurius’s defeat, but he was satisfied with just that today.
He had avenged himself a little for two months!

‘How about that? Father-in-law! You took a hit this time, right?’

He looked at the duke and smiled slyly.

As he watched Eurius fall down with no strength left, the duke touched his bleeding mouth and chuckled.

‘What a monster, he’s really a monster.’
