Jobless Reincarnation: The King with a Mental Problem

The Holy Land of Swords was really nice today...

I was standing on the wall outside the dojo, my green hair was being blown around by the wind like a shampoo bottle.

The children were running in a line in the yard, while Nina rode on her horse, lecturing them with a crooked mouth, waving her pointer back and forth. She truly lived up to her reputation as the ruler of demons.

Um......

The children have noticed me...

"Help! The Ssisssisspairud tribe is eating children!"

Following his finger and voice, I was discovered by more children.

First, a few people stepped back, and then the whole line broke up. The children screamed and ran into the dojo, huddled together, tripped over each other, got up and kept running.

Nina reined in her horse, turned her head to look at me, and this time her mouth was crooked with fright!

Now, let me wreak havoc!

Pressure Massenet!

Wang raised his hand, striking a hunting pose like Yujiro Hanma, and let out a howl!

Her expression froze for about two seconds, then she hurriedly tried to turn her pony around, only to fall off.

But she immediately got up and continued running. In that short distance of a few dozen meters, I watched her slip four or five times, each time managing to avoid falling by using both her hands and feet. Finally, she reached the main training ground, crying and shouting—"The Spelud tribe is here! Daddy, save me!!!"

Hahahaha!!!

This is hilarious!

Like a dog!!!

Who would have thought that Nina also had the talent to cultivate the Northern God Style Four-Legged Stance!

When I first designed the character, I really didn't expect that this appearance would have this kind of use.

The king rejoiced in his foresight and wisdom!

only......

These days, laughing out loud can ruin your image. Do you know how hard it is to force yourself to suppress your laughter?

Old Deng arrived very quickly.

When he strode out of the main gate of the dojo, the children behind him had already hidden inside the house, only daring to peer out from the windowsill.

He glanced at me, his hand resting on the hilt of his sword, but he didn't draw it.

"...You are...Alucard?"

I descended from the wall and walked into the open space in the courtyard, where I respectfully bowed to Old Deng.

"Exactly."

"What... are you doing here?"

Is that the purpose?

The king's gaze passed over his shoulder and landed deep within the temple grounds, where the old water goddess was standing under the eaves...

cut......

"My mission is to destroy the evil god."

"..."

"I've heard there are two powerful individuals here who are called gods. So I wanted to see who these people are."

"..."

"only......"

My murderous aura surged toward the old woman without warning.

The weather in the Holy Land of Swords is already quite cold, but now that I am controlling Alucard's body, a mere rage from me can cause a fierce wind to rise around us, making it even colder...

This feeling is really quite strange...

I spoke to the old water goddess with an almost inhuman calm.

I remember you.

While at the beach...

You have an unpleasant aura about you.

I let you off the hook because I had more important things to do at the time.

I never expected to meet you again. Is this the guidance of fate?

so......

Are you an apostle of an evil god?

The king's killing intent pressed down on the old woman without reservation. Sword God Lao Deng took a few steps back, making room for the old woman.

but......

She did not answer.

No.

She has already answered.

Use a sword!

Her hand rested on the sword hilt, and I sensed the magical energy emanating from her...

This must be what it means to strip the Sword Realm of its power, right?

Let me see it for myself!

The abilities of a divine apostle!

Strip the Sword Realm of its power.

The signature technique of the Water God School revolves around "sensory perception," which allows the user to control all information within the entire domain, predicting all of the opponent's actions before they even make a move, and then killing them the instant they strike, faster than their reaction time.

Very sophisticated technique.

It was so exquisite that if I were still at the seaside, I probably wouldn't have even seen the first strike.

But now, I see it all clearly!

[Reverse Sensation] Activated simultaneously!

The two magical fluctuations collided and their fighting spirits merged.

But it seems that my fighting spirit and magic are much stronger than that of the old woman!

"Oh......"

Looking at the old woman sweating profusely in the cold wind

Wang let out a sneer unintentionally.

Wang maintained his smile, lowered his fighting spirit to a level similar to hers, and then planned to step into her killing range.

I was trying to be fair so that [Type Zero] could better mimic the Water God's next move, but it seems the old woman misunderstood it as a provocation.

Then I'll provoke you even more fiercely!

I closed my eyes, maintained my smile, and approached the old woman.

[Reverse Sensation] projects reality backward into the Reality Marble; [Zero Type] mimics the movements of the Water God within the Reality Marble.

I, the King, reversed the empathy from the Zero Style and analyzed all the secrets of the Great-Grandma's moves!

Now, the trajectory of each strike is clearly visible.

I see everything about her clearly!

Stripping away the sword realm is essentially about using senses to cover the battlefield, and then using wondrous manipulation to attach magic within the senses' range to the blade, thereby extending the attack range. There are also techniques similar to the Sword God's Flowing Light Katana, which unleash invisible slashes.

cut......

That's all...

It's nothing special, just a difference in information and speed...

Use [Sense] to provide information, and combine it with the distance advantage within the range of [Sense] to attack the opponent before they can make a move.

In principle, if you are faster than her or have a stronger defense, you can break through.

You could even directly unleash a large-scale spell that covers its entire area.

Although not many people can do it...

But this kind of petty trick is a far cry from Old Deng's unreasonable and powerful nature!

Wang kept his eyes closed and smiled as he continued walking forward, raising his right hand to catch all of her attacks with just one hand.

He deflected each of her slashes with his fingertips, as if playing with a child.

Although this old woman was indeed about the same size as a child...

I could clearly sense the rhythm of her sword swings, and I could feel her breathing becoming erratic, with panic creeping into her sword.

The rhythm was getting worse and worse, and I could even sense that she wanted to run away.

Then her sword arrived.

This time it wasn't the kind of invisible energy blade that was created by combining technology and battle aura.

It is indeed a metal sword.

"The game is over."

Two fingers pinched the blade of the physical sword she swung. The sword was still trembling, but like a caged bird, it could not escape the king's palm no matter what.

Just like her being choked by me, she was powerless to resist my strength.

I lifted her off the ground.

Her toes left the ground, the color drained from her face, and she even gave up resisting. The sword in her hand loosened and fell to the ground with a crisp sound.

The fingers were slowly tightening.

Her pulse, pounding beneath my palm, grew faster and weaker with each beat.

Her eyes had begun to lose focus.

A few strands of silver hair fell down, intertwining with the broken sword on the ground.

She could have broken her spine with just a little force, but for some reason, I just don't want her to die so easily!

This is not enough!

I want her to suffer for as long as possible!

Why...?

Then......

Old Deng's sword has arrived...

His sword slashed in from the side, aiming for the wrist.

It's not a killing move...

Are you trying to stop it?

After throwing the old woman out, I stood up again and looked at Sword God Lao Deng.

"...Hey! Hey! Hey!"

Can't you guys just talk things out? I thought you were a reasonable person, considering how respectable you looked!

"..."

I did not reply...

Something was definitely wrong just now. I can't even remember all the people I've killed, but...

I rarely feel this way...

This urge to inflict pain through all sorts of cruel methods...

Do I have a grudge against her...?

The water god landed on the ground, clutching his neck and coughing violently.

Old Deng stood between her and me.

After confirming that the king would not suddenly make a move, he turned to look at the water god and began to curse.

"Old woman, say something!"

Evil gods and apostles! Is it true!?

Who are you trying to impress with that sour face?

If you really want to die, then get the hell away from me!

Don't die here!!!

"I've already helped you find your granddaughter, do you expect me to tell her you're dead when I find her?!"

The old woman remained silent for a long time.

She clutched her neck, knelt on the ground, and breathed heavily, like a bellows.

Light streamed through the edge of the eaves behind her, casting a blurry halo around her white hair.

I looked down at her from my high position.

Finally, she spoke, her voice extremely hoarse.

"...Before...in my dream there was a guy who claimed to be a god..."

He told me that if I didn't want war to break out, I should go to the land where the gods descended.

I went.

When we got there, he told me again... to kill that young man named Jacks.

"and then?"

"I didn't have time to make a move..."

He died...

To protect my granddaughter...

After that, the gods and humans never appeared again...

Apostle of God and Man!!!

This impulse could no longer be contained!

Instinctively, he raised his hand and used the Collapse Domain to kill her!

Then......

Old Deng's sword was once again in front of me...

Wang tilted his head...

What does it mean?

"Why are you stopping me?"

"I......

I promised her... I would help her find her granddaughter.

And what Lao Tzu promised, he will definitely do!

If you kill her, I won't be able to stand it when the little girl starts crying in my room.

Because I just don't like seeing little girls cry.

Is it Izaruti?

This king...

I also don't like seeing little girls cry, except for Nina...

"She was just being used! Since that so-called 'God of Men' is no longer contacting her, let's leave it at that..."

I stared at Old Deng for several seconds.

He neither sheathed his sword nor thrust it forward.

It just stood there, blocking the way.

Although the nameless fire in my heart is still burning.

But I did not allow my reason to be suppressed by this unknown rage...

The task now is not to kill a piece that is no longer a threat.

She's nothing but an old dog that I can kick to death at any time.

Let her live a little longer...

The real task is to find out Old Deng's unreasonable power!

"I see..."

Let's have a performance showdown then.

Let me see for myself whether that swordsmanship, hailed as 'divine,' is truly just an empty title."

Wang stepped back a few paces, smiled again, and made room for the competition.

At the same time, he conjured a sword out of mud and pointed it at Old Deng.

Actually, it was a sword pulled out from within a bounded field; what happened earlier was just a special effect...

"If you win, I might spare her life."

Old Deng looked at me and remained silent for a while.

Then his lips twitched, revealing a confident smile.

Be happy to take on the challenge!

The wind blew in through the gap in the temple grounds, stirring up the fallen leaves on the ground, swirling them into the air, and then slowly falling back down.

Next episode!

The strongest human VS the strongest god!!!
