As long as his sword could accurately strike the old man in front of him, then victory was not impossible.

The Sword King smiled casually.

As for things like the possibility of dying...

Sorry, but during a battle, it's best not to let such trivial matters occupy space in his rough brain...

His brain capacity is not that extravagant.

The Sword King, laughing merrily, casually tore off his already tattered clothes and shredded them into strips.

Then, he used the strip of cloth to wrap his steel sword.

He seems slow to react to many things, but he is exceptionally sharp when it comes to combat.

Therefore, he was able to conclude that the old man opposite him, whose age and power were terrifying, no longer had any intention of continuing to fight him.

Of course, even if it really comes down to a fight, he won't be afraid.

However, it's a bit of a shame.

Because if this continues, it might be my last battle, and I won't be able to continue wielding a sword and engaging in exhilarating combat anymore.

Of course, the thought of such a thing, such a fierce battle where death was a real possibility... stirred within him an inexplicable restlessness and longing.

Anyone who knew the Sword King's inner turmoil at this moment would probably consider him a madman and keep their distance.

Salvatore Tony, a man whose talent lies solely in combat, was not mistaken in his assessment of the situation.

At this point, Marquis Voban was no longer paying attention to this newly emerged god-slayer who had inexplicably wandered onto his territory.

With his piercing green eyes, he stared intently at the Unruly Steel he had summoned—no, the Unruly Steel and the Dragon Slayer were its previous forms; now it was nothing more than an evil dragon spewing black flames.

The Valkyrie-like girl, possessed by the power of victory, had fallen to the ground, exhausted.

The evil dragon was also defeated.

However, the steel of this world is a dualistic, disobedient god.

Whether it's a hero or an evil dragon, they are both parallel aspects of the same thing.

Even after the evil dragon was defeated, the hero who beheaded the dragon-serpent retained his power.

Seeing this, the Sword King Salvatore Tony's face lit up with a delighted expression, and he gripped his longsword even tighter.

In his eyes, there is no such concept as taking advantage of someone's misfortune or picking up a bargain.

As long as there are enemies there, he will swing his sword and cut them down—that is his principle.

However, the moment the thought crossed his mind, the old demon king's sharp gaze fell upon him.

Seeing this, the Sword King had no choice but to reluctantly suppress his urge to attack.

Because he knew that as soon as he raised his sword, that grumpy old man was about to use his magic eye, which could turn people into pillars of salt, on him.

That's not the worst of it. The real problem is that I'll probably have to face the lightning that roars down from the sky, the endless pack of wolves, and the flames of judgment.

He possesses only the silver arm and no other powers to protect himself.

Tony, who was in a bad mood, didn't want to face this grumpy old man anymore.

So he could only watch quietly...

"Wow, that's amazing!"

The Sword King, who had finally calmed down, spoke in a tone filled with emotion.

"I always had a feeling that this guy was different from us..."

Salvatore Tony, his blue eyes fixed intently on the scene before him—

The rebellious god, who had been transformed back into a steel hero, had not yet had a chance to unleash his bravery and divine power once more...

He suddenly froze.

Then, his body shattered like glass after being struck by a heavy blow...

It shattered with a crash.

There is no resistance.

The broken limbs fluttered about, then transformed into divine power and gradually dissipated, reminiscent of swirling snowflakes.

Such scenes are both chilling and captivatingly beautiful.

"No, if I let my fighting spirit rise unchecked, the consequences will be dire." (Zhao sighed)

Tony gripped the sword tightly and then loosened his grip, then loosened his grip again, and so on.

His arms trembled uncontrollably with excitement.

Without needing to say a word, he already realized that the enemy before him was a force to be reckoned with, unlike any other in the world.

If I could fight him to my heart's content, even if I died, it would not be a regret.

but......

"To die in a battle where there is no hope is an unimaginable disgrace."

As the swordsman spoke, he glanced at his right hand, which was gripping the sword tightly and out of control.

Then, use your left hand to pry open each finger of your right hand.

"It's decided, the next goal..."

"When I stand before him again, whether it's one in a thousand or one in ten thousand..."

"At the very least, I need to be able to feel that I have a chance of winning."

"Only in this way can... Wow."

"I have no regrets even if I die!"

After speaking, Salvatore Tony turned and left without hesitation.

If his words were heard by the magicians who feared the power of the Godslayer, it would likely cause a tremendous uproar.

Even when they were human, they were able to draw their swords and challenge the gods without fear.

This guy, considered a mentally unstable idiot, now possesses the power of a god-slayer, yet here he has lost the courage to raise his sword against his opponent—

No, that's not it. It's just that I thought there wasn't even a one in ten thousand chance of winning, so I didn't want to do something so pointless and didn't want to lose my life in vain.

The so-called god-slayer is a gambler who dares to bet all his chips even if the odds of winning are only one in ten million.

Snatching chestnuts from the fire is what these guys are best at.

However, it is definitely not the kind of idiot who throws himself away when there is no hope.

Gazing at the Sword King's departing figure without hesitation, Marquis Voban remained silent for a long time.

then.

"Humph."

"It seems this world is far more interesting than I thought..."

"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!"

The aged demon king laughed heartily.

The wrinkles on his forehead seemed to have faded slightly.

As a demon king who slays gods, 767's lifespan is naturally not as short as that of ordinary people.

His current aged appearance is largely due to his own mindset.

As a demon king who slays gods, there is nothing in this world that he desires but cannot obtain.

Even killing gods was nothing more than entertainment to him.

Perhaps, among the gods who descended to earth in their unorthodox forms, there were those with even greater power than him.

However, he had long been accustomed to winning countless victories from the hands of the gods and took his victories for granted.

For him, killing gods was no longer a difficult battle or challenge, but rather an occasional physical activity.

But now, the power that Su Mu is displaying far surpasses that of a god-slayer or a disobedient god, a sight he had never been able to see before.

This completely new perspective made him understand.

"So, it turns out there are things I deliberately pursue..."

A higher level!

"Hmph, it seems I can't be too leisurely anymore, or the younger generation will laugh at me..."

Marquis Voban raised his hand to straighten his black suit, then turned and left.

Next, he had to assign tasks to his subordinates—well, those magicians who were swarming around him like ants searching for food—to collect books from all over the world that dealt with mythology or mystical knowledge.

This was something he had promised Su Mu before.

As the Demon King, he wouldn't easily break his promise.

"Oh dear, it really has become dilapidated."

Su Mu held the unconscious Liliana in one arm and muttered to himself.

The girl in his arms had beautiful silver hair that was now disheveled, stained with blood and sweat.

That same was true of the black knight's outfit that had previously given off such a dignified air.

However, Su Mu found this girl exceptionally charming.

Because he had witnessed the resilience and awareness that this seemingly frail and pitiful girl had just displayed.

She may still be clumsy at this time, but the brilliance of her character cannot be concealed by anything.

Such a girl made Su Mu feel a surge of emotion.

Perhaps it's because he can't do these things.

That's why these girls who can do it seem to have an unusual radiance about them.

"Like a rag doll that has been abused and then discarded by a naughty child... No, if I say that, wouldn't I become the naughty child?"
