  I jumped up from the green deer I was riding and rushed to Sagittarius. He launched a punch, and I summoned Gwalchavad in front of me.

  Boom-!

  As Gwalchavad’s shield and Sagittarius’s punch collided, a roar rang out. Gwalchavad had blocked Sagittarius’s punch, which made 1,000 dragon tooth soldiers turn into dust.

  "Kuaaaaaaah!"

  However, in return, the arms made of dragon bones supporting Gwalchavad’s shield were shattered.

  "It’s no ordinary shield!"

  Sagittarius was surprised to see the shield without a scratch-

  Success! Master!

  After screaming in pain from his arms breaking, Gwalchavad suppressed the pain and sent a thought transmission.

  With no time to answer the thought transmission, I stepped on Gwalchavad’s back, jumped over Sagittarius, and cut the neck of the Witch of Greed who had her guard down. The seven knights that were sacrificed earlier were purely discarded to lower the witch’s guard. They also knew that and were willing to be sacrificed for me.

  "Selina!"

  Sagittarius called the Witch of Greed, but the witch, with her neck and body separated, fell helplessly to the ground.

  The person causing the most interference in the battle against Sagittarius was the Witch of Greed, a great madosa. It was common sense to remove obstacles preceding the battle.

  "How dare you!"

  "Emergency escape!"

  Sagittarius threw his fist at my clearly revealed back, and I quickly teleported to his flank. Then, I cut his shoulder with the Holy Sword.

  Slash!

  I definitely sliced the arm with the intention of severing it off completely, but it only made a shallow cut and was bleeding lightly. After being hit by the arrows, Sagittarius had been wearing a protective strong aura all over his body.

  "Emergency escape!"

  Sagittarius turned and punched towards where I was. I had already teleported behind him and cut with all my power.

  "Emergency escape!"

  After cutting, I immediately teleported to a position that I "predicted" was his blind spot.

  Done in by my teleportation twice, Sagittarius looked from the angle when he was cut and punched in the direction that seemed to be his blind spot. However, his fist split nothing but the air.

  "Emergency escape!"

  I predicted his prediction and cut him from the new blind spot then teleported. Rather, if I were moving so fast that to be visible to the eye, he would have seen the muscle movement just before moving and figured out where I would move to.

  However, teleportation was a movement that omitted such an intermediate process. Sagittarius predicted my position and swung his fist again, but I predicted his prediction and cut him. Since then, rather than a physical fight, the battle between us turned into a cerebral fight of reading the opponent’s movements in advance.

  If the Witch of Greed’s head hadn’t been cut off, and she managed to interfere with my teleportation once, I would have been hit dead or at least at death’s door. Therefore, using Gwalchavad’s shield that could block unconditionally just once, I had dealt with her.

  The battle that took place under the calculation that I must never allow a single blow did not deviate from my expectations. This battle was truly a race in which the victory or defeat would be determined by whether Sagittarius’s body collapsed first or I allowed a single one-hit-kill attack. There was no time for others to intervene, and Sagittarius and my fight of predictions continued with dozens and hundreds of attacks and dodges per second.

  "Ahahaha! My senses tell me it’s definitely right here!"

  Sagittarius shouted and punched in the air; He missed while I cut his side. Still, the steel-like body only received shallow cuts.

  "It’s within my expectations!"

  For your information, I have never lost to anyone except Hestia noona in a battle of wits. The tactics I designed to deal with my father worked on Mac hyung. However, this battle could not continue indefinitely. My mana circuit, which had already failed to recover properly due to excessive work earlier, was informing me of when I’d reach my limit.

  But it was the same with Sagittarius.

  No matter how thick and strong the protective strong aura was, the blood flowing from tens of thousands of wounds cut by the Holy Sword was like a turned hourglass that was draining until Sagittarius reach his limit.

  It was Sagittarius who brought an end to the long but short battle.

  "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

  Sagittarius shouted and emitted mana from his whole body. Dragon tooth soldiers surrounding him were caught up in a sudden mana wave and thrown to the ground. It was the same for me as well. Rather, because I was the closest to him, I directly received the shock from the release of mana. Just before I was about to get stuck in the ground, I managed to regain my balance and landed on the ground.

  The bloody Sagittarius stretched and smiled pleasantly. "Ah, it was fun for the first time in a while! It’s my first time fighting against a magic swordsman who can use both magic and a sword properly, but it’s terrifying. Hahaha!"

  "Is that so? But to correct one thing, I’m not a magic swordsman, I’m a magician."

  "What? Even though you’re so good with a sword."

  "To be a magic swordsman, one needs to be able to use magic and the sword at similar levels, but compared to my magic, my swordsmanship is lacking quite a lot. I can’t even use the heart sword.”


  Sagittarius laughed pleasantly at my correction.

  "Ahahaha! You speak of heart sword too easily. Of course, I can’t use heart sword either,” he said.

  I was surprised on one hand but also convinced. According to Elder Weger, my swordsmanship teacher, the heart sword is a longing to cut something. I don’t know exactly what it means, but if longing was important, it wasn’t likely that a person with overwhelming power to destroy anything would long for it.

  "And unfortunately, I didn’t give my all just now because I’m lacking mana," I said.

  Sagittarius looked at me interestedly. "Oh! Really? That’s too bad. I guess it’s natural since we were fighting with the two great madosas a few hours ago?” But soon he smacked his lips. "It’s too bad. I want to fight more, but I think I have to leave right away."

  Sagittarius raised his martial aura again, and I tried to teleport again. However, the moment he took out a bead with a small chain from his breast pocket and poured mana into it, I felt a violent dizziness. I couldn’t use magic because of it.

  "This is the end of the fight.”


  As soon as Sagittarius finished speaking, I knelt down and vomited out my empty stomach multiple times.

  "Uwaaaaaccck!"

  Even though I couldn’t eat anything all day because I was fighting, I felt nauseous and vomited something.

  “**! ******!”


  Gwalchavad rushed to me in a trice and shouted something, but I couldn’t hear it-

  I curse you! I curse you! I curse you! I curse you! I curse you!

  Instead, I heard countless voices cursing with desperation in my head. The voices were male, female, children, and the elderly. The voices full of hatred denied and cursed my life and resented me-

  Please spare the child!-

  Please don’t kill me!-

  Why! Why!-

  Just end it with me!

  It wasn’t just sound that came out. Countless intangible touches wrapped around my whole body and grabbed my arms and legs and grabbed my neck as if resentful.

  "Kuck!"

  Suddenly, my chest became so tight that I couldn’t breathe. The numerous voices that contained all kinds of curses whispered in my ears in one voice-

  I curse you, Crow Tribe. Enemy of the Giants.

  I unleashed martial arts all over my body at full power-

  You will be destroyed, too.

  "Shut up, you ******! Fusion Enlightenment, Firefly’s Bright Annihilation!"

  A brilliant, golden martial art surrounded my whole body and got rid of the grudges that were clinging and cursing me. However, I wasn’t able to shake them off completely and my condition was at its worst. I was at my limit, more so than ever before in this life.

  Ahh, is the limit such a high and large wall?

  Nevertheless, I didn’t care. Naturally, I got up with the Holy Sword. My pride did not allow me to surrender to just my limit.

  "Master! Are you all right?!"

  With no time to respond to Gwalchavad’s concerns, I stared at Sagittarius, short of breath.

  Sagittarius was rather flustered. "What? Why is the curse working so well? Are you guys Crows?”


  I looked at Uncle Bloody and Mac hyung.

  Uncle Bloody stood up with shaky legs, propping himself up with his sword, and Mac hyung was kneeling exhausted.

  Sagittarius flicked his finger and shot strong aura at my, Uncle Bloody and Mac hyung’s forehead. I wielded the Holy Sword to deflect the strong aura, but the two were hit as they were and their masks were smashed.

  "Bloody? And aren’t you Gawain’s friend?"

  Sagittarius knew the two well.

  "Then, who are you? Mirpa, although old, is a woman, so you’re not her. A man who’s good with a sword and magic. Demeter? Palson? Trailon? Chakram? Kaldra?”


  Sagittarius looked at me and listed the names of my seniors who reached the level of a madosa.

  "I’m not any of them. Who are you?" I asked.

  Sagittarius took off his mask and said, "I’m Galak Blade. Who are you?"

  I momentarily laughed in vain. That’s why Aunt Talaria hid Sagittarius’s identity.

  That damn ahjumma!

  "It’s been a while, Great-Grandfather. Has it been nine years?”


  When I said hello while taking off my mask, my great-grandfather laughed pleasantly.

  "Ahahaha! Denburg! So it was you! I can’t believe that 10-year-old kid has become so strong. What a blessing to the village!”


  "By the way, please undo this freaking annoying curse. What is this? This damn curse?”


  The curse my great-grandfather placed on me constantly cursed me and whispered, telling me to die.

  "Oh, this? It is the sad treasure of the Crows and the product of sin that has been handed down to the chief from generation to generation. You’ve heard of the Curse of the Giants, right?”


  Unless our tribe’s innate dexterity was due to the Curse of the Giants, it was clear that that was one of the top five magic tools, the Curse of the Giants.

  "If it is passed down to the chief, why does Great-Grandfather have it, not my father?"

  My great-grandfather smiled lightly at my question.

  "That’s because I didn’t hand it over to Zendia."

  "Why?"

  "Aquarius, your grandfather will try to kill me with this."

  My great-grandfather knew that my grandfather belonged to the Twelve Zodiacs.

  "I still have work to do."

  "Do you mean summoning the Demon King? Why are you trying to summon the Demon King again after killing him?” I asked.

  My great-grandfather smiled bitterly. "Who said I killed the Demon King? I didn’t kill the Demon King. No, I couldn’t."

  "What do you……?”


  I didn’t understand. You couldn’t kill the Demon King?

  Even before I could organize my thoughts, my great-grandfather stepped into the air and approached me.

  "Honestly, it’s hard to move right now, right? Because of the curse.”


  "If you know, undo it right now.”


  My great-grandfather smiled playfully.

  "I don’t want to. Just stay still for a second. As you get older, you can do things like this.”


  My great-grandfather brought up martial arts to the max and punched right next to me.

  Boom-!

  The fist that cut through the air roared and tore up the space creating a hole.

  "Oh, it’s big. A large village would fit in there easily."

  What I saw through the hole was an all too familiar sight, my pocket space.

  "Are you crazy?!"

  He broke through the dimensional wall with his bare fist? It was truly beyond common sense.

  The torn dimension was quickly restored, and my great-grandfather brought out the Prophecy of the Holy Tribe and healing potions from my pocket space with aura control.[1] Then, he immediately poured the healing potion all over his body.

  "Wow! It still hurts like crazy!"

  The countless wounds he received from me healed quickly.

  "Should I run away quickly now that I got what I wanted?"

  "What? Run away? What need is there for a monster like Grandfather to run away?"

  Before my question ended, a huge strong aura fell down from the sky.

  "Ahahaha! It’s earlier than I thought.”


  My great-grandfather quickly moved away and a giant fell right in front of me.

  "You won’t be able to run away anymore, Grandfather!"

  It was Doomstone Blade, my father, who appeared in front of me.

  "Father?!"

  "Ahahaha! I’m leaving!"

  My great-grandfather began to run away, and my father glanced at me and said, "Youngest, see you in a little while. Be prepared to get hit on the butt if you run away again!”


  Father jumped high into the air and chased after my great-grandfather.

  One thing was for sure.

  I was ****** now.

  1. Aura control is moving objects remotely with your aura.
