The Greatest Architect

33. Light-speed construction into muscle (1)

“A blade pierces a few meters of rock. What do you mean? ”

Xaviel frowns.

His eyes were looking this way.

What nonsense is full of disbelief.

“I just don’t get it. Can I be honest with you? ”

“Honestly?”

“Yes.”

“How about that? You want to hit him with the facts again without filtering, right? ”

“Again, I never assaulted Lloyd. ”

“There is?”

“When? ”

“At the anthill. You punched me in the face with your fist, right? ”

“Of course……. ”

“Oh, and then I blew a triple whistle to wake up. Right?”

“It was two. The third one stopped right before I hit it. Lloyd woke up. ”

“Aha, did you regret it? ”

“Of course… No, no. ”

“ ……. ”

“Anyway, to get back to the point where, frankly, I’ve never heard of a sword that did such a thing. ”

“Nothing?”

“Yes, even a sodmaster. ”

“Really?”

“Yes.”

It was true.

A hole a few meters deep in the rock with just a sword.

Even exploding rocks through that hole.

I’ve never heard of it.

The story of the many remaining sovereign masters in history.

‘Progress was later than anyone else, but it was impossible for Lord Michael, who was once called the greatest in 10,000 years. The recorded sword error of Sir Michael is approximately 1 meter. Even if I added an error to the length of the sword, I could only cut or destroy a range a little more than two meters. ’

The sword.

The technique of laying concentrated Mana on a sword.

It was a technique that could be a symbol of the Swordmaster.

But there were limits to that destructive technology.

It was that you could not attack enemies in a distance beyond the range of error.

After all, it’s a black melee weapon. ’

No matter how powerful an attack may be, you have to go in there and cut and stab it.

You can’t attack a ranged enemy like a wizard can.

It was a trait and weakness of the master.

“But Lloyd ignores that common sense. He’s advising me that he’s going to teach me imaginary technology that doesn’t exist. It’s like……. ”

“Do you think I’m talking crazy? ”

“Yes.”

Xaviel nods coldly.

“Obviously. Crazy or crazy or crazy or crazy or whatever the hell you’re saying. ”

“Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey. ”

“What’s a deal? ”

“Phew, got it. Anyway.”

Lloyd smiles bloody.

“What would you do if I taught you that skill? ”

“Do you really think that’s possible? ”

“Really? Answer me first. ”

“If Lloyd’s plea is true,”

Xaviel said with a serious look.

“Then I will gladly do as Lloyd wills. ”

“Really? You’ll do as I say? ”

“Of course.”

Xaviel nods.

If Lloyd was telling the truth, there was nothing to lose.

At the same time, he thought.

That offer will be a bluff.

That kind of nonsense is impossible.

“Good. That’s settled. So from now on”

Lloyd reaches out his hand.

I grabbed Xaviel’s shoulder.

And he said it like it wasn’t a big deal.

“Can you pull out your sword, raise the rotation of the Mana circle to its maximum, and force two circles to clash together? ”

“…… Yes? ”

“Oh, don’t let the rest of the circles get involved in the conflict. I have to protect the heart. If you don’t, your heart will go into shock with a triple-axel. Cross the Jordan in one line. ”

“What are you saying… …. ”

“Give it a try. ”

“Here, now? ”

“Huh.”

Lloyd nods.

Xaviel feels distressed.

‘Is that possible? ’

I felt like my common sense was being destroyed.

It was a part of the body, like Asran.

Nevertheless, this attempt was only unfamiliar to him.

It was an attempt in a way I never thought of.

No, I never thought it would be possible.

Of course I did.

Each Mana Circle rotates faster as the output is raised.

The faster the spin, the more powerful the Pokémon becomes.

Pushing each other away like polar magnets.

And you want me to forcibly crash it?

“It’s okay. Just keep your heart tight with the rest of the circle and you won’t die. ”

“ ……. ”

Lloyd said too much.

That’s why I felt less trustworthy.

Of course, Xaviel had no idea.

Another self in time and space that is different from here.

That he invented this technique in the Knights of Novel Blood.

This technique is one of the most powerful techniques in the history of the Loracian continent.

‘Of course, that was going to happen a long time from now. ’

Lloyd suddenly remembered the contents of the novel.

confined blasting.

At the time of developing this technique, Xaviel was on the verge of a God-soldmaster.

He also mounted a fourth circle.

Combination of the Swordmaster and Quadra Circle.

That was the only combination that ever made it to the top of the line.

But even with that power, he is faced with a power limit.

The Wall of Namaran.

It was a wall of evil and powerful defenses.

Behind that wall, there were thousands of refugees he needed to save.

Even with the sword of error, the Mana Amplification of Quadra Circle could not break the barrier.

In that state, time passed in vain.

The day of the Wicked Wizard’s announcement is near.

At this rate, thousands of refugees were sacrificed as ceremonies by wizards.

And finally a day of bright destiny.

Xaviel, struggling to break through the Wall, attempts a final attack.

It causes two circles to collide without even knowing it.

It was the first time he used a technique or wave that he could not even imagine.

It was also the moment when Namaran’s barrier collapsed with unimaginable power.

‘Since then, Javier has become the main machine that Javier likes to use most. ’

Literally, it was placed with the Asran cardinal law as a representative technique for the Knights of Iron.

And now you’re teaching him that?

On the other hand, it felt strange.

‘I’ll have to learn it later when I become a Triple Circle. ’

I couldn’t do it even if I wanted to.

Two circles to impact.

Other than that, one circle to protect the heart was absolutely necessary.

In other words, waves were a skill that could only be learned at the level of Triple Circle.

‘Of course, Triple Circle doesn’t make it easy. ’

That would be Xaviel, too.

That’s how Lloyd laughs.

“Well, I’m still hesitating. You don’t believe me? ”

“ ……. ”

“Are you afraid? ”

“Of course not. However”

“Only?”

“I need you to promise me something. ”

“Hmm, a promise? ”

“The new technology that Lloyd taught me. ”

“Yes.”

“If that’s a lie or a bad joke to make fun of me…. ”

“What if it’s a joke?”

“Please extend your lullaby service indefinitely in the future. ”

“Hurrah.”

It was a bolder offer than I thought.

At the same time, it was also an offer to make sure he knew what he was thinking about the inner lullaby service.

“Now that I see you,

Lloyd’s eyes are filled with a sly smile.

“You can’t live without a lullaby service? ”

Twitch.

Xaviel’s shoulders twitch very faintly.

Lloyd continued.

“What are you going to do? Are you sure? ”

“That’s too much to surmise. ”

“Huh. Look me in the eye and tell me? ”

“I never turned my back on Lloyd. ”

“My eyes are stuck in my nostrils? ”

“ ……. ”

“Okay, I promise. ”

“Are you sure?”

“Well, if what I’m saying is a lie or a joke to you, then lullaby service, infinite refills ahead. Even for free.”

“You promised. ”

“Okay, just try it. You didn’t forget how to tell me earlier, did you? ”

“Yes.”

Shhh.

Xaviel draws Longsword.

Lloyd takes a few steps back.

‘It’s my first time trying, so I’m a little worried…… But Xaviel can’t go wrong practicing this. ’

It was Xaviel who was a few steps ahead of this in the Asran Law.

Has triple circles

He also had excellent control over every Mana Circle.

I was approached by craftsmanship and sophistication.

I tried the concept for the first time, but I believed that it would not hurt my heart.

‘Of course, you will suffer for at least a few days. ’

In the body, it was also a technique that collided with mana circles rotating at high speed near the heart.

Naturally, there will be tremendous shocks and burdens on the body.

Even a swordsmanship genius takes that long to get used to it.

“So it’s only a week early? Maybe more than a full night. Then I think I should start mining from there and schedule the construction…. ’

Tuck!

“It worked.”

“ ……. ”

Unbelievable things have happened.

Lloyd opens his mouth without even knowing it.

You look at Xaviel a few steps ahead.

And I threw my gaze a little further.

There are traces on the ground that were never there before.

“It’s not as difficult as I feared. ”

“ ……. ”

There was an enormous, 10-metre long burrow.

It wasn’t just traces that were sold from the outside of the rug.

An elongated hole in the ground.

An explosion erupts from the inside, turning the mortar into a straight line.

“Hey, Xaviel? ”

“Yes, Lloyd. ”

“Are you a monster? ”

“No. I’m a human being, of course. ”

“ ……. ”

Monster, I think you’re right.

Or the son of a friend of mine, who thought he only existed as a legend.

Lloyd looks at Xaviel in a daze.

Xaviel smiles gracefully with just one lip.

“Thank you, Lloyd. You weren’t mocking me. ”

“Did you know that now? ”

“Yes.”

“Hurrah. Look at the audacity. ”

“I had no choice. It’s a concept I’ve never thought about. ”

“Does that make any sense now? ”

“Yes, but”

“Only? What else? ”

“I wonder how Lloyd came up with such a subtle technique. ”

“Why? Can’t I think of something like this? ”

“Of course not……. ”

Xaviel frowns.

Lloyd tightens his neck.

“Never mind. Keep your promise. You know I’m not making fun of you, right? ”

“Yes.”

“So you’re just gonna do what I tell you to do? ”

“I’d be happy to do anything. ”

If he’s cold, he’ll be sure.

Xaviel nods.

At that moment, a message appeared before my eyes.

Ding-dong.

[Xaviel Asrahan is grateful for your teaching.]

[Xaviel Asrahan’s affection for you has increased +3.]

[Current relationship with Xaviel Asrahan: 11]

[Slightly improved relationships with key people earned 54 RP.]

[Current RP: 561]

‘Good.’

I felt confident that he had surrendered himself to this task.

Now, his performance (?) during the test.

♣

“Now, you’re going to act like a human dynamite. ”

The next morning was bright.

Far west from Orc territory.

Lloyd raised a large brush in the granite area at the foot of the mountain range.

And I soaked it in the pot I was holding in my arms.

Fast forward.

The red paint from the Orcs was smeared on the brush.

Lloyd holds up a red painted brush.

Cook it on the floor at regular intervals.

“Here. And here. Here it is again.”

Deep down!

A red dot the size of your fist is etched into the floor.

“See where I’m marking? ”

“Yes. Can I put a sword in it?” ”

“Yes, brilliant. Stab, smash Mana Circle, boom. You know?”

“I see. But is there a certain depth? ”

“Yes. 10 meters. ”

“10 meters?”

“That’s the deepest hole you can make right now. Right?”

“Yes.”

“Stab evenly at the depths. And blow it up. With power. ”

Lloyd clenches his fist and looks at it.

“Calculating the depth of the blast in the first place, placing a dent in it. But after you blow it all up, you have to run like hell to where I am? Otherwise, you’re stuck on a collapsing rock and you need to know. Okay?”

“… OK. ”

Xaviel nods.

Lloyd stepped back a few feet from the bomb site.

You raise your arms high toward Xaviel.

“Three! Two! One! Fire in the Hall! ”

I shouted aloud.

One second later, you see Xaviel raise his sword.

Soon his appearance disappeared. No, it’s blurry. You poke the sword into the rock, moving at a haunted speed.

Seeing that, Lloyd clenches his fist.

‘Please succeed. ’

Successful mining makes it incredibly easy.

Just like there was a revolution in the quarry because of the dynamite invented by Swedish scientist Alfred Nobel. Like a primitive hammer and lever used to make dozens of people mow down stones they had dug up in just a few days.

If Xaviel can be ANFO, or Newmite, for modern emissions, he can complete the glacier within the month.

‘That’s why I taught him to wave. Please pay the price! ’

Lloyd prayed.

And I saw it.

Flash!

“ ……! ”

A flash of light rises across the massive granite rock.

Shortly after, Xaviel rushes over here like a hurricane.

Arrives in a flash and stops right in front of you.

“I’ve been back.”

Huff.

He hung his sword against Longsword.

At that moment,

Speech!

Fierce shock waves and gusts from the granite zone.

A huge rock splits into dozens of pieces.

A giant collapses.

* Cough *…!

An overwhelming rush to shake the ground.

Lloyd clenched his fist without even knowing it. I was sure.

“That’s enough.”

Finally, all the construction is ready.

Now, it was time to begin the real construction.
