Swordmeister of Rome Chapter 212

Chapter 212: Battle

Aksarai told Sian a lot of things when he woke up.

<I can’t use my power yet. My power requires my body so it can’t be used with your body. But, it’s better for you because your body has adapted to using the most important power of all. Now that I mention it, if you were able to use other powers, you would be much weaker now.>

“Hmm.”

<It doesn’t change the fact that you’re useless though. I made other connectors find out about other things while you were asleep.>

“Wait. How long was I asleep?”

Aksarai answered,

<2 weeks.>

“That wasn’t too long.”

Sian was worried that he had used years to absorb the energy. That would have ended the situation as no one would be able to fight against the Lukras or Harijans, but two weeks was fine. He had not become strong enough, but he still had time.

Aksarai then spoke to him.

<That’s not important. We are running out of time.>

“Hm?”

Sian became confused and Aksarai asked again,

<Let me ask you. How strong have you become? I do not know everything about your state. You should know it best yourself.>

Sian then thought for a second and answered,

“I can probably handle Dragona.”

Aksarai became satisfied. Absorbing the great power didn’t automatically make one powerful. It greatly relied on the individual’s talent, but Sian was talented in that regard.

<So, you successfully absorbed my power. Good. We can move on with the plan then.>

“You have a plan?”

<Yes. We are weaker so we need to make plans.>

“…”

<You fool. You never planned for anything in your entire life? Right… I remember how Narasha or Lagaope had a hard time with you.>

Sian became embarrassed and spoke.

“I will do what I want. So, what’s the plan?”

<Yes. It’s good that you woke up fast.. and became much more powerful than I expected. I made Conrad research the barrier’s range and the movement of those Harijans.>

“Hmm…”

<We are at a disadvantage. The Lukra and Drakuns are equal in power, but if the Lukras regain control of Dragona, Liona, and Chrona, the power balance will crumble.>

“Right.”

<And Lukras still have their Holy Land. They will run back to the place if they can’t win. But they can’t use the crystal since they have lost the key.>

“Crystal…?”

<The one you saw at the top of the mountain. You have the key to it.>

Sian then knew what the key was.

“You’re talking about Gran-Ra’s sword.”

<Correct. That’s why I told you to not to use the sword since you ran from Dragona.>

“Oh…”

<If you took up the sword, those Lukras would have to either kill you or force you return it to them. But that would be a great loss. Rather than just being a key, that sword also serves other purposes.>

Sian nodded. He had never used the sword to its full potential. Broxian’s silver spear that he used when he fought against that lobster was very powerful and the sword did not fall behind.

“That’s fortunate.”

<Then you know how much I helped you.>

“…”

<Anyway, the holy ground is a problem for later. That’s something we’ll take care of after we defeat them. What you need to do now is to kill those Harijans. It’s good that you woke up now. We don’t have much time but we have enough…>

“What do you mean?”

Aksarai explained,

<The barrier is still there and the Lukras aren’t controlling the Harijans yet. They are hesitating on attempting to control the beasts before the barrier is completely lifted. They are afraid that their failed attempt will make those beasts chose to attack rather than letting themselves be controlled.>

“I see.”

Sian nodded. Those Harijans would probably decide to attack the beings that tried to take control over them. They did not attack Lukras because they were afraid they will kill them in return, but if they knew they would be controlled, they would rather fight.

Aksarai continued,

<So, if the Lukras do take full control over them, it will be too late. You have no other option than to side with the Drakuns and fight against those Lukras. But you will lose.>

“Right.”

If the war was to win, Sian had to fight Dragona, Liona, and Chrona, all three at once. But he wasn’t that strong yet.

<We will have to kill the Harijans before they get controlled by the Lukras. At least one… if you managed to kill all three, that will be the best option. Although, I doubt that’s possible.>

Sian nodded. It didn’t seem possible to kill all three within two weeks.

“Who should I attack first then?”

<Liona. That one is the most farthest from them all. Dragona and Chrona are too close to the Lukras. You will never know what might happen.>

“Hm… where do I find him?”

Aksarai laughed.

<You should become a bait.>

“…”

<I made Conrad prepare a few things but he has his limit. It’s up to you to lure it and kill it. Let’s go then.>

“Where should I go?”

Sian sighed as he readied to leave. There was no time to waste.

<Go to the Great Eastern Sea. Go south from where we are right now.>

The Great Eastern Sea.

South of Don-Nasian and east of the Ra-Sian Continent.

No one crossed the ocean as it was filled with countless Harijans.

Above it was a man running across the vast open space, unleashing his massive energy. Harijans and Merpeople that lived within the sea were fleeing from the power. But Harijans did not know that this was not the man’s full power. Sian was controlling his power as he ran across the sea.

<Right. Control it… that’s good.>

“Should this work?”

<Yes. It will let Liona know while the other two won’t know.>

“If I let out my full power, he won’t come near me.”

Aksarai laughed.

<Yes. It’s actually fortunate that Liona followed you to the Great Forest. If he didn’t, he would be suspicious of you. A man running across the sea while unleashing the power? It’s too suspicious.>

“Right.”

Sian nodded.

<But Liona knows you. He knows how you ran in your weak self. You didn’t hide your power back then so Liona must be thinking you are at that level. He will not imagine that you became this strong within a few weeks.>

“Right.”

Even Sian did not imagine he could become this powerful in that short time period.

<That’s the chance. Kill him when he comes. Don’t let him get away.>

“I know.”
