Swordmaster Healer

Chapter 54 We warn you (1)

“I'll be there.”

Seong-jun gladly nodded and replied. There was no reason to refuse. But I was worried about something.

“But are you sure about this? There was such a commotion at the ceremony.... ”

“The banquet will be kept quiet by inviting only the top officials informally. And don't worry, the memorial is done very seriously. ”

“I'll be there.”

I thought about it for a moment because I wanted to go back to Korea, but I felt it was okay to make connections with the top tiers of the United States, including the president.

“Tomorrow. I've done it again. ”

Jennifer said she was promoted to the head of a special task force, and she was responsible for everything that happened while Seong-jun was in the United States.

“Take good care of her. ”

And then the next day. Seong-jun and Jennifer drove to the banquet hall in a car.

There were a lot of people at the ballroom, but finding Aiden, the president of the United States, was not difficult.

It was because he was at the most crowded place.

Since there was only Aiden who had a face in the banquet hall, Seong-jun moved toward him.

“Sung-jun Kang! ”

As Seong-jun approached, Aiden welcomed him.

“As you all know, this is Kang Sung-jun, New York's hero. ”

As Aiden finishes speaking, a small round of applause pours out. Aiden then introduced others to Seong-jun.

The five men guarding his perimeter were all high-ranking members of the government, including the Vice President of the United States. In particular, U.S. Vice President Rudell showed great interest in Seong-jun.

“Can I talk to you alone for a minute? ”

“You speak Korean well? ”

Seong-jun was surprised at Rudel's fluent Korean skills. Then Rudell smiles faintly.

“I used to be a diplomat in Korea. ”

In his explanation, Seong-jun nodded his head. When I looked around, I thought it would be okay to leave for a while because the eyes of those who complimented Seong-jun were decentralized.

“I think I'll be all right in a minute. ”

“Thank you."

Seong-jun and Rudell took a step into the corner of the banquet hall. After a sip of wine in his hand in the corner, Rudell opened his eyes to Jennifer.

“Since I speak Korean, there's no need for an interpreter. ”

Even Jennifer, who was followed for an interpreter, was interrupted.

Is this a secret story? ’

I was curious about what was coming and going on. When Seong-jun shakes his hand, Jennifer lowers her head slightly and moves away from the two of them.

- Lord, you'd better be careful. The Vice President is hiding his magic.

In Lischevald's report, Seong-jun nods very small instead of answering.

From the moment I met the Vice President of the United States, I learned that he was hiding his magic.

I was hiding my magic with a high level of skill, but the original amount didn't seem to be much. At best, it seemed to possess the power of a Class C Hunter.

- Not only that, I can feel the magic in this world. I don't know when, but I think I've been through a portal.

I don't know why, but Lischevald was sensitive to the signs of the other side.

‘If you crossed the Dimensional Gateway...... Are you saying you're from the Empire? ’

I wanted to ask Lischevald right away, but I couldn't because Rudell was right in front of me.

If you think about it, you couldn't have just sent fighters from the empire. The ducs must have infiltrated Earth to create chaos. Under the circumstances, there is a good chance that Rudell is the Duke of the Empire.

“What do you want to say? ”

Seong-jun urged me. As I thought Rudell might be the Duke of the Empire, Seong-jun became more curious as to why he quietly summoned him.

“Did you receive the 'Righteous Shield’? ”

“A righteous shield? ”

“That's right.”

Seong-jun narrowed his eyes and organized his thoughts. The award of the ‘Righteous Shield’ was a secret situation.

But it was strange that Rudell, the Vice President of the United States, didn't know about it. I looked at his face quickly just in case, but I really didn't know it.

“You have not received any awards yet. ”

On the contrary, Seong-jun, who thought he had a reason for not giving Rudel a 'just shield’.

“Have you received any communication about when the award will take place? ”

“Not at all.”

Seong-jun shook his head and replied. A smile spread over Rudel's mouth.

“I see. I see. ”

Rudell takes a few steps back from Seong-jun, emptying his cup. Together, I opened my mouth, throwing a cool gaze at Seongjun.

“And a word of advice, you'd better get home soon. Don't get too involved in the United States. ”

There is a faint life in your voice. Rudell seemed concerned about keeping his life from leaking out, but he couldn't deceive her. The cold air stream that seeped into his sharp voice was clear to live.

‘I'm sure it's the Imperium. ’

The Vice President of the United States did not have to scatter until he lived with Seong-jun. Seong-jun was convinced that Rudell was an Imperial soldier.

It is said to be hiding its magical power, but given its original amount, there is a good chance that it is not the killing of a ghost unit belonging to the Imperial Special Forces.

- I think he's the Noble Order's noble commander.

Lischewalt said, "No one specializes in political operations like the Noble Order's noble commander." They lack combat skills, but they are a smart elite.

‘I don't feel so good. ’

Seong-jun frowned. I tried to hide it, but it was time to conclude that I could overwhelm the target.

Rudell didn't care about anyone. I didn't feel good because I thought he was shallow.

“I think so, too. ”

Seong-jun, who nodded his head and agreed with Lischevalt's opinion, hurriedly closed his mouth. It was because Jennifer came to see that Rudel and Seong-jun had finished talking.

I couldn't show anyone else the way I was talking to Lischevald. I was sure I was going to treat him as crazy.

“I don't like your face. Did something happen? ”

“Nothing happened. ”

At Jennifer's question, Seong-jun shakes her head. I was not happy about Rudell's attitude to convey a clear ‘warning’, but I could not miss the opportunity to make a connection with the U.S. senior citizens.

The banquet ended late at night. Seong-jun went back to Blair House with Jennifer.

“Then I'll go in, too. Let me know if you need me. ”

Jennifer stayed next door to him for the convenience of Seong-jun because she was in charge of translating. As she left the room, Seong-jun stepped into the bedroom.

Meeting the elders was exhausting. Seong-jun quickly fell asleep.

- Joo-gun!

I felt a tingling pain in my side. On Rishvald's sharp warning, Seong-jun throws himself under the bed.

“Transform!”

Roel, who was in the shape of the ring, regained the look of the sword. Seong-jun instinctively found out the way and stabbed the sword toward it.

“Khh!”

An unexpected counterattack knocks someone back, spewing out their agonizing moan. It was enough to embarrass the enemy, but it did not inflict a fatal wound.

Seong-jun checked his injuries for a short moment while the assassin was rearranging his posture.

‘It was shallow.’

While I was sleeping, the wound was not deep because I read an unusual posture and flew to the side.

Fortunately, the error took off at the subtle moment just before touching the skin. But it was strangely painful.

Seong-jun quickly searched through the assassin's body with his sword raised and measured his magic.

“Are you a special buyer? ”

Specialized killings by Imperial Special Forces Ghosts are, on Earth's scale, an SS-grade intermediate tier skilled. It was never worth it. I raised the shortsword without saying that I could buy a special mask on Seong-jun's question.

- I think I know why the Lord and I have barely detected a course of action.

Lischevald says, "Sung-jun nods slightly instead of answering." The ‘hidden’ of the special assassin was worth avoiding the eyes of 63% of Seongjun and Lischevalt.

Moreover, it was understandable that he did not detect hiding because he was asleep.

‘Now I have a righteous shield. ’

Although the attack on the Specialist Killer had put him at a disadvantage, he was relieved that he was wearing the SS class item 'Righteous Shield’. The existence of the 'Righteous Shield’ hanging around my neck is clearly felt.

‘Is the Vice President behind this…? ’

A special assassin has been assaulted in a terrifying way to inform false information that he has not received the ‘Righteous Shield’. It can never be a coincidence.

- Incoming!

Rishwald warns you. The prowler quickly looks around and swings his shortsword at Seongjun.

Seong-jun raised his sword and tried to defend himself. I thought I had successfully defended myself. But it was a mistake.

“Grrrgh!"

I felt pain in my thighs. Seong-jun checked the wound as he reacted. It was not deep, but was accompanied by severe pain.

‘Items with cursing options must be present. ’

I couldn't explain the pain if it wasn't an item. However, it was not unbearable because I had suffered a lot in my previous life.

‘There is no room for Petrifying Curse or Dragon Pier. ’

Seong-jun cleared his mind by removing or removing the shortsword wielded by the Special Killer.

The Pokémon exchanges swords so quickly that it cannot use moves that are large or that require a lot of time to operate their magic.

Close to 100 rounds per second came and went. While the battle rages on, there is no way for anyone to run.

As if the dimensions had been cut off, I did not feel any other tactics than executing the privilege.

“Dimensional disconnection! ”

“Have you noticed now? You're just as dumb as Rowkel taught you! ”

Dimensional breakage blocks the interior completely from the exterior. Seong-jun bit his lip slightly.

It was an unexpected situation for support. He decided to trust his‘ Hill ’abilities.

“Haha!”

He fights with a dusk sword. It was a sword that prepared death and poured everything into attack.

“Oops!”

It was an unexpected blow, even for a privileged assassin. Through the heart of Seong-jun's black special assassin. However, Seong-jun was also not fine.

“Grrrgh!"

The blade pierced the abdomen just before the protagonist stabbed the heart. The viscera is critically damaged.

However, I did not smile at Seong-jun's mouth. The Special Assassin who saw it opened his mouth.

“My intestines are completely damaged. What's so funny? ”

“I'm sorry, but I'm an SS grade recovery system... Heel! ”

The Pokémon recovers from critical damage but begins to recover at a rapid rate. The SS grade recovery system was able to heal even fatal injuries if only the heart and head were intact.

“F-frightening……. ”

“Nothing is cowardly on the battlefield. ”

The protagonist has lost his words. But he soon smiled. At the same time, a powerful horsepower reaction was detected.

- Self-destruct!

Rishwald warns. There are those who choose to self-destruct when the assassination fails. Seong-jun opened his mouth, enchanting the ‘Righteous Shield’.

“Absolute Shield! ”

A colorless shield protected Seong-jun as she emitted light from the necklace. And a dazzling light hit Seong-jun.

I didn't even feel the shock, but I could tell by the flow of magical power it was a massive explosion.
