Chapter 80: Total Sovereign War (3)

Hwaaack!

Kang-jun was covered in a dazzling light and appeared in a room.

It was an enclosed space. There was a magic circle flashing on the floor.

The red light from the resurrection gem was also there in a corner of the room. It looked like the training room in the Army Headquarters.

[Sovereign Lucan from the 439th Army!]

[Welcome to the Total Sovereign War.]

A voice was heard coming from somewhere.

[You will now compete with the other total sovereigns in the Total Sovereign War.]

[We will select 10 commander candidates.]

After that, Kang-jun was surrounded by a light again.

Once the light disappeared, he was standing on circle in a vacant lot.

At Kang-jun’s feet, the letters spelling out Sovereign Lucan were glittering.

Blazing lava surrounded the vacant lot but fortunately, he couldn’t feel the heat.

[This is a duel.]

[You must duel a total of 50 times.]

[The duel opponents will be randomly selected among the total sovereigns and you can’t face the same opponent twice.]

[Once the duel is over, 10 commander candidates will be selected based on the highest victory points.]

[You can win the duel by killing your opponent or pushing them out of the arena.]

[Two victory points will be obtained when a duel is won.]

[One victory point will be deducted when a duel is lost.]

[In the case of a draw, there will be no addition or subtraction of points.]

Unexpectedly, it wasn’t a tournament style.

The opponent would be determined at random and points would be based on winning or losing. Although it was cumbersome, it was a more rational way to determine the true candidates.

The disadvantage of a tournament style was that the loser would be excluded, no matter what.

For example, the number one and number two talents might end up facing each other, causing one of them to drop out. Therefore, a person who was less skilled than the one who dropped out might become one of the 10 commander candidates.

That was less likely if the victory points method was used. It would be natural for the strong players to maintain a high score if they randomly dueled 50 times.

‘I thought it was a tournament but this is quite a hassle.’

Well, it didn’t matter what approach was used. He just needed to win the fights.

[A duel against Achel, the 276th Army’s total sovereign, will begin in 10 seconds.]

10, 9, 8…]

‘Is it starting straight away?’

Kang-jun grabbed the Vampire Lord’s sword and stared straight ahead.

[…3, 2, 1, 0.]

[Start the duel.]

[The time limit is 3 minutes.]

The sovereign name flashed at the circle on the other side.

Sovereign Achel.

A man with red hair appeared on top of it. He had determined eyes and a sharp nose. He was holding a big battle axe that made him seem two metres tall.

Kang-jun estimated him to be a Nordic person and he was reminded of an ancient Viking warrior. This was the first foreign sovereign he had seen.

‘Then that means we can see each other’s appearances here.’

Previously, he had only been able to recognize the sovereigns by the names glittering on their chest.

However, that wasn’t the case now. He could even see a dot on Achel’s left cheek.

“Hahaha! Sovereign Lucan? It is your misfortune to be my first opponent.”

The language was automatically translated, so it wasn’t strange that Kang-jun heard Achel’s words as Korean.

Achel smiled arrogantly with an expression that showed he was confident about winning.

“There is no time. Then, I will attack.”

Achel rushed in as his battle axe flashed.

Swiing!

The red light from the battle axe caused a ghostly red flame.

Sswing! Sswing! Sswing sswing!

There was a barrage of strikes from the battle axe!

He didn’t swing it wildly.

‘Stronger than Zenith.’

He was the strongest among the sovereigns he had seen.

Someone like this was his first opponent. The world was wide and there were many sovereigns.

Kang-jun avoided the battle axe’s offensive and stabbed Achel’s neck with his sword.

Puok!

Achel’s eyes widened.

“U-unbelievable!”

The battle axe he was holding with both hands dropped to the ground. He grabbed his neck, shuddered and fell down.

[You have won the duel.]

[Two victory points have been obtained.]

[Your condition will be restored.]

[The next duel will shortly begin.]

Meanwhile, Achel’s body had disappeared into smoke. There were no traces of blood on the floor.

Additionally, a light surrounded his body and he felt refreshed.

It was a light that would restore any injuries during the duel and get rid of fatigue.

[A duel against Elabul, the 117th Army’s total sovereign, will begin in 10 seconds.

[10, 9, 8… 2, 1, 0.]

[Start the duel.]

It was a blond and blue-eyed western beauty.

Her weapon was a bow. It was a stunning blue bow. A quiver decorated with blue features and filled with arrows was at her waist.

It was a big weapon for a slim figure. She looked like a female elf.

Ping!

Unlike Achel, Elabul didn’t utter any words. She fired an arrow toward Kang-jun the moment the duel began.

Pak!

The arrows appeared in front of him in the blink of an eye! The arrowhead shone with a blue light as it flew.

There was another arrow in the place where Kang-jun tried to escape! When he tried to avoid it again, three arrows flew at once.

Pipiping!

An infinite number of arrows seemed to be coming from her quiver. It was enough to turn any opponent into a porcupine.

However, Kang-jun avoided the arrows and approached her.

“Ah!”

Elabul stepped back with shock but it was too late as Kang-jun’s sword had already cut her throat.

Seokeok!

Duk.

Elabul’s head fell off. Her body turned into smoke and scattered.

[You have won the duel.]

[Two victory points have been obtained.]

[Your condition will be restored.]

[The next duel will shortly begin.]

The next opponent was Sovereign Damas.

It was someone holding two swords. He was a tall person who gave off a sharp impression. His face was like a Japanese person.

Surung.

Damas glanced at Kang-jun and raised his swords.

They were two swords of different lengths.

Chakang! Chu chu chuk!

The two swords shone with a red light.

“Be prepared.”

Damas came forward after his brief words.

After that, there was a storm of attacks.

Kakang! Kang! Kakakang!

Kang-jun attacked calmly. He was much stronger than the two preceding sovereigns. It was an offensive worthy of a lord’s clone.

Flash! Papapat!

He even used a skill. It was a powerful skill where the two swords divided into dozens and flew in every direction.

However, Kang-jun received all of them.

There was no need to avoid them. The power of Heaven’s Blood Sword Style rose along with his level.

Astonishment appeared in Damas’ eyes after he saw Kang-jun receive his skill. He glanced at Kang-jun like he couldn’t believe it.

“Who are you?”

“Lucan. It is funny to ask when you already know.”

The sovereign name was written on the floor. Besides, shouldn’t he have asked for the opponent’s name before the duel?

Damas’ expression then changed.

“Lucan… I heard that you are the strongest exorcist in the world right now. Of course, I don’t believe such rumours.”

Damas seemed to have read an article about Kang-jun. Kang-jun laughed.

“It is just a groundless rumour.”

Then he stepped forward.

Who cared about such rumours? The important thing was this moment.

Damas solidified his expression and stepped back.

[Time remaining until the duel ends.]

30, 29, 28…]

If the time ended then it would be a draw.

‘That can’t happen.’

Kang-jun decided to use a skill.

‘Heavenly Cut!’

As the flash headed towards him, Damas hurriedly crossed his two swords to block it.

Kakakakak! Seokeok!

However, the power of the flash wasn’t something he could prevent. The crossed swords were pushed down and he was sliced from head to crotch.

“Kuuack!”

Damas stared at Kang-jun with disbelief before disappearing.

[You have won the duel.]

[Two victory points have been obtained.]

[Your condition will be restored.]

[The next duel will shortly begin.]

Since then, Kang-jun was on a winning streak.

He won 38 times. He had 76 victory points and only 12 duels remained.

Among the sovereigns, Damas who he had met in the third round was the strongest. The ones after that didn’t have any strength.

[A duel against Agnus, the 66th Army’s total sovereign, will begin in 10 seconds.]

His 39th opponent was Agnus.

She was a female magician wearing white robes.

Kang-jun used a sword while Agnus cast magic.

Hwaruru! Hwaruruk!

She used an absurd spell from the beginning. She called a wall of flames named Firewall and pushed it towards him.

Hwaruru!

The wall of blazing flames approached. In order to not get burned by the flames, he would need to flee. However, that would mean leaving the duel area and that he would be automatically defeated.

“Hohoho! If you knew I was a magician, you shouldn’t have given me a chance to use my skill.”

Agnus was convinced of her victory and laughed. It seemed like she had won a lot through this method.

It was certainly powerful. It would be quite effective.

However, that was useless against someone with a very strong magic defense.

Kang-jun penetrated through the wall of flames and wielded his sword.

Seokeok!

Agnus’ body was cut diagonally.

[You have won the duel.]

[Two victory points have been obtained.]

After Agnus, many talents continued to emerge in front of Kang-jun.

It probably wasn’t a coincidence. Those who were proficient were being assigned to a strong opponent. Maybe this meant that the commanders were watching the duel.

Kang-jun’s winning streak continued.

49 wins. He had 98 victory points.

Now, there was only one person left.

[A duel against Andras, the 13th Army’s total sovereign, will begin in 10 seconds.]

Blue armour. A brilliantly shining sword. A shield with a blue dragon pattern.

The equipment wasn’t far behind Kang-jun’s.

‘He is strong.’

Kang-jun was always relaxed but now, his expression was stiff.

Until now, he had been able to win even if he had fought roughly.

However, he felt like Andras was on a different dimension from them. It was the first time he was dealing with a sovereign with power.

Suuk.

“Lucan. I’ve heard rumours but the same thing won’t happen to me.”

The eyes gleaming through the helmet were intense.

Kang-jun ran forward and used a skill without hesitation.

‘Heavenly Cut!’

Flash!

There was no need to talk if he met a strong opponent. It was best to get a victory through sheer force from the beginning.

Kakakaang!

Surprisingly, Andras received Kang-jun’s skill with his shield.

“Ugh!”

Andras moaned as he was pushed back, but he was the first sovereign to block Kang-jun’s Heavenly Cut.
