The Reincarnated Assassin Is a Genius Swordsman

Chapter 1392 [Aaaaaaaah!] An Angel with crimson hair like melted fragments of the sun places her hand on her chest and parts her pink lips. Her voice, more beautiful than her lovely face, flowed along the melody to become a heavenly song that made hearts flutter warmly. Hwaaaaaaa! Child-like Angels created a performance with small harps, trumpets, and drums that brought peace just by listening, achieving perfect harmony with the song sung by the crimson-haired Angel. "It's the goddess's song!" "Lady Sandalphon is conveying the word of God through her song!" "Destroy the humans according to heaven's command!" "It's time to purify the corrupted earth!" The Angels seemed to gain strength from Sandalphon's song and performance, burning with intensified Divine power as they engaged in battle. That song seemed to convey courage and strength to them. However, the humans' reaction was completely opposite. "Aaaaaaaagh!" "Th-that song, what is it..." "My ears. No, my chest. My heart hurts!" "S-save me..." "Please, that song..." The martial artists of the Five Kings Alliance seemed to feel mental shock just from hearing Sandalphon's song and the Angels' performance, dropping their weapons and clutching their heads. Strangely, those with stronger martial prowess seemed to be more affected than the weaker ones, finding it difficult even to move. [Aaaaaaaaah!] Sandalphon and the Angels holding instruments seemed to gain even greater power from the reactions of their delighted kindred and the suffering humans, singing with even stronger Divine power. "Now's the time!" "Kill all the humans!" "As long as Lord Sandalphon is here, those bugs can't move!" "Follow the song of victory!" The Angels, empowered by Sandalphon's song, began massacring the humans who had stiffened like statues. As if certain of their victory, they charged in disregarding formation and thrust spears burning with Divine power. "Uaaaaagh!" "I-I want to die! Kill me!" Even without being attacked by the Angels, the humans of the Five Kings Alliance who were affected by Sandalphon's song and the performance of the Angels following her stabbed their ears with swords or smashed their own heads, dying from self-harm. It truly seemed like God's will to destroy humanity was contained in her song. "Wh-what is that..." "Dying just from hearing a song, that doesn't make sense!" "Re-retreat! There's no answer to that!" "Let's fall back for now, until the Five Kings' leaders..." It was when the martial artists of the Five Kings Alliance were trying to retreat in horror. [Aaaaaaah!] Unlike Sandalphon's song, a song with freshness and purity emanated from the center of the Five Kings Alliance. Unlike the Angels, though there wasn't a single accompanying instrument, that song rode on the battlefield's drum sounds and spread across the entire Cameloon Plain. Gooooooo! The people who had been retreating in fear of the Angels' song parted, and from between them, a beautiful woman approached with elegant steps like a flower blooming with morning dew. With deeper rose-colored hair tied in twin braids similar to Sandalphon's but drawing a gentle smile, her appearance was the very embodiment of perfect beauty. [Aaaaaaaaaah!] The girl who had possessed the greatest talent for song and music since childhood had perfectly blossomed that talent, creating a musical flower bud that could stand against even a higher Angel's song. "Maintain formation so Yua's song can spread more widely." Burren changed the formation's shape to protect Yua while allowing her voice to spread widely. When Light Wind Palace assisted Yua, her song gained the power to ride the wind and began pushing back the higher Angel Sandalphon's song. "My-my head doesn't hurt anymore." "That song saved us!" "A g-goddess! She's a real goddess!" "It's time to get revenge on those damn Angels!" The martial artists of the Five Kings Alliance seemed enraged at being deceived by Sandalphon's tricks and charged at the Angels with gritted teeth. [Aaaaaaaaaaah!] The martial artists of the Five Kings Alliance, who received vitality and fighting spirit through Yua's song, showed overwhelming prowess against the Angels backed by the higher Angel Sandalphon's song. "Light Wind Palace advance." Burren also didn't miss the opportunity while the Angels hesitated and moved Light Wind Palace. The Light Wind Swordsmen, after protecting Yua, leaped into the battlefield and began massacring the Angels who had broken formation and approached. "What?" The higher Angel Sandalphon frowned as she looked at Yua, who possessed power that could stand against her own song. "A mere bug!" She flashed malicious eyes on a face that seemed to embody the very word "purity." "Change the melody. Play the Death Song." Sandalphon gave instructions to the Angels behind her to change the melody. "B-but..." "If we sing that, our own kind will die too!" "It-it's too dangerous..." The Angels holding instruments swallowed dry saliva as they looked at Sandalphon's angry eyes. "It doesn't matter. The humans will die first before that happens." Sandalphon exhaled heavily, saying there would be no problem if she just killed the human who was singing. "Do it quickly." She emanated killing intent as if she would kill the Angels first if they didn't listen. "We-we understand." The Angels gasped and picked up their instruments again. The instruments they held sparkled with white light and released a mysterious yet gloomy rhythm. [Aaaaaaaaaah!] Sandalphon began singing a new song following the Angels' performance. Unlike before, her song contained no beauty or elegance. Rather than being called a song, it was like a demon's scream refined with precision. The hot air of the battlefield grew cold, and the melody flowing through their eardrums was sharp like a blade made of ice. "Ahhh..." "Huhhhh..." "It's me! It's all my fault." "I should die..." The martial artists of the Five Kings Alliance who had been driving back the Angels immediately began dying by stabbing swords into their own stomachs upon hearing Sandalphon's Death Song. It wasn't a Death Song, but more like a requiem they imposed upon themselves. However, the effect wasn't limited to humans alone. "Th-this is the Death Song, isn't it?" "Run away! If you hear that, you'll definitely die!" "Lord Sandalphon! Why suddenly!" The Angels also seemed unable to overcome the effects created by Sandalphon's Death Song, piercing their own throats with spears burning with Divine power. "Uhhh..." Yua also seemed unable to avoid Sandalphon's influence, spitting black dead blood from her mouth past her lips. Thanks to her continuing to sing, Light Wind Palace and those behind them escaped the Death Song's influence, but it didn't seem like she could hold out much longer. "This is a true Angel's song." The higher Angel Sandalphon looked down at Yua with a sneer as if she had expected this. "A bug should cry like a bug and die." She snorted and raised her voice singing the Death Song. [Aaaaaaaaaaaaah!] Yua also raised her voice as if she wouldn't lose, but unable to overcome the higher Angel's sincerity, she trembled all over and gasped for breath. "Mmm..." Burren chewed his lips as he watched Yua breaking into cold sweat. "We retreat." It was when he was about to give up on dealing with Sandalphon and order a retreat. "No!" Julius firmly shook his head. (E/N: OMG Julius! You are here!) "Please believe in Yua!" Having spent his childhood with Yua, he lowered his eyebrows saying it wasn't time to give up yet. "She hasn't given up yet!" Julius clenched his fist, telling him to look at Yua's eyes. "..." Burren looked at Yua and Julius who had the same expression and placed his hand on his sword sheath. "Fine. But I can't wait long." As the commander of Light Wind Palace, he nodded saying he couldn't give much time. "Yua! Stay strong!" "We're counting on you alone!" "If it's Light Wind Palace, we should be able to beat that level of witch!" "The Palace Master must be listening to your song too!" The Light Wind Palace Swordsmen also didn't move as if nails were driven into their feet, showing they trusted Yua like the mascot of the Fifth Training Ground. It seemed like they wouldn't have left this place even if Burren had refused. [Aaaaaaaaaah!] Yua seemed to gain strength from the faith of Burren, Julius, and her Light Wind Palace comrades, accomplishing the feat of momentarily pushing back Sandalphon's Death Song with a sweet yet heart-stirring voice. "How dare..." Sandalphon ground her teeth as if she was more irritated by Yua's appearance of struggling but enduring. "I'll show you that human trust is nothing but trash!" She sang the Death Song by burning her soul and Divine power, saying she would make everyone except Yua run away. [Uuuuuuuuuuuung!] As the eerie melody created by the Death Song spread higher and wider, it wasn't the humans Yua was protecting, but the Angels who died first. "Huhhhh..." Yua also seemed unable to endure any longer, spitting blood clots from her mouth and bending her waist. However, even in the midst of this, she didn't stop singing. "You struggled quite a bit, but now it's over." It was the moment when Sandalphon was about to sing the chorus of the Death Song with a sneer. Chwaaaaaak! A refreshing cutting sound that seemed to carve her eerie song out of this world echoed across the battlefield. [Ahhh... huh?] Sandalphon's endlessly continuing Death Song stopped, and a red line was drawn across her neck. "Wh-what is..." Her beautiful face fell with bewilderment, and her body, having lost its head, also crashed to the ground and twisted grotesquely. "Phew." Above the corpse of the Angel who had sentenced humans and Angels to death, an old Swordsman with a benevolent face descended and exhaled a short breath. "You really worked hard." From the previous generation to the present. The Dark Sword of Zieghart who uniquely held the eerie yet noble epithet of Killing King. Roenn let out a hearty laugh and waved his hand to Yua. "Thanks to Lady Yua holding out, an opportunity to kill this monster was created." Roenn gently bowed his head, saying he was able to kill the higher Angel thanks to Yua. "Hah..." Yua seemed to have difficulty even speaking, bowing her head and forcing out a smile with great effort. "It-it's thanks to what Grandfather taught me." She raised her hand, saying she was able to fight against the Angel thanks to learning music from Roenn. "It seems there's nothing left for me to teach you now." Roenn approached Yua and supported her. "Rather, it seems I should be the one learning." He slightly reddened his eyes as if moved by this moment when the young girl who had followed holding Raon's hand was now fighting alongside him. "You worked hard." Burren bowed his head to Roenn. "It would have been good if you had told me in advance too." He clicked his tongue regretfully. "I apologize." Roenn bowed his head to Burren in return. "However, isn't there a saying that to deceive the enemy, you must first deceive your allies?" He lowered his eyes saying it couldn't be helped since he didn't know what abilities the enemy possessed. "That's true." Burren nodded while catching his breath. "Now that we've roughly finished off the dangerous ones with this Angel..." He swallowed dry saliva as he looked at Archangel Ramiel dropping countless lightning bolts and Sloth, the Monarch of Sloth, erasing all that lightning. "We'll have to wait for the battle between the monsters and gods to end."
