372. Country of Sakura, Cherin and the Seven Holy Swords [143]


    (I see.. so that’s what it is.)


    As I expected, Deal truly is the twisted man I believe him to be.


    (Anyway, I just have to break the core!)


    I undid the Dark Roar stance and immediately raised my sword into an overhead position.


    「Fifth Sword – World Judgement!」


    Within the span of a second, the strongest slash that tears the world asunder slashed the poison dragon together with Deal’s expectation.


    Venom Jaw was swallowed into the distortion of space. My field of view which was dyed purple was cleared up at once.


    「W-Why!?」


    With an astonished look, Deal fell into a slight panic.


    I did not miss that opportunity, and with one step, I closed the distance between us.


    「This is the end.」


    「Ka, ha!」


    The true black sword pierced deep into Deal’s chest.


    「Ah, guh… kaa…!」


    Deal choked on his own blood as it gushed out from the corners of his mouth. He clenched the black sword piercing his chest and glared at me.


    「B-Bro… Why didn’t you unleash the Dark Roar…?」


    「When I looked closely, I found an “unnatural sphere” inside Venom Jaw. I’m sure the moment it receives impact, it will scatter a deadly poison within. Am I right?」


    「……」


    I probably hit the mark, seeing as how Deal vexedly clenched his teeth.
