Dimensional Sovereign Chapter 80:
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 .
