Chapter 19
The distance to the base camp was about half a day on foot, but it was less than a few hours on horseback.
Whether understanding the owner’s wishes or not, he guided the boy wielding a sword and the timid swindler to the base camp with his best efforts.
“Heya! orbit Heya!”
Zayar’s horse did not lose its way even though he was running in the dark and on an uneven mountain path.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
The sight of that place, reflected under the moonlight, was shrouded in dense fog, making it impossible to see even a step ahead.
“What’s that over there?”
And finally they arrived at the bottom of the hill close to the base camp.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
“······.”
Vlad dismounted from the horse and looked down at the foggy area.
“I told you! afford It was exactly like this that day!”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
The fog was so thick that only vague outlines could be seen, and it was impossible to discern what was happening inside.
Vlad raised his finger to stop Gott and listened carefully.
“Let’s run away now! agent You surely don’t intend to go in there, right?”
“Quiet.”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
‘Screams.’
Vlad heard the screams of mercenaries amidst the chaotic sounds of weapons and meaningless shouts.
The fog was so thick that one couldn’t see an inch ahead, but Vlad was able to understand the situation through sound.
Vlad’s keen hearing to perceive his surroundings had already been acknowledged by Jorge.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
[Don’t panic. meadow Before moving, decide which direction to go in.]
The knight resembling blue moonlight said so.
“You have to confirm where you are standing right now before rashly moving.”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
“Gott, you go.”
The voice inside his head said the same thing.
Where he currently was, what he could do, and what he needed to do next.
Vlad quietly took a deep breath and pondered.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
“Huh?”
Only those who know the right direction can achieve their goals.
Everything in life is a matter of direction.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
And Vlad found his purpose.
“······.”
“Captain? apron You want to go down?”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
“······Huh?”
Vlad made a promise.
“It may not mean much, but anyway, I feel sorry for this incident.”
There was someone singing softly somewhere in the fog. autumn It didn’t seem to stop, but it was so fragile that it sounded like it might collapse at any time.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
The boy walked into the fog that could not even be illuminated by moonlight. All translations belong to Indra Translations. You can find us online at indratranslations.com
The boy may not have known it, but the step he took that night was the most brilliant step he had ever taken in his life.
Keep the contract and be faithful.
I have a job to do, so I will offer my faith instead of loyalty.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
[Go.]
“I’m going.”
The contract made with Josef that night remained as a shining star in Vlad’s heart.
Because it was an act of pursuing something honorable.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
※※※※
“It seems that barely managing the mercenaries has become meaningless.”
Vlad walked towards the flickering star with his blue eyes shining.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
Josef was able to understand the situation perfectly despite Andrea’s difficult explanation.
It was a hymn.
“In the end, there’s no way to deal with it unless it’s Sir Zayar.”
Behind Andrea, who was kneeling and praying, the young deacon was shedding tears and singing.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
Although the voice was stained with fear, the brilliant melody calling to God mixed with Andrea’s holy power and was pushing away the thick fog.
A woman extending her pitch-black hand towards him was also there.
-My child! aluminum My child!
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
The best option would have been to run away, but the damn fog didn’t let go of them.
Josef lowered his head, looking down at his knights foaming at the mouth.
‘There seems to be no way.’

Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
Not qualified to bring down the curse onto their own world.
They fought with the outstanding blessings of Priest Andrea, but they were not qualified.
Therefore, the knights had no choice but to shield Josef until Priest Andrea found a solution.
No matter where they went, the fog forced them towards the woman.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
The mercenaries engulfed in fear had been disbanded, and the knights guarding him were now lying there, foaming at the mouth.
They would die soon.
The result was this.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
And he didn’t know if he would meet the same fate.
He couldn’t see any way to overcome this situation.
No matter how shrewd Josef was, creating something out of nothing was beyond his capabilities.
‘Is this the end?’
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
“Hold on, Lord Josef. canvas The sun of tomorrow will surely rise.”
Josef could understand.
The woman couldn’t approach due to Andrea’s holy power, but she continued to glare persistently at Josef.
“······Even though it seems too far away right now.”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
The woman, shedding black tears, was holding a wooden comb in her hand.
‘She’s targeting me after all.’
If he were to confront the emptiness and darkness within that woman, he might end up like the knights rolling on the ground.
No, it might be even worse.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
‘Who are you?’
She held the comb as if it were extremely precious, and it was the same one Josef had used before.
This was a curse.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
Now, there were no knights to protect Josef, and the pitiful voice of the young deacon was gradually fading away.
However, there was no one here to answer Josef’s question.
A relentless curse aimed at him.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
The moment the hymn of the young deacon ended, death would rush in.
Waiting for tomorrow’s sun felt too burdensome on this night.
Josef, guessing the coming outcome, closed his eyes.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
Josef opened his eyes with a sad expression, strengthening his heart to face whatever awaits ahead of him.
“······.”
No matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t find a way to break through, so Josef bit his lip.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
-Kyaaaah!
“Hmm?”
In that moment, he saw a glimmer of light.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
“You are…”
The light originated from behind the woman, who was shedding black tears.
A ray of sword, splitting the woman’s body in half, approached him.
At the end of that sword path, there was a blonde boy shining even without moonlight.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
A white lightning, starting from the tip of the unadorned sword, cleaved through the fog, illuminating the night sky.
[Hyaaaah!]
It was Vlad, with his right eye closed.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
“Then what should I do?”

[That thing is moving by a curse. orbit You can’t cut it with an ordinary sword.]
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
The voice guessed the identity of the woman glaring at Josef through the fog.
[Can you use aura right now?]
“Are you kidding me?”

“What about Priest Andrea?”
[Only a magician who defies the rules of the world, an exorcist who wields the will of God, or a knight with its own world can break what was created by the curse.]
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
“Shit.”
Vlad, who was watching for an opportunity behind the tent out of sight of the woman, became a little angry when the voice said that there was no way.
[He is faithful but not an exorcist. echo An ordinary Heretic Inquisitor would be more helpful in the current situation.]
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
“So, what now?”
[….Well, it’s not like there’s no solution at all.]
He didn’t come all this way for this.
He came here with determined resolve, to save Josef, but now he couldn’t even swing his sword.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
[I’ll borrow your body for a moment.]
“What is it?”
In response to Vlad’s question, the voice answered with an uncertain tone.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
The voice occasionally borrowed Vlad’s body as part of training.
“Will that work?”
However, borrowing the body for a moment to convey sensations and using the body to swing a sword containing aura were entirely different matters.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
“Borrow my body to use aura? crystal Even if it succeeds, I might not be able to move for a while.”
The voice was aware that it was a being that could use aura, but whether it could be embodied in Vlad’s body was another matter.
[It’s your body, so you decide. alert Honestly, I don’t recommend it.]
It only stated that if there was a way, this was the only one.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
[That’s also the path of the sword.]
Vlad began to ponder for a moment.
“If you can’t kill it, then I die.”
There was only one chance.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
If he failed, everything would be over.
“Let’s do it.”
Was there a reason to be prepared for that?
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
“The opportunity that Josef gives me may be a once in a lifetime opportunity. orbit And.”
Vlad was determined.
Vlad firmly fastened the straps of his leather armor.
[Are you sure about this?]
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
No more stepping back.
“If I run away from here, I might become the back alley Vlad again.”
Vlad feared something more than the mysterious woman in front of him and fear of possible death in case of failure.

He did not want to face the end of his life as someone who was nothing.
The boy did not have the qualifications to answer any of those questions. Read original high-quality translation at indratranslations.com.
What was he born for, and for what purpose would he live?
“I’m most afraid of being nothing.”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
Gritting his teeth, Vlad raised his head one last time and looked at the sky.
[I respect your choice.]
It was obscured by fog, but there should have been the moon.
“Let’s go.”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
“Got it.”
[Right in front.]
The blue moon that he must shatter someday.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
The key to a one-hit kill is its unexpectedness.
‘She didn’t see me.’
Vlad raised the sword he had bought with the girl’s tears and took a deep breath.
Unexpectedness comes from movements that go beyond prediction and shatter expectations.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
Even if she had noticed, she would have anticipated the strike he was about to deliver.
‘Heup!’
The woman with black tears didn’t notice Vlad.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
Vlad’s movements, breaking through without the slightest hesitation, were like arrows fired from a bow.

Vlad cut through the fog and dashed out.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
It was an angle that a living being could not make.
At that moment, the woman’s neck strangely bent when she heard the sound of Vlad’s footsteps.
-My baby?
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
The woman’s eyes, momentarily meeting Vlad’s, were so deep and dark that he couldn’t breathe, as if he was submerged in water.
“Argh!”
However,
[Now!]
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
In order to fulfill the contract he made with the one he entrusted with his faith, the boy did his best to close his right eye.
[Ugh!]
“Argh!”
And from now on, it was the world of an unknown person.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
※※※※ – Part 2
The white world cleaved through the black world.
A bolt of lightning, escaping from his world, cut through the black tears flowing from the woman’s eyes.
His world was filled with storms, lightning, and a tempest so immense that it seemed capable of swallowing the entire world.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
Amidst the raging lightning, he cut through the woman shedding tears.
Josef truly thought so.
“Vlad!”
It was just a flash of light, but it illuminated everything in the world.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
Vlad collapsed and rolled on the ground.
“Gah!”
Although he had prepared for it, the pain that came was easily beyond Vlad’s expectations.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
“Damn it!”
Vlad had to endure tremendous pain after using tha aura.
Vlad writhed in belated agony.
“Gah… Gah…”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
“Lord Josef!”
Josef noticed that Vlad was in no condition to move his body right now.
The recent flash was undoubtedly a trace of aura, and although he didn’t know how Vlad did it, it was clear that he had paid a high price.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
She continued to crawl on the ground, with an empty gaze.
-Baby, baby!
“Don’t stop the hymn!”
The cursed woman was split in half, but she did not stop.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
Josef took the risk and ran towards Vlad, who was groaning.
“Gah!”
“Close your eyes! zenith Don’t look at that woman!”
And the direction she was crawling and staring at was where Vlad was. This novel translation is officially hosted on indratranslations.com.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
“Grab me!”
The flash that Vlad had just shown was too precious to be abandoned now.
It was worth it.
It was a brilliant possibility that couldn’t be left to perish in the face of cold death.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
“Damn it!”
“Gah!”
He felt the chill coming from the woman right behind him, but Josef did not stop.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
Josef was unable to lift Vlad due to his weakened strength, but he had to somehow drag him to the range of the Holy power.
For a moment, the woman’s pitch-black hand grazed his ankle, but Josef did not let go of the hand that was holding Vlad despite the burning pain.
“Gah!”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
“Gah! album Damn it!”
Vordan, who was stamping his feet when he saw Josef suddenly jump out, quickly grabbed them and pulled them inside.
“Lord Josef!”

“Cough, cough!”
The two young men, drenched in sweat, tumbled on the floor.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
The woman, who had missed them, began to wail intensely, as if a mother losing a child.
-Aaaaaah!
-Where are you! aspect Where are you!
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
-My child, please, please, please.
Maybe there was a reason not to do that.
Even though her body was split in half, being an undead seemed to make her reluctant to let go of her existence easily.
-It hurts. academy My child. august Please find him. accent Please.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
“Sniff. aspect Huuuee.”
Vlad was crying sadly while listening to the woman’s voice.
He shed tears like a child of only six years old.
Surprised by the sobbing sound next to him, Josef looked at Vlad rolling next to him.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
“Vlad! agent Pull yourself together!”
“Pre, priest.”
‘Is he got affected!’
Josef was able to sense Vlad’s condition due to his unusual behavior.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
Then, he knelt down in front of him with a shaky body.
“Bl, bless my sword. alien I need to release that woman from her misery.”
Perhaps in a state of confusion, Vlad shook off Josef’s support and approached Andrea with a trembling body. Indra Translations protects the hard work of translators and authors.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
Although her complexion became paler, he agreed because the boy’s eyes remained unwavering.
Priest Andrea also noticed Vlad’s condition, but nodded and said that he would do so.
“….. airport All right.”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
He placed his hand on the blade of the sword.
Priest Andrea stopped praying and looked at Vlad’s sword.
“Give me the sword.”
A plain sword.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
“Thank you.”
“I have blessed your sword with my blessing.”
A silent night.
The blood of the faithful priest ran down the unadorned sword.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
Only the laborious footsteps of the boy echoed in this place.
-Please find······.
The hymn of the young deacon and the sorrowful cries of weeping women died down.
“I’m sorry.”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
There were terrible memories inside.
It was only for a moment during the rush, but Vlad looked into the woman’s empty eyes.
Women trapped in a dark prison.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
-My child, my child.
And the mother of the last remaining child cried and shouted while holding onto the cold bars.
The young and tender children were dying one by one.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
Vlad kneels before the weeping woman.
She watched her child slowly dying on the cold floor outside the bars.
“Haah······Huu······.”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
He raised his sword toward the mother searching for her child.
His body trembled in pain and his muscles were tangled, but he had to do it.
“May you rest in peace.”
In this moment, he was the one who understood her suffering more than anyone else.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
The woman shed her last tears as she saw the sword approaching her.
-Where are you?
Swoosh-
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 19 by Indra Translations.
Her flowing tears soaked the cold ground and made a puddle there.
Vlad’s sword pierced through the weeping woman’s head.
