I Became a Level -99 Vicious Lord

Swordsmanship.

A skill that uses mana and mental power to move the sword freely and attack enemies from a distance.

It is such a rare skill that even most hero units are not able to use it, making swordsmanship one of the highest-level skills.

Would it be fair to say that this is the skill that melee characters who use swords as their main weapon dream of?

It completely overcomes the limitations of melee characters with short attack ranges.

‘Is this really swordsmanship…?’

While Otto was surprised, the mace freely moved as if it were a living creature and struck the goat head of the chimera.

Not only Otto, but Camille was surprised.

“Swordsmanship?!”

“Did our lord really use swordsmanship?”

“I never thought I would see such a skill in my lifetime…”

The knights and soldiers who were watching were also surprised.

Their lord used swordsmanship!

Why? Does it remind anyone of a song about a dictator of a northern kingdom using a decree of exile?

“Is this really swordsmanship?” Otto asked Kairos in surprise.

Kairos smiled mockingly. [So, you recognize swordsmanship. You do have an eye for talent.]

“What do you mean?”

[Did you think I became the emperor who ruled a third of the continent just by bluffing? The reason I was able to conquer the empire with just one mace was because I had formidable power.]

Kairos’ voice was filled with pride in himself.

Otto also admitted that if someone had the power to use swordsmanship, they would be considered a strong person on the continent even today.

[Use my strength] said Kairos.

“Okay.”

Otto swiftly caught the returning mace with his hand. Then he charged towards the Chimera.

“Krrrrrrrrrrrrrr!”

“Kyaaaaaaaak!”

“Meeeeeeee!”

The Chimera was very angry.

Judging by the blood dripping from the goat’s head, it had clearly taken a serious blow.

[Start with the wings.]

The Chimera was a monster with a strategy for taking it down.

The first step was to destroy its wings so that it could no longer fly.

Roar rrrr!

The Chimera swung its sharp-clawed foreleg at Otto as it charged.

Drrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

Otto easily dodged the attack by rolling his body.

Thanks to the power lent to him by Kairos, he was capable of movements that he wouldn’t have dreamt of before.

‘The wings!’

Otto swung his mace towards Chimera’s vulnerable spot.

Since his weapon was a mace, he couldn’t cut the wings, so he aimed to crush the wing bones completely.

Kwaang!!!

With a sound like an explosion, the Chimera’s right shoulder collapsed as Otto’s mace successfully shattered the shoulder bone that connected to the wing.

Next up? The goat.

Otto’s next target was the goat’s head, among the Chimera’s three heads.

Each of the Chimera’s three heads had different abilities.

The lion’s head in the center emitted a terrifying flame. The wyvern’s head on the right spewed toxic gas, and the goat’s head on the left fired a petrifying ray that turned enemies to stone.

Like right now.

Zzzzzzt!

A gray beam shot out from the goat’s eyes, aimed at Otto.

Otto dodged the petrification beam by bending his waist like a bow.

Ziiiiiiiiing!!!

“Aaahhh!”

Otto jumped around to avoid the petrification beam.

[You idiot stop rolling around!]

Kairos yelled at Otto.

[Climb on its back!]

“Huh?”

[If you climb on its back, you won’t get hit by its attacks, right?]

“Right!”

Following Kairos’ advice, Otto jumped onto the back of the chimera.

And then?

“Die, you b**tard!”

Otto swung his club wildly and hit the goat’s head.

‘Meeeh! Meeehhh!’

The goat’s head screamed in pain.

“Krrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!”

“Kyaaaaaaah!”

The lion’s head and the wyvern’s head also screamed in agony.

Otto held onto the chimera’s skin tightly with his left hand and continued to attack the goat’s head with his club in his right hand.

As a result.

Crunch!

The goat’s head broke and its brain spilled out.

“Now it’s the wyvern’s turn.”

Otto continued to attack the wyvern’s head with all his might.

‘Kyaaaaah!’

The wyvern’s head spewed poisonous gas, but it didn’t reach Otto on its back.

Crunch!

Finally, the wyvern’s head was also partially smashed like the goat’s head.

‘Kreooooooooooooooh!’

With only one head left, the chimera rolled around on the ground.

Otto had to get off the chimera’s back, or he might get crushed by its body if he kept riding on its back.

‘Krrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr…!!!’

The lion’s head growled at Otto.

[Don’t be afraid.]

Kairos advised Otto.

[When the beast breathes fire, that’s your chance.]

“How?”

[When the beast opens its mouth wide, throw the mace.]

“….!”

[Now’s the time!]

As the chimera’s lion head opened its mouth to breathe fire, Otto swung the mace with all his might.

Swisshhh!

Mace flew like a missile and hit the chimera’s throat just as it was about to breathe fire.

What happened next was surprising.

‘Kreaaaaah! Kreaaaaah!’

The chimera writhed in agony and suddenly burst into flames on its own.

At the moment the fire was about to spew out, the mace had plugged its throat, causing the flames to reverse!
