The Sword God of Shili Slope in the Magical World

As soon as Su De turned his head, he saw a tall young man wearing a black mask, with brown hair, carrying two swords on his back. He exuded a strong aura of menace, clearly having killed many demons, and emanated a powerful sense of oppression.

Most importantly, he was wearing a black obsidian diamond bracelet.

This made the adventurers passing by not daring to even breathe.

Obsidian is a symbol of Black Diamond adventurers.

This indicates that they have independently completed numerous A-level commissions and may have even participated in S-level commissions.

"It's the infamous Shadow Mercenary Group."

"Could he be Nightmare Blade, one of the Seven Shadows?"

Many people were discussing it cautiously.

Some extremely powerful and renowned adventurers will unite to form mercenary groups to expand their fame, thus bypassing the Adventurers' Guild and directly accepting some high-difficulty commissions.

The Shadow Mercenary Group is one of the best among them.

Seven adventurers of Black Diamond rank or higher gathered together, calling themselves the Seven Shadows, and spread across various kingdoms. Their fame was so great that everyone knew them.

The person in front of me should be Nightmare Blade, one of the Seven Shadows.

The Black Diamond-level adventurer, who is usually elusive, has surprisingly appeared at the Adventurers' Guild in the royal capital today.

"Why would a Black Diamond-level adventurer like you compete with a newbie for a quest?" Fei Xue's expression was hostile, and she released a powerful aura of swordsmanship.

It collided with the opponent's malevolent energy.

It seemed as if a great battle was about to break out.

As the leader of the group, she naturally had her own bottom line and authority.

"I'm sorry, I have no obligation to inform you, even if this person is the leader of the Radiant Knights," Nightmare Blade said coldly.

His gaze slid down slightly, landing on Su De behind Fei Xue.

Clearly, only Fei Xue posed a threat; the man in front of them looked quite ordinary and had little fighting ability.

Even knowing Fei Xue's identity, he was not afraid at all.

This is the confidence that comes with being a Black Diamond-level adventurer.

Seeing the two of them locked in a fierce battle, Su De thought to himself.

"Could there be something special about this mission?"

A quest that a Black Diamond-level adventurer would fight over must be rather strange.

As the saying goes, curiosity killed the cat.

He felt it was best to avoid some trouble.

A strong, large hand patted Fei Xue on the shoulder, making her slightly startled.

A tall figure stood in front of her.

"We'll give this task to you; we're giving it up."

Su De turned to look at Fei Xue and winked in cahoots.

Fei Xue understood immediately, so she suppressed her aura and stood quietly beside her teacher.

She always felt that she didn't care about her own reputation and could tolerate it.

But she couldn't not stand up for the teacher's sake.

She knew very well that Mr. Su De was not someone who liked to cause trouble.

However, if a teacher's dignity is insulted, she will definitely make the other party pay.

Seeing Fei Xue retreat, Nightmare Blade sneered and said meaningfully, "I've long heard that the commander of the Radiant Sun Knights is young but highly skilled, the number one sword genius in the capital. I thought I would be able to witness his prowess, but what a pity."

"Could it be... that you got your position as commander through some other means?"

Upon hearing this, Fei Xue was filled with rage.

She has endured countless hardships and sweat to get to where she is today.

Beneath the crown are countless challengers.

Honor and pride are her medals.

And now, this honor has been slandered by this guy!

How could she possibly tolerate it?

"Incomprehensible!"

She intended to teach this guy a lesson, but unexpectedly, Sude took a step forward.

"teacher......"

Su De smiled faintly: "Let me do it."

Feixue nodded, looking bewildered.

In a certain moment, time seemed to pull her back to more than a decade ago.

Because when they were young, their teachers always stood up for them.

Once, the teacher arranged for a sword-fighting match between his students at a sword-fighting hall in a nearby town.

The disciples of the town's sword-fighting academy repeatedly resorted to underhanded tricks and petty cunning, yet they still lost to the academy.

So some disciples seized the opportunity to retaliate and ambushed them that night.

At the critical moment, the teacher arrived and prevented the situation from escalating.

The teacher gave those disciples with wicked intentions a severe scolding and demanded compensation from the headmaster.

I haven't felt this way in a long time.

In all these years since I came to the capital, I've shouldered everything on my own and endured all the hardships alone.

Therefore, the time she spent learning swordsmanship at the sword-making school was her most precious memory.

Then the unremarkable man stepped forward.

Nightmare Blade became extremely vigilant.

Feixue just listened to this man so much.

This suggests that this man may not be as simple as he appears.

However, the absence of battle aura within his body indicates that he has not been promoted to a higher-level profession and is merely an ordinary swordsman.

"I can give you the task, but you must apologize to my apprentice, immediately," Su De said calmly.

"Why should I?" Nightmare Blade frowned.

"Based on...this."

Sude slowly placed his hand on the hilt of the sword.

As soon as the sword was drawn an inch, a terrifying shockwave swept through the entire Adventurers' Guild hall!

It is something that makes people turn pale at the mere mention of it.

Nightmare Blade's pupils contracted slightly as he sensed danger and placed his hand on the black blade behind him.

The person in front of him had already pointed the sword tip at his throat.

No, when did he...?

When did he draw his sword?

With his skill level, he couldn't even see the opponent's attack!

If this were a battlefield, he would already be dead.

This is enough to show that Su De's slash had reached a level beyond the ordinary.

Sude understood the source of his strength: it was the description of his slashing attacks, which allowed him to unleash additional damage based on his swordsmanship.

Because his swordsmanship level is 999, his power is naturally astonishing.

The seemingly simple basic attack can unleash incredibly terrifying power.

Clearly, Nightmare Blade was aware that he had underestimated the man's strength.

He is definitely a level above Captain Fei Xue.

Facing such a being, kneeling is not shameful at all; Nightmare Blade's brown hair drooped slightly.

"I apologize, senior. I am ashamed of my words and actions just now. I should not have insulted Captain Fei Xue. She is the most brilliant new star of swordsmanship in the Kingdom of Avalon. I wonder what kind of compensation you need, senior?"

Sude was quite surprised by how quickly the other party yielded.

He slowly sheathed his sword and said indifferently, "At least a hundred gold grapes are needed. In addition, I need to know your reasons for wanting to take this mission and your background."

There's definitely something wrong with this mission. The fact that it's taken seriously by a Black Diamond-level adventurer means it's not easy to complete and there might be danger involved.

The brown-haired man took out a bag of gold and said hesitantly, "I can't reveal too much, but I can say that this mission is related to the church and involves ordinary monsters."

Upon hearing this, Su De nodded slightly.

"I'm giving you this task, and I'll keep my word."

It's best not to get involved in such tasks.

Anyway, more advanced tasks will come out after a while, so there's no rush.

"Feixue, let's go."

"Okay, teacher."

Feixue obediently followed.

At this moment, my heart is filled with warmth.

......

After leaving the Adventurers' Guild.

Nightmare Blade arrived at a bustling underground tavern.

At the innermost table sat a one-eyed woman with long, wavy red hair. She wore a revealing leather jacket that exposed her flat, muscular stomach and beautifully curved hips. Most eye-catching of all were her exaggerated breasts, which seemed about to burst out.

She was very tall, a full 1.9 meters, taller than many men.

Even with one eye missing, a woman's beauty cannot be concealed.

A cool and aloof aura emanates from her, her extremely sassy style giving off a sense of distance that would make any man hesitate to approach.

However, Nightmare Blade didn't even dare to raise his head.

Because the person in front of them is their leader.

Shadow, the leader of the mercenary group and the head of the Seven Shadows.

Platinum-level adventurer, Bereya.
