Reincarnation Of The Legendary Sword Saint

Rowan stood calmly, blue aura glowing around him, cloak fluttering in the wind, sword at the ready. Silent. Untouchable.

Kosan’s chest heaved. His confidence, his pride, shattered.

This, this was not a fight he could take lightly.

Kosan lunged forward again, moving at full speed, aiming to strike Rowan with another punch.

But the moment he closed in, he sensed it.

Danger.

Pure danger.

He leapt backward instantly, forcing distance between them.

Damn it.

Now that he looked closely, Rowan wasn’t even breathing hard.

There was no fear in him.

No hesitation.

No strain.

Just calm.

And that calmness alone was terrifying.

Kosan’s eyes narrowed.

I can’t get close. I can’t even move freely. Every step toward him feels like walking into death.

Maybe I didn’t strike hard enough earlier. Maybe I didn’t push enough power out.

This time, I will.

Kosan raised both hands.

Dark flame energy gathered rapidly, swirling like a storm.

Then he fired.

One blast.

Then another.

Then another.

The flames tore through the air, slamming toward Rowan nonstop.

BOOM!

BOOM!

BOOM!

Explosions erupted around Rowan’s body again and again.

Smoke and fire filled the forest.

Trees were shredded.

The ground split.

But Rowan kept walking forward.

Step by step.

Untouched.

Not even blocking.

Kosan’s eyes widened.

"Hey, are you not going to stop?!" Kosan shouted.

Rowan didn’t even slow down.

"It’s a waste of time," Rowan said coldly. "I’m not blocking it. My aura is blocking it."

Kosan froze.

Just his aura?

Before Kosan could react, Rowan vanished.

The air snapped.

And in the next instant, Rowan appeared right in front of him.

Kosan tried to jump back.

But his body froze.

Gravity crushed him in place.

He couldn’t move.

"What the hell?!" Kosan growled, trembling. "What did you just do?!"

Rowan stared at him.

Kosan’s breathing became uneven.

"Just how strong are you?" Kosan muttered. "And now that I remember, when I tried to describe you earlier, I couldn’t even speak."

His eyes narrowed.

"I’m sure that was you."

Rowan’s blue aura rolled violently around him, cloak fluttering.

"What did you expect?" Rowan said calmly.

"It doesn’t matter how strong you get. Like I told you earlier, the moment your core was repaired and you were restored, your best choice was to leave."

Rowan stepped closer.

"Even if you didn’t return to the Demon Realm, you should’ve left this city, gone somewhere I couldn’t sense you."

Rowan’s eyes sharpened.

"But you didn’t."

Kosan swallowed.

Rowan raised his fist.

"So now..."

Rowan’s voice dropped.

"You’re going to die."

Kosan’s instincts screamed.

He tried to jump backward.

But Rowan moved faster.

BOOM!

Rowan’s punch slammed into Kosan’s stomach.

Kosan’s entire body jerked.

His feet slid back.

But then, he smiled.

"Heh..."

He wiped blood off his mouth.

"It looks like the only thing helping you is your sword," Kosan said, grinning. "I just need to take that sword away from you."

He stared at Rowan.

"Your punches carry weight, I’ll admit that."

"But they can’t bring me real harm."

Rowan didn’t reply.

Kosan’s grin widened.

Then suddenly, his smile vanished.

His eyes widened in shock.

His body grew heavy.

Pain exploded inside him like something was crushing his organs.

"Ghk—!"

Dark blood spilled from his mouth.

His knees slammed into the ground.

His hands shook violently.

He tried to stand.

But his body refused.

He collapsed forward, still kneeling, trembling.

Blood ran down from his eyes.

Kosan stared at the ground, horrified.

"What, what is this?!"

Rowan walked closer, looking down at him.

"What’s wrong?" Rowan asked coldly. "You were talking so confidently a moment ago."

Kosan’s breathing became ragged.

Just from one punch...

This much damage?

His thoughts shattered.

Fear flooded his mind.

I’m going to die.

I have to run.

It doesn’t matter what happens. I have to escape.

Meanwhile, deep within the Demon Realm, the Demon Lord sat upon his throne, watching everything unfold.

Morvex.

Pure white eyes.

Dark hair like midnight.

A being born of both worlds, half demon, half fallen angel.

His presence alone made the air feel heavier, as if reality itself feared him.

He watched Kosan kneeling before Rowan.

Watched Kosan shaking.

Watched Rowan walking forward like death itself.

And Morvex smiled faintly.

"This human," Morvex murmured. "He’s strong."

His voice was calm.

But the room fell silent the moment he spoke.

"In fact," Morvex continued, eyes narrowing slightly, "he might be the strongest human alive."

A demon beside him stepped forward.

It was Izal, a Demon King, his body wrapped in dark armor, his aura sharp and overwhelming.

"Yes, my lord," Izal said respectfully. "He is outstanding, but he is still nothing compared to you."

Another demon, standing lower on the steps, bowed deeply.

It was Juzza, a lieutenant demon.

Morvex leaned back on his throne, resting his chin on his hand.

"I know," Morvex said. "But still..."

His gaze sharpened.

"Kosan is not useful."

The room stiffened.

No one dared speak.

Morvex’s white eyes flickered with cold amusement.

"I shared a portion of my power with him. That alone should’ve made him more than enough for this mission."

He paused, watching Kosan suffer through the vision.

"But I won’t allow him to die like this."

His tone turned darker.

"To die for nothing is a waste."

Morvex slowly lifted his hand.

"Hai," he called.

The air trembled.

From the shadows, a tall figure stepped forward.

Armor black as the abyss.

Aura so heavy it felt like the throne room itself was being crushed.

Hai.

The strongest Demon Knight.

He walked forward, clad in full golden armor, a massive horn rising between his ears. A huge sword hung at his waist as he approached, bowing deeply before the Demon Lord.

"I heard your call, my lord," he said.

"Go to the Human Realm," Morvex commanded. "Bring me that boy’s head. You can see him, bring it to me. I know it. Perhaps we can add it to my collection, every head I’ve taken displayed among the fallen."

"Yes, my lord. It will be done," the demon knight replied, bowing again.
