59. Legend of the Spirited Sword (7)
Hwiik!
swish…!
Rinfa’s greatsword waved like a wave and gently cut through the air. It seemed as if the dark pillars were moving as the aura wrapped around the greatsword.
left right down up. Every time the black greatsword moved, aura particles fluttered.
Although it is imbued with the dignity of a person who has attained the state, at first glance, it is no different from an ordinary sword dance. But with a little attention, I could tell.
That there are not one greatsword cutting through the air, but two.
Even Jin didn’t recognize him right away because he was obscured by the pouring black particles and he’d never seen anything like it before.
‘Every time Rinpa swings his sword, the same blade comes out from the opposite side of the trajectory as if reflected in a mirror
. The same goes for the top and bottom lines.
In the opposite direction of the greatsword’s trajectory, there was always the same greatsword. A greatsword identical to Rinfa’s, made of aura. The two swords kept interlocking as if the bookshelves were being covered.
‘Is this the real Spirited Sword Type 2? Until yesterday, he only showed me wielding a greatsword wrapped in aura.’
Sword dance was on the rise.
Beads of sweat formed on Rinfa’s forehead, and the greatsword left more and more traces, and Jin watched in awe.
I had never thought of being able to cut both sides at the same time with a single sword. What Rinfa showed was originally only possible for twin swordsmen.
thud…!
After finishing the sword dance, Rinpa dropped her greatsword on the floor. As Garmund and Boras applauded, Jin followed suit and praised them with his eyes.
It was well worth it.
“How is it?”
“It was great. I hadn’t shown it properly before.”
Did you want me to pay attention to you first?
I almost added it, but fortunately I was able to cover it up.
“Is that maxim… okay? Brother Linfa.”
Garmund and Boras couldn’t believe it even when they saw with their own eyes that Lynfa had broken the motto training.
“It’s okay, brothers. So no fuss.”
“I’ll have to tell the other brothers about this!”
“Right, then, before the successor leaves, Brother Linfa and the other brothers will be able to talk. When Temar was around, we couldn’t say a word…!”
The two fighting kings ran out of the training ground in a hurry. Left alone with Rinpa, Jin couldn’t help but smile awkwardly for a while.
“scissors.”
“yes?”
“It’s the name of the Spirited Sword Type 2 you saw, the successor.”
“That’s a fitting name. Because the blades made of spiritual energy interlock like scissors.”
“Can you follow me?”
“Isn’t it a simple technique that can be taken for granted? This sword is still a problem.”
Jin pointed to the spirit-breathing sword at his waist.
The Spirit Suck Sword was still absorbing Jin’s spirit energy.
“The Spirit Suck Sword is like a scabbard. Draw spirit energy from within the spirit-sucking sword, just like when you unleash it.”
“Yes, I have been aware of that lately. It’s a sword that not only absorbs spirit energy, but also tidies it up.”
Jin shrugged.
“By the way, why were you practicing proverbs?”
“No one listened.”
“What?”
“I thought of saying that I shouldn’t challenge the gods as a punishment for not stopping my brothers. It was more like punishment than training.”
Rinpa seemed to think that it was her own fault for the destruction of the Myung Dynasty. Jin vaguely felt that feeling, but he didn’t bother to say ‘it’s not your responsibility’.
That would not be what Rinfa wanted.
“Thanks to you, the punishment is over. Ridiculously easy. As for me, I can speak for the first time in twenty years, so I will tell you everything I know in detail.”
The moment Rinfa was about to explain the Spirit Sword Type 2, Garmund and Boras returned. Dozens of Myungwang clans also joined in hearing the news that Rinfa’s maxim had ended.
“I’m sure I’ll be able to tell you tomorrow, Gene Runcandel.”
“Brother Linfa!”
“Brother of the King of Death! You finally finished your maxim!”
The Myungwang family surrounded Rinpa and started throwing congratulations and all sorts of questions.
Some of them asked Jin for the whole story, but Jin only looked around. It was because the other members of the Myungwang clan didn’t seem to know why Rinpa was saying the maxim.
‘I thought he was just a unique and a little crazy person, but he seems to be the most delicate and delicate person among the Myungwang family.’
When Jin tried to sneak out of the training ground to get out of the way, Boras grabbed him.
“I will take your second achievement.”
“You haven’t done anything yet?”
“Didn’t you make the Linfa brothers open their mouths? Hehe, it means that I should be the first to taste this air.”
At the same time, seeing Boras swallowing air with his mouth open, he laughed. It was like watching a puppy running around to eat the falling snow.
It was a race that I didn’t even know. It’s to the point where you wonder if they’re really a group of mortals who challenged the gods for the first time 5,000 years ago.
* * *
Lynfa was a person with a knack for explanations, to the point where it would be a waste to say a maxim so far.
Thanks to that, Jin has a way to overcome the spirit-sucking sword and a way to open the second set of spirit swords. I was able to learn it in less than two weeks after she finished it.
Of course, it’s just learning how to do it, not mastery. However, if it was repeated training, it was literally a win, so mastery was only a matter of time.
Around the beginning of mid-February 1797, the Toshin squad personally visited the training ground and retrieved the spirit-sucking sword. It was judged that this was sufficient.
“You are doing well.”
He only said that, but Ban was gradually erasing the shadow of Temar from Jin. Jin didn’t know that fact, so he couldn’t gauge how much praise Ban expressed by saying ‘you’re good at it’.
Tantel, who followed Van, returned Bradamante.
“I heard that I shouldn’t use this because it supports my aura?”
“I have to write from today. Didn’t I say that sparring will begin when the brothers of Death Fight are finished?”
For Jin, it felt like the thing he had been waiting for had arrived.
‘From the first day I came to Lapla Rosa, I wanted to stick with the Myeongwang family properly.’
The inaction of fighting god and fighting king was an area that Jin could not dare to cross. Even without directly touching the knife, I could tell that much.
‘The fighting kings are all at least 9 stars by human standards. It might be at the 10-star level.’
The inaction of Tushin’s class was unfathomable. There is only a feeling that it is on the same level as Temar or Shiron.
‘I can’t get a sense of how normal warriors are.’
The average of White Rang or Red Tiger will certainly exceed.
“Brother Iltuwang will choose your first opponent by afternoon. To be honest, I think it’s still too early…”
“You talk like I’m going to lose.”
Tantel nodded.
“Exactly. For a 17-year-old human to fight a warrior of the Myung Dynasty is unimaginable in our time. And the Iltuwang brothers don’t like you.”
“why?”
“Hahaha, wouldn’t it be natural for you to be so arrogant in the main hall of Toshinjeon on the first day? The brothers of King Satu, King Otu, and King Paltu were generous.”
Soon, Tantel erased his smile and met Jin’s eyes.
“Instead, if you show a good side of yourself, it could be an opportunity to instantly change the eyes of the brothers who hate you, including the Iltuwang brothers. Please cheer me on and wish me luck. Did you follow my advice?”
Advice to take a look at Myeongwangsword. I couldn’t see it in person, but it was full in my memory.
As Ban and Tantel left the training ground, Garmund shook his head.
“Hmm, you are strong enough. no it’s huge I can’t believe he’s a human boy. So don’t be discouraged, it’s okay.”
“Tantel talks like I’m going to lose, and Garmund sounds like I’ve already lost. And I have never been discouraged.”
Boras and Rinpa also avoided Jin’s gaze as if they were thinking the same thing.
“Heh, I’m worried. Jin seems to be the kind of person whose soul gets hurt if he fails once.”
“As I see it, yes. Those who have lived their lives with only success every time tend to be like that.”
The faces of the Tuwangs were full of worry.
“But you also have to learn to rise above your failures.”
“sympathy. Defeat is also the driving force that grows a warrior. Hehe Temar has never been defeated outside, but he had a losing streak in Lapra Rosa.”
That was an interesting story.
“Garmund, in your opinion, what level was the theme of the first sparring in Lapla Rosa?”
“I was stronger than you now. A step or two?”
“okay. One or two steps.”
“Even so, I haven’t been able to beat normal warriors for a while.”
“Do you understand why the three of us are so worried? Temar also stopped eating and drinking for a while after the first fight with my brother. I think you and Temar are similar in that way.”
Garmund Boras Lynfa was completely misunderstood.
‘It’s not a big deal to lose once, but I have a lot of worries. When I trained with Alisa-nim, I experienced more than a hundred defeats.’
Unlike Temar, who had never been defeated before coming to Lapla Rosa, Jin was more familiar with defeat and failure than anyone else.
And to win the victory in the end.

The common warrior’s name decided by King Iltu was Shaku.
He was a warrior who used a long sword, and before the time of the Ming Dynasty stopped, he was called the ‘Thunderbolt Shaku’.
All 77 members of the Myungwang clan visited the training ground to watch the couple fight.
The atmosphere of the other members of the Myungwang family was no different from Garmund or Boras Linpa. Most of them were betting on how many times Shaku would finish Jin.
More than 30 members of the Myeongwang family chose ‘within ten’, and the rest expected a lower number than that.
The only ones thinking otherwise were Tushin Ban and Jin.
“Are you determined to be the successor?”
Shaku said with his heart shining. The light was reflected on the lightly drawn sword.
“If possible, I’d like you to drive me into the heart of killing me for real.”
“what?”
“If you think it’s just sparring and you won’t die, you become dull.”
“Anyway, I have to admit one gut. But over. Few things in the world are more disrespectful than a man who lacks humility.”
Jin smiled softly.
“Soon you will admit something else.”
A roaring triangular light stood on Jin’s chest. A figure that closely resembles the real Pluto heart that shines on Shaku’s chest.
As the aura spread through the triangular light dyed Bradamante, Shaku’s eyes lit up. It was a murder that stemmed from an instinctive rejection of the fact that humans use the Myungwang sword.
“The Great Sword…!? Could it be that the Tuwang brothers told you about it?”
“I don’t know about that. It was good, your sword.”
It was Jin who took the lead.
