Chapter 9: Inborn Swordsman (Revision)
The healing effects of the iPS Capsule were incredibly powerful. His nearly fatal wounds healed completely within a few hours, making him indistinguishable from before the injury.
The medical technology in this world was outrageously advanced and incomparable to his previous life.
However, the therapeutic effects of the iPS Capsule also had limitations. It could only heal, not regenerate.
It was true that if brain cells remained active, even decapitation wounds could be revived by the iPS Capsule, but once an organ was lost, even if life could be saved, the organ could never regenerate.
In other words, the iPS Capsule could only combine, not create anew.
Why did Hoshiharu know so much about iPS Capsule technology?
Of course, it was because he had been dealing with the iPS Capsule since he was a child. In the fifteen years since his rebirth, he had entered the iPS Capsule countless times.
Seeing Hoshiharu moving freely, Touka reluctantly felt relieved.
She was genuinely scared when she saw him lying in a pool of blood, looking as if he was on the verge of death.
"The director asked me to convey a message to you."
She took the tray and handed the still steaming dinner to Hoshiharu.
"She congratulates you on passing the entrance exam and becoming a new student at Hagun Academy this year. She also said that if you had stated earlier that you were a Blazer with a Causation Interference System Noble Arts, the fight would not have been necessary."
Although Blazer abilities varied widely, broadly speaking, Noble Arts could be categorized into several types.
The first was the Body Strengthening System , which could only strengthen physical abilities. However, for Blazers, as long as they used their Magic Power, they could have the same effects as the Body Strengthening System .
Next was the Natural Interference System, which could use the power of nature. Typically, it had the advantage of a wide attack range and had the broadest blade-cutting ability.
Then there was the Conceptual Interference System, which could control the ideas and rules that had been stabilized by human civilization and survival of the fittest, possessing all sorts of extraordinary powers.
Lastly, there was the Causation Interference System System, recognized as the strongest among all systems. It had the power to alter cause and effect. It was extraordinary to use, but there were very few Blazers with this ability.
Hoshiharu had the Noble Arts of the Causation Interference System System, Absolute Speed, rated as E-Rank, but he was undoubtedly at the peak of E-Rank and fully qualified to pass the entrance exam of Hagun Academy.
"Including you, there are only two people with Causation Interference System Noble Arts in our Hagun Academy." Touka explained to Hoshiharu.
A Blazer was a genius that only one in a thousand people could become, but a Noble Arts of the Causation Interference System System was a genius that even one in ten thousand Blazers could not produce.
Hoshiharu stood up from the bed, planning to get out of bed, but was immediately stopped by Touka's gaze. He could only lie back down, take the food, and start devouring it.
"How does it taste?"
"Hmm... Just average, much worse than what Senior Sister makes."
"We haven't seen each other for a year, but your mouth is still as sweet as ever. I was quite busy today and didn't have time to cook. Forgive me!"
"It's just the truth."
Touka pursed her lips and chuckled.
The food at Hagun Academy was nutritious. The most important thing was the nutritional combination, so of course, it didn't taste great.
Of course, she was even happier that Hoshiharu could remember what her cooking tasted like.
"Why did you ask the director for a duel today, and why did it end up like that?"
The smile on Touka's face quickly faded, her eyebrows slightly furrowed, and she asked, "With your Noble Arts, you didn't need to go that far; you could have easily enrolled in the school."
As long as the Noble Arts Causation Interference System was revealed, Kurono would never have refused him.
Because of this, there weren't many opportunities to play against a former third-ranked Blazer in the world.
Hoshiharu swallowed the food in his mouth and raised his chopsticks to express his thoughts.
"Of course, I couldn't pass up the opportunity. Fighting against strong opponents and seeking an epiphany of life and death can make me stronger step by step and surpass my own limits. Didn't Master often say this?"
And safety was guaranteed. If so, he couldn't pass up the opportunity.
After reliving his second life, Hoshiharu's life had deviated from the normal path. The stagnant lifestyle of his previous life had long been gone. He was forced to endure fourteen miserable years due to a moment of foolishness.
It was only at the beginning of last year that he started to feel like a human again.
As a teenager, Hoshiharu had thought more than once. If he hadn't chosen to make an extreme account when creating the character template before time traveling but had made a mediocre one instead, would his second life still have ended up like that?
"Is this an instinct to fight the strong?"
Touka looked at Hoshiharu, who was devouring the food on the bed, and wanted to scold him for completely ignoring his body to compete with strong individuals, but after thinking about it, she still didn't say anything.
A so-called Knight was to endure pain that ordinary people couldn't bear.
Not to mention, if you wanted to constantly surpass yourself and break through your limits, you had to endure pain several times more than others. People who didn't experience pain weren't worthy of success.
This was indeed difficult for ordinary people to understand, but Touka was also a Knight and a very good Knight, so she could understand.
Because she could understand, she couldn't blame anything.
Touka looked at Hoshiharu, her eyes serious, and one could feel the desire swirling in her heart.
Looking at him, she couldn't help but think of what her Master had told her when she first met him a few years ago.
"Hoshiharu is an Inborn Swordsman."
"Both his body and soul seem to be born specifically for the sword. As long as there is time, there is no problem in surpassing the existing peak and becoming a new pinnacle. Although physical difficulties have consumed too much time, it will also become his unique motivation to move forward..."
Hoshiharu's body had endured immense torment, which was why he had a willpower that exceeded ordinary people.
And he also had a clear goal and fighting spirit to work hard to achieve it.
Compared to most people who didn't even recognize themselves, couldn't find a purpose in life, and just lived in a blur, Hoshiharu was already ten thousand steps ahead of them.
"...He is indeed born to be a swordsman."
Touka was silent for a long time, and finally, she could only sigh helplessly with a complicated expression.
"I won't say much about this aspect of yours, but Junior Brother, you must promise me one thing."
"What?"
"Lightning Flint, that's the name of the technique from earlier, right?"
Touka's expression became serious, and she warned with a grave tone: "If you still value your life, then register that technique as a forbidden skill. Do not use that technique lightly unless absolutely necessary!"
Although Hoshiharu indeed had a Noble Arts to dominate the field with one attack, the burden on his body would also change with the strength of his opponent. The stronger the opponent, the greater the burden on his body.
This time he was lucky; he was almost dead. If next time he was unlucky, he might die instantly.
If he wanted to use that technique safely without dying on the spot after using it, Hoshiharu had to train his body and become physically stronger.
