Chapter 143: Phase 1
"With this, it would be okay right ?"
Nox's generous tone
Prim cannot help but be astonished
'Reinhaver family without doubt is a Distinguished family in the Swordsmanship world. A family that is known for using Black sword and Supreme sword. Despite that, why is he interested with slaves like us?'
No matter how he thinks about it, this is a part that cannot be understood easily
But in this urgent situation, he didn't have the luxury to keep thinking about it
He can always solve the suspicion later, but the matter of life isn't
If not now, he will die
Not only him but all the people who were brought here
"What should I call you from now on?"
Right after concluding, Prim asked Nox
Nox said while still looking at him with the arrogant look as usual
"Call me Mr. Nox, Keep in mind I will kill you if you act rude. Getting too cocky is the same"
"Understood"
Nonetheless, it seems the rumor that says he is a ruffian isn't wrong
Prim briefly thought it, soon he couldn't help but listen to what Nox said
"Get out of this underground auction and go alone to the center of Casino, I don't need to explain the way there, right?
"Of course"
Nox said such as if he had grasped his ability
Prim is a Cynanthropy which is one of Beast Tribes
A beastfolk with appearance that mixes half-human and half-dog. They usually think and converse like humans. But there is a tendency to have characteristics of Animal that similar to themself
For example, although Prim possesses an outstanding sense of smell, he has weakness of bad eyesight as a Cynanthropy
However that means . .
'Even while he had been abducted here, he can figure out the escape route by remembering its smell'
Nox thought so, and it's indeed true
Prim gave a quick nod and started running leaving Nox behind. Before one knows it, a lot of humans and beastfolks are following him.
Nox who watches that figure has a subtle smile on his face
"As expected of a guy who is talented in leadership. I have no doubt about this bastard"
He clearly proves that he is a unit with genius trait. Just seeing his remarkableness from the beginning is enough to know this fact.
At any rate, Prim will be a huge support in the latter half.
Following Inner Lunatic nature that carries out a lot of large-scale wars. For Nox, he probably will become the best comrade
'I have warned him not to behave rudely in advance. What, if it doesn't work It will be fine If I just beat him up'
Nox casually thought and sighed
Now I feel things are somewhat wrapping up
"Then, next is over there . ."
Nox calmly fixed his gaze forward
There Luna and Jagan are confronting each other
In the original story, it was over-spec the moment he bought Luna. The first stage should be skipped immediately after exchanging a few strikes.
'It should be like that based on the stats'
But Nox still hasn't let his guard down
It's because the damned variable never works in his favor.
Even though Nox had recited the mantra, somehow he still felt slightly off. Why is that ? Rather he feels something wrong will burst in the moment the thing seems to work out well
I feel somewhat uneasy
'I even brought Luna here, so there wouldn't be anything wrong, right ?'
Approximately 30 minutes later
Nox had realized..
The fact that he shouldn't thought like that
From olden times, a positive mindset tends to guide you to denial
———————————–
White Sword
Unlike Stormbringer's dark, mana-imbued blade. This sword shines with white light, and draws an elegant sword path
I know what this sword is
'A sword that only Luna can wield. An artifact crafted from Moonlight stone to allow its wielder to get complete control over Moonlight element. [Cold Moon]'
This sword is one of the strongest artifacts in Inner Lunatics
Since only Luna can wield it, the only chance you can feel its destructive force is during a moment like this when Luna fights.
No other characters can wield her sword,
In fact it's a sword you can only see.
'While I'am at it, should I try to follow Luna's swordsmanship with my eyes ?'
My level isn't high yet. Nevertheless, even if I can't see properly how Luna uses her sword, I might be able to get familiar with it to a certain extent
If I just properly utilize genius trait given to me, turning something impossible into possible isn't out of question
Especially since I am planning to learn her swordsmanship (Moonlight sword) later, it will be helpful to see her in action firsthand
'I figured out it would be in far ahead, but all paths were set once I got the scroll, the only way to master hidden swordsmanship'
The hidden sword you can learn here is none other than Luna's moonlight sword
'This is the reason I throw away [Supreme black sword], so I can learn Moonlight sword, it's like a cheat swordsmanship when you're playing a villain role in Lunatic'
But there are some requirements to learn this swordsmanship.
For that, I visited Chaders to master a sword technique, sticking to that build all the way through.
Anyway, it's obvious I will pick up new swordsmanship pretty soon.
Before that, Luna has to give her approval first.
Anyway,
When I am lost in thought.
Finally, Luna's sword began firing at the enemy
"I will end this at once"
Gradually, mana begins to gather from Luna's sword, revealing its sharp edge to the enemy.
Next, the one that manifested is. First form from the first half [Transcend]. It was a technique that boosts physical ability and unleashes mana stored in the sword in one go
The second form is [Full Moon]
This is a cheat skill that exhibits its power more as full moon gets closer.
"This fucking bastard… Bitch, so you're the successor of 'Moonlight Sword' user !"
Abuses came out of Jagan's mouth
But in a relaxed tone, Luna goes on with the next word
"Moon Split"
The third super-form of the first half Moonlight Sword radiates a bright white light that dazzles eyes and blasted toward the enemy.
In an instant, the sword soars, carved into my memory
I keep an eye on this
I notice a lot just from that
I wish for even more
Limit of Swordsmanship, where does it end ?
I don't know yet, but I slightly felt it when I saw her sword
The third super form of the first half [Moon Split]
The purity of a sword that Luna swings.
The number of enemies who survived after witnessing this sword technique can be counted by hands in Inner Lunatic.
It was a technique I saw in battle with paimon, but unlike that day, it was stronger. Luna has been improving
Me too, to get stronger, I need to be able to experience even more
To relish the experience of growth, I recognized my own progress was still trivial compared to Luna's exquisite sword.
It's still the first half of the game, and we just barely enter the second episode. But my heart is bouncing violently unable to tolerate this
At that moment, a thought popped into my head
I want to be like that too
I want to slice through night's darkness with a pure white sword
I want to cut through beautiful stars and enemies, with moonlight shimmering through my hair
Thump. thump..
An intense urge to grab a sword hit me hard
Even though I realized there's no room for me to get involved in this battle, I just couldn't shake the feeling.
Rustle!
"Euaakk"
Jagan let out a loud shriek
But Luna isn't done yet
Once more, then once more
Moon Split
Moon Split
While repeating this, she shoved that bastard into severe paint
Just like that, Jagan's arms, and those two horns on his head were neatly severed. Luna's sword is shimmering at the end of my gaze
While suppressing my throbbing heart, I made my way over to Luna
How can I get you to teach me a swordsmanship ?
I'd like to be your disciple
I want to learn Moonlight sword
A lot of phrases came up, but I felt none of these would resonate with her
Moonlight sword is a very special technique that only handed down to one person
In order to become a disciple and learn this, I have to finish 2nd year grade course. At least that is how it was during my time as a player
But I had different sensations compared to when I was playing the game.
I want to have it . .
Her sword drives me wild
I can't help but want to possess it, I'am still figuring out what this feeling really means, but for now, that's just how I genuinely feel
However it was as if something like my feelings were irrelevant, Her expression twisted with resentment. Luna curtly walked up to Jagan
That bastard got beaten up so hard to the point it's tough to recognize his figure
Even though phase 2 still remains, I don't think he can manage it in that situation
"I will end it now"
At last Luna's voices are echoing out. Her white sword is lifted up into the sky, and just as it's about to come down
Zuzuzuzuzu!
Out of nowhere, the ground started to rumble, and the surroundings began to shake
'What?'
In an instant, my consciousness that had been directed solely to the sword is snapped out
Luna too is distancing herself from Jagan and came over to my side
What's going on ?
I thought Jagan shouldn't have remaining strength to keep going in the second phase.
"Hehehehe… Hahahahaha !"
A vulgar, devil-like laughter is spreading out.
Along with that, Avalat gambling house began to collapse
Kwakwakwakwa!
"Newcomer!"
Luna raises her sword while protecting me
Then a pure white protection layer is developed, kind of like an umbrella covering me on a rainy day. At the same time, I end up witnessing it
Jagan
One of the 72 demons. A relatively easy-to-deal opponent thanks to his simple attacking pattern. It seems just like in past events, the butterfly effect is influencing him too
This bastard surprisingly is getting stronger
A massive surge of mana shook the center of the area, a crimson moon floated through the ruins of buildings, ascending into the air
Beneath that moon, something carved by red blood and slightly different than magic circle formula used in sorcery began to emerge
I knew right away what it is
"Transmutation Circle"
"What?"
As Luna was taken aback and shot a question back, I continued
"This is a transmutation circle used in Alchemy. That guy is … dangerous"
