Chapter 141: Ciri, Ciris?

"Jiwiel, that's the name of this steel sword, a long sword that is both sharp and tough at the same time. The near-perfect ratio of mixed steel from the blade to the blade is a reference to Catalina's stacked armor forging process, but the most remarkable thing is that a master swordsmith has applied this armor craft to the blade perfectly. ”

"Then there's multi-metal mixed forging, and as far as I can see, this sword is used in at least five metals or more. Of course, to forge a good sword, it is not necessary to use any metal that is valuable, or the more types of metal the better. A 'beauty' like JVIEL is not the kind of 'vase' that sits on the stand. For example, the tip of the sword and the blade, if I guess correctly, this subtle pattern must be Bayerke Black Steel, an extremely hard but light metal...... That's worth a lot more than gold! ”

"Of course, hardness alone is not enough, the blade must also have enough 'flexibility' and 'toughness'. This is the same as many truths in the world, if a certain food does not have a soft side, it will always be 'sharp'. I can even bend its blade ninety degrees and it can be restored! ”

In Ciri's astonished eyes, Orlan snapped her longsword with her bare hands...... Although she did know that the sword of J. Viel was indeed tough enough, it was the first time she had seen it bend to such an extent.

But what is even more surprising is that Orlan actually bent the sword with just three fingers...... Well, it's long been known that he's a guy with strange powers.

This is just a simple daily life of Oran as a "teacher". Oran, who has the strength of a hundred schools, is very fond of Ciri's jade, so during the days they have been together, Oran is not stingy with the "mastery" in his own mind, as long as Ciri is willing to learn, he dares to teach.

"In addition, she has too many advantages, and I can only use 'take advantage of it' after the perfect combination of sharpness, tenacity, firmness, softness, quality, and balance required for a good sword."

For example, when Ciri talks about her weapons and asks Orlan if she needs a sword like Orlan, Orlan firmly dismisses her idea and praises "Giva Elle" inside and out.

"Actually, I haven't told you the last point, 'Jiwei El' is still a sword that can grow." Oran continued.

"Growth...... Why? "Ciri was curious about Oran's claim.

"Because of the Divine Stone, the reason why I say this is because this sword was cast and melted into a magical stone from the Divine Domain, in fact, we can call it a wedge-shaped stone. As far as I know, there are many types of Divine Stones, and the strange powers they contain can strengthen all kinds of weapons, or give them some more wonderful and powerful powers. ”

Of course, it's a long story to tell. But what I'm most curious about is the master who forged this sword, and I don't know anyone else in the world who has such power. Well, I should have inquired about his movements in Astra, and people like him should not be unknown. After all, he is a god-level boss who has beaten from 'Soul One' to 'Soul Three' and even the old gods......"

Ciri was a little confused, but she didn't continue to ask Orlan what he meant by the strange last sentence, because she was used to the "sick" Orlan during the day. Of course, in a way, Oran during the day is a good teacher, almost always answered, because Oran at night will not take the initiative to share these things with her.

In fact, Oran's favorite thing is to teach Ciri something, Ciri looks at him longingly like a little girl who is looking forward to being praised, and of course he will not be stingy with his affirmation and appreciation of Ciri, then Ciri's eyes will become bright and beautiful.

This is undoubtedly the most fulfilling thing Orlan has done since he came to this world, and isn't it an achievement that all traversers must achieve to get the admiration of one or more girls?

Ciri isn't even as old as Orlanda, so she's even younger than Lillian. And her experience may not be better than Lilian's, she has been cultivated as a little killer by a perverted killer old man since she was a child, and it can be called a miracle that she is not crazy until now!

On the contrary, after solving this nightmare and getting out of the abyss, Ciri can be said to have a great change in temperament. Especially when Oran and Yulia are around, she is simply a shy and gentle girl next door. (My Ciri can't be so cute!) Well, it's hard to say if you run into other people, like some bandits, hiss! It's really bloody and ruthless...... Oran likes it, though.

Well, speaking of Lilian and Yulia, one of them belongs to the "sworn enemies" who can't eat or sleep if they don't go-for-tat with Oran for a day, and the other is the eldest sister who often "commands" Orlan and tests his medicine, counting on them to be well-behaved and obedient, gentle and virtuous, and admire him as much as Ciri? It's impossible to think about!

However, I remembered Lilian in Astra, and I didn't know how she was doing now.

……

Oran has always enjoyed teaching a disciple to grow up, and after hearing Ciri talk about herself in detail, Oran learns that Ciri's only remaining family member is her grandfather.

When he learned the news, Orlan felt that something was wrong, shouldn't Ciri be the same Ciri from a certain Gwent card? In the past few days, Orlan has been talking to Ciri who is addicted to Gwent cards and can't extricate himself...... And Ciri is from the land of Twilight, where they have just left, and Ciri of the land of twilight is going to find his grandfather.

Hiss! Orlan thought of the old man he had met in his previous life, by the old bridge in the hospitable immortal settlement, and his brain hurt when he thought of that old man, because he didn't know how many times he had been executed by that old man's superb shield counter-skills...... Well, of course, when I died a lot, I stole the old man's stunt!

So is Ciri Cirith? The two names should be different according to the way the continental lingua franca is written, but there is only one word difference in the language of the predecessor. But it doesn't matter anymore, if Ciri is Ciris, then Orlan certainly won't let her die as a living corpse like in her previous life, no! Even now he won't make Ciri an undead. Maybe she can save her grandfather in the future.

Isn't that what this trip is for? He wants to completely lift the curse, let the fire pass end, and bring another way out to this world, changing the fate of one friend after another in the process of extinguishing the fire in his previous life.
