Chapter 101: The First Seat of the Bond
Of course, if the knife is blunt enough to be restored by nature, you can only go to a specialized grinder, and if it is broken or has a serious damage such as a chip, you can only find a smelter to repair it.
Assuming that there is no limit to the possession of swords, a student who is a fan of weapons brings hundreds of swords, and there will be an abnormal supply of divine power next to that guy's room. So only one handful is allowed. Because it was Sabbath, she couldn't get out of the counter, the door was open, and Azrika was doing book work in the office. For Lin Yiyan's quick knock on the door, she raised her face, and her pale blue eyes flashed.
"What's the matter, Yi Yan Junior Practitioner."
"It's rude...... I'm here to handle the permission to hold a sword for personal belongings! Lin Yiyan lowered his head slightly, walked in, and glanced around the room. There were several bookshelves on the walls, neatly lined with leather folders, and there was only one desk and chair. This lady is the only one who manages and operates the dormitory of the junior trainers where the one hundred and twenty students live.
The lady nodded slightly at what Lin Yiyan said, stood up immediately, and took one out of the bookshelf full of folders without confusion. took out a document made of commonly used paper from it and put it in front of Lin Yiyan, "Fill in the necessary matters inside!" ”
"Yes, okay!" Lin Yiyan hurriedly put his eyes on the paper, and what he needed to fill in were simple matters such as name, student number, and priority of the sword. Lin Yiyan was glad that there was no guardian column in his heart, and wrote [Yi Yan] in katakana, and the student number was [7] - after that, Lin Yiyan paused his pen slightly. Only then did I remember that the black sword had been swung tried, but I forgot to check the 'window'.
Under the gaze of Lady Azrika, she put the burlap bag on her back on the table, and unfastened a leather button, revealing only the hilt of the sword, but it was enough to open the window, and looked at one end of the burlap bag, at this time.
“…………!” Hearing the sound of a violent inhalation, Lin Yiyan raised his face. Then, Ms. Azrika, who was usually calm and calm, opened her eyes with a rare gap.
"Ah, that...... Is something wrong? After Lin Yiyan asked, the lady blinked repeatedly and shook her head "nothing". It didn't seem that he was going to say anything more, Lin Yiyan turned his gaze back and imagined it with motion·command on the two fingers of his right hand. Knocking on the head of the hilt of the sword, Property·Indo appeared with the sound of a bell.
The priority indicated is [Class46].
Unexpectedly, it is one level higher than the Class of the artifact Green Rose Sword. No wonder it's heavier. Filling in the numbers in the third column and rewrapping the sword, Lin Yiyan submitted the completed paperwork. Lady Azrika slowly shifted her gaze from the sword on the table to the paper, and after taking it, began to confirm the contents. She should know my name and number, is it the number 46 that she wants to see?
…… What's wrong, could it be that there is a limit to the priority of the sword he holds, when Lin Yiyan thought so in his heart-
"Yi Yan Practitioner."
"Yes, yes."
"You're right...... The memory of this sword ......, "However, the words are broken here." Azrika closed her eyes briefly, and after suddenly opening them, she returned to the stern expression of her previous dormitory teacher.
“…… It's nothing. Holding the application I accepted. The use of real swords can only be done when practicing individually. The verification test is absolutely not usable when practicing in a group, is it clear? ”
"Yes!" After answering imposingly, after carrying the rewrapped black sword, Lin Yiyan hesitated whether to ask the lady about the second half of her words just now. However, Lin Yiyan thought to himself, even if he asked, he would not get an answer, so after performing a knightly salute, he walked out of the office.
Walking on the front hallway again, Lin Yiyan thought blankly, "The sword's... Memory? ”
It's inconceivable that in this world, all objects, including swords, are recorded in the form of visual data from memory. However, this is only a technology developed by the real-world venture capital firm Reims, and it is not a manifestation of the consciousness of the residents living in the under-orld.
That is, what Ms. Azrika said, the meaning of the phrase "the memory of the sword" can be understood literally. This black sword itself holds some kind of memory. But what exactly are these memories? What did she see about the black sword?
When I walked out of the dormitory with such a question still lingering in my mind, the bell tower extending above the room rang the bell at three o'clock in the afternoon. The sound is much thicker than that of the church bell in Loulid, but the melody is exactly the same.
The agreed time with Senior Sister Lena is five o'clock.
Judging from the performance in the Sadray Gold craft shop, the black sword does not feel out of place...... It's better to feel like the sword of love from the old SAO era has been resurrected. However, it is necessary to confirm in advance whether or not the mystery of the Aingrun Stream can be activated, which is the upper Sord Skill.
On the Sabbath, when there is only one day a week to go out, most of the students from Santoria have gone home, and a few people born in the city have also gone to the attractions of Yangdu, and the vast campus is now quiet. However, there are woods and small rivers on campus, and there is no shortage of places to practice swordsmanship - however, I want to rule out the possibility of being seen in case. After all, what Lin Yiyan wants to practice now is a 'continuous technique' that all swordsmanship schools in this world do not have.
Why, there is a Sord Skill in Underorld.
Why, there is no other combo here.
It's been two years since he entered this world, but Lin Yiyan doesn't know these reasons at all. The only thing we know is that the Under orld that Russ's developers built is just based on The seed as the engine, plus some packaging......
After that, if there is no basis, it is just a matter of making speculations on top of speculation and so on. If you want to know the facts, you have to go to the horizon of Santolaru Caso Doraru and get in touch with the administrators.
Anyway, the swordsmen in Underorld use their sword skills as a secret meaning of the genre are all single-shot skills like vertical and avalanche.
The reason for this can be speculated to some extent. I'm afraid it is, because there is no real combat. Under orld, where there is an absolute law of taboo catalogs, and under the protection of almost invincible people like integrated knights, no matter what kind of battle is bound to become a competition. The pursuit is only good-looking, and elegant victory. Striking a majestic pose from a distance, and then using all your strength to score a single shot is just these things that the swordsmen of this world have pursued for hundreds of years.
And then there is another reason, in order to prevent accidents that happen by chance.
The competitions at the local conventions are all point-to-point, and the higher-level meetings in the central capital are considered victorious as long as they hit the first blow, and the continuous skills that are difficult to stop after being launched will naturally not be studied.
In this case, physique and courage prevailed, and there was absolute confidence in the power of the first blow...... For example, if you can use a strong swordsmanship, you can become a strong man, but if you have a duel that prohibits the use of combo skills, first of all, you will not be able to win a battle against an opponent with a two-handed weapon of the same level.
The reason why Sister Solutilina has been ranked behind Chairman Uro for the past two years must be this. Even if Lin Yiyan showed the continuous skills of SordSkill to Senior Sister Lina, she would not be able to use it. Even Yugeo, who had not yet acquired any of the existing swordsmanship habits, had spent several months mastering the two-hit Vertical·arc.
It's just that what Lin Yiyan wants to show his senior sister is that Lin Yiyan's swordsmanship is not only a big slash and some fierce swings, but more practical swordsmanship. The self-proclaimed Ayn Grant stream is very similar to the Serlut stream, so Lin Yiyan wants to use this to dispel the idea in the senior sister's mind that her own genre is inferior to Ha Nolukia's stream, if she succeeds, then the senior sister has a chance to win in the graduation competition.
Lin Yiyan walked to the east while thinking about it in his heart, and finally reached the corner of the school.
On the campus, which is surrounded by fan-shaped walls, there are many buildings, including the central school building and the overhaul yard, the library, two dormitories for trainers, a dormitory for instructors, and a dormitory for senior sword cultivators. Still, there is a lot of open space in the academy. The south and north walls contain the school's gates, a hill to the west, and a larger wooded area to the east. However, students are not seen in these places on their days off.
However, just in case, Lin Yiyan still chose the eastern woods with more shelter, and I stopped there after finding a relatively empty place in the woods. Short grasses grow together compactly, even on the lawn of a football field, and the length is not in the way. After looking around and making sure that there were only two or three butterflies other than himself, he put his hand behind his back.
Flip the burlap bag open slightly, and grasp the exposed hilt of the sword. After feeling the attractive texture of the leather on the hilt, he pulled the sword out in one go.
The sunlight leaking from the leaves shone on the black longsword, and since the material was a branch of the Kigascida, it should be a wooden sword to be exact. However, the reflected light reflected on the blade of the sword now is a hard brilliance that can be misunderstood about the material. The blade of the sword, which the craftsman Sadre spent a year grinding, has a high priority just by looking at it...... However, there is no trace of 'memory' to be found from the non-verbal object.
Putting aside the doubts first, Lin Yiyan put his feet in a basic posture and led the sword to the sky with his right hand. Different from the trial swing in the craft shop, this time Lin Yiyan imagined a strong sword skill in his mind. I'm imagining the single-shot diagonal slash Sord Skill, a slant, that I've released so many times so far.
An instant later, the blade burst out with a vivid water-colored light. Pushed by an invisible hand, with the timing, the foot and right wrist accelerated.
xiu! With a sharp sound, the slash slid across the path of the void. This oblique trajectory line quickly spread and disappeared. Sword Wind cut the weeds on the ground in a straight line.
Lin Yiyan maintained the posture of swinging his sword, staring at the trunk of the ancient tree five meters in front of him. However, even with the effect of the sword technique curtailed, there were no scars on the trunk.
And of course. The damage range of the basic skill slant is only two and a half meters at most. At twice the range of the scar, the power certainly can't be transmitted.
However, if that's the case...... In the craft shop, why was the same round shield five meters away being cut off? Could it be that by chance, the Mandate of Heaven just disappeared, and Lin Yiyan definitely didn't activate the Sord Skill. Although Yugeo said that there was light on the sword, Lin Yiyan didn't know why.
"Really, there's so much I don't know. There are so many things I don't know about this world. He sighed and stood up. After finishing his breathing, he began to move on to the next technique.
Slash it down from above. Before hitting the ground, he slashed his sword vertically back upwards as if it had been rebounded. Two-hit combo Vertical?arc. The wind was stronger than before, and the weeds shook violently. Up to this point, it has been a skill that can be used with a wooden sword for practice. Lin Yiyan changed the standing posture of his feet, put the sword on his waist, and twisted his body to the right.
“………!” Silently unleashed a horizontal slash to the left. The frontal slash stopped as if it had been hit by some kind of impact, and then it was picked up to the right and slashed down again. Take a step forward and slash forward with a short range and high power. This is the triple attack technique, Savage Fulcrum.
The true red trajectory that was very similar to the number 4 dissipated into the air, and Lin Yiyan looked at it speechlessly. Nodding his head, he was ready for the next move. Place the sword in the middle of your body, raise it above your head, and draw it back.
Previous paragraph. Small segments. Then he turned his body to the back of the front chop, and finally swung it down with all his might. The sky depicts a cyan square, constantly rotating and moving forward, and then spreading away. Because of its large range and small flaws, it is a four-in-one continuous vertical slash technique that Lin Yiyan loved to use in the old SAO era - vertical·square.
The four Sord Skills, without a single failure, were all activated. In this way, it was confirmed that the Black Sword had the same priority as the artifact Jade Rose Sword held by Yugeo. However, when I opened the window of this sword in the dormitory office and saw the number Class46, I expected that this would be the case.
It seems that the agreement to show Lina Senpai the superior SordSkill can be achieved. After sighing, another emotion came to my head. The Sword of the Green Rose, the most that can be launched is a four-hit combo skill, and a big skill with more than five consecutive hits, no matter how hard you try, you can't send it. So, what about this black sword? Anyway, I'm going to experiment after all, and now there is no one around, so it's a good opportunity.
Hold the sword again, and stick your right foot wide out in front of you. Hold your sword over your left shoulder and start accumulating your strength. Coldly, there was a dull ache at the root of the front hair, as if warning something. However, Lin Yiyan waved away his distracting thoughts and focused his attention.
Kazi, Kazi, orange sparks popped out of the blade, confirmed from the corner of the horizon. Completely different from the bright effect light emitted before, the light emitted this time is not stable at all. I strongly imagined the shape of the technique in my mind, and continued to maintain the preparatory movements. The spark is still going on, and it can't settle down.
Because of his unstable posture, he couldn't keep it anymore, and when he endured it to the limit, Lin Yiyan moved in one breath.
"Wow......!" Subconsciously leaked air from his mouth, and his right foot shook the ground. The sword swung from the top left to the bottom right, with the help of the system, the sword reversed at an acute angle in front of the street point - it should be like this, but it did not stop, and slammed into the ground.
A strong reaction was transmitted to the right hand. If you forcibly pull the sword back at this time, you will be hurt, and in an instant, Lin Yiyan made such a judgment. Gritting his teeth, he pulled his body back, and pulled the sword that had been inserted twenty centimeters into the ground backwards.
Boom! With a heavy impact sound, Lin Yiyan didn't have time to turn around and fell backwards.
- It really failed. What the hell is not enough? Grade? The priority of the sword? Or is it ...... both? Just when Lin Yiyan was thinking like this, Lin Yiyan, who was lying on the ground with his body arranged in big characters, saw -
Dirt and grass that are flying in the air because of the slash. Then opposite, on the other side of the clearing, stood a man. The tall figure wears a school uniform, and the color is not basic gray. It's pure white with bright azure lines. The freedom to customize the color of the uniform is the privilege of the only twelve high-level swordsmen in the academy.
Lena-senpai is gray and purple. Kruklon's predecessors were dark green, and then, pure white with azure lines...... The Swordsman Chair, Uro Nippontein –
With short pale blonde hair and blue eyes that did not show any expression, he looked straight at Lin Yiyan, he couldn't be wrong, this is the man with the strongest name in the academy, the immovable thing.
Lin Yiyan, who fell to the ground, saw that on the chest of his pure white uniform, a piece of soil that had been knocked off by his own sword had been hit, leaving a radial stain. If you want to run away, if Lin Yiyan hasn't thought about it, it must be a lie.
If it was in reality and secretly did something bad, Lin Yiyan would definitely have run away secretly. However, if you do something wrong in this world and run away immediately, it is the worst option. It will only be a crime with one more degree, and the final face will be a horrific taboo catalogue violation.
Therefore, it was only a short second when he was in a state of hard stun, Lin Yiyan quickly got up, bowed down and apologized, "I'm really sorry, Your Highness the Nippon Te Yin Cultivator!" I apologize for my rudeness! ”
"You are, the retinue of the swordsman of Serlute." He asked calmly. Lin Yiyan looked up at his blue steel-colored eyes and nodded deeply.
"Yes, it's Yi Yan, a junior practitioner."
"That's right." The swordsman, glancing at the black sword lying on the grass, continued in a deep tenor voice, "According to the rules of the academy, throwing dirt on the uniform of a senior is enough to be the object of punishment, but ......"
When I heard this, I groaned inwardly. 19
