School kendo venue.

"It feels like it's been a long time since I've been here."

Kamiya swaggered into it, and the days of hard parkour to practice fencing are gone.

The red ghost teacher was still the same, with a hideous face and bulging muscles, and he was sitting in the center of the venue, with a slender knife beside him.

"Hey, Master, I'm here." Kamiya greeted him like this, and then continued as if showing off, "Tell you old man, your apprentice is out now, and I can now use the second stage of advanced mysteries of self-manifestation flow......

"Second paragraph...... Upanishads......"

The red ghost, who was kneeling in the center of the arena, raised his eyelids slightly, glanced at the apprentice with eyes the size of a copper bell, and then pushed the sword out of his side with his thick arms.

"Oh?" What Kamiya was about to say was interrupted by this action of the red ghost.

Teacher, it's a bit unusual today.

In the past, I saw that I had never done one thing, practicing swords.

Today, I didn't mention it.

"Perform the mystery...... I see ......"

The red ghost spoke, his voice heavy and hoarse, like a broken drum barely beating.

"It seems that because I have mastered silk fighting, there is really a new incident on Mr. Red Ghost's side." Kamiya guessed, smiling.

Something similar had happened to him before at the candle-making monk and Suzuhiko Hime.

Kamiyagawa bent down and picked up the slender Taidao on the ground.

The moment he picked up the knife, he felt the "one word" pattern on the hilt.

"Is this a handful of words?" Kamiya was slightly surprised.

He took the knife to his eyes and looked at the blade. In the past, the red ghost had always hidden this knife, so it was the first time that Kamiyagawa had observed this sword so clearly.

I saw this handle with a word, the blade is narrow and gorgeous, with ripples and a slight curve, and you can feel the complex and profound changes in the knife pattern when you wave it slightly.

The blade narrows from wide to thin, bright and clear, shrouded in an indigo-colored shimmer.

"What a handsome knife." Kamiya could see the god with a text in his hand, and he was sincerely amazed in his heart.

"Perform the mystery...... I see ......"

Maybe Kamiya was in a daze for too long, and the red ghost teacher once again opened his mouth to urge.

"Oh. Well, Master. ”

Kamiyagawa holds the handle of the knife with both hands, and the blade of this sword is extremely long, and it is not visible in the hands of the red ghost, but this characteristic is clearly reflected when Kamiya holds the knife.

Raise the sword above your head.

Regulate the rhythm of your breath with the breath of Aja.

"Split Time to a Flash......

Kamiya's gaze began to change, as if he had entered "bullet time", and the flow of time seemed to be unusually slow in his eyes.

At the same time, on the surface of everything in the field of vision, that kind of soft crystal silk thread appeared, pulling up.

"Like silkworms spitting silk!"

Kamiyagawa moved, and the moment he moved, the passage of time in his field of vision returned to normal.

A word slashed from top to bottom, turning into an indigo cold light flashing!

All the "time as delicate as silk" has been cut off.

With a blow of silk, the blade exploded and roared, and the shattered air turned into two air currents, and the wind pressure rose.

And Kamiyagawa, who was holding a sword and casting skills, stabbed out far away.

He turned his back to the red ghost teacher, his back was straight, and he handsomely put the knife into the sheath, and he didn't look back.

The light in the kendo hall is dim, and the sunrise outside the window is dim.

Smack, smack, smack.

Three or five seconds later.

There was heavy applause behind him.

Taidao Red Ghost recognized his apprentice's superb sword skills: "Silk ...... Sword into the Transcendental...... I have nothing more to teach you. ”

"Huh?" Kamiya turned back.

What do you mean?

Is this a teacher?

However, it doesn't seem to be incomprehensible.

The sword technique is a watershed between the mortal sword skills and the transcendent sword skills.

Normal people can only cut out three feet at most.

And to be able to use silk to beat, to be able to "see" on everything, those "as delicate as silk".

It means that sword skills have exceeded the limits of human beings and entered a realm that cannot be explained by science and common sense.

It is reasonable for swordsmanship to become a master after entering the transcendental.

The red ghost continued to speak, his voice hoarse, with a feeling of relief: "The sword will be used for me...... Sent to Mito ...... Kuronomiya Kendo ......"

As he spoke, he took out a dark, cone-shaped stone from his bosom and placed it on the ground.

"Hold...... This ...... "Red Oni pushes out the dark stone."

Buzzing.

Kamiyagawa's phone vibrates.

[The red ghost of the Flower Bell Trick School has launched a limited-time commission to you, and there is a successor!] ]

[The red ghost wants you to take this Nanquan Ichimonji Taidao in your hand and go to the Kuronomiya Kendo Dojo in Mito.] ]

[This is a time-limited mission, so please complete it within the time limit.] The deadline for completion stipulated by the red ghost is eighty years. ]

Kamiya looked at the text message on his phone, and raised his eyebrows: "Time-limited entrustment, is it okay to limit it to eighty years?" ”

He glanced at the Akaki sensei again, who just nodded at him, and then sat still in the center of the hall.

"Mr. Akagi actually meant to lend me this sword, right? Then, the condition is that as long as you take the sword to the Kuronomiya Kendo Hall in Mito within the eighty-year period, it will be fine. ”

Kamiya speculated.

Isn't this the same as giving for nothing?

The teacher was so gentle, I cried to death.

In this way, this Nanquan text is a bit like the rite of the red ghost handed over to the apprentice.

And Kamiya also saw a detail in the mission text.

"I only said that I should take the sword to the Black Palace Sword Dojo, but I didn't say whether I needed to hand over the sword."

After picking up a time-limited task that has lasted for 80 years, the phone vibrates again.

[I get a text of Nansenichi!] ]

[Item Name: Nanquan Ichi Text]

[Quality: Ultra Epic]

[Effect: None (War Ash Effect can be applied)]

[Description: One word for one day, one blade for one morning and dusk.] Cast in Nanquan Temple, a famous knife, the blade is clear and green, and the iron is sharpened like mud. ]

In addition to the one-text message, there is also a piece about the stones that the red ghost took out later-

[Obtain the Matte Forge Stone!] ]

[Lightless Forged Stone (Rare Material): A strange stone block from deep pits and mines, which is necessary to attach war ash to weapons. ]

"Forging stones?"

Kamiya picked up the dark stones on the ground and weighed them in his hands.

He remembered that the [Blood-stained Wood Knife] sacrificed for the War Dog God, although it was a high-level weapon, had its own effect, [Kidney Strike].

When stabbing a humanoid in the waist, it does extra damage.

"The quality of this text itself is super high, and it has reached the super epic level. However, in terms of effect, it is a tabula rasa, and depending on the meaning of the system information, you have to find the so-called 'war ash' with the forging stone to give a text a special effect bonus. ”

Kamiya digested the newfound information in his heart.

"However, as far as the current situation is concerned, one text on the whiteboard is enough for me."

He put away the sword handed over by the red ghost, and after saying "Thank you, Master" seriously, he walked out of the kendo hall with a relaxed pace.
