Chapter 272.2: Creeping Evil Hand 3

It was a beautiful sword with a brilliance that would take your soul away that even Nadori and his colleagues, who had seen many famous swords under the tutelage of the Sword Saint (Kensei), also known as the Empires strongest swordsman, had never seen before.

It is not swordsmen but Hunters, who hold powerful swords in Zebrudia. Although many Relics gather in Zebrudia, the sacred land of Treasure Hunters, there are only a few Sword Relics, and among them, only a handful are powerful enough to be used. And since swords are one of the most popular weapons among Treasure Hunters, most of the Relics found are used by the Hunter who found them.

Even for the rare Relics that do appear on the market, the prices are sky-high, and there are many rivals to buy it, such as big merchants, nobles, and high-level Hunters. No matter if you are under the tutelage of the Sword Saint (Kensei) it is impossible to obtain such Relic, unless by some miracle.

Of course, there are many swords created by modern blacksmiths that are also very high quality. They are weapons that are more than powerful enough to fight against Phantoms and Monsters. Even today, those swords can be obtained at a reasonable price, and Nadori and the others had them, but even so, Sword Relics were still a dream weapon for Imperial Swordsmen. Because they had the opportunity to see such weapons while training under the Sword Saint (Kensei) their admiration for them was stronger than that of other swordsmen.

The fellow pupil who brought the swordWas the most troubled and unconventional pupil in the Thawne School.

Luke Psykol, the Thousand Sword (Senken). The man who loves swords and is loved by swords the most in the Imperial Capital. He is the man who suddenly came to the Sword Saint (Kensei) and applied to be his disciple and quickly became one of the most powerful men in the School, he is also a member of one of the best Treasure Hunter Party in the Imperial Capital, although he has a ridiculous anecdote where he had his sword taken away from him because of his tendency to cut people without restraint.

The conquest of a Treasure Shrine cannot be accomplished by swordsmanship or by strength alone. Luck, ability, and reliable companions are essential to conquer it. Therefore, Nadori and his fellow disciple cannot go look for Sword Relics by themselves.

The man who nearly slaughtered several of his fellow disciples when he was here was flawed both as a human being and as a swordsman, but he was undoubtedly a first-rate Treasure Hunter. And for those Hunters who have been to several Treasure Shrines that cannot be conquered by ordinary Hunters, Sword-type Relics, although rare, are probably not something on which they are so fixated about.

Nadori and his fellow disciple knew from their regular conversations that Lukes Party Leader, Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka) a Level 8 hunter, is a Relic collector and possessed several Sword-type Relics. That is why it would not be surprising if Luke Psykol suddenly brought in a Sword-type Relics.Thê source of this content n/o/v/(el)bi((n))

The Sword Saint (Kensei) Thawne Rowell is not a Treasure Hunter, but his swordsmanship surpasses that of High-level Hunters. There are quite a few High-level Hunters who used to train under Thawne and there have been times when a sword Relic was brought in to return the favor.

You know what, my buddy Cry told me to take it to my Master (Shisho). (Luke)

Coincidentally, Master (Shisho) had just left the dojo. Originally, it would have been impossible for us to see the gift for our Master (Shisho) first. But Luke, without hesitation, took the black cloth that wrapped the sword and.

Time had indeed frozen. The moment the sword came into view, all of the disciples, except Luke, gasped.

It says, Can you live your life as a swordsman without ever wielding this sword?.

I understand, lets deliver it to Master (Shisho). But this is a sword Relic. We cannot be sure that this is not some kind of cursed Magic Sword that will adversely affect its wielder. I cant hand over something dangerous to my Master (Shisho) without checking it first. (Nadori)

My eyes blurred. My voice was filled with a power that surprised even me.

It is impossible. It is known that there are Sword-type Relics that bring inconvenience to its wielder, but such things are very rare indeed, and this is a sword brought by Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka), so there is no way it could be a dangerous object. Luke has not said anything yet, but it is obvious that the swords power has already been investigated. After all, there is no way that anyone would give an unidentified Relic to the greatest swordsman of all time.

But Luke did not show any particular anger at what I said that even I would think was too much for a pretense.

Hmmm? Well, youre not wrong. (Luke)

At these words, Nadori felt a rush of unexplainable pleasure through his body.

He agreed with what I said. No, is this Luke showing me mercy? In my mind, I told myself that I would never have the chance to wield this sword again.

It doesnt matter. It is not like I have the intention to steal the sword. Just onceI just want to hold this sword and swing it once.

Maybe they were thinking the same thing, my fellow disciples surrounding the sword looked down at the jet-black sword with bloodshot eyes.

Before anyone could say anything, Nadori intimidated those around him, as he always does when he trains his younger fellow disciple and declared.

Then let me try it out once before I deliver it to our Master (Shisho). Lets test it to see if that sword is really not a cursed Magic Sword? (Nadori)

Thanks for reading! Lukes excuse to not use the sword is crazy, a real muscle-brain/battle maniac Poor Nadori here comes the Infinite Trial
