Chapter 183 – The Four And What They’re Doing 

The moment I entered the training ground where Hana and the others were, cheers erupted.

“Ooh, Yoizuki actually won.”

“Even though this is just a mock battle, it’s amazing that she can beat a level 3000 adventurer at level 2000.”

“What a ridiculous skill, that sword”

In the center of the room, Rei was standing there with a man from Classion sitting on the ground in front of her. According to the surrounding people, it seems they just had a mock battle, which was won by Rei. And in her hand, she held a sword with a yellowish green color as its characteristic, swaying in the air. It goes without saying, that was Rei’s unique skill 【Magic Sword】.

Then suddenly, Rei noticed my presence.

“Rin, you’re finally here. How is your body?”

“A little better, I guess. And I can already move if it’s light movements.”

“I see. Then, I’m glad.’

“More importantly, I heard it, you know? You just beat a level 3,000 opponent, right? That’s amazing.”

“… T-thank you”

Rei shyly thanked me, seemingly embarrassed for being praised directly like that. Looking at that, I laughed a little before directing my sight at the sword in Rei’s hand.

“If I’m not mistaken, you could create the sword that you imagined, right?”

“Un”

“… It makes me think once again about how excellent that skill is.”

The power to create anything as long as it is in the shape of a sword. When I was once again recognizing the excellence of its ability, Rei shook her head.

“It’s not that excellent. There is a limit to what I can create depending on the skill level and the amount of MP I use. Even if I could create it, there are also things that my current status cannot handle.”

“Well, that is to be expected.”

Just as Rei said, if she can really create anything, it means that power has already gone far beyond the concept of levels and will be effective against superior enemies. However, just like what we already know from the fact that she was about to be defeated by the Orc General a while ago, that skill is not that versatile.

Are? Come to think of it, that time…

“But then, what happened during the battle against Cain? Looking back, I feel like Rei’s movement at that time clearly exceeded that of her level…”

Right before I dealt a finishing blow to Cain, the sword that she brandished successfully halted Cain for a bit, resulting in me narrowly escaping death. At that time, Rei was clearly displaying a movement beyond her level. What exactly was that, I wonder?

Perhaps because the person herself also doesn’t know the reason, she placed her hand on her chin and gave it a thought.

“That time… helping Rin was the only thing in my head, so I don’t remember much about it. It was just the moment I realized that Rin would die if I do nothing… I just strongly… strongly hoped my sword could reach your opponent.”

“… And the skill responded?”

“… Un. I’m sure it is.”

… So, that’s it. Her power responded to her feelings, huh. That means, maybe Rei’s skill still has more abilities than what it has now. Something special that even the person herself is not aware of.

When I told Rei what I conjectured, she stared at her magic sword.

“Special power that exceeded my limit… That even I am not aware of.”

At this moment, I feel like some feeling of hope was contained in the words she muttered.

Then, while we’re talking like that–

“Rei-senpai! I can’t do it very well! Wait, what? So, you’ve come, Onii-chan?”

“Yes, I have come.”

As she displayed a surprised expression, I found that she held something that trembled abnormally in her hand. Or rather, isn’t that…

“Hana, what do you have in your hand?”

“This is a magic sword! I copied it from Rei-senpai!”

Looks like Hana’s unique skill, 【Stock】, can even copy other’s unique skills. Indeed, her skill now could copy up to level five skills after raising its level by using the SP she gained from the battle against Cain. Although I am a bit surprised that Rei’s [Magic Sword] is level 5 or lower, I can understand why its level doesn’t raise easily because the more excellent the skill, the more SP is required to raise its level. In other words, it was on a completely different level from my [Transfer Within Dungeon] before Lv 10.

In any case, I’m grateful that Hana can copy the [Magic Sword], as this skill would make their party even stronger. She hasn’t mastered it at all, though.

Looking at Hana who was crying on her, Rei answered with a bitter smile.

“Images are very important to use this skill. That’s why it’s so difficult to materialize it at first.”

“Is Rei-senpai also the same?”

“Naturally. By the way, it’s better for you not to try to materialize two swords until you get used to it. Because if you ever combine two contradicted attributes by mistake, the backlash will be terrible. That’s about it. Explosions are scary.”

“It exploded…?”

“Looks like it did…”

But well, I understand her feelings very well. Every otaku longs for dual wielding at least once, after all.

At any rate, after enjoying such an exchange with them, I left the two who started the lecture regarding that skill and looked around. Incidentally, it seems Yui is also in the middle of a hearing from a senpai in Classion about what she should know as a healer. As follows, I think it’s better not to talk to her right now. Which means, the only option left is Akari, but–

“Eee…”

For an unknown reason, she was sitting in one corner of the room. As expected, since reuniting, for some reason this girl is always doing such weird things.
