Chapter 296 Peace

Part 1

“Sharpen your spirit! To be defeated by a Magic Sword is a disgrace to the school!” (Thawne)

The students swing their swords single-mindedly. At the “Sword Saint (Kensei)” school dojo. The place where the claw marks of the Magic Sword still strongly remained was filled with even greater enthusiasm than before.

Thawne Rowell, the 『Sword Saint (Kensei)』 glanced at his students with a sharp gaze and looked down at the main source of the turmoil at his side.

The magic sword was deeply stuck into a pedestal, quietly shining in the sunlight.

While Nadori was wielding the sword, the sword seemed to have a jet black color that seemed to absorb everything, but now the blade is shining with a suspicious crimson color that stirs people’s hearts.

This is… It is probably this.

It bewitches people with its dubious brilliance and evokes madness in those who hold it in their hands. A true demonic sword.

It is an unprecedented case that Nadori, one of the most skilled students in the school, was possessed by a magic sword.

The swordsmanship of the “Sword Saint (Kensei)” school has earned a special position in the Imperial Capital because of its proficiency. It has many students among the nobility in the Imperial Capital and sometimes stands shoulder-to-shoulder with the Knight Order.

Some citizens claimed that the “Sword Saint (Kensei)” school was stronger than the Knight Order. If word got out that a swordsman from one of these schools had been possessed by a Magic Sword and gone on a rampage, the reputation of the school would fall to the ground, and this would have led to a decline in national power. The school does not only have allies, there are also those who do not think well of them.

Thanks to Franz-kyo’s quick response, we were able to get by with just this much. The actual destruction of the dojo cannot be hidden, but a gag order was laid down at the last minute.

It never appeared in the newspapers or other media. Rumors may have started, but citizens were not harmed, and if there was no evidence, on the surface it would seem like there is no problem.

Apparently, Franz-kyo was asked to intervene by 《Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka)》 via a Symphonic Stone. He was the one who sent the sword so he was really a foul man.

And the only reason most of the students who knew the situation didn’t leave was because――Thawne himself had proven his strength.

In the first place, the Thawne-style swordsmanship is all about training your mind, technique, and body, not drowning in strength, and standing his ground when facing hopeless battles, and maintaining a calm mind in any situation.

In light of this belief, Nadori was too immature.

I don’t care whether the fault lies with 《Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka)》 or not. No matter the case, this is a shameful result for the head of the school.

Because the senior student who I directly taught and polished their mind, technique, and body was corrupt.

I put my hand on the hilt of the magic sword.

To master the sword, I traveled all over the world. I fought many powerful enemies and was blessed with many allies, and at some point, I was known as the “Sword Saint (Kensei)”.

This is human potential. Even a cursed magic sword cannot violate a spirit sharpened like a sword.

Thawne himself is still walking on this path, but even so, if it is a magic sword of this level, even he can resist it.

I looked around at my students who each wielded a sword and raised my voice.

“Indeed…… This sword has a terrifying power. It is a Magic Sword that bewitches its bearer and invites him or her to kill. But it is the weak heart that lurks within us that this sword takes advantage of, if you reach the state of Meikyo Shisui, you will not be tempted by the sword.” (Thawne)

Therefore――Luke Psycol, who sought only sword skills with a straight and insanely pure mind, was not tempted even when he held the sword.

A great sword is something that tempts people’s minds to a greater or lesser degree. When a person no longer loses his or her mind when touching this sword, it can be said that they have finally become a true swordsman, regardless of the skills they have honed or the achievements they have made up to that point.

Holy swords choose their wielder, but cursed swords also choose their wielder.

“Whoever thinks can do it, can challenge this magic sword at any time. I will be there. When you overcome the temptation of this sword, you would have reached a higher realm.” (Thawne)

With a new and clear goal in mind, the swordsmen under my tutelage were now more focused. The slight awe that had remained in their hearts at the bewitching brilliance of the magic sword has certainly faded.

At this rate, it won’t be long before we see a swordsman who can overcome this magic sword.

Voices full of spirit rise. The wounded Nadori had also finished his treatment and was single-mindedly swinging his sword among them.

There, Luke, who was the only one swinging with a wooden sword, said

“”Master (Shisho)” ……………… What about my trial?” (Luke)

“Luke, you………… Learn not to cut things.” (Thawne)

“I’ve already learned that from Cry a long time ago………… Anyway, “Master (Shisho)”, I want to cut strong people!” (Luke)

I have also told you this many times before, in case you forgot……

Or rather, Luke…… Don’t tell me you weren’t deceived by the sword because you are already a lost cause in general……

Thawne let out a deep sigh, overwhelmed by a strange sensation.

Guiding a disciple to the right path is difficult even with the power of a 《Sword Saint (Kensei)》.

“Mm…… So this is what you call a lucky break……” (?)

“It is comparable to a magic wand from the highest-class Relics…… What a terrifying amplification strength…………” (?)

There was a mixture of fear and excitement in Anna’s voice, her assistant. Sage Clusta tapped her forehead with her index finger, knowing that the stories she often heard from Lucia about her brother were no joke.

The main professors of the Magic Academy of Zebrudia were gathered in the auditorium. The restoration of the barriers and the school buildings had not yet been completed, but they had gathered there upon hearing of a new discovery.

A strange staff made entirely of black color was placed in the middle of the auditorium. But it was not just any staff.

Anyone with some knowledge of Magic would have been able to see it without a doubt. The vortex of magic power that the staff gathers from the air――A rare phenomenon that occurs only with the very best wands from a Magi.

An excellent wand converges not only the Magic power of the caster, but also the Magic power floating in the air, and converts it into power to manifest the Magic extremely efficiently.

The staff was made from the ashes of that black world tree that destroyed the Academy without distinction.

I was surprised when I heard that it would be an extremely good catalyst, but I had no idea that it would produce such excellent quality even when used to make a wand…… There was no longer any anger about the destruction of the school building on the faces of the assembled professors.

TL notes:

Thanks for reading! Forgot to post the chapter yesterday…

Looks like we are going to have the aftermath of Strange Grief’s Shisho after what happened with the curses

Is the curse streak finally over or the calm before the storm!?

Tchao à plus!
