I Was a Sword When I Reincarnated (WN)

Saying we're headed for the commercial fleet doesn't mean we're stopping by right now. I had to head to Ceftento once and take a fast boat from there.

(Master, Weena Lane is back)

'Right. Do you want me to show my face over there?'

(n)

Signs of Wiener Lane can be felt from the encampment of the School of Magic created next to Seftento.

We decided to keep an interim report on the investigation. Have Robren report to the Adventurer Guild and we'll go back to the camp.

In the tent there was a figure of Weena Lane sitting in a chair somewhat focused. Romeo and Zero Thread seem to be in the next tent.

'Are you doing something? I know magic plays a strange way. "

"There is a Spirit..."

Apparently, he was in communication with the Spirit. Out of the way, maz, it was Fran who tried to turn his heel back, but Weena Lane, with her eyes open on its back, called out.

"Fran. It's okay."

"Are you sure?

"Yeah, 'cause I didn't do a big deal. I was just gathering information from the spirits around me."

I've heard that communicating with spirits is tough for even skilled spiritualists, but it doesn't seem to be a big deal for Weena Lane.

"I heard what you said. You think Lane's in Kiarazen?

"I'm sorry. I couldn't find you"

'I went there again. I just heard rumors that there was a stall where a strange girl was doing it, and I didn't meet Lane.'

After that, we were supposed to report to Wiener Lane about our conversations with Lane so far and how we met.

Thanks to the opening of time, there's nothing disturbing about just hearing Lane's name anymore. Thanks to you, we were able to talk calmly.

First of all, it was when we met at Kiarazen's stall. At first he made us listen by talking about what he only thought was a blind girl, and what he could see until we did.

"... a stall in town?

"Mm-hmm. It was delicious. But why did the Lane of the Spirit do that?

"I want to know that, too."

"You don't even know Weena Lane?

"You don't understand..."

I could see the color of deep distress on Weena Lane's face whining like that. They really don't know why Lane acted.

"True, what are you thinking...... I guess we'll just have to make contact. Well, fine. Let me hear more."

"Mmm."

Wiener Lane prompted me to tell you the next time we meet Lane again. The sudden appearance and the content of the advice taught to Lane.

"Does Lane really have the power to see the future?

"Yeah, definitely. Besides, the Spirit does not lie, unless it is commanded by the covenant. It's a little special in that kid's case... I don't think you're lying."

'Then if my spirit fits the sword, Fran will have a tragedy...?

"That's what's gonna happen."

"Hey, what do you think I should do?

It's someone who's been alive for thousands of years. Maybe you can get some advice.

Honestly, I wasn't expecting that much, but Weena Lane started thinking with her hands on her chin.

"Hmmm...... That's a tough question. First of all, the master doesn't want to go crazy. But to be without madness, you have to conform to the sword"

"Oh."

"But if it fits the sword, it loses things like people's emotions. Besides, there could be some kind of tragedy coming to Fran"

"That's right."

"I mean, you have to keep people's hearts and minds while conforming to the sword so they don't go crazy."

'Do you think it's possible?

To my inquiry, Weena Lane thinks.

"... right. I have met Intelligence Weapon several times in the past. But it was more or less crazy. There were just a couple of different ways to go crazy."

"Type?"

"One is a state where words and deeds are disjointed and manic depression is intense. Well, maybe this is the type of thing that comes to mind with the word crazy. What we have in common is that we hate the body of our swords and are tired of living as swords. I guess my self as a person couldn't accept the body of the sword."

So did Fanatics. The type who doesn't know what to serve next.

"Next, the type that doesn't seem like a very thought-provoking weapon, doesn't make you feel your mind. Wouldn't it be awesome if we took all our hearts and emotions away from humans and put in the ability to just answer them?

Do you mean the type like a machine?

"Of course, it's not uncommon if you're an artificially created being. A golem with a conversation function is something like that. But if the existence that was originally human sealed or transcribed the spirit became so, I think I can say it's already crazy"

Mr. Annunciation, originally created as such, is therefore not said to be insane. Because that's normal.

But if I become like Mr. Annunciation, I'm sure it's crazy.

'The former, if the consciousness as a human being is too strong. Failure to conform to the sword, go mad. And the latter, if the adaptation to the sword goes too far'

"I think so."

I was on the verge of becoming the latter. And I don't realize it myself. Horrible.

"So the existence of the only non-crazy intelligence wepon I've ever met becomes important. Now I think, swords and people. You must have maintained a balance of spirit between the two sides."

"How could that sword not have gone mad?

"... this is not a definite reason. Still, suppose there was something different about her than the other swords, a bond with the user?

According to Wienerlane, the insane swords crossed the hands of various users and were treated as powerful and rare swords.

However, it seems that the sword, which is the exception, has been used by the same user ever since it was created, forming a relationship like a partner with that user.

"It's a sword, it's a person. I was proud and receptive to myself like that. I think that supported her spirit."

"I see..."

Is it a bond with the user? I just wonder what exactly to do. Should I communicate more with Fran?

But Fran laughed with relief at me elsewhere.

"Then the master will be fine"

'Huh?'

"Because we're the best combination"

"Fran......"

"So the master is fine"

Fran is not speaking of comfort or hopeful observation, and he really seems to think so. I'm laughing, just saying that this problem is okay anymore.

Seeing that, I could see that the anxiety that dominated me without knowing it disappeared beautifully. If you're with Fran, I'm fine. No anxiety whatsoever, it seemed so.

"If you're frightened that you might go mad, that could trigger a breakdown in your mental equilibrium. I think I should be as optimistic as Fran, too, right? Maybe there's not a perfect way to deal with it, and it's important that you stay aware of it?

"... right"

"Mmm!"

"By the time you guys start to understand your problems and scratch your feet trying to do something about them, the future will be changing dramatically. That's what Lane told you, the ruin may have already been averted"

"If we don't do anything like this, we're likely to visit, the result in the name of the future," Lane said. Indeed, by the time we understood the problem, the future might have changed.

'But I don't know if that's how we're avoiding the tragedy. In the first place, I don't even know when it's coming. "

Whatever makes me crazy and not crazy, what's a tragedy? From Lane's words, he seemed to visit most recently. However, the sense of time of a long living being is often different from ours.

There's no denying that 10 or 20 years for us could be about a day or two for Lane.

"Hey, where's that non-crazy intelligence wepon?

I don't know if I'll make it to the tragedy Lane told me, but if I met him, he could have been a hint of something.

"Right. If they find out what caused this lake's anomaly, I'll tell you. What do you say?"

Me and Fran don't think it stinks. That's all it's worth. Besides, it's information that has nothing to do with this anomaly. Weena Lane had no in-laws to teach it for nothing.

"Absolutely, keep up the cause of the anomaly!

"Ooh."

Fran was serious about the investigation so far. But I wouldn't have been stuffed with chopped feathers. At the request of my current employer, Weena Lane, I will do everything I can. It was like that.

But now this case has become one in which we are actively involved. Fran's motivation is visibly different.

"I asked for it."

"Mmm!"
