It's all one flower.

Lecture in front of the freshly finished Hikaruno sword at the artisan's workshop in Xayetsu.

Is there anything I can cut with my sword?

“There's a bunch of straw for slicing.”

Zayetz, the craftsman of the Star Path, commanded his disciple to bring it to him.

Place a bunch of straw on a wooden table and insert it. It is about the size of four adult arms.

I'm sorry I'm late!

A middle-aged man with a Starlight newspaper coat of arms came in breathlessly. I came by bicycle from the Artel branch office, but it was delayed because it was bypassed by a traffic closure.

"There must have been an extermination." I'm glad you're okay. ”

The reporter was greeted with a lovely smile by Xayetz and was relieved, but wore clothes and cloaks with spells and marks embroidered on them and hardened when he noticed Putnik, who was fully armed and carrying a great sword.

Is there anyone who knows swordsmanship?

Putnik looked around and one of the students raised his hand.

"I learned it when I was a student."

Well then, let's give it a try.

A middle-aged man who raised his hand looked at Zayetz with a pale complexion.

Thank you very much.

Permitted by the Hoshido craftsman, a middle-aged man grabs a brand new sword. After removing the sheath, a blade with a curse mark and powerful words appeared, but nothing in particular happened. Shake gently to determine the weight, and grab the handle with both hands and hold it in front of you.

A reassured reporter takes a video on a tablet.

The sword was wielded with a rippling temper as the workers held their breath and watched. A dull sound cuts the straw bundle diagonally. But more than one-third remained, and there was no amputation.

The man lowered his eyebrows and turned his face to Zayetz apologetically.

"It's not because of the sharpness." It's because I've been groaning for too long and my arm is dull. "

"No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. If you cut Because even if an amateur suddenly cuts, it won't cut this much."

Do you have another one of these?

Asked by Putnik, Zayetz had his disciple bring a new bundle of straw.

A middle-aged man holds a blade and presents a pattern to Putnik.

Next time, you're going to hang up, right?

"No. One more time, you hang up." I grabbed the handle and filled it with magic power. "

Huh?

When Putnik grabbed the handle, the [Magic Crystal], which was inserted into the top of the handle, contained a pale light. All eyes are drawn to the light.

A reporter cut the shutter of the SLR camera.

"You can accumulate magic power here." At this size, it's about half an hour. "

I tried to give the man my sword, but I wouldn't take it until Putnik got close. When the priest who was watching called out, he finally grabbed the handle.

"So, cut it again, please."

The man nodded silently and waved his sword surrounded by the pale light of the [amulet].

The straw bundle was cut without any resistance, and the person who cut it breathed.

After taking a breath, the straw bundle rolled to the floor and the students raised their voiceless voice.

"If the powerful people grasp it, the supply of magic power will continue, so it will keep sharp forever, and it will also prevent miscellaneous fish"

A middle-aged man pulled down his sword and a high metal sound echoed in the workshop.

Come on, if you drop it on your feet, you'll be seriously injured.

When Putnik picked it up, the students leaned against the wall of the workshop.

The only ones left were Putnik, Zayetz, and Priest Reflexio.

Can I ask you to explain the characters engraved on the sword?

Asked by the priest via Zayetz, Putnik called out to the wall.

You can't get away from me like that, can you?

"I'll take it."

When Zayetz took the sword, the Arterians returned in horror.

"You're a powerless people, and you're amazing."

“What will happen?”

Putnik smiled, but Zayetz asked anxiously.

"It's made to trigger the imparting magic." even though I can't confirm it myself

The air froze, but Priest Reflexio urged the interpreter, and Zayetz managed to open his mouth.

Putnik shows the sacred scriptures placed on the workbench with his palm.

"From what I've just seen, what's on there is a technique that adds a magical effect to weapons within the [Flying Hawk (Taka)] school I've mastered." Some weapons can be made by people without power. "

It doesn't matter to the students, they only look at Zayetz and say:

"This part of the blade is an [Amulet] spell." The same spells are embroidered here in my clothes and there in the priest's clothes. "

When the former knight Putnik said that he wanted to see the two clothes with his fingers, Zayetz looked at the clothes with his sword and jumped into the scriptures.

Priests, Zayetz's disciples, and reporters from the Starlight newspaper also encircle the scriptures.

Putnik slowly cast a spell by separating the words of the powerful words one by one, tracing the relevant parts of the scripture with his fingers. A pale pearl light spreads around the surgeon.

"That was the [amulet]." It will last for a while. "

Waiting for Zayetz to translate it into the common language, he translated the spell of powerful words into Hunanese.

"Illuminate the sky around the sun and moon stars, and the void and depressing stars of darkness."

And the sun and the moon and the stars, and all the living, and the heavens and the earth, and the world, and thee.

The Artelians run agitated. Priest Reflexio, who was not yet fully aware of Hunanese, couldn't hide his confusion at the sight of everyone.

"It's a prayer word."

How did the wizard know?

"A word of prayer? I just translated the [Amulet] spell into the common language." Unless you chant magic with powerful words, the effects of magic will not be shown. "

The Arterians who bury the workshop are troubled.

As Zayetz translated, Priest Reflexio nodded with a smile.

“That's the right thing to do.”

Putnik took the chain of the emblem and said with a finger.

"This [Flying Hawk (Taka)] school focuses on protecting those who do not have the power to fight by creating weapons, armor, and spells." You can temporarily create weapons by hardening your magic power, and even turn the surrounding stones into weapons. "

Astonished, the mainland Arterians of Kirkuk are listening.

I'm a materialist now, so I'm hunting beasts around here to get sales while protecting myself with this armor I made myself.

The voice of Zayetz's common language translations quietly flowed into the quiet workshop.

Well, thank you for exterminating the Demon Beast.

Oh, thank you.

"Well, I'm just in business, so don't worry about it." It's hard to survive without magic here. I've been able to stay safe for 30 years. "

Zayetz and his disciples thanked him terrified, and Putnik looked around.

It might be one of the reasons why a lot of demon beasts started to emerge, and the protective magic that was left in the city lapsed.

The Artels looked at Putnik with a stiff expression, but no one said anything.

Priest Reflexio called out again, explaining the remaining spells and marks. There was no prayer word corresponding to [Sharp] and [Tough].
