Episode 60: Protecting the New Adventurer Lent and the Divine Spirit

Of course, this is not the end of the trial.

In the first place, I asked Clope to create a sword that could withstand all of the magic, chi, and holy chi.

Unless you try any of them, you can't say you did.

Crope knows that, too, and he's replacing the wooden doll he's cut down now with something else.

And when it was over, I started putting magic into my sword.

Because magic and mindfulness are the most standard ways to fight swordsmen.

Even so, I can't use magic that complicated.

I know a lot of theories, and with my training, I can wrap flames and other attributes around my sword, but I don't know how.

I just pour magic into my power.

But it is the power that says magic that will give you enough power to do just that.

The sword infused with magic gives you more cutting and endurance, and the hard ones also give you the power to cut off properly.

When I shook up my sword to try and shook it down to a wooden doll, it cut a lot easier than it did earlier.

This cleavage is staggering when it comes to putting little effort into it.

There is no blade spill on the sword, and when you look at the cross section of the doll again, it is smooth when it sticks.

Excellent, that would be a word.

Now you'll be deep in the labyrinth, and you'll be able to do enough with the demons of the rock lineage.

Next, chi.

Again, the doll can be replaced.

I didn't particularly exchange words with Crope, but I can tell from that area no longer.

We've been dating for ten years.

Drain the magic that was pouring on your sword, and now fill it with the power of your mind.

The power of chi, basically the same as magic, has the effect of increasing the sharpness, endurance of the sword, but there are a number of other phenomena that can be caused by good handling of chi.

I wave my sword, I wave it down to the doll.

And the moment the sword entered as far as the doll, it freed the power of the mind that was put in the sword.

Then, instead of cutting the doll into two pieces, as earlier, it burst from the inside and splattered.

This is one of the things that can happen with the power of your mind, because it is supposedly more destructive than magical.

Magic is more user-friendly and has a dexterity that allows you to wrap attributes around them and make enemies vulnerable, but there are several techniques that you care about that purely destroy enemies.

This is the difference between the two, and both are reasons for being treasured.

As far as I'm concerned, I feel like dealing with the slime system, but I think it's magic to deal with goblins, pig ghosts Oak, etc., but there's also a preference problem around here.

That's just what I think.

Finally, it is holy chi.

There is something more special about this than the other two, and not much detail has been revealed.

Because basically it's the clergy who can use it, and they rarely explain that detail about their own power or anything.

Besides, a saintly swordsman is a selection that is also the face of each religious organization typical of the Sacred Knight and so on, few in number and few opportunities for ordinary people to be involved.

There was little or no way of knowing the details of the technology.

Well, nevertheless, I know as much as that is the basic way to focus your sacred attention on the sword.

Because Holy Qi is only said to be a power given by God or the Spirit, and although its use is somehow, it doesn't have to be explained to someone to know.

It's just that I don't have a way of knowing that there will be some knowledge that has been researched and systematized for a long time.

Anyway, pour holy attention to the sword.

If it is a normal weapon, the question arises first and foremost whether it cannot be broken by paying attention to holiness.

It is the power to disgrace and to restore existence to its normal state.

The sword forged by the secret art of alchemy is broken through its magical bond by holy temper, so that the power to force it back to its original ore will work.

It is the job of a well-armed blacksmith not to do so, because only a leading blacksmith can make a weapon that endures holy temper.

Crope definitely has first-rate arms in that sense.

It's just wrapped in thin, blurry light, not to be afraid of the sacraments I poured.

I swung it up and cut it up against the replaced-tree doll again.

The feeling is less resistant than when you use magic or care.

After all, it's just a power given by God and the Spirit, and it seems like an excellent power.

But in addition to that, it seems to come with a strange effect...

"... hey, something's growing up"

And I said that when I saw the cross section of the tree where the clope was cut off.

I try to get closer too, and I do see some pimples and buds stretching from there.

Does that mean it was also the effect of the resilience increase caused by the power of the Sacred Qi?

I don't know.

"... something else, is there?

"No, you've never seen it. However, it seems that sacred temperament can have quite different effects depending on the existence it gives...... When did you get your sanctity?

"Instead, the dust that has been nodded upon, it is very occasional."

"Heh. You're acting very faithful again, aren't you?

"In the basket, there was no fumbling. It's a mess."

In fact, I simply didn't like that they were left somewhat overthrown after I was free.

Well, that's why I usually go through a few days to fix it, for God's sake, nobody will.

That's why they remained overthrown. That shrine.

Clope continues.

"Well, for a good reason. Anyway, you got sanctified by the existence that was celebrated in that temple, didn't you?

"Ah."

"Suppose... maybe it was a botanical spirit or something that was being festived. That's why your sanctity has this effect. The Virgin who had come to Malt before had the protection of a healing god, so she also cured minor illnesses just by touching them. That would be the botanical version of it."

Surely that was an understandable story.

I also remember seeing that Virgin only for a moment from a distance, but I remember feeling somewhat better with that alone.

That was the strength of the being that gave it protection and the effect based on its nature, I suppose.

I remember reading about that in some book.

So in my case, it has a strong effect on plants...

I don't really feel like I could use it for anything.

If that's what you think, Claude,

"This bud could be holy if it grows. Can I have it?

That's what I've been asking.

"It doesn't matter... it could just happen."

"That's all right. It's just a hobby. If it works, you might be able to get the material to stay in the Holy Spirit, and even if it doesn't, it's definitely something rare. I haven't heard about plant-based gods and spirits lately."

Since sometime, I hear that people no longer have much protection from plant gods and spirits.

As a result, we are not very good friends with the woodland people's elves.

There used to be times when they were more intertwined......

Well, that's okay.

But when I look at the clope thinking you like to grow something like this, I already take a slice of the wooden doll towards the edge of the courtyard and install it and make it look in a good mood.

If you look closely, there were several other pots and it really seemed like a hobby to grow plants.

With that face, that hobby?

I'd like to say that, but I'm in a good mood, so I decide not to.

And then the clope came back and told me,

"This will be more or less good. You want me to leave the trials like this?

I asked, so I think a little.

Then there was one thing that came to mind, so I told Crope.

"... make-believe, put everything together, this sword very much, okay?
