Sword of the Philosopher

Experience and technology

I am convinced that Eirad cannot win in terms of magic. So what you use to defeat Sophia would be the technology backed by the thickness of your experience.

As a Sofia, you should also consider it risky to counter it in terms of skill. I thought it would be a clash of powers and moves.

The two clash straight. A tall metal sound and a look at Sophia pushing back.

She sets up an immediate pursuit. Eirad only flushes to identify his movements as he retreats.

Is that a counter aim? Then Sophia reads it too or interrupts the chase. The two stop at a distance.

"... and well, with less magic, I'm finally going to be able to relay it this way"

I started talking abruptly...... was it pretty hard right now?

"But you've been doing a lot for what you look like, haven't you?

"... sure, you didn't seem to be able to afford it"

Sophia reinforces the degree of vigilance. Then Eirad broke down,

"Lady."

"... it's Sophia"

"Oh, I'm sorry. It feels like you've seen the sword, and you've been dealing with more demons than humans."

"Do you understand?

"Well, there's a lot of difference in movement between the guy who fought all humans and the guy who kept hunting all demons. Not that I'd prefer it."

... I trained not to die, too, so I'd fall into the type of just demons, just like Sophia.

"I don't know, it's troubling when they tell me to show the difference clearly... well, anyway, there's a difference"

"You mean use the difference to attack?

"I'm talking about some ways to do that. If that's all the difference in power, it's tough to poke it."

Still pessimistic words. Somehow, you're just talking about lowering yourself.

"We're gonna end up without a good place like this, Eirad."

When Anastasia turned her words, he nodded, just saying yes.

"Yeah, you are"

"Admit it. What do you do? There's nothing left for me to cut off, and there's no standing for me."

"Well, like I said, there's a way to do it"

Oh, I thought you were going to move that to execution... and Sophia ran out of the way.

Set it up first - then let the sword wind it up. That's "The Sword of Disease" from the junior demon guide.

At the time we met, she still had power, but now it becomes a terrible power.

"Wow, that's amazing"

Eirad responded with a sword, even leaking an exclamation. The moment both blades touch, the wind blows through and breaks the body of the old swordsman greatly.

Instead of tapping into the kende, I guess there was an intention to seal his move - Sophia just goes forward. It should be a decision that if you push in with force through magic enhancement, you can defeat it.

However,

"- Huh."

Short voice. Eirad turns to fight back. Quickly bouncing back the sword, it unleashes a slash. A far sharper move than earlier...... but Sophia also reacted, shielding the sword to prevent it.

"Oh, I didn't know you were going to change that."

Eirad surprises me. There Sophia stepped forward. It's a definite blow - a 'fresh stream flash'.

Definitely powerful enough, this blow alone can compete if you suck... that's what I was thinking, Eirad reacts.

I pressed her sword hard, trying to make a mistake. As a result, Sophia's movements stop.

"It does move well and has enough magic on it again. If we hit it right, we'll have a fight."

Eirad said that, then tried to fight back again - she retreated.

"But there's only one problem. Your moves and magic currents are something I've seen before. So was the wind sword earlier, and so is yours now."

"... you mean you are deciding what kind of move and dealing with it?

When Sophia asked, Eirad nodded.

"It doesn't change the nature of the moves, even if there is something wrong with the individual. In other words, determine what comes the moment you move, identify it and turn it back into a counterattack"

That's it, Eirad shrugged his shoulder.

"When you're about me, you can use it because you have a lot of knowledge. An earlier sword that strikes in the wrong direction can blunt the movement if you catch the timing. In fact, you interrupted the attack because the sword didn't go as far as you think, did you?

- That knowledge could be a threat to the enemy.

I see. You mean instantly cut off the opponent's moves and fight back, etc. When this happens, it will attack you as Sofia. Then the next thing you know...

"So, how about this?

Sophia can immerse herself in magic... momentarily, she felt great magic in her sword.

This is...

"You're a magic you've never felt. Are you Innovative?

"No, it's just an original move."

When Sophia answered his question, she reassembled her sword.

You definitely used Spirit World. There's just less magic in convergence than I thought. I'm sure you're being modest...... or if you really do it, Eirad will disappear.

"By the way, is that for real?

"No, I'm losing a lot of strength"

Nevertheless...... it would be harder to read the next hand than Eirad is a special magic that I don't remember. Sofia just has problems too.

Originally "Spirit World" was a great move to work with the contracted spirits and unleash a blow. Since there is not a mould in motion, Sophia's judgment dramatically alters the orbit of the attack.

What we call moves, which also existed in the game, is somewhat determined by the type of movement, but not in her "Spirit World". From that point of view, this move can also be regarded as incomplete.

"A move without a mould also has its drawbacks. Normal moves allow us to study different and efficient ways of doing things based on moulds, but individual moves don't... I mean, I guess it's not finished yet"

When Eirad speaks of reasoning, he regains his sword once.

"There are other things that really create gaps. There's a gap between what's going on beyond being a major move, but the original move becomes particularly noticeable. In your case right now, it seems difficult to expect that."

Eirad talks as he looks at Sophia's sword.

"By the way, do you elevate that move to creativity?

"I haven't decided yet..."

"Even though it's adding and subtracting, it's definitely quite powerful. It wouldn't be a bad idea to employ it, as long as you're aware of the control side"

"I didn't know you'd even give me advice"

Speaking as Anastasia was impressed, Eirad showed things like, oh man.

"If she is an important force in defeating Nehmeisa, it would be natural to teach her, wouldn't it?

"Well, let's keep it that way"

Laughing Anastasia. Eirado, who sees it, turns his gaze back on Sophia.

"Eat that properly...... no, it would be pretty bad to flush it"

"Then what do you do?

"... I wonder if I have to answer this one."

At the moment of the word, there was magic in Eirad's fullness - he also seemed to use Innovation.

"Ma, developing what can be called Innovation is effective in crushing enemies. Let me show you all I can do. Reference me..."
