Chapter 219 Sword Transformation: Silver Rapier Form
Between the cheers of the crowd, a black-haired beauty could be seen looking at a boy in the area where participants stood. There was a hint of surprise in her eyes while her face was still cold; she was looking at the boy with enchanting purple eyes.
She sighed in relief when she realized that nothing had happened to him; she didn’t want to hurt him, but sometimes her instincts overtook her thoughts. In fact, she was not to blame here; it was that idiot’s mistake to try to use a skill to probe her cultivation.
She was always on guard against such people. At first, she was enraged and was about to lose control. When she saw that the culprit was just a kid, someone even younger than her, this changed the whole situation. She couldn’t stop the already-launched killing intent; all she did was try to conceal it and reduce its effect.
She was concerned about the boy but was confident that at most he would faint and it would be a good lesson for him; he would not die prematurely at the hands of others; but what happened next surprised her. His enchanting purple eyes shone in a golden glow before becoming normal. This result was something she never expected, the guy was able to resist her intent, but that was not all; she saw him smirking and turning his head towards her.
Their eyes met; they looked at each other, trying to probe each other, and they stared at each other for a second before Yashika turned her head and decided to focus on the stage.𝓷𝒪𝑽𝐄𝓵𝓃𝑒xt.𝑐𝑜𝔪
Rishi, who was sweating profoundly, sighed when he saw her ignoring him. He had seen her eyes and didn’t find any hatred in them. Her face was unchanged, but what made him feel safe were her sharp eyes, which had a hint of surprise in them when they tried to inspect him.
He was feeling a little dizzy, but the pain was starting to subside little by little. He was lucky that even in this difficult situation, he was able to improve and learn something new.
He had awakened his will; It was a very big hurdle for many warriors. They need a strong resolve and a lot of time to awaken their will. Thanks to my meeting the higher-level spiritual beings, I have finally awakened my will.
This has opened a whole new path for my future with many possibilities, There is a common saying that ‘where there is a will, there is a way.’
All he needs to do now is cultivate his will. He will also need to try to comprehend intent. For starters, he could try learning ‘killing intent,’ which is easier to learn but harder to master. Even without a will, a madman with the intent to kill can make anyone feel scared.
I will think about intent later; for now, I should focus on my foundation. Although I have many unique skills, I have a legendary class and an exceptional sword aura. I am still not able to use them all to their full potential. It’s all due to getting them so fast and having very little time to master them.
It’s like having a dull sword made of Mithril; no matter how hard you swing, you will never be able to make good use of it. A sword needs to have a sharp edge; without an edge, it is even inferior to a well-made steel sword. Similarly, having stronger techniques and job classes gives you an advantage over others. It’s like having a strong metal, but you will never be able to cut through and defeat enemies with it until you refine it by beating, till it turns into a fine sword.
The mastery of the techniques is as important as the edge to a sword; with a sharp edge, even a sword made up of weaker metal can become a ferocious force, while similarly, without a sharp edge, even a sword made up of rare materials can become useless.
He shook his head. ‘It’s not time to think about these things; I should focus on the competition.’ In between the cheers of the crowd, his eyes fell on the silver-colored snake-like creature that was slowly moving toward the Sword Formation. In the meantime, it had already covered the distance and was already in front of the Sword Formation.
It stood on its tail and carefully stretched its head; its tail folded on the ground in some weird knots, while its head and back were straight. It hissed, and its silver scales shone in a white glow. Its head moved back a little, and a small tip of a sword became visible in place of its tongue.
Everyone was confused; this doesn’t look like a sword at all. Is this the final transformation? The creature moved towards the ground and staggered it with the sharp pointy blade in his mouth. The blade got stuck, and the creature moved his tail, tied in strange knots, and again stood straight with the support of its head.
Some children clapped; for them, this creature was showing tricks, while others were unimpressed. It was then that the beast’s eyes shone in a light blue glow, and its mouth started sliding upward, increasing the distance from the ground. A sharp and straight blade appeared.
In the blink of an eye, the head moved a meter above the ground, revealing a cold, thin blade. The tail tied in the knot twisted and transformed. A blinding silver light flashed, and what appeared next was a piece of art: a silver-colored rapier appeared with a light blue lade. Its handle had snake patterns as if a real snake had been used instead of carving; even Rishi was in awe when he looked at this transformation.
‘Swish’ The sword made a sound before it jumped and appeared on the inner part of the sword formation. The sword formation was like a trap; the deeper you go, the harder it will be to continue. It was divided into three regions, each having more swords; the three layers were: outer, middle, and inner.
The silver-colored Saber was able to move to the inner region due to its penetration power. When it tried to move to the core, it felt a very strong resistance. The pressure it felt shook its body, and its body started to bend. That was when its master interjected, “Stop, start from there.”
The silver-colored rapier radiated a silver hue and started to move as many swords as it could. The swords around it started shaking and shone in a dim white glow. Many swords shook, and the vibrations forced people to close their ears. The rapier stopped after it was done.
