028. Spirit Sword (5)
‘It’s warm.’
Arwen’s feelings, holding her light in her hand, are simple. Warmth.
That whitish lump of light now filled Arwen’s field of vision. Neither the man in black right in front of him, nor Veris watching the duel from a distance, nor the backyard of the mansion, nor the blue sky were visible.
It is true that I was surprised by what suddenly happened. However, thanks to that feeling that was so warm that she couldn’t express it in words, Arwen was reminded of a cozy feeling.
[ She is a pretty child. ]
[ Really! In addition, the spirit sensitivity is very high! ]
[ But it looks dangerous. ]
[Let’s protect it! ]
“…… Uh?”
I heard a small voice.
There are only four people in this space, from Veris to Arwen, but there are far more voices than that. What does that mean?
[ Go away! ]
─ Flashing!
The halo immediately changed direction and flew towards the heretic inquisitor wielding a scythe right in front of him. And soon, an amazing sight unfolded.
─ Boom!
“What, what?”
The Heretic Inquisitor, who had been charging at me with a mean laugh, flew away.
He had a blank face, as if he didn’t understand what was happening to him.
[ Honey. ]
“Yes?”
[ We will help you. ]
“…… How?”
[ Can you hear us? ]
[ His sensitivity is so high. ]
[ Is that so? ]
“Who are you?”
[ We are spirits. An existence that embraces the sea and land that support the world, and even the lofty expanse. ]
A spirit, a spirit.
At their voices that were more surprising than expected, Arwen stared blankly at the lights. She is in fact the one she never even thought about because they are living beings. She thought it was just a magical phenomenon flying through the air, but it was a spirit.
‘Spirit… ….’
It is said that in the old days, elves ruled over the spirits and fought with their power in their swords. However, the elf’s desire grew day by day, and she heard that the spirits had disappeared for over a thousand years thanks to the destruction of the ecosystem, so how did they appear in front of her?
[ Your heart misses the person you like. I really liked it. ]
It is an elegant voice. However, the spirits with children’s voices, which were not suitable for him, gradually became closer to Arwen.
[ It’s a cute kid. Won’t you make a contract with us? ]
“A contract?”
[ Yes! Isn’t this an opportunity for anyone to get? ]
A contract with the spirits. Arwen, who knew what that meant, immediately remembered a person.
Yes, it’s the best way to stand by him. It was clear that he would have a different power than before if he was with the spirit.
“…… I want to contract.”
[ Cook Cook. Well thought out! ]
From noble mtl dot com
[ Aren’t you too fearless? Either we are the minions of a bad-tempered demon or… …. ]
[ Noisy! ]
─Sareung.
Along with the voices of the fighting spirits, Arwen’s vision brightened.
In her eyes was the Heretic Inquisitor, who was still staring blankly at Arwen, but he seemed unwilling to attack again.
“That…… What is it?”
“What are you talking about?”
“How did the level of power suddenly felt so high?”
Arwen raised her hand and opened and closed her dainty fist, in shock at his suspicious glance.
‘Ah.’
It is a distinctly different power. He had just signed a contract with the spirits with the spirit of the word, but even the power felt in his grip was distinctly different from just a moment ago.
Even she can’t figure out what the hell is going on. I just answered the voice of the light that suddenly appeared…….
“The sword… ….”
The sword she held had a strange feeling to it.
It’s hot like fire. It’s cold as ice. Hard as the ground sharp as the wind In addition to that, innumerable complex senses were emanating from her sword.
“The spirit sword.”
Seeing Arwen like that, Veris nodded her head.
To be honest, I didn’t ask Arwender to train or duel to get the spirit sword. However, that genius elf blossomed his abilities anew in this situation.
The Spirit Sword is literally the mysterious power of the Elves that only appears in legends. Since Arwen got it, it must be something to celebrate.
“Wow… ….”
A brilliant light of five colors hovered around Arwen.
That unstable form soon became more stable as time passed. Moreover, as her sense of security grew, the power of the spirit radiating from her sword grew stronger, so it was only natural that the heretic inquisitor’s face would rot.
“Damn it.”
Perhaps it was because he knew that he had awakened an elf with his own hands?
The Heretic Questioner frowned.
Anyway, he was in a bad mood because he was faced with the reality of training tools. But in the end, seeing the elf gain new power so easily in front of him, her heart felt empty.
“Come.”
Seeing Arwen’s proud appearance, the heretic inquisitor raised her scythe and glared at her.
It was a battle with a difference in strength that could not be ignored. However, he thought that even if he had awakened to a new level, he would not be able to easily defeat the elves.
Awkward.
Raising her sword, Arwen looked straight at her opponent.
A sense of ecstasy was overflowing, full of energy. At this rate, even that large scythe could be cut without difficulty.
“Hot!”
With her short cry, Arwen started to run towards the heretic inquisitor.
This is the first time in this duel. The figure of Arwen moving forward with five brilliant colors had a beautiful atmosphere like a painting.
—Quooooo!
“I am the Heretic Inquisitor of the Holy Kingdom! Never fall without God’s permission!”
On the other hand, the Heretic Questioner was not a great man to suffer from Arwen’s appearance. The divine mana that the priests of the holy kingdom boast of gushed out steadily, covering him like an armor.
It is hard and sturdy. The heretic inquisitor, fully understanding the characteristics of divine mana, blocked Arwen like a mountain.
─Suddenly!
“Eh?”
“What?”
But…… Things went more absurdly than he thought.
It was a situation where his huge scythe, filled with golden mana, was cut in half with Arwen’s single stroke.
“This, this is the scythe of judgment bestowed by the Holy Father…….”
“Tsk tsk. It must have been bad.”
Puffed up.
It was an absurdly simple result. But thanks to that, the Heretic Questioner was on his knees and weeping as he looked at his favorite bottle that had been cut in two.
* * *
“Are these the children?”
“Yes. Even now, I am sitting on Veris-sama’s shoulder.”
“I can see a faint light, but I can’t see the shape clearly.”
Arwen, who had an amazing experience, now began to see the shapes of the spirits accurately.
A palm-sized fire lizard, a bird resembling a drop of water, a flying squirrel with a wagging tail, and so on…….
After the duel was over, they introduced themselves as ‘lower spirits’. Their mission is to take charge of the most basic tasks in the spirit realm that exists on the other side of the world.
However, what surprised Arwen was the fact that Veris, whom they declared to be insensitive to spirits, was very popular with them. Look at it now Aren’t those cute little animals rubbing their heads next to Veris?
[ Smells nice. ]
[ It’s new and thrilling. ]
At that, Arwen couldn’t help but smile. Obviously, the contractor was himself, but when I saw the spirits, he seemed to like Veris more.
“Huh. I want to see the spirits too.”
“I heard that only good kids can see it?”
“Lies! Is that a lie?”
Of course, not everyone felt the energy of the spirits. Right now, even Cecilia was unable to grasp the appearance of the spirits.
No, in a way, it was more appropriate to see Veris as a strange case. The spirits themselves said that Veris had no spirit sensitivity, but he was already aware of the existence of spirits.
“Then it’s Arwen, the elven swordsman, not Arwen, the spirit sword?”
“…… It’s embarrassing.”
“Why are you shy? It is something to be proud of and proud of.”
Arwen nodded to Veris’ determined voice.
I was in a situation where I was at my limit. In an emergency situation that just reminded her of Veris standing near her, her spirits came to her first and helped her, so it was literally her luck.
The only good thing is that the spirits really like Arwen and Veris?
“The amazing thing is that you can barely hear what they say. What’s new before? I think I heard something like that.”
“…… That is truly amazing.”
Arwen was genuinely impressed.
Even if you look around the world, there are only a handful of classes called elementalists. That’s why it’s common knowledge that seeing, touching, or making a contract with a spirit at the end of it is unreasonable if you don’t have empathy, but Veris was showing an eccentricity that shattered that common sense.
[ Hey, he’s a handsome boy. Aren’t you Seeing what our contractor thinks every time he sees you……. ]
“Huh!”
“…… ?”
“Why is that? Arwen?”
“…… What a hot day.”
“Hot? It’s still spring in full swing.”
Arwen shook his head at Veris’ words. Before long, she freed the flying squirrel from Veris’ shoulder with her merciless touch.
[ No way! Being honest is not a sin! ]
And Arwen hurried to her kitchen.
Perhaps the spirits could read the contractor’s thoughts at least a little, Arwen felt her heart sink as the flying squirrel casually tried to spit out a bomb remark.
‘What should I do?’
The spirits were said to be able to survive on their own without sleep or food. If she asks, she won’t talk nonsense, but each spirit has its own personality.
She was an Arwen who naturally got into trouble when she thought about it that far.
At first, I hurriedly took this flying squirrel away, but I wonder if the other spirits are still saying strange things.
“Why the hell… ….”
Arwen was crying.
The Veris she knew was an excellent, yet too outstanding man. Think common sense. Is it a situation where it makes sense for a person who has no spirit sensitivity to be conscious of the existence of spirits and listen to their voices?
