181 – 174.Water knows the answer-4

“Then, the recent tidal waves and torrents are not the fault of Mr. Hukeados?”

“Yes, why would I do such a troublesome thing when I am having fun every day in a nest without a fussy daughter?”

“I guess you enjoyed being away so much?”

“Cancer! Ever since you left the nest, the sea water has been sweet and not salty. So, I wondered if I would have been drinking honey for about 100 years, but since I had already returned, I was anxious and came to see you.”

Awesome!

Cestia strained her facial muscles by biting her molars.

I lifted up a wooden pole that washed up on the beach from the sea.

I hurriedly grabbed her arms and stopped her from trying to take down her father’s head with a mast.

Even in front of her daughter, who was struggling to kill herself, the blue dragon just smiled happily.

Her daughter was so genius that she wondered if she was possessed by a vengeful spirit who died without being able to heal her daughter.

“Anyway, the abnormal phenomena occurring in the surrounding waters are not my fault.”

“I see.”

“You are surprisingly easy to understand. Why don’t you ask more questions?”

“I didn’t come here to solve an anomaly. I was just asking to satisfy my personal curiosity.”

“You mean you came here for something else?”

“Yes.”

My goal is the demonic sword that the blue dragon, Fukeados, possessed.

I couldn’t see it right now, but it must be in the nest.

I intend to obtain that demonic sword by any means necessary.

It won’t be easy, but we’ve already devised dozens of strategies.

Among the many strategies, at least one would pass and you would be able to get your hands on the demonic sword.

“I want the demonic sword that Hukeados-sama has.”

“A demonic sword? Are you talking about this?”

Huke Addos stretched out his hand towards the sea.

Then a sword came out of the sea and wrapped itself in his grasp.

Befitting a dragon, it seems to have special abilities such as emptiness.

‘How is it?’

[Aura that is identical to this body, it is definitely a demonic sword.]

Activation is over.

Now was the time to play your tongue hard against the blue dragon.

“This is the magic sword I wanted. Because I need it… !”

“It’s old, take it.”

“Eh?!”

Hukeados threw the demonic sword at me with a nonchalant expression.

I managed to accept the sword even though I was flustered by the unexpected situation.

“Lord, are you giving?”

“Didn’t I say it was necessary?”

“That’s true, but is it okay to give it away for free like this…?” ….”

“From now on, there will be long days when I will have to live under the butt of my daughter who has a bad temper. I give it to you in the sense of cheering up.”

“This goddamn father will go all the way!”

“Ha ha ha!”

With her furious screams, Sestia grabbed her father by the neck and began to choke him with all his might.

Even so, Hukeados didn’t show any resistance and just laughed excitedly.

In the sense of spending a harmonious time with family, I looked at the magic sword handed over to me while cutting my nerves.

She put the demonic sword she wanted into her hand, but felt strangely uncomfortable.

I don’t know if it’s because all the plans I’ve been preparing have become useless.

I wonder if the fact that the deep sympathy emanating from the demonic sword created bitterness.

‘Rather than that, what kind of demonic sword is this?’

[This is a demon sword of predation.]

‘Predation?’

[Among the divided demonic swords, this one is of the worst quality. Literally, he gobbles up everything around him until he is full. If he can’t fill his satiety, he will go out of control and throw up a disaster that vomits up the material he ate.]

‘Isn’t that too dangerous?’

[Fortunately, it doesn’t seem to have spread disasters because it was in the sea.]

The sea is wide and the end of its depth is unknown.

Even if the demonic sword of predation was a glutton, the sea wouldn’t dry up or disappear.

It may have been fortunate that the demonic sword had been in the sea all this time.

‘Is it okay to absorb a high-risk demon sword?’

[You don’t have to worry too much. If this body absorbs it, the tricky disadvantage of predation will naturally disappear. Only his ability is inherited.]

‘Then what… ….’

I took Prach out of the scabbard and faced the demonic sword of predation.

As always, the demonic swords were entangled and merging like liquid.

Soon after the fusion ended, the demonic sword was placed on my palm.

The shape of the sword was the same as the existing Prach, but one more stroke was drawn on the runes engraved on the blade.

I don’t know how to read runes, much less interpret them, but I felt more hideous than before.

[It’s a demonic sword that has preserved its power for a long time, so it’s not bad!]

‘That’s fortunate.’

[However, the concept of hunger, which did not exist in this body, was born.]

‘…… Didn’t you boast earlier that your tricky flaws would disappear?’

As I stared at Prach with her eyes slightly closed, she trembled.

[This was a mistake of the body. When I thought about it, the ability of predation itself was a power that could not be exercised without the concept of hunger.]

‘What kind of ability is that?’

[A sight is worth a thousand words. Soak this body in the sea for a while.]

As Prach said, I thrust the tip of my sword into the seawater.

However, the incident did not happen right away.

When the sword was dipped a couple of times in the rushing waves, a translucent light suddenly came into Prach’s runes.

At the same time, the calm waves began to stir.

[Do not be shaken, stay still.]

The seawater that rose like a whirlwind was sucked in toward Rune.

The rune of Prach, which was absorbing the seawater, was gradually dyed blue.

As time passed and the sea calmed down, the color of the rune completely changed to deep blue.

[The predation is complete.]

‘Huh? Is that all?’

[Of course, if this was the end, this body wouldn’t have stood out proudly! Lift up this body and wield it freely!]

I pulled out the plach and lightly squeezed it.

Despite absorbing a large amount of sea water, the sword did not become unusually heavy.

The moment he drew his sword with a light heart, seeing this as a miracle.

“Wow?!”

A glamorous yet ferocious blue sword slashed the sea in an instant.

On the other hand, in the past, after gathering strength, he would wield his sword with all his might to express his sword skills.

This time, even though I swung the sword without exerting any force, the sword was created.

Moreover, it was a sword with the nature of seawater that Prach had absorbed.

[How are you?]

‘Amazing. I never thought the sword skill would come out so easily…….’

[Not only that. If certain conditions are met, you can absorb the opponent’s power and return it back! And that is forever!]

‘Permanent? Does that mean you can continue to use that power once the absorption is over?’

[Of course.]

It wasn’t about temporarily borrowing power.

This means that you can permanently store the enemy’s power and use it whenever you want.

It was a level of power that maximized the diversity of strategies.

‘That’s interesting. Then what is the condition you just mentioned?’

[Satiation means eating until you are full. If you want to keep the power permanently, there is a precondition that you must absorb it until the body’s hunger disappears.]

Even simply immersing the prach in seawater and sucking it in took quite a bit of time.

In other words, in order to use the opponent’s power, it is necessary to fight for a long time.

The conditions were somewhat difficult, but considering the reward, it was well worth the effort.

‘What is the limit of absorption?’

[I guess it doesn’t exist at the moment. Even if it is level 8 magic, it can be absorbed!]

‘Ay! That’s too much of a leap.’

[You can test whether it is an elixir or not.]

‘Okay, let’s go back and do that later.’

Even if it’s not an enemy, I can take out the power I put in and use it.

In other words, she will prepare her assortment on her own, even if I don’t have to use elemental magic myself whenever I need it.

Prach was becoming a versatile demonic sword as time passed.

Now it seems that there really isn’t much left until the day of the decisive battle.

“Did you get what you wanted?”

“Yes, as you can see.”

He raised his sharpened sword and showed it.

Even if it’s not perfect yet, any famous sword or artifact will fall short compared to Prach.

I felt so proud that I did not doubt that.

Looking at Prach’s luxurious abilities, it proved that his hard work was not in vain.

Even though there is still a long way to go, there will be confidence that one day you will be proud of the completed Prach and howl for victory.

“Can I take a look?”

“As much as you like.”

I pushed Prah out toward Sestia.

She meant to see me holding her sword instead of handing it over to her.

Since Sestia knew that, she was looking at Prach from various angles.

It was then that her hand touched the blade to touch it.

“What?”

“Why? Is there something wrong?!”

Cestia, suddenly startled, was sweeping her own lower abdomen.

Did Prach’s magic have a bad influence on Sestia?

I had been attacked by such anxiety, but I heard the answer that it was speculation.

“No big deal. It’s just that the place that was filled with yours just a moment ago became empty in an instant.”

“Huh?”

What the hell are you talking about?

Just when I was about to return Prach to the scabbard, the subtly changed blade caught my eye.

Prach’s rune should be blinking blue with the energy of water.

However, at some point, it was dyed a turbid white color.

‘You can’t…… !’

Prach didn’t say anything, but I could tell.

The fact that a demonic sword that can even devour stamina was born.
