426 424 Intelligent Weapons

"I'm sorry, Fran. It's okay now."

(Really?)

"Oh."

While I was groaning, the Devil's Sword ran me away again. I hope Ursi brings some info home...

But I don't know how co-eating was activated. If I kill a homogeneous opponent, it's supposed to be my ability to absorb power...

We're inorganic, we're already dead. So you're saying that if you attack and do damage because you're dead, it activates? Or the decision to cut it, kill some of it? Or is it some other reason?

Either way, it's dangerous not to eat together when fighting that demon sword in the future. Also, I want you to give me a break to taste that feeling.

But absorbing the opponent's power means I'm strengthened and the Devil's Sword is weakened. Then you might want to put up with the disgust and use a shared meal. Hmmm......

"Fran, are you okay?

"Hmm?"

"The movement seemed suddenly dull along the way..."

"That sword had the power to rule the spirit of the slayer. It doesn't affect you?

Bermelia and the others ask me worried. Frederick has already healed his wounds with a potion in Bermelia's possession, but his face is slightly praised. Though prevented by mental endurance, it's Frederick who ate his dominance skills. I guess I understand the horror.

We also know that when Fran is manipulated, we can't win it ourselves. That's why I was staring at Fran to be vigilant.

"I have resistance skills, so I'm fine."

"Right."

"Good."

Apparently, you understood that word had no lies. Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho.

Then we decided to head to the inn to rescue the humans. That explosion, and part of the inn is still burning. I had to do something about this.

Leave the fire extinguishing activities to Bermelia, who specializes in hydromagic, and we'll look for people who are late on the run. But there were surprisingly few people who were injured and unable to move.

Originally, luxury lodging means there are few guests. In addition, it was sometimes an inn for adventurers of rank C and above, half of whom had fled on their own.

Of course, there were some rich people in general, but they had escorts, etc., who had already taken the evacuation with their hands.

In the end, we rescued only one employee who was late on the run. The young man has also healed his wounds and led him outside the inn.

"Let's go back to the courtyard once"

"Mmm."

We need to secure Gordon's body.

The soldiers will be here as soon as this noise comes. Naturally, if you look at Gordon's body, you'll be suspected of something to do with the case because of its unnatural nature. The body must also be seized.

"I want to hold the body before then"

"Mmm."

When we went back to the courtyard, Frederick had already identified the body. My torso has been destroyed, but my head remains, and it is possible that I still have a clue that leads to the identity of the Devil's Sword.

"Got something?

"Somewhat"

You know what? Don't listen to that.

"Tell me."

"First of all the qualities of this man, but definitely under the authority of the Count Baileys family, definitely a man named Gordon"

"Same as Hamulus?

"Oh, he was missing during the mole"

Apparently Gordon was also a colleague of the Fredericks. The colour of condolences appeared on his face, but some of them seemed slightly more distracting.

"But..."

"But?"

"Gordon wasn't a real unit like us or Hamulus, he was a department responsible for surveillance, etc."

"In other words?"

"I'm naturally working out, but I should have been less combative. Even for a short time, Fran and I shouldn't have had the strength to do it from the front."

It would mean that strength had been bottomed up by the fact that potential had been unleashed. But they still have something to be uncomfortable about.

"Gordon was fighting with a sword, wasn't he?

"Mmm."

"But... Gordon was a spear man, and his sword arm shouldn't have been a big deal"

Potential liberation is a state in which the capabilities originally possessed are increased. If you are a physical strengthening system skill such as regeneration or muscle hypertrophy, you will also be able to think that your sleeping talent woke up with your potential unleashed.

But is it possible that only the skill of swordsmanship will rise? Though I originally possessed a low level of swordsmanship, I find it odd that it would be so enhanced that it would change into swordsmanship. Moreover, the technique of being at a higher level did not appear to have changed.

"And so is flame magic. To the extent that Gordon was able to use elementary earth magic, he couldn't use any fire magic."

"But he had flame magic on him."

"Oh. I saw it, too"

Flaming magic on sword saints...... Neither should be such an easy skill to get. That's unless you're capable like me.

"Ability of the Devil's Sword?

"... I don't know. But there exists a non-standard sword that manipulates the user and gives him more than one new skill...? Though I saw it up close and was certain that it was not a dead spirit."

Frederick also understood that he was not an undead sword, but a demon sword. I'm pretty sure that's from the fact that my cannibalism was activated.

On the contrary, it was more likely to be an Intelligence Weapon.

"I heard voices when they slashed me"

"Me too. Obey me, you said so."

"Mm-hmm. On that sword, I'm willing"

"Huh! (a) You mean Intelligence Weapon! No, but surely that voice..."

You're surprised Frederick opened his eyes. Intelligence Weapon is said to be an epic being. It would naturally surprise me if it existed in a place like this and could be scattering destruction.

But Frederick's surprise didn't seem to be all that.

"No way... I didn't know it existed outside of Goldicia..."

"What do you mean?

"On the continent of Goldicia there is a swing of intelligence sword"

Frederick says what a love sword of Trismegistos, also the protagonist of the tragedy of Goldicia, is, yes. Apparently, Trismegistos, a gifted alchemist, created it after bitterness, mobilizing all his own knowledge.

By divine punishment, he bore the stipulation that he would continue to fight forever until he destroyed the abyss eater that he had created, and that he still continues to fight in the land of Goldicia with his sword of love.

Maybe it wasn't Trismegistos who made me, was it?

I don't seem to be a divine blacksmith, but with the original abandoned divine sword and all that, there's no chance at all? He's a genius alchemist who will destroy the world anyway.

"The Goldician continent..."
