I Was a Sword When I Reincarnated Chapter 531: Daghour

Chapter 531: Daghour

They decided to let them take a break as it would take so ti for the adventurers to recover their bodies and minds after being beaten by Urushi.

After this, a mock battle between Urushi and those who wished to participate would be held. The goal was to show Urushi’s power not only to the lower-level adventurers but also to the higher-level adventurers.

It was a little off from the request of being an examiner, but it was fine since they’re also offered an extra reward and Urushi was looking motivated too. Well, it seems, it was also because Fran praised him earlier for doing a good job.

However, Fran was not tired at all and seed to be bored. Perhaps realizing this, one of the adventurers approached Fran.

「I’m a C-ranked adventurer nad Daghour. Fran-dono, would you be so kind as to let have a match with you?」

Fran then glanced at both of the Guild Masters, and they nodded rather happily.

「It’s fine. In fact, I’d like you to blow all the onlookers away too」

「Understood, I’ll do it then」

「Ooh! I’m grateful! I know I’m not going to be able to do much, but I’ll do my best to not let you down!」

It seems he was a warrior type. And that na too, this guy must be the one that had taught spear techniques to the adventurers from before. In fact, he looked quite skilled in using a spear. He possessed the Spear Saint Skill and Spear Saint Technique and his level of harpooning and throwing skills was also high. In addition, he had a strange skill called 『Water Draining』. It seems to be a skill that weakened the opponent’s water resistance when an attack was launched into the water. Well, he was a lake specialist after all.

「Well then, please take care of !」

「Nn!」

「Shiyaa!」

He unleashed a deadly attack right from the start. But Fran smiled as if she were enjoying it. Daghour too, he laughed excitedly.

「Hahaha! Amazing!」

「Good shot」

Then the fierce battle began. Although there was a difference between Daghour’s seriousness and Fran’s wait-and-see approach, both seem to be having fun.

There was also a scene that made feel a chill at tis. It was the shape of the spear that Daghour used. It had a large harpoon-like curve at the tip, so it could be used as a small sickle when pulled back after a thrust.

We had never seen this unique weapon movent style before, as he had tried to snatch Fran with it a few tis already.

「Interesting」

「Ooh! It’s an honor to hear the Black Lightning Princess say so!」

Then Daghour starts chanting while fighting. To be able to use magic while moving, this guy must be quite skilled! Although he hadn’t reached B-rank yet due to his level, it seems he had been training his skills every day. His level of mastery was quite impressive.

「Haaa! Aqua Create!」

It was the simplest water magic that he used, but it was not foolproof in a high-speed battle. If it hits her in the face, her movents would be impeded, and she might even lose her footing.

Fran ducked this ti, but I’m sure it wasn’t my imagination that she looked happier. Because it was a mock battle with a strong opponent.

(Master, put up a fla barrier)

『Oioi, are you going to use flas to end this?』

(Nn. He won’t expect it to be used here. This is my payback)

『Very well… Haaa!』

「Uwooh!」

「Kyaa!」

「Gyaaa!」

「Fi-fire magic, in this kind of place… Eh, it’s not hot?」

The surrounding adventurers scread and looked terrified as they were swallowed up by the veil of flas that spread quickly around Fran. Soon, however, they begin to be confused by the fact that it wasn’t hot.

What I used was the Fla Barrier, a Fire Magic skill. This skill itself had no offensive power and was not hot to the touch.

Originally, it was a spell that enveloped the user to nullify fla attacks. However, with my current control power, I could transform this magic to cover this site completely.

『Looking good. The Superiorized Magic Control skill is showing a good result!』

「Nn!」

This was the result of Skill Superiorization, which had been a dead ability for a while. This skill transford my magic control skill into a Special skill. This was also thanks to Announcer-san’s advice.

When I was asleep, Fran had talked to Announcer-san about how to use the points and taught her how to enhance this skill.

Not only did it have the benefit of increasing my magic control more, but it also had the benefit of making it easier to reacquire my magic control if I trained my magic manipulation. Of course, I’ve already reacquired the magic control as a shared skill in the Plains of the Demon Wolf. Well, I used my self-evolution points to raise the magic control level though, so I’ve spent a lot of points.

「I-impossible… To be able to use such a skill…! You’re also a first-rate magician, huh!? Ha, haha, I guess I had a problem with my eyes」

It seems that the only person who understood this greatness was Grandma Jill, who was a genuine magician. It was no wonder she was so sober and her face was pale.

「I’ll end this now! Haaa!」

「No chanting huh!? Damn, this is…!」

Flare Impulse. Well, it was the skill that spread an explosive fla over a wide area. It was the higher-level magic of Burst Fla. It had less killing power, but with the addition of explosions and flashes of light, it had high crowd control power.

After the flas had cleared, there was no one standing on the site except Fran.

Even the Guild Masters were moaning while covered with soot.

『…It’s overkill』

「But they also asked to blow away the onlookers too」

『What they ant by that was for you to show them how strong you are though. Now then, I wonder if this all right』

It would be enough to just show off her strength after all.

After that, we just went with the flow and took a break. The damage shouldn’t have been too bad, but I guess, we overdid it.

It was also going to take a while for the participants to recover from the shock of fighting Urushi as he broke their hearts again.

「Uwaah, that was great magic」

「Yeah, I am impressed」

Lovren, who was an onlooker, and Daghour, who was a participant, seem perfectly fine. Along with a few other adventurers who are still fine, Fran was making small talk with them.

By showing her strength, she seed to have been accepted at once.

But in the midst of it, an adventurer that seed to be in a great hurry ca running into the exam site.

「This is a disaster! Anyone…! Eh? What a ss!」
