I Was a Sword When I Reincarnated Chapter 832

Chapter 832

832: Saving Nadia

After my Cannibalism triggered, the power of Overgrowth ca flowing into . A terrifying rush of power.

I almost lost my sanity like last ti, but thanks to Announcer-san’s help, I was able to hold on.

At the sa ti, I could see that Overgrowth was rapidly losing its power.

The sword previously had enough energy to burn soone with a single touch, but it now looked cold and silent.

And the blade, which should have been instantly repaired, showed no sign of returning to its original state.

There can be no doubt about it. Overgrowth had been completely broken.

We’ve won.

But our victory was not the end. The important part ca now.

「Sophie……!」

After being rendered immobile again due to the recoil of her skill, Fran called out a na while falling to the ground.

「I know. Leave the rest to .」

「Nn.」

Sophie began her harp performance again.

It’s a beautiful lody, even after hearing it so many tis. I don’t think I could ever get tired of listening to this healing song.

Perhaps because of Overgrowth’s destruction, Nadia’s movents had stopped too. She was simply standing there, completely stunned.

「Ga…… Ah……」

The scene almost looked as if a heartless monster was enraptured by the song of a goddess and fell the ground in tears.

A light overflowed from the harp along with the lody, enveloping Nadia.

Still, Nadia did not move.

Orfalve and Tort watched over Nadia, quietly and vigilantly.

The battle still raged on in the surrounding area, but it was completely quiet here. Almost as if we were separated from the outside world by an invisible wall or sothing.

Ron ron――……

The sound stopped, and Sophie’s slender fingers slowly leave the strings of the harp.

At the sa ti, the light subsided. Out of it ca Nadia, having fully regained her human form.

However, she seed to be unconscious and collapsed on the spot.

Fran tried to get up, but she only fell to the ground again. She no longer had the strength to stand.

「Auntie……!」

『Fran, it’s okay. She’s still breathing and has plenty of life force left.』

Her status was no longer listed as “Erosion” and “Golden Devourer” disappeared from her skill list. All the effects of Overgrowth were completely erased.

「Woof!」

Urushi approached Nadia, sniffed her and barked lightly. His nose didn’t sense anything wrong with her either.

「I’m…… so relieved……」

Fran fell with her face on the ground and muttered in a tearful voice. I can only imagine how her joy, gratitude, and relief overflowed into tears.

But she was also leaving a lot of snot. Her face must look like a ss from crying on the ground like that……

「So her humanity has really returned?」

「That’s amazing! Sophie’s performance and Fran’s strike were both magnificent!」

Orfalve and Jayne approached us. They checked Nadia and Fran’s condition by taking their pulses.

「Now all we have to do is destroy the antidemons!」

「Tort, I’ll leave you in charge of the undead. I’ll be escorting Fran and Nadia back!」

「Very well. It has been a long ti since my last incarnation, so I was needing a bit more combat.」

「Then we go together, heroic spirit!」

「Indeed! I shall accompany you, dwarven champion!」

Orfalve and Tort rushed off into the antidemon horde, laughing rrily.

There were too many antidemons to call the battle over any ti soon, but the dwarves weren’t having any trouble. We can leave it to them.

「Now then, let’s get going too.」

「Sorry, I can’t get up. Urushi.」

「Woof!」

After wiping her face, Fran called over to Urushi, who approached to carry her. However, Jayne interrupted us.

「Wait a minute. Wolf-kun here seems pretty strong, so you can have him watch over the surroundings. I’ll arrange for soone else to carry you.」

Jayne pulled about ten magic stones out of her pocket and scattered them on the ground.

「Summon Greater Skeleton!」

「「「Rattle Rattle!」」」

Then she summoned pretty powerful skeletons, probably higher than Threat Level D.

As we would expect from Jean’s mother, as well as the bearer of the title of Demon Lord, she was a very skilled necromancer.

（Woof?）

『We can obey Jayne here. I’ll feel safer with you guarding us too.』

（Woof!）

Two skeletons carried Fran and Nadia princess style, and the rest scattered around the periter to protect them.

Even though we were surrounded by antidemons, we still had the demonkin protecting us. This many skeletons felt a bit overkill.

「The story must end on a happy note! We can’t allow any blunders after we’ve co so far!」

I guess she wanted to take all possible protective asures. Well, if it’s to save our lives, then I can’t complain about her being a bit overprotective. I appreciate it.

『I’ll have to check my stats in the anwhile.』

Since Jayne’s skeletons were handling Fran’s transport, I can check the results of my cannibalize. First is the magic stone points.

『Thought so……』

My magic stone points had been reduced to a total of 28, practically as good as 0. It kinda surprised to see such a half-assed value even remained.

But I was expecting this much, so no harm done. I totally knew it was going to be like this! I’m not disappointed in the slightest!

『……Sigh.』

I should hurry up and check the stat gains to cheer myself up.

『Eh? Seriously?』

Though it wasn’t as much as when I absorbed Fanatics, my stats had been significantly enhanced.

My attack power increased by 150 and was now over the 1500 mark. That alone was enough to make happy, but this was not the only improvent.

My mana increased by about 3000, to over 20000. And I think durability increased by almost 1000? My total durability was now 16560.

If I rember correctly about the ti I cannibalized Fanatics, attack power didn’t change, mana increased by about 5300, and durability increased by 3300.

Considering that this ti I got 150 attack, 3000 mana, and 1000 durability, I think I’d have to say Fanatics was better?

That’s because mana was the most important stat to . Fanatics was a forr divine sword, while Overgrowth was a failed blade that never managed to beco a divine sword in the first place.

Maybe it’s only natural that Fanatics claid the higher rank.

I also had one new skill, a Unique Skill called “Mixed Slayer”. It had a pretty vague explanation about being used to defeat monsters that were mixed unnaturally.

Considering that I inherited it from Overgrowth, I’d say it’s probably an ability that was effective against the Abyss Eater. Maybe it gives a bonus against monsters created by synthesizing multiple beings together, such as chiras.

『Guess I can figure it out after trying it.』
