Chapter 317 Strongest Sage, Gives Order

 

" . . . What the h.e.l.l happened? Didja use chantless magic?"

With my sword on his nape, Giruas sounded perplexed .
I deployed no magic in our match, no physical reinforcement, no advanced magic, no nothing .

I simply stepped forward, evaded his sword with pure [Techniques], and thrust my sword forward .
No mana was used in the least .
Since there's a high chance of the demon finding us were I used any magic except for Physical Reinforcement .

"Not at all . That was merely a swordsmans.h.i.+p technique . "

I held back on purpose the last time I fought Giruas, and also partly for teaching him the might of chantless magic .
In reality, swordsmans.h.i.+p alone is more than enough for me to win against Giruas .

"So I still can't make you get serious even now huh . . . "

Giruas has grown stronger than the last time we met .
Advertis.e.m.e.ntI can see that very well just from that instantaneous match .

And it's not only on magic side, his swordsmans.h.i.+p has seen a major improvement as well .
He must have undergone a ma.s.sive amount of training since our last encounter .

And the results clearly show .
He's gotten much more powerful incomparable to his previous self .

That's precisely why Giruas understands very well the vast gap between us .
The more powerful a combatant becomes, the easier for them to grasp the difference in capabilities between them and their opponent .

"You got that right . . . And even I would have a hard time fighting against the demon lurking in this town in a frontal battle . . . Do you get the degree of this demon's strength if I tell you that?"

" . . . Well dang, I definitely ain't a match that's for sure . Gotta get more training first . "

Looks like he's given up .
However . . . I can't have him leave now .
I need Giruas to do something .

"Hold on . Did you forget about my request?"

" . . . Shoot it . I'll do anything within my power . "

Giruas halted and asked me back when I said that .
Looks like he's willing to do it .

"I'd like you to help us acquiring a weapon . "

" . . . Weapon?"

"Yeah . There's a valuable weapon hidden in this town lord's mansion . . . The demon is staying in this town to guard that weapon . "

Hearing that . . . Giruas looked like he got what was going on .
Then he grinned . . . and spoke .

"I got ya . I'm gonna act as a decoy and fight the demon while you guys go grab that weapon, am I right?"

. . . Almost there .
The plan is correct, but he's got the roles mixed up .

"It's the opposite . Us four will fight the demon attracting its attention away . In the meantime, you fetch a coffin where the weapon is inside the mansion and hand it over to me . . . I'll fill you on the weapon's location after this . "

"Fetch a coffin . . . Ya tellin' me to let you guys have all the fun fightin' while I'm stuck carrying some luggage?"

Giruas asked me back with a perplexed look on his face .
But that's exactly what I'm asking .

"Yeah . . . You said you'd do anything right?"

"Well yeah, but y'know . . . Can't ya let me in a bit of the fight?"

"You're dead meat if you did . It won't even be a fight . "

Then I take a stance with my sword again .
Giruas recalled how he was soundly beaten when he saw that .

"Dangit, so I'm that powerless . . . Eh fine, I'm gonna fetch ya that coffin sword or something . "

Looks like he gets the plan .
[Coffin of Sealing] is pretty heavy . . . But he should be able to carry it somehow .

The movement jamming of [Coffin of Sealing] won't activate as long as it's within 50 meters of its initial installed location, so even brute force can carry it .
Once Giruas brings me the coffin, I will take care of the rest .

"Sorry about this, you're a big help . "

" . . . Imma make you carry my luggage next time . Just you wait . "

"Yeah . I'll look forward to it . "

I really do look forward to his next growth .
Not many people as blessed as Giruas in swordsmans.h.i.+p .
Hence I can't let him die here .
