A swordsman actually used a magician's skill?
Moreover, it was a skill that was at the top of the eight steps of the magician, second only to the final step, Magic Blade?
Witnessing this scene, there was only one thought in Ye Ye's mind.
"How … how is this possible!?"
The same thought also appeared in Raishin's mind.
"You … why …"
Raishin couldn't even speak clearly.
Raishin, who didn't practice magic, didn't know how amazing Hibari was.
However, Raishin at least saw Hibari's power.
That was enough to shock Raishin, and Ye Ye couldn't believe her eyes.
"So, you can wake up a little bit, right?"
Hibari ignored Raishin's shock and said casually.
"Tell me, if you possessed such strength, would you still think that you wouldn't even be able to retaliate in front of the enemy who exterminated your clan?"
That simple question made Raishin suffer a huge impact.
If Raishin really had the same strength as Hibari last night, even if he couldn't win against Akabane Tenzen, at least he wouldn't be defenseless, right?
"You're just not skilled enough, but you've turned a blind eye to your own weakness. You came to me because you don't have the talent for magic, but you haven't even finished your apprenticeship yet, and you've already denied the path you've chosen. You're so childish, so useless, so blind. What should I say about you?"
Hibari's words were like a sharp knife, piercing Raishin's mind.
But that was the problem, right?
It was obvious that Akabane Raishin thought that he was not talented enough in magic, so he threw himself into the arms of martial arts. Now he just lost once, and he even wanted to deny this road. Wasn't this naive, incompetent, and blind?
"Or, do you think that if you learn magic from an early age, you can win against your enemy?"
Hibari threw the final blow.
That's right.
He couldn't win.
In the face of a genius who could subvert the history of his family, even if Raishin learned magic from an early age, how could he win?
"Then … what should I do …?"
Raishin muttered desperately.
This was the reason why Skylark came here.
"There are two paths in front of you."
Hibari raised his sword and pointed it at Raishin.
"Or, you can run away as you wish, give up on swordsmanship, and pick up the magic you abandoned for the sake of revenge."
"Or, I can continue to improve myself until one day, I can use the sword in my hand to chop off the head of my enemy."
"Choose one of the two paths."
After that, Skylark didn't say anything else.
This was Raishin's divergence line.
Enough to affect the divergence of life.
If he chose the former, Raishin would embark on a terrible and thorny road. With the talent that was denied by him, he would constantly catch up with Akabane Tenzen, who was regarded as the monster of the family. In the end, whether he could catch up with Akabane Tenzen or not, it all depended on God's will.
If Raishin chose the latter, Raishin would choose another strong path.
How should he choose?
There was no need to think anymore.
"… If I rely on magic, I'll never be able to defeat Tian Quan."
Raishin raised his head, exposing a pair of bloodshot eyes in front of Skylark.
And Raishin's choice was already very clear.
"Please teach me swordsmanship again! Sensei! "
Raishin made this choice.
"Since this is your choice, I will do my best to try."
Skylark's tone slowed down, and he lowered his sword.
After that, Skylark and Raishin left together.
He began his long journey on the road to becoming a powerhouse with no end in sight.
…
"…"
After learning the whole thing from Ye Ye, Rozen couldn't help but be silent.
He didn't expect that Raishin would make the same plan as him.
To become stronger.
Although the road was different, the ultimate goal of the two was the same.
The difference was that Rozen was ready to find out all the truth, and Raishin was just for revenge.
"It's still the same as before, you can only see things in front of you, stupid."
Rozen said with a complicated expression.
Perhaps seeing Rozen's depressed mood, Ye Ye quickly changed the topic.
"Speaking of which, why can that swordsman use Magic Blade?"
That was also Ye Ye's question.
Obviously, he was not a magus, but he could use Magic Blade's skill, that was really strange.
For that question, Rozen answered.
"There is nothing strange about it." Rozen said, "Magical power is originally transformed from life force, and life force is the vitality of the body. Everyone has it. In that case, it is not strange to rely on the body to become stronger, and it involves the field of magic."
Just like servants, except for the Caster class, other servants also needed to use magical power to improve their strength. Fuyuki City's Saber could even use Mana Release to strengthen her body, thus exerting amazing combat power.
They were not magicians by nature, but who would lose to a magician?
Even if they were not a magus, it was completely feasible to get power from other ways.
The same principle was also feasible in this world.
"I have read about it in my family's book collection." Rozen explained to Ye Ye: "It is said that among excellent martial artists, there are also people who can improve their magical power by practicing Ki and gradually master Body Hardening, Magic Defense, Magic Blade, and other skills without knowing the principle of magic."
With these skills, an outstanding martial artist would be able to suppress a magician even if he were to fight against him.
Just imagine, if Skylark used Body Hardening to improve his physical ability, and then used Magic Blade to improve the lethality of his weapon, and fought with amazing martial arts, how could he lose to an ordinary magus?
Therefore, the threat Ye Ye felt from Skylark was absolutely real.
"It's just, I didn't expect Raizen's swordsman to be such an existence."
Rozen sighed.
It must be known that it was much more difficult to reach that level than to become a first-class magus.
Rozen even doubted that there were more than ten people like him in the world.
After all, Skylark even mastered the seventh step of the magus, which was something that many magus couldn't do.
Akabane Raishin followed such an existence to practice. Maybe, one day, he could really catch up with Akabane Tenzen?
Thinking of such a thing, Rozen looked at Ye Ye.
"Did Raishin say anything to you before he left?"
Rozen asked such a question.
Ye Ye answered truthfully.
"He told me to tell you that when he comes back again, he will not lose to Akabane Tenzen again, and he will avenge his people."
That showed how much hatred Raishin had in his heart.
"… I hope you don't mess around, idiot."
