Chapter 266 - Country of Sakura, Cherin and Seven Holy Swords [37] (2/2)

Ria and Rose wiped off the sweat with the towel they brought.

「I wonder if I have slightly mastered Sakura Blossom One-Sword Style…」

「Oh, no doubt! I feel like I’ve gotten stronger somehow!」

「I don’t think it’s something you can master in one day like that though. Lilim has always been a little too imaginative, though…」

The president and senpais rehydrated themselves from the water bottle they brought.

And as everyone was resting,

(All right, it’s finally time for some free training.)

I picked up my sword.

(I learned the godspeed Iai-slash, Lightning Sakura a while ago.)

In doing so, I firmly grasped the principle of sword drawing.

If I applied it to the seventh sword, Instant Flash, the speed would surely elevate further.

(The point to note is the angle of the sword drawing, the bend of the arm, and the snap of the wrist.)

And when I got ready to unleash Instant Flash,

「Kid, do you have a moment?」

Bacchus-san called out to me.

「Ah, yes.」

I took my hand off the hilt of the sword and headed towards him.

Bacchus-san was sitting on a stump, with a serious expression on his face for some reason.

「What is it, Bacchus-san?」

「No, it’s nothing important. There’s just one thing I’d like to request you.」

「Request?」

What could it possibly be?

「There is an incredibly strong spirit core slumbering in you… Isn’t that right?」

「Yes, there is. As far as I know, there is no swordsman stronger than that guy. He is a literal “monster”.」

He’s savage, violent, and an unreasonable guy, but his power is immensely overwhelming.

To be honest, I can’t even imagine Zeon ever losing.

「Hou, is that right? He’s that strong huh.」

Bacchus-san muttered with a grin, and laughed happily for some reason.

And the next moment,

「Naa, Allen. Why don’t you let me fight that monster?」

He uttered an unbelievable request.
