      by nellstewart “(Schnee here. I have arrived at the town ruled by the Kujou. But, where are you at Shin?)” At noon the day after Shin taught Araki about infusing magic power when forging, Shin received a Mind Chat from Schnee. “(I will explain the situation and come meet you. Please wait near the castle gates.)” Shin thought that they would need more time, so he was a little surprised. He explained the situation to Karin, who was coaching him as usual, and headed to the gates. Once he passed the gate, Shin…

      by nellstewart The inheritance ceremony. As the name suggests, this ceremony seeks to determine the person fit to inherit the relics passed from generation to generation in Hinomoto. This time, the relic to be inherited is the divine katana 『Black Moon』, a national treasure of Hinomoto. The challengers are the valiant warriors whose names are included in the Hinomoto Brave Ten. Excluding the 1st seat and current owner of the katana, Kankurou, and those-such as Kuyou- who declined to participate to give the…

      by nellstewart “Lord Kankurou!! I will deal with him!!” Karin was wielding a katana of the Ancient grade, like『Black Moon』: 『Hakuramaru』. 『Black Moon』, crafted as a test blade when creating 『True Moon』, was a weapon with high specs. However, 『Hakuramaru』 had been upgraded by Shin and possessed abilities high enough to match it. “This weight!? Just what is going on!?” “Do you think I would answer?” Karin chose to mock the growling Juugo. The weight of Karin’s slashes was growing not…

      by nellstewart “If you’re feeling out of it, you could rest at the inn, you know.” “Kuu...” Yuzuha, curled in a ball on Shin’s shoulder, expressed that she was okay, so he just lightly patted her on the head. Since their battle with the demons that attempted to sacrifice the Holy Woman Hermie, Yuzuha would sometimes lean on his shoulders, maybe because she was not feeling too well. “Your companion does not seem to be feeling well.” “She’s saying she’s OK, though. It doesn’t look like she has…

      by nellstewart The sea travel proceeded smoothly; except a brief stop at a port town, nothing worth mentioning happened. The only thing notable was that they met the young girl and her attendant a few more times. As it was inconvenient to not know each other’s names, they briefly introduced each other. The young girl with the unique speech style was Kujou Kanade, a level 159 Archer. The samurai-like woman’s name was Saegusa Karin, a level 221 Samurai and Kanade’s escort. Even without fighting, Shin felt that…

      by nellstewart “Hmh...” The two women woke up roughly 2 hours later. Karin woke up first, then Kanade a little later. Perhaps because their bodies had rested, or because of the equipment’s effects, their conditions had improved greatly. “I offer you my most heartfelt thanks for saving my mistress’ life.” “I do too. If you weren’t there, we would be sleeping among fish and seaweed.” “It would have felt bad to just abandon you, that’s all. Rather than that, it’s almost time for…

      by nellstewart The next day, Shin contacted Schnee via Mind Chat after breakfast. “(...and so, I’m going to help them for a while. I’m sorry, but please take care of Hermie and the others.)” “(Don’t be, we’re just waiting for the ship to reach port here. I doubt that the ship will be attacked again like yesterday after all.)” Shin told Schnee that he was going to help Kanade and entrusted Hermie and the others to her. Even if they were subjected to an attack of similar magnitude, they had enough…

      by nellstewart “Shall we seek an inn in this town to spend the night?” “Are you alright? You looked pretty exhausted.” “I’m alright, rest assured. Perhaps I felt a bit too excited.” While they took breaks every now and then, the group had run for almost a full day, so Kanade’s voice was not as energetic as it was in the morning. Karin, who was probably more experienced, looked just a little tired. “Let us look for the best inn available. Any fatigue left would weigh upon us tomorrow.” “That’s…
