Chapter 55 Two Adults (Ch 55)

“Eruza, these five swords will belong to you from now on.”

Slack handed all five long swords of different colors to Erza.

Gold, green, blue, red, brown,

Five accompanied Slack for a year,

It cost Slack a lot of money.

Each long sword costs 20 million J.

Erza looked at the long sword in front of her in confusion.

With a thud,

“It hurts, Erza, what are you doing?”

For most men, breast assault is something they can only dream of but cannot obtain.

But forget about Erza’s.

There is no girl who wears steel plate armor to attack others’ chests.

“Slack, have you lost your mind recently? Come into my arms and let me comfort you.”

Erza explained very seriously,

It’s no problem to be in your arms,

But you take off your armor first.

Slack muttered to himself,

“No, don’t worry, my brain is fine.”

“Then why did you give me your weapon?”

“Because I don’t need them anymore.”

“unnecessary?”

Erza was puzzled.

Aren’t weapons something that should accompany a soldier throughout his life?

Although Slack is a swordsman,

But shouldn’t a swordsman regard his sword as something more important than his own life?

“That’s right, Erza, look.”

Slack pointed to a big tree nearby.

The eyes are fierce,

With a wave of his left hand,

“cut.”

Then, in Erza’s shocked eyes,

The big tree fell down.

Erza immediately went forward to check.

Its cross section is extremely smooth.

So he turned around and asked,

“You can do it?”

“That’s right.”

After that, Slack strengthened his magic and released it.

A sharp air sword came into view.

“This is?”

Erza reached out and touched it.

“careful.”

But Slack quickly removed the magic,

The air sword also quickly disappeared.

Erza looked at Slack in confusion.

Slack also explained to her seriously,

“My magic ‘Sharp’ can make any non-living thing sharp, including the air. But before, I couldn’t do this at all. But after practicing in the Magic Mountain Range for a year, I vaguely felt that my magic was no longer limited to the objects in my hands. Maybe this also means that I have stepped into the boundary of S-level.”

“But at that time, I had to help the two Laxus brothers advance to S-rank, so I put it on hold. Although I didn’t succeed in the end, after I came back, I gradually became familiar with current magic. So I probably won’t need those swords in the future, so giving them to you is the best destination for them.”

“What is the limit of S-rank?”

Erza asked,

“I’m not really sure. If I have to describe it, it’s that there’s more magic power, the world is clearer, and some things that were previously impossible can now be done.”

Slack replied,

In fact, he wasn’t very clear.

But he could clearly feel that he had become much stronger.

“Then how can you condense an air sword? Aren’t you a knife wielder?”

This is also what Erza is most confused about.

Strength can be enhanced.

Magical advancement is also OK.

But the appearance of your usual weapon has also changed, isn’t that too outrageous?

Now, for Erza who is proficient in many kinds of weapons, the use of a knife and a sword are completely different.

“Oh, this, because in close combat, the knife is indeed more comfortable, it can be used for chopping and slashing, and it is more powerful. The sword is not good. The best use of a double-edged sword is stabbing. High-intensity attacks such as slashing will damage the sword first. However, if it is used as a magic attack or a long-range attack.”

Slack demonstrated as he spoke.

“go.”

Under Slack’s control, a long sword of air instantly rushed into the woods.

The long sword swept across,

All the trees on both sides fell down.

“The two striking surfaces of a double-edged sword are far more effective than a single-edged sword.”

After that,

Slack chuckled again.

“Besides, after it breaks, I can just condense it. Air is too cheap. From this point of view, the sword has only advantages and no disadvantages for me at the moment. Of course, I have to choose this one, right?”

“Then you have practiced sword for so many years, right?”

Erza still felt sorry for Slack’s hard work over the years. He got up early and went to bed late every day, not even having time to eat. He gave up the swordsmanship he had practiced just like that.

“The path to the same goal is different, and the purpose of practicing swordsmanship is to become stronger. Now that you can become stronger, so even if you don’t need a sword, so what? Erza, don’t let your thoughts restrict your hands and feet. Weapons and armor are all for the benefit of people. As long as you are strong, everything else doesn’t matter.”

“Uh-huh.”

Erza nodded in agreement.

Weapons and equipment are all for the benefit of people.

People decide how to use weapons and equipment, rather than weapons and equipment determining people’s actions.

“Besides, we can only save Jellal and the others if we become stronger, right?”

“Yeah, that’s right.”

Gerard might have been deceived.

Slack had already told Erza,

Come to think of it, how could such a kind person become so evil in an instant?

There must be something pitiful about a hateful person.

This is also an important motivation for Erza to practice hard.

And from Slack’s teaching just now,

Erza also realized something.

Use a knife for close combat and a sword for long-range combat.

……

“Tiger, Tiger, it’s time to eat.”

In a room on the outskirts of Magnolia Town,

Tiger, Mira, Elfman, and Lisanna are temporarily living here.

It may be difficult to buy a house with the current money.

But renting a house is not difficult at all.

As for why you don’t live in the dormitory,

Again, who would live in a dormitory where men and women cannot live together?

And to be honest, Mira’s craftsmanship is not bad either.

After solving the major problem of who will cook,

Things like renting a house naturally become very simple.

“profound.”

Tiger responded loudly,

But he didn’t leave right away.

Instead, he is still writing something.

But how could our hot-tempered Miss Mira indulge him?

One foot,

With a bang,

The HP of Tiger’s room door is very low.

Mira walked in and saw

The room is full of papers.

And Tiger is still writing.

He casually picked one up from the ground and looked at it.

There was a big fat purple-black man painted on it.

It seems that the only thing round and plump is the belly.

It’s so cute with its short arms and legs.

Look at the words written above.

“Geng Gui? Song of destruction, curse, hypnosis, dream-eating, strange light, what the hell is going on?”

Mira couldn’t understand it at all.

I just asked Tiger directly.

Slap it hard.

“Hey, what is this?”

Tiger looked back.

Seeing the paper in Mira’s hand,

After a quick glance,

“Geng Gui, I designed a ghost-type monster. The materials need gas, something hard to find like ghosts. However, its strength is not very high, so it is a scrapped project for now.”

“Abandoned case? Oh, you are planning to use it to perform your receiving magic, right?”

Mira understood at once.
