Chapter 1114: Chapter 652: Today Is the Day
“Miss Ibuki, are all Demon Sword Princesses forged from people?”
After the Hyakki group left a certain distance, Dorothy glanced at the Red Shadow hanging from her waist and finally couldn’t help but ask the Miss Oiran beside her.
“Yes, that’s indeed the case.”
Ibuki Yuuki did not avoid the question and nodded.
During this period of interaction, she had already understood the personality of the master she followed. She knew that given this master’s character, she would probably have a hard ti accepting such things. So, after just intimidating those petty people, she was actually waiting for the master’s inquiry.
“I have a talent called Demon Blade Forging, which allows to forge creatures into weapons. The stronger the creatures and the better the swordsmanship talent, the higher the quality of the weapon forged.”
Miss Oiran explained with her head down.
“All the demon blades I forge will be controlled by , the Master of the Demon Blade, and will beco my sword slaves. Their strength will be at my disposal, and their lives and deaths will be under my control.”
At this mont, the Red Shadow on the waist of the Hobody Witch suddenly reverted from its demon blade form to a human form. Her eyes, usually devoid of much emotional fluctuation, were sowhat anxious as she looked at her master and then spoke.
“Lady Dorothy, please don’t bla Mother Superior. I was the one who actively sought out Mother Superior, wanting to beco a demon blade. The sisters are also grateful for Mother Superior’s protection over the years.”
Dorothy: “……”
Ah, what, I haven’t even said anything yet, why do you already assu I’ll bla you for it?
The Hobody Witch was sowhat speechless.
Perhaps for others, the concept of using living beings to forge swords would be hard to accept, but Dorothy was a hobody. In her past life, she had encountered such settings of living weapons or weapon races nurous tis in ani and novels, and was long used to it.
Hmm, the setting of a girl transforming into a weapon is really cool.
“Alright, I didn’t say I was going to bla you. You two don’t need to be so anxious.”
Dorothy spoke to soothe the worried two.
“If this ability were used on those shaless fellows from earlier, then I would indeed be uncomfortable. But, Miss Ibuki, I believe you are not soone who disregards life.”
“When I held Red Shadow, I could feel the heart of the demon blade. She truly respects you and sees you as a mother. I’m also sure that’s not a fake feeling instilled by brainwashing or hypnosis, but a genuine sentint from the heart.”
The Hobody Witch said this.
Hearing Lady Dorothy’s words, Ibuki Yuuki was sowhat surprised and moved as she looked up. She hadn’t expected the master to trust her so much, and this sense of being trusted by the one she swore to be loyal to for life was indeed heartwarming.
“Lady Dorothy, it is my lack of ability that makes unable to better manage the Hyakki on Monster Mountain. There are often newcors who are bullied by those depraved seniors, and I am powerless to help.”
Miss Oiran composed herself a little, then began to explain why she forged people into swords.
“Initially, I was very kind to the Hyakki, pitying their miserable backgrounds, so I wanted to help them as much as possible. At first, things were fine, but as more people ca to the mountain, I couldn’t manage to help everyone.”
“If I helped one, I couldn’t help another, and especially when conflicts broke out among the Hyakki, I didn’t know how to handle it.”
“Initially, I was biased towards the seniors on the mountain who were closer to , but this caused dissatisfaction among the newcors. Later, I decided not to let personal feelings interfere and to handle matters fairly and justly. However, the seniors then felt I had changed and beco cold and heartless.”
“No matter what I did, there was always soone on the mountain who felt uncomfortable. I simply wanted to create more harmony in the mountain, but the joys and sorrows of people are always so different.”
“But later sothing happened, leading to cause a big commotion on the mountain, almost destroying the entire Monster Mountain. Strangely though, I found that after that, the Hyakki in the mountain beca much more obedient, and no one dared to show any dissatisfaction with my decisions.”
“My strength proved to be far more effective than my kindness.”
“So, since then, I’ve rarely made contact with the Hyakki. I’ve stayed hidden in the Mirage Tower, and every so often, I would send soone to pick a Hyakki from the mountain and forge them into a demon blade.”
“This behavior also made the Hyakki more fearful of , and they beca more obedient to my words, which improved the order of Monster Mountain.”
Miss Oiran’s tone seed sowhat bewildered as she spoke about this.
Dorothy: “…..”
Fear the power, but not cherish the virtue, this is quite reminiscent of Japan.
She recalled the group of Hyakki who tried to morally coerce them earlier, which indeed seed like sothing they would do.
And Ibuki Yuuki’s account continued.
“Actually, the periodic selection of soone to forge into a blade was my way to intimidate them. The Hyakki on the mountain all believed it was an effort to force them to beco stronger because I always chose the weakest for the forging. Over ti, it beca a rumor that the weakest monster didn’t deserve to live and would be used as sword material.”
“But in truth, I always chose those who were the most bullied in the mountain. If I didn’t take action, I felt those kids might be bullied to death by others. But the lesson from being too kind before makes afraid to show rcy again, so I found the excuse of forging blades.”
