Chapter 269 Strongest Sage, Pushes Term

"What was that sword just now!?"

"Wonder if that sword has been augmented with a powerful enchant?"

"No . . . The sword itself is just an ordinary sword . You can do that much with an ordinary sword if you have the skill . "

I look at the sword of 『Mira of Swords Extremers』 .

His movements look dull, most likely due to his imperfect resurrection--but his swordsmans.h.i.+p is pretty up there .

He would have been quite a force to be reckoned with had the resurrection been perfect .

While thinking that, I faced [Mira of Swords Extremers] and shouted .

"Very well . I accept your challenge! --But you have to agree on my term!"

" . . . Let me hear this term of yours . Just so you know, no point in begging for your life . I kill anyone I fight without fail . I kill anyone who refuses to fight me . And of course I kill those who try to run away . "

In other words, anyone who fought and lost to this guy would be killed .

There's no point in pondering about if I lose when I'm going to win anyway .

"It's not about if I lose . But when I win . "

"Simply kill me then . . . I'll just take my own life if you won't . "

I see .

『Death to the losers』 applies to himself as well .

I don't get why this guy is so fixated in dying . . . Since all members of [Swords Extremers] kill the loser in a fight, they share a commonality on this .

As there is no way for us to come to an understanding on this point, there's no meaning in talking about this .

"I don't care if you want to die . . . But I'd like you to tell other [Swords Extremers] about me before you do . "

I said that to [Mira of Swords Extremers] while cutting up all the incoming monsters .

" . . . About you?"

"Yeah . I wish to have a bout with other [Swords Extremers], you see . "

Hearing that [Mira of Swords Extremers]--grinned .

And then he asks me .

"Are you perhaps . . . a bird of a feather?"

" . . . I won't deny being a battle maniac, but please don't liken me with you lot . I don't pick a fight with innocent people nor I kill them . "

[Mira of Swords Extremers] looked unamused when he heard me .

Then he asks me with a serious look .

"What is there to gain in a fight without death?"

"You're going to lose here because you cannot understand that . . . So are you going to agree on my term or what?"

" . . . Fine . I'm going to win anyway . . . Guh . "

[Mira of Swords Extremers] fell on his knee as he replied me while slas.h.i.+ng a monster .

He didn't suffer an attack in particular .

It's just that his body is just in too bad of a shape .

His life force is very low as well .

. . . This guy's probably gonna die in a month even if we leave him alone .

"Can you really fight in that state?"

"It's because of the magic that revived me . Wish it had revived me in my heyday . . . But I've died once already . Can't complain . "

" . . . Was it really magic that revived you?"

The resurrection done by [Broken Star] is not magic .

To begin with, reviving the dead cannot be done with principle of magic .

In my past life, there were a few examples of [phenomenon that cannot be explained with magic] done by s.p.a.ce monsters .

It's called [Suprarational Deeds], and it's distinctly different than magic .

[Suprarational Deeds] are easily mistaken with magic to those who aren't familiar with magic--but it's hard to believe that a high level magic combatant of the past era would mistake revivals by way of [Broken Star] for magic .

"That's--"

As [Mira of Swords Extremers] was going to answer me, he suddenly shut his mouth and grimaced .

Then he speaks to me .

"It appears that I have been barred to utter that . . . Would have liked to be given the liberty to at least speak whatever I want to those facing their death . "

Magical gag huh .

. . . These low-level revivals of the dead really are the work of a human, not [Broken Star] then .

I don't see why an already dead [Broken Star] would went out of its way to put a gag on those it revived .

That said, revival of the dead is impossible with pure magic, so someone must have formulated a spell art that makes use of [Broken Star] to perform these revivals .

We might have to defeat that spellcaster once we're done dealing with [Swords Extremers] .

We beat more and more monsters while thinking that .

『T-these two guys of opposing sides are just talking like it's normal . . . 』

『And they're even cooperating together nicely to deal with these monsters . . . It's a world I can never hope to understand . 』

『It's probably a world where only battle maniacs can comprehend . . . 』

The girls sounded like they couldn't believe us when they saw us conversing .

Looks like they can't understand the feeling of enjoying a fight nice and slowly free of nuisance .
