Chapter 521: Sword Fusion

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

In the huge smelting pool, the scorching flames illuminated the faces of Masanori Sakamoto and Kudou Saitama.

Sakamoto looked at the sky from the clouds in the smelting pool. He did not know what he was thinking, but Kudou Saitou wanted to say something but stopped himself. He knew that he could not stop Masanori Sakamoto’s next move.

The smelting pool that was powered by magic power had turned the sky from the clouds into a semi-solidified state. The Magic Array on the sword became more and more bright red. Masanori Sakamoto felt that her connection with the sky from the clouds was getting closer and closer.

The magic array on her body started to light up like the sky from cloud.

First, her face, neck, and arms…

The Magic Array started to turn blood-red along her body. Her consciousness started to become absent-minded, just like the time when she went back to the sky from the cloud.

She could not help but move toward the smelting pool. She leaped toward the sky from the cloud. All the flames condensed into a huge fire dragon and roared at Masanori Sakamoto. It was as if she was doing something that made people and gods angry.

However, Masanori Sakamoto’s determined gaze aroused the sleeping sky from the clouds. An extremely sharp sword light instantly cut the fire dragon into two halves. Then, she rushed out of the blacksmith shop and smashed the hard roof before flying into the sky.

At this moment, a storm was brewing outside the house. The mighty light of thunder and lightning shone on the land of the northern border. It was so majestic that it was inviolable and could not be looked down upon. It trampled all the living beings in this world under its feet.

Everyone who saw the lightning in the sky was awakened by the fear of nature. How could humans look straight at the power of lightning?

However, the cold sword light told everyone that there would always be someone who would challenge nature and bring hope to mankind. The sword light that pierced the sky shattered the lightning and cut through the dark clouds, opening up a pitch-black starry sky.

General Zili looked at this scene with a solemn expression. This was a sign of the birth of a divine artifact. However, why now? What was the connection between this and the martial arts conference the next day?

Whose will was this? What kind of change would it bring to the northern border?

Thinking of this, the sky was already clear. Just a glance was enough to clear away the haze in people’s hearts.

In the blacksmith shop, Masanori Sakamoto’s body had already begun to blur. It was as if she was about to disappear from this world. The people, things, and things that she had seen in her life appeared in front of her eyes.

On the day she was born with the tomes of arcane in the Sakamoto family, everyone loved her. However, her body could not leave the tomes of arcane. After the Sakamoto family relied on the power of the tomes of arcane to become the only priest in the northern border, she never went out again.

She did not know why she was born, but she hoped that her family could live well and did her best to help them. However, there was no limit to human greed.

One day, Shinji Sakurazaka predicted the destruction of the Sakurazaka family. She tried her best to avoid this ending, but the royal family could not allow the Sakurazaka family to continue expanding.

That night, only Masanori Sakuraku and the only young man from the Sakuraku family escaped. For the first time, she knew that fate could not be defied.

However, she still made a decision. Not only for the sake of the Sakuraku family, but also for the people of the northern borderline who were suffering under the rule of the royal family. She helped General Zili overthrow the rule of the royal family.

She was the first and the last witch of the Northern Borderline. She did not forget the reason why that man fought with his blood and did not forget her mission. Now, she could proudly tell that man that she had protected this land, even if it meant her death.

Although she was reluctant, she was the only one who could do this. She hoped that Lei Luo could understand her intentions.

Her body merged into the sky from the clouds, and not a trace of blood seeped out. Masanori Sakamoto disappeared under the moonless starry sky, just like her past, dissipating in the wind.

…

Lei Luo slept on the bed. His brows were tightly furrowed, and his heartbeat quickened. He was now in a strange dream. He could not see a single person in the white fog.

However, the feeling in his heart told him that he had lost something very important. This feeling made Lei Luo very uncomfortable.

“You’re here.”

An unidentifiable aura appeared in this space, accompanied by a pleasant male voice.

“Who are you?”

“You don’t need to know who I am.”

Lei Luo began to chat with the owner of this voice. He knew that the owner of this space had no intention of harming him. Otherwise, he would have died long ago after staying there for so long.

“You can call me Banzo. I am that sword, which was first owned by Tian Congyun.”

Frowning, Lei Luo carefully considered Banzo’s words.

“Don’t think too much. This is just a recording. I knew that I would meet you at this time. I know almost everything you said, so listen to what I have to say next.”

“When you heard this recording, Sakuraku Masanori had already merged into the Sky Cloud. Compared to you, you already have an incomplete saintly being. You have met the basic conditions to use the sky cloud.”

“However, the demon world is still very dangerous for you. I would suggest that you wait for a few months before coming back, but you definitely won’t listen. So, do your best to survive in the demon world.”

“Don’t say that you won’t enter the demon world. You don’t have a choice in this matter. Save your life. You will encounter another part of yourself.”

“Finally, I hope that you can protect this land well. This is my only wish.”

Feeling a huge force coming at him, Lei Luo still had many questions that he did not ask before he was chased out. Following the dizziness, Lei Luo woke up from his bed.

From the mouth of the man who called himself Banzo, Masanori Sakamoto had already merged into the sword with the tomes of Arcane. How was this possible?

Thinking about this clearly touched on Lei Luo’s blind spot. He did not know that Masanori Sakamoto’s words had so many other meanings. However, he did not insist on what that sword was like. Why would she do that?

At this moment, Lei Luo’s heart was filled with anger. If only he knew that the sword was so troublesome, he would not have wanted it. He regretted it in his heart, but he still rushed to the blacksmith shop.

As soon as he entered the blacksmith shop, he saw the huge smelting pool and Ge Tengzhai, who was sitting there in a daze with the sword in his hands.

“What happened?!”

Lei Luo shook Ge Tengzhai’s shoulders, trying to find out the ins and outs of this matter.

“Mr. James, Miss Sakamoto is the sword spirit of the sky from the clouds. This is her destiny. I know you want to ask me why I didn’t stop her, but there’s nothing I can do.”

Ge Tengzhai’s words were filled with regret for his actions. It was somehow an apology for Lei Luo. He had his own selfish motives, and there was nothing he could do about it. After all, he could participate in the reforging of a divine artifact, and it was his family heirloom.

With all these reasons added together, he was unable to reject Masanori Sakamoto’s request, but he had no regrets about dying.
