Tbate-The Reincarnates

Magic and Swordsmanship: Part 1

A moderately curved katana, it caught my attention for the demonic aura it emitted.

Its color scheme is generally dark, thus blending perfectly with the demonic aura that comes out of it, the blade has an irregular flame-shaped hamon along its black bo-hi, the tsuba is clover-shaped, with each lobe hidden in the back. medium and thick. The tsuka is dark black lacquered, as is the saya, with both being embellished with themes of simple, light, five-petaled flowers.

The kashira and kojiri are alike in appearance, being large with clover cutouts to match the tsuba; the kojiri has an additional highlight, which appears to be a wide ring with buttons above it. Three pieces of cord are present on the sword, one directly above the kashira, another on the saya just below the mouth with two hanging and adorned ends and another cord further down on the saya. Also, a small bandage is present on the tsuka for better grip.

As soon as I took the sword, I felt all the hairs on my body stand on end, because it was sucking my mana.

"What a peculiar choice." Vitch commented, "Usually the demonic aura Hades' wrath emits drives people away, but as expected you were different." Vitch paused briefly to watch Hades' wrath suck my mana after that she continued to speak, "Know that this katana is an extremely difficult sword to wield, only Marvus was the only one to have tamed it. Unlike Hades 'wrath has a will of its own because it was forged from the mana core of Hades the person who was once known by the asuras themselves as the king of hell, as you yourself have noticed it sucks its user's mana this along with their own. own excessive amounts of mana, your forcing attacks much more powerful than intended if you can't control it. If you were a normal mage all your mana would have been drained immediately including the mana that formed your core, just like Hades she is merciless."

"Oh...looks like I'm going to have to become the hell king." Vitch's words scared me a little, but they still got me even more excited for the first time since coming into this world I'm having real challenges and that's very exciting.

I kept Hades' wrath in my dimensional ring, yet I could still feel it sucking my mana but now in a much smaller amount than before.

"Follow me, let's go to the training room."

"OK."

We left the lab and found ourselves in a bright hallway with an arched ceiling stretching from where we stood, walls mysteriously carved over every facet and visible corner. The engraved runes made it look more like a memorial than lavish decoration; they seemed to have a meaning and purpose of their own. Simple chandeliers hung overhead, and the white light gave off a cold, emotionless air, reminding me of hospitals in my old world.

We walked in silence, only the echoes of our footsteps filling the hallway, and for the first time since I got here, I spotted a window.

I stopped walking and looked outside, I could see an infinite purple sea that contracted perfectly with the practically white sand that the coast had, I injected mana in my eyes to be able to see better the forest that was a few kilometers from the beach , can beasts and animals that I had never seen in any of the books on animals and mana beasts that Dicathen had, along with the animals there were also many kinds of trees and fruits unknown to me.

"And a spectacular view isn't it." Vith's voice sounded beside me.

"Yeah, where are we Vitch?"

"We are in Opheans the castle of the Djin, feel honored to be able to set foot here." Vitch teased, but his teasing expression was soon replaced by a gentle expression as he took his black eyes from the landscape outside the window and let them roam around the castle, she was most likely remembering the good times she'd had here.

"We will." Vitch spoke as he walked back across the floor that was made of marble.

After a few more minutes of brisk walking we arrived at what was the Opheans castle training room.

"Lancelot," Vitch said firmly as we entered the training room which had a very simple interior compared to the rest of the castle, "just to confirm I'll ask again...you are capable of putting your life on the line. "

"Yes I am," I replied, Vitch explained to me that one hour outside was equivalent to twelve in here, that means one day outside would translate to twelve days here bone meant that we would have 120 days to train in here after finishing to explain this Victh smiled, she moved her right arm up and slapped my chest, as she made it feel my own soul leave my body, not just in a metaphorical sense but in a real way.

"What happened?" he said startled as he watched my body lying on the floor.

"You will fight me in an astral state and you will die... again and again."

Even in my astral state I was still able to use my dimensional ring, so I took Hades' wrath out of it.

Vitch also took out the pair of daggers she had taken before after that he also entered the astral state.

I moved Hades' wrath forward and as Vitch had spoken my attack came out much stronger than I wanted.

I knew Vitch would be able to parry my attack, but one didn't imagine that she would do it as easily as she did.

"You'll have to tame the beast in your hands before you can dream of beating me." With Victh's words ringing softly in my ears, a sharp pain forced my eyes open as I looked down and saw the dagger she had in her hand piercing my chest, bloodless.

"Damn it." As the word left my mouth, my soul was sucked back into my body and my hands shot to my chest, searching for a hole that wasn't there.

"Well, it's time to start training again. Are you ready, Lancelot?"
