Jaune Reincarnated - as a Sword

Chapter 20

Spider's Web Dungeon

The Adventurers entered and discovered that it was still inhabited with Grimm Arachnids

The Rank E Adventurers all were lively as they took most of the work taking out the creeps

Dave even boasted that the higher levels can rest easy as they got it and he proved that he has the skills to back it up but he was still an ass in the making

Amanda told the stories of when the dungeon was active during her newbie days and Fran was surprised that the adventuring life style was really the most accepted job than Huntsmen

The veteran adventurer warned them about using fire as it is the Spider's weakness it would be a waste of materials as their webbing was used for enhanced silk for combat attires

Cruise: please be careful in using flames and that goes for you too miss Fran.

The White Knight emerged from the sword once again

Jaune: are you treating my daughter like she's an arsonist in the making?

Cruise: I'm sorry if it came out like that but I'm just reminding her to be careful as we are in an enclosed space and the deeper we go the less air we get. We don't want to suffocate down here.

Jaune: I'm watching you Cruise.

He then disappears back into Fran's sword

Amanda took that chance to ask Fran about the White Knight

Amanda: So you're the White Knight's daughter?

Fran: mhm.

Amanda: we all thought he was a fairy tale.

Fran: me too. But we met in the desert and he took care of me.

Amanda: is he just a Spirit?

Fran: he was cursed to be trapped in the Sword on my back.

Amanda: cursed? Why?

Jaune then decided to reveal it to her as he sees that she is trust worthy

Jaune: I failed. And for that I was banished into this sword.

Amanda had stars in her eyes and grabbed his hand and shook it

Amanda: it's so amazing to meet the legendary Rusted Knight! I always read your Tale to the children in the Orphanage! A lot of them grew up to be strong Adventurers!

Jaune: uhhh...your welcome? I didn't know I was that inspirational. I thought I was only the childish ones to view the fairy tale like it was something that could be lived out.

Amanda: your too modest a lot of the strongest in Vacuo actually were inspired by you!

But a question remains, why are you here?

Jaune: for her.

He looks to Fran and that got Amanda interested

Jaune: all my life I always wanted to help people....but with her......I wanted to.....I wanted to be something more than just a Hero....

I wanted to help raise and nurture her....I..

Amanda: wanted to be her Father.

Jaune: yeah.....

Amanda: everyone has the right to yearn for a normal life and throughout your story you deserve it. I'm just glad Fran is in good hands.

Jaune: hmm.....I need to go back to the sword I can only maintain my form for a limited time.
