Re:Zero - Jobless Reincarnation: Succubus Sword God? I don't recognize it!

Chapter 179 Winter is coming, the sword is hidden but not released

Boreas House.

Atrium, afternoon.

The sound of the wooden sword tearing through the air never ceases every day.

The air shook in front of the increasingly similar brother and sister's eyebrows, messing up their hair.

Then, as the two looked at each other, it rose into the air.

Climb over the black tiles on the roof.

The crisp aftertaste is ethereal.

Blown away by the wind.

The 'old' has not yet completely dissipated.

The 'new' buzz sounded again!

Accompanied by Alan's quick scolding!
"Not enough! Come again!"

Alan swung his leg and kicked Alice, who had hastily assumed a Water God Style blocking stance with her sword held upright in front of her.

He kicked her and sent her flying.

"whispering sound!"

With a clang, the wooden sword flew away from Alice's face as she gritted her teeth! The blade flew out of her hand, spinning in front of the two of them like a windmill in a hurricane!

Alice's body flew into the air, and she made a reluctant sound.

The words have not yet fallen.

The next moment!
The sword was spinning in the air at high speed, but Alice caught it with one hand, and grabbed the hilt accurately. Her body hovering in the air was like a fiery red butterfly.
He kicked the tree next to him suddenly!

It hit Allen's body like a cannonball!
The figure passed through the air and there was a roar of air!
He swung his sword and pointed the tip straight at Alan's face.

The sword blade cut through the biting winter wind, but it couldn't cut through the air in front of Alan's face.

The two looked at each other.

The tip of the sword was still trembling.

But no progress was made.

Alice stabbed the air 'barrier' in front of Allen.

Behind the barrier are dark grey eyes.

His eyes were as calm as a still pond, conveying only one message.

'Not fast enough!'

Alice gritted her teeth and swung the sword towards Alan's neck.

"Won't they be cold?"

Under the tree, Rudy's eyes blew out through his mouth, and mist rose up as he turned to look at Gileno beside him.

"The fighting spirit is wrapped around the surface of the body, which can keep out the cold. They won't feel cold."

Gilenu was serious.

Rudy's mouth twitched, and he looked at the 'sexy' muscular female outfit that Gileno wore all year round, and nodded in frustration.

"merciful!"

While speaking, he blew a breath on his hands and rubbed them vigorously.

The fierce "fight" between the two people was heard in the sight, and in the peripheral vision, the beast girl in the distance was sweeping the snow under the corridor bridge connecting the guest room area and the living area.

With a flutter, a ball of white snow fell from the tree above his head and landed in front of his feet.

The sword blade whistled continuously.

Before we knew it, winter has arrived.

Even though Rudy was wearing quite a bit of clothes, and his college attire had padded lining, he still couldn't keep out the cold.

Although there are many people seen in Boreas’s mansion every day, this popularity cannot dispel the chill at all.

What's more, the Boreas Mansion was built on the mountains, and even though it was in the bustling city of Roya, it was actually colder than Buena Village.

In this round, the body's ability to resist the cold is much worse than last week because it has not deliberately learned swordsmanship.

Just when he was wondering whether he should cast a fireball to warm himself up, he heard Gileno's admiring voice.

"Alan's 'knife' is faster."

Rudy twitched his lips and looked at Gileno in confusion.

"Knife?"

Turn around.

In the sight, Alan's body was leisurely strolling in the garden under the attack of Alice's afterimage.

No, not strolling.

He didn't move a step, just stood there and kept raising his hands.

There is no blade in the hand.

There is no knife on the waist either.

Another season has passed since the last time I swung my sword in October.

It is winter, mid-January.

Allen
It had been three months since he had swung his sword on the eaves. Likewise, he hadn't even swung his sword in the past three and a half months.

But for some reason, Rudy felt that Allen didn't have a knife on him, and the sharp feeling all over his body was so real that it even hurt his eyes.

Like
On a snowy night in the valley, Alan returned to the bedroom and glanced back.

But Alan's knife had been damaged in the snow valley.

No knife either
Thinking of this, Rudy asked.

"Kilenu, are you referring to the sharp edge that Allen has?"

As he spoke, he turned and looked at Gileno again.

In her sight, Gileno's index finger, which was hugging her chest, kept "patting" her strong arm, making a slight popping sound.

It sounds very 'solid'.

Gileno stared at Alan, who was as steady as a rock under Alice's rapid sword attack.

"Rudy, do you know that there are not only three sword styles, namely the Sword God Style, Water God Style, and Northern God Style? I once heard from my master that there is a kind of unorthodox sword style where swordsmen stop swinging their swords after they become adults at the age of 15 and just keep their swords in the scabbards."

Rudy looked at her in surprise when he heard that.

Does this world also have a school of thought similar to the one in the comics of my previous life that allowed me to cultivate the sword spirit?

"What kind of swordsman is this if you keep your sword in its scabbard?"

Gileno looked at Alan and was silent for a moment.

"Shit swordsman."

"what?"

Gileno twitched his ears and turned to look at Rudy, whose face was still serious.

"Master said, 'shit swordsman'."

The corners of Rudy's mouth twitched, and he once again refreshed his understanding of this sword god whom he had never met.

He is full of foul language and thinks he is the only boss in the world.

Gilenu spoke again.

“This school of thought seems to be holding back.”

She frowned and thought for a moment before she uttered two words.

"Strength, yes, holding back a burst of strength. Although the master sneered at this style of swordsman, and said something like 'You can only swing a sword once in your life, what's the use? I am only going to chop down these pretentious and useless swordsmen.' But..."

"but?"

"Master also said that the first sword they unsheathe, the first sword that releases this 'power', will be very fast and very strong."

Rudy exhaled.

That's right, this is in line with his imagination of the master in the comics who hides his sword and does not use it.

"But Alan seems different."

"Not the same?"

Jilenu was a little at a loss for words. She thought for a long time before she spoke again.

"Based on the current level of Allen's use of fighting spirit and his momentum, if I'm not mistaken, he has regained his 'desire', but he has not released this 'desire'. He is just holding his breath. Sorry, I can't find the right words for the moment."

"I think Alan is waiting for a response."

Gileno turned to look at Rudy, who chuckled, showing a rather complacent expression, and easily reached out to hug the back of his head.

"Response?"

Rudy winked at her.

"Wait for the response that will completely ignite the desire."

Suddenly, a rapid neighing sound interrupted their conversation.

"Ho!"

With a loud cry, Alice slashed at Allen's neck with a knife.

But in the direction where her blade was slashing.

Alan had already placed his palm on the neck.

The young lady clenched her teeth fiercely.

A sword hit Allen's palm, and as expected, the opponent used the flow secret to neutralize the force.

The next moment, her body was thrown backwards by Allen with the flow secret technique.

She took a step, as if she had anticipated Allen's response. She used the momentum to pass by Allen and stepped behind him!
Turn around and swing the sword.

The sword comes with manual operation.

There was a gleam in her eyes.

The sword in his hand seemed to hiss and instantly dissipate in the wind, and he actually raised his hand and lightly thrust out the sword.

The wind has stopped hissing.

But faster!
Pointing directly at Allen's back!
　Jump in time – foreshadowing – plot point – provide motivation – jump in time plot point – climax of the tenth birthday party.

　　It is expected to reach a climax within a week. If you don’t want to see the emotional plot unfold, just wait for the subsequent chapters to jump to the climax and see the result directly. The chapter names will be very obvious by then.

　　No need to rush, the story goes straight to the climax without finishing off the hidden threads, and the character setting collapses, so it will be impossible to write the whole book afterwards.
