Jobless Reincarnation: The King with a Mental Problem

When we returned to the Land of the Sword Saint...

The Shadow Lord's butt got bruised and battered...

Because when the little dragon king returned, although his wounds had been treated with healing magic, the bloodstains on his clothes were still there, and he went crying to Old Deng to complain.

To be fair, besides martial arts, Old Deng might also have some talent in music and art.

Because Old Deng remained silent, he simply gritted his teeth and continued playing his instrument.

"Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah!~~~~"

"Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah!~~~~~~~"

Perhaps I, too, possess some talent for singing.

And so, under Old Deng's direction, I, the King, finished singing "Symphony of Destiny" in the Holy Land of Swords.

【after a while】

finally......

The concert at the Holy Land of Swords has ended, and Old Deng is conversing with his instrument.

"I trusted you, that's why I let you take them out! And you almost killed my daughter?!"

I don't know how to explain this.

This was my plan from the very beginning; I personally designed every step, and among the steps I designed...

It certainly doesn't include Nina taking the blow for Kino and losing so much blood...

I could come up with a whole bunch of excuses, like she charged in on her own, your daughter was just clumsy, you could have controlled the situation, and in the end, nothing happened...

But I cannot say these words...

Because I still feel somewhat guilty...

"It's my fault..."

"If I ever believe you again, I'll be a dog."

Then they continued to beat me, but this time they didn't hit my buttocks; they started hitting my back, the kind that looks fierce but doesn't actually hurt much...

cut......

This old dog, all it has to do is talk, its teeth are actually dull!

Then, I don't know if it was a whispered "tsk."

Old Deng overheard it.

The fake fight turned into a real fight...

After some time...

I, the king, lay sprawled on Mambo's horse, being dragged home by him...

The injuries on my buttocks and back had been secretly healed with magic along the way.

But let's pretend a little longer...

Because Nina was still laughing and peeking, what if she said she hadn't had enough, and Old Deng rushed over and beat me up again? That would be such a waste...

[The days that followed]

My military training is over, and then I kicked Little Dragon King out of the teaching plan.

That's right!

I'm so angry with her!

Look what she's done to my precious eldest son, Kino!

From that day on, I will only teach Kino.

But......

After a while, Kino's world collapsed...

Oh......

hehe......

Later, I learned that Nina had regrouped her old group, modified those inhuman training methods, and then used them on children younger than herself...

Old Deng didn't care at all, and even seemed a little relieved when he talked about it.

They keep saying their daughters are so cool, but these kids used to be much more presentable...

Little Kino, looking at Nina, could only drool...

You follow my sword every day but never practice seriously, and you're always distracted during massages...

what?

I'm not a pervert, why should I cater to this guy's special fetishes?

That's impossible!

So when my little brother asked me if he could help Nina out, I agreed.

After tossing Kino a sword that would burst into flames when infused with magic, he kicked the pervert away as well.

"Thank you, big brother!"

"roll!"

Oh shit!

Did you kick him and make him feel good?

From that moment on, the children of the Holy Land of Swords faced their darkest hour.

Nina now drags the kids out of bed before dawn every day and makes them run laps around the training ground. After running, they practice sword swinging, and after that, they practice sparring.

Occasionally, you can hear Nina cursing in various ways.

And little Kino...

Watching him lie down and act as a chair for Nina.

Then she looked blissful...

I know perfectly well that this kid is beyond saving.

May those two perverts be locked up forever...

However, I haven't lost out entirely; at least I've achieved my goal.

First, has Kino's relationship with Nina really improved, or was their relationship always good?

Although their relationship wasn't exactly...healthy...

But that's how it is...

Secondly, I want to build a good relationship with Kino, because perhaps in the future, this strongest pure love swordsman can be of use to me.

at present......

I guess you could say we've built a good relationship?

At least I received his gift.

one......

Cool, black, with several metal rings, leather strap...

At first, I thought it was some kind of sexual innuendo, but later I found out that he had stolen his Sword Emperor father's sword pendant...

So filial...

Thirdly, I have already witnessed the legendary secret technique of the Sword God of Pure Love.

Kino's idea for the finished product is probably a combination of the Light Blade, Light Reflection, and some ideas from the Water God Style.

Light reflection is a technique where a swordsman of similar skill level uses the Sword God style to counter another swordsman of the same style.

Most swordsmen need a preparatory stance to use the Light Blade, but Light Counter is about anticipating the opponent's intentions first, analyzing the opponent's stance the instant they adjust it, and then using a stance that counters the opponent's to swing the Light Blade and defeat them.

this......

Can it really be considered a technology?

Anyway, this is how sword-wielding practitioners have always trained. The prerequisite for this technique is that their skill levels are roughly equal. I can see Old Deng's movements now, but my body can't keep up...

Kino's approach, however, is not to compete with his opponent in who swings their sword first, but to swing their swords simultaneously with their opponent.

When swords clash, there's no need to worry about winning or losing. Even if you're at a disadvantage, as long as your vital organs aren't injured, it doesn't matter.

The Sword God style aims for the strongest single strike, but if that strike fails to kill, it will briefly reveal a weakness.

However, their own side withdrew their strength in advance, and the second sword they prepared was the real killing move.

When the opponent's stance shows an opening, use an even faster sword strike to kill them.

This move is the bane of the Sword God style, which pursues the strongest sword.

It should be quite effective against Hokushin-ryu. Even if the Light Blade isn't used at full power, it still exerts a strong pressure on Hokushin-ryu.

At the same skill level, even if you don't kill your opponent instantly with one strike, you'll create a second chance.

If the opponent of the Hokushin-ryu is stronger, it will be easier to deal with the Hokushin-ryu's fancy moves because he has held back his strength in advance.

The brief battle where Kino fought my dual-wielding style to a standstill was just like that.

But facing the Water God Flow...

If they're at the same skill level, the first strike, even if the opponent holds back, might be disrupted by [Flow] and their stance will crumble...

Furthermore, the transitions between the various stances and moves of the Light Blade require training.

The original plan was to work with Kino to fix the flaws in these moves, but unexpectedly, Kino went off to seek his own... happiness...

Now, I, the King, will personally perfect this move.

It doesn't matter if Kino doesn't train with me.

I'll just ignore him.

Because another plan is almost ready.

—Alucard AI Project.

For the past year, I have been cutting off a small part of my soul, waiting for it to slowly heal, and then continuing to cut it. The cut-off parts of my soul are stored in soul stones.

Originally intended only to study the functions of each part of the brain, but with the emergence of Project Alucard, I have a new plan: to create an AI.

This process sounds simple, but it feels like performing an amputation on yourself with a blunt knife, without anesthesia.

Each time a fragment of the soul is removed, it feels like scraping something from the brain with a rusty spoon...

But after scraping it so many times, I've gotten used to it...

It's become such a habit that even I find it a bit abnormal...

This AI is quite amazing.

At first, I was worried that once it was built, it might have its own ideas.

Will it become disobedient? Will it secretly rebel while I'm sleeping, forcing me to fight with the fragments of my own soul?

There was nothing.

Perhaps because they come from the same soul, they can unilaterally and completely control and perceive its thoughts and ideas.

It doesn't have any ideas at the moment...

It's just a tool.

A tool that doesn't need to eat, sleep, or have any worries, and won't complain even if you use it to its death.

The tool is now almost finished.

Then came combat training.

It's strangely similar to Oni-nako from Baki, and I, the King, am constantly fighting against the imaginary enemies of the Reality Marble in the real world.

Even more inexplicably, I can actually feel a sense of destiny in the real world...

To onlookers, the scene was truly frightening.

After all, standing alone in the wind and snow, constantly practicing against an imaginary enemy, and occasionally making some strange reactions...

Thankfully, nobody here knows the Jiahao meme...

Of course, there was another aspect to the plan behind creating this AI.

—The Secret Technique of Water God Style: Sensation

I previously learned the basic principle from Izelti: spread out your battle aura, then sense all the changes within it and analyze them...

To be honest, this is really quite mysterious...

but......

The old water goddess can sense and counter any attack from any angle without any blind spots. In the original work, she can even sense the flow of magic in Rudy's body and then cut off Rudy's hand.

This at least proves one thing.

Her perception must be extremely accurate.

The universal means of perception, regardless of the world, cannot do without one thing...

reflection......

Telescopes rely on light reflection, sonars rely on sound wave reflection, and radar relies on electromagnetic wave reflection.

The principle is simple—launch something, it hits the target and bounces back, then you receive the reflected signal, and after analysis, you can obtain the information you want.

Therefore, by using the diffused fighting spirit, a magical fluctuation similar to a radar pulse is released.

Then just enjoy the feedback.

The higher the frequency, the finer the fluctuations and the higher the accuracy of the feedback.

Adjust the frequency to the maximum possible limit.

Then......

The first time I tried doing this in the real world...

For a moment, my brain almost exploded!

Endless, overwhelming, and densely packed information that is suffocating.

A jumble of nonsense was being poured into my brain...

It's like I've given myself an immeasurable void...

Fortunately, the magic input was cut off in time.

Otherwise, I'm afraid I'll go insane...

Later, I lowered the frequency and reduced the precision.

But the results were still not good.

With my eyes closed, I could only vaguely sense that something was there, like touching something through a thick cotton cloth, the outline so blurry that I couldn't even tell if it was a person or a tree.

It's far from being suitable for actual combat.

Perhaps one should start practicing this technique from a young age, while the quality of one's battle qi is still not strong.

This technique trains the brain's information processing ability, allowing the neural structure to adapt to this amount of information during the developmental period.

Just like learning a foreign language, children learn much faster than adults because their brains are still developing.

But my fighting spirit is too strong.

It's incredibly powerful.

Perhaps it's because of the modified magic loop...

Perhaps it's because of training...

Perhaps it's because of my state of mind...

The result is that my current fighting spirit quality has forcibly dragged this body, which is not even ten years old, to its current state.

Using the realms of cultivation, in terms of physical strength and speed alone, he is at least at the late stage of Sword Saint.

As for other aspects, Old Deng said that as long as I grow up slowly, I will become the Sword Emperor.

He was only a step away; at most, he was just missing something...

But he couldn't quite put his finger on what was missing...

Therefore, it is now my own fighting spirit that is limiting my ability to learn the profound mysteries of the Water God Style...

Should I limit the quality of my fighting spirit and then slowly train it?

Don't be silly, Lord Shadow is laughing.

Lord Shadow simply needs a means of intelligence gathering.

Since our own brains can't handle it, let's create something that can.

For example, something that doesn't need to eat, sleep, or have any worries, and can be used to its fullest extent without any problems.

The new approach is slightly more complex:

The first step is to open the [Sense] of reverse training, turn the precision to the maximum, and stop trying to analyze what that information is all about.

The second step is to directly and crudely replicate everything within the perception range in real time, one-to-one, within the inherent boundary.

The third step is to use the inherent barrier to obtain comprehensive information.

The fourth step is to enable AI to accurately mimic the target's every move.

Fifth step: I know all of the other party's actions simultaneously from the soul level and prepare countermeasures in advance.

When this plan is completed, perhaps we can use this reverse training to secretly learn the moves of various powerful figures.

For example, why is Sword God Old Deng so strong?

For example, what is the principle behind the Water Goddess's stripping of the Sword Realm?

As long as I can copy it, it can be directly and crudely copied within the bounded field. Afterwards, I can slowly dissect the underlying principles and thoroughly learn those things.

Therefore, what needs to be done now is to train the information processing capabilities of AI, so that it can transform from a not-so-skilled tool into a useful tool that can analyze the entire battlefield in real time.

I'm now using it to practice against myself, trying to smooth out the gaps between Kino's ring-taking combos.

What I seek is the ability to continuously practice wielding the Blade of Light.

Strive to become an Atomic Samurai!

As for Kino's setup...

Let's call it the Second Company of Guangtai. I still have some doubts.

While this move is somewhat interesting, it's only somewhat interesting; it requires genuine skill to fully realize its potential.

In the original story, could Kino really withstand one of Old Man Deng's sword strikes without being defeated, and then unleash a second strike even faster?

Old Deng might be careless with his first strike...

But the second sword...

what?

Is Old Deng suffering from Alzheimer's?

If Harden doesn't have Alzheimer's, then the second swordsman is at least at a similar level to Harden.

This gives Kino a chance to take advantage of those slight time differences and defeat Old Man Deng...

only......

real or fake?

Old Deng's swordsmanship is simply godlike in my eyes...

That...sense of oppression...

That unparalleled sense of presence...

Could it be that the one I'm fighting and the one he's fighting aren't the same old Deng?

Or is it about eating forbidden fruit...?

Can it really make you stronger?

I thought about it for a while.

Then he picked up the forbidden fruit he had baked from the plate and took a bite.

The sound of the icing crumbling between your teeth is crisp and pleasant, and the juice mixed with the sweetness of caramel melts on your tongue.

The last rays of twilight outside the window sank, and the stars began to light up one by one.

Then I felt something tugging at my trouser leg.

Bow down.

Aisha stood beside me, her little hands gripping my trouser legs, her head tilted back, her big eyes fixed on the forbidden fruit in my hand.

Her eyes were like two black pebbles just pulled from the water, bright and round, never blinking.

There's a little bit of glistening stuff at the corner of my mouth; that's saliva.

My movements have stopped.

"...When did you arrive?"

"Daddy...I want..."

Honey... let's not eat the forbidden fruit...

Eh!

Got it!

He secretly flipped the forbidden fruit over, broke off the burnt and bitter part, and then held the burnt piece to her mouth.

She opened her mouth and took a bite.

I chewed it twice.

Surprisingly, I didn't vomit.

Surely not!!!

Don't try so hard to eat forbidden fruit!

Aisha glared at me defiantly, still chewing, her cheeks twitching, her expression serious.

After chewing about five or six times, finally...

The mouth stopped.

Then her little eyebrows furrowed, and her nose wrinkled too.

My eyes started to redden.

"Wow--!"

Okay...

At least I know that forbidden fruit doesn't taste good anymore...
