Jobless Reincarnation: The King with a Mental Problem

Chapter 192 Filial Guga

[Aisha's Perspective]

"It's been several months since the magical disaster..."

My father and Alucard are very powerful; they travel incredibly fast. Even if they were on the other side of the world, the Demon Continent, they would have returned long ago.

But there's still no news at all...

Alucard too, so it's very likely that both of them are in trouble...

"But before, when my brother was able to travel back and forth between Sharia, Roya, and Mom in a short time, wasn't it because he used Lord Ankylosaurus's aerial fortress teleportation array?"

Noren doesn't seem to know his father's abilities.

"Even without Lord Ankylosaurus's magic circle, Dad is very fast. He fought with Alucard before, carrying a strange thing on his back. It is said that he was even faster than Alucard and once suppressed Alucard."

So, if we're just talking about speed, Dad should be faster than Alucard...

But now too much time has passed...

Everyone behind them stopped moving; there was no sound at all. What were they thinking about?

My mother is probably worried about my safety.

Noren was probably worried about Paul, so she wanted to go find him.

Nina must have felt sorry for Noren; Noren needed her help more than I did.

Kino... God knows what that android was thinking...

Anyway, it shouldn't be as much as I'm thinking, right?

I actually knew...

Dad is very strong, he's amazing...

His absence now must be due to something more important...

But what if?

What if something really happens, such as serious injury or other accidents?

But Charlia is just too remote in this world...

I'm not receiving any messages...

One person can only worry and overthink...

The more I let my mind wander, the more anxious I became, which is why I wanted to rush into practicing swordsmanship and magic to distract myself.

And if I were strong enough, maybe I could be of help...

But the more I practiced, the more anxious I became...

I'm still too young. If I were older, I might be able to do more.

"So... Aisha... what do you want to do?"

"I...I don't want to stay here any longer..."

I want to go to Saint-Milis to help Grandpa Paul build an intelligence network, so that if something happens to Dad, we can know about him immediately...

after all......

Grandpa Paul looks a bit slow...

And for some reason, I always felt that he wasn't very reliable, and he was also the type who easily overthinks things on his own.

"My dad... isn't that stupid... it's just that you're too smart, Aisha. Compared to you, everyone else seems like an idiot..."

"well......"

Norren's words do make some sense, but my dad was just a child too. My mom told me that he was less than eight years old when he took her away from home to the Holy Land of Swords...

If the adults were more reliable and did a better job, Dad would probably prefer to stay home quietly...

So, is it my turn now?

Unfortunately, I'm not as capable as my dad...

"Then let's go! I've actually wanted to go to Saint Milis for a long time to see the legendary Holy Sword Avenue! And you've even come up with a reason!"

Nina is such an optimistic idiot...

Although she and her brother Kino are already sword saints.

But I still feel like the Sword Saint isn't that powerful...

"Isn't it because I always feel like Nina is lying? Are you really a sword saint?"

"Of course...it's the Sword Saint! My father is the Sword God!"

"..."

"Hey... don't look at me like that..."

"Sister Nina, you hesitated just now..."

"A half-step Sword Saint...is also a Sword Saint..."

"Huh? What's a half-step sword saint?"

"According to the new swordsman strength classification given by my father, the realms of advanced swordsmen are divided into early advanced, mid-advanced, late advanced, advanced perfection, half-step sword saint, early sword saint..."

Kino's strength is equivalent to that of a Sword Saint in his early stages.

This young lady possesses the strength of a half-step Sword Saint!

Although I don't know how to use the Light Blade yet, as long as it's not a genuine Sword God style Sword Saint!

They wouldn't last more than a few rounds against me!

And Dad even told him that my skills are already up to par, and I'm only one step away from mastering the Light Blade!

"Doesn't that mean he's still not a Sword Saint?"

Why are you so fixated on this?

"Dad said that by Dad's standards, if we can't even beat a Sword Saint, then this world is still too dangerous, let alone us who are just a bunch of kids."

"Hey, feed me... Your standards are way too high!"

"Of course it's high, I know it's because your father is too powerful, he doesn't even put the Sword Saint in his eyes..."

"But in the Holy Land of Swords, many people can wield the Blade of Light; they are all Sword Saints."

"Although there are many sword saints in the Holy Land of Swords, there are also many who are not even sword saints and cannot enter the main dojo. Many people regard being able to learn the Light Katana as an honor."

"But my dad also said that the Blade of Light isn't actually that difficult. It's the kind of thing you can learn by mastering the techniques and tricks and practicing a lot. But even you, Nina, and Kino don't know how to do it..."

I was a little harsh with my words, I almost called Nina an idiot. Because I looked at the manual my dad left behind, I also think the Light Blade isn't actually that difficult.

"Um...it seems...that's what my dad thought too...saying that the Sword Saint isn't anything special..."

"As expected, that's what Uncle Gar meant too."

Are you trying to say I'm an idiot?

"I didn't~ You said it yourself~~~"

"Tch~ How unlovable~"

Nina hesitated for a long time before trying to find a way to explain herself.

"I'm actually quite skilled. I just followed my dad's advice and focused my energy on practicing the Silent Katana Combo!"

As Nina spoke, she drew the magic sword she had taken from Ben Guga and began to swing it!

He unleashed a powerful, silent double strike with his katana.

That does look pretty impressive...

"Dad said that the Blade of Light is just an upgraded version of the Silent Blade. I am only one step away from being able to wield the Blade of Light. It is the kind of thing that I can automatically learn as I grow older."

Now, I'm practicing the transitions between moves in advance. When I can finally wield the Blade of Light, I'll be able to leap several minor realms and reach the late stage of Sword Saint in one fell swoop!

More stupid Kino!

This young lady is the Holy Maiden of a sect.

He's a genius too!

It's just that your dad and that idiot Kino are too scary, apart from the two of them.

"If I focus solely on practicing the Blade of Light, I'll definitely become the youngest Sword Saint!"

"Wow... Nina is amazing..." (Aisha reads this without any emotion)

"Tch~ That's just a perfunctory response..."

"Anyway, Nina, you always brushed me off like this before... By the way, where's Zeno?"

"Kino... is very powerful... Even though he doesn't know the Light Blade, he can defeat many Sword Saints of the Sword God style just by using the Silent Blade Combo."

"Oh, and what about you, sister?"

"Um... occasionally..."

But then Norren interrupted.

"How could this be? Nina seems to be stronger, but doesn't she always beat Kino...?"

this......

How am I supposed to explain this to innocent little Noren...?

Should we just tell her that Kino is a pervert?

Before I could even think of an excuse, Nina kicked Kino...

never mind......

No further explanation needed...

Let her think what she wants...

Actually, I already knew this when Nina mentioned it.

She is indeed very capable.

Just like the secret manual left by his father, the Light Blade only explains the power generation techniques of each stance, and its proportion in the whole manual is very small.

In terms of swordsmanship, more emphasis is placed on the influence of fighting spirit and mindset, as well as the connection between various different moves.

Nina's skills are probably good enough now; she just lacks the physical enhancement that comes from battle aura.

Later, whether it was due to a change in mindset or natural growth in age, she was able to learn the Light Blade naturally, so Uncle Gal taught her the later parts in advance.

But while Kino is more skilled, he's still too young, lacks strength and stamina, and doesn't know magic or anything like that...

But it shouldn't be a big problem...

As long as I can instantly kill a high-level swordsman, that's fine.

After all, according to my mother, a high-ranking swordsman can join the Royal Knights or even open their own small dojo...

It seems that's how my maternal grandfather was...

You should have made all the necessary preparations by now, right?

But when I got back to the table and looked down at the soup in my bowl, I was still a little scared.

Do I really have to leave home?

But what if Dad is alright, just temporarily held up by something, and when he gets home he can't find us...?

At that moment, Nina came and hugged her!

"What are you afraid of? I'll protect you! Maybe when you're in danger, I'll break through my limits and become a late-stage Sword Saint!"

Nina is such a silly optimist...

but......

Try trusting her just this once...

"Then I'll have to ask Nina to stand in front of me and protect me. After all, I'm going to be the Shadow Queen who will rule the world in secret in the future. If I fall prematurely, it will all be your fault."

"Um!"

Nina is so imposing...

"As for using your brain, leave that to Ben Guga."

Grandpa Paul doesn't seem very bright.

If it were Ben Guga, he could definitely do better in some details.

What Grandpa Paul can find is a group of ordinary people who have lost their families due to the disaster and are willing to follow him around to find people.

They are enthusiastic and hardworking, but most of them have not received complete training.

There are only a few who can fight, and even fewer who can write and calculate.

Although Grandpa Paul is very proactive and excels at leading by example, he doesn't seem to be the type of person who does paperwork or is good at making a group work efficiently.

Moreover, information transmission in this world is very slow.

After everyone disperses, it often takes a long time for messages to be relayed back, and the messages that are relayed back are often disorganized.

Perhaps we could divide the search teams in each region into "search teams" and "liaison teams".

Those who are fast and capable should go to the front lines.

Those who can speak, know the way, and do arithmetic stay in town and are responsible for maintaining good relationships with the Adventurers' Guild, the church, and the innkeepers, and for collecting information on guests and refugees.

This way, we won't end up in a situation where everyone goes out and nobody knows where anyone is...

As long as we leave our information along the way, no matter where Dad is, he can find us as long as he sees our information...

And we can also help other people affected by the magical disasters..."

While I was thinking, someone suddenly hugged me from behind...

"Aisha-neechan is so amazing! So smart!"

You scared me...

Oh, it was that idiot Noren...

This guy's big eyes sparkled as he looked at me...

Judging by age, she should be a little older than me...

According to seniority, I should even call her aunt...

never mind......

I don't want to think about it anymore...
