The Twilight Sword possesses both the attributes of a holy sword and a demonic sword.
The moment the world saw this sword, it caused a sensation, and many people even thought of the legendary strongest weapon – the King Dragon Sword!
The weapons produced by Muramasa have reached such a high level!
Chapter 141 Three Famous Swords! A World-Wide Frenzy!
The three weapons that Shirou forged in the name of Muramasa caused a huge sensation and waves at the auction.
First is the Primal Flame, a weapon used by Nero, the ancient Roman emperor of the original world. Its materials and construction are extraordinary, and its bold design and beast-like shape astonished all the swordsmen and blacksmiths the moment it appeared at the auction.
Although the sword's effect is not particularly special—it merely releases intense flames after being infused with magic and does not enhance the user's combat abilities—the design concept of the Primal Flame is far more awe-inspiring to blacksmiths. It's hard to imagine just how imaginative and unconventional the blacksmith's ideas were.
Many people even believe that this weapon is the incarnation of a red dragon, because both its shape and fire-breathing effects are exactly the same as those of a red fire dragon.
Finally, after a fierce bidding war, the blacksmith master from the Miners won the bid for the weapon.
It is said that when the master blacksmith of the mining tribe saw the weapon at the scene, his eyes widened, and he wished he could spend all his wealth and do everything he could to buy it.
In fact, he did achieve that.
According to eyewitnesses, when the master blacksmith of the Mining Tribe received the auction item, he almost went into a frenzy, muttering incomprehensible nonsense. He also immediately canceled the planned trade with the Kingdom of Asura and rushed back to the Mining Tribe's tribe overnight with his weapons.
This scene undoubtedly surprised everyone.
After all, the Miners are a race known for forging weapons, and the Mining God chosen by their race in each generation is even capable of forging demonic swords and holy swords.
It can be said that ordinary mine-dwelling blacksmiths are far superior to human blacksmiths; they are not even in the same league.
However, even the blacksmiths of the Mines couldn't help but feel a profound shock when faced with the Primordial Flame forged by Shirou, as if they were seeing something that had never happened before in this forged sword.
Such a feat undoubtedly surprised everyone.
Unfortunately, the Miners are a reclusive race, with many living underground, so most people are powerless to know how they will react.
Although the Primordial Fire had a unique composition, it ultimately had no practical effects, so when it was auctioned off, it did not generate a particularly strong response.
Just when everyone thought that the blacksmith Muramasa was nothing special and might just be a fame-seeker, Muramasa almost quickly released his third work.
That was the Cyclic Victory Sword forged by Shirou, from the Heroic Spirit Gawain.
It is a holy sword whose sword light extends like a rainbow.
As the sister sword to Excalibur, wielded by King Saber Arthur, Elysium of Victory, like Excalibur, was bestowed upon it by the Maiden of the Lake.
However, the Cyclone Victory is not a divinely created weapon like Excalibur. Emiya is fully capable of projecting it, and Shirou is naturally able to forge it as well.
As a holy sword, the hilt of the Sword of Victory is sealed with a sun-like image. Once infused with magic, it will immediately burst forth with light comparable to the sun.
The two sister swords have different effects.
Excalibur is a single-point focused anti-city Noble Phantasm, while Excalibur is a horizontal, radial Noble Phantasm used to wipe out approaching enemy troops.
Once fully unleashed, the internal simulated sun will activate, unleashing terrifying power almost as long as a rainbow, extending the sword to a visible extent and possessing the power to slice off the top of a hill.
Such an extravagant holy sword is something every swordsman dreams of.
Therefore, when the Sword of Victory appeared, it caused a frenzy of competition throughout the world, with various nobles and powerful figures eager to obtain this weapon.
Ultimately, the winner of the Sword of Victory at auction was someone who surprised everyone—the Pope of the Church of Milis from the Holy Kingdom of Milis.
His Holiness the Pope originally came to the Kingdom of Asra to discuss state affairs. His original plan was to discuss with the current king the proposal to further expand the Church of Milis in the Kingdom of Asra, and to build more churches and monasteries in the Kingdom of Asra that follow Milis.
The Pope attended the auction at the invitation of a noble friend.
The moment he saw the Sword of Victory and learned of its effects, His Holiness the Pope forgot all his previous goals, gave up all his savings, and fought with all his might to acquire the weapon.
The reason for this frenzy is that the Pope, upon seeing the Sword of Victory, immediately recalled the holy sword once used by Saint Milius, the founder of the Church of Milius.
The doctrines of the Church of Millicum include the following legend—
[Atmos 12:31. The righteous must endure in times of hardship, for it is in times of suffering that they best store up their strength. When the weak ask why, the righteous answer that the day of unleashing their power will surely come. When the army of the evil lord approaches, the righteous wield their holy sword. The sword cleaves mountains, cleaves forests, cleaves the sea, and cuts the evil lord in two.]
This is the story of Saint Milis wielding his holy sword to fight against the advancing demon army.
The Holy Sword was incredibly powerful. Starting from Milishion, it passed through the Azure Dragon Mountains and the Great Forest, and then even crossed the sea, reaching the place that is now the Port of Winn, where it instantly killed the Demon King.
Moreover, the path formed by the holy sword's cleavage was eventually named "Holy Sword Avenue".
The effects of the Sword of Victory are so similar to those of the Holy Sword wielded by Saint Milis that it is almost as if it were the legendary Holy Sword.
Therefore, His Holiness the Pope must obtain this holy sword no matter what, and make a decision to make it a national treasure of the Church of Milis, or even the Holy Kingdom of Milis!
This incident shocked the entire world.
It's truly a fantasy that a weapon crafted by a blacksmith could become a national treasure of the Holy Kingdom of Milis.
But all of this still happened.
This result drew the attention of almost everyone to the blacksmith named Muramasa.
Muramasa did not disappoint anyone and soon released his fourth work.
Before this piece even appeared, the entire auction was already buzzing with excitement, with people from all over the world, including some reclusive powerhouses who shouldn't have been there, showing up at the auction.
People are very curious about what kind of weapon Muramasa will release to showcase his miraculous forging skills.
The result was the appearance of Shirou's last weapon, the Fantasy Greatsword Tenma Lost.
Fantasy Greatsword: Fallen Demon, also known as: Demon Sword Balmong.
It is the holy sword that Siegfried wielded in the legend and used to slay the dragon. However, due to the overlap of legends, the story of the Great Demon Sword and the Demon Sword Gram is completely consistent. In addition to being a holy sword, it is also a demon sword, and its attributes can be transformed into either a demon sword or a holy sword depending on the user.
In conclusion, the attributes of the Fallen Demon are very special, arguably the most unique of all.
In this world, where weapons are generally distinguished only by their demonic or holy nature, the Heavenly Demon Greatsword is like a complete violation of common sense and the destruction of reason.
The only weapon that defied all conventions was the Dragon King Sword, forged by a legendary blacksmith.
That sword could even be described as a legend; most people have never seen its true form.
The Heavenly Demon Greatsword, however, is a genuine product, and its properties are exceptionally powerful.
First, if magic power is infused into the Heavenly Demon Greatsword, it can unleash a wide-range attack that truly shines only in combat. Because its former wielder was a king, it can be specialized for combat, unleashing semi-circular twilight-wave-shaped sword energy. Simultaneously, the greatsword itself amplifies the user's magic power, allowing the user to maximize the weapon's power with extremely limited magical energy.
This sword also possesses the characteristic of being particularly effective against dragon-type creatures. As long as the enemy is a dragon, or has dragon blood and dragon nature within them, the damage dealt will be doubled.
Faced with such a powerful weapon, all the major powers were naturally tempted.
Even Gravel, the first prince of the Kingdom of Asura, got involved, trying to obtain the famous sword from the legendary blacksmith Muramasa, just like his sister Ariel.
Yes, by this time, Muramasa's reputation had reached an unbelievable level.
Furthermore, when Muramasa sells weapons, he always makes a point of emphasizing that the user must be an honest and upright person.
Therefore, obtaining Muramasa's weapon is equivalent to gaining a huge buff, which can make others greatly respect you.
Such seemingly minor matters can unconsciously have a huge impact on the struggle for the throne.
Prince Gravel, in order to inherit the throne, would certainly not allow himself to fall behind his sister.
Of course, Gravel is not without rivals when it comes to obtaining the Heavenly Demon Greatsword.
Or rather, he had countless competitors, including powerful nobles and influential figures.
Among them, the most formidable competitor is the Dragon King Kingdom in the east of the continent.
Upon learning of the Heavenly Demon Greatsword, the Wanglong Kingdom swiftly dispatched people to purchase it, declaring that the Wanglong Kingdom must reclaim the Dragon-Slaying Sword no matter what.
After all, the Kingdom of Wanglong is located near the Wanglong Mountains, and is often harassed by lone dragons. They undoubtedly want to obtain this anti-dragon weapon for the Kingdom's Knights.
Faced with the demands of the top three superpowers on the continent to personally acquire this weapon, Gravel, as a prince, naturally had no power to object, much less compete with them.
However, to everyone's surprise, even the mighty Dragon Kingdom ultimately lost out on the ownership of the Heavenly Demon Greatsword.
The Heavenly Demon Greatsword eventually came into the possession of one person.
Once everyone learned the holder's name, they were all relieved.
The person who won the bid for the Heavenly Demon Greatsword is the current master of the Holy Land of Swords and the strongest swordsman of our time.
The current Sword God, Garfalion!
Chapter 142 The Sword God Who Bought the Heavenly Demon Greatsword!
It was common knowledge that the Sword God had appeared at the auction.
With Muramasa's weapons becoming increasingly popular at auctions, the royal capital's auctions have become the focus of global attention.
Not only important figures from various countries, but also the world's top experts and even the seven major powers have become interested.
The so-called Seven Great Powers refer to seven beings who stand at the pinnacle of the world. They may be of different races, have different abilities, or even be living people, but their strength is at the top of the world. Whenever they make a move, it will surely cause a huge upheaval.
The seven great powers, in order, are: [God of Skill], [God of Dragons], [God of War], [God of Demons], [God of Death], [God of Swords], and [God of the North].
The rankings are arranged by the first-ranked [God of Skills], who created a stone tablet called the Seven Great Powers and used a special method to fix the seven strongest people in the world on the stone tablet.
If the ranking of the seven great powers changes, or if a new great power emerges, the inscription on the stone tablet will automatically be updated to become a reliable reference.
Therefore, people generally use the stone tablets of the seven great powers to judge the seven people at the peak of their personal strength.
However, due to the special status of the seven great powers, the stone tablets do not directly display their identities, but are generally described in the form of code names.
Therefore, among the current seven major powers, only the identities of some individuals are known to the world.
The Sword God, ranked sixth, is one of them.
【Sword God】Galfarion, currently the strongest of the Sword God style and the master of the Holy Land of Swords.
He rose to fame at a young age, becoming invincible throughout the capital. He then traveled the world, challenging renowned experts in various regions, and almost never suffered a defeat in his life.
The only somewhat anecdotal story is that the Sword God once encountered the Dragon God, ranked second among the seven great powers, during his travels.
According to legend, the Sword God lost his courage to fight the moment he witnessed the Dragon God; it was the first time he dared not raise his sword against an enemy.
As for the details of the battle between the Sword God and the Dragon God, the world does not know. All that is known is that since then, the Sword God has always aimed to defeat the Dragon God, but everyone can sense how distant this goal is.
After all, the difference between the second and sixth place rankings of the seven major powers may seem small, but in reality, it is a world of difference.
The top four and bottom three of the seven great powers were not even in the same league; in fact, the gap between them was even greater than the gap between ordinary people and great powers.
No one believed that the Sword God could defeat the Dragon God.
Therefore, most people simply regarded the Sword God's desire to challenge the Dragon God as a false rumor and never believed it.
However, when the Sword God appeared at the royal auction and won the fantasy greatsword, the Fallen Demon, which was specifically designed for slaying dragons, many people immediately became unsettled.
After all, according to the description, the most important attribute of the Heavenly Demon Greatsword is the [Dragon Slayer] attribute it contains, which is doubly effective against enemies with the dragon attribute.
If an ordinary person were to buy the Heavenly Demon Greatsword, their goal might simply be to slay dragons, much like the Wanglong Kingdom, whose goal was basically to wipe out the dragons rampaging through the Wanglong Mountains.
But a being like the Sword God is capable of slaying dragons with ease.
His specific desire to buy a weapon for slaying dragons meant he wasn't targeting ordinary dragons.
If that's the case, then the answer is quite clear!
The Sword God did this specifically to kill the Dragon God Orsteed and surpass the Dragon God, who was ranked second among the Seven Great Powers!
In an instant, the whole world went crazy for it.
Everyone was curious whether the Sword God would go directly to challenge the Dragon God after acquiring the Heavenly Demon Greatsword.
Although the Dragon God Auersted is very mysterious, appearing and disappearing like a dragon, making it extremely difficult to find his location, if the Sword God has this idea, he will surely be able to find the Dragon God Auersted's traces.
Because there is a rumor that the Dragon God has an extremely terrifying appearance, which can make people's hearts stop when they see him, even more terrifying than watching a horror movie at night. So basically, once he appears, he will definitely leave a very deep impression on people.
If the Sword God were to utilize his connections, he would most likely be able to find the Dragon God quickly.
In that case, the sixth [Sword God] of the Seven Great Powers would challenge the second [Dragon God] of the Seven Great Powers.
With the Heavenly Demon Greatsword, even if the Sword God cannot defeat the Dragon God, he will likely deliver an extremely exciting battle that is sure to excite everyone.
Unfortunately, to everyone's disappointment, even after purchasing the Heavenly Demon Greatsword, the Sword God still did not intend to challenge the Dragon God, Orsteed.
He simply paid an unimaginable price, took the sword, and then returned to his sacred place of swords without looking back.
According to the people of the Holy Land of Swords, the Sword God Galfarion hung the Fantasy Greatsword, the Fallen Demon, on the highest peak of the Holy Land of Swords, indicating that anyone in the Holy Land who wants to challenge the Dragon God Orsteed can take the weapon for free, provided that the goal is to fight the Dragon God.
Such conditions meant that most of the Sword God School disciples who were eager to acquire the Holy Demon Sword dared not make any move.
Challenging the Dragon God is practically tantamount to courting death.
Even if one could obtain such top-tier weapons, no one would want to take on the challenge.
From that day on, the Heavenly Demon Greatsword became a symbol of the Holy Land of Swords, and the Sword God never changed his mind, still searching for a successor with the courage to challenge the Dragon God.
This is the final fate of the three swords forged by Muramasa.
