《Blade of shattered reality》v1 Chapter: 11 Arts of the concealed hidden sword
Advertisement
Fina-chan and I started our training with Rose-san for the two of us to improve our skills with the sword. So we went to the military encampment to train there early in the morning until nightfall came.
"First you will need to swing your sword for ten thousand times! Can you handle it?"(Rose)
"T-ten thousand times? Are you sure that you can swing it that many times Rose-san?"(Kyouko)
"Of course I can but the you also need to memorize the length and weight of the sword after that you will run for five hours without break."(Rose)
"F-five hours? Are you sure that this training is for humans Rose-san?"(Fina)
She smiled at the two of us and said.
"Yes this is the training i've recieved from my master so i'll pass it down to you. I know it's going to be hard but please bear with until the end okay?"(Rose)
The two of us clenched our fist with rage and said.
"Fine i'll make you eat those words. After this training i'll beat you in a sword fight remember that Rose-san"(Kyouko)
"D-don't worry about me Kyouko-sama I can keep up with your training so please don't mind me"(Fina)
And thus our training has begun. We swung our swords for hours until we have reached ten thousand and afterwards.
Even if I possessed in-human abilites I can still get tried at battle so Rose-san trained us both with endurance.
For the first week of training we suffered fatique because of their lack of training, but after the our first week the improvement on our stamina was seen. And now I can swing my sword for thousands of times without getting tired. And Fina-chan has also grew stronger since the first time I met her.
Afterwards Rose-san let's I rest for an hour before we can resume our training.
Then I asked Rose-san a question about her master.
"Who was your master that taught you the arts of the sword? Can you please tell me Rose-san?"(Kyouko)
Rose-san stopped reading the reports of the army for a while and said.
"Fine if you insist then I got no choice right master? So then i'll tell you"(Rose)
"He was a man that was named Sasaki kojiro and he said he was a legendary warrior from a far away land."(Rose)
"He told me that he came from another world but I didn't believe him at first. But his sword was forged made in a form that doesn't exist in this world"(Rose)
"Sasaki Kojiro? was his name right"(Kyouko)
Sasaki Kojiro was a famous swordsman sengoku period and the early edo period but he met his end on his duel with the famous miyamoto musashi.(Sengoku period is the warring state period of japan)
"Is he still alive? Can I meet him?"(Kyouko)
"I can't tell you where he is, but I can teach you the technique that he taught me. [Tsubame gaeshi] which was also called shallow reversal."(Rose)
I became excited to learn the famous technique of a legendary swordsman, so I stopped my break and continued training.
I practiced longer than before and my stamina's improvement was so great that I can now run for hours without breaking a sweat, I has swinged my sword for over a thousand times and there was no longer any sign of fatique and I ability on wielding the sword has also slighty improved.

"Now it's time for you to learn the technique named Tsubame gaeshi but if you don't have to learn it if you aren't interested so will you learn it or not?"(Rose)
"I'll do everything I can to learn it, so please teach me Rose-san!"(Kyouko)
"H-hai!(Yes)"(Rose)
"Now you will train on performing high speed strikes that can't be seen by the human eyes. It must be swift and fast while also maintaining a large amount of power in the strike. You will also need to strike downwards then upwards. After this training go and practice your swordsmanship with Fina-chan."(Rose)
I practiced the concealed attack called [Tsubame gaeshi] day and night but still haven't made any progress, while Fina-chan asked Rose-san to teach her a more direct type of swordsmanship. So Rose-san taught Fina-chan how to read the movements of her opponents, while also maintaining a safe distance from Rose-san.
They fought each other until Fina-chan's swordsmanship has improved. And after Rose-san saw Fina-chan's improvements she stopped fighting her and said.
"You've improved quite well after three months of training you are finally this skilled at wielding a sword. I'm impressed that you've improved this fast when I was being trained by my master it took me five years of training to be as skilled as him"(Rose)
"Really so can you analyze my status as an adventurer?"(Fina)
"Well I don't mind if Elaine-san analyzes your parameters but you still can't be an adventurer you know?"(Rose)
"I don't want to an adventurer because it's the profession that killed both of my parents."(Fina)
Rose-san left Fina-chan to rest while she went to the adventurer's guild to ask Elaine-san to analyze her status parameters.
After an hour Rose-san arrived along with Elaine and she brought a card that's different from an adventurer's card.
"Let's see how skilled Fina has became within five months of training"(Rose)

"Wow her status is also very high for her age with more training you can grow even stronger"(Rose)
"R-really?"(Fina)
"Yeah I'm sure that you'll surpass me within another year if you kept training everyday so do your best"(Rose)
"I-I will so let's get stronger together Rose-san"(Fina)
After three months of practicing I finally managed to master the technique named [Tsubame gaeshi].
Afterwards I asked Fina-chan to have a sparring match with me and she humbly accepts, so we went outside of town and went to an isolated area, then the two of us took a distance between each other and the two of us readied our swords and took our swords-stance and started our match.

Fina-chan ran towards me at full speed, it seems the difference in speed between us isn't as big as i've thought, she's moving at a lightning fast speed which was faster than the speed of sound, I felt like magical energy was gathering in her body, so she must be using [strengthening] to increase her speed to this extent.
Clang!Clang!Clang!Clang!Clang!Clang!Clang!Clang!Clang!Clang!
Our swords clashed against each other with lightning fast movements, Fina-chan was trading blows with me despite our difference in power, it's not like her sword skills are superior, but rather it seems like she's always one step ahead of me.
Clang!Clang!Clang!Clang!Clang!Clang!Clang!Clang!Clang!Clang!
The two of us continued to exchange blows for over an hour and there's no sign of fatigue from either one of us and the thrill of combat filled my mind with satisfaction, Then the two of us leaped back taking distance against each other, Afterwards Fina-chan smiled at me and said.
"Is this enough Kyouko nee-san?"(Fina)
"I told you to stop calling me that in public!!!"(Kyouko)
It's really embarrassing to be called like that in public, so I leaped towards Fina-chan due to the embarrassment I took action without thinking and I fell to Fina-chan's trap, she knew that i'll be embarrassed if she called me Kyouko nee-san so she used that to used that to make me lose my cool and caused me to take action without thinking and that created an opening to attack.
She easily evaded my attack and quickly delivered a swift counter attack, and since I lost my balance trying to attack her I didn't fully managed to fully protected myself from her attacks and the sound of our swords clashing against each other was heard.
Ting!Ting!Ting!Ting!Ting!Ting!Ting!Ting!Ting!Ting!
Drip!Drip!Drip!
I took a distance from Fina-chan, I was surprised that she's managed to give me an injury, after hearing the dripping sound from my elbow and when I looked at it blood was dripping she I smiled at her and said.
"Not bad Fina-chan I guess I need to practice more huh? anyway here I come!"(Kyouko)
I used [strengthening] to increase my leg and arm strength and I ran towards Fina-chan at full speed.
Ting!Ting!Ting!Ting!Ting!Ting!Ting!Ting!Ting!Ting!
The two of us continued to clash swords against each other with inhuman speed then Rose-san approached us and said.
"Okay that's enough, accept my energy and gather come forth and heal their injuries [Sacred Light]."(Rose)

Meanwhile Rose-san continued to recruit soldiers into our army and now our army is over three million. She managed the military and improved the agriculture of the country.
Our lands also grew more and more countries decided to join the republic and thus increasing the lands that the country controls.
I successfully managed to create a massive golem army of a million and she also managed to learn more about magic. And I introduce them the wooden rifles, I gave the Rose-san the blueprints and Jinta-kun started the production of these new weapons, I created these for those who can't fight in close range. With my knowledge about guns I invented my own version of rifles. I guess this is also thanks to Shiro-san's gift of knowledge.
With the growth of the republic of sakuragami the demon king's might is now in question and if they don't take action soon then they will become a threat to the power of the demon king's army. So I took caution while we continued to prepare for war.
But another great threat shall approach the republic soon enough. Can the republic withstand the new threat that shall soon approach them?
