Sword of Light

Radeus silently dragged Rudeus away and tossed him aside like garbage.

After all those lines, I thought you were actually something.

He couldn't even take a single move from Eris. It seemed Rudeus was better suited to fighting Sukuna after all.

As usual, a whole pile of ridiculous boasts before the match, then instantly getting one-shot the moment he used his ultimate. Throw in some weakling mentality, and Rudeus could cosplay the little deer.

Sigh, back then, I'd wanted to reincarnate into Jujutsu Kaisen. I'd even been ready for Sukuna to come challenge me, only to end up in this godforsaken other world.

Speaking of which, where the hell are my cheats? Why haven't they been issued yet? Is this Reincarnation Space operated by Tencent?

"Forget this dumbass. Let's just practice ourselves. He's a total scrub. We all started training together at three, and this guy still hasn't even reached Intermediate Rank."

Radeus exposed Rudeus's shortcomings outright, sparing him no dignity whatsoever. If Rudeus woke up now, he would probably be too embarrassed to open his eyes.

"Speaking of which, are you an Intermediate Swordsman now, Eris?"

Radeus asked Eris.

"That's right!"

Eris proudly lifted her little head, but then she suddenly remembered that Radeus was younger than her yet already an Advanced Swordsman, and she felt a little defeated.

If Rudeus had still been awake, he would only have comforted Eris.

Don't compare yourself to a cheater. There's no point. Even his stats were filled in at random by a game designer using their feet.

If Paul had started out as a Sword Emperor or Sword God or something, Radeus probably would have become invincible long ago. What would being a Sword God at five even mean?

Even Uncle Dragon God would have to wonder whether Radeus was the Creator's own son.

"Then you must not know the Silent Blade yet, right?"

Radeus led Eris along step by step, solely to get her to ask Ghislaine to demonstrate the Sword of Light. That way, Radeus could learn the Sword of Light and claim his place as a Sword Saint!

What a schemer. He could have simply asked directly, but he just had to do it this way!

Eris shook her head, indicating that she didn't.

"Then why don't we have Ghislaine demonstrate it for us?"

Radeus smiled at Ghislaine beside them.

"All right. You and Eris need to watch carefully!"

Ghislaine didn't think anything of it and immediately demonstrated the Sound Sword for the two of them.

"The trick to the Sound Sword is swinging your sword fast. Once you reach the speed of sound, you've succeeded!"

As she spoke, Ghislaine swung her sword forward. Radeus hadn't even seen it clearly.

So this is a Sword King? Even her Sound Sword is several times faster than mine. Isn't this already in the realm of the Sword of Light?

"You're amazing, Ghislaine!"

Eris gazed at Ghislaine in admiration, her eyes sparkling.

"You'll be able to do this before long too, Eris."

Ghislaine affectionately stroked Eris's head, and Eris looked thoroughly content.

I never thought Eris had this side to her.

Looking at Eris, who was as docile as a kitten, Radeus couldn't help marveling.

"Ghislaine, I'd like to see the Sword of Light too. Could you go as slowly as possible this time?"

"Of course!"

Ghislaine remembered Paul saying that Radeus had learned the Sound Sword after seeing it just once. Now she wanted to see whether he could learn the Sword of Light at a glance too.

"Actually, the difference between the Sword of Light and the Sound Sword lies in speed and how you exert your strength. Once your body is up to it and your method is correct, you'll naturally be able to do it."

Ghislaine sheathed her sword and taught Radeus the techniques behind the Sword of Light bit by bit.

Radeus didn't dare let his guard down. He used the Six Eyes at full power, not even daring to blink for fear of missing the slightest detail.

Whoosh!

The sword has already swung, and only then does the sound arrive?

Watching that incomparably swift slash, Radeus closed his eyes and recalled Ghislaine's posture and the way she exerted her strength.

His hand involuntarily gripped his wooden sword, and he copied Ghislaine, gathering his strength little by little.

After a while, Radeus's eyes snapped open, and his wooden sword swung down with them. Once again, the sword outpaced the sound.

He had become a Sword Saint of the Sword God Style!

"Oh?!"

Ghislaine stared at Radeus in shock too. She hadn't expected him to actually learn it after seeing it once. She wondered whether it would be better to take him to the Sword Sanctum and have her master teach him.

This child's talent is no less than my master's!

"Ghislaine, does that mean Radeus succeeded?"

Eris looked at Ghislaine and asked.

"Yes, that was the Sword of Light. It was no different from mine!" Ghislaine nodded.

Radeus was excited too. He hadn't expected to succeed on his first try. It seemed this thing wasn't difficult. What was his father doing, failing to master it after all this time?

Paul: Was that a fucking human thing to say?

"But Radeus, your Sword of Light is exactly the same as mine. That will limit you!"

Ghislaine threw cold water on Radeus's excitement.

"Everyone swings their sword differently. You need to forge your own path and develop your own Sword of Light. Only then can you be considered a Sword Saint!"

"Is that how it works?"

"Understood! I'll keep studying it!"

Radeus thought for a moment, then assured Ghislaine.

"Then what are the standards for Sword Saint, Sword King, Sword Emperor, and Sword God? Does each rank have its own special sword technique?"

"Saints, Kings, Emperors, and Gods all essentially use the Sword of Light. The only difference is that a Sword King's Sword of Light is faster than a Sword Saint's, a Sword Emperor's is faster than a Sword King's, and the Sword God's is faster than everyone's. That's all!"

It's that simple and straightforward?

So, basically, it's all about raw stats?

The Sword God Style had landed squarely in Radeus's comfort zone this time. When it came to stats, no one could match him!

"I can't teach you how to improve your speed. You'll need to put it into practice yourself. All I can say is that the best method is actual combat, and life-or-death combat at that."

"Understood, Teacher Ghislaine!"

Radeus gave Ghislaine a military salute.

"Yes, very good!"

Ghislaine nodded in satisfaction. Teaching a genius really was different. All you had to do was swing your sword, and the genius would learn it on his own.

"Ghislaine, Ghislaine, I want to learn the Sword of Light too!"

Eris hugged Ghislaine's leg and wheedled.

"That might be a little difficult for you right now, Eris. Are you confident you can stick with it?"

Ghislaine rubbed Eris's head.

"Of course! I'm Eris Boreas Greyrat!"

Eris lifted her head to look at Ghislaine, her eyes filled with determination.

"Then let's begin your special training!"

"Yeah!!!"

While Eris and Ghislaine were doing their special training, Radeus went over to where Rudeus lay and gave him a few kicks in the kidney.

"Get up. I know you've been awake for ages!"

"Easy! What am I supposed to do if you damage my kidney?"

Rudeus reluctantly climbed to his feet. He hadn't expected Radeus to be so vicious as to want him to suffer kidney failure and die!

"It's fine. If it breaks, I'll take care of your wife for you. We're twins, after all!"

"You're fucking Cao Cao!"

P.S. He's about to awaken the Ten Shadows. While I'm at it, I'm collecting everyone's ridiculous quotes (lol).
