Mushoku Tensei: Reincarnated as the weakest Sword God

Chapter 70: Sword God



After that confrontation with Eris and Nina, I returned home, now that I think about it I hadn't talked to dad, I guess he must be waiting for me at home...

Other than that I guess everything went well, Nina didn't seem really angry, Ghislaine doesn't care, but the problem is Eris...

I guess I'll have to reward her later, I'll look through the magic items I brought to see if she likes anything... or I can give her the short sword...

I returned home with all those thoughts in mind

"I'm back..." I muttered as I walked in.

My parents were at the kitchen table, dad looked at me and smiled while he was eating dinner.

"welcome back Gino" he said with a small smile.

"Yeah, I'm glad to be back," I said.

"Are you going to dinner, dear?" Mom asked and I nodded, sitting at the table.

"I honestly thought it would take longer, why did you come back so soon?" Dad asked while looking at me with a raised eyebrow.

"I did a lot of things in a short time and made a lot of money, but that doesn't compare to being at home, and I missed everyone," I said.

Mom seemed touched by these words and my dad nodded with a proud smile.

"Very well, then I suppose that tomorrow you will resume your training, right? You may already be a Sword Emperor, but if you relax you will lose condition" Dad said seriously.

"Of course, consider that everything is back to normal" I said.

With all this said we had dinner as normal, I won't deny that I missed this, after all this is my home.

It also turned out that mom got pregnant because she felt lonely... I guess dad kept her company at night, huh?

But a brother...the original Gino was always an only child if I remember correctly, I guess I'll have to ask Orsted about the case.

After dinner I showed my parents my magic skills, now with the excuse that I learned it on my travels.

I took a hot shower and fell into my bed.

I don't know why, but my bed had never felt as comfortable as it did now, and I also noticed that my room was empty.I only had my bed, and a wardrobe with less than ten changes of clothes, although my lifestyle does not demand more and in fact I will soon live in another house so there is no problem.

...

I had a restful sleep and woke up before dawn.

I took a shower and went out for a jog, the cold air of the place filled my lungs and gave me energy to keep running, I felt like I could run faster and I wouldn't get tired but it was just a normal jog.

After that I went back home and practiced my swings with dad.

My technique was now perfect and totally refined, I was even able to point out some tiny errors in Dad's posture.

Although he simply responded by looking at me angrily, so I didn't talk about it anymore.

When mom finished, she made breakfast and then I took a second bath and went out to the dojo.

I carried my two swords in case Eris was still angry with me...

Plus some magical items like rings or jewelry if Nina or Ghislaine wanted to, but I don't think they're the type of women who are interested in that, but it was still worth a try.

When I arrived outside the dojo I found that Isolte, Nina and Eris were training outside.

I honestly forgot Isolte was here, my mistake.

"Oh? But it's you Gino! I haven't seen you for a long time! Where have you been!?" Isolte asked with a smile while looking at me.

"I simply went to explore the world out of curiosity, now that that curiosity has been satisfied I'm back to stay" he replied.

"Hah! I see, a very noble motive!" she replied.

I turned to look at Eris and Nina with a smile.

Nina kissed me good morning and Eris just waved at me but looked upset.

"Eris?..." I muttered.

"Hmmmp!" She grumbled, crossing her arms and pouting.

I smiled at this.

"I brought you a gift Eris" I said taking out the small sword.

She looked at me out of the corner of her eye but with curiosity but she reminded herself not to look at me.

He took the sword out of its sheath and showed it to her.

"This sword is a magical object, if you try to cut something soft it won't work, but it can cut the hardest metal!!" I said as I put the sword at the level of the veins on my arm and tried to cut.

Eris was alarmed at this as the sword was genuinely sharp, but obviously nothing happened.

"Do you want it Eris?" I said with a mocking smile

She kept her arms crossed but looked at the sword anxiously.

"Hehe, I just need one kiss and she'll be yours" I said.

Eris looked at me and then at the sword, she quickly snatched it from me and gave me a quick kiss on the lips.

"hmmp!" She continued to grumble as she looked at the sword.

"Thank you..." She murmured at the end.

"It's nothing" I replied.

I looked at Nina and she seemed jealous, so I pulled out a pair of gold rings which she surprisingly accepted.

I also gave one to Isolte as a token of friendship and since she was basically my teacher in the Water God style.

And so after this quick persuasion I entered the dojo where Gull Farion was.

The guy looked totally bored as he massaged his temples.

"Gino..." An indifferent voice came out of his mouth.

"What's wrong?" I replied.

"Have a fight with me" he said standing up and unsheathing his sword.

I nodded and unsheathed Dragon Phoenix in the same way.

Besides that I noticed something in Gull's gaze...

He looked unsure...

Plus he usually makes the first move, but now it was different, the guy was staring at me while still not moving even a little.

This made me nervous...

Bah...what does it matter?...

I crouched slightly as I stood up straight.

In a split second I lunged at Gull and our swords clashed.

Due to the force of my attack, Gull was pushed back significantly, and put on a face of uncertainty.

This puzzled me just the same, why did he act like that?

Gull crouched down and tried to attack my rib but I stopped his attack quickly.

In that position his back was exposed, I fired on myself and aimed at his neck.

My sword moved at the speed of light and was about to land on his neck, but was stopped by Gull's sword.

But it was an unstable block, his sword hit his own neck trying to stop mine, he was only holding on with one hand while with the other he kept himself from falling to the ground.

He was in a disadvantageous position, so I jumped back slightly to give him time to recover his stance.

"Don't hesitate!!!" He screamed as he lunged at me and threw a long sword of light at me.

Our swords clashed again but I stood firm in my place, doubt invaded Gull's face, I could see it clearly

I gave a small jump back and lunged at him again, he tried to go for my legs but I jumped into the air hitting him right on his wrist, and consequently causing him to lose his grip on his sword.

But his reflexes were something else, the guy grabbed his sword in the air, repositioned himself and lunged at me again.

But his jump was too high, I just had to duck low enough to dodge it, the blow was probably going to my neck.

With a smooth movement, I moved my sword from the ground until it hit Gull in an arcing motion.

I hit his ribs with all my strength, the force of the impact caused him to lose his momentum and he was sent flying towards the sword saints?!!!...

I was in shock at the scene, I couldn't process it well.

"..." Gull lay on the ground right where the sword saints were training.

Everyone looked at me with expressions of total shock and fear.

"Oh shit..." I muttered to myself as I sheathed my sword.

At this point, because of the noise, Nina, Eris and Isolte came in to see what was happening.

It only took one look for them to decipher what happened, Nina had a shocked expression on her face, Eris had a proud face and Isolte just looked at me with admiration.

But I was still in shock and Gull didn't get up.

"Gull? Are you okay?" I murmured as I approached him.

The guy was panting on the floor while holding the area where I hit him, I instinctively applied healing magic while he stared at me.

I couldn't read his expression, I'd never seen Gull make a face like that, he looked scared, confused, angry and resigned...all of that in one expression...

Finally he stood up with some difficulty, looked at me for a few seconds...and then bowed and left the dojo...

Oh no...

Suddenly all the sword saints bowed before me with their heads bowed.

"We welcome the Sword God Gino Britzs!!!" one of the older sword saints shouted and the other saints raised their swords towards me.

My gaze turned to Nina who was looking out towards where Gull had gone.

...

I immediately left the dojo to look for Gull, I ran quickly and was able to catch up with him almost at the exit of the sacred land of the sword.

"Gull?!!, where the hell are you going?" I yelled at him.

The guy stopped and looked at me for a few moments and then walked on without saying anything.

I could see from his expression that the guy wouldn't listen to me, he wouldn't hear what I had to say, he wouldn't accept it, he's that stubborn.

With a defeated expression I returned to the dojo where the other sword saints were waiting for me.

"Welcome back Lord God of the Sword what can we do for you?" The same Saint old man asked

"...keep training, nothing happened here" I muttered as I looked at the seat where Gull was less than an hour ago.

I left the dojo towards Gull's house and there I found Nina talking to her mother.

"Nina! Please wait! This is a misunderstanding! It was never my intention..."

"I know, my father already sensed that you would defeat him soon" Nina said interrupting me.

I looked at my mother, who had a sad expression but nodded.

"Since before you left for the outside world, Gull had strange dreams where you would defeat him, he knew that day was coming...it just came too soon" my aunt murmured.

"..." I just stayed silent at all this.

"And now what? What should I do?" I asked.

"That is not something we can answer you Gino, now you are the Sword God, the central dojo is at your disposal" Nina said with a smile.

"But what will happen to Gull? He left and left them behind" I said.

"Dear... normally in the transitions between sword gods, the predecessor never comes out alive... that's how it was for Gull, he killed his master and became the Sword God" My aunt said.

"but I didn't kill Gull..." I Reply.

"No, you didn't, but if pride was trampled, he now exiles himself from here..."He will never come back" my aunt said as tears pooled on her face.

"aunt I..."

"No problem, I knew this day would come and I thank you for not killing him, now my priority is to see that you two get married and give me lots of grandchildren" my aunt said wiping away her tears.

"That will be soon right?..." Nina asked with a smile as she looked at me

"...yes, soon" I answered and that's how I said goodbye to them.

I felt terribly confused, so I went to where Roxy was staying.

She was staying in a room next to Ghislaine and Eris so it was easy to find her.

I knocked on the door a couple of times until she opened the door, she was wearing pajamas and her hair was messy.

It's true...it's still morning...

"Gino? What's wrong?..." She murmured when she saw my expression.

I didn't answer him and gave him a long kiss on the lips closing the door behind me.

I need some relief...
