SSS Evolution: Upgrading My Trash Grade Skeleton to Godhood
Chapter 143: Bad
Lukas heard her words and a strange feeling took root in his heart. He felt like a illiterate hobo, however no could belittle him. It had been only about a year since he came to the Star Dimension, while the White Knight Guild Master had been at the top of the hierarchy for a very long time.
So it is a strong technique, but would it really work right now...?
His thoughts surged, but he could not understand. He had just defeated the sword knight, and now the sword had appeared. Could it be that the next battle had something to do with the technique?
He was still thinking when a possibility flashed through his mind.....
Could it be that next time, the knight can only be defeated using this skill?
As soon as this possibility appeared in his head, he had a feeling it was most likely true. It was too important to simply ignore.
While he was thinking, the White Knight Guild Master went through the contents of the text. Although she was not a sword master, she could feel just how grand and highly advanced this technique was. Moreover, for some reason, Lukas’s words overlapped with the knight’s and flashed through her head.
Sword God inheritance... could it be a technique created by the Sword God?
She did not know for sure whether gods existed in this world, but the technique before her was real. Maybe if she managed to learn this technique, there would be hope for her reaching the next realm. Then she would be able to end the crisis plaguing her White Knight Settlement for good.
Thinking up to this point, the White Knight Guild Master’s heart accelerated beating like a war drum.
As someone who had managed to reach the Bloodline Awakening Stage, she also knew her own weakness and strength.
Her talent in the field of the sword was limited. She could only go so far with swordsmanship on her own. If she had a teacher, it would be different, but where was she supposed to find a teacher in this mysterious space?
Just as this thought appeared in her head, she saw Lukas standing in the distance, a knowing smile on his face as if he had guessed what she was thinking.
For some reason, the White Knight Guild Master felt a chill run down her spine.
The smile on Lukas’s face widened even further as he looked at her.
"If you are interested, we can make a deal. And yes, don’t be in a rush to say no."
Who knows how the situation would change going forward.
"I have a feeling the next wave of challenges will be worse. If we want to defeat the Sword knight, we will have to use the sword technique on the sword pillar, or else it will be over for us."
"Such a thing is not possible."
At first, the White Knight Guild Master wanted to deny Lukas’s words. How could such a selective thing happen? But then she remembered how she had been unable to even scratch the knight. Only then did she realize his words might actually make some sense.
With this, she became more willing to talk.
Lukas saw the look on her face and knew agreement would not be an issue.
After that, they came to an agreement: a simple arrangement in which Lukas would teach and defend the White Knight Guild Master, and in return, she would fulfill three of his wishes and compensate him for all the losses he had suffered.
Although they did not put it into writing, Lukas had a feeling she would not go back on her word this easily. Even if she did, it would not be that big of a loss for him.
Moreover, some might ask how he could be sure she would teach him the correct technique. The reason was simple: after all, her life was now in his hands.
Lukas sat cross-legged, with the sword in his hand, while she recited the words for him. He engraved them onto the ground with the help of the sword.
A sane decision, after all. If he forgot, he could have offended her again and again. Not only would that be troublesome, but it would also make the relationship between them even more tense.
After a complete reading of the text, Lukas’s eyebrows scrunched together.
Hmmm, so this is not the complete text, but only the first part... Hmm.
Engraved on the pillar was not the complete technique, but only the first part of the technique: One sword to rule the first world, one strength to rule any man.
A single yet domineering name. Once fully mastered, the technique would allow its user to rival any warrior on earth.
So amazing...!
Lukas could not help but sigh inwardly. His words were filled with admiration. He had never seen such an overbearing technique. Of course, he did not doubt the Sword God’s claims. He had already seen what the Death God’s inheritance was capable of, and since the two were friends, this one should not be any different.
Time continued to pass. Although the interior space seemed cut off from the outside world, he still sat there, slowly meditating, enveloping the entire area in complete darkness.
As Lukas never felt tired, he did not need to rest. He could stay up all night and study the technique.
He stood tall, holding the sword lightly in his hand, trying to feel the so-called will of the sword contained in the technique. But even with his advanced understanding of the sword, he did not seem to be making any progress.
To a certain extent, learning a technique from a sword was not easy. If anyone could learn the technique in one night, the Sword God would need to set the heavens on fire.
The White Knight Guild Master sat farther away from him, watching him practice with clear and calm focus.
After taking another look, her head started to hurt. With no choice left, she had to turn her head away.
While Lukas was struggling to learn the technique, her situation was even worse. She could not even make head or tail of it and had no idea where to begin. Truly frustrating.
Just then, the White Knight Guild Master’s expression changed. Her stomach tightened, and a sudden feeling spread through the surrounding air.
She was hungry.
Since bloodline awakeners had terrifying vitality, even if they went without eating for months, they would not feel a thing. But the problem was that the White Knight Guild Master had done exactly that. She had not eaten for months.
It was not that she had nothing to eat. She was simply a very selective eater. Only if something truly suited her mood would she eat it.
A very picky eater, she could go hungry for months, sometimes even years.
This was a well-known fact among the members of the White Knight Guild. As such, many members would go around collecting rare delicacies and bringing them to the guild master as a side job.
If something matched her taste, she would reward that person handsomely.
At this time, Lukas was too busy comprehending the technique to care about the hungry beauty beside him.
Time continued to pass, and soon it was morning.
Lukas was deep in a meditative state when he felt the space tremble like a paper curtain.
Then, the space fractured from the portal, and a knight walked out. Compared to the previous knight, this one was taller, stronger, and more brutal. It radiated a terrifying aura that seemed to want to destroy everything in its path.
Such Tyrannical aura... Lukas thought surged, it appeared this knight mastery of the first part of sword technique was significant, even Lukas himself felt his tremble in fright. Goosebumps rose all over, he had faced multiple insanely strong opponents, even the legendary star mother, but during those time had Tommy helping him, and wide array of talents, but now when he could use any of his abilities, his fighting ability was nothing, after he was just at the peak of Body refining realm.
Step by step the knight moved closed to Lukas, the sword in his hand raised high in the air, without any fanfare or words the sword descend, cutting through the air.
So fast.. Lukas stared at the descending sword with wide open eyes, he could barely blink when the sword was right in front of him, its sharp edge reflecting perfectly in his pupils.
He had completely failed to react in time.
"Damm fucking it..."
As the last ditch attempt to save his neck, Lukas brought the sword in front of himself to act like shield.
Bang! The sword clashed against the sword and sparks flew everywhere. Lukas hand holding the sword shook, he felt as if had been hit by a battering ram. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂
White knight Guild master watching from the sidelines frowned, she could tell Lukas was at clear disadvantage.
This is bad!
