Re: In My Bloody Hit Novel

It was time for class.

Today was going to be different from other days. It was the day the students came along with their weapons. As cultivators of a clan that merged spirit energy with the way of the sword, having weapons that could draw out their full potential was necessary.

The class was outdoors on a large open field. Many of the students arrived with swagger in their steps, holding proudly their swords in hand.

Many of the students displayed their new swords to their pairs. Going as far as to even show off the strength of their swords and the precious stones attached to them.

"Can't you see, this my sword was made by Master Gungu. He is the third-best Blacksmith in the entire clan. He made my sword with three hundred Yellow beast cores and twenty green beast cores." One kid boasted to another.

"Wow! that's incredible. That means your sword must have been very expensive."

"Yes! it is. After all, my father still had to pay another five hundred yellow beast cores and eighty green beast cores."

"Huh!!!" The other students gasped at his words.

As they looked at his sword in envy, it made him feel good and he waved it around displaying his stance and slashes to impress them. It was common knowledge that expense was a determining factor for quality.

Many such scenes were happening all around them. The students showcased the beauty and splendor of their weapons as if it was the determining factor in a fight for death and life.

Suddenly, Cablen arrived. His sword was sheathed properly in a scabbard.

Naturally, he made his entrance with his goons. A number of which had increased since the start of school.

Only the scabbard alone attracted the attention of everyone. The scabbard was decorated with yellow beast core stones and green beast core stones. Its rim was made of silver and gold lining and the scabbard itself was made entirely of bronze. f𝗿𝗲e𝒘e𝚋ｎ૦𝘃𝙚𝑙.com

This was an astonishing display of wealth.

And then, there was the Handle of the sword. It was gold and its center had a blue beast core in the center.

Cablen noticed all eyes on him and it made him raise his shoulders and pump out his chest in pride. When he was sure he had fully gotten the attention of everybody in the class, he decided it was time and he pulled out his sword from the scabbard.

"Huh!!!"

Cablen heard the slight gasp behind him, and it made him proud. Without anybody asking him, he blurted out the make of his sword.

If Chiron was here, he would have recognized this sword at first sight. That was because this sword was the same one the salesboy had tried to sell him back then.

It was broad and very eye catchy.

"This sword was made by the legendary Blacksmith Leongu."

"Wow!!!" many whispered. "Is he not the greatest Blacksmith of all time?"

Hearing the whispers, Cablen chuckled as he continued, "That's right, it was made by Leongu, but that's not all. Because Leongu is a very good friend of my father, he made a few adjustments to the sword. This sword is made with three..." he paused and used a corner of his eyes to check on the people listening.

"This sword is made with three blue beast cores. One on its handle center, one under its handle, and the last one was used during the finishing bathing of the sword."

Once again, there was another gasp.

Indeed, this was a terrible show of wealth. Three Blue beast cores was money many families would never see in their entire lives. It was an outrageous display of finances and status.

Naturally, many people approached to check out the sword.

"Wow! A sword from Leongu. That's incredible."

Meanwhile, the Kid that was boasting earlier about his sword quietly hid it behind him. There was no way he was going to display his sword now. In front of such a perfect piece of art.

While everyone gathered around him like the planets around the sun, a small lady walked in. Although she was small in stature and the youngest in the class, her entrance carried a lot of attention.

That was because she was the current star of this generation of cultivators and also the pride of the clan.

It was Nora.

She was already well approaching seven years now, but she was always the talk of any conversation.

The youngest cultivator in the history of the clan. Truly, the future ahead of her was bright and limitless. Some already speculated that she was going to become chief of the clan one day. As it stood, she had only recently entered the Middle stage of the Wood rank.

This was far ahead of her classmates.

Those that had C-grade Dantain had not even finished stabilizing their Dantains and here she was, standing as the only person in her class that had reached the middle stage. Her growth was fast and truly incredible.

She had a sword by the side of her waist. It looked small, long, and thin. But it was still there.

It was wrapped properly in a white cloth.

On seeing her, many of her pairs ran to her, "Nora! Nora!! let's see your sword! Let's see your sword."

Cablen saw this, but did not mind and looked away. In his own opinion, Nora's sword was terrible and that was why it was wrapped like that. On top of that, it was slender. There was no way her sword was going to be better than his.

One of the students succeeded in convincing her and the sword was unsheathed.

Unlike the students expected, the Scabbard was quite ordinary, but one of them noticed something. It seemed like the scabbard was also wrapped.

yes! it was!

They removed the wrapping of the scabbard and the beauty of the sword was left for all to adore.

The first thing they noticed was that the scabbard was inlaid with four blue beast cores. This introduction of the sword alone, made them gasp in synchrony...
