I Became the Fiancé of a Crazy Heroine - Chapter 13-1
“Magic Sword”
It’s a weapon that only the chosen one could use, and it was a powerful weapon with inherent strength.
According to the setting, there were seven “Magic Sword” in total, each of which could implement specific attributes.
Five of them were expected to appear during the progress of the story, either by their owner’s appearance or by meeting someone who could prove their eligibility.
The protagonist acquires one of the “Magic Sword” before meeting Hanette, and two more after that.
‘I can’t use any other “Magic Sword.’
Sion experienced the flow of this world indirectly through novels.
No one could touch any “Magic Sword” unless they had the qualifications or were the rightful owner.
However, one of the “Magic Sword” was not designated to have an owner and theoretically could be used by anyone.
‘The “Exceed Rain,” the weapon of darkness, knows no bounds.’
“Exceed Rain” was one of the seven “Magic Sword,” a weapon of darkness.
It was the last “Magic Sword” to appear in the content and the protagonist encounters this ‘Demonic Sword’ while in the hands of a monster.
The protagonist cut off the monster’s hand and defeated it, but “Exceed Rain” did not succumb and quickly retreated.
After that, it caused accidents by going back and forth between humans and monsters. And eventually, it was subdued by the protagonist, and used occasionally in battles.
‘It’s a dangerous weapon. You could lose your life if you use it wrong.’
“Exceed Rain” did not discriminate against users like other “Magic Sword,” but the price was treacherous and cruel.
In addition to taking away the user’s magical power, it required the consumption of ‘Life force’ to bring out its full power.
Therefore, if “Exceed Rain” was used, the user’s ‘Life force’ and ‘Magic power’ would eventually run out, and their body would disappear completely.
‘Of course… there is a way to use it.’
To permanently use the Exceed Rain, specific conditions had to be met.
One condition was to consume the Crimson Limpia Macina with a certain drug, and the other was to drink the holy water made by the White attribute Apostle.
The former provided immunity to mental domination, while the latter provided immunity to mana depletion.
With both immunities present in the body, the harmful effects of Exceed Rain could be completely blocked for the user.
‘I don’t have any special talent, so I have no choice but to use Exceed Rain to become stronger.’
Sion had already come to this conclusion after testing his own abilities long ago.
Sion Laird didn’t have any talent for martial arts or magic.
Even if he worked hard in this state, he couldn’t become stronger quickly, and there would be a delay in establishing an independent foundation and area.
That’s why using Exceed Rain was an extreme but certain way to become stronger.
‘Among the Cursed Demonic Swords, it’s the strongest… I can probably reach an intermediate level.’
Despite the significant danger, the power of Exceed Rain was unparalleled.
Specifically, the inherent abilities were exceptional, to the point where even the protagonist would only suffer one-sidedly.
If the protagonist hadn’t used the Light Magic Sword, he wouldn’t have been able to defeat Exceed Rain.
“El Tesoikve, the Light Magic Sword…”
El Tesoikve was one of the Seven Magic Swords, a weapon that embodied the light attribute.
It was the opposite of Exceed Rain and had the lowest combat ability among the Magic Swords.
However, it possesses a sacred power that allowed it to effectively counteract demons and Exceed Rain.
‘It’s in the capital of the Alain Kingdom…’
El Tesoikve was not hidden, but it was not something the protagonist could possess right away.
No one had discovered its true identity yet.
At this point, perhaps only Sion could recognize El Tesoikve.
‘After obtaining Exceed Rain, I may be treated as an enemy.’
In reality, Exceed Rain was a cursed weapon, a demon sword infused with hatred and despair. That’s why those who used ‘Exceed Rain’ in the original story, except for the protagonist, all died painfully.
Of course, if you use Exceed Rain without any problems, you might be able to form an alliance with El Tesoikve.
‘To explain how to do it…’
El Tesoikve fundamentally opposes Exceed Rain, with its top priority being to destroy it. However, over the years, it was unable to inflict fatal damage, and Exceed Rain also tried to constrain and destroy El Tesoikve.
Because their natures were incompatible, they instinctively rejected each other, but in reality, when the two swords were used together, they could unleash ultimate power.
‘It would be good to use both, but it’s impossible right now.’
This content was recorded as part of the novel’s setting and history.
A long time ago, there was a human who was the first and last to handle El Tesoikve and Exceed Rain at the same time. That human used the two magic swords to kill demons and dragons, creating what seemed like eternal peace.
However, the traces left by the demons became the 3rd Generation Great Demon King, and the corpses of the dragons were reborn as the four great disasters.
‘The protagonist couldn’t use both magic swords together either. So, it doesn’t matter if I take it for myself.’
Sion planned to take Exceed Rain before the protagonist did. The protagonist didn’t use Exceed Rain very well, and only carried it around to prevent it from falling into the wrong hands. Moreover, wasting time trying to hold on to Exceed Rain was not a good option.
In other words, if Sion could secretly take Exceed Rain, the protagonist would also benefit.
