Izumo is an autonomous territory with extraterritorial jurisdiction, and every checkpoint for entering and exiting Izumo is terrifyingly strict.
For Izumo, ronin is very rare.
It is almost impossible to enter Izumo without leaving fingerprints and strict inspections.
Of course, this is only for ordinary people, and Heather is not within the scope of restrictions. As long as he wants, he can cross the sea and reach the Celestial Empire on the other side of the sea with his flying ability.
In other words, Heather is not limited or bound by the will of the world.
The fact that he is wandering around the world so freely now is entirely out of his own interest.
The fierce battles in the Holy Grail War made him feel exhausted, especially the tragic life-and-death fight with the little prince Hugo who was also a 'foreigner' at the end.
This true [foreign war] also made Heather understand how cruel the fighting between foreigners can be.
Not to mention the dead little prince Hugo, even Heather, as the winner, paid a heavy price.
[Knights of the Round Table] has been sealed, and Heather can't find a way to unblock it. In the "Catalogue of Mythical Weapons", King Arthur and the twelve Knights of the Round Table seem to be sleeping and cannot be awakened at all.
That was the causal damage caused by the 'Magic Spindle' summoned by the little prince at the expense of his own 'left eye'.
At the same time, the light egg was also seriously contaminated and was in an unusable state.
When the world is supplemented by myths and legends, the light eggs are among the top three powerful existences among the mythical weapons owned by Heather. In the last battle of the Holy Grail War, in order to give Heather a chance, the light eggs fought tooth and nail.
He used his full force of 'forced degradation' to destroy Aladdin's magic lamp. At the same time, it was contaminated by the powerful flesh and blood curse that the opponent counterattacked before death, and was almost completely destroyed.
Even though Heather is using his own concepts to warm up these four stone balls cursed by flesh and blood, trying to help them expel this difficult curse, but he knows very well that unless he also finds a life tool to restrain it, the light eggs will be destroyed.
The restoration project will be very slow.
Tsk... [Life Tool] Ah, where should I go to find a life tool that perfectly fits my weapon concept?
Without the recovery ability of the light egg, Heather's right arm, which was torn off by the little prince in his Big Bad Wolf state, would naturally not be able to regenerate.
Of course, even if Heather is not in good condition at this time, she can still run rampant in this world, because the power level of this world is indeed much worse than that of Heather who has awakened the concept.
And because of the [Distant Star's Favor], Heather will not be oppressed or assimilated by the will of the world, which means that the most troublesome external influences are eliminated.
Three years after coming to this world, Heather has become a famous knight.
Perhaps other outsiders would find it difficult to understand Heather's behavior. Instead of enjoying the pleasure brought by the opposite sex, food, power, and bullying, he instead wanders around the world in mediocrity. Isn't this a waste of his own talents and concepts?
Can he be considered a foreigner?
But Heather was happy with it.
He likes to travel. Without the assimilation of the world's will, he can finally return to his true nature and enjoy the journey. Anyway, outsiders are independent of the sea of time and space. No matter how much time he spends in a single world, it will not affect himself and other outsiders.
The competition between them, haven’t you seen that the little prince has been in the Holy Grail world for sixty years?
Although she didn't know what kind of world she had entered, it only took Heather a short time to determine that there were no threats beyond her own power. To put it bluntly, it was a world of low force and low magic.
Everything is similar to the normal Edo period in Japan, although the current ruling class is a guy I have never heard of. It is easy to understand and it is an imaginary world.
Until two months ago, Heather, who was traveling in Mutsu, was approached by a white-haired woman, who claimed to be the strategist of the shogunate, and her name was Jiuer.
At that time, Heather happened to encounter a group of bandits who planned to rob the village where he was staying. Heather, who did not intend to show his true strength, hit it off with Jiuer. The latter provided excellent strategies, coupled with Heather's self-repression to the current world.
The level of powerful force is still unparalleled in the world, and the bandit group of 60 people was wiped out by Heather single-handedly.
After this battle, the relationship between the two became much more harmonious, and they could be said to have a pleasant conversation. When Jiu'er invited Heather to travel with him, Heather really considered whether to take her along. But what Jiu'er mentioned next
The [Shikisaki Kiki no Knife] made Heather suddenly wake up——
I think I’ve seen this one? It’s called... "The Whisper of the Sword"?
Because Heather was busy finishing the Icecrown Throne raid copy of World of Warcraft at the time, so she just pulled up the progress bar and took a quick look at it, so she can’t say that she understood all the details.
But there were twelve so-called "completed" variant knives among them, and Heather was still impressed by them.
So, this woman seems to be the heroine of the plot? Compared with the "simple drawing" style in the animation, the real person is obviously much more beautiful, and her long white hair is also very conspicuous.
Generally speaking, Heather doesn't like to break up the original male and female protagonists. Therefore, he drove Jiuer away with the lame excuse of "you are not my type" in an attempt to get the plot back on track.
What? If you don’t like to break up the CP, what’s going on with Tifa and Aerith?... You’re the only one who talks a lot, right?
In short, after sending Jiu'er away, Heather thought about it for a long time and finally made a decision - to embark on a sword-hunting journey alone.
The twelve completed variant knives of Shikizaki Kiki still have a certain appeal for a weapons collector like me. Although the power may not be as outrageous as other mythical weapons, but at least bring some souvenirs, right?
So, Heather followed the little information in her memory about the Shikisaki Kiki Sword and started heading towards Izumo.
After all, what impressed him most in the original work was the Santu Shrine with its black miko.
Standing at the foot of Izumo Mountain, the surroundings were still surrounded by mist. The village man responsible for leading the way was trembling with fear, fearing that the strange-looking giant wanderer would cut him with a sword if he was dissatisfied.
Heather put one hand on her waist and looked up at the stone steps extending infinitely into the depths of the mist. Every few hundred steps there was a torii gate painted in vermilion. But after the second torii gate, there was no more.
The other torii gates and stairs cannot be seen because they are all obscured by the mist.
"Sir, give up. Santu Shrine does not welcome outsiders, especially men!" The village man was still trying to persuade him, for fear that Heather would die.
If this giant man has other companions or relatives who know that he is leading the way but do not dissuade them, they will most likely be angry with him because this giant man was killed by Santu Shrine.
In fact, the villagers did not think that Heather could successfully climb to Santu Shrine.
Because this is a real armed shrine, independent of the control of the shogunate, and has extraterritorial jurisdiction.
Heather waved her hand impatiently: "Okay, okay, you can go back, thank you for leading the way...here."
With a flick of his thumb, with a crisp sound, ten copper plates flew in the air and finally fell lightly into the hands of the village man, folded steadily into a pile and stood in the center of the open palm.
"Master... this, this, this, you..." The village man was frightened. He didn't expect that instead of being scolded or beaten, he would be rewarded. The first thing that filled his heart was not gratitude, but fear and confusion.
Seeing that Heather just looked at the stairs and ignored him, the village man could only bow gratefully and move back until he was more than ten meters away. Then he turned around, hunched over and hid the hand holding the copper coin in his chest.
, trotted towards the fields.
Heather looked around, put her fingers on the front of the hat and pressed it slightly: "Nice to meet you, black witches."
At some point, women in twos and threes wearing uniform black witch costumes vaguely appeared in the forest. They all had the same shoulder-length black short hair. Although their heights were slightly different, their temperaments were exactly the same. Their faces were plastered like those in Lin Zhengying's zombie movies.
The big charm covers the whole face.
What is worth noting is that they all wear identical knives at their waists.
Facing Heather's greetings, they did not react at all. They stood quietly in the forest mist like dolls, and then gradually disappeared.
Black witches? Forget it, they are not what I am looking for, or in other words, the real owner is not them.
Heather smiled, stepped onto the stone steps, and walked step by step into the mist-shrouded Izumo Mountains.
【Thousand Swords·铩】, it is said that if you want to seize this sword, you have to face a thousand sword holders. It is a complete variant sword with the characteristics of "overwhelming numbers".
