Chapter 70
——The impeachment ceremony. This is an alternative way to obtain the qualification of "Dao Ji" completely different from the traditional Sheath Lord's inheritance.
Most of the traditional sheath lords are inherited from the "Fengdao Family" that comes from the Wu family. In addition, there are a few excellent sheath lords who will choose the best people from their disciples to inherit their "sword".
There are also a few lords of the sheath travel around and select disciples who are most suitable for their own skills among young children. This is a bit similar to the style of the Sword Hero Ingenious in the Sword Hero novel that Zhikuang Dongye had read in his previous life. "The master always looks for disciples, but no disciples look for masters"...
According to the sacrificial priest of Horiizumi, the master of the sheath has been a member of the Warrior family in all generations. As early as the Tokugawa Shogunate period, the "Damyoshi" headed by the "Omefu" Yagyu Soju, who served as the third generation of generals Iemitsu, led the leader of the sheath in the country. In the later period, "Damyoshi" disintegrated and gradually divided into the "Five Courtyards and Five Sheaths".
Among them, the "Five Academy" refers to five special institutions headed by the Sangha Academy, which are specifically responsible for personnel dispatching and management, logistics support, reconnaissance, medical care and curse research on the ghosts of disaster; while the "Five Sheaths" are five five best swordsmanship known as the "Five Heaven Sheaths", and can be called the master of the sheath at the level of the swordsman.
Since ancient times, all the movements of the Sheath Lords have been led and dispatched by the "Five Heaven Sheath" - and the "Five Heaven Sheath" must also be the strongest swordsman, otherwise they will not be able to conquer everyone among the powerful Sheath Lords.
Moreover, since the Edo period, the Five Courts and Five Sheaths were secret institutions closely attached to the government forces, and their purpose was to eliminate the dangers brought by the disaster.
(The martial family, that is, the warrior class, seems to monopolize the power of "Sword Girl" and the Lord of the Sheath, but this is also natural. This is not a novel and comic. Heroes are always from grassroots. Assuming a world has supernatural powers, it is naturally owned by the top leaders of the country. Even if this power cannot be inherited and passed on to descendants for various reasons, it will be monopolized by the top leaders of the country for various reasons...)
After hearing the senior sister's explanation, some of Zhicang Dongye's doubts were gradually resolved.
"The impeachment ritual is essentially a trial. This trial does not value the qualifications of the participants themselves. Moreover, as a ghost-seeker, you will have some convenience in this trial. If you are willing to participate in this trial, you will have at least about 40% chance of success..."
"...Is it only 40%? This chance is really pitiful!"
There is a little less, but this so-called "impeachment ceremony" is also a path close to the qualification of "Sheath Lord". Zhicang Dongye will also seriously consider this matter.
"After all, I have limited understanding of the existence of the Lord of the Sheath and the Sword Girl so far. If I can understand this system through the 'impeachment ceremony', it will not be of benefit..."
He thought so from the bottom of his heart.
In addition, Horiizumi Kazuko also told him some other important information, for example, she had been secretive before and refused to reveal too much information about the "miracle ghost", and she finally revealed a lot.
"Sorry, junior. I used to be too self-righteous and thought that not saying this information would keep you from these dangers, but now I think about it and almost harm you."
The senior sister made her open and honest statement to him.
"The struggle between the misfortune ghost and the Sheath Lord has been hidden in the depths of history for a long time. There are several reasons in it, but one of them is that we, the sheath Lord, can do nothing, that is, our props to fight against the misfortune ghost, that is, the "Sword Girl", who themselves are the sources of the misfortune ghost..."
——At this moment, his DNA moved.
This is a big news, and when Zhicang Dongye heard this, he also felt a "sudden" sound in his heart.
...Here is here! Is this the legendary "Enemma and I have the same origin" setting?
"First of all, I want to tell you how the misfortune was born..."
Senior Horiizumi had a complicated look in her eyes, and her voice became stern and cold.
"The evil ghost is also called the evil spirit, and is a curse born in a certain way. After all the evil spirits are born, they will uncontrollably want to kill people, want to tear people's flesh and blood in a cruel way, and eat human souls. This is the curse called the evil spirit."
"And the source of this curse is actually thirteen demon swords called "Faojin Evil Sword". These thirteen demon swords are the so-called "ancestor" of the misfortune ghost. These demon swords are the products created by ancient sword craftsmen. The madmen who forged these demon swords and evil swords were not known for their consideration. The Fortune swords and evil swords forged by their hands all have a strong sense of self. This is a kind of almost instinctive consciousness. Without exception, the instinct of the Faojin sword exists for killing living people."
"For nearly a thousand years, thirteen demon swords have been parasitized on different people, polluting other people's minds with evil and filthy power, often creating unrest, igniting wars, slaughtering, creating mountains of corpses, blood, and building white bones. Later, knowledgeable people gathered together and launched a surprise attack with their superior forces, severely damaging the thirteen evil swords of the disaster, and successfully attacking five of them and destroying them, which prevented the demon sword from spreading over the world."
Through the gentle voice of the senior sister's silver bell, Chikura Dongye could feel that complicated history - it was a dark era where war was raging, evil swords trampled on human bones and gnawed on resentment. In contrast, loyal and righteous people among humans gathered together to discuss it in order to fight against the Huojin Sword, who killed innocent people and committed unscrupulous crimes.
"In the ancient controversy, only eight of the thirteen slaughter were left. From then on, the slaughtermen also consciously hid their traces. They no longer appeared in public, but were completely lurking under human society. In addition to using the power of curses to create slaughter ghosts, they no longer act on the surface on the stage..."
The evil sword of the disaster is the ancestor of the disaster ghosts. According to past records, those who are injured by the evil sword and suck blood will be transformed into a level A disaster ghost by the curse generated on the evil sword. Later, the level A disaster ghost can split its own curse core and produce a level B disaster ghost downwards. Just like the descendants of the vampire development in the story, the weakest level D can also produce inferior species.
"However, the inferior species are too weak and are unsuccessful. They are somewhat useful against humans. For any Sheath Lord, they can be killed with a wave of hand."
