10 Quest completion and reward
He felt a bit strange about his parents departure and couldn't help but get worried about them.
So after his parents left he totally immersed in practice. He needed something to distract himself from these thoughts and he chose training. He rarely conversed with his aunt, that too only at the time of lunch or dinner. And due to this his efficiency in training increased.
Due to his daily meditation, his focus increased and he could see flaws in his stances in sword arts and thus improved proficiency in the sword art. And this in turn helped him speed up the rate of improvement in his attributes.
So after almost 1 year after his parents' departure during which he trained like there was no tomorrow and finally he heard system's message for which he was waiting a long time:
" Quest completed: Reach the requirement to practice haki "
He asked system to show his stats:
"Name: Fernando D Alden
Strength: 175
Agility: 188
Intelligence: 169
Spirit: 247
Skills: (1) HAKI foundation method: Peak accomplishment
(2) Basic Sword Art : minor accomplishment
(3) Muscle break technique: Novice
Sword Mastery: Beginner
Haki: Observation: beginner
Zanpakuto: seal status: 3.71% unsealed"
Few days ago he broke through it novice level in muscle break technique but as he was very near to his quest completion, he didn't start training soru and kept doing the same routine as it was still effective.
And due to learning observation haki, his sword arts also improved and reached minor accomplishment. He also finally reached Peak level in Haki foundation technique.
After reading his status, he asked system for long awaiting rewards.
"Rewards for completing quest: Sword of Kusanagi"
There was only single reward for this very long quest which took him five years. But when he looked at it his mouth was wide open with surprise and it was a pleasant surprise.
When he asked system to give him his reward, a sword with a black scabbard and matching hilt. He remembered that this sword was which Sasuke Uchiha used in Naruto. When he took it out of the black scabbard, it was shining brightly and it felt as if the sword was calling something from inside him. The sword felt attraction towards him or whatever is inside him. He could feel the emotion of happiness in sword as if a son in meeting his mother after a long time.
Alden was dazed for some time and after few moments he came to his senses and saw that sword had calmed down. He looked at the sword's blade. It looked so sharp that can cut through almost anything. He used slash using it on the big stone in the backyard and the sword cut through it like a knife in butter.
He felt something different while using it for sword arts. Like it was more efficient. So he felt that something changed and checked his status again:
"Name: Fernando D Alden
Strength: 175
Agility: 188
Intelligence: 169
Spirit: 275
Skills: (1) HAKI foundation method: Peak accomplishment
(2) Basic Sword Art : minor accomplishment
(3) Muscle break technique: Novice
Sword Mastery: Novice
Haki: Observation: beginner
Zanpakuto: seal status: 25% unsealed"
First he checked Sword art technique, but it wasn't upgraded. So he then checked Sword mastery and he found that he broke through to Novice stage and his zanpakuto also unsealed 25%.
He asked system the reason for it although he knew it was something regarding sword of Kusanagi.
" Sword of Kusanagi had a resonance with host's zanpakuto and due to attraction between to seal between two is loosen. And while it was happening the zanpakuto helped your sword mastery to reach Novice level."
He was happy to find that his gain was more than a good sword as a quest reward. Then suddenly he saw that his spirit attribute also increase by almost 30. He thought it was also due to his zanpakuto. But system said : " Sword of kusanagi while unsealing Host's zanpakuto with its soul energy strengthened host's soul too".
So he saw Sword of kusanagi and thanked it. And it responsed with a small bright flash as an acknowledgement.
