Smith and Wesen: A Modern Blacksmith's Magical Reincarnation

"You're just a Nenner! A glorified blacksmith! You can't possibly stand up against a Zahler's elemental power!" "As if that'll stop me! A Zahler might have the elements under their control, but that won't matter if I have a Seigel-riddled weapon for every occasion!" ⬛⬛⬛ Wesen... the innate power within that allows a person to manipulate the world around them. While it sounded straightforward enough, Rouge still has a lot to learn if he wanted to harness it for his own benefit. Thankfully, being a standard guy with blacksmithing as a hobby had given him a headstart in the new pseudo-medieval world that he now found himself in. In fact, blacksmithing in general is an integral part of his new life and the Wesen-filled wonders that entailed it. It was a good thing too, especially since it would be the one ticket he had to get out of the servitude of the Empire that insisted on grinding him under its heel. With his newfound power of rune-like Seigels at his disposal, Rouge will take the Matheman Empire by storm as he builds his rebellion into a force to be reckoned with. He will ensure that his fellow Nenners will be free from the Empire's oppressive practises, and he sure as hell will do it if it was the last thing he did. Well, that, and he refused to live in a backwater medieval world for longer than he could manage it. His modern sensibilities demanded proper technology, and he was sure that even his half-complete understanding of modern science will give him the edge he needs to take on a literal continent-spanning Empire. ⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛ UPDATES: Daily 19:00 JST Twitter: @ChellyArks

An unspoken agreement settled between us as we both got ready with our respective styles. While I assumed a stance that Mother taught me years ago with my body lowered on the ground and my blades splayed at both sides, Lise seemed to have adopted a reverse grip on her left-hand sword; her body postured in a way that her left side was more forward than the other.

 

This wasn't like anything Mother had taught. I guess this was something she developed for herself.

 

"I'm assuming Mother helped you develop that style," I guessed. "Let's see how it fares then, shall we?"

 

Giving each other a smirk, we dashed forward with our weapons drawn; our blades clashing immediately as we met at the center of the clearing. As opposed to my horrible performance against her Entshcluss earlier, I actually found it easier to defend against her right now as my blades flowed to counter-act her strikes.
