Chapter 2 - I will be the Strongest Swordsman!

Actually, he regrets buying that two swords at that time because besides being handsome, it's nowhere comparable to the Free Item – Snow Chaser given by the system. He thought that sword can be matched by his temperament, so he wasted points buying them.

So, he was also forced to buy another sword the Sandai Kitetsu without them knowing where it appears. He didn't use the 2 (5th Grade) 'useless' sword and the 5th Grade Sword that came from his father. He also didn't try to use 3-Sword Style in crisis because compare to 3-Sword Style, the 2-Sword Style was his forte. Especially when the memories of that person from the Earth appear in his mind which is, that person was left-handed.

Left-Handed + Right Handed means he's an all-rounder. Snow Chaser + Sandai Kitetsu (Cursed Sword), Tristan feels the terrifying aura of the latter sword, as if it wants to kill anything, but he managed to suppress it.

And because of that, they managed to kill their enemies, but unluckily, his 3rd Leader didn't Survive. He carried the body of his senior until he reached station 92.

After he returned to station 92, he finds the troops who planned to assassinate them and planned to trouble them. The good thing is there's a sentry and another guard who managed to control them.

After that incident, he was detained in a prison for 1 week.

After he was released from prison, no other team wants to recruit him, as if they were afraid of something. They think Tristan was bad luck. There are also other rumors that spread that the real culprit of the death of his senior was Tristan, and all he did was drama to gain attention from others as a victim because based on his statements one of his comrades escaped but based on the record, that guy didn't come back and missing. Maybe Tristan already killed him to shut his mouth.

When he heard the rumors, he crippled anyone who dares to spread the false accusation to him and he was detained again for a half-month.

After he was released again and saw no other parties planning to invite him, he goes to the forest alone. He also didn't want to accept the invitation of 'that' group since both parties already had a grudge against each other.

And after a few months, Tristan again made great progress and achieved a Senior Stages that made his opponents alarmed by his progress.

And 6 months ago, when the hunter team attempted to assassinate him, the 'Training Field' helped him to relax his exhausted mentality. The cat and mouse pursuing game took two days until they meet the two Leoporos Enhanced Grade who was mating. Because of the anger of disturbing them, they attacked Tristan and the other hunter team.

This is where Tristan got an opportunity to fight back. He was lucky not only because the other experts were water elements, but also because he managed to breakthrough the 1st form of Thunder Breathing. Water was a disadvantage when confronting lightning.

He managed to sneak attacked the Leoporos and the Expert Stage Hunter with a one-shot, one kill. After the female Leoporos killed the two Senior Stage, she returned and saw the death of his mate, she was enraged. Tristan thought that will be his end, but the system quickly reminds him to buy the Bloodline D.

Yes, after he managed to kill the enhanced beast and the Expert Stage, he got an additional +1300 points, 800 for the expert stage and 500 for the enhanced beast which made his points accumulated a total of 15000+ points which is enough to buy the Bloodline D., worth 15,000 Points.

At that time, he feels the endless willpower, instinct, and power boost in a crisis and he managed to kill the female leoporo. Of course, in exchange, he got a scar with a scratch mark on his body and bruised on the other part of his body.

The good thing is after that incident, his appetite increased, and in just more than weeks and he managed to heal his body except for the scratched mark on his body.

He feels his strength became a lot stronger as long as he eats.

And no hunter group dare to provoke him, even his previous enemies had shrunk their heads inside their shells, afraid of being implicated by Tristan.

And also because of that incident, he got a new nickname, the "Black Swordsman". Not only because his surname was Black but also because the color black was synonymous with being bad, because of his bad-tempered, and unlucky because whoever was implicated by him whether it was a teammate or enemies will be unlucky, and evil because anyone he heard who spoken badly to him will also be in trouble.

And more than a month has passed since the incident happens, and he managed to accumulate 5000 points to buy Berserker's Blood Ability.

This ability was similar to his previous unique ability the 'Hand Rush', the difference is Hand Rush ability can only boost the dexterity of the hands while the Berserker's Blood Ability, as long as you've got injured, the faster he attacks, and the elemental resistance also increased.

With the combination of the thunder breathing technique, Bloodline D., and Berserker's Blood, he can already fight the normal and enhanced beasts, and he quickly accumulated points to buy Namikaze Minato's Reflex Talent Card with 7,500 points. With the increased talent, makes his power became more and more stronger compared to the other Senior Stage

And with just 3-4 months, he made another breakthrough, Late-Stage Senior, he also managed to accumulate more than 20 thousand points until today.

Remembering his past, he couldn't help but sigh and laugh.

"Hahahaha, I'm really strong!"

[Tsk] The system rolled its eyes, even though there were no eyes.

(Why, system, you had a problem?)

[Nope]

(I think you have)

[Whatever]

[You already had more than 20 thousand points, do you have anything to unlock?]

Tristan looked at the remaining item, especially the 3 Great Grade Sword then looked at his points then looked at 'Dark Repulser' and 'Elucidator', every time he looked at it, he wanted to break them. If he didn't buy them then he can buy 2 Great Grade Swords now. Not only did it get him in trouble but also didn't help him in times of crisis.

"Damn, I wasted 3,800 Points!"

[Hoho, didn't you say before as a future Sword Grandmaster, only that sword can match your aesthetics and greatness, what now, you're taking it back? What a double standard]

(Shut up! if you advise me at that time, would I waste my money buying that?)

[That's actually not a waste, at that time if you're not focused on the appearance of the sword, blindly fight a form without essence, and fight rashly. If you try to find the meaning of your sword, calm yourself, even a wooden sword can knock down your enemies. You're just lucky at that time you broke through to Intermediate, otherwise, you will die with no bones remaining. Maybe God pity you and give you a chance-]

(Could you please stop your philosophical teaching again, how many times did you say that to me? I already know, I understand, I've got it already.)

[So, don't blame your sword. It's not about the sword. There's a saying that there's no useless thing, only useless use- Eh…}

(SYSTEM! I WILL KILL YOU!)

[Hohoho! Kill me? You can try brat! Come on, I will just appear here in front of you, come on baby kill me!]

(YOU BASTARD!)

[Are you angry? Are you angry? angry? angry? angry?]

(F*ck, I'm done.)

[Playing time is enough, hurry up and buy your weapon]

(Who's playing with you? And hoho, are you in hurry? What if I don't buy it? Are you angry? angry?)

[Hohoho, you had guts brat! If you don't buy, then don't buy. It's a pity for GREAT GRADE swords, it's a pity.]

Tristan gritted his teeth looking angrily at the system.

[What a great sword, you know it's a GREAT GRADE, it's a pity, your master doesn't like you, he likes his 3k swords more than you hahaha]

(You bastard, I didn't say that!)

[You said you don't want to buy? Then don't buy, let this GREAT GRADE sword stay with me hahaha]

(I didn't say that I'm just asking!)

[Whatever, hurry up and choose!]

(Shusui!)

[Tsk… You had guts huh, I advise you to choose Wado Ichimonji! You cannot handle the other two]

(This… That plain looking?)

[Tsk, you are still obsessed with looks right, tsk… tsk, you really don't learn anything. Do you think a Great Grade Sword was just plain looking?]

[Had you seen your memory? I think you can see the Wado Ichimonji was the most mysterious and low-key sword that Roronoa Zoro's had.]

[If you purchase the Enma or Shusui, you're just wasting your points, you cannot use it. Other than that, you're just making a wedding dress for others. Once the high-rank enemy targeted you… ho hoo.]

(Fine, fine, I got it. Wado Ichimonji! As a person who's got Roronoa Zoro's Template, you must have this sword!)

[Ding! Are you sure you want to buy this item (Wado Ichimonjij)?]

(Yes!)

[Ding 22,400 Points – 13,500 Points = 8,900 Points]

[Ding! Congratulation, you've unlocked Wado Ichimonji!]

(System Hurry up give it to me!)

[Fine, Here]

Suddenly, there's a glowing light in a form of a sword appears in front of him.

Long white sword-shaped katana, a Japanese-style hilt, and a white scabbard. There's no doubt, it's Wado Ichimonji.

Tristan was excited and immediately took it out in the scabbard.

He can see the clean white blade on it, he can also see his face on the blade like a mirror.

But suddenly it began to shake.

Tch…tis..tchis…

"Wha-What? System, what happened?"

The sword tried to get loose out of his hand but Tristan hindered it.

[Don't just stand there and do nothing! Feel it on your hand, it seems it wanted to say something.]

"Ok!" Tristan immediately close his eyes and feel the sword.

(Strong… Strong… Strongest… Strongest… Swordsm… Swordsman… Strongest)

"Strongest Swordsman? It wanted to be the strongest swordsman?"

[There's no doubt, that sword might have a will of Kuina or Zoro, if you wanted to conquer it, you must promise it sincerely otherwise it will reject you.]

"Oh, why it's so troublesome?"

Tch… tch…

The Wado Ichimonji continues shaking.

[It cannot be called 'Great Grade Sword' for nothing. Actually, in all Great Grade Swords, the requirements of Wado Ichimonji were the easiest, otherwise, if you pick Shusui, it might check your qualification, for Enma, it will eat and force you to release willpower]

"Che… Why that Shusui was demanding? It's just 12,500 points"

[That's because it's a 'Black Sword', which means it's already reached the limits of its potential. While the Enma and Wado Ichimonji still didn't reach its limits and still has the potential to reach Supreme Grade]

"Supreme Grade!" The eyes of Tristan shine with full of yearning.

Tch..tchh…tchis..

Tristan looked at the Wado Ichimonji and said "I will try my best to fulfill your requirements. I will be the strongest swordsman!"

Tchh...tchhh…tchh

"What?"

[Try? Try? What will you try? It is not easy to say 'I will be the strongest swordsman'? What do you mean by trying? Where did your guts go? Didn't you say, you will be the most arrogant person above heaven? The arrogant man is just trying? Wado Ichimonji, Wado Ichimonji can you hear me? This man said he will try his best to be the Strongest Swordsman, will you accept it?]

Tchh..Tchh..Tch…

Hearing what the system said, Tristan felt embarrassed, his face was red looking angrily at the system in front, and shouted "It's just a mistake, I didn't mean to say that!"

[Hoho]

"Wado Ichimonji, don't listen to it. I promise you, I will be the strongest swordsman!"

Tch..Tchh..

[Where's your Sincerity?]

"Wado Ichimonji, as long as I live, for better or for worse, for richer or poorer, in sickness and In health, I promise you I will be the-"

Tch..Tchh

[My God! Tristan are you proposing to the sword?]

Tristan's face was blushing and said "Could you please shut up, I'm doing my best!"

"Wado Ichimonji, I promise you, even I will go straight to the hell of fire or in the Disaster's Beast den, as long as I will be the strongest swordsman in the world, I will take the challenge! If I can't keep my promise, I will kill myself using you!"

Then the Wado Ichimonji stopped.

Tristan smiled and said, "Please advise me!"
