The first time Roger saw the shrine, he felt something was odd. It had a place but no item, and it was positioned in a very important location.

“Or perhaps the inheritance has been severed,”

Higurashi Chika spoke.

“The formal inheritance of swordsmanship from the Autumn Water Fraction includes two weapons, one long and one short. Only when combined and cultivated to the highest realm can the corresponding Guardian Spirit be condensed.”

“But now…”

Higurashi Chika sighed and then shouted loudly, drawing the weapon in her hand. Her body’s energy fluctuated, and under Roger’s gaze, she moved swiftly.

With her movement and slashes, the power accumulating in Higurashi Chika’s body grew stronger.

Roger was surprised to find that the frail girl before him had already displayed a power far surpassing the peak of the Second Tier.

Yet, this power didn’t recede. Instead, it continued to escalate.

And then it broke through that boundary.

The Spiritual Power enveloping her body had become so dense it couldn’t dissipate, and the shrine nearby, reacting to the force emanating from Higurashi Chika, also emitted bursts of light.

The two resonated with each other, forming a closed circuit, with the surging Spiritual Power around Higurashi Chika rolling and sketching out a vague shape.

However, quickly the almost formed Spiritual Power suddenly collapsed, sending a wave of energy sweeping outwards, and Higurashi Chika’s face turned pale.

“Although I have reached the zenith of accumulating Spiritual Power, unfortunately, due to the severed inheritance, I will never be able to take that crucial step.”

Higurashi Chika gripped the weapon tightly, “With my current physical condition, without a Guardian Spirit, controlling such immense power is extremely dangerous.”

“So I can only seal a portion of the Spiritual Power within this weapon.”

“That’s also why I agreed to your previous condition; after all, no one is willing to continue cultivating an inheritance that is doomed to end.”

Roger nodded.

But his mind was pondering another issue. In that moment of explosive power, Higurashi Chika had displayed a terrifying strength that far exceeded the limits of her tier.

This strength, even if increased several times, didn’t seem threatening to Roger, but that wasn’t what caught his interest.

It was that horrifying, entirely self-derived burst without side effects!

This was completely different from the Transcendents he had encountered in the Western World.

In the Western World, the Transcendents’ power levels before a battle were almost immediately evident after a burst of power.

Although some could employ secret techniques or Cursed Items to increase their strength, such opportunities were rare and not something as routine as what Higurashi Chika had just demonstrated.

With this in mind, Roger squinted slightly.

The Transcendents of Sunrise, no, they should be called Cultivators. If they commonly held similar techniques, the fights among the High Tier would be incredibly fierce.

While startled by this realization, an additional thought occurred to Roger.

His body and soul were a result of a curious coincidence, the most important of which was help from the Hunter’s Cabin.

Is it possible…

I too can learn their control over power?

In fact, after entering the Fourth Tier, Roger had found that the increase in his power had reached a limit, for his Pale Blood didn’t come from long years of accumulation.

It was born of assimilation and plundering.

“Guardian Spirit?”

Roger suddenly took an interest. If ordinary people could harness Spiritual Power by practising swordsmanship to condense their own Guardian Spirits,

Then his body…

Should surely be capable of doing so as well.

When he had upgraded the second Hunter’s Cabin to its limit, the trait Roger obtained was Sword Heart.

[Sword Heart]: Your practice and understanding of swordsmanship far exceed that of ordinary people. Mimicking, penetrating, innovating, your quantitative accumulation will bring about a qualitative change. Swordsmanship in your hands will no longer be just a skill for killing.

This ability wasn’t much of an upgrade for Roger; in some ways, it didn’t even match the conditions to obtain that reward.

But here and now, combined with the Sword Seal, this ability would become incredibly powerful.

It seems there are many abilities that need to be explored in depth.

Uma’s choices for Roger were very sensible; if it were a normally inherited faction, even for some rare Transcendent items, they probably wouldn’t want to involve a stranger so casually.

Higurashi Chika, evidently, had far fewer concerns.

With the Autumn Water Fraction’s inheritance severed, the entire faction was left with only her, with nothing more to lose.

Thinking of this, Roger curiously asked, “May I ask, what is the Guardian Spirit of the Autumn Water inheritance?”

“There’s nothing to hide,” Higurashi Chika seemed quite open.

“It’s a Nekomata.”

“A cat?” Roger raised an eyebrow, suddenly a thought flashing through his mind.

“It’s a Nekomata, not a cat; they’re two different creatures.”

Higurashi Chika frowned slightly in disapproval and spoke,

“Are you really from Sunrise? How do you not even know this common knowledge?”

Roger hastily brushed it off with a laugh, “I just recently returned to Sunrise, I’ve been studying abroad for a long time, so…”

Higurashi Chika showed an expression of understanding.

Roger hastily went along with it, “So some basic knowledge I might be missing and hope you could help me catch up.”

Having Higurashi Chika’s vivid explanations was much better than dryly searching through information. Besides, the details Uma provided had many gaps.
