Part 16

**Part 16** is the sixteenth part of the Karsearin: The Biography of the Super Dragon.

## Plot

Because Kasler scared him off, Arin looks around while going to Alkanas, the capital of Batran with great anticipation, but the expected monsters did not come out. Even in the adventure stories of humans, monsters jump out on the way, and there are knights who defeat those monsters nicely. The knights who can defeat them wonderfully are spread out in the party, but the monsters do not come out. He says it's a town with a lot of monsters, so why can't he see them? Arin wants to see the swordsmanship of the wonderful humans he had only heard of, but unfortunately (?) monsters are nowhere to be seen. He is Arin who did not even think that the problem is that there are knights who could defeat monsters in the party. In fact, Arin's party now was about 300 people including the 50 people they had originally brought from Karsel and Kasler's guards, and there's no way there would be any stupid monsters that would dare to run into such a large army 'marching'. Even if they take the path to the monster's den, the monsters that were there are going to pack up and run away, but the path they pass is a safe road used by many travelers. Arin, who keeps his head out of the wagon and looks around with the expectation that 'Anything will going to happen∼∼', becomes increasingly disappointed as each day passed. However, it was a very exciting journey for the Prince of Libeid, Kasler. This is due to the fact that they are traveling with the idol of knights, the dragon slayer Sir Pluto fon Croword.

He asks him if it's true that he slit the dragon's breath with a sharp knife. He thinks that the dragon's breath ripped his armor to pieces at once. He asks how he diddge the dragon's wielding tail and slashed his sword. He thinks he's been busy running away saying what he's going to hit. He thinks that it would be great to fight against that huge dragon as well, and it would be a little scary. He thinks he's afraid he'll appear in his dreams. He asks if it's true that the white dragon Grateus was torn off with a sword with a blue sword aura. There are a lot of rumors about them, but when the rumors circulate, it should circulates provocatively, he wonders why he has wings and tails and only Darios has torso, and when he finds out, it's Mr. Gaster who stopped breathing, but it's true that Darios killed the dragon, he thinks he's Pluto who couldn't say, 'My sword was not able to cut a single dragon scale' while looking at this young successor of Libeid, who spit out questions with excited eyes. He says it's overrated, but his skills aren't as great as rumors suggest. He says he's very humble, and he is 27 years old and he asks if he will be like Sir Pluto in 7 years. He says that he will outperform himself in no time. Although Pluto is self-deprecating himself, his skills are not as bad as he is. No, rather, it should be said to be of the highest level. He is a Sword Master who is said to have fewer than 10 members among the Six Nations. People who use mana in a different form from mages and have reached the ultimate level dreamed of by anyone with a sword that can produce more power than humans with the technique of 'sword aura' are called Sword Masters. The technique of accumulating mana, the fundamental power that forms and sustains the world, in one's body through practice and meditation, and expresses it using a sword or other object, is mostly expressed in blue or white light, and the blade of the sword flows. From the basic use of increasing the destructive power and striking power of the sword while lowering it, to the high-level technique of collecting swords to attack from a distance or to kill many, even if the same Sword Master, the superiority and inferiority are quite different. Although the origin is the same in terms of using mana as a mage or a Sword Master, unlike a mage who uses mana as a sacrifice to the existence of a contract, it uses the power of the accumulated mana directly, so it does not have a wide destructive power, but the power concentrated in one place is often as good as magic. Even in the Knights Kingdom Libeid, there are only three people who use the sword aura, and since most of them have only gained strength through long-time training, Kasler has no choice but to look at this dragon slayer, who is not much older than him, with awe-inspiring eyes. He asks how he trained and became a Sword Master at that age. He replied that he was just a little more talented than others, and that Sir Darios could use a more powerful and powerful sword than himself. No matter how much Kasler looks at him with admiration from the side, Pluto's heart is not at ease. Pluto, his sword aura is frankly great. Being a Sword Master at that age is great, but regardless of his age, as a Sword Master, he has reached a considerable level, and Darios is even more amazing. However, their skills were of no use in front of the existence of a dragon. Darios took a break and was able to use the sharpness of his sword to barely kill the being, but neither Darios nor Pluto nor the four people who fought at that time felt a sense of victory. The exaggerated compliments they heard were rather painful to hear, but they are in a situation where they cannot be like this or that because of the gaze of others who look at them.

p.s [Why is mana used so much?]

As mentioned earlier, mana is the 'power' that sustains this world. As winter passes, spring comes, and the sun sets and the moon rises, it is a title of the fundamental energy that makes all phenomena in this world come true. It cannot be seen or touched like the wind. However, mages use that mana to use magic, and the sword masters, the highest level of swordsmen, use that mana to use sword aura. If you think of it easily and accept it as an oriental 'Qi', you will understand it quickly.
