Finding Your Way Home In Another World With The Gender Change Skill/Shadow & The Jester [Remake]
Chapter 42: The Spread of Information About Souji

“Then can you tell me where Souji is?” Saki asked in a serious tone, while looking at Kayle very sharply.

Kayle who heard the question, the atmosphere she had instantly turned very serious, then she started to open her mouth and said.

“Then, answer my question first, you are actually who is Shimotsuki-dono?” Kayle asked in a serious tone, while looking back at Saki very sharply.

Saki who heard her question was not answered and instead was asked another question, she became very upset, however, she still answered the question.

“I am his childhood friend Souji. and also his Fiancee” Saki replied happily while smiling very beautifully.

Everyone who was there became very shocked upon hearing Saki's reply. Asahi did not escape from it, then he accidentally immediately spouted the water he was drinking and dropped the cup he was holding.

When Kayle heard what Saki said, she immediately fell silent and tried to recall the entire conversation between her and the black-haired boy yesterday.

Kayle tries to find out if the boy has said anything about what Saki is saying right now, but, like his black-haired boy it did not say anything related to his personal matters.

On the other hand, Iris who heard that immediately looked at Saki with empty eyes, as if she was digesting the answer from Saki. Even so, Iris was still trying to reject the statement she had just heard.

Iris did know that the black-haired boy was one of the people that the King of this Kingdom summoned. However, Iris still could not accept the fact that the person who managed to make his heart flutter was owned by someone else, because that's why he immediately opened his mouth and said.

“Tu-wait a minute!! Can you repeat what you just said? Because maybe I misheard about the part where you claimed to be ‘Tokan’ from his” Said Iris with a worried tone while turning towards Saki.

Saki who heard that immediately frowned, because she was very upset to see that there was a woman who said that, as if a golden blonde woman who was in front of her, this, wanted to snatch Souji from her.

After a pause for a while, then Saki started to open her mouth and said.

“That's the truth, Souji and I were engaged when we were kids, and so, too, why are you asking me that Royal Knight Commander Captain Iris Wollfrod” Saki said in an exasperated tone while looking at Iris very sharply.

Iris who heard that immediately fell silent, because she did not know how to answer. Iris was indeed a little annoyed by this truth that she heard, even so, she still had to keep the honor that she had.

Iris was the Family Head of the WollFrod Noble Family who was very famous, for always producing extremely talented swordsmen, and because she was the current Head of the Family, she was the current Head of the Family, that is why he should carry the honor that the family has.

Iris had even been trained very hard by her own father from the time she was 4 years old. When children of his age are just busy playing, on the other hand he had to constantly swing a wooden sword while being continuously struck very hard if he made even the slightest mistake.

When Iris recalled all of those things, she inevitably became increasingly upset and could only clench her hands until they bled.

On the other hand, Saki who saw the behavior of Iris became very upset, because she knew that arguing now would only make her miss the opportunity to know the existence of Souji.

Saki could only cluck her tongue in annoyance and started to turn her gaze towards Kayle, then she started to open her mouth and said.

 “So can you now tell me where Souji is?” Saki said in an annoyed tone while looking at Kayle very sharply.

The question from Saki makes Asahi and Kayle wake up from her daydream. Asahi starts to win herself, then she decides to ask about something said by Saki before her later and starts to focus on listening to her students from Kayle.

On the other hand, Kayle becomes very surprised when she hears a sudden question from Saki and wants to talk about something else to her. However, when Kayle saw Saki's gaze, she inexplicably shuddered and reflexively told Saki everything.

“Then, here's the story...”.

.....

After Kayle told them everything, Asahi and Iris who heard it immediately had very complicated expressions on their faces. Because the two of them still couldn't believe what they had just heard.

On the other hand, when Saki heard the story from Kayle, she inexplicably became overjoyed and started to have a bright smile on her face.

Everyone who saw the behavior of Saki at this moment, they immediately looked at her with strange eyes, and inevitably they all started to wonder if this person was still sane.

If anyone asks about anything Kayle told them, then the answer is that she just told it all without lying in the slightest.

The story of Kayle starts from the moment when he saw thousands of Rank C monsters, namely [RockBird], were around the forest located near the highway.

Then Kayle also recounted how she met two Rank A and +A monsters namely [DeathBear] and [FlameVer], when she wanted to go to report about what she had seen before her.

However, due to his carelessness, he had to fight the two monsters alone. Kayle also tells about the Spirit Summoning she did, and how she managed to summon the Fire-type humanoid Spirit.

Kayle also recounted how she fought with the monster [DeathBear], and managed to make her use of the monster's Unique Skill, he also said that he managed to make Monster Rank –S [HellBear] a little overwhelmed.

Although the three people who heard the story actually ignored the passage, and waited for Kayle to tell about the black-haired boy she met.

And finally Kayle began to tell about how she and Souji could meet, and about how Souji very easily made Monster Rank –S like [HellBear] made a bed, the monster is still alive.

Asahi and Iris who heard that immediately shuddered, because they both understood very well how dangerous this Rank S monster was, even though this monster was only in Rank –S, but, however, this monster was only in Rank <TAG1>S, the monster still got the usual advantage possessed by S Rank monsters and above, namely the Unique Skill [Fast Regeneration].

When the two of them heard that Souji defeated the monster using only a wooden sword.

It makes Asahi's common sense about the power in this world to be destroyed, while for Iris, the power of the world is destroyed, this made his head stop working because he could not accept the reality he just heard.

Actually the reason the two of them became so shocked was because they both knew the speciality of this monster, they both knew that apart from having a very fast regeneration, they both knew that, [HellBear] also had extremely strong attack resistance, and this monster was also one of the few monsters that had extremely hard skin.

In addition, it was impossible to penetrate the skin of [HellBear], except using a weapon that was at least in the [Unique] class, at least, and it is very unlikely to penetrate the skin of [HellBear] using a wood.

On the other hand, Saki only becomes more and more happy when she hears the story about Souji from Kayle and she doesn't care about anything other than Souji. It was because of this that Asahi and Iris could only stare at him with empty eyes.

Kayle then continues her story, and when she says that she attacked Souji, the moment Saki heard that, she reflexively directly attacked Kayle's vital point with the intention to kill him.

Fortunately, Iris and Asahi realized it, and it was because of this that they both managed to stop her from destroying Kayle's head. After more than 30 minutes of Asahi lecturing Saki, Saki then told Kayle to continue her story.

(A/N: Starting from here, will go to the skipped section before it)

However, Kayle begins to continue her story in the part where she returns to Souji's place and tells him to point at the corpses of the monsters she lost.

Then Kayle and Souji started walking to various places, and all those places were filled with more than 42k monsters.

Then Kayle began to tell me about the 3 Souji sword techniques that she saw, when she heard that, the three girls in front of her instantly became very excited for different reasons.

Saki gets really excited to hear a cool story about Souji. Asahi became excited because she could see the sword technique possessed by this disciple, although she at the beginning became a little surprised when she heard that Souji could use a sword.

However, Asahi took it for granted, after she heard Saki's rant that made her head become even more sick. While Iris became so excited because she could know as well as learn about sword techniques from a monster like Souji.

Kayle who saw the enthusiasm of the three girls who were in front of her immediately nodded with understanding, because she herself had once been in the same position of these three girls.

Without further ado Kayle immediately began to explain the 3 sword techniques of Souji.

The first sword technique was named [Shimodzuki ato: Dai roku keitai: Sen no hayai surasshu].

This sword technique is a sword technique that is very suitable in the category of AOE. The reason why Kayle said that was because with this sword technique, Souji was able to kill over 10k monsters with a single slash.

Kayle also began to explain about the sword technique according to what Souji explained to her.

This sword technique starts from flowing all the QI in your body towards the second part of your legs and hands, at the same time as you flow your QI towards your feet and hands, you must also be able to maintain the circulation of the QI or you will accidentally explode your hands and feet.

And because of that, the most important thing about this technique is the control you have over the QI in the body. Because the QI has a function to increase speed, reflexes and sensitivity on that part of the body to its limit.

Once you can do that, all you need to do is start running with all your might while slashing through everything you've been through.

The second sword technique has the name [Shimodzuki ato : Dai kyu keitai : Ryusei rakka].

This sword technique also belongs to the AOE attack category which has a very large scale of destruction. The reason why Kayle put it into this category is because this attack can create a large crater that has an interior of more than 500 meters.

Kayle also began to explain about the sword technique according to what Souji explained to her.

This sword technique starts by channeling QI to the tip of the sword, and also, do not take it lightly, because you have to maintain the circulation of the incoming QI towards the tip of the sword.

Then you should also be able to maintain the balance of the QI flow that is at the end of the sword so as not to get out of control and explode. After that, you just need to jump as high as possible.

Then the last you only need to release the flow of QI before you save and channel all the QI to the place you want to go, the rest you just have to push it.

Kayle then explains that Souji did not tell her about the third sword technique used by her.

Even so, Kayle still tells what kind of third sword technique Souji uses. Kayle explained that this technique was used by Souji to kill a monster without damaging its body at all, and he concluded that this technique is more attacking towards the internal part of the body.

After that end Kayle finished her story with a farewell between her and Souji.

.....

So that's the story that Kayle told these three girls in front of her.

After Kayle finished her story, then Saki started to open her mouth and said.

“I guessed it, that Souji was the best, and there was no way anyone could beat him in terms of sword” Saki said with a joyful tone while smiling happily as well.

Iris and Asahi nodded to agree, because they both could tell just from hearing from Kayle's story that Souji was very good at swordsmanship.

However, Kayle did not approve of that and immediately answered Saki's words with a firm tone.

“No, that is actually a big mistake, because Shimotsuki-dono is not the strongest sword user” Kayle said in a firm tone while staring at his three with serious eyes.

The three of them who heard that inevitably became very surprised, as the three of them did not expect that Kayle would say that.

Then at the time Saki wanted to open her mouth to refute Kayle's claims, but Kayle cut her off and began to explain what she meant.

“I said it was not a play on the origin of judging her own, at the beginning I was also like you guys, assume that this Shimotsuki-dono is the strongest swordsman” Kayle said in a serious tone while looking at these three girls in front of him seriously.

“Will but, Shimotsuki-dono immediately denied the claim and immediately explained why he told me that he was not the strongest swordsman's lava” Kayle continued in the same tone as before while staring at the three with a wry smile.

The three people who were in front of Kayle at the moment inevitably became extremely shocked back, when the three of them heard that.

Then her final Asahi began to open her mouth and said.

“Then, can you give us an explanation from Shimotsuki-kun?” Asahi asked in a serious tone as she stared intently at Kayle.

Kayle just nodded her head to agree. The three people who saw it started to get serious again when Kayle started to open her mouth to speak.

“Shimotsuki-dono explained that if he was not the strongest sword user in the world, the one who deserved the title was the Master who taught him how to use the sword" Kayle said in a serious tone while still looking at these three people in front of her seriously.

“Shimotsuki-dono also explained, if the real reason he said it was because Shimotsuki-dono was not able to touch his teacher even once, when the two of them were doing sparing” Kayle continued in awe while starting to have a happy smile on her face.

After that the four of them continued their chat until the sky began to be colored in orange.
