Sin and Virtue System

Chapter 63 63. Preparations [1] : <Clay Dolls>

[A/N: There is an opportunity for you at the end of the chapter!]

...

Three days had passed and now there were only 8 days left for the investigator's arrival.

In these three days, Logan was trying to get a good grasp of his sword techniques.

He knew that adequate preparations for his guest's arrival were necessary and after his miserable condition against the Wyvern, Logan wanted to create a special move that could turn the tables in his favor.

But before creating such a move, he had to first work on his foundation of sword fighting.

And so he did the inevitable, the training!

...

Near the riverbank, in an open area, surrounded by huge trees and bushes, Logan was swinging his sword frantically.

"Ha!"

Swoosh!

Currently, there was no technique involved in any of his swings, it contained sheer power.

Ever since Gazel's sword accepted Logan as its master, the blunt sword was colored red and had a sharp edge, but it was not yet upgraded.

He had to kill Alpha monsters, however, they were rare to find near Selva village anymore. Hence, he planned to do it afterward.

"Ha!" Logan swung his sword with every ounce of power inside him.

Swoosh! Reacting to his swing, the air drifted apart as if it was cut by the sword.

"Ha!"

Swoosh!

A trail of sparkling red particles was left behind after his every swing.

"Ha!"

Swoosh!

The particles remained in the air for a little longer after the sword cut the air.

Logan tried to stay focused but he would still get distracted because of the red particles.

His body was drenched in sweat as he was using his complete fourth-circle strength to swing the sword.

"Huff... this isn't working..."

As he was a fourth circle being, he was quick to adapt to the new technique.

In the past three days, he first completed his foundation, then he imbued his demonic energy in the sword, and now he was swinging the sword with both, strength and his demonic energy.

He was trying to replicate "something" for the past three days.

[Spiritual Sword] or so he called.

According to him, he tried to recall the sensation he felt when he held Gazel's sword to cut the Wyvern into two pieces.

As he had some knowledge about the fantasy novels from his previous world, he thought of fusing his strength and demonic energy to create this one move which he called, [Spiritual Sword].

"Failure again... huff..."

Logan stopped swinging the sword and sat down.

Whenever he tried to recall the sensation from his fight with the Wyvern in the crimson-black realm, he couldn't do it.

'Hot, thirsty, burning, and... and... ugh!'

His mind was fixated to achieve a card that could be used when there will be someone with equal or greater strength than him.

"Should I try using affinities?" He questioned but did not move.

In his mind, there was a myriad of questions.

'What was that sensation? What should I do? Should I run away? But I've already messed with Selva village... what should I do to get this move complete?'

The trail of red particles was not what he wanted.

He wanted that beautiful arc that shot up like a laser and bisected the unbreakable scales of the Wyvern and passed through it like a hot knife through butter.

"Tsk. I should hunt some beasts."

Whenever his mood soured he hunted the beasts in the vicinity to vent his anger.

Another reason for Logan's bad mood was, he lacked a good sparring partner.

The first thing he did after strengthening his foundation was to fight his subordinates that is the blood knight, Lara, Lisa, and Anna.

Unfortunately, none of them could put a match against him, much less spar with him.

He even put himself at a great disadvantage by not using any of his cheat abilities. Still, none of them could spar with him.

He tried to fight them all with only his strength and agility, but again, they could not fight Logan properly.

His thick skin was impenetrable and catching up with his speed was nearly impossible for any of them.

Lara was the weakest, while Lisa was the laziest in the group.

Other demons under his command were useless as well.

Only Anna and the Blood Knight were able to fight, but not well enough to pose any danger to him.

Because of this, he was pissed and disappointed.

So he went near the river to train alone.

After the incident in the crimson-black abyss, he was determined to change himself.

Even though he was busy training for the past three days, he was still collecting points.

He was not dumb to stop having sex after all.

He also planned to use roulette again and get another sin from the system before he fought with the investigator.

"Huff huff... I need a break."

After swinging the sword for some more time, Logan called it off a day.

Using his complete demonic energy for every attack took a toll on his body and after seeing that the results he had imagined were not yet achieved, he left the training.

[Time left for the Investigator's arrival: 8 days]

...

After the eventful night in the church, every night 10 to 12 women from the village were sent to Logan's room so that he could collect points.

But because of his unsatisfactory results and self-disappointment, today he was not in the mood, so instead of going to his room, he went to the rooftop of the Mayor's mansion.

"Haa..." He sat in a corner and looked at the moon with a dejected face.

The moon was in the first quarter, but it was still beautiful. The sky was filled with numerous stars but he didn't know the name of any of them.

Did it matter to him? Not at all.

He was just trying to divert his attention so that some Idea could pop up. But to his bad luck, this method did not work.

A few minutes passed but he couldn't get through his mental blockage.

'The red particles define something-'

"Ha!" Breaking his chain of thoughts was a female voice.

When he looked down, he saw three females, doing something individually away from the mansion.

They were Lara, Lisa, and Anna.

As Logan was watching from the roof, he had the high ground.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Anna was running on the narrow road filled with hundreds of obstacles like stones and boulders, without any armor on her body, as she was working on her agility.

After being converted into a demoness, her skin turned thick just like Logan's, so Anna did not require armor anymore, which helped her to move quickly.

However, she was trained to fight with heavy armor on, so balancing her body without any weight was a new thing for her.

Shinnggg!

Lisa on the other hand was swinging her sword at a boulder while chanting some magic. She was putting magic buffs while fighting with a sword.

Thwack! Suddenly, her strength increased and she landed a powerful hit on the boulder which caused it to break.

Earlier, she was only a healer in the group, and even though she had mastered different weapons for the sake of Jin, she was too lazy to practice them again.

But after seeing the disappointment on Logan's face, Lisa pledged to do whatever it takes to make Logan proud of her.

Clenching the hilt of her sword again, she started hitting another boulder.

When Logan's attention shifted,

"What is she doing?" he questioned as he saw Lara sitting in front of a pile of soil.

The training that Anna and Lisa were doing was familiar to Logan, however, Lara's training was something he had never seen.

She was drawing something on the ground with her hands.

Swoosh!

What Logan saw next caught him completely off guard.

"What the fuck?!" he exclaimed.

Lara had created a figure similar to her from the pile of soil!

"What is that?" When Logan narrowed his eyes and tried to look at it with his [God of War] and [Eyes of Incubus], he was dumbfounded.

...

<User Name: Lara Ishte.

Magic used: Earth Magic.

Spell: Clay (Level1)

Category: Common

Skill used: [Clay Dolls (Level 2)] close to (Level 3)

Description: When the adventurers go on faraway adventures, they opt to get a porter or an adventurer with specialized earth magic.

Since the utensils to cook and serve the food for the entire party can be created at any time required, the storage space to carry increases.

It also helps the party to have an adventurer who can fight as well as cook, instead of being only a porter. (Dead weight). Hence, the spell "clay" used to craft objects from the soil is widely known.

#2 Skill [Clay Dolls] is a simple skill used to create dolls from the soil using the spell "Clay". (It was a skill created by a person called Rudues.)>

...

"Who knew that Lara would use an earth magic spell, used to craft small objects from the soil, to create a replica of herself..."

It was a level common spell used to craft utensils and artifacts from the soil, but Lara was doing something that no one had ever seen.

She had a revolutionary Idea.

"If Lara is using the same clay to craft a doll looking similar to her. Can she...? What if she can...? She is specialized in holy magic as well. Isn't that life magic? Oh, but now she is a demoness..." Logan started talking to himself.

"Hahaha, if she can do something like that, it will be crazy!"

A grin appeared on his face as he thought about some Ideas; Ideas that could trample the world.

"Even if she is weak right now... she could do it in the future, right?"

Although he knew that the current Lara could not do such a thing, he thought it was worth a try.
