Chapter 23: The Imperial Claymore
Just by being the Imperial Claymore, I felt its handle nice and perfectly suited to my hand.
(Author's note: don't think about how such a size goes well with a 7 year old girl.)
The weight is heavy, but it was to be expected. I try to make some movement and I almost got carried away by the momentum.
I try some combination, and I notice that my size does not go with the sword.
Dia:" I wonder if it's better using my wings."
I spread my wings of demons. At the moment I have 3 pairs of wings showing that I am a high rank devil.
Scathach:" If you want to use your wings to practice with this sword, you have to go somewhere else. Go to the training ground."
I had forgotten that I was not in a place suitable for what I wanted to do.
I went to the training ground and started flying and then I started to make movements. It's a little bit like a broadsword but with slightly larger dimensions and also a larger weight.
The more I move, the more I get used to it. I try some broadsword technique to see if I can use it with this weapon.
I increase my flying speed to try to give more weight to my shots.
My speed starts to get faster and faster, I even manage not to be caught by the momentum if I change direction abruptly.
I try an experiment that is to make a long horizontal movement and then use this momentum to increase the speed of another horizontal swing and continue to see how fast I could turn.
(He's spinning like a spinning top right now.)
It made me feel like I almost threw up.
Scathach:" If this attack touched anyone he would have very serious damage or a death. But if instead you used this weapon but made from your POD and instead of making these movements horizontally you did so vertically even a demon of Satan rank would be dead. Only one flaw has been noted, and that is that it is extremely hard to hit your target with this attack."
While I was trying to calm my heart Scathach-sensei was teaching me a better way to use this technique.
Dia:" Wait until I get used to it enough not to get dizzy after I could start using your attack method."
Rimuru approached with a worried expression.
Rimuru:" Are you all right, Dia-sama?"
Dia:" Just dizzy and a urge to vomit or it's okay. Let me rest for a few minutes and I'll be fine afterwards."
Scathach:" That was a bit of a surprise. Let her quick tour to make an experience."
Dia:" You are wrong to say that Scathach-sensei. Your experience to you can cause death so mine is still passable."
Rimuru and Sera looked at me and wondered when it was okay to want to vomit.
Dia:" Otherwise, Rimuru have you found a weapon that suits you? 3
Rimuru:" Indeed, Dia-sama, I present you my weapon. It comes from Japan and is called a katana. "
This weapon is weird you'd say a sword but it has only one side with a blade.
Scathach:" We must be careful, Rimuru. This weapon is very sharp but very fragile. If we do not know how to use it, it is useless."
I looked at Rimuru's katana and tried to reproduce it with my POD.
My improvement is so great in control that I had no trouble making a katana.
But the problem is that this katana in terms of design is not original.
Scathach:" Very good control. The time for you to produce a crimson weapon is much faster than at the beginning of the training. "
Dia:" Fortunately, I would despair otherwise. "
Scathach:" I think I found a technique so you don't have to focus on the crimson weapon when you fight. "
She really has the solution to one of my biggest problems.
Dia:" And that she is the solution. "
Scathach:" Put runes on the weapon."
