Magic and Martial War God

Chapter 104: Shocking Klink

"So, only forty peoples are ready to go with me. That's kind of nice." Johnny laughed while sitting in front of the forty peoples. He knew some of them; at least around twenty were from previous battle while twenty were new.

"If it wasn't for you being so late, we would've more numbers." Natasha made a helpless look while reminding his mistakes once again.

"We are going to war, not in my friend's marriage. Numbers matters for weak, for strong, nothing matters." Suddenly, Johnny made a terrible expression while speaking, then once again changed his expression and spoke "And some of you have survived the previous catastrophe, I believe all of you are strong."

If his previous words made them a little terrified, then his second sentence made some of them blushed with shame. They found what Johnny did to the fourth prince, which is why they were terrified by that look.

"But we may be going up against the whole army of monsters." Natasha still had an unwilling face as she was a little terrified by the previous incident.

"Don't worry, our plan is to capture 3A 3E Dark Energy Mines, and those mines were guarded by Second Rank Monsters. As long as, nothing unexpected happens, we'll be safe." Johnny spoke with a carefree expression but there was a flash of worry in his eyes.

Who knows what unexpected thing might happen? Thinking of this, Johnny suddenly spoke "As I said, there might be many uncertainties in this mission. If you want, you can withdraw any-time before the war."

Hearing his words, everyone's expression didn't change. No-one wants to come here knowing what happened before, but they were forced for their own benefits. They want resources, and family can give them if they were to participate in this war.

If Johnny hadn't missed the time, then not only these people but even many princes of the Fenton family would need to come. But Johnny missed the correct time, and so they got a chance to retaliate.

"Sir, we want resources and for that, we need to bear all kinds of uncertainties. So we can't back down now." A person in the crowd took a step forward and spoke with a serious expression.

"You are indeed right. Cultivation is full of uncertainties. If you aren't ready to face those uncertainties, then you shouldn't cultivate. So this time, we are going to finish everything as fast as we can." Johnny spoke as he nodded towards that person's words.

"Cousin, do we have any weapons on this plane?" Johnny looked at Natasha and asked.

"Yes, we do have some. Are you planning to use it? Even if we use them, it might not enough for clearing those mines." Natasha was startled by his question. She thought Johnny wished to use it, so she shook her idea by imagining it.

"We are not going to use it for claiming those mines, at least not all of them. As I said earlier, we are going to finish everything quickly, so we need them for clearing our paths. I think those weapons may not be strong, so we are going to use them against Rank One Monsters." Johnny put his hands on his chin as he spoke with a deep glance at her.

"By the way, we also have someone who has a high grasp over weapons. Isn't it fourth cousin?" Suddenly, his gaze moved towards the fourth prince who was standing at the corner listening to everyone with no words out of his mouth.

When Johnny suddenly called him, he was surprised and a prideful expression appeared on his face. He looked at Johnny with disdain on his face as he spoke "Of course, as a Battle Armor Master I can manipulate and strengthen all kind of weapons."

"Good, with you, we've a higher chance to win. Once we reach near the first mine, all of us will jump and fight against those monsters, so before we reach down. Your job is to clear the path as much as you can." Johnny made a satisfied expression, ignoring his disdained expression, and spoke with a little chill on his words to give him a suppression.

'Damn, just you wait. It would be you that will die in this battle.' Feeling this gaze, the fourth prince was terrified but still smiled and said "Don't worry; I'll start my job right now." Then, he ran away.

"Aren't you worried he'll mess up?" Natasha got closer to him as she spoke with an anxious tone.

"But I want him to mess up. I want him to mess up really bad." Hearing her concern, Johnny made a cold smirk as thought 'A.I., modify the weapon system completely!'

After that, he began to discuss other things with Michal, Klink, and Mira. Rocky and Rose didn't come, but they were still here. Currently, they are in a different room while Natasha was making plans with others in a separate room.

"What level are you in Bronze Sword Body Essence Refining Art?" After he distributed the copy all of them, not only them even Natasha, Rose, and Rocky got this art. After all, as a member of the sword sect, they need to comprehend sword.

Since all of them were willing to follow the sword path, even if they don't have much talent, with Kendo Improvement Fluid, everyone got their sword talent rise.

Of course, the most obvious improvement was from Klink since he was not only hardworking but also got the Kendo Improvement Fluid at first. But Johnny didn't know how much they have really improved.

Bronze Sword Body Essence Refining Art was divided into two parts; Sword Essence and Bronze Body. It was a kind of body tempering art that uses sword energy as its key ingredient. Sword Essence is the ultimate form of Sword Energy, and this art allows one to slowly condense sword essence in their body.

There are two ways to master sword energy; Sword Comprehension or Sword Veins. People who have the right method can follow the right instruction and open sword veins to condense sword energy.

But this method is rather easy and fast which is also the reason why many people don't consider this. Well, it is easy and fast so why not? Because this path is considered to be the path of false swordsmanship.

This path doesn't have Sword Intent while Sword Intent is the most important aspect of a swordsman. Because a person is relying on others to comprehend the sword energy, he can't form his own sword intent. So this is why it is considered false swordsmanship.

But Sword Heart Method is different, considering the level ranks of the last nine sword veins; it is completely different from other methods. There is no mentioning of the ranking of sword veins in other methods because these rankings are based on comprehension.

Previously, Johnny took Sword Spirit Grass to condense Earth Rank and Heaven Rank Sword Veins. He did so because the sword spirit grass holds the comprehension of the sword. These grasses not only hold sword energy but also the comprehension is hidden in that sword energy.

Sword Spirit Grass can only be found in the places where a true swordsman achieved Sword Dao. Those grasses were lucky to get baptized by sword dao so they hold sword comprehension on them. And this is also why Sword Veins Stage can only practice up Fifth Level Sword Energy.

Previously, his comprehension over sword energy was pretty much shallow but after earning enlightenment from his brother, he strengthens his comprehension over sword energy,

But still, he was in the Sixth Level of Sword Energy but Klink's answer made his confidence collapse.

"Sect Master, I've reached the fourth level of sword energy realm."

"Cough, cough" Hearing him, Johnny almost choke himself to death. He had resources, enlightenments, Sword King Manuals and he was a barely sixth level of sword energy. He even asked Klink to use his own resources to comprehend sword energy.

"What happened to you, Sect Master?" Seeing his choking, Klink made an anxious face getting closer to Johnny.

"N-nothing, I was just surprised by you calling me Sect Master. You don't have to call me that." Johnny can't say I choke myself after hearing your ridiculous comprehension.

"Of course, he has to call you that. You are the sect master, and if others don't respect you. How would you manage your own sect?" Suddenly, a cold voice rang in the room. This voice belongs to Natasha, she spoke as she walked towards them.

"Umm, but when we are alone, you don't have to call me that." Johnny also realized this but still made an argument.

"No, whether we are alone or not. You are the sect master now. Everyone has to call you sect master. If you don't get respect, how could your sect gain some?" Natasha made a little cold face and spoke.

Her words made other nods their head at Johnny. Finally seeing this, Johnny got no choice but to accept it. He looked at Klink and asked "So Klink, how did you practice the fourth level of sword energy so soon? I don't think you've any sword-related resources, right?"

"No, I don't have any. But I was able to awaken Earth Rank Sword Magic. Whenever I practice sword, my comprehension increases, and I was able to reach the fourth level so quickly. Not only that, but I also have something to discuss with you sect master."

"Oh!" Everyone made a surprised look except, Johnny. He immediately asked 'A.I., I also have sword magic. So why my comprehension didn't increase?'

'Because Sword Creation Magic is the talent of an elf, not Host's. It can help you awaken Sword Element at some point, but since this magic was used by the book inside your broken mana space, it doesn't increase comprehension of the sword. You can feel it whenever you comprehend Thunder Dragon Sacred Art. Your element makes it is easier to comprehend that Dao.'

"Oh!" Johnny finally understands then he suddenly remembered Klink's words as he hurriedly asked "What do you want to discuss?"

"I have completed Bronze Sword Body Essence Refining Art, so is it possible to get higher rank art. It is no longer helpful to me." Klink made an innocent look as he asked but his words pierced Johnny's heart deeply.
