Chapter 30: Taken away
Arthur was in the front yard, currently practicing his sword skills.
Back when he was a soldier without any blessings, with nothing to rely on but his sword, survival demanded that he develop his own techniques.
Through countless experiments and trials, he discovered a striking truth: there was a significant difference between a normal sword and one that vibrated. A glaring difference.
A vibrating sword could slice through objects with astonishing ease—so much so that even a novice could cleave a mountain rock with one slash.
Clarsen, who had studied the phenomenon closely, realized that even a slight but continuous vibration in the blade altered its cutting power dramatically. That realization led him to create a skill based entirely on the concept.
By augmenting his body through precise muscle control and focused energy output, Arthur could replicate the technique.
Clarsen believed that when a sword vibrates at a specific frequency—ideally one that resonates with the natural structure of the target—it weakens the molecular bonds within the material. This phenomenon, known as resonant disruption, allows the sword to pass through otherwise solid objects with minimal resistance. The key isn’t raw force, but the perfect frequency alignment between the blade and the target.
’Let’s see if I still got it...’ Although he said that Arthur knew that his experience wouldn’t fade away just because he was in a new body.
He aimed at the thick log before him.
He was holding a blunt sword that his father threw into the storage room a few days ago.
With the current condition, the sword wouldn’t be able to even slice vegetables, forget about human flesh.
