"I can't tell you about the footwork I just did. After all, it's a secret technique from my sect that the expired loli taught me, and I can't pass it on without her permission."

"But the sword technique I just used was my own creation, so there's no problem with explaining it."

Makoto Haramura, who was looking at Ikki Kurogane, burst out laughing.

"Besides, you've helped me so much, and it's just a matter of sword skills."

Makoto Haramura is absolutely grateful to Ikki Kurogane.

Although the two interact as friends, Kurogane Ikki is actually more of a mentor to Haramura Makoto.

"Well, let me think about it."

"I'm talking about the phenomenon of multidimensional distortion. Do you understand what that means?"

Without directly stating it, Makoto Haramura presented them with a problem in reality.

Hmm, that's a redundant question.

It's confirmed, this is a group of academic underachievers.

Seeing the three of them deep in thought without a word, Makoto Haramura could confirm his suspicions.

"Never mind, I'll explain it."

With a soft sigh, Makoto Haramura casually picked up a slowly falling leaf, placed it in his palm, and gestured for the others to look over.

"We who control spatial abilities generally refer to space as two-dimensional, three-dimensional, four-dimensional, five-dimensional, etc. You are familiar with this, right?"

"Uh-huh--"

It was very basic knowledge, and all three of them nodded.

"So first, let's assume this piece of paper is a two-dimensional plane. If we cut it randomly with a knife, we can only draw a straight line, right?"

"But what if we make this piece of paper a three-dimensional entity, and then we fold it?"

As he spoke, Makoto Haramura folded the leaf in half, then folded it diagonally in the middle.

Then it was torn open.

What reappeared in Makoto Haramura's palm were three leaves.

"Therefore, no matter what kind of swordsman, no matter how strong the swordsman, it is impossible to swing three swords at the same time."

"However, if my sword can interfere with higher dimensions, like when I cut a three-dimensional knife onto a two-dimensional piece of paper, I can create three slashes of equal speed at the same time."

"This is the essence of the so-called multi-dimensional folding phenomenon."

At this point, Makoto Haramura spread out his hands, a smile playing on his lips.

"So even if this sword technique is mentioned, it's not a big deal. To imitate it, you would need to have the same sword-wielding ability and spirit armor as me."

"What terrifying swordsmanship!"

Kurogane Ikki's pupils were completely filled with excitement.

He had this feeling from the beginning, but after Makoto Haramura explained it, he fully understood the principle.

Even after understanding the principle, he still made this assessment.

"Makoto, when I figure out a way to break through this sword technique head-on, please let me try."

"of course can."

Chapter 079 Stella, Nosebleed

Time flies, but for the student knights of the Po Jun Academy, it is an incredibly fulfilling time.

After all, the selection competition was in full swing, with several exciting battles taking place almost every day.

Now, as the selection competition goes on for longer and longer, fewer and fewer people are left, and the enthusiasm within the academy is soaring like never before.

Those who remain are all formidable fighters with an undefeated record.

Moreover, since everyone has already fought at least ten battles, they have basically used up all their backup plans, so the battles now will be more intense and will better showcase their skills.

Of course.

Makoto Haramura and others are now undefeated in twelve matches, making them top contenders for the Seven Star Sword Dance Festival team.

Normally, at such a crucial moment, it would be the right thing to do to let Makoto Haramura focus on preparing for the match.

but……

"The air here is really nice."

The car slowly came to a stop in the parking lot. As the window rolled down, Stella leaned out and shouted cheerfully.

"So, what exactly is that woman doing?"

"In a situation like this, instead of sending those two experienced students from the student council, they sent the two of us."

Makoto Haramura's annoyed voice came from inside the car, and with a 'click' the car door opened, he stepped out with his long legs.

"Oh dear, the chairman already told me that it's just a routine investigation."

"It can definitely be used for picnics, camping, or just going out for fun."

As soon as she opened the car door, Stella shouted excitedly, just like a child looking forward to a spring outing.

"That's not wrong."

"If giants really existed, I would go and catch a giant dragon for you and bleed it to awaken your powers."

Makoto Haramura shrugged and went to the trunk of his car, which was actually named Shinomiya Kurono, and took out some ingredients and cookware that he had just bought that morning.

It's very simple. Just like I said before, he came here with a mission.

Assigned by Shinguji Kurono.

Go investigate the mythical giants that might appear on this mountain in front of you.

Well, impossible.

Although there are special individuals in this world, mythical creatures have never appeared.

Many scientists speculate that the mythical beasts and other special creatures that appear in mythology were probably wild animals that accidentally awakened the ability to wield weapons. These creatures were seen by ancient humans, who then made connections and recorded them in this way.

Therefore, things like Titans and Frost Giants should not exist in the first place.

Natural dragons are also non-existent.

Therefore, such an event is probably something caused by the special abilities of the blade-wielders, or it's simply that the ignorant masses are seeing things.

"Well……"

Stella glared angrily at Makoto Haramura.

"Knowing that I'm already troubled by this, you still brought it up, Makoto."

Stella's recent ability development hasn't been going so smoothly.

Previously, my strength and abilities were increasing every day, but now the rate of increase has become much smaller.

It's like a feeling, isn't it?

Hmm, it feels like being stuck in a bottleneck period in a martial arts novel.

A refreshing mountain breeze blew in my face.

The sound of flowing water echoed in my ears.

Faced with such a refreshing and pleasant environment, even the troubles that were bothering Stella seemed to be blown away by the surroundings, and her worries seemed to have been purified.

"No need to rush, Stella. You just need an opportunity to break through your bottleneck."

"Besides, aren't you more looking forward to the picnic than this?"

“It’s different from when we’re in the dorm. We won’t be staying here overnight this time. Preparing things like starting a fire would be a waste of time.”

This mountain is not completely uninhabited.

People often come here for picnics, so there are some simple picnic equipment and campsites here, which is why the legend of giants spread here.

"That's true. So what do we need to do now? I have absolutely no idea."

Stella is indeed very down-to-earth.

But no matter what, she was a princess of a country, and she had been working hard to train herself. How could she have the leisure to go on a picnic?

"a lot."

"It's like gathering firewood, fetching water, and picking wild mushrooms."

"I brought a chicken and some dried vegetables. Let me make you chicken stew with mushrooms over a wood-fired stove."

Upon hearing this, even Makoto Haramura began to miss the taste of chicken stew with mushrooms and became slightly impatient.

"Then let's get started."

"Oh, let's go pick mushrooms!"

Stella happily raised her little hand and excitedly pulled Haramura Makoto towards the woods.

"Idiot, this is a search and investigation, not a game."

Stella was truly being led by that immense force, Makoto Haramura helplessly corrected her.

"Oh, I see. It's about picking mushrooms while conducting a search and investigation."

As Stella spoke, she took out her student handbook from her small handbag.

"Look, I've already turned on the recording function."

……

It truly lives up to its reputation as a prehistoric forest.

The naturally growing fungi inside are incredibly diverse, and because of recent rumors that few people dare to come here, Makoto Haramura's basket was almost full after only a kilometer or two of walking.

"Stella!"

"what happened?"

Makoto Haramura's shout made Stella, who was skipping and jumping like a butterfly, stop in her tracks.

"Look at your skirt."

"The clothes you're wearing today don't seem to suit this environment very well."

As he walked towards Stella, Makoto Haramura pointed to the hem of Stella's skirt.

"what?"

Stella tilted her head and looked in the direction that Makoto Haramura was pointing.

Today she was wearing a white dress with a hem that reached her knees. However, the outermost layer of the dress, which was the most important part of the garment, was now covered with many green thorns, and some parts of it had even been punctured.

"It's rare to wear such beautiful clothes, so it's best not to ruin them."

"Is it beautiful?!"

A faint blush immediately appeared on Stella's fair face.

"Since you've put it that way, Makoto, then let's do it that way."

The raging magic transformed into scorching heat, and the surprising magical manipulation eliminated impurities other than clothing.

The green spiky ball that was originally hanging on Stella turned to ashes and fell to the ground.

"But it's not very convenient to walk back like this."

Stella lifted her skirt with both hands, a look of worry appearing in her eyes.

But Makoto Haramura stood in front of her with his back to her and slowly squatted down.

"Hey, Makoto, are you going to carry me?"

"What, you don't need it?"

Haramura Makoto asked deliberately, with a wicked grin.
