CCM 02 – Yo, this FailSkill Suddenly Went Off Though

---

[Farewell, father, mother…]

.

My mumbling has not received any reply from anyone. 

.

The mansion of the Makuba family.

.

As the home of the only family directly serving the royal family, it’s exterior matches up to its residents reputation. I personally think it is comparable to the residences of grand nobles. It’s the place where I spent my childhood and faced all my hardships. It’s the place where I met wonderful servants as well.

.

However, not even one of them has come to see me off.

.

I am once again reminded of the bitterness of reality.

.

I’m nothing more than a spoiled son of the sword saint.

Now that even my parents have thrown me out, there’s no one else anymore who will give a damn to me.

.

–The sword saint’s son is a failskill–

.

The news has spread out in a blink of an eye. Everyone’s gazes just stings.

.

To avoid the reputation of the whole house from falling down, I decided to leave the house. 

.

I don’t have anywhere to go.

But anywhere is fine as long as it doesn’t have something similar to my own house’s persecution. That alone is enough for me.

.

I’ll try checking out the nearby town for the time being. It will take quite a reasonable distance but there are no other problems aside from that. I’ll just get tormented if I stay in the house anyway and if by some chance that I die then let it be.

.

I step into the wide grasslands and made my way through while keeping these thoughts in my mind.

.

Then.

.

[Gurururuururu]

.

Monsters– I am now surrounded by a pack of red wolves. It’s a monster clad with red furs that boast its speed. What’s more is that it spews a small fireball from its mouth making fighting against it more difficult for people who are not accustomed to battles.

.

But.

.

[Haaaaaaaaaa!!]

.

Makuba Swordsmanship

–Red Leaves Flash.

.

From the time I drew my sword until I put it back in its sheath, I already had the red wolves heads chopped. 

.

Not a single one of them survived.

.

A complete annihilation.

.

I might have manifested a failskill but my swordsmanship is on to the level of someone who is expected to become a sword saint. Monsters at this level will not be able to put a fight against me.

.

But it’s all now just a waste.

Ah, I can’t stop my tears from falling.

I showed talents in swordsmanship and dedicated my everything into it… And look what I am now.

.

[But… It is strange.]

.

I am on the middle of a highway.

This place has several posts and lights in equal intervals that are used to turn away monsters.

.

I am not sure about strong monsters but it is not something a red wolf could get through.

.

[Iyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!]

.

Then, A scream has reached my ears all of a sudden.

.

It is a female’s voice.

And it is rather familiar.

.

If my instincts are correct then this voice belongs to–

.

My body is already moving and running on its own before I notice.

Perhaps this is as expected from all the lessons imprinted into my body as the successor of the Makuba family.

.

The Sword Saint family directly serves the royal family and has strong ties with each other.

That’s why we have to rush onto the royal family in times of their crisis no matter what it takes–

.

In the midst of the dense trees, as I expected, it is certainly her.

.

Reimira Li Arceus

This kingdom’s Arceus Royal family’s second princess.

.

And as usual, there’s not even a single escort by her side.

.

Damn it, this ojou-sama…!

.

She’s currently against a monster called black grizzly.

It’s a monster with its whole body covered in black fur and is known for its ferociousness. It is completely different from the red wolves earlier. Even against people who are used on holding swords, beating one black grizzly will require a few.

.

Obviously, it’s not an opponent I can beat alone.

.

Defeating one might be pretty simple for my father who’s a sword saint but it is impossible for me who doesn’t even know what is the skill I manifested into.

.

[Princess Reimira! This way!!]

.

But even so I still shouted her name.

Maybe somewhere deep inside my heart, hope still lingers to live like as their swordsman.

.

[A-Arios…..!?]

.

It seems the princess still remembers me. Her eyes widened as she calls my name.

.

[He-help me… I- I can’t move my feet…!]

[Ku….!]

.

This is bad.

The black grizzly’s pressure might have gotten into her nerves and got her feet frozen from fear.

.

[Guoooooooooo!!!]

.

The black grizzly is completely lock on Reimira as it raises its gigantic paw. I may cut off its arm but it would be after the fact that Reimira already lost her life.

.

[Damn it…!]

.

I can feel the blood draining from my face as I leap towards Reimira but at that moment.

.

—————————-

The accumulated victories have increased the skill’s level.

The list of cheat codes that can be used is now updated.

.

★Fire Attribute Magic – All Use

—————————-

.

[Ha?]

.

I can’t help but gasp.

.

Fire Attribute Magic – All Use?

What does it mean? I haven’t used any magic ever since I was born though? 

.

But there’s no turning back now that this is all that I can count on. 

.

Remember the great mage that was fighting with father in the past.

Back then, the magic that the great mage used is…

.

[Ultimate Magic – Prominence Burst]

.

DOGOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON!!

.

The atmosphere trembles everytime huge explosions assault the black grizzly. I can feel myself that the ground is shaking.

.

[Eh? Just what the heck is this.]

[Ugaaaaaaaaaa!!]

.

The black grizzly loudly screams contrary to my own dumbfounded voice.

.

By the time the smoke has subsided from the resulting explosions, the black grizzly lies on to the ground without any signs of getting up.
