The Failed Swordsman Who Became the Strongest After Spamming the 100 Million Years Button-Chapter 423 - Country of Sakura, Cherin and the Seven Holy Swords [End]
423. Country of Sakura, Cherin and the Seven Holy Swords [End]
After the black suits of Fox Finance left, we faced Bacchus-san’s grave once again.
(It’s truly magnificent.) 𝒇𝔯e𝚎𝘄𝑒𝑏𝙣𝑜𝚟𝗲𝑙.c𝘰𝚖
In the vicinity of the large tombstone carved with a flurry of falling sakura petals, stood the long sword that Bacchus-san swung during his lifetime, his only good haori, and the local sake of Cherin in a barrel.
A magnificent grave that suited Bacchus-san’s hearty temperament.
「Grandfather, we have all come to visit you.」
Rose smiled softly, and spoke gently.
We offered flowers, liquor, side dishes, and other items in front of the grave and said our prayers to the soul of the deceased.
「Bacchus-san… Thank you so much for saving my life. The week I spent with you is an irreplaceable treasure to me.」I bowed in front of the grave.
「Old man, I am grateful to you for protecting my dear student. A lot of things have happened between us… but all of those seem like good memories now. Let’s drink together again someday.」Leia-sensei said, smiling very sadly.
「Bacchus-san, I will never forget your grace.」the president bowed down, tears in her eyes.
「Uhooooh… old man Bacchus… I’m going to get stronger…. I’m going to become the strongest swordsman in the world just like you… so… watch over me from heaven!」Lilim-senpai cried, shedding large beads of tears.
「I am grateful to you from the bottom of my heart, though… Thank you…」Ferris-senpai bowed deeply, biting her lips.
「I heard that you saved my life with the power of your soul dress, Bacchus-san. Thank you so, so much. When I can drink sake legally, let’s drink together at that time.」Ria offered her gratitude, and made a future promise.
「Grandfather… Your final Mirrored Sakura Slash was truly beautiful. From now on, I will succeed your sword as the 17th legitimate successor to the Sakura Blossom One-Sword Style.」Rose held her hand over the sakura pattern on her chest and quietly closed her eyes.
While everyone was offering a moment of silence to Bacchus-san, Rose turned towards me.
「Hey, Allen. Was my grandfather strong?」
「Yeah, he was really strong. Especially that slash – the Mirrored Sakura Slash was “the strongest slash in the world”.」
I will never forget that amazing sight that rumbled and shook the earth. That majestic and brave figure, and that powerful slash that branched into hundreds of millions.
「Fufu, is that so? I’m sure my grandfather in heaven will be happy to hear that.」Rose said, smiling happily.
She then asked–
「Shall we all come to visit my grandfather’s grave again someday? This person just loves a lively atmosphere.」
「Ah, of course!」
At the same time as I said so, everyone nodded powerfully.
(Bacchus-san. See you next year.)
In this way, we returned to the Ringuard Empire and returned to our daily lives.
