Let’s start with the immediate situation after Ichiko was sent away.
(Ichiko POV for the whole chapter)
“Haa. I never dreamed that penguins would strike me…”
It’s been three days since I was whisked away to this location. As I drew near the coast, I was confronted with penguin-shaped monsters that are larger than the average penguin, with metalized arms that are as acute as swords, accompanied by their carcasses in great numbers.
“Gyagya!” “Gaga!”
As for why they attacked me, it is not apparent. However, when they spotted me, they abruptly lunged at me. It may be that they have been under orders to assault any living creature that comes in sight of them.
Nevertheless,
“I have no option but to eliminate them now that they have discovered me in this state. Come, ≪Sword of the Formless King・Weak≫.”
As I gather more metals from the ground around me and from the penguin’s arm (Let’s call them Edge Penguin), I produce a sword.
That sword is a conventional Western sword in shape. While it is referred to as a longsword with no decorations, the inner substance is a type of magical sword with sharpness unmatched by regular swords.
“‘Gaaaaaah!’”
“Ha!”
“‘Piyot!?…Ga…’”
In fact, several Edge Penguins seized the opportunity while I was generating the weapon, and charged at me, but I lightly side-swiped them all in half with my newly generated sword.
As a consequence of my metamorphosis into a half Demon King, ≪Sword of the Formless King・Weak≫ has taken the place of ≪Short-range Teleportation≫. It’s possible that it’s branded “weak” because I’m not a pure Demon King, but rather a half Demon King, therefore it’s been weakened to fit the criteria.
I can convert any metal in my proximity into a sword and transport myself and the blade I’m wielding to any spot within a 25-meter radius as a corollary of this ability.
“Gyagya!”
Then another one lunges at me, and I teleport my sword to that Edge Penguin’s head after dodging its assault.
“Pyoooooo!”
Then the sword appears to bisect the Edge Penguin’s head, rendering it dead. This is the nightmarish aspect of this skill. Although the exact conditions are unclear, if another object is present at the teleportation location, it seems to sever through it.
“Phew.”
The sword is then generated in my hand utilizing the material from the teleported sword. It appears that I can teleport the sword away from me and back into my hand in this manner.
While I would say that Kurokiri’s foggy body is quite a cheat, I think that my skill is also a cheat. This skill is still classified as “weak” despite its faculty.
“‘Gaaaaahh!!’” “‘Gyagyagya!!!’”
Since several of their companions were slain at the same time, the nearby Edge Penguins are fueling a commotion. But they don’t appear to have any intention of escaping.
“Now then, let me verify the extent of the half-Demon King’s power.”
Producing a second sword from the carcass of the Edge Penguin I had just defeated, I wield it in my left hand and assume two swords style.
And so a one-sided battle has initiated in which I wreak havoc on monsters whose official names I don’t even have a clue about.
Carcasses, carcasses, and carcasses. As far as I could distinguish, the whole vicinity is awash with the carcasses of Edge Penguins.
I quit counting after 50, but the number may have exceeded 1,000. In any case, if a single spot is 1, the number of dead bodies is about 7.
Well, it would be a hassle if I am attacked again, so shall I ponder on the future while moving on?
Now, while I was fighting, I recognized that the specifications of my body were as atypical as its status. Even the out-of-dungeon compensation seems to function only to the same extent as for ordinary kin. And it would be swifter to show specific statuses, right? Here is what it looks like:
Name: Ichiko (Blade Princess of the Unsettled Sword)
Class: Half Demon King

≪Sword of the Formless King・Weak≫, ≪Fog Cloak・Thin≫, ≪Monster Creation・Low Rank≫, ≪Dagger Proficiency Ⅰ≫, ≪Decapitation≫, ≪Keen Edge≫, ≪Long Edge≫, ≪The Lord Will Exercise His Power in My Path≫, ≪Enchantment Mist≫, ≪The Lord Transcends Reason for My Sake≫
Title
≪The King of the Black Fog’s Kin≫, ≪Assassin of the White Fog≫, ≪Demon Slayer≫, ≪Fog King’s Representative≫, ≪Favored Princess of the Fog King≫, ≪Blade Princess of the Unsettled Sword≫, ≪The One Who Encountered the God of Calamity≫, ≪Decapitated Princess≫ etc.
Depending on how one perceives it, it may be lower in status than the Demon King, but I believe it is far more stable than the Demon King because I can normally wander outside the dungeon.
Nonetheless, both my name and race have been changed spectacularly. “Blade Princess of the Unsettled Sword” is my current race and official name, but I wonder what this means. Sword and blade make sense given my unique skills, but I don’t grasp the meaning of “unsettled”.
And I spot something like a building.
If my assumption is accurate, this place is quite a nuisance, so I hope there are some handy tools here…
With these thoughts in mind, I head for that building.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
