Chapter 20 - Seance

"I'm not that good at seances either,..."

Saying that, my sister Nene brought out a sword. It's a two-handed longsword. You can tell just by looking at it that it is very heavy. It seems that Nene returned to the house to bring this sword.

"This sword belonged to our ancestors." "I didn't know we had one of these."

If you look closely, you can certainly see that it has been used for a long time. However, it seems to have been properly cared for, and the blade is still sharp.

"Seance is the art of summoning spirits. But it is more effective to have a particular relic to call up a specific spirit." "I see." "In our case, this two-handed sword is the relic."

What kind of relic do I need if I want to do a demon seance?

Crocell and Orobas are also listening to Nene's story nearby. Both of them are nodding their heads in agreement, but I wonder if they really understand what Nene is saying. However, Nene can't see them because they are both in a spirit state.

"This sword belonged to one of our ancestors, Darganna Eslund. It is said that he used this sword in the battles he fought."

I had no idea that our ancestors were like that. I suddenly remembered what my father had told me before about the Eslund family having a long history.

"This time, it is the spirit of Darganna Eslund that I will be releasing. In seances, the compatibility between the practitioner and the spirit is also important, but I don't think we have to worry about that since we are related by blood."

As she said this, Nene flipped through the pages of the grimoire. It must be a grimoire about seances.

"It's difficult to control a seance. If you take in all of the spirit, there's a risk of it taking over your body, and if you take in only a little, it's not very effective."

While saying this, Nene drew a magic circle on the paper, relying on the grimoire. I'm not sure if she is used to it, but she's very good at it. Then she placed her two-handed sword on the magic circle and closed her eyes. "I command thee in the name of Nene. I summon thee, and thou shalt dwell in my body quickly. Fill me with your knowledge and power. Thou shalt fulfill all my wishes faithfully within the limits of thy authority. Come--Darganna Eslund."

After finishing the chant, Nene opened her eyes and said

"It worked."

At first glance, I couldn't understand how she had succeeded. But there was a hint of a fighting spirit in Nene's eyes.

"What has changed?" "Well, I'm feeling more powerful and I have some sword fighting skills in my head that I never learned."

When Nene said so, she easily lifted her sword with one hand, which was difficult to hold even with two hands. She then swung her sword. She did not just swing it, but wielded it with an awareness of the sword kata. Even the untrained eye could tell from the movement of her feet and the movement of her gaze that she was a first-rate swordswoman.

"Well, it's like this." "Ooooh!"

I couldn't help but applaud. Crocell and Orobas applauded beside me.

" What do you think, big brother? Do you think you can do it?" "I'll give it a try."

I replied.
