『Yes. From what I’m seeing, hero-sama is unable to display your original power sufficiently.』
「Eh? Original power?」
Kouki tilted his head. Seeing that made Foltina looked puzzled instead. She wondered why he didn’t know what she was talking about and glanced at Aularodde. Aularodde, was tilting her head.
『The hero’s original power. In all the worlds, the hero will definitely possess effectiveness toward the energy that is unique to that world.』
「Possess effectiveness?」
『Haven’t you ever experienced your opponent getting weakened when fighting in the hero’s chosen ground?』
「……aa」
He suddenly recalled. Now that she mentioned it there was that ability……. The opponent that entered the light that was radiated by the holy sword would have a weak debuff applied on them.
The effect of that ability to monsters from the holy precinct only felt like measurement error, and it wasn’t effective at all against opponent from other worlds, so he had forgotten about that ability without noticing.
『Hero-sama can interfere and disperse the unique energies of all the worlds through the god’s weapon. That is none other than the real ability of the hero that enable them to become savior across the worlds.』
「Is, that so……」
Most likely, it wasn’t anything like the absolute advantage that Aularodde displayed against the apparitions, but only at the level of “being usable in any kind of world” and “had noticeable effect”.
Of course, for that ability to be definitely effective against the unique energy of any world would already be enough to place it as an extraordinary ability.
『If my brethren who is residing in that holy sword is awakened then you would surely be able to use that ability sufficiently. ……However, Aularodde Lea Refeat. Why hadn’t you taught him despite staying at his side? You have also transformed yourself into god sword haven’t you?』
「Eh, because, I never heard about anything like that.」
『……』
Eh, is that true!? Kouki-sama is amazing! Aularodde was making a face that seemed to say that. Perhaps it was just his imagination, but Foltina’s gaze when looking at Aularodde who was like that felt cold.
Perhaps, somehow she was starting to notice 「Ah, this brethren, she might be that kind of type……」, no doubt about it.
『Anyway, I shall give my assistance to allow hero-sama to display your true ability until my holy sword brethren is awakened. With the quintessence of my power “Blessing”, it’ll be possible to substantially increase the limit of hero-sama.』
「That’s……I’m thankful. Truly.」
An increase to his base strength, and obtaining a new trump card that he never even imagined. Kouki’s expression naturally split into a smile.
『Then, with haste』
Foltina joined her hands in front of her chest. She closed her eyes and at the same time her radiance increased, forming a sphere of light.
That sphere of light──
『Please receive it──my brethren』
「Ee?」
To draw out the hero’s power sufficiently, either a god should reside inside the hero or a god should personally transform into a divine weapon. ch468
