Chapter 850: Lone Cloud's Choice: Casting Swords into Plowshares

~5 min read 827 words

【In the game's story, regarding Yunli's words, Lone Cloud felt a moment of bewilderment: "I truly cannot imagine a fate for myself other than being a sword..."】

【Yunli looked at the Lone Cloud Sword and said, "Do you remember? You stood proudly before the swordsman's stele. People looked toward you because you carried the memory of a hero."】

【"So, at that time, you were no longer a sword, but a monument!"】

Livestream.

"Young Lady Yunli is right. If Lone Cloud was just a sword during the days of fighting and killing, then during the years it stood on the stele, in the eyes of the people of the Kalevala world, Lone Cloud was already their memory of a hero."

"That is why Mr. Paavo always referred to it as a hero's sword. Whether it was the stories passed down from ancient times or the old longsword standing quietly by the stele, what they carried and represented was a beautiful memory of a hero."

"A monument, huh? That tall stele that suppressed the nameless swordsman, and even Lone Cloud that accompanied it for years, are both memorials of the traces left behind by that nameless swordsman for the Kalevala people."

"So, the reason Yunli wants to melt down Lone Cloud is because, after what she saw earlier, she understands that Lone Cloud no longer wishes to be a sword of slaughter and wants to fulfill its wish?"

"I finally understand Yunli's plan. That really scared me just now."

"Ha, fortunately, I knew Yunli would definitely not be the same as before after apologizing."

March 7th watched the game's story and said, "In that case, this is the best result for Lone Cloud, right?"

Dan Heng nodded and said, "Indeed. If Lone Cloud, which no longer wishes to be a sword, can escape the fate of a created object, it would also be very gratified."

【In the game's story, Lone Cloud followed Yunli's prompt, recalled that period of time, and said leisurely: "... Later, I became mottled and worn. The breeze passed through the holes in the sword's body, making tones of different pitches, heading toward the distant business—it turns out I was a musical instrument at that time. I miss the time when I was a musical instrument."】

【Listening to Lone Cloud's words, Yunli gazed at Lone Cloud and smiled, "Does a created object have the right to become what it wants to be? Of course it can! I will fulfill your wish, Lone Cloud. I will forge you into another object."】

【Lone Cloud's emotions at this moment were very complex, filled with surprise, curiosity, and expectation: "... Another object?"】

【For Lone Cloud, who had always been unable to escape the fate of a created object, Yunli's words at this moment undoubtedly gave it hope for liberation.】

【Arbiter Dahao on the side was a bit anxious and said, "But this is the prize for the Wardance. If the Kalevala delegation finds out... General Huaiyan, General, please say something!"】

【Huaiyan's expression was calm; he squinted his eyes, turned to look at Yunli, and said, "Sigh, this granddaughter of mine has always been stubborn."】

【"Yunli, are you really sure you want to do this?"】

【Yunli's mood was also a bit uneasy at this moment; she looked at everyone and asked, "What... does everyone think?"】

Livestream.

"Needless to say, naturally we must fulfill Lone Cloud's wish."

"Needless to say, Lone Cloud's waiting for so many years might just be for this moment to arrive."

"But, Lone Cloud is after all the hero's sword of the Kalevala world. If it is really recast into another object, is that really okay?"

"Don't forget, besides being the hero's sword of the Kalevala world, Lone Cloud is also the sword of that nameless Xianzhou Cloud Knight. And I think if Mr. Paavo and the others knew everything, they would gladly agree."

"Mm, that's true."

"It's just that the prize for this Wardance is probably going to be ruined."

"The Xianzhou is rich in products and treasures. Although a sword is precious, it is not irreplaceable."

【In the game's story, Stelle looked at Yunli and smiled, "Why not ask Lone Cloud for its opinion?"】

【Argenti also nodded and said, "Fulfilling Lone Cloud's wish is precisely the purpose of my arrival at the Xianzhou. With Idrila above, whether it is casting swords into plowshares or something else, as long as it allows Lone Cloud to end its battle, I support it with both hands!"】

【And Lone Cloud was naturally willing; it said gratefully, "Then I leave it to you, Yunli."】

【Finally, everyone took Lone Cloud to the Artisanship Commission's Five-Blade Workshop to borrow the casting furnace.】

【Under the illumination of the furnace fire, Yunli's petite and lovely face wore a gentle smile as she quietly cast the Lone Cloud Sword into the melting furnace.】

【This was the first time Yunli had shown such an expression when melting down a Demon Sword.】 ===== CHAPTER 851 =====
