Seirei Tsukai no Blade Dance:Volume1 Chapter1

Chapter 1: You are my spirit contractor

Part 1

In a quiet forest where the rays of the sun were shedding between the leaves' gaps.

"Paa--"

Suddenly, a sound of water resounded in the air like that.

Kamito, he--opened his mouth wide and stood there.

A girl, in front of his eyes was a fully naked girl.

Not only was she cute, but she was also a very beautiful female student. Her eyes were big and red like rubies, her cherry-red lips were bright moist, her dazzling white flesh was as silky as milk, and on the surface of the water, her beautiful legs were slender and fine. Also, what caught his eyes more than anything was--

Her twining red burning hair, which looked like as sumptuous as handcrafted glass.

Of course, she was naked. Naked.

"......"

Kamito felt cold sweat in his back.

Not good.

It's really not good is she's naked.

......I should really go away quickly. Though he gave that rational advice to himself, his body wouldn't move. Actually, he continued staring, since a scene like this is lacking so much reality in it.

And at that time, the girl--

Her moist and beautiful eyes blinked, and showed herself in a completely naked posture to the intruder.

Tick.

The water drops fell from the young girl's bangs. The sound of water immediately waked up Kamito counsciousness.

"Ah-that......"

Kamito coughed once, and removed his glance from the naked girl, who was standing there foolishly, and quietly moved out.

"How can I say it......it looks like an accident, right, to us this case is an unfortunate accident......"

At that time, Kamito made two errors that would cost him his life. First, was that the best choice was: Take advantage of the fact that the girl was standing there, and run away from the trouble immediately.

And the other error was--

"Even though it was an accident, I still looked at you in that situation, sorry, pardon me."

Until here it was still fine, but the last part......

"Though, don't worry, no matter how you say it, I'm still a healthy boy, so I don't have that kind of interest. I......"

Looking at the young girl's small chest--

"I have no interest towards a kid's body."

Looks like he stepped on a gigantic landmine.

"......"

The air suddenly froze and solidified.

The girl--remained silent, and lift her twining red hair in a movement. Her shoulders were slightly shaking. But the reason isn't because of the cold in the air, but only that Kamito didn't pay attention to that point.

"Sixteen--"

"Eh?"

The girl's delicate lips were mumbling something, and Kamito lift his eyebrows.

"I-I-I AM ALREADY SIXTEEN-YEARS OLD!!!"

At the intant when she screamed that out, the young girl's red hair hoisted.

"Haa!?"

As Kamito opened his eyes wide in surprise--

"Sixteen!? You're lying, right! How can you have such an incomplete chest--"

He quickly covered his mouth. Though it was already too late.

"......Unforgivable."

The young girl said that in a low, cold voice.

"D-Definitively unforgivable......you, youyou, you peeping demon, pervert, lewd animal!"

"How can I understand what the heck is lewd animal......"

Kamito said that in a low voice.

"Hn?"

......At that time, he noted that the forest's trees were making a low whisper-like rustle.

(Is that the wind? No, that's--)

......The Crimson Flame Guardian, The Keeper of the Furnace which does not sleep!

......Just now a pear amount of blood, rapidly setting up to join underneath me!

Coming from the young girl's cute lips, a Yang summoning spirit language. In that instant, a blast of air accompanied by a noise, a scourging flame whip appeared in the hand of the girl.

(.....a Spirit Errand!)

Kamito shouted from his mind.

Spirit Errand --- an existence from another dimensional layer from this world “The Elemental Spiritual World”. There’s the miserable devil spirit’s actual binding being driven by the elder sister woman's thing. The Spirit Errand employs various type spirit characteristic, capable to exert power freely. It seems that somehow, the girl before his eye has a lonely ties with the flame type characteristic spirit. The thing itself is the girl’s spirit errand, so it’s not something to be surprised. Anyhow, that's the place where the country's excellent spirit errand band gathered together.

(.....Even it’s you, there's no way, you can use a spirit demon equipment)

When summoned from Element Spiritual World into this place, the miserable demon spirit formed a shape of a bear widely separated into two.

First, the original form bear appears one there is no mass and as a lump of divine spiritual energy of indefinite shape. As for this being which was invoked with just the power of the spirit simply, in a case where it uses the spirit’s magic and the like is used as the storage medium.

Second, A portion of the spirit’s existence was being changed into something of a refined form. As for a form which is difficult to control that requires a large amount of divine spiritual might, which being said not only among the people who holds a spiritual errand. However, this girl doesn’t summon simply the spirit, but summoned it as a highly optimized spirit demon equipment.

(.... the case, is? – am I now, in a life and death situation?)

Being hit by his own thought, Kamito pull out his cheek.

In that place where the flame whip touches the water surface, a gush of white steam rises from it.

“you, you, you have some guts..... “

The girl moaned with her trembling voice. While having a red face, from anger, or is it because of her sense of shyness.

“rea.., really you have some good nerves, to peek, while I’m taking my bath.....”

“wai, wait, it’s a misunderstanding! Let me speak first”

Kamito shakes his head hastily.

“I will not listen with your excuses. You will be turned into ashes, You Pervert!”

The flame whip ignites furiously, from the wielder’s hand while speaking in the pond’s water surface.

“Oh..!?”

Kamito threw his body for mercy in that very instant.

In a hair’s breadth. The flame whip brushed its way overhead.

The idle red residue remaining from the trees which were cut off is a complete joke. The cross section of the tree trunk’s remaining is unexpectedly clean, without any mark of being burned. So, in order to eaves attacking speed, the flame doesn’t need to spread itself in its surrounding.

Kamito’s hair in his forehead is fluttering down in his mouth while the back of his neck became chilly from the sweats in its surface.

(.....um, are you joking? Dying like this, I?)

Zing, biyutsu – a lightning speed crimson dancing slash inside the vast forest. While paying attention with his surrounding carefully, trying to forfeit from the battle by hiding himself, Kamito hurriedly rushed out.

“you wild beast, stay put and let me hit you!“

“ nonsense, I’m not a Pervert!“

Kamito cried out when the whip swing downward in his feet, a violent spark scatter. From the ground, the whip immediately spring up toward the direction of the forest woods which was ruthlessly severed. It was said that it’s a blessing in disguise, the girl - Clare aim is less accurate. After all, one side of her hand is unfortunately hiding her chest from being revealed, while the most important part was being concealed in the pond in a bend down position. However, considering the ignorance of her position, but how she handles her whip, she was originally talented in using it.

“this, despite being a pervert, please obediently turn into a charcoal!“

“ as I am saying I’m not a pervert! say“

Kamito begin to turn around and face the opposite direction – “in a manner that will” draw attention.

“Hey, are you sure good in hiding it. Between the gaps of your finger, you can’t hide it delicately”

“......eh?”

Scowling in question. Clare’s facial expression frozen. And-

“Kyaaaaaaaaaah!”

Deeply in red like a wonderful cute girlfriend screaming in its peak - holding firmly the chest with her both hand.

“ah, idiot!”

Kamito involuntarily exclaimed.

Losing control the grip of the flame whip from her hand, the tree behind the girl, has been cut off. Slowly, the huge tree trunks come falling down at an angle. But, Clare doesn’t notice it with her eyes close because of shyness, looking in her chest while embracing it.

(Kusooo--)

In that instant, Kamito kicked the ground. Running with his whole strength towards the pond, then jumps digging into Clare’s shoulder.

“Wha!?”

Clair’s red pupil dilates widely. In the other hand, Kamito aggressively pressed her down inside the water. Between the events, where Clare’s hand was exposed in the water, a gush of steam rises, and the flame whip disappears. Immediately after, the big tree fell down, and the wood collapse.

Duuuun!

A deafening sound which break the ear. A magnificent large water column rises.

Absorbing the burning flame, a heavy rain descended neatly into the pond water with good acceleration.

..... with some few sand later.

“um......“

With such a seductive rising voice, Clare slowly opened her eyes. Shock facial expression, her eyes blinked in wonder. Kamito lying above Clare, while staring in her eyes. If someone pushes his back lightly, as a man his lips will likely touch, due to their sensitive close subject separation. The nape where the twining red hair is stuck. The wet cherry red colored lips. The brittle like doll perfect feature, before his eyes. One scowl ends it all, with an unintentional blush, hurriedly shake it off.

“......um are you okay? are you hurt..”

Single mindedly, Clare nods. Somehow in a situation yet to be understood. Kimito sighed, then stands up into the hot weather.

Funyuu.

Hands under the water, He touched something soft.

“hwaaah!”

(What is it? A mud?--)

Funyu. Munyu.

“hm, ya, hwaaa”

From her moist lips a shallow sweet voice. Exploring Clare’s body soaked in the water, something pink bounced out in the water.

“um ..this is?”

From here onwards, Kimito finally arrived in a certain male theory. Something......awfully terrible childish conclusion.

(No, let’s hope, calm down, maybe --- its different?)

It can’t be. There’s no such thing. While letting a flow of cold sweat, he deliberately tries to deny such expectation.

“Wh..wha.. wha..whattt .... are..you...do..ing”

Clare’s lip tremble from shaking involuntarily. Blushing face. Her eyes are in tears.

Apparently, it’s probably not.....a lump of mud which he picked up.

“You, PERVERT----!”

“Guwah!”

Considered being hit hard by a knee kick in the stomach, Kimito collapse into the pond's water.

Gugugugugu....!

Wobbling heat energy behind her starts to accumulate, immediately Clare stood up. In that time, the flame whip which is the incarnation of flame spirit was again grasped in her hand. The water in the pond with one scowl starting to boil and bubbles begins to show here and there.

“No..No, it’s a misunderstanding! Wait, I’m really gonna die.....”

“sh.. shut up pervert, you will die here!”

Together with a loud deafening sound which breaks the ear, Kamito’s body whirled highly into the air.

Part 2

“.....un”

Few minutes later. Kamito starts to recover his consciousness, before his eyes, a tree within the forest unfold.

Happening trying to rise---

Suddenly, he notices something which is coiled around his neck.

A leather black whip for torturing. (What is this thing…), while trying to remove it,

“Finally woke up, You Peeping Tom Pervert”

The thing in his neck tightens.

“Gweh!? release me....”

Kamito cough then look upward-

Scarlet hair young girl – Clare, swing his one hand in her hips. Keeping her slim eyebrow arc raised, her sharp gaze look down to Kamito.

This time with no sense of protection, the girl is wearing her adorable uniform. The pattern of black line within the pure white, (Areishia Spirit Academy)’s uniform.

The ribbon tie which decorates the chest origin. Instead of a button, a talisman was sewn on it. Two smooth stockings sticking out brilliantly, in her slender beautiful legs. The tiny ribbon hanging her left and right blazing crimson hair. The so called twin tail named hair style. Looking in her still wet hair, it seems that he hasn’t lost consciousness that much period of time.

Clare while tightens the neck of Kamito, her small chest bent a little.

“Well, be grateful. I’m going easy and didn’t kill you”

“I lied. I will definitely kill you!”

“Why am I saying this? Because, I am seriously wants you to turn into ashes”

..... Saying it in a terrible calm manner.

Incidentally, about the obliterated coal, a new fire which was extinguished will result into a soft charcoal.

“The coal which was gained from you will be greedily put into forgiveness. I will give you one last time to respond”

“Yeah, I’m a fair noble person, I’ll certainly listen and calmly evaluate. You are more than an average pervert, in a highly pervert way”

“My evaluation that you are a pervert after all will not change. I’m asking you high pervert, are you seriously more than an average pervert?”

“Wh.. Why.....did you try to help, ee..even, touch, my breast!”

Exerting more effort thinking about it, Clare suddenly shy face turns to red.

(What?)

A particular female respond –

Kamito half consider it.

.....Our guy, by any chance a dense person?

“My, our gloomy princess, has a hobby of perverted having fun of whipping a man”

Teasing nonchalantly -

“What!? Wr, Wro, Wrong, I’m not such thing!”

In a sure quick immediately respond. (Kaatsu)Shake one's head up and her ears are in bright red in irritation.

“He.. Hey, do you really like to whip that badly?”

“.....m! Wha... What.. are...you..sayi..ng?”

Twirling turning around eyes, a steam puff out in young Clare’s shining pair head. That time creating confusion to a certain degree.

(Oh, as I expected....)

Kimito in his heart smile bitterly.

(This girl, is really easy to read)

Perhaps, this girl is not that special. After all, at Areishia Spirit Academy, they are gathering sister female seat scholars based with spirit errand. The element spiritual world’s spirit can only communicate solely with a pure woman. Even among them which can summon a lonesome spirit, is holding a divine spiritual strength in a certain degree, Spirit Errand’s connection blood strengthens through marriage of many generations, as a lineage of pure noble young woman.

To maintained, the female’s purity of mind and body, since childhood, they are kept away from males in a boundary as a strict education. The so called Spirit Errand designated teaching area. However, the entire young women in this institute, which are not accustomed to man, are overly boxed into an elder sister ideal.

Knowing the girl’s unexpectedly weak spot, Kamito in that time is maliciously suffering in her weapon. In a knee standing position, looking up to Clare’s bright red face-

“um, sometime ago, as am I saying to you deliberately ”

“......Wha, What are you, Pervert!”

“This angle, I can see your panty”

“fuwah!”

Tears begun to float in her crimson eye, Clare hastily pressed down her both hand in her skirt.

“Did you see?”

“With a glance, you are unexpectedly quite daring. It has the same color of your hair”

“......the, the fuck, It’s not red, It’s White, White!”

“So, it’s white”

“......ha!?”

Being hit by a sudden realization, Clare bit her lips-

“u, uuuuuuuuuh~”

..... She let out a huge cry.

With the sudden reaction, Kamito panicked. “What a slut unladylike person, confessing the color of her own panty” and, still teasing her more....true summer came for the poor.

The chance given by Clare’s temper, the whip was fired unwinding his neck,

“My bad, that was quite fun. sorry”

Stands up, and then hold the girl’s head, which his hand place above there. Clare in that time stops crying, and then her face shows up.

“I have seen your naked body while bathing, then your breast.... which I badly touched as well. But I will not move. Please believe me”

“Wha, What.....”

The truthfulness in Kamito’s eye, Clare in her eyes, is really genuine.

“....You, What is this. If you are not a pervert, then why are you here?”

Naturally she doubted. This forest is under the jurisdiction of Areishia Spirit Academy, known as “Spirit Forest”. There’s a principle that an elder sister can never meet any man inside the academy, in regards with her feelings.

In that place, illicit sexual relationship is against the moral code, which is strictly not to be violated by anyone.

“I was, called here from Gureia”

“Gureia....., by the academy director!?”

Clare became more doubtful in that given situation. Indeed, it’s not something, not to be doubt about.

“I’m not lying. Look, here’s the evidence”

Kimito shrug his shoulder, inside his burned coat’s pocket, he took out a one sheet withered letter. The letter’s writings are from the renowned academy director. Also, 5 big pure spirits appears in a form which symbolize as a rank badge seal pressed down on it.

“Is....that, the country’s obi number one rank badge seal!?”

Clare in her dismay, a shallow voice let out in her lips. A number one rank badge seal is an amnesty badge seal produced through a special method of sealing a spirit. The country’s obi distributed the rank badge seal to those who are worthy to be called inside, by the best highest position; the reply on it is in absolute secrecy and should never tell to anyone.

In a natural manner, fixing her gaze in his groin, the article on it is not some female thing that can use a spirit errand, in a glance that’s the genuine thing in his hip.

“.....It seems the real thing. But, why would the academy director called a man here?”

“Well, that Old woman is my well known Gureia’s guardian, I’m really confused about it”

“That.. that Old woman!?”

Just like that, Clare’s face draws closer.

The Twilight Witch – in her town Gureia, a spirit soldier which was sighted as an Elder Sister having an enraged personality. It was said that within the Orudeshia country obi, she was popular having a dance that rival the most powerful dance ever known. One of the twelve elite general which retired from the group of the most powerful spirit elder soldier, It was noted that a dozen of years later, gain a reputation as a legendary witch which was being feared and revered with respect by other.

(The truth is, lately, I’m having a nightmare about that person....)

In that time, when the letter writing has been tucked away. Kimito’s shoulder shrug.

“With a little fortune from Gureia, I have came all the way here. but, the academy ground is very large, so I have lost my way”

Areishia Spirit Academy ground is incredibly very vast. After all, the Academy City covers all the mountain range, also, spreading farther more into the Spirit forest owning the whole perimeter of it.

“Then, you were misled dumbfounded by the Spirit Forest, Is that it?”

“.....Yes, that’s it”

Clare puffs into laughter, while Kamito gently nodded.

In the peaceful large ground of the sunny spirit forest exists, the elemental spiritual world’s "Portal" which connects and threatens this world with stray soul. Mostly of the spirit, has no interest in the humankind, but they harmlessly loves to play pranks by deliberately misleading travelers into the puzzled forest. In any event a person was misled by the spirit into the forest; one should look for the academy road which will guide them out from the wilderness.

“Anyway, I’m really glad that I had met a person, in these difficult and horrible Spirit Forest. from here onward, how should I get in the academy?”

“Hey.....for your own information, I shall tell you, that there’s a two hours of walk from here towards the Academy”

“What, that far!?”

To avoid being misled by the spirit of the forest, one should walk away in such a pattern. The academy students here are females, and they are close in this vicinity, so they have thought a way around it.

(.....hmm? why are these people, bathing in this kind of place?)

From this plain forest, a sudden question arises. Certainly today is a very hot day, to come and take a bath and rest here, incidentally for a male to set foot inside the academy in such places. In any case, this girl is not the only girl in the academy, except that she was the one put into shame.

Being asked, Clare dug her hands into her wet twin tail hair trying to comb it,

“I was here for the spirit fissure’s membrane. Brushing aside it, the spring water here, has the highest holy quality are there. And do you know that spirits like a woman which has a pure mind and body?”

“Spirit’s Fissure?”

He uttered a word then, a crack in his left hand’s leather gloves, Zukyu – a throbbing pain. Kimito face grimace, from the burning sharp pain.

“Going away from this place, there is an ancient sacred system inscribe in a certain paulownia tree. Rumors state that there is a fierce and powerful “Spirit Sealing” which holds it in place, since the foundation of the academy. While no one can, a princess miko successfully place it. Likely, a highly powerful spirit can be found there”

Spirit Sealing – is a medium that holds the demon spirit from the elemental spiritual world.

Some of the Spirits which are sealed in the arms and the equipment are powerful spirit errand of ancient time. Mostly some of them are the one’s being feared by man that brings forth disaster in ancient society, such as, a demon god, rabbit god and etc.

Of course, a human spirit errand is not one of those things, which it deals with. Due, to the huge fear by the people of ancient times in the spirit errand, they sealed them into the arms and equipment by lamenting them two times.

“You, there’s no way you can seal a spirit?”

“It seems that you are saying something?”

“Stop, it’s too dangerous”

“Hmm, rest assured. It’s not that I’m well accustomed with the spirit errand, nor I’m not that well aware of the danger of it, but, you know, I really want a strong spirit errand”

Clare muttered, bitten her tightly close lips.

In a serious facial expression, Kimito involuntarily shuts his own mouth.

“But, you, how about the pear amount of flame spirit sometime ago? That thing quite a powerful spirit, did you not raise that guy properly?”

A Flame Spirit, as the Spirit’s nature which is not that unusual. But, in a certain degree the spirit is a summoned “Spirit Demon Equipment” spirit errand, that is not quite a handful inside the country obi. Besides, there’s a limit of quantity of pure spirit errand that a person can holds, it’s not the case that it’s not possible, but – spirit interference can deteriorate the balance of divine energy flow in the body, unless that someone has an innate talent to control it.

“ TheCurtain is Rising, the important performance of my life. But-”

“I want power”- and, Clare calmly raised her neck.

“I have only one goal. And that is, to have a strong spirit”
