I Became a Farmer in Another World

Chapter 52: Chapter 52: The Awakening of Morz’rath

After mocking Orphesius, Ryutaro ventured deeper into the cave.

"Why does the aura here feel so hostile?" Ryutaro said.

"Of course, that’s because the Bloodflare sword is a demon sword, and that’s why the area around the cave is affected by it," the shovel replied.

"So, it’s a demon sword? Does that mean it’s like Grace?" Ryutaro asked.

"Not at all. Grace is just a regular demon race, whereas that sword belongs to the divine demon race," the shovel explained.

"Huh? If it’s from the divine demon race, how can Valen control it? He can’t possibly be relying on his regeneration alone, can he?" Ryutaro asked.

"Well, he didn’t mention anything beyond that," the shovel replied.

"I see," Ryutaro said.

During their journey towards the sealed room where the Bloodflare sword was kept, Ryutaro couldn’t help but ask a question.

"By the way, I’m still curious why I was able to enter this cave so easily. Even Orphesius was thrown back after trying to force his way in," Ryutaro said.

"Finally, you’re asking about that. The reason you can enter is because of me," the shovel said.

"What do you mean?" Ryutaro asked.

"I was made by Kevin using one of the bodies from the divine demon race that died long ago," the shovel explained.

"Huh? Is that true, father?" Ryutaro asked.

"Yes, that’s true. That day, when I was exploring to find your mother, I accidentally came across the corpse of a divine demon lying in the forest. Feeling it wasn’t just any ordinary body, I took one of its limbs and created this shovel," Ryutaro’s father explained within his mind.

"I see. No wonder I could get into this cave easily," Ryutaro said.

Soon after their conversation, Ryutaro arrived at the room where the Bloodflare sword was sealed.

However, just before reaching the door, Ryutaro felt an overwhelmingly powerful aura that almost made him faint.

"What is this? Why is this aura so strong?" Ryutaro asked.

Before Ryutaro could pass out, his father’s voice resonated in his mind.

"This is a soul-stabilizing magic called Animus Pacis. With this, your soul and mind will be safe from this aura," his father explained.

"So, you cast this spell?" Ryutaro asked.

"Yes, but this magic only lasts for an hour, so you need to hurry and enter before its effect fades," his father urged.

"Alright," Ryutaro said.

After hearing his father’s explanation, Ryutaro entered the room.

Once inside, he saw Charlotte standing there holding a sword.

"Charlotte, you’re here at last!" Ryutaro exclaimed.

"Ryutaro, is that you? You finally made it!" Charlotte replied.

"Yes, I’m here. Now, let’s go before it’s too late," Ryutaro said as he moved to approach her.

However, both the shovel and his father immediately warned him.

"Ryutaro, don’t approach her. She’s being controlled," they said in unison.

Upon hearing this, Ryutaro stepped back.

"Tch, just a little bit more," Charlotte said in frustration.

"You’re not Charlotte. Who are you?" Ryutaro demanded.

"Me? Didn’t the shovel you’re carrying know my identity?" Charlotte replied coldly.

"So, it’s you, Bloodflare? Let Charlotte go, now!" Ryutaro ordered.

"Hahaha, yes, it’s me, and you want me to release her? Don’t even think about it. I’ve found the perfect body for my revenge!" Charlotte, under Bloodflare’s control, laughed maliciously.

"Revenge? What do you mean by revenge?" Ryutaro asked.

"You don’t need to know right now. Just step aside," Charlotte, under Bloodflare’s influence, commanded.

"I won’t step aside until you leave Charlotte’s body," Ryutaro said firmly.

"Fine, if that’s what you want," Charlotte replied, still under Bloodflare’s control.

In an instant, Bloodflare, still using Charlotte’s body, lunged at Ryutaro with incredible speed.

"What?!" Ryutaro exclaimed.

Before Ryutaro could dodge, he was struck by her blow.

"Hahaha, a weak human like you trying to defeat me?" Charlotte, still under Bloodflare’s control, taunted.

Ryutaro rose from the ground and wiped the blood from his lips.

"(Wiping blood from his lips) Is that all? You’re so weak," Ryutaro said with a grin.

"Hahaha, it’s funny. A human who’s been hit by me still speaks like that," Charlotte mocked.

Once again, Bloodflare charged with incredible speed.

"Same technique again," Ryutaro muttered.

Ryutaro quickly dodged her blow, surprising Bloodflare.

"What? How is this possible?" Charlotte, still under Bloodflare’s control, exclaimed.

"Of course, it’s possible. If you’re relying on speed, I just need to predict your next move," Ryutaro said confidently.

"Predicting my move? Impossible, how could you?" Charlotte, still under Bloodflare’s influence, asked.

"Of course, it’s possible," Ryutaro replied.

"Yeah, that’s all thanks to my father," Ryutaro whispered to himself.

While Ryutaro was lost in thought, Charlotte—still under Bloodflare’s control—was gathering her strength for another attack.

"Okay, this is bad," Ryutaro muttered.

"Hahaha, your name is Ryutaro, right? It’s a shame we couldn’t meet earlier. Otherwise, I would have taken your body for myself," Charlotte, still under Bloodflare’s influence, said cruelly.

After saying this, Charlotte, now fully controlled by Bloodflare, unleashed a spell.

Bloodflare Cataclysm

As she spoke the incantation, red light gathered around her sword.

"Now, die!" Charlotte, under Bloodflare’s control, shouted.

But just as the spell was about to hit Ryutaro, the legendary shovel flew in front of him, blocking the magic.

"What? It can fly?" Ryutaro asked in shock.

His father, from within his mind, answered his question.

"This isn’t the time for jokes, son. Now, listen to the incantation I’m about to give you," his father instructed.

"Incantation? What is it, father?" Ryutaro asked.

"This is the spell to break the seal of the shovel. Quickly recite it, and the legendary shovel will release its true form," his father explained.

"Alright, I’ll recite it quickly," Ryutaro said.

Ryutaro began chanting the incantation his father had given him to break the seal on the legendary shovel.

Meanwhile, Charlotte, under Bloodflare’s control, sensed what was happening and poured more power into her magic.

"Get out of my way, worthless shovel. Don’t block me!" Charlotte, still under Bloodflare’s control, shouted.

"Do you think I’ll step aside? Dream on!" the shovel retorted.

Hearing the shovel’s words, Bloodflare grew even more furious, intensifying her power.

The shovel began to falter under the pressure and asked Ryutaro if he had finished reciting the incantation.

"Hey, are you done yet?" the shovel asked impatiently.

"Done. It’s time," Ryutaro replied.

Ryutaro shouted the incantation aloud.

"O weapon forged from the bones and rage of the Demon God...

Created by the hands of my father, the first hero.

Hear my blood’s call—its legacy, now awakened.

With my resolve as his child and my life as a guarantee...

I break this seal:

Rise, MORZ’RATH—the Last Demon God Sword!"

As soon as Ryutaro uttered the incantation, the shovel and the surrounding area trembled violently, and even outside the cave, the vibrations were felt.

Grace and the others outside the cave were startled.

"What is this? What’s causing this terrifying vibration?" Grace asked.

"I don’t know what’s happening inside there," Miyuki said.

But Rin wasn’t surprised by the tremors.

"It seems Kevin has taught his son that technique," Rin thought to himself.

Back inside the cave, as Ryutaro finished the incantation, the shovel slowly began to crack, and the sound of demonic howls echoed from within.

Shocked by the noise, Ryutaro asked his father about it.

"What is that? Why does it sound like demonic howls?" Ryutaro asked.

"Of course, that’s part of the shovel’s transformation. And the howls are because, as I told you, this shovel was made from a divine demon’s body," his father explained.

"I see," Ryutaro said.

Soon, the shovel’s form dissolved into black-red energy, which began to take the shape of a sword. freeweɓnøvel.com

Once the transformation was complete, the shovel—now the sword Morz’rath—spoke.

"Ahh, finally, after hundreds of years, my seal is broken," Morz’rath said.

After speaking, Morz’rath immediately cut through Bloodflare’s magic.

"What? How is this possible? Why do you feel like me?" Bloodflare asked.

"No, no, I’m not you. I am Morz’rath, the sword forged by the hands of the first hero, Kevin," Morz’rath explained.

Morz’rath then flew into Ryutaro’s hand.

"So this is the true form of the shovel that helped me when I first arrived in this world," Ryutaro mused.

"Of course. But remember, I’m not a shovel anymore. I am the Demon God Sword Morz’rath," Morz’rath corrected him.

"Are you going to control me like Bloodflare did with Charlotte?" Ryutaro asked.

"Of course not. I was made by your father. There’s no way I would control his child. But if someone else found me before you, I might have taken control," Morz’rath said.

"That’s pretty scary, setting things up like that," Ryutaro commented.

"Of course. I had to ensure the sword ended up in my son’s hands, or if you didn’t come, in your descendants’ hands," his father added.

"I see," Ryutaro said.

After discussing this, Ryutaro turned to face Charlotte—still under Bloodflare’s control—while gripping Morz’rath tightly.

"Are you ready, Morz’rath, for round two?" Ryutaro asked.

"Whenever you’re ready, my companion," Morz’rath replied.

Can Ryutaro and Morz’rath defeat Bloodflare and bring Charlotte back to her senses? What will be their reaction when they find out that the shovel Ryutaro was carrying has now transformed into a sword? And who is actually the target of Bloodflare’s revenge? Find the answers in Chapter 53.
