"In fact, this sword was once a human..."

When Yale started to speak, the chief’s face changed.

"Really? Did you transform this person yourself? Who taught you?"

The chief seemed excited when he heard Yale’s words.

Initially, Yale feared that the chief would be angry, but the chief’s reaction was completely opposite to Yale’s fears.

"Well, I guess you can say I did it myself. She was about to die with her soul dispersed, and it was the only way I had to save her."

Yale couldn’t speak about Alter Yale openly, but both could still be considered the same person, so it wasn’t wrong if Yale said that he did it himself.

"I see. No wonder this sword loves you so much. Usually, a human converted into a sword would harbor endless hate for the one who did it unless some special processes were applied, but in a situation like that I can see how she is still grateful to you."

Hearing the chief’s words, Yale felt that the chief had a lot of knowledge about the topic, which gave Yale hopes that he knew a method to revert it.

"You still haven’t replied to my second question."

The chief seemed very interested in who taught Yale how to do that, but Yale didn’t know who taught Alter Yale.

"I don’t know. It was something I did out of desperation, and I don’t remember how I did it. No one taught me."

The chief looked shocked.

"Very interesting! To think that a mere human would execute the weaponizing curse without being taught. Do you know how many million years I spent developing it? Too many to count them! However, you managed to do it so perfectly with just a bit of inspiration..."

In fact, Alter Yale had learned from that chief when he was looking for ways to punish his enemies. The weaponizing curse wasn’t something that the chief taught to others, not even within the tribe, but Alter Yale still managed to convince him.

However, although only the chief in front of Yale could execute the weaponizing curse in that universe, there were more experts capable of doing the same in other universes.

"I came here with hopes to restore this sword to her human self. The soul inside the sword is already completely healed, so there shouldn’t be any problem as long as I know the method."

Yale really hoped that the chief knew about the method to restore Lar.

"I am sorry. It isn’t that I don’t want to help you, but I developed this as a curse, a method to punish others, so I never tried to develop a method to undo it."

Yale was disappointed when he heard those words, but the words of the chief made sense.

Seeing Yale’s disappointment, the chief spoke again.

"I don’t know a method to return her to be a human, but I know a method that would at least make her look like one. However, I must ask you a question first."

Yale’s eyes sparkled when he heard that there was another method. As long as Lar returned to be herself, if she was a human or some other species wasn’t something that bothered Yale since he never cared about it.

"Please, ask.

The chief’s face turned serious.

"What is your relationship with the human form of this sword? Your lover? Your wife?"

When Yale heard that question, he quickly shook his head.

"No, nothing like that. She did me a favor that I will never be able to repay, which made that we had quite an ambiguous relationship, but she is one of my best friends or like a sister. I know that she had romantic feelings towards me, but I never saw her like that."

No matter how pitiful he considered that Lar was, Yale couldn’t force himself to love her like a lover.

"I see, then, this method may work well for you."

If Yale said that Lar and himself had a romantic relationship, the chief would have never said the other method, although it would be a matter of time for Yale to discover it himself.

"What method?"

Yale was really impatient to hear about it.

"I called it a method, but in the case of this sword, it is just a matter of time. Do you know that weapons can develop consciousness and even incarnate in human form? This sword of yours is already at the seventh level immortal level, but it already seems to be starting to develop consciousness. Usually, it is extremely difficult to reach this state before becoming an eighth level immortal. Some weapons even needed to be ninth level immortals, while others would never be able to do it."

Yale knew something about the matter, but he didn’t feel that the consciousness of a weapon and other living beings were the same.

"Have you seen any weapon that has transformed into human form?"

When Yale heard the question, he quickly shook his head.

"Liar."

Yale didn’t expect that reaction from the chief.

"You have seen them, it is just that you can’t tell that they are weapons, so you aren’t conscious about it."

Yale was shocked and started to guess if someone of that tribe was a weapon that had taken human form.

"As you should be thinking, there are weapons that have taken human form in this village. In fact, except you, everyone in this village is a weapon that has taken human form. We are the Weapon Spirit Tribe."

Yale was just expecting to be some, not that literally, everyone in the tribe was a weapon including the chief in front of him.

"I know you are surprised, but this is the truth. We are all weapons without master that grouped together to live. We are all high-leveled weapons, so a lot of greedy people want to kidnap us, erase our consciousness, and use us as tools. We hated that kind of people, so each time we found one, we transform them into weapons. Doesn’t they want a powerful weapon, then it is better if they themselves are the weapon."

Yale didn’t feel any pity for those greedy fellows who ended up transformed into weapons.

"It is difficult to tell that we are weapons instead than humans, so it is difficult for others to notice, but we aren’t the same. Our bodies are made out of pure energy, so although we have physical bodies, we aren’t really made of flesh and blood. Of course, we can’t have children. That is why we are so good at smithing."

A weapon that had taken human form wouldn’t be too different as a friend or as a sister, but definitely, it wouldn’t be the same as a wife.

"I need to tell you that if a human turned into a weapon manages to take human form, although the looks would probably be very similar, the weapon spirit won’t have any memories of her time as a human. At the same time, if you restored her to a human afterward, it wouldn’t be different from killing the weapon spirit."

If Lar managed to take human form, she would be like Lar, but she wouldn’t really be her. It would be similar to reincarnating without memories but without a chance to recover them.

"This sword has already started to develop a spirit, and it will probably finish in a few days since you entered this village. Being in contact with so many weapon spirits will hasten the process, but if you hadn’t triggered it before, it wouldn’t have even started."

A weapon could only develop spirit if the owner had been treating it with a lot of care and that kind of people was always welcome to the Weapon Spirit Tribe.

After all, all of them had once a master who treated them with care, so they liked the people who treated their weapons well. However, they completely despised those who just wanted a tool and would consider that a spirit was a nuisance.

"I understand. I guess that being a weapon spirit will at least give her some freedom. She may not remember anything, but as long as she is happy, I won’t complain."

Yale couldn’t stop the process nor had a method to restore Lar, so that was the only choice he could make.

"I doubt that she will want freedom. We, weapon spirits, love being used by our masters. There is nothing that made us happier. If it weren’t because we all lost our masters, and we won’t accept someone else, we wouldn’t be living here together."

Although making weapons was like having children for them, they never kept the weapons for themselves. They give them to people that seemed worth of wielding them or leave the things to fate.

If the weapon managed to awake a spirit someday and take human form, the spirit wouldn’t be willing to separate from the master, so the tribe never looked for them unless they lost their master and needed shelter.

"I see, it seems that we thought differently about it, but as I said if she is happy that enough. If after awakening, she wants me to use her in battle, I will use her as much as she wants."

Yale couldn’t fulfill Lar’s previous dream about having a romance with him but using her sword form in battle was a different thing.
