Reincarnated as a Sword (2024)

Before being reincarnated into a sword, he appeared to be a 30-year-old salaryman who enjoyed anime, manga, VR MMOs, and light novels. He had a friendly personality, enjoyed eating curry, and had some level of proficiency in cooking but had never dated before. At the start of the story, he is killed by an oblivious driver who was texting and driving. Waking in this new world, he seems to have forgotten details of how he came to be and the circumstances of how he was reincarnated.

《Details》
External Abilities
  • Magic Power Conductivity: A measure of the efficiency with which a piece of equipment can be clad in magic power Master has a conductivity of S. That means that he or his wielder can channel more than 1000 mana points into his blade in order to raise his attack stat by more than 2000 points for about 34 minutes. A sword infused with magic can harm beings with ethereal bodies.
  • Curse of the Chaos Goddess: The Black Cat Tribe was cursed by the gods to make their evolution more difficult. After Master gained the awakening skill, he used his skill sharing to make Fran evolve, ignoring the conditions set by the gods. As such, the Goddess of Chaos appeared before Master to ensure that he didn't use his abilities to cheat any more of the Black Cat Beastmen into evolution. She took away the Awakening skill from Master, made it impossible for him to regain it, and put a curse on him so that he could only have one wielder at a time. No one else will be able to equip him until his current wielder dies. Anyone who forcibly does so anyway will receive divine retribution. Those who take Master by accident will only receive a slight shock, but those who continue trying to wield him or try to abuse Master's abilities will die.
Skills
  • Self-Evolution: Enables master to evolve and grow despite being a weapon. Magical Beasts have magic stones inside of them. Master is capable of absorbing these magic stones. In doing so he gains some of the skills that the magical beast has. He can gain any skill this way regardless of the power or rarity of this skill. However the skills he gets this way start at level 1. Additionally, his Magic Stone Level increases. If it passes a certain threshold this will cause Master to level up, increasing his stats and granting him a certain amount of Self-Evolution Points. Self-Evolution points can be used to acquire new skills and level up those already owned. If a skill is absorbed that Master already owns, the level of said skill increases instead. Upon level up Durability & MP are completely restored.
  • Self-Modification: Allows Master to alter and optimize himself. It grants Master to the ability to upgrade max level skills to Superior Skills. These skills are a lot more powerful than the basic versions, but they aren't Set Skills anymore, meaning Masters user can not use them.
  • Skill Share: Enables Master to share his Set Skills with his wielder. Master has to count as equipped to the wielder in order to use this effect, but actually holding or being in physical contact with Master is not necessary.
  • Sorcery: Enables the user to feel the flow of magic around himself and in others. Likely due to this skill Master is able to invoke magic without a trace. It allows Master to imbue magic power beyond the natural limits and just barely control it. That way he can overboost magical techniques.
  • Skill Taker SP: Allows the user to steal skills from a target, meaning the user gains the skill while the target permanently loses it. The skill works from a distance. A skill that stolen this way is not a set skill and can hence only be used by the one that used Skill Taker. The skill has no visible effect and the target does not feel anything, meaning that skills can be stolen unnoticed. Different from skills acquired through Self-Evolution the stolen skills retain their levels. Different from its lesser versions, Skill Taker SP can steal any skill, regardless of its level, power or rarity, with a 100% success rate. However, the cooldown of the skill is very large. The cooldown after use is (stolen skills rarity)*(stolen skills level) days.
  • Appraisal: Displays information on what the user sees. It provides information such as name, race, level, stats and skills, as well as of skills effects, costs, strength, rarity and abnormal status conditions. Its range is at least 20m.
  • Eye of Empyrea: An upgrade to the Appraisal skill. Aside from displaying analysis it also allows the user to see through a certain obstruction, such as magical malice and allows the user to appraise someone that hides in a pocket space within a shadow. As a superior version of appraisal it also is capable of appraising things which appraisal would usually be obstructed. More generally it strengthens all skills that make use of one's eyes.
  • Appraisal Block: A Skill used to inhibit the use of Appraisal on the user. When equipped with this ability, Appraisal of the user and its equipment is also blocked. Different than other skills the effect also includes Master's wielder, despite being no Set Skill.
  • High-Speed Self-Repair: A skill that enables Master to repair himself if he has taken any damage. If he invests mana into the skill he can accelerate the repair to the point that he can nearly instantly repair himself.
  • Unsealable: A skill that prevents sealing of the user. It also prevents tactics such as using space-time magic to teleport someone into a sealed off space. Furthermore it prevents skills of the user being sealed off, which means that the effects of any techniques that would negate the activation of skill are prevented.
  • Telekinesis: Using magic, one can manipulate an object without using the body. This skill is essential to Master as it enables him to fly and essentially wield himself. The mana consumption is about 1 mana per second. It can also be used to cause explosions. Master has snapped opponents necks using this skill. He can also create a shield out of telekinetic power.
    • Telekinesis Catapult: A technique in which Master uses telekinesis to shoot himself at an opponent at high speeds. It can go to the point that he releases destructive shockwaves by moving. He can further amplify it by transforming into a streamlined form with a spiral-like a groove and using an elemental blade.
    • Telekinesis Cata-port:A technique where Master first teleports into a blind spot of an opponent and then immediately releases a telekinetic catapult from close range.
  • Telekinetic Air Ride: Making use of telekinesis and floating, Master can have someone ride on himself through the air like on a surfboard. Master fixates the rider's feet through telekinesis, making daring manoeuvres possible. He can only carry someone like this for about 15 minutes.
  • Transform: Allows Master to change into whatever shape is desired through the consumption of magical energy. Mass does not have to be conserved, meaning Master can grow larger and smaller. He can for example turn into an axe, a spear, a dagger, a shield or even an armour for Fran. It can also be used to create a control several thin strips of metal to pierce opponents over a larger distance, each of which can be covered with a magical barrier for increased durability. He can shrink down to something like an eyeball for the sake of undetected observation.
    • Shredding People From The Inside: If Master can cause a wound, he can shred the enemy from the inside using hundreds of thin metal threads he creates from himself. He can further increase the damage by cloaking his body in lightning, shocking and burning the opponents organs. This can also be used to deal increased damage, by forcing an enemy to rip out large chunks of flesh to remove Master.
    • Anti-Ship Sword: Master transforms himself into a 10 meter long giant version of himself, to make use of the brute power that comes from size.
  • Telepathy: Using magic, one can speak to another person’s mind. This bypasses language barriers, making mutual understanding is possible. With the person Master is registered to he can telepathically communicate even over long distances.
  • Sword Arts: SP: The Sword Arts skill growth rate of equipment registrants greatly increased. All status of equipment registrant +2. The effect of Sword Arts skill rises. It also grants the effect of Sword Arts Skills to the user.
  • Doppelganger Synthesis SP: This skill allows one to create multiple copies of their own body through the use of magical energy, which share the users skills. Master can summon at least 5 doppelganger of himself. The shorter the copies are to persist the more powerful they are and each copy after the first one halves each of the copies strength. The amount of time that must be elapsed before this skill can be reused is equal to the number of copies created multiplied by the activation time of each body further multiplied by 24. Master can create both doppelganger of his human form before reincarnating and of his sword form. Master can propel his doppelganger through telekinesis in order to bombard his opponent with swords.
  • Principle of Falsehood: Allows the user to see through lies spoken by others, while making one's own lies become harder to be seen through. Furthermore, the user’s lies will be easier to believe by others. Master can project the effect of the skill on Fran.
  • Life Sensing Resistance: As a living sword Master can not be tracked by detection skills that are tailored for living creatures. Only people with high leveled magic detection can sense Master.
  • Owner All Stats Up Low: All stats of the wielder are increased by 5.

Furthermore, it prevented the Master from being controlled by a weapon control skill.
  • Perfect Thought Isolation: A skill that negates mind manipulation techniques.

  • Physical Damage Nullification: A skill that passively nullifies all physical damage, including even Qi-based attacks that damage the body from the inside. It consumes mana proportional to the power of the attack it nullifies. It even nullifies the knockback of one's own attacks.
  • Anti-death: Prevents instant death, but it isn't absolute as one could instantly die again if one is bleeding or poisoned.
  • Pain Reduction: A skill that, when set, makes the user lose their sense of pain. This can be useful, but also dangerous.
  • Imperturbability: Calms the user in battle.
  • Evolution Concealment: A skill that hides that the user has evolved.
Self-Enhancement and Buffs
  • Thought Division: Allows the user to multitask. Using this multiple spells can be cast at the same time.
  • Parallel Processing: Superior version of Thought Division. It allows Master to think about 5 different things at the same time and hence cast 5 spells at once. Master has no problems with it, but using it gives Fran headaches.
  • Concurrent Consciousness: A skill which easily allows for 10 simultaneous trails of thought without breaking a sweat. Master could likely even cast several simultaneous Kanna Kamui using this skill. If Fran uses this skill she gets an headache so bad the she immediately crouches down from pain.
  • Conceal Presence / Presence Isolation: Conceals the users presence, amongst others making it so demonic beasts won't be encountered. In combination with other stealth skills one can easily skip through a crowd without anyone paying attention to oneself.
  • Latent Potential Release: Unlocks the user’s latent potential. Gains stats based on how much room the user has to grow. Since it pushes the user to its limits, this skill will drain the user’s life force throughout its activation. The user is also required to provide some sort of compensation. Compensation will vary from user to user. In Masters case his durability goes down so fast, that he can only sustain use for about 5 minutes and as compensation his magic stone points decrease by 1000 upon activation and 15 per second thereafter. It has a 24 hour cooldown. When Master first used Latent Potential Release it woke up the System Announcer from its frozen state. The System Announcer is highly talented in analysis, being able to put concrete numbers on the probabilities of survival and success of certain strategies. It is also knowledgeable about skills knowing how they would develop if upgraded. It can instantly develop complex plans based on that knowledge. Master can grant the System announcer an override, making it capable of manipulating his skills and actions. It is capable of using Master's skills with far greater skill than Master himself. It is also capable of accessing a divine realm with a library and drawing information from there. That way it was capable of granting Master the "Eye of Empyrea" skill, despite him lacking the necessary requirements. It was also able to interfere with the skill acquirement process to make Master gain better versions of skills than usual. However certain things were damaged during the first use of Latent Potential Release, making it so that the probability of the System Announcer awakening again when Latent Potential Release is used is only approximately 2%.
  • Herculean Strength: A skill that temporarily increases the users physical strength.
  • Reaction Speed Up: A skill that increases the users reaction speed.
    • Ultra-Reaction/Super Fast Reflexes/Supreme Reactions: Superior version of Reaction Speed Up. When activated that skill tremendously boosts the reactions of the user. It is the same skill that causes the reaction speed increase when Fran uses Brilliant Lightning Rush.
  • Accelerated Thought: Increases the speed with which the user can perform mental tasks.
  • Predation: Allows the user to absorb the power from the things it eats.
  • Weight Boost: A skill which allows the user to greatly increase their own weight.
  • Anti-Weight: A skill which decreases the apparent weight of a target.
  • Softening: Makes the users body soft.
  • Digestion Reinforcement: A skill that strengthens ones digestion. As such it has no use for Master.
Knowledge & Control Enhancement Skills
  • Demonic Beast Knowledge: A skill that works in tandem with appraisal. It adds a text that explains basic characteristics of a demonic beast's race, as well as information on where their weak point, their magic stone, is.
  • Blacksmithing: A skill which grants the user the knowledge and skill necessary for Blacksmithing. Master has maxed out the skill and hence is a masterful Blacksmith capable of forging high quality weapons. He can even create low grade magic swords.
  • Dismantling: A skill that provides the user with the knowledge and ability necessary to perfectly dismantle a creature into its parts, without damaging any of the parts more than absolutely necessary.
  • Cooking: A skill that teaches one how to cook and improves ones cooking ability. Due to this skill Master is one of the best chefs in the country.
  • Herbalism: Allows the user to harvest medicinal herbs. It imbues the user with the knowledge necessary to do so, like whether the herbs are useful or not.
  • Potion Creation: One or perhaps multiple skills that allow for the creation of potions. Master is capable of creating at least 10 different kinds of potions, including Mana Potions, Antidotes, and Spirit Potions.
  • Throwing: A skill that improves the throwing capabilities of the user. Accurately throwing a sword to pierce an enemy is no problem with this skill.
  • Balancing Act: Grants a bonus to both jumping and balancing.
  • Hunting: A skill that assists in hunting. More details are unknown, but as similar skills it probably grants the user the knowledge of a hunter.
  • Digging: A skill that improves one's ability to dig, whether with a proper shovel or something else, like a sword.
Miscellaneous
  • Dimensional Storage: The Item Box skill. Allows the user to store items away in a pocket dimension and take them back out again. Liquids as well as solids. Master once stored an entire swamp, with a volume of about 4,970 m3 in addition to 20 giant stone pieces each 20 meters across, while still having a gym full of space left. Within the dimensional storage time is stopped, meaning the temperature of things inside doesn't change and food doesn't go bad. Things that another person has equipped can not be taken, but once they are separated from the body they can be stored away.
  • Perfect Barrier: The fusion of Magical Barrier and Physical Barrier. Its level 1 version is as powerful as the maximum level version of the other two barriers combined. It doesn't consume more mana than either of the two original barriers would.
    • Magical Barrier: By consuming magical power, a barrier resistant to both physical and magical attacks can be created. It is specialized against magical attacks. Master can create a barrier covering someone 360° if he wraps himself around them.
    • Physical Barrier: Same as Magic Barrier, but specialized in use against physical attacks.
  • Instant Regeneration: Allows the user to use mana to regenerate itself. Fran used this skill to regrow both her arms.
  • Mana Absorption: A skill that allows the user to absorb the mana from things it comes in contact with. That means the user will not only steal mana from opponents when they receive attacks but even gain mana from magical attacks they block. Absorbing the mana from the attacks additionally weakens them, so that they cause less damage.
    • Mana Thief: The AoE variant of Mana Absorption. While this skill is set the user will passively absorb mana from all beings in its surroundings. Fran is an exception, as she is Master's wielder, and likely vice versa.
  • Life Absorption: A skill that allows the user to absorb the HP of things it comes into contact with, healing them while weakening the opponent.
    • Life Thief: The AoE variant of Life Absorption. While this skill is set the user will passively absorb HP from all beings in its surroundings. Fran is an exception, as she is Master's wielder, and likely vice versa.
  • Floating: A skill that enables the user to float. In Master's case it enables him to fly with 1/5th of the energy flying through telekinesis would use. However, different from telekinesis floating has an altitude restriction. If one goes above that the skill only slows the fall.
  • Aerial Jump: Allows the user to run through the air.
  • Phantom Body: A skill that creates an illusion that looks just like the user. It emits Magic Power similar to that of the main body, making it difficult to distinguish from the real thing. In addition, when it takes a physical attack, its internal Magic Power bursts, generating a light shock wave. Its power is low, but it’s effective as a surprise.
  • Fission Creation: Allows the user to create and control a duplicate of their body, which can imitate their original skills, abilities, and so on. In Masters' case, it isn't the body of a sword, but instead his human body from before he was reincarnated. At a low level, the skill level and stats of the body double are reduced and the skill has a time limit of 5 minutes, but at level 9 the doppelganger would be stronger than the original body.
  • Air Bullet Discharge: Strengthens the surrounding air, thus casting an air bullet. If Master uses Airflow Manipulation in conjunction with Wind Magic, repeated shots are also possible.
  • Air Compression: This can be used to compress air. Master uses it to strengthen Air Bullet Discharge and can create a wall of compressed air as a shield for the user.
  • Vibration Impact: A skill that creates vibrations which on contact can be transmitted to the opponent, destroying them from the inside. When a strike imbued with Vibration Impact is blocked with a sword the transmitted vibration can make the opponent's hand go numb, making them drop their weapon.
  • Vibration Fang: Allows the user to increase the sharpness of their fangs, or in the Master's case his blade, through ultra-high vibrations.
  • Vibration Bullet Discharge: A combination of Vibration Impact and Air Bullet Discharge. It allows the effects of Vibration Impact to be used on a distance.
  • Decaying Fang: A skill that makes the target rot on contact. It can for example melt a metal lock.
  • Coercion, Intimidation, and Domination: Skills which together can release a powerful wave of bloodlust, which can strike fear in those it is targeted at.
  • Panic: Causes the abnormal mental state of "Panic" in those who are subject to its user’s sight.
  • Mana Emission: Allows the user to emit magical energy. The user can use it for both offense and defense by either firing it off like a bullet or by spreading it around like a barrier.
  • Magic Thread Weaving: A skill that allows the user to produce durable and extremely thin magic threads.
  • Atmospheric Circulation Control / Airflow Manipulation: Makes the user able to manipulate air movement.
  • Earth Control: A skill that allows the user to move earth and stones through magic.
  • Summon Kin: Summons creatures to help the user. Master can summon various types of wolf-type magic beasts using this skill. Using this skill Master summoned Urushi and by christening him made Urushi his permanent familiar. As long as Urushi is around Master can not summon another kin using this skill, as Urushi's "Capacity" fills up Master's entire "Vessel".
  • Evil Skills: Master has some evil skills, but neither he nor Fran can use them. That is due to them requiring a strong grudge, so if Master uses them his soul would ascend to nirvana instead. Fran would just enter a trance-like state when trying to use to skills.
  • Evil Spirit: A synthetic skill that combines the effects of Flight, Magical Emission, Grudge Conversion, Light Magic Weakness, Recovery Magic Weakness and Greater Purification Magic Weakness. Master has decided to be careful about equipping this skill and has hence never done it.
