33. Harvest festival banquet, Witnessing Ei's Sword for the First time

A large banquet takes place on a wide clearing that is filled with people at the present, celebrating a bountiful harvest that they experienced for the first time.

The children of various races are eating and playing happily together while the adults are drinking while sharing happy stories to one another, and the elderly are having big smiles on their faces as they observe their children and grandchildren for they are fortunate to be able to live in this realm before their time has come and relieved for the fact that the next generation will no longer experience the hardships that they went through living in the Wastelands. Their descendants will only remember that hardship through history classes and their teachers will always remind them to be grateful to their Almighty Shogun for Eternity, but that's the stuff for the future.

Each representative of all Races are conveying their gratitude to Ei who is sitting on a platform along with Tomoe, Mio and Ema as the Raiden Shogun herself accepts with a nod and tells them to keep up the good work.

Tomoe and Mio were invited by others to a Drinking and Eating contest as they accept the challenge especially Mio who's enjoying eating food left and right.

When they returned they noticed only Ema is at the platform, " Where is Master?" asked Tomoe as Mio looks around while licking the sauce on her lips. Ema replies politely " Shogun-sama is at the back taking a stroll beside the lake Tomoe-sama."

Tomoe nods and left to go to where Ei is with Mio following behind her, then after a while they finally found her standing silently while looking straight ahead.

" Both of you, never once witness me wielding a sword." Ei spoke, aware of their presence behind her.

Tomoe replies " Yes we haven't Master, I only saw you wielding a bow or a naginata."

Mio asks " Why is it Mistress?"

" Because most of the time when I draw my sword, I go for the kill."

" I thought my understanding of Eternity was correct, then a friend of mine corrected me and resulted of me achieving Enlightenment and Ascended to the higher level. Unfortunately I can't show you both the full powered version, your level of comprehension is low and will result on your mind overloading or worse death."

This made the two shiver in fear but Mio asks " But what about that day when you brought your Vessel back to Earth?"

" I covered you both with my divine power that time, but it only works to a certain extent. That's why I will only show you both using magic power to fuel my sword technique."

A tremendous amount of mana came spilling out of Ei in the form of purple lightning, making them shiver once again as Tomoe noticed that the amount of mana coming out of Ei can easily rival the Goddess' power.

And a small eye-shaped portal opened on the chest area of Ei as a handle of a sword comes out and her right hand grabs it and draws it out as it unleashed a slash that sliced apart the space itself before turning back to normal.

Both of them were sure if that low-powered version of Ei's technique is used against them they will die for sure.

After a while Tomoe's eyes were shining bright as she saw a Tachi in her Master's hand. Then Ei returned it back in a portal, as she turned towards the two and says " As I said, I will only draw it either I have a need for something or going for the kill."
