[Sword Saint], the passive Trait Kuro received from his second Trial.
Not only did it provide him with better mastery and growth with sword-type weapons, but it also granted his body the ability to automatically adjust midway through an attack to avoid unnecessary movement, allowing him to react to an entire situation at once, and made him more familiar with sword-type weapons.
With a Trait like this, it would be a shocker if Lillian ever won against the man with only swords.
'That's the sort of Trait you'd get when you clear a Tier 4 Trial, though...'
Just like her, Kuro had cleared a Tier 4 Trial as well, except that—unlike her—he did it while he was still a 1st Tier mage.
Granted, he did do it with Mizuki, so he did have the backing of the Kirisaya family, but still... Having access to a Trial that high in rank was still rare, nonetheless.
'The resources these types of families have are no joke...'
"Lillian."
