"My family lineage can't be discussed without discussing swordsmen"

This feels like a subtle hint (since she didn't mention how they were related to swordsmen, though it could be handwaved as just their magic) that her family was responsible for the downfall of the last sword saint or something along those lines, since I doubt that Seira's lineage is actually a "war criminal" like was mentioned. Getting vibes of something like "we killed your ancestors and framed him via our sword magic, which people took to be his swordsmanship" or something.

A mage defeated a sword saint, than it's considered as a stain in swordsman history. Implying that before that defeat, they were always superior to mage.

Suddenly after that defeat, every swordsman is useless against magic. That would imply the same spell power level that was used against the last sword saint is easily replicated by most mage. Enough to make most mages looked down to most swordsman. That's weird imo.

I still can't grasp this history.
But for now let's just see how they unfold more of this declination of swordsmanship.

@null-lunn please, stop with the blue text intertwined with the black text (pass it to the team if it's not you who's doing it).
For why, looking at it made me feels like I was on the onset of retinal migraine (which I tends to have and don't want anyone to have if they don't want to lay down with a migraine for 3 to 6h)
Please.

mc said magic was new in his time in the first chapter, so it can be assumed that magic was initially inferior to swordsmanship and improved over time

Maybe that first Mage victory against a swordsman was the turning point for magic. It was at that point that magic was better than swords, so it was just seen as the better weapon. It can also be that the defeat took such a reputation blow against swordsmanship that it was seen as a laughingstock, and therefore, caused the decline of sword masters, and swordsmanship in general.

Honestly, it seems like the history behind the decline of swordsmanship isn't too important to the story, as more the redemption of swordsmanship.

How you'll handle these swords, you say?
Well, free swords are free swords. What are you expecting?
