Okay so it has a core, and that core is in the arm he cut off. So when the sword of failure says 'cutting it wont work' it's talking out it's figurative arse because they clearly need to cut it a whole lot more.
Wait, so hero boy got summoned from an actual swords-and-sorcery world while in the middle of a fight? I'd be a bit pissed at that. That put his party in danger.
