Strange! Shouldn't the cursed spirit be that woman blacksmith who sacrificed herself tor create this sword! Or, the male blacksmiths vengeful spirit which created a ego! Where this lustful unorthodox master popout from!

That story is talking about how the first cursed swords were made and doses two swords are different from this one, and are way stronger in demonic energy than this one.
So the general knowledge is that Cursed swords can be made if the wielder dies with a huge grudge against the living, which is why their spirit is bound to the sword. However, even that is not certain, because if that were true, then there would have been plenty of Cursed swords around; however, there are only five of them, and our MC now has two, and one of the four great evils has one. So it only remains the first two crafted Cursed swords, we don't know who has them
That woman was the wielder of that sword. Now, we don't know why she died with a huge grudge that made her spirit bound to the sword, that we will learn later.

@Daniel Davies 5 in murim, and murim is a small part of the empire so there could be more
@KDY13 Yeah, if I had to guess, a sword can be made by a blacksmith who has a grudge, but that likely only opens up a space for grudges to enter, like giving a sword a gem slot in a game. For this situation, the sword was made through sacrifice, but also with grudges for pushing the blacksmith's wife to sacrifice herself to craft the twin blades. That could've evened out the positive and negative energies, but the way the sword ended up being used is what created the cursed sword we have.
@Red_August Yeah, it could be true and maybe even this cursed sword is not one of the five but just one of the many cursed swords out there, because the five, like the twins cursed swords have an almost recognisable story by everyone. This cursed sword didn't seem like a recognise cursed swords to most and even it name was not something everyone knows. Like the demon sword is known by most, and the twin blades and the sword that one own by one of the five great evils.
