Chapter 230 Arts Training
although milo, and honestly, most of his peers had absolutely no future in the practice of battle arts, that did not mean that syklon could not teach them anything, to properly craft battle arts and attain her incredible understanding of the arts, she also had to simply be good at learning, adapting and creating battle styles.
somehow, despite being so small and frail, she could box milo and wrestle him into submission with one hand, while standing in equilibrium on one foot, absolutely ludicrous, both to experience and to watch, but no one was laughing, all had gotten the premium experience at least once before, her hands were too small to properly grasp them, but they just did. your journey continues on empire
this was the result of reaching the pinnacle of the arts, to the point that an unknown number of them were constantly active even if syklon was sleeping, ranging from strength enhancements to automated reactions, it would not be a stretch to believe that all of the arts she could be seen using were actually always active, their requirements already fulfilled, or being fulfilled at all times.
"this, is what one would call a master of one, i gave everything up for the arts, closing paths forever is what one that thanspires to reach a certain peak should not hesitate to do, i used to be lined up to be a great magic caster as well, but i gave that up in favour of the arts..."
she twisted the boy's arm into a painful hold, his face turning red as he fought back the instinct to scream, and that seemed to be just about the only thing he could do, the rest of his body seemingly immobilised even though it was not caught in a hold too.
"...i also gave up the system and all of its boons too, meaning that i rejected the stats, choosing to stay with my frail body as all that i had, but i also rejected the handy weapon skills that allow one to understand your arms and styles better by just practising like always, that was probably the biggest thing i gave up, considering what i wanted to accomplish" finally letting go of milo.
"for you, you shouldn't pay attention to more convoluted and finer techniques outside of learning how to counter them, your main point is pure strength, you have not gained much xp at all, so it means that you have the striking force of a bear naturally, don't bother spinning around and looking graceful, punch your foes in the mouth and kick them in the knees" syklon signalled for ohrn to pass over a manual, written by herself, specifically for milo's eyes to read.
she ended up telling similar things to most of the other students, those that had no talents in the arts needed to use their strong points and focus on it, if one was nimbler than average, stronger, more instinctive, also for those that even after having gone through the repeated physical trainings of rosemary, had not been stellar in things that required muscles, she simply directed them to learn to hide themselves better as they cast spells from afar.
they had heard such things from their magic teacher as well, but of course, her teachings were more related to mana and all.
she would simply guide him and assist in honing his pure sword skills, afterwards, he would go spar with ohrn, who might be lesser than his lady, but was certainly no rookie and he also had the advantage of having lots of experience due to his age.
lastly, also talented not in the broadest of terms but still tremendously so.
"antieeld, how are you today?"
"i am fine, thanks for asking" the young commandant also wielded a sabre, but considering her position, it should not be drenched with blood unless things went haywire.
which was why, in accordance with her talent as a leader, her talent with the arts relied on commanding and empowering troops, inspiring them.
"say, miss syklon... would you happen to know a particular battle art? one that requires the user to swing a halberd adorned with a banner to summon foggy soldiers? i have been meaning to ask for a while..."
"that's the art used by the plague knight, right?" syklon feinted being deep in thoughts, instead debating whether she should be honest or not.
to lie for the girl's good, or tell the truth, for the girl's good?
to lie and keep things as they are, or tell the truth, renewing hope?
lady syklon was not the best at this sort of things.
