Last Hero
Chapter 30: The Next Level

I tried to stabilize my breathing after finishing my first practice, the entire stone in this place had been destroyed.

Before long Rider appeared while clapping.

"Good work, now you've learned the stone-crushing punch."

"Where did that name come from?"

"Of course I named it."

I think his name sounds ordinary.

"I think your training is over now, let's go, my wife made us all good food."

"Ah yes."

We sat like a family.

"You want to add more Okta?"

"No, I'm full."

"True, you ate very little, my husband did you train him too hard until his appetite was gone."

"I guess no, normal people do eat it that way."

Both of them glanced towards Rider.

"Why are you guys glaring at me, I'm telling you the truth that eating too much of it doesn't mean it's bad, I'm glad to see you guys getting excited about eating."

"Really."

I just laughed doubtfully.

"True, tomorrow before practice... Okta come with me. I'll meet you with someone."

"Someone?"

"Later to know."

I wondered who I was going to meet and the next morning I knew that she was a woman who had to be treated in a place called a hospital.

"Mr Rider, you came to visit?"

"How are you doing?"

"A little better, the doctor said I just have to stay here for another month."

"Thank God."

It seemed that this woman had experienced quite a terrible thing, some of her body had to be bandaged with a white cloth.

"His name was Elina, she was a former member of the military."

"Former military?"

"Greetings."

"While he is, what's your name?"

"I'm the adventurer Okta who asked Mr. Rider's guidance to train him."

"I'd love it if you said it with passion" Rider cut.

"It's your own fault you don't remember my name."

"In short this young man will fight the angel who has made you like this."

Wait, even a top military officer like Elina ended up like this. As if reading my expression Elina explained.

"The creature is very powerful, magic and swords cannot hurt it. Moreover, he has stolen my Solomon's gate, I don't know what he's going to do in front of him."

A gate that could take out limitless monsters.

Imagining it gives me goosebumps.

"But I think you're learning from the right people."

I can see Rider's nose elongated.

"Although it is better not to imitate the nature of the unemployed master."

"I won't imitate him."

Rider dropped his shoulders limp.

From the hospital we went back to the location that I had previously used training, now the next level I will be trained using the sword.

"I'll use this twig, Okta can use your sword. Please, attack me from any direction."

"I understand."

It's a good opportunity to see how great Father Yue is. I stomped my feet forward, as I realized my body was thrown into the air and then fell hard to the ground.

What the hell just happened?

My eyes and my body could not act.

"Try again."

"Good."

Several times I tried the results would remain the same. Rider extended his hand to help me stand up.

"I don't want to say it but the sword is definitely not very suitable for you, you can use it occasionally but in the real fight between life and death you will lose."

"What's my weakness?"

"You don't have sword intent, every sword artist has it but you don't, you could say it's some kind of match against the sword itself."

"Then what should I do?"

"I've guessed that because I asked you to practice the style of stone crushing blows, I'll teach you martial arts martial arts."

To me it's a foreign word I've heard.
