Starting My New Life As An Adventurer
Samurai training begin! #2
The third training day, it's now around nine and we've been training in this meadow since sunrise
...
"Alright Hikaru, do it again. This time seriously." Yuki carefully looked at my movements.
"1..2..,." I did various slash movements and did several sets.
This 3rd day I am still in the period of introduction to every movement in the sword technique. Not only is it a way of slashing, I also learned the techniques of fending off and dodging in today.
(Days 4-7)
Yuki gave me a book containing samurai techniques, Kramas in holding katanas, caring for katanas and others. I studied this book at home and continued to do the exercises as usual in the morning until evening.
"48.49.50.... Yeahh. How's Yuki-san?"
"Hikaru's good work, your movements are getting smoother and your slashes are getting stronger. This one Week practice does show a clear difference."
"Ya Yuki-san, I also feel that my body is getting more understanding of her movements after one week of training."
"You've also learned the ways of a samurai outside of combat. It's faster than I anticipated."
"Yes, I read that book every night. I don't want to waste time." I answered him with pride.
During the past week my activities have changed greatly. Usually from morning to evening I do nothing. Now I can do the exercises I like and study at night. I feel like I've been using all my time well. This feeling of satisfaction is honestly, not too bad. In this second life I'll at least I'll try to make the life I want.
"It's not too dark yet, but since your development is so fast I think we can go home now. You want?" Yuki-san looked at the current hour estimate
Around 5pm, the sky was still bright and I was not tired.
" Hmm, another set! Yuki-san, please watch me do this set. After that let's go home."
"Well, you have a great spirit. Well, I'll do it with you too."
Wind slash. As usual each swing of his sword created a wave of wind that split in the direction he was pointing, whereas I although my slash was getting stronger and my movement was improving I still had not mastered this skill.
1..2.3.4.. we do a set of fifty of these slashes together.
"Yuki-san, how did it feel when I first mastered this skill?" I asked him while still making a move.
"Oh I remember that, I won't forget. The first time I mastered this skill I felt the wind whirling around my blade. Honestly speaking, unlike your theory of 'creating' this wind feels more like the wind pressure is coming on its own. Oh yes, it may sound strange but when I first mastered this skill I heard a faint whisper even though I did not hear what the whisper was. Everyone who mastered this skill had also felt it the first time. They don't know either. We warriors and adventurers call it the 'training fairy whispers'. This elf also whispered that you mastered some other skill, not just this skill." Yuki answered me while doing a slash move.
26.27.28.
....
Every move I make I see a difference to what he does. Of course, the difference is very far. He was a professional samurai, and each of his slashes had great power and great speed. But I was more curious about the wind that whirled its blades in each of its movements. Does it really have to be that strong in order to master this skill? Then I'm sure it'll take years for me to be as strong as him.
Before I had asked iris how the right way to learn this kamaitachi skill, unfortunately she could not answer it. But what if I change the question to make it easier?
"Hey Iris, how do you create the wind?" I called him while doing my moves.
"Jawab, you must first have the skill of creation to be able to create an object. But there is no special sexy skill like wind creation. When you first master the skill of creation you can create 5 basic elements (fire, water, wind, soil, soil,lightning) and each time this skill increases the amount that can be created is getting bigger and the type that can be created is getting more complicated like creating iron or even creating poison for higher levels. Of course with much greater mana consumption and a longer creation process."
37.38.39... We keep doing our moves with regular movements.
"Yes creation skill, maybe I should have that skill first to master this wind slash skill." I muttered in my mind.
"Jawab, creation skill and kamaitachi skill have no relationship at all. You don't have to master creation skills to master kamaitachi" Iris replied to my murmur firmly.
"Well, if not how can I master Kamaitachi anyway." I'm getting confused.
"I can't answer that at my current level."
48.49.50... We completed a set of our moves. The 7th day of practice ended with our slash set and the confusion that was on me.
"Good work Hikaru, let's clean up our gear. Let's go home." Yuki put in her katana.
"Okay Yuki-san" I also kept the katana Yuki-san that I was wearing.
We arrange the goods and lift them after everything has been arranged we lift them home.
(On the way home)
"System, you get the training bonus as follows."
MP: +5
Stamina: +7
Instinct: +5
" Yes! Got again. I only got a bonus of +1 skill points from the 3rd day practice and could not what from the 4th, 5th and 6th day practice. This time the increase was also good."
"You also managed to master a new passive skill."
Samurai I: every sword you are using increases its sharpness by 10%.
Lung I: your lungs can work 10% beyond the maximum limit.
"In closing, you also get a bonus of +1 skill points."
"Yeah new skill, I think it's my practice too. Pretty, good."
I smiled as I walked towards the house.
"Oh yes iris, is there an interesting skill I can exchange for the point I now have?"
"based on your nature and likes that I learned for now does not exist." Iris answered.
"That's it, okay I'll leave it to you. Let me know if anything is interesting. Is that all you want to say?"
"Yes, then the report is over." Iris ended her report.
....
(We got home).
"Kiara, our grandfather is home!" I said hello from outside.
"Wah hikaru, Yuki san welcome. How's your training going?"
Kiara who was pouring tea to grandfather greeted us from the living room.
"Hihi, it's fun, brother! Yuki-sna said that my development is very fast so we can go home quickly today." I replied with a happy expression.
"Good work Hikaru, keep practicing diligently ya." Kiara happily stroked my head.
"Good Kiara nee-san!" I answered him with passion.
"I'll prepare dinner for all of us, please wait a minute." Kiara left the living room towards the kitchen.
"I'll help you too!" I followed Kiara immediately.
"Hey Hikaru, take a shower first. Your body stinks, my food will be bad." Grandpa taunted me on his Sofanya chair.
"That's right Hikaru, you better take a shower first. You must be tired right" Kiara also said the same thing.
"Alright if Kiara nee-san says so." I went to the bathroom.
....
Now there was only grandfather and Yuki in the living room.
"Sit down Yuki, you don't have to be so polite." Grandpa spoke while drinking his tea
"Alright Rondo-ji" Yuki immediately sat on the sofa opposite grandfather.
"How was Hikaru's training?"
"As Hikaru already said, his development is very fast in this exercise. He has met the target of learning two weeks in a week. I think it's very scary...
(Grandfather interrupted Yuki's words)
"That's not what I wanted to ask. What do you think he is?" Grandfather asked with a serious face.
"He is very talented and enthusiastic, maybe his sword skills are on par with a 13-year-old. He'll be a strong man." He answered with certainty.
"I was relieved, I thought he would have trouble practicing the sword because it might be a trauma when we fought yesterday."
"Rondo-ji doesn't have to worry about me training him."
"Hahahaha, please teach him more Yuki." Grandpa laughed and drank his tea.
"Without being asked to do it, Rondo-ji will."
The two of them were seen smiling with relief from each other and just chatting small until the tea they both had run out.
