The Newbie Is Too Strong's
162. Asario and Her Shame

[POV Asary]

In the third round, I intend to surprise the boy with my flagship skill ‘transdimensional freedom’ in order to shrink his guts so that it is easier for me to round him in the next rounds.

Well, although surely he has watched me use this skill in the final round of professional e-sport vrmmorpg Indonesia and also in the world stage, but surely it will be different from just watching it by feeling it directly in the arena.

That's how I decided to use my skills. When the cue of the third round match began, I saw the boy running confidently before me without realizing I had activated my cross-dimensional slashing skill ready to ambush him from behind.

But what is this? I could momentarily feel the boy's gaze distorted as if I could feel my epic skill right before it would hit him.

However, the boy was eventually hit by my attack and the gameover in the arena.

So was it just a mere hallucination that I saw the boy even though I could briefly see into my ultimate attack that has the speed of attack only a few milliseconds?

Unfortunately, it turns out that it is not just my hallucination. The boy could actually see it.

When we came out back from the game, the damn brat was unceasingly asking enthusiastically, “Wah, Senior is amazing! How could Senior use such a skill so quickly? Moreover, Senior could move him through the dimension in a curved manner. Teach me yes, Senior. I beg.”

That's how the damn boy said with a plain look like a cute pet.

‘Hmm. You asked as if a lowly brat like you could use such an incredible ultimate skill!’ My name is in my heart.

Apparently, the boy still thinks that I don't know the trick yet. It was all he said with the intention of making me off guard and just playing me. And in his heart, he blasphemed me so much that he would never go beyond it.

Alright, if you get all the way to seek advice from this great Senior, I will generously give it to you. But I'm sure a lowly boy like you might understand that there's no chance that you'll ever be able to use the same skill no matter how long you practice.

“The key to a quick slash, is in the motion of his sword which must also be fast. Flexibility of your wrist joint is the key.”

“Hmm. If Senior said that, the weight of the sword and dagger at first is not the same. A heavy sword, its weight point was much more upward, while a dagger had a heavy point closer to its hilt. So, if it should be synchronized with the rapid rotation motion of the wrist…. Perhaps the ideal movement is like this.”

I saw the boy muttering something while moving his hand as if he was holding something abstract. No, his madness is none of my business.

But he suddenly again asked me, “But Senior, to move the wrist joint quickly, exactly how? What is the ideal angle of movement? What is the ratio of the speed of all and the speed of its motion against the direction of rotation by looking at it from the position of the arm bending motion?”

That damn kid the question is so troublesome. Since I couldn't give an accurate answer with the physics numbers, I even practiced as if holding an abstract sword in my hand, showing how I usually slashed with my sword.

“Maybe like this.” I saw how serious the boy was with his acting to the point of looking at me so enthusiastically.

“Lantas, Senior, how can making Senior's cross-dimensional slash attack warp? Shouldn't it only be made straight?”

But why do I feel that that damn boy really understands my style? As he said, while still a noob, we can only apply the straight stance regarding it is easier to divide dimensions in a straight line.

But once we understand the concept more deeply through ceaseless training, we can ourselves understand that in a straight line, by itself it can adjust the bent pattern through static distortion from the intervening aura of the sword.

I also explained the concept to that pretentious boy. Well, even though I am one hundred percent sure that the boy will not be able to understand it at all no matter how he looks enthusiastically nodding.

And so, the fourth round began after a much longer conversation than the damned brat had after the first round before. It's not wrong anymore, it's all to drain my mental energy to let me off guard at the game.

But I'm not gonna let your strategy work, Goddamn kid. How could a great professional player like me fall for such a cheap trick.

But what is this? That damn brat is actually capable of using cross-dimensional skills as well? Was it because of my explanation just now? Nope, no. That's not possible. It was an extremely difficult skill to learn even for high-level players.

And there was no way such a great skill could be obtained from quest rewards for mid-level veteran players. [Note: It was Asario's fault, Luca had even obtained the skill through his quest while still a newbie level].

Ms. Riska Angela alone had to painstakingly find an investment so that a pro player who had luckyly obtained the quest after defeating the dimensional black dragon taught me the skill. And even I, who was already a high-level player, could only apply it perfectly after four months of training.

However, how could this brat apply that skill instantly? Even at a speed that was approaching me? Well, although the attack looks still very clumsy so it can still be easily avoided as long as we know the direction of the attack that will always come from behind.

Huh huh?

From the side?!

This it?

“Hahaha. Exactly what Senior taught. It's a bit difficult, but it's really effective. Thank you, Senior, for the knowledge.”

Thank you my***, Damn boy! Skill that has worked for 4 months, can you master it in an instant?! No, this is impossible!

Being consumed by panic, I again let my guard down and ended up losing to the damn boy.

In the fifth round, six, seven, until the tenth round, the boy showed more significant development as if he had understood my movements so well that I was even more difficult to reach him.

No, shit! He was even faster and with more varied movements that I could no longer even keep up with his movements and was forced to take a defensive position.

I'm this great Asario in the game until it's cornered like this?! No, I want to put where my pride is!

However, even in my defensive position, it is, that damn brat easily broke through my defense and defeated me by unceasingly attacking me using that cross-dimensional slash skill that was getting faster and was even unable to predict the direction of his attack.

I was really humiliated by him. I'm ashamed to admit it, but that damn kid is talented. There was no trick at all that he used.

But I still doubt that he actually progressed through the observation of me during our fight? But to say all of this was part of his plan to trick me by covering up his original skills that little by little he opened up to humiliate me, the changes were too subtle.

There was only one explanation, this from the beginning was not acting, but it was indeed the talent of that brat who could develop quickly through fighting.

If so, that damn brat is really a monster.

I've heard of it. There used to be players who were also like that who were able to enter the realm of the zone easily, increasing the concentration ability of his five senses to learn players who were higher in his ability.

Then in a short time copy the paint of his opponent's skill and make it his own even more powerful then beat his opponent from the skill of his own juror copian results. What a terrible ability!

Don't tell me that boy has the same skill? Is that why he was able to defeat Ecila the twin dragon tamer? And I was so foolishly tricked into fighting him in an unofficial match that he was able to paint my skills for free!

No, I'm not gonna take any of this. I'm going to train even harder and build skills that even that damn kid won't be able to replicate. And that time, I'll challenge him myself to practice the fight and get the damn boy battered.

“Senior, how about Senior this time use Senior's sword skill? I heard from Lia that Senior's sword can turn dark energy into light. Frankly I'm very interested to see it.”

Instantly I glanced at Lia, “You?! How can you reveal such highly classified information to others, Lia?! I have never even used it in any official match?!”

“Eh, but it's been an open secret. Just look at how the commentators of the recent overseas match talked about it during the Senior match there. And also, as long as Senior knows, Luca also has a weapon whose skills are very similar to Senior's weapons.”

“What?” My mouth immediately gaped with Lia's statement.

How not? After a strong effort I grabbed 1 weapon which he said there were only 9 pairs in the game the AD series. Nine pairs of opposing weapons, bright masked black and dark masked white.

I even obtained this weapon while still in the series of the twelfth game Sriconia, the sword of the devil covered in light, Macedonia. And it was clearly rumored that the light-masked black weapons had all appeared, while the dark-masked white ones had only eight. Which means having that boy is…

“So can't, Senior?” The words of that damn boy suddenly ripped me out of my daydream.

“Clearly cannot, boy policy *****!” Unknowingly even a rude swearing came out through my mouth.

Ah, I got the stone. I who from the beginning wanted to make Luca ashamed, ended up making myself ashamed in front of my juniors.

Senior Asario who is famous for his dedicated character even cursed harshly with indecent words after losing a landslide to a newbie boy, who was, at least that kind of news will definitely be sticking out among my juniors in the near future.

“Ehem. I'm sorry, Luca. The skill cannot be shown carelessly to others because there are team management rules that prohibit it. It is a pity, when I actually also want to fight against you with that skill.”

I also tried to smile sweetly in front of the damn boy to cover up my mistakes just now in front of my junior sisters. Hopefully this really works to alleviate the effect that rumors will have on the way.

“Cih, what a pity. But it's okay. I will soon form a team and fight Senior in an official match. At that time, please fight me with all your abilities, Senior. Because I will also defeat you at that time.”

What other bullshit is that fucking kid saying?

Even though I didn't see it, I could feel that the nerve vein in my temple was already on the verge of it due to the arrogant speech of that damn brat who looked so dismissive to me. But with all my might, I finally suppressed my anger.
