The Spearmaster and the Black Cat Chapter 13

Episode 13 Training Course

Shisho brought me to the Training Course

We went down the cliff ladders from the Goldiba home, to a large forested area in a slightly removed pace.

Here, is where young Goldiba since ancient times have come to train and polish their martial arts, cultivating themselves.

Theres a lot of different equipment

Looking around the areaplaced in various places around the forest are laid down logs creating a path.

I see a lot of logs connected to chains and rope which lead into the sky. Theres also an object which has numerous claws attached to end of a log, hanging from rope in the air. Theres also traces of old blood on a bokujin shaped like a person.

This place is used forbalance training on logs and the dogging this Wind Mower, this Claw Grinder is used to train attacking moving targets and is a high-level course. The Bokujin fitted with sharpened wooden blades pursues and is called Dancing Prison.

Beside the devices he mentioned just now, there are a lot of things I fear are special training devices.

To one which looks like a giant water jug around stairs, theres even a training ground placed vertically.

The edge of the training ground is characteristic, a wall like a cliff extends up thirty feet up the cliff perpendicularly.

Somehow or other, that seems to be for training as well.

A groove going up lengthwise is dug.

Is it pull-up training?

The Training Course is the like the training ground at a Shaolin Monastery.

When I was young, I too came here to train.

I said it before, but this training ground is from the old days?

Thats right. These seem to be from distant ancient times, I was taken care of in this place when I was a child. Shuya will train the spear here. At first from the basics. I think Shuya will get the hand of it immediately. Well, lets get started.

Yes!

Training takes place at the Wind Mower.

Im made to stand on a shaking log hanging from a rope attached at each end.

While the log shakes randomly, it is the feeling of attacking the designate place with my black spear, there the bokujin was tied across with leather straps as my partner to destroy by balance.

Ill shake it.

Okay.

Shisho shakes the log.

Training begins.

Faster, thrust quickly, thats right. Walk forward, be careful of your steps. Be quicker, maintain your speed!

Hai!

It lasted for about 30 minutes, but I was able to perform well without losing my balance.

Pikon{Sense of Balance} Permanent Skill Acquired.

In no time, I get the permanent skill Sense of Balance.

After all, Shuya is outside the norm. You adapted yourself immediately. I think it isdifficult but how about you challenge Claw Grinder?

Im excited about what it will be.

What kind of training is it?

Walking on the log while blindfolded, feel the target while dodging the approaching log attack with the claws which I move, its purpose is to land an attack on the target.

Blindfolded trainingwow, are you serious?

Blindfolded?

Yeah. Worried?

Shisho smiles, but its not a smile.

Are you a demon coach?

I talk normally without saying that.

No, Ill try it.

My eyes are covered with leather, and I carry out training.

Guhuh.

Ooow, I abruptly failed.

Despite the log, an awful shock is taken from the right.

I fell from my foothold on the log splendidly.

As expected, you cant deal with it the first time. Is it the fear of losing your sight?

I was surely scared.

But, if I imagine it, I have the feeling I can do something about it.

Later, well, by reckless intention.

Thats so. Well, because the pain fades away immediately, I think I can manage it if I challenge it several times.

Alright, but stay alive. Keep trying. Feeling the interval, is the secret to avoid is to rotate.

Yes!

I collided many times with the claw log, falling.

However, as I did I became more familiar with it. Step and the sound, when to center the rotation on the sole of my foot, the pause of the approaching claws, when I grasp the range of the black spear, I become able to avoid the claws of the log.

The mental image unites with the foresight.

And, instantly I rotate on the toes of my feet, avoiding the pursuing talons for the second time.

Pikon {Light Technique} Permanent Skill Acquired

Pikon Conditions met for Light Technique Spearsman

Due to {Spearman} and {Light Technique} Class Up to {Light Technique Spearman}

Oooh, I acquired a skill, and my battle occupation classed up.

It required some time, but its a tip-toe half turn. Both the rotation speed and the pace have a way to go but this will be enough for the first day. Lets move to the next training. Follow me.

When I follow, we go to a rocky area piled up a cliff.

Ill have you climb the cliff here.

Climb this cliff?

Shisho, with this spear?

Thats right. Hold the black spear in both hands, using the recoil of the body scratch a groove to attack the metal bar of the spear, the training is to move up. (TN: I thought it wasnt but it is, ITS THESALMON LADDER)

On the cliff face leading to the top lateral grooves are dug in t intervals.

I have to climb while putting the spear in those grooves.

Is it something simple like pull-up strength training?

The feeling of the training is like Chinese martial art or Jeet Kune Do.

Putting emphasis on my arms, I hang from the black spear in the groove and while recoil, more to say, I lift the black spear, its that feeling. (TN: Salmon Ladder)

Partly because the training raised my physical abilities, I was able to do it without really being bothered. When I easily arrive at the top,

Fast. Get down by yourself.

Okay.

When I get down, Shisho begin speaking.

This time climb while being conscious of managing your mana.

I understand.

I can climb it, but my concentration is obviously interrupted.

While somehow being conscious of mana management, I finish going up and down.

For the next several days, I intend to perform training like this. Today repeat wind mower, claw grinder and cliff climbing as a set.

Yes.

The training continues for one week.

During that time, training shifted to using the advanced training equipment Dancing Prison, Balance Runs, and Killing Rotation.

But, the result was the training with Dancing Prison was full of desperate struggles

This training, is the feeling of the collective wisdom up until now.

The beginning is standing on a long log with small footing while blindfolded.

Its the same as with Claw Grinder, the log begins swaying intensely.

Thus far, its generally normal, but

Suddenly the wooden scarecrow doll equipped with sharpened wooden stakes, interrupting a great number of times with attacks, and whether I defeat or dodge the bokujin, a rope net is fired from all directions. Even if that can be avoided well with a light jump, the place I land changes by the rotating log, and again the intense attack by the bokujins stake blades approaches.

The first time a stake blade sticks in my arm and I fall from the log, failing.

The second time Im stabbed in the abdomen and fail. The third time Im stabbed in the foot and fail.

I suffer serious wounds several times, but Im the new race originating from the vampires.

Rusivault.

So, the wounds are immediately restored.

Continuing repeatedly, I perform Continuous Chasing Pole training.

First I quickly became familiar with the bokujins wooded stake blade, but my body was caught by the wide rope net which is fired at random.

As its trajectory is irregular its not easy to adjust to.

Around 50 times I got entangled in the net, falling to the ground and failing.

It might be the 200th time

Finally, I just barely succeed with just a scratch.

That moment

Extra Skill Derivation Skill Condition Met for Cerebral Spine Demon Revolution

Pikon Light Exercise Brain Buff Permanent Skill Acquired

{Sense of Balance} {Light Technique} and {Light Exercise Brain Buff} Fuse

Pikon Super Light Brain Buff Intuition Permanent Skill Acquired

I acquire linked skills and they fuse.

I become able to perform all the training with no margin of error after obtaining this special skill.

I experience that this is an excellent skill.

My mobility performance improves rapidly.

Effects continued to be shown by training the physical ability system.

Shisho was amazed, I decided not to mind it.

And, two months passed.

As a result of training, various abilities have risen.

It was enjoyable to confirm with status that they rose 0.1 each day.

The abilities that matched what I trained tends to be easier to raise to some extent. The last trend, however.

I spend my life training favorably, but one thing was troubling.

Its about my sleep.

I cant fall asleep.

Even after two months have passed, I cant fall asleep.

The time I was living underground, it could be worse.

Therefore, even now I lay there looking at the view of the night sky through my wooden window.

For now, Ill close my eyes again.

I have to be up early tomorrow, and because theres training and work to do I need to sleepwhile feeling the back of my eyelids, in order to sleep, I look back on the two months.

Its almost like my daily montage.

Before the dim break of dawn, I see the figure of Achille-shisho and start training at the Training Course.

I finish training when the morning sun rises, and then I help with distributing the livestock feed.

As soon as I finish, I eat breakfast.

Spreading water on the field after breakfast, I perform spear training with Shisho again.

And, lunch.

I take a light break.

In the afternoon I do training at the Training Course, and I go out to the forest to help with hunting. I repeat process of drawing out mana which is the foundation of Moji, and repeat the training of taking the chain in and out.

Day pass in that pattern.

Around the time one month had passed.

The training of spear martial arts began in earnest.

Training Couse training decreased, and I began simulating fights against Shisho firsthand.

In the end, I come out full of holes without landing one attack on Shisho.

Even so, I vowed in my own way before performing mock battles.

I must not use {Cerebral Demon Speed} which was derived from the extra skill.

This way encourages my own growth. Its prohibited while Im training.

I decided that I wont use it unless it is a serious crisis.

This is a very useful skill which can significantly increase my body speed, but its because I decided that martial arts dont grow when depending on this.

I dont understand whether its the effect but my spear martial arts improved remarkably. My growth was realized my battle occupation Light Technique Spearman classed up to Spear Dancer.

In addition, for the first time I began inspection in regard to racial characteristics.

Regarding blood and soul sucking.

I tested soul sucking on the monsters injured while I helped with hunting.

At the time of death by drowning I acquire a soul, and a strong awareness. (TL: Dont know what death by drowning refers to.)

At the moment that the large deer soul was absorbed, it dried up and became only bones. In some cases, even the bones may become dust and ash with nothing left. I tasted it before, but when I absorb a soul light is emitted from my body and I got the feeling boiling up of an exhilarating sensation and vitality.

But, I was worried about the looks of Achilles-shisho and Raguren so I restrained myself. So when I hunt alone, I suck in the blood and soul without reserve.

Whenever I absorb a soul, the mind value rises.

Exactly like killing two birds with one stone.

In addition to the fact that an exhilarating sensation is obtained, my spiritual strength increases too.

As the spirit value decreased from the Divine Beast contract, this was convenient.

Even if I say I had and exhilarating sensation, its not to the point of being addicting.

However, in the situation where I suck human blood, I dont know yet.

When it comes to blood, as I knew beforehand even the blood of animals and monsters was all right.

Human blood isnt necessary, even if seven days pass, I confirmed that again that my abilities dont decrease.

But, I decided to do an experiment without sucking blood just to be sure.

Ive already experienced it twice, but I purposely carry do it for some time to verify.

As before the body becomes heavy in the same way and suffers from plasma deficiency disease, my abilities are reduced by half.

I also tried making a small cut to bleed and drinking the blood on purpose. And then, it was a little, but I noticed that the symptoms being eased.

Wondering how much blood is necessary to drink, at that moment, I understood completely.

Still the drop isnt restored.

However when I hold a drop in my mouth, its effective and the recovery effect is outstanding. Furthermore, the required amount of blood to finish filling up is one teaspoon.

The symptoms were completely restored with one teaspoon.

I was surprised the quantity was only that much to be all right.

From then on, I remember feeling relieved as it was a matter concerning my life.

Andthis, I looked back on the two months, however, I still cant become sleepy

Hu

I sighed, tossing about it bed.

However, Im a light sleeper and shortly Ill get up early in the morning.

At first I thought it was the different environment, but it seems like its different.

As the body is from the vampire lineage, it might be the result of the extra skill {Cerebral Demon Spine Revolution}, I dont understand the definite reason yetafter all, I thought a while ago that the way this body is I might not need sleep anymore.

If sleepiness comes, Ill sleep normally

Still, sleepiness doesnt come.

But, it may be a good thing.

I decide it will be good to have no sleepiness when I begin my life as an adventurer.

Adventurer life

Speaking of adventurer

I was taught the basics of being an adventurer by Shisho.

Summarizing it

Blood is needed when applying as an adventurer and the ranks go from G to S.

Theres a rank increase examination from rank C, if theres strength its possible to rank up to rank D in a day.

Concerning Clan establishment and Party formation, theres small rules in every city.

To become C, B, or A rank expect for exceptions, its necessary to complete more than thirty D rank requests, furthermore you can also request a one on one combat test from the guild. Then if you succeed in passing and having your ability recognized at C, it becomes B rank.

About A and the exception.

The story about the exception seems to be called a pioneering mission in an un-explored region.

I remember Shishos words.

A exception is a special request to be jointly carried out. As the degree of difficulty is high and victims appear in large numbers its famous. However, you can become A and S rank when you complete this request. For example, even if your rank was C, it means you can become B rank without fighting against an examiner. If its B, then A, if its A then you become S. This is an exception.’

Then from A rank called First Class Adventurers, you come to be called by a title and nickname by the surrounding adventurers.

By the way, Achilles-shisho was rank A.

Its been 300 years since Shisho was an adventurer.

I dont know whether the adventurer guild still exists, but continuing from those days, I can expect that the adventurers guild has existed for more than 300 years.

It has a long history.

Then, again I turn over in bed.

However, Shisho was called Wind like that.

When Shisho traveled every nickname, his alias seemed to change.

Achilles Two Swords Achilles Four Swords Achilles Flying Sword Achilles Moji and so on, he seemed to be called by various names.

And then, the request in the un-explored region felt immense.

And, he talked about the experience.

Long-distance transfer.

People and Beast People who dont speak the same language.

The monster of thieves and monster

While pioneering the way there were difficulties preserving the magic stone energy for maintaining the condition of the magicformations, several adventurer companions lost their lives in a fight with mercenary forces employed by slave dealers, he survived a fierce battle

I listened to Shishos story, fascinated.

Enjoyable, and I remember being excited.

Huaaaaaaa, at last, a yawn.

Naa, Ive become sleepy. Sleep, sleep.

The next day

Sleeping soundly after a long absence, the usual daily routine of training followed by going to give the livestock their feed, then I turned to the mushroom cultivating room with Shisho.

Shisho. I finished doing the feed a few minutes ago.

Oh, Im sorry. Let return now.

Shisho put a mushroom in a wooden serving bowl and returned.

Showing me the bulky mushrooms filling the bowl on purpose, he speaks with a puzzled look.

From today, well pickle to mushrooms for a while?

His face twitches a little drawn.

As one would expect having mushroom dishes every day can be unpleasant.

Haha, Rabbi-san cooking, because its delicious anything is good.

Being sure to properly back-up Rabbi-san I continue the childish conversation with Shisho while returning to the house on top of the cliff.

After breakfast, I help collect weeds around the field, I have the black spear in hand as I became free a little early and head toward the open space of the training ground.

Now, repeating the ordinary thrust {Thrust}

Doing spear training properly, Shisho walks up late.

That? In your hand?

Shisho doesnt have a black spear in his hand.

Today will be different from spear training, I want to teach life Magic and Moji.

Oh, seriously?

Achilles-shisho, for and instant, moved his eyebrows in a dubious way and repeats back the same words, Oh, seriously, instantly tightening his expression and continued talking.

Shuya, a master is basis of the foundation, it may be said that you have almost mastered mana manipulation.

Mastered it? My mana manipulation certainly has become smooth.

Its important. The mana which leaked out as to be dazzling to the master, its because it isnt released outside at all now.

Oh, it doesnt leak anymore. I hadnt really noticed.

I see, such manipulation

I say its the result of training, it was something like that. Climbing up and descending the cliff had a double purpose.

Thats right. Not only the spear, but doesnt it also you have talent for magic?

He praised my mana manipulation.

Haha, its embarrassing to be praised

Hu, immediately getting carried away, learn life magic quickly. Shuyas attribute is water. So, you should be able to produce water.

Water

How?

For you who is able to carry out mana manipulation its easy. Using your mana, you should imagine water. As your attribute is water it should be easy.

Easy, an image.

An image

Yes. As its life magic only a little mana consumption is needed to do it. As its different from the magic language aria of handling a spirit its usability is limited. Its life magic.

I imagine it with mana. Water, water, delicious cool water.

In addition, speaking of understanding water, its an ordinary chemical symbol. Its made of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom.

Then easily, I imagine water flowing through a rive

Twisting the faucet water flows, with a simple image.

Pikon {Life Magic} Skill Acquire

Pikon Apprentice Magician Condition Met

Oh, Apprentice Magician battle occupation, get.

Then, water appears from my hand. It begins to flow.

Oh, water. I can feel m mana is being lost little by little. Strange.

Similar to unified nature, the feeling that uses a part of nature.

Water stopped when I imagined the faucet being turned off.

Water was imagined, it went well.

Oh, it succeeded.

This, can you regulate the temperature for hot water or ice?

It should work. It depends on your image, but sinceits life magic the range is small but it should be up to the task.

First of all, I imagined hot water from water.

Furthermore, I have an image of warmth.

Ohlukewarm water was made.

Next, I imagine a cold lump, the lukewarm water freezes in an instant and hardens.

The ice was made easily as well.

Normal science, when water becomes 0 degrees then hydrogen bonds.

Does the ice become hexagonal crystal?

It was an exothermic reaction when ice melts and becomes water.

Furthermore, since its magicthe ice instantly turns back to water.

Normally, the ice absorbs heat and returns to water.

Are chemical reactions different?

I think the basics are kind of the same

Does it change depending on the magic staying?

Well, even if I think about it, if ice is possible now this way, its the reason why the ice doesnt change to water

Also, I can change to form of the ice at will.

This is convenient.

With the sense of playing a bit with clay, I can play.

I make water with such a feeling, and when I create a horse and small person from ice and play, Shisho makes a surprised expression.

This is amazing. Molding the ice doll like that is interesting. Even though its Life Maho, its able to be molded to that extent

If I imagine it, I can do it.

Shisho shows an amazed face at my goofy behavior.

Really, youre playinghowever, as outside Im a magic follower (TL: something funky here), Im not sure but, if its Shuya, maybe its the water Magician? You could aim for arch mage too.

Whats an arch mage?

Ah, but, wellits time. Learning this and that, I should mainly teach spear martial arts now.

Okay, well, its fun when I can make water freely.

Saying so, producing water around, I created water rings in the sky and repeated water rings creating natural puzzle rings and played.

Umu. Even when its this extend making the water this smooth? Watering the field can be left to you in the future. Its because I dont have to water attribute.

I see.

Getting into the swing of it, my work has increased by one.

Next is a Moji Skill. Purely on your own try doing Mana Release and Mana Stop.’

I stop performing life magic, and nod slowly.

Its the long-awaited moji, the tension is high, Ill do my best.

Release and Stop

At first you should try release. Doing it is simple.

As was said, manipulating mana, I put out my hand and try it

Man like a pale light blue flame comes out of my hand.

Pikon Moji Development Successful {Guidance Moji} Skill Acquired

Oh, Guidance Moji appeared in the upper left of my vision.

And then the sound effect resounds in my head. I did it, I acquired the Guidance Moji Skill.

Next be aware of keeping the manain your body.

Yes.

Good! Concentrate.

I draw up my mana, and diffuse it via my blood vessels inside my body.

I contain the diffusing mana.

I contain it in my body by circulating it in my blood flow. A feeling of wearing the mana to stimulate my cells.

Pikon Moji Development Successful {Fighting Moji} Skill Acquired

Pikon {Fighting Moji Knowledge} Permanent Skill Acquired

The red letters of skill acquisition appear in my view.

Achilles-shisho also seems surprised, frowning exaggeratedly and widening his eyes.

Nusuddenly

UhhShisho?

Im surprisedthis, is impressive

I learned the Fighting Moji skill at the same time.

It changes from a sensation to a real feeling.

Haha

With a surprised expression on his face, Achilles-shisho utters a dry laughter.

Shisho?

Now hes laughing

No no, I was surprised, wearing it. Shuyas fighting mojiguidance moji really is a beginner, but I could be said you fighting moji is first class.

First class

Im certainly able to spread out my mana smoothly.

But I acquired knowledge at the same time

Oh, as expected, you learned the fighting moji type skill at the same time, but as for acquiring {Fighting Moji Knowledge}, all the same fighting moji is equal to a top class. Guidance moji is the same as an amateur, but reallythe amplitude of the guy is enormous. (TL: amplitude could also be swing of pendulum; I think the author is trying to say MCs range of abilities is huge.) I think its related to performing the foundation of mana manipulation in precisely a monthwhat kind of classification is it?

What kind of classification. After saying such a thing

Is this a first-class kind?

I have the feeling that my body has surely adapted to fighting moji

Well, one possibility

It may be thanks to {Cerebral Demon Speed} which was obtained with the extra skill {Cerebral Demon Spine Revolution}. Well, the moment I got that skill, a strange sense ran though my whole body from my brain stem. Something spreads throughout my whole body, the feeling of the neural net increasing to spread through every micro detail of my cells.

By any chance was that something mana?

Well, by that, did the foundation magic moving inside my body increase?

And I wonder ifafter, common

Image. Its easy to make an image of fighting moji, yeah.

In old manga, games, anime, movies, novels

I enjoyed various ones. Such an image is abundant.

Its easy to make the image, so I understand. Manais controlled by a persons own image. Then, concentrate your mana on your arm and try hitting the ground.

Yes

I collect the manain my right hand.

I cover my fingers with cold invigorating mana, hardening the joints.

From the fingers to the back of the hand and to the wrist I harden myself with mana.

In this condition, I try hitting the ground.

Nun!

In the ground a fist sized hole appeared.

Amazing.

Im surprised by myself.

Nuothat was so. Because from the start Shuya had high physical abilities from the vampire lineage, the hole appeared. Fighting moji seems to have increases the power even moreyou can concentrate mana in one place that way to strengthen it. However, it may be more suitable for Strong Spear Style than Wind Spear Style

Shisho in conclusion absent-mindedly says something.

I look at both my palms wonderingly.

The back of the arm that penetrated the ground, its a little red.

Without fighting moji, blood would be flowing from my fist.

This is fighting moji.

Shisho continued his pedantic explanation.

Fighting moji is a moji that invigorates the inside of the body and strengthens the body. Its effective not only for attacking but also for defense to some extent. However, although fighting moji concentrates mana in one place to protect the body, Its not a match for something with a blade. The basis is living flesh, flesh and bones. The defense only rises so much. This is also true for attacks. A sharp weapon is more effective for a sword or spear. When the physical ability is high like Shuyas, the story is different. Even fighting with fighting moji will work well enough as a weapon

Hand-to-hand fighting type ability.

Then with fighting moji, is it a simple hand-to-hand fighting type?

Achilles-shisho shakes his head left and right.

No, its not simple. It may be called the most important in Moji.

Shisho tells me briskly and raises his index finger, emphasizing the importance.

What is it?

It varies, butthe first one. Conditionally, but youll understand if you actually do it. Concentrate manain your eyes using fighting moji and look.’

Condition? In the eyes. Ill try it.

Concentrate on my eyes

Maintain that condition, try looking at me

I collect manain my eyes as I am told and look at Shisho.

and, there are the numerous shining branches spreading out from Shishos body is it mana? But I caught sight of something happening.

It extends windingall around.

Surprising, but what are those

The innumerable shining bands were connected to four swords like branches.

Oh, as one would expect. You easily cleared the condition just now. Can you see my guidance moji?

Yes. Well, its amazing

With this, the mechanism looks like Im floating four swords, but you should have understood it clearly. The act of holding fighting moji in the eyes is called Observing Eye and Magic Observing Eye.’

I listened to the explanation with using magic observing eye.

The is magic observing eyewell, what was the condition?

Shisho points at his eyes and says,

The condition is eyes. Eyes that store manaand eyes dont both exist. Its said that there arent many people with these kind of eyes, but no one understands such a specific thing. It may increase now. I confronted someone with these magic observing eyes during my adventurer days, mostly it was talent.’

Eeh, eyes.

I guess; these eyes are valuable or something?

Achilles-shisho nods in agreement, explaining tangibly and begins demonstrating moving ones own guidance moji Light Band.

Thats right. They will be valuable. And, the manaI emitting outside is called Guidance Moji Line and Magic Line. If, you fight someone, but in the situation youve mastered the three Moji and are carrying a weapon and wearing armor, you can follow the movement of the magic lines. The reason I say that is that its obvious at a glance where mana is moving. Of course, when your opponent is a magic User you can see the structure of the magic. Furthermore, it can be used in place of {Night Vision}. Seeing a part of the source of magic, you can see the flow of mana which people and monsters use. With this, do you understand that this magic observing eye becomes extremely important?

Certainly, its important that I know this information.

Know your enemy and know yourself I think it goes. The Art of War book it too great.

Yes.

Establishing this defensive and offensive moji is essential. Its important to overcome whats ahead. Fighting moji is considerably important.

The guidance moji type magic released like an aureole by Shishos body looks like a work of art. The gathered shining bands, look to be collected settled shining wings

Incredible

Thats so. Now I understand. The greatness of shisho.

Living for such a long time isnt for show, and then, theres one more important thing. Movement speed is increased when fighting moji is collected in the feet. Its called magic legs or fighting magic legs. Its an important breathing technique in emergencies

Every single word that Shisho said, brought back memories of my child hood.

One short moment of action.

Continuously holding my breath is okay at first, but it doesnt follow.

With the cage style, without exception be sure to breathe while using all of the skills together.

And add a tempo.

Achilles-shishos words overlaps with my grandfathers in my previous life, echoing in my head.

When grandfather was still in good health

Grandfather loved kendo. He called himself cressent style, and I was taken to a gymnasium and dojo frequently, though I cried being made to do kendo by force

I didnt last long; in the end I only did swimming.

Grandfathers eyes were always earnest.

Achilles-shishos face doesnt resemble the grandfather from my past life at all, but when the thing I see overlap I can see the same earnest look in his eyes.

So, I surely saw it.

I was a dull cowardly child at the time, its different now.

Whats wrong?

Ah, yes. The tempo is important, timing, the interval changes.

Achilles-shisho fixes his eyes on me, and nods in admiration.

Just like that. As expected, youre quick to learn. I think Im a little jealous.

Eh? Shisho?

Im surprised. I look at Achilles-shishos eyes.

His eyes are serious. It doesnt seem to be a joke.

Isnt that true? Its because Shuyas talent is staggering. Are there some irregular differences? But, such things are trivial. At any rate, the foundation itself is great. The ability like a great dragon as if reaching to the heavens. You had no trouble when the intensity of the Training Course increased, like a dry fish getting water, is because you absorb without sparing my techniques? Really, when you arrived here only a little more than two months ago

Great Isuparu

I know what that is but he praised it.

Its thanks to Shisho. Yasu!

Without thinking, I bowed like in karate.

Mm? What was that? Sono, that way of speaking to get fired upYasu!

Haha

I didnt particularly do karate in my past life, but I have done some before.

You definitely have talent, butyour guidance moji still has a way to go. From now on Ill give priority to training your guidance moji. Fairy Moji is learned immediately if you master guidance moji. Even if I say that no one one has ever told me fairy moji is my strong point. (TL: Shisho isnt that talented in fairy moji.)

Mm, theres things you arent amazing at.

When you say its not your forte, will different people have different strong points?

Achilles-shiho, floating the short swords in the air with guidance moji, continues to talk normally.

There are, but this can be said to be the result of preference. As for me, I study guidance moji because I enjoy it, its the result of continued use. Its my forte now.

Its dependent on what I study, huh. Anyways, its discipline.

Achilles-shisho return to a strict expression, and adds.

Exactly. At first improving the image, the light blue mana emission is useless. For now, aim at colorless and transparent. And then, make your image even longer and thinner. Hmm, lets go back. Work on blacksmithing to make metal fittings and alchemy.

Emissionthen colorless and transparent.

I understand.

Its a series of failures afterwards.

The light blue mana emission doesnt become transparent.

Again and again, I attempt it but dont succeed.

Even once it was night it was still no good.

It was no good the next day or the day after that.

As could be expected, it seems to be reflected in my face, in addition to Raguren and Rabbi-san at dinnertime, Refaa treated me like shes was about me.

Rollo two feelers on my cheeks too and continues sending affectionate feelings for a long time.

I stroked her back in return.

For a while I continued training guidance moji in this condition, but I didnt make progress, on the following day, and again on the next day, my released mana didnt becomes transparent.

As one would expect I became a little depressed.

Achilles-shisho isnt bothered by it? It cant be helped by being impatient?

And, encouraging me,

Lets train the spear a bit.

With such a feeling, in a hurry, for the first time I begin training the spear with a different intent.

I turn towards Achilles-shisho to perform a little form practice.

Each of us slowly moving our bodies, without aiming the spears at our bodies, stopping just before we hit.

The practice is fun as well as interesting.

The reason is the accuracy of the techniques becomes apparent from the slow movement of the body.

Various things, guidance moji doesnt improve even after I train for one week, I didnt do well, but because the things to do also increased I wasnt so bothered.

That is, practicing riding the magic beast Popobumu.

Taking the opportunity to teach me while feeling it, Achilles-shisho told me it was time and Im brought to the barn under the cliff.

From today on, well practice mounting Popobumu. First step on the saddle, Thisdo it

This?

Rough and bumpy

The sensation of mounting Popobumus saddle for the first time, a brief sense of uneasiness.

Feeling like mounting rock hard muscle under the feeling of the soft saddle, it is stiff and unstable.

Thats right. After holding the reins leave the rest to Popobumu.

Okay.

When I grasp the reins, a heavy bass sounds comes frmo Popobumus nostrils.

The sound of it breathing is a heavy bass sound bobu* is totally like the sound from a conch whistle, one step, one step, a foot was moved in a heavy manner.

The rock like muscles can be felt moving slowly under the saddle.

Im surprised by the movement, its pleasantly, and the movement becomes habit.

Only pull a little on the reins to stop.

I see.

The day ends with just a walk.

I start practicing riding Popobumu and became able to run on the second day.

Popobumu is smart. Can you whistle?

Yes. Pipipipi.

I comply with my simple special skill.

I-is it the sound of a bird? If the whistle is blow simply, Popobumu will return even from faraway. You should remember this.

Okay. Ill remember. Then, well run a little bit.

Accordingly, I speed up a little.

As a result of having continued riding Popobumu, I get hurt with a sore from my inner thigh to my bottom.

But, I recover immediately. Hey, its kosureta again!

My buuttt, it stings, fun

Aaaah chaffiiiinnng, oretachi

Im cold, suusuu, funfunfun Butt huuurts.

I sing a strange song while humming a tune.

In addition, while I ride around, I cause a thigh sore, and recover. And, repeating this many times while riding around, I become accustomed to riding.

After about five days, as a result of repeated riding.

Pikon {Magic Beast Riding} Skill Acquired

I got magic beast riding.

While the guidance moji practice wasnt going well, I was happy having acquired the enjoyable magic beast riding skill.

The handling of Popobumu progresses remarkably after that.

Even if I ride for a long time, the thigh sores stop happening, and the speed of running across the plateau has increased too. Run.

It became possible to turn without losing speed.

Youre considerably accustomed now? It seems all right to guide the livestock. As it is rush over to the plateau belt over there.

With Achilles-shisho on Popobumu, I race to the plateau.

The wind feels good. Its enjoyable to ride an animal like this.

Feeling the wind, taking in the smell of the plateau grass.

I run though the splendor of nature.

I think about nothing, simply dash across the plateau, the action becomes habit.

But for a moment, the music I heard in my previous life is played back in my head.

Its simple, however I feel a small happiness even in this.

Coming to this other world was good.

When I return to the barn feeling better, the black cat Rollodinu jumped up energetically.

Placing herself on the back of Popobumus head, she calls Nya, Nya! in an excited voice.

Mewing as if to be picked up by me, hurry! Hurry! Is that what youre saying?

There was no helping it in the hurried condition where Rollodinu was riding on the back of Popobumus head. The black cat Rollo seems delighted when I run a little, and then, comfortably she begins to cry out loud meow Nya, Nyaa, Nya.

Using the feeler like a whip, she strikes it on Popobumus neck and

Hahaha, Divine Beast-sama, she is pleased.

Achilles-shiso was chasing from the side and laughing while watch Rollodinu.

Thus riding the magic beast Popobumu goes smoothly.

I ride around happily, without the important guidance moji going well, I continues the hard struggle the whole time.

With my mana as light blue as ever.
