Chapter Seventy-Six: The Talent of "Reading"

Just a month later, Woz announced that his swordsmanship was almost complete. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

It was done so simply?Elusa was very unwilling, and her first reaction was impossible, where is swordsmanship such a superficial thing!

She wanted to remind Wads, but she hesitated, she didn't feel qualified to teach Woz anything, even though she was Woz's nominal teacher. After all, Woz's guy practiced a unique swordsmanship that had never been seen before, and I'm afraid that no one was qualified to judge it accurately except Woz himself.

"And in the presence of that mild-looking guy, I always seemed to be surprisingly lacking in self-confidence. Am I frightened by his abilities?" Elusa walked alone on the riverbank at night, heading towards the girls' dormitory.

A day's formal work made Elusa feel tired, not physical fatigue, after all, in the previous "hell", her daily workload was several times greater than this, more psychological fatigue - this guild has a better attitude towards herself, although she has only joined the guild for only three months, everyone treats her as a family member, and the president even asks a doctor to treat his eyes...... All this flattered the young girl a little: is this the guild where Grandpa Luopu is?

Alusa is a serious person by nature, in order to live up to the care of her friends, even if she is not good at communication, she is still working hard in her own way, and repaying everyone with her full work. Therefore, in the face of those tasks that are not very difficult, she does not dare to relax, and always goes all out to complete them perfectly. The amount of effort put in is somewhat out of proportion to the difficulty of the task itself.

But Elusa didn't care about this, but was a little worried that she wouldn't be able to reach the level recognized by the guild, because she had a Woz in front of her as a role model! Woz, who could complete all tasks with a heavy weight every time, was the reference object that Elusa recognized, because among the younger generation, only he and the Laxus, who was often absent from the guild, were experienced official magicians, and Elusa thought that since she was also recognized as an official magician, she had to show her due level!

This young girl who has just arrived at the guild does not know that the two "role models" she has chosen, Laxus and Woz, are not official magicians that can be described as common sense, even if they are still fifteen-year-olds, they are already the top people in the guild in terms of strength. So Elusa struggled to catch up.

Magnolia is not too bustling metropolis, and the girl's apartment is located in the suburbs, there is no one on the road except for Elusa herself, but the empty path also brings a comfortable peace, and the breeze blows like nothing, which makes the girl forget her troubles and gently hum an unknown tune.

"Woo~~"

The wind in front of her was a little strange, as if a trace of discord had suddenly broken into a harmonious environment, and the girl frowned unhappily. Someone, in the moonlight of the night, she saw a familiar figure not far away.

The girl immediately recognized it, it was the place where she and Woz practiced their swords every morning, and the figure at this moment was also wielding a long sword, and the strange movement moves, the unique sense of rhythm and rhythm, and the unique sound of breaking the sky when the thin sword "paper" danced, made her recognize the identity of that person at a glance.

"So he was so diligent? He practiced at night. Elusa muttered to herself, "So he can master that sword technique in a month?"

"Woz!" Elusa called out the other man's name. After a month of contact, Woz became one of the few friends of Elusa, especially in places with fewer people, and Elusa called her by her first name.

When she quickened her pace and approached until she could see the other party more clearly, Elusa began to hesitate: "Wo...... Belch...... Gray...... Is it?"

It's no wonder that the girl admitted her mistake, the boy in front of her is in the state of **** on his upper body at the moment, as if he was wearing only a pair of shorts like on the beach.

But his height, and muscular physique, were clearly not something that Elusa herself and a child of Gray's age could have, not to mention the swordsmanship he was practicing, and the unique long sword in his hand, which only Woz could have...... But isn't Gray the one who has exhibitionism? and why does Wads......

Sensing that someone was coming, Wads also stopped training, and after seeing who the other party was, the boy suddenly looked very embarrassed.

"Yo, Elusa...... Did you come back so late? It's hard work!" Woz scratched his head and greeted awkwardly. It's a little embarrassing, I don't know if it's because I'm found naked, or if I don't want to be found out about practicing alone, of course, it's more likely to be both, Woz blushed a little.

Elusa took two steps back, hid her slightly flushed face in the night, and responded calmly: "Evening, good night, Woz, you have worked hard too, you are still practicing so late." ”

Woz was silent for a moment, feeling that she still needed to explain that Elusa might have a misunderstanding.

"This ...... I really didn't expect anyone to pass by at this time...... In short, this is not intentional, please forgive me for being rude!"

Elusa calmed down and thought about it, and also felt that Woz would not be such a Meng Lang person: "So, did it bother you? Wox should have some purpose, right?"

Waz picked up the robe that had been placed on the stone next to him and put it on, before turning around and explaining, "That's right, this is indeed my special training program. ”

"Because the swordsmanship of the thin sword "paper" is too demanding, the ordinary way of swinging the sword is completely unfeasible, because it will break the sword...... It needs to be completely 'homeopathic', which means avoiding all resistance and finding a slash path with no resistance at all or even enough power to swing the sword. ”

Elusa nodded in agreement and understanding, she had tried the thin sword "paper" these days - Wuse had sent her a bundle of swords - and she had broken no less than Wads, so she knew this very well.

Seeing Elusa nodding, Woz breathed a sigh of relief and continued, "With my eyes alone, my vision is no longer sufficient to obtain the best line, after all, air and anything cannot be seen, even with hearing, in fact I am not good at hearing......"

Elusa was surprised, "How come? Not even your eyes are enough?"

No wonder Elusa was surprised, although it is said that Woz's unique magic is word magic, but his greatest reliance is not on this, but on his talent "reading", officially thanks to this powerful auxiliary talent support, Woz can maximize the potential of his word magic. With this natural ability, Wox can do things like "ten lines at a glance" and "look at the monument" without exaggeration, and it is because of this ability that he immediately read all the content on the task board when he first arrived at Fairy Tail, and instantly grabbed the content of the task list in the hands of others.

Of course, this is only the most basic use of "reading", and more importantly, Woz can "read" magic! that is, by observing other magic to interpret it, and finally describe it through his own word magic, and appeal to the same magic effect in his writing, it becomes Woz's own "magic". It can be said that "reading" is the foundation of all of Woz's magic!

Wox had specially shown Elusa his natural ability "Reading", just by simply looking at it, he understood and copied Elusa's costume magic array, although it was only the lowest-level magic sword and other short weapons, but Woz did simulate the same effect through his own word magic, and could even be directly connected to Elusa's own storage space. This ability to learn to imitate cheats made Elusa understand the reason for Woz's unique learning style, and it also impressed Elusa.

However, such a convenient and powerful ability is not enough, so how exaggerated is the difficulty of this thin sword swordsmanship?

Waz explains: "Swordsmanship is a melee skill, and in close-quarters, or even zero-range, high-paced combat, I simply don't have time to decipher the flow of air. So, I have to rely on ......"

Elusa subconsciously replied, "Instinct?"

"My warrior talent isn't that good yet...... I want to talk about the sense of touch, which uses the touch of the skin all over the body to capture the flow of air currents, and then interpret the direction of the sword. ”

"Haptics, can this be done?" said Elusa, raising her arm to feel the so-called air current.

Wodds said, "It's about the same as your instincts, right?"

Elusa was still skeptical: "But does the sense of touch really work? ”

"Elusa, you should be able to do the same, the ability to sense the enemy's moves through the air currents during battle. It's especially useful in close combat. And don't think that my reading ability is so narrow that I only rely on my vision!"

Elusa suddenly said, "So you were practicing using your sense of touch to sense the flow of the wind?"

Woz nodded: "Because I'm not proficient yet, I will wear as little as possible to make it easier to find a feeling." ”

Elusa said, "Is there anything I need help with?"

"......" Woz, "no, I'm already thanking Elusa for my training every morning." ”

"Then, I'll go back first, and I wish you early success. ”

Woz nodded and thanked: "Thank you for your encouragement, if you succeed, please eat the crystal cake." ”

"It turns out that Sister Elusa's love for sweets was influenced by Woz's seniors?" Lilin said excitedly, feeling that she had discovered a great secret.

Lucy imagined Woz with the cake for a moment, and said, "Woz-senpai doesn't look like a person with a sweet tooth." ”

Mila Jenny pointed her index finger to her lips and recalled, "I remember Watts saying that he didn't like sweets, but he used to choose sweets. Because I lived in a very cold place when I was a child, it was easy to conserve calories by eating sweets...... That's what he said. ”

Elusa nodded in agreement, "Wox is really not a person who knows how to taste desserts, and watching him eat strawberry cake always feels like a huge waste." She remembered the way Woz stuffed the cake into his mouth with a blank face.
