Chapter 20: Sword Technique and Kendo
The idea of learning a sword from Miyamoto Musashi was not a whim of Ryuxia, but was well thought out.
Since becoming a killer, Ryuxia's methods are not single, but they are not rich enough after all, and in most cases they can only use bombs to blast their targets, but when they can't kill the opponent, they use pistols, stun guns, tranquilizer bullets and other props.
But after Ryuxia became a [sub-servant], and the people around him changed from normal people in the surface world to magicians and monsters in the inner world, his methods seemed to be a little stretched.
Compare and two ceremonies、The battle of Bai Chun Rixu will be known。
When facing these two people, Ryuxia used a bomb to paste his face first every time, but under the opponent's far beyond the reaction speed and physical strength of ordinary people, the bomb was often avoided by the other party, resulting in useless work.
In the end, it is often necessary to finish it with a pistol.
Obviously, he has become a [sub-servant] who surpasses ordinary people, and has physical abilities and abilities far beyond ordinary people, but he only relies on pistols to fight, and at the same time, his quality beyond ordinary people is completely ineffective.
You know, in the realm of [Servant], the pistol can't be considered a terrifying thing anymore.
Even Ryuxia, who is the weakest among the servants, has the confidence to easily dodge bullets with the cooperation of his E-level nerve reaction speed and future vision, and as long as it is not a firearm such as a sniper rifle, it is difficult to do much damage to him now.
If you want to fight powerful Servants, powerful enemies, relying on pistols will not work at all.
There are other powerful tools that must be learned.
Most of the servants are fighting with cold weapons, of course, the cold weapons in the slave world are completely different from the cold weapons in the eyes of ordinary people, and the knives and guns in the hands of the servants have speed and strength beyond the limit, and most of the time they are also their treasures, which are powerful enough to match or even surpass the missile, enough to lay the victory in one move.
If he could, of course, Ryuxia would also want to get such a powerful military uniform as his own treasure, but unfortunately, he didn't have that kind of way at all, even if he could get those armor, he might not be able to use it, and he couldn't turn it into his own treasure.
And now, Musashi's swordsmanship is the only one that Ryuxia can obtain, enough to develop his new fighting methods and improve his combat effectiveness.
"Now that I have become a [Subservant], I will definitely encounter all kinds of unimaginable enemies in the future, whether active or passive, it is impossible for me to escape from this whirlpool."
Ryusha didn't have the idea of hiding it from Musashi, and if he hid it a little bit in this kind of thing, it would easily cause Musashi's disgust, although he hid a lot of things from her, but only in terms of teaching skills, he must not be cheated.
"I had to learn a new way to fight...... It's not such a big idea, it should disappoint you a little, right? ”
The inner world, like the surface world, is a huge aggregate of human beings, and 'society' is the same thing.
If such a group is trapped, there is no way to get out.
"I see, I see."
Musashi nodded thoughtfully, and said casually: "It's nothing to care about, although your reasons are ordinary, sometimes ordinary represents the truth, because the vast majority of people in this world have chosen to become stronger in order to protect themselves from the beginning." ”
"And, don't get me wrong, Ryuxia-chan, I don't plan to teach you, I'm just thinking about what I should teach you."
As he said this, Musashi's face couldn't help but show a little embarrassment, touched the back of his head, and spoke in a straightforward tone.
"To be honest, because it's my first time teaching others, I'm actually a little confused......"
Musashi, who is about twenty years old, is far from reaching the peak of her life, and now she is only at a stage similar to the stage in history when she was still traveling around and learning from famous swordsmen, not to mention the most famous [Gowashu], and even the [Two Days First-class] was not fully established.
"Hmm...... Ryuxia-chan, although this world is also very exciting, I shouldn't be able to stay in this world for long, during the time I stay in this world, I will teach you all my sword skills as much as possible, but I will not teach you my [kendo]. ”
After pondering for a while, Miyamoto Musashi made an extremely solemn speech to Ryuxia.
[Sword Technique] and [Kendo] are two concepts, but also two choices and paths.
Most of the swordsmen in history only studied [sword skills], so that their skills reached the peak that no one can match, and became a swordsman who left a name in history.
However, there are still some natural outliers who pay more attention to their [Kendo] than [Sword Skills], and they have been working hard all their lives to achieve their [Kendo].
The so-called "kendo" is a kind of pursuit, something that must be achieved even if all the hard work of life is exhausted.
Take Miyamoto Musashi in history as an example, his [kendo] is the way of emptiness.
Empty, i.e., zero.
It is also known as "no emptiness", which is the supreme realm of kendo.
It means 'invincible' and 'infinite'.
In the fifth volume of the kendo book [Gorinshu], which Miyamoto Musashi wrote before his death, there was a description of the realm of "no emptiness", leaving his own views on the way of emptiness...... However, the mystery written on it is so mysterious that basically few people can really understand it.
All in all, a swordsman who only studies [sword skills] is completely different from a swordsman who loves [kendo].
Ryuxia does not have his own pursuits, nor does he have a goal that will take him a lifetime to achieve, in other words, he is not a swordsman who loves [kendo], but chooses to use the sword as his own tool, and only studies [sword skills].
"So I'm going to teach you my swordsmanship, but I'm not going to teach you my kendo—even though I haven't finished my swordsmanship yet, I can't teach it if I want to, ahaha!"
Musashi's face showed an extremely hearty smile, and he let out a loud laugh that was only pleasant.
"That's enough, thank you."
Ryusha nodded and thanked Musashi.
Under Musashi's description, he had a half-scale understanding of [kendo].
The so-called [kendo], in his opinion, is a path that needs to be poured with his own feelings.
But Ryuxia has no feelings, no obsession to speak of, it is impossible to fall in love with [Kendo], in his heart, let alone a sword, even Musashi himself, who taught him swordsmanship, is just a tool he uses to achieve his goals.
He was inherently unsuitable to comprehend [Kendo], and it was enough to be able to learn Musashi's sword skills and turn them into his own combat power.
Anyway, most of the battles between the Servants are also a duel of absolute strength and concepts between each other, and the strength or weakness of [Kendo] does not matter at all.
"Moreover, the [Spiritual Base Enhancement Ability] in my [Anonymous Spiritual Root] is not a vegetarian ......"
Spiritual base promotion refers to the unconditional improvement of spiritual base level.
That means that maybe even [Kendo] can be possessed and surpassed.
