After slaying the monster. I don't know why Ellena started screaming in delight. Though I understand the prettiness of the system, I can't fathom why it wasn't because of the system this ti.
"What's wrong? You just shouted like a crazy person." I asked while she was still giggling after a long cheerful shout.
"You can't understand it? It was amazing! This sword technique just made my movents accurate. Also, the understanding of the sword that the technique gave made slice the head like normal at!"
I… can't understand her… Why is it? Because I don't know anything about swords! Well, I know so but it's way back from Earth and in this world, I only know swords from what I see Ellena does.
"Care to explain? It's confusing ." I said to her.
She just nodded and put her sword back in its scabbard then looked at . Her hands started moving into gestures while explaining things to .
"Well you see, from what my instructor said, weapons are just detachable extension parts of our body."
Huh? That's absurd!
… Well, I could say that it's a bizarre belief. I an, like, swords are just tals.
However, let's be practical. Universal laws in this world are different from mine. So I think that is based on my fantasies... Swords in this world have an essence?
"It also explains why Weapon Auras exist. For people who use weapons, when they get a high comprehension of that weapon, they can unlock an extraordinary way of using that weapon. For example, the technique I used earlier made my attacks pass through easily. It took so of my stamina to activate and blend with the mana in the surrounding area, then I achieved beheading it easily!"
Wow… Just… I didn't expect that weapons would be this great. I an, I was hoping to build a gun for convenience, but it appears that I don't need to. Since Ellena just explained everything to , she can use the sword as a long-range attack too.
For example, weapon aura. It can fly toward the enemy, but it takes a huge chunk of stamina, and if you're not a mage rune owner or a CC rune owner that has that specific ability, you need a rough connection to mana to use Weapon Aura.
And now that this technique also has that effect on Ellena's understanding of swords, it can unlock a greater connection with mana since the way she used the sword was infused with mana which she took from her understanding.
It's kind of confusing, but in summary, Fighting Techniques or other techniques are heaven-defying knowledge! They can bypass the barricade to mana since they only need the understanding of the particular subject!
Wow… this is amazing! I thought at the beginning that runes were everything, but it turns out I was wrong.
Wait… When was this technique created?
It's unknown, but the record was way back 50 years ago.
I see… So, there were masters living 50 years ago. Well, I kind of knew so of the histories of these books since I have read plenty of history books about their history.
It is said that 50 years ago, or even before, masters of a particular profession mysteriously disappeared. And because of that, the mastery of professions has drastically declined.
I wonder if it was connected to demons.
"I get it. But here's the problem. I can't gift you anymore. We have to wait for a day before I can gift again. And I think it's not unlimited since techniques are rare and what I gave you was the most common."
This also ans that techniques are sowhat limited. I an, techniques can't be easily learned. My system just defied that law.
It can take 5 years to learn a technique, but it's even just a small grasp of the whole. Practitioners still needed to fully understand it and improve their proficiency. It is also the sa with abilities.
"It's okay. I can handle this. I just need to try this on humans. What do you think of Rosellete? Can she help ?"
Why is she even asking that? Rosellete is like a loyal dog. But I'm not insulting her, it's just she is too crazy over Ellena. However, her aggressiveness was declining for a greater purpose.
I nodded to answer her question. And just after it, we continued our second purpose in coming into this place. Ellena finished the quest just in half an hour and decided to go back to the guild.
But on our way, we ran into eight pursuers.
Ugh… This is too la. They didn't even try to hide their presence and just barricaded Ellena. Are they new to this? They are just too stupid.
I assu they ca from that mysterious organization.
"Who are you?" Ellena asked, even though it's obvious.
But again… I was wrong. This ti, they seem to be normally hired, bandits. Where did the organization go?? Did they surrender while pursuing Ellena? I think it's impossible since these types of people in the underworld are sowhat prideful.
"Lord doesn't want you alive. You hindered his plan, so we need to kill you."
Again. This world is unreasonable sotis. Pursuers just disclosed information to their prey, as if they were too confident that they would leave the place safely.
I get it. It's okay to be confident, but they are just arrogant. And it made them ignorant.
Ellena just smiled at them and slowly unsheathed her sword.
"You know… I was looking for a chance to try so of the forms of the technique I just learned. But you saved my worries. I'll just try it right now."
Even with an intimidating gaze and words, the pursuers didn't budge. Instead, they also released a smile.
"You are too confident, the Masked Monster. We are different from that la organization that our Lord hired. We are better than what their reputation says."
"They even declined the order. I guess their confidence was just trampled. Too bad. It seems like they are scared of you."
That's what I say. Their pride was trampled, so they might want Ellena's head for their own satisfaction. But they must have misunderstood it. They don't even know how to put themselves in others' shoes?
Too bad, as well. They'll just beco Ellena's dummies to practice on.
"You talk too much as a professional.." Ellena aggressively retorted before disappearing from her position.
