My Own Path: The Red Phoenix

Ch 35 – Training Continues

With a very very hard struggle, Claude was finally able to bake Grey Wolf meat, although his movements were slow as much as Claude could properly roast.

It didn't take long, the distinctive smell of grilled meat filled Claude's smell, with Claude's potluck seasoning beginning to serve the ripe meat.

The roast was ready to eat not long after which Ashura came over.

“Oh you're done, it's not bad you get used to yourself quickly” Ashura chuckles.

Ashura then sat down, preparing to eat the meat that had been served, before Claude interrupted.

“Eh uncle, that is my ration, your ration is next to it again” Claude tried as soon as possible to immediately take the roast meat that was in front of Ashura.

“Heh little boy, if you want to repay me at least you should remember your own condition” Ashura immediately take the delicious looking meat and go away.

Indeed the cooked meat Claude separated in two different containers, the meat in the container that first Claude cooked with a heart – liver plus the right seasoning, the, Claude sure it feels very delicious of course the first container special ration part of him.

While the meat in the second container was rations from Ashura, which Claude deliberately cooked a bit charred, with the seasoning alone, Claude intended to repay Ashura's actions by giving him a bad meal.

However what power before Claude finished preparing the entire meal, Ashura had already come and picked up the meat in the first container, unfortunately again because of his very slow movements, Ashura had already come and picked up the meat in the first container, Claude had to let his flesh be taken right in front of his eyes.

“My side !!”

Ashura doesn't care about Claude, he's fun to enjoy the roast that feels is the best roast that Ashura ever ate “So you're really talented to be a chef, even with your limitations you can still bake good meat” Ashura raised her thumb towards Claude.

“Fuck!!” Claude sneered softly ‘Awas alone someday I will reply you uncle’ in the middle of – middle of his thinking Claude trying to put the grilled meat ‘not tasty’ into his mouth.

After the lunch drama ended, Claude approached Ashura.

“Uncle's Soul Crystal from Grey Wolf's body was” Claude gave three Soul crystals level two from Grey Wolf's body.

“Oh ok” Ashura received the Crystal Soul without saying – stale, “Now we continue your practice, now you will learn the basic movement – Assassin, follow me” Ashura then walk away from Claude.

Whereas Claude he was caught unprepared with Ashura's attitude, in Claude's mind he suspected Ashura's response would be the same as his uncle's, who would give Soul Crystals to him, because he himself defeated the Grey Wolf.

But uncle Ashura did not even blink when he took the Crystal Soul from Claude's hand.

“What are you doing, let's follow me” after a while Ashura realizes Claude is not coming after her.

“Ah yes uncle, I will come” Claude then walk towards Ashura, of course Claude moves very slowly, ‘Well I have to get used to, he is not uncle Ashura, he is, it is clear that his nature must also be different’ Claude is trying to understand the situation.

“Ok here alone” Ashura determine the training ground and then Claude comes following.

“Now I will teach you the incision movement that Assassin has, this movement has many variations, depending on how fast you play your wrist as much as that is the variety of attacks that you can do for example like this”

Then Ashura approached a tree and made one hand swing motion with several incisions with her Dagger.

“This fantasy also depends on our body position, whether it's standing, squatting, lying down, or running an Assassin can do other incision variations”

“But when attacking also should not just attack, still we as Assassins are required to attack with precision, corner the target, even finish the target as fast as possible”

“You understand I mean”

“Ya” Claude nods – nods his head “Uncle, why should we learn basic techniques if there is an ability technique (Skill), should I not just learn the skill to become a great Assassin?”

“Now my question is, why did you learn the basic techniques of archery?”

Claude pondered for a moment, “Hmm, to learn the foundation of a skill using a weapon” Claude muttered softly, “I understand uncle!” Claude caught the point of Ashura's question.

“It is good if you understand, as you said earlier, the basic techniques are there to build the foundation, the higher your mastery of basic techniques, the better the foundation you make, the better, and when you learn a skill you will quickly understand it is not even impossible if you can create your own unique skill”

“Ohh .. ok uncle”

“Good, no more questions”

“There uncle” Claude replied quickly.

“What else?”

“I want to ask, what is the function of this Armor I wear, what is the benefit of me wearing this torturous Armor” Claude still does not accept with the fraud Ashura committed against him.

Now at least Claude should know what the usefulness of the Armor was attached to his body.

“You still think about it turns out, well will tell, as you feel this Armor has a weight that weighs on your body, with this weight inevitably your body is forced to adapt is not it?”

“During that adaptation process, the – muscles in your body will develop rapidly, of course the strength that will be obtained later will also multiply with a short time, plus when you can release the Armor, the, you can imagine how light and fast you'll move, right?”

Hearing Ashura's explanation, Claude fell silent, imagining what Ashura said, Claude inevitably admitted it, now that he had slightly lowered his anger, Claude managed to understand the implications of wearing this Mendelth set Armor.

“Additional, this Armor has its own level in its weight, all of it is adapted to the realm that its user belongs to, so this Armor will force the user to quickly reach the top of the realm he has before then the user can surpass his realm”

“In short, if you can move freely using this Armor, then you are ready to break through the next realm, at that very moment you can release this Mendelth Set Armor”

“But if you want to continue wearing it, you can re-inject your Martial Spirit just like before, and the Mendelth Armor set will return to the heavy”

“As for the maximum realm that can be obtained is the Peak Master realm, more than that, this Armor is useless” Ashura this time explained in detail about the Mendelth set Armor, hoping Claude can understand.

“Oh, thank you uncle” said Claude briefly and immediately moved away and started practicing incisions.

Claude was too embarrassed by the swearing he had complained about, having realized that what Ashura was doing was the best for him, and the explanation of Ashura was also quite reasonable and accepted by Claude's logic.

So now all Claude can do is train hard, round his resolve back.

Not feeling the time passed quickly, the afternoon changed, and the night was approaching, in the corner of the forest Claude was still trying to swing his Dagger, his posture had been shaky from earlier, and his posture had been shaky, even mangalir sweat soaked his entire body.

“What are you doing, stand up straight!!”

“Mana horse – your strong horse, if this is how you will be quickly killed your enemy” Ashura knocked – to Claude's feet so Claude lost his balance and fell

“Wake up!!” back Ashura shouted to Claude.

Ashura clearly tightens up Claude's training, Ashura wants to see how far the installment boy goes and often complains of this being able to hold up when his training is more suppressed.

Claude felt the same way, he knew Ashura was increasing the intensity of his training, and Claude accepted without much complaint, because Claude knew that was the best thing for him, and what he needs most right now.

Seeing that Claude did not protest or complain, and just accept all his treatment, Ashura smiled ‘Good, it turns out mentally already at this stage, he can distinguish where the time complains and where the time to seriously’

“Mana swing!!”

“Add more speed!!”

“You are an Assassin, not a cook”

“Add more power, you won't hurt anything with a swing like that!!”

“You play Dagger instead of sword, where is your wrist!!”

“What's so fast your energy, have you cape”

Ashura continued to provide input and direction, whenever Claude made the wrong move, immediately Ashura reprimanded.

From this series of exercises, Ashura was amazed to see Claude who could restore again and again his concentration that had weakened, as evidenced by Ashura's spoken direction, Claude would immediately improve his movements.

While losing his concentration was also within Ashura's expectations, with such a degree of exhaustion, it was already magical for Claude who could follow all Ashura's directions.

“Ok will be enough, today's training ends here, we continue again tomorrow” Ashura saw the sky that began to darken and Ashura ended the training session today.

Hearing Ashura's orders, Claude immediately threw his body to the ground, with an irregular breath Claude rested his body.

“For now, you rest your body, and later tonight you continue your training by absorbing this Crystal Soul” Ashura cast one level two Crystal Soul, which is none other than Grey Wolf's Crystal Soul.

Claude received the Soul Crystal and then grasped it, Claude was too tired to get up.

Moments later Claude began to realize that a pungent odor was coming from his body, so Claude realized that his body was now filled with his own sweat.

Claude was relieved for a while, but Claude immediately frowned, “Uncle you're still there aren't you?” Claude immediately called Ashura.

“Hmm what's up?”

“Uncle how do I shower?” Claude tried to sit down and face Ashura.

“He he” Ashura did not answer just a ignorant smile.
