Chapter 97: System Training. (1/2)

[Preparing training sequence: Mind Training]

Gray's eyes widened as the scenery sudden changed once more.

There he stood in a large blank white room. Ahead of him a shadowy figure could be seen.

Gray took a step forward in surprise and the shadow did the same.

He raised his hand and so did the shadow.

It was mimicking every move he was making.

Surprised, Gray turned to the system orb which had remained in the same spot before asking.

”What is this?”

[A training sequence I have prepared.]

[The User said that he desired training.]

[This training was created to improve technique and gain better fighting experience.]

[No XP will be awarded for training here, however the user may unlock Martial Art or Weapon Masteries from the shop to use whilst also gaining a deeper understanding of his power and body.]

”I take it you think this will make me grow stronger?”

[That is correct. In the off chance that the user is not able to utilize his skill and must rely on pause, having martial arts available or weapon masteries would be very beneficial.]

”Will you still be able to synchronize with the book while I train?”

[Affirmative, I will continue with the synchronisation in the background.]

[Is the user ready?]

Gray gave it a short thought. The system was completely correct. He didn't have any specific fighting style, nor did he know the best and proper way to use the weapons.

All he would do is just attack and parry based on instinct. He'd never taken the time to train and actually think of ways to improve his fighting style.

Did he even have a fighting style? It was just pause and overpower as far as he remembered.

But even he knew this style wouldn't work forever. The strength of the opponents he'd encounter would only increase from now on.

Perhaps he'd be able to find a proper fighting style from this training.

”Yes, start it.” He said.

[Initiating training sequence.]

Inside of a store, a zombie could be seen staggering around in search of a prey. Based on it's movements it was clear as day that it had no idea what it was doing.

Zombie's were mindless husks of what was once a human. They were just corpses which could move.

That was the mindset Violet had and convinced herself to believe.

*Stab*

*Slash*

A knife which had flown out of Violet's hand suddenly pierced into the neck of a nearby zombie, it proceeded to slash its neck off of its head in the following instant.

Now that the path was clear inside of the store, she quietly rushed through, doing everything she could to not alert the zombies nearby.

The stench coming from the corpses was horrible.

There were many zombies and half eaten corpses laying around the store but they didn't bother her.

She had more important things to worry about as of the moment, after all.

During her silent rush, she supplied herself with anything she deemed would be useful and anything which was on the list of the things they needed.

She placed them all on the large backpack which was on her back.

Whilst on her scavenge hunt, she could hear a lot of noises coming from outside. Explosions, gunshots, people fighting.

The chaos which had calmed down previously had returned, and this time it was stronger than ever.

”I have to hurry… They're all waiting for me… And the house could get attacked at any given moment… I still don't trust that princess…” She muttered to herself.
