Chapter 206: Training (II): The 13 (1/2)

The sequence to training with postures was really non-existent, Rezar had to improvise to get himself a beginning and an end, choosing to start from the ones he felt were a lot more easier before transitioning to what he would call the harder movements. However that did seem to work as Rezar quickly realized that thinking too much about a proper sequence for 13 individual stances was just too much. Depending on how you start and how you choose to end, the sequence was different, and with each difference, Rezar realized that the stances focused on a certain physical aspect.

Honestly it was like a dance, a weird one but a dance none the less that seemed to steeped in something ancient and primal, which shouldn't really be the case as this was just created. Rezar had to twist his body and move his feet swiftly, some times he had to plant himself as solidly as he could on the ground, and other times he had to move slowly, transitioning from swift to slow like some boat being rocked by gentle waves. But gentle waves could also be a precursor to a storm as there were moves that popped his joints to sometimes out rightly dislocating it, but he took it all in stride. He was a vampire after all and everything was working in his favor.

For a day of training these were very notable gains, and Rezar felt all the more stronger for it. He felt that with the proper training tools, he would be able to fully learn and increase his strength rapidly, even if he had to start all-over again from the ground up. Rezar shifted his attention from the system announcement and went back into the stances, some where harder than the others, an there were sequences to them that got progressively harder with each new stance. Rezar honestly felt like a wet cloth that was constantly being squeezed and twisted to get the water out, but in the end he would still by soggy.

It's honestly been a long time since he's had a chance to push himself as hard as this; hard as it might seem this was a welcome development. So he tried his best to enjoy it. His fist shot forwards in crisp movement, before turning into a palm that cost out slapped towards the ground as Rezar flipped over, his palm still facing downwards and not moving an inch or allowed to touch the ground. It took a lot concentration for him to learn that particular as he was supposed to control his body enough that gravity wouldn't be dragging him down.

And so he continued for a good right hours, pushing his current body to the limits, breaking last that limit and going forwards once again. His body changed with it and also grew, It at least proved something hadn't changed about Elysium; you grew stronger a little bit faster when your at the low levels. Plus his body was weird...vampires were dead creatures, and he was fully one of them. From what he's learned from Priest told him that a Vampire's strength didn't come from their physique, but rather their magic.

But in this case as he got stronger he could feel his muscles tensing, stretching, compacting and overall just getting stronger. It should be impossible for a vampire to achieve as much as he has, but his body didn't act like it was dead, it was very much alive, which explained why Gynaika and her Vampires could not even step a feet out under the sun, and why he felt comfortable under it. And he had an inkling suspicion what was responsible for his immunity, though he couldn't be sure yet.
