Chapter 285 - Mark Of Birth (I) (2/2)
”I am we-”
”WRONG. You are not weak and I can say that your prowess is terrifying. It's not necessary you need to be strong to win. What you lack are awareness and a calculative mind.”
”Huh?”
”I keep seeing you in the battle as getting undecisive especially if you are being faced into a tight spot. You get to panic so quickly that I am not sure why you do that. Due to this, you can easily fail and will instead use the method of fighting brashly and empty-minded. You lack the capacity to calculate things with quick timing. It is a big loss as it can definitely boost your capability in a battle. You need to think about whether you attack, press on, or defend and do proper actions during that time.”
”I am doing that kind of thing?”
”Have you noticed it? Yes, you are doing a fatal error that would surely kill you in the process. Have you noticed the way Lina fights during the last mock battle inside the castle of Queen Tanya? Do you remember the time that Lina managed to counter your attack [Rainfall of Sirius]?”
”Yes. Ms. Lina performed it very well that I didn't expect her to do it like that to disrupt me.”
”[Rainfall of Sirius] is a troublesome skill as they can hit really bad and they are hard to dodge. But Lina easily managed to defeat you while you are using that skill, if it was strong, why did you lose?”
”Because I lack the capacity to do a quick timing?”
”That is one of the reasons, but the main reason why you lost on that fight is that you thought the enemy will not be able to counterattack while you are using the skill and you can easily defeat them. But Lina used her wits and managed to bypass that trouble you made on her and defeat you before you can unleash troublesome hits on her.”
”If that is the case, what can I do? I keep doing the training but nothing is happening to me! I need to get stronger!”
”No, you are plenty strong enough. You need to develop the ability to think about what to do next in quick timing. I prepared a simulation for you so that you can develop this ability much easier. We can't use the chance to fight against enemies as it is pretty dangerous to do especially since you need to confront your family, we need you to be perfectly healthy. Fighting against monsters might be the best method to do that but you don't need to do that.”
I pull out one blueprint and similar to any blueprint I used at appropriate times, this blueprint is something I made in purpose for training for agility, however, this isn't solely for training agility, this will allow Tina to develop what she was lacking without the need to fight against monsters or enemies. A safe shortcut if I say so myself.
”Materialize! Now, let's continue the training yesterday!”
And as I said that, a volley of arrows fly straight to Tina.
