The World of SENSES: An Introvert's Journey as the Helper Begins.

Chapter 17

Kin, Clark, Yohei, and their team have left the city of Stolitsa. They walked along the main road to Tzami city. Despite this road is said to be dangerous, as far as Kin can see there are quite a lot of adventurers. The adventurers consist of small teams of three to four people spread out in all directions. Kin and his team, however, paid them little heed, focusing on their journey along the main road.

As they continued walking on the main road the sun started to dip below the horizon and the sky became orange. When the sun disappeared they entered the forest to conceal their tracks. Upon finding a suitable place to spend the night, Clark and Ken set up tents while Yohei, Huave, and Ria prepared dinner.

After dinner, Kin and Clark excused themselves and left their camp. They arrived somewhere that was quite far from their tent. Kin and Clark started doing practice as they usually did. This time, Kin practiced using a greatsword and began practicing the attack patterns taught by Clark. Kin and Clark thought they were far enough from the camp and Yohei and the others wouldn't know where they were. But it turned out they were wrong.

Yohei and Hauve followed them and saw the training they were doing. Yohei came out from some bush behind Clark. "Clark, Kin what are you doing?"

"Oh Yohei, are you following us?" Clark asked surprised.

"Yes. I'm sorry." Yohei replied. "I just want to make sure you both are ok."

"We're fine. As you can see right now I train Kin how to use a greatsword"

Kin swung his sword, spun around, and slashed once again in the same direction. Then he tried another pattern, and during this practice, Yohei watched Kin's every movement.

Yohei then comments about how Kin used his weapon. "Kin your movements are too stiff. Feel the change in weight as you swing your weapon. Follow it so you can deal more damage."

Kin listened to Yohei's explanation but he just stood still because he couldn't understand. After a while, he finally started to move, however, Kin's sword slipped from his grasp. Thankfully his sword didn't hit anyone.

Yohei shook his head and took out his ax. "Let me show you what I mean. Watch closely."

Yohei started to swing his ax. His movements were so fluid but still felt his strength in every movement. Clark noticed how Yohei used the ax, and he tried to imagine how it would be done with his greatsword. Meanwhile, Kin was just stunned to see how Yohei's move. Inspired, he changed his weapon from a greatsword to an ax and tried to copy Yohei's motion.

When Kin was about to mimic Yohei's movement, Yohei suddenly stopped and looked at Kin in disbelief. "You can use an ax? It's so unusual. How come a sword user, can use other weapons?"

Kin was puzzled by Yohei's observation. Clark then tried to clarify it. "For Kin, it's a little different. He can use all weapons including arrows, perhaps even magic. Possibly."

"I can use it, but I'm not sure I'm good at it. I just hope to be skilled enough to use every weapon." Kin added Clark's explanation.

"Wow, Interesting. Is there any disadvantage when not using a weapon you have not mastered yet?" Yohei asked, intrigued.

"I don't think so, but since I haven't used all the weapons there may be some exceptions. Right now, I'm just focusing on training with swords and greatswords. Just any weapons that Clark taught me." Kin replied.

"Then this isn't your first time training with Clark."

"Yes, he has been training me for one month. During that month he focused on teaching me how to use a sword, but now I asked him to start teaching me using a greatsword."
