On the first day of training, Roy created a big scene for her.
He said it was to awaken her potential, but he didn't practice with herself as he had the night before. Instead, he simply threw a strange, sharp little knife at her and had it practice over there with a pre-prepared partner.
As for the training partner, it wasn't a normal person.
He had somehow found a strange puppet over two meters tall.
The puppet kept spinning, along with various sharp knives and pointed objects hanging from it, making it impossible to get close. After a long struggle, when Shiki chose to take the initiative, she still couldn't do anything about it. In just a quarter of an hour, she lost her ability to move.
"Is it really not working?"
Compared to the precarious situation Shiki was in below, Roy was merely observing the changes in her condition with seriousness.
Several attempts yielded no results as he expected. However, when he saw her defeat, he snapped his fingers, stopping the puppet.
According to the original plan, he shouldn't have stopped the puppet here because he hadn't pushed her into a true deadlock yet.
The arrival of such immense power is never without reason, especially in the case of Shiki's legendary Mystic Eyes of Death Perception.
To briefly explain the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception, everything originates from the Root. If there is a birth, there must be an end, which we refer to as death. The end of something is predetermined from the moment it is born. When something flows from its Root, its death has already been determined by the Root. If there were a pair of eyes capable of connecting to the Root and seeing the death of things, we would call them the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception.
This is a power that even the gods in myths do not possess.
Therefore, for Shiki to acquire it is difficult as hell.
In Kara no Kyoukai, without the death of SHIKI, Shiki would not have gained her most powerful weapon, the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception.
However, Roy could not let SHIKI die just for a pair of Mystic Eyes, even if those eyes were a miracle of the Root.
These past few days he had been trying to call out to Void Shiki, but she never responded to him. In order to help Shiki awaken her Mystic Eyes of Death Perception, he had no choice but to resort to this underhanded method.
Only by experiencing death can one have a chance to obtain the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception.
As long as he keeps Shiki hanging on the edge of life and death, he could stimulate her to awaken her Mystic Eyes of Death Perception through this external stimulus.
But if he were to take action himself, he couldn't bring himself to do it. So he hurried to Touko's place to have her custom-made self-regulating puppet equipped with weapons.
Fortunately, as a Grand Puppeteer, she had as many of these common puppets as she wanted. So Roy simply brought back several suitable puppets for training.
However, the results didn't seem impressive.
Although Shiki had been precariously hanging on the edge of danger, was this machine not enough for the so-called life-and-death struggle?
If that's the case, should he get a few more to try?
Though he thought that, Roy quickly stopped the puppet and swiftly jumped down from the high platform, lifting the injured Shiki and giving her the simplest treatment.
