/ CLANG! CLANG!/
" OOOOHHHH!"
The match between Sarah and Anna seemed to have filled the attention of everyone taking a look at the training ground, with that, I had a good opportunity to take a look at what it is I learned today. After Captain Martin and I had our sparring match, Captain Martin had to attend to a few things. With that, Sarah and Anna decided that they wanted to have a quick sparring match, so I moved over to where Ruby, Flare and Edmon were, and I quickly used the Spell that Angela gave me. With the 3 of them acting as a kind of shield for me, I was able to use the Spell without anyone noticing and before long, a textbox had instantly popped into my sights.

Spinning Slash Unlocked!
________________________________________________________________________________
Yeah... That sounds about right... I did spin during that last clash after all... What kind of Skill is though? I feel like the power of the spin was a bit different than normal... Like there was more torque to the turn that made it more powerful... I should just read the Skill description and see what it says. I quickly pressed on Spinning Slash to see what it said. A new textbox quickly opened.

Spinning Slash
A somewhat tricky Skill that requires a well-honed combat sense to make great use of. Spinning Slash, just as the name implies, is an attack that begins with a spinning motion, which is what makes it difficult to use, the starting motion is a gamble in and of itself, Dear User. However, to make up for that, is the power of the slash once you've been able to spin. The Skill makes the attack's output to go up by 7x the normal damage you would be able to do without the Skill, Dear User.

I see... So, it's a risky Skill, but to make up for it, the attack's power is magnified a bunch... I could see what the System was trying to get at... It's kind of like throwing out a head kick in a fight willy nilly. if it hits, you'll do more damage than a regular punch, but if you miss, you'll be out of position and most likely be hit with something way worse than if you were still in position to defend... It's definitely going to take a lot of practice to figure out when it'd be best to use it... But for now, I need to seal this Skill. It's too much of a risk to use right now.
" Did you see the name of the new Skill you learned?"
Ruby broke my train of thought... Seems she's curious, granted I would think she knows of the Skill at least somewhat, though maybe there's more than one Skill that has a starting motion that involves spinning? I guess I should ask?
" It's a Skill called Spinning Slash."
" Ah... That's a favorite of my Father."
" So, you've heard of it?"
" Heard of it? My Father forced me to learn it. It's a bit tricky at first, but once you get the timing down, it's an effective tool, you'd want to use it more against slow enemies or an enemy that wouldn't expect it."
Just like I thought, she knows of it, and she's even learned the Skill.
" Say, Ruby, are there other Skills that have a similar starting motion as Spinning Slash?"
" Hm? Yeah, there's about 6 that I know of, but I think there's even more, why do you ask?"
" I was just wondering, since you asked me what the Skill was called, I assumed there were other Skills like it."
