Episode 626: Principle of Stone Throwing

Hin, and when the noise cracks the air delicately, the stone drawing the beautiful parabola hits the tree target, Gatsun, and makes a noise.

"Okay, I hit it!

"Dad, wow!

I can't help but stare at the artisan who is happy to shake up his fist and at the child, the man, who shines his eyes.

A sight like some competition is played out behind a leather street workshop.

◇ ◇ ◇ ◇ ◇

The motivation was to consider the training content of the defense supported by Jilboa.

"Stone throwing means stone throwing? Do you have any tools?

Sarah questioned the item of procuring and training cane throwers (staff slings).

If you ask me, it is a stone's throw. I'm not sure what a wand stone thrower is, but as much as picking up and throwing stones around it, even kids should be able to do it.

Kilik, however, differed from it.

"No, because people in the city won't have the experience of throwing stones. You can't use Sarah as a benchmark."

Indeed, most craftsmen were born and raised in the city, and they do not play sports.

"Can you give me a hand?"

When I asked a couple of craftsmen who were nearby to do a stone throw against the wall on vacant land, I found out Kilik was right.

First of all, I haven't got a grip on the stone. There is no form. I don't have any shoulders. I haven't had a follow through.

Speaking of which, you've never stoned a city boy.

Ask Sarah, rural kids throwing stones at birds and beasts razing the fields was a popular play.

Sarah didn't do much stone throwing because she learned to bow early on, but still much better than the craftsmen.

"This needs tools."

It's faster to train an adult to make tools than to wait to reach a satisfactory level of skill.

Kilik said he had a small amount of gear for the Sword Tooth Corps, so he decided to ask them to bring a cane stone thrower.

◇ ◇ ◇ ◇ ◇

"Is this a cane thrower?"

They are simple.

One of the bars, longer than a person's height, has a shallow bag to stone with a rope. That's all.

"How do you use this?

"Just put a stone in the bag, shake the stick, shake it down."

Hear and understand a brief explanation of Kilik.

In short, it's the same behavior as flying the weight of a fishing rod.

I guess I'll earn centrifugal power with my stick reach and fly the stones far away.

"Do you want to try?

Kilik prompts me to move to the vacant land.

"This is how I tie a string around my neck during the march, but that kind of detail would be nice. When attacking, put a stone on it and shake it down!

At the same time as the hanging voice, the placed tree target was smashed and scattered.

The wand stone thrower that Kilik gently shook down while explaining was foolish speed and destructive.

Hiccup, no cancer! and I feel like the sound of flying and destroying sounded at the same time.

"... what is this"

Kilik stopped by as he groaned, "So-so?"

"You're close to being targeted now. It won't hit a great monster opponent, and it won't work on a big guy, but it's useful to fly an oil kettle, so the axe spear soldiers, including myself, are trained all the way."

They say the motion of using both hands to shake down is similar to the motion of shaking down an axe spear, and throwing oil at a monster opponent vulnerable to flames because both hands can fly something heavy.

"You can't use it all over the city. It will be a fire. No, I don't think it's time to splash the chemicals that process the leather."

Leather streets also have dramatic drugs for processing monster skins.

The damage would be considerable if liquid drama and the like were applied where the defense against the stone was consolidated and pushed over.

Tools like a fail-safe lacrosse stick, just with a small bag on one of the long sticks, have come to look like a terrible weapon to me.

Watching Kilik's stick swing down, I noticed that the scale is the difference between the arm part of a stone thrower (Trevishet), a medieval siege weapon I used to see on a TV show, and the principle of structure and operation is the same.

"It's not human."

Just sticks, ropes and stones make a terrible weapon.

I'm trying to get the craftsmen to train me in the same hole.

◇ ◇ ◇ ◇ ◇

"But there may be people who don't want to do this because they're scared"

As Sarah worries, the craftsmen are basically intolerant of every absurdity.

Even evacuation training hardens your body when you touch raw violence.

"Do we have to play to get rid of resistance first"

"Play?"

"Make it a break entertainment. Create a place to play and give out prizes."

Guys love to play target games from kids to adults.

This is like instinct, so I can't help it.

Make a cane stone thrower and a target, set the rules and make it a competition.

◇ ◇ ◇ ◇ ◇

As a result, targeting games using cane throwers are now prevalent in workshops.

Rather than simply swinging it down, it varies from those who make improvements to the operation (form), such as rotating it overhead and then swinging it down to increase the throwing speed, to those who scrape the stones round and bring mystone bullets.

Some of them came out saying they wanted to have their cane stone throwers, etc., so they rushed to build a weapons control warehouse.

Exactly, it doesn't taste good to take a weapon out of a leather street.

"Well, I hope it sounds fun"

It's a fashion I set myself up with, but watching the artisan families seem like they're having fun makes me seem like a hell of a bad guy.

Still, I hope this leads to some power to protect them.
