Vorpal Rabbit and Fortress Uncle

Episode 674: Leave it to the Flow

Talka explains why he came here while dismantling the "Thirsty Veritaine" that Toka crushed.

"I see, are you passive?" Please leave it to me, because I look like a teacher. "

I apologize for the sudden request, but Toka accepted it with pleasure.

Is it realistic to talk about a teacher? She must have been of the right kind of martial artist.

"But, didn't Toka have a [passive] skill?" Can you really teach me? "

It was a stretching talker, but Letty turned her gaze toward it.

Torka has developed several behavioral skills, including [walking] skills. It looked like my [Passive] skill was also level 80.

“It's okay, the basic movements will stay the same.”

Lettie's pointing was strong, and Toka turned back to me.

"For now, I'll teach you a theory or a way of thinking. The most important thing to be aware of is that passivity is not an avoidance.”

In the beginning, Toka's passive lecture begins with a lecture in the classroom. Lettie and Amy were lining up next to me, listening together.

"Dodging means not being attacked by the enemy." Passive is the movement after being attacked. It's not how you avoid it, it's how you use it. ”

I see?

The explanation of Toka is easy to understand.

In terms of evasive action, Chiffon is the best in the [Shiraku-an], but Toka's army has risen in passivity. By the way, Migaige is evasive, and Amy is defensive. Letty was a discarded Special Attack type.

That's right, Reggie-san, hit me.

"Yeah..."

Suddenly, Toka stands up in front of me.

However, even though it is not a human combat area, it is distracting to hit my people.

“Okay, I'll do my best.”

"Wait, I didn't tell Letty--"

Turned into a confused me, Letty made a fist with a lively expression. While Toka gave a surprised expression, she pounded her fist without hesitation.

Woah!

"--Ohhh"

"Ohhhh!?"

Letty's sharp fist pierced Toka's chest. However, I could not hear the beating I had expected, and Letty fell down with Torka in amazement.

In addition, Torka does not kill the momentum that falls from her back, but spins backwards and stands up shaking her legs. All that was left was Letty lying on the ground.

Well, that's how it feels.

I-I see?

Since it is not a human combat area, it does not cause any damage. That said, if I hit Letty with my arm, I should get the knockback I deserve.

But in reality, lettie was in a dilemma.

Ledge-san, do you know what you just did?

"I paralyzed Letty's fist.... no, you got it. After accepting it, did you parry it?"

After all, it was an instant, so I'm not very confident. But Toka nodded with a face that said it was enough.

"It's pretty much around here." Just now I missed the shock while holding on to Letty's fist. And then she collapsed, and with her help she ran away. "

"I see...?"

Grabbing Letty's hand as she rises, Torka slowly recreates the sequence of moves she made earlier.

Letty's fist jumps and Toka catches it in the middle of her chest. At that time, the damage - this time, the knockback - had certainly occurred.

“The important thing is to let yourself be shocked. If you move in the same direction as the speed of the impact, the position will remain relatively unchanged and no collision will occur. In other words, no damage is done.”

Haha, I understand somehow.

Toka cushions the damage from Letty's fist by moving herself backwards. Lettie lost the target to be grasped and collapsed in momentum, while Torka's position remained the same.

"This is the basis of passivity. I think it's easier to understand when you're aware that you're moving with the impact, rather than letting the impact take you.”

"Hmm... Okay, Amy, hit me a little bit."

Dr. Toka's explanation is easy to understand.

I turn to Amy with the theory I've just been taught.

Is that okay?

"Come on!"

Well then--

Boon, the sound of cutting off the wind. At the same time, a white, sharp-shaped fist was approaching.

- Well, isn't this a bit bad?

That way, Amy's hypervelocity blows into her abdomen faster than her thoughts.

Haha!?

It was a heavy blow echoing through Zudon and the bottom of his stomach. I feel like my lungs have collapsed and all the air has been exhaled.

My vision spun around, and I crashed into the trunk of a tree behind me.

Ledge-san!?

Letty rushed over in a hurry and reached out. I stuck to it and cursed my shortcomings as I stood up.

You didn't have to ask Amy, who had the best fist in the [Shiraku-an]. No matter what I thought, it wasn't a good time for a passive novice to take a hit.

"Ahaha. Try to get hit by the" Gluttonous Snake "first." When you're able to do that, you'll feel like you're aiming for the "Levalen of Phagocytosis", and finally the "Valentine of Thirst". "

I think bulimic snakes are pretty good, too.

Toka's proposed practitioners were native creatures living in the [Misty Forest of the Odd Dragon]. In other words, all three species are the same race, and they have grown up with their larvae, adults, and senile bodies.

"Well, Mr. Ledge will improve quickly." If you set up a tent, you can practice safely. ”

For the time being, there's only practice.

Follow your teacher's instructions and I'll build a tent a little further away from the nest in Verrittain.

Since the Varlitein was the boss, of course there were only three Varlenes at the same time. However, I could find the Ravaging Snake just by walking appropriately.

It is a protozoan creature that looks more like a big caterpillar than a snake with black mossy hair.

"Hey, come on, Don!"

Confront the Ravaging Snake within the Tent.

I had no weapons, and my armor was heavy, so I took it off. Instead, they wore white clothes with the original equipment.

When I open my hands, a ferocious snake bursts in.

I see, it's a clear move.

Well, well, well.

I grabbed the bulimic snake that jumped into my chest and fell backwards. However, the serpent's lunge was faster and damaged.

Sounds good. Passive 10 abilities were enough to do no damage.

It's quite Sivia, isn't it?

"Instead of moving after watching the movement of the other person, you move while watching. And don't hesitate when you fall down. Because it doesn't take terrain damage anyway."

"All right, next."

Continue the battle against the bulimic snake, taking advice from Toka, who stands by her side.

Originally a militant (active) tempered bully, the snake will strike hard even if I don't attack at all. Even if it takes some damage, the tent will heal quickly, so there is no danger.

Thanks to an ideal partner who is enthusiastic, it is possible to passively escape the shock immediately.

"Hey!"

She collapsed backwards and missed the impact as she received a bulimic serpent's lunge. Unable to dissipate the overwhelming momentum, the bulimic snake flew in an unknown direction.

"It feels good, doesn't it? It's stabilizing a lot.”

No, you're a good teacher, aren't you?

Having said that, Toka nodded with a slightly illuminated face, but immediately took it for granted. She has a certain pride in teaching her students as a teacher's deputy every day.

"Hmm, it's kind of a disturbing atmosphere..."

"Let's just mix it up, too."

That's because Letty can't think of difficult things while fighting.

In the tent, Amy and Letty are watching us and talking about something. Both of you heard Toka's story with interest, but it doesn't seem like you're going to put it into your combat style.

In the first place, Amy was the founder of [Kagami Style], which returned the impact to the opponent, and Letty was probably evasive.

"Well, it looks like Ledge's training partner is just a native creature." It's not going to be that weird. ”

I don't know.

Looking at what they were talking about, Toka suddenly shook her sword and defeated the bulimic snake she had been practicing with.

"Snake!?"

"Well then, Mr. Ledge... we'll work together now."

Stunned by the unexpected exit of the snake, the toka with the sword in the sheath stood in front of her. She put her hands out and was ready to fight.

"Attacks as monotonous and easy to read as bulimic snakes are rare." The Leviathan is even more troublesome. Before you do that, please get used to all kinds of attacks from all directions. "

Huh?

Torka moves his back and fingers while turning fast. I don't understand everything she has to say, but she's the only one who says it, so I think it's the training I need.

"This is only a combo, nothing else." Well, then-- "

The next moment Toka separated her words, she disappeared.

"What!?"

For a moment I was surprised, but I was devoured by a strong thrust from below.

What I saw as I blew it was a toka with a full smile on its face. I sank myself in an instant and got out of my sight. I closed the distance at once and put my shoulders in the momentum. It was just the impact that lifted my body.

"I don't have time to be alarmed." Please be passive even in the air. "

Huh?

Tong, lightly kicking the trunk of the tree, the toka flies. Turning the knob, she patted me on the chest.

"Haha!?"

Just that gives me the illusion that gravity has multiplied a few times. Instantly slammed into the ground and struck her in the back. The soft humus seems to be concrete.

"I'm sorry, I'm not very good at body surgery."

"You're kidding me..."

I staggered and stood up.

Toka stood with a smile on her face, not disturbing her breath.

She must not have mastered the < Melee > skill. In other words, all of this movement is real and perceptive to her.

What kind of martial arts does Toka do?

"It's a little ancient martial arts with a little history." What I'm good at is swordsmanship, but I like ninjutsu, cane, dagger, body, aikido, judo, karate, Shaolin, Taekwondo, Sistema, Sabat, boxing. Well, that's it, and much more. We take everything and we use it as a weapon. ”

"You're such a jerk..."

At most, I imagined the kendo field in the town, but it's a dozen times more authentic or more majestic.

Lettie and the others were suddenly surprised by Toka's unusual movements, so they stood up and looked at us.

For now, as a handicap, let's just do it with one bare arm.

Didn't you defeat the Varlitein just now?

To my question, Toka only laughs with a laugh.

She turns her right hand towards me and breaks her finger.

"... I see. Please keep your hands soft."

I'll be gentle enough to deal with the gatekeepers.

I can't shred the LP, but this is a serious fight. With that in mind, he rushes out vigorously.

Toka greets me without breaking her smile.

"Gwaaaaa!"

That way, I could easily dance through the heavens and fall to the earth.
