The Reincarnated Assassin is a Genius Swordsman - [Author: Writing Ant]

Chapter 39

'Did I do it too fast?'

The moment he saw the footwork he'd felt exhilarated, so he reenacted it. He didn't think Rimmer would be so surprised by that.

'Well, I was also pretty confident in my footwork in my previous life.'

As an assassin, his might wasn't on par with a Master, but his footwork was one thing that didn't lose to a Master's.

To be surprised by those mere steps, humans are really pathetic. Back in devildom, the King of Essence created the 'Ice Flower Step', in which a single step could freeze an entire mountain and ocean...

'Ah, sure.'

Raon tapped away Wrath, who suddenly started boasting about himself.

"Ahem."

Clearing his throat, Rimmer turned around with his hands behind his back.

"Well, you certainly did well for your first time, but your posture is still lacking. The flow is fine, so pay attention to the forms. You can ask the other instructors questions, except for me."

"Understood."

Raon nodded and turned around. Certainly, he felt like he could do a lot better since it was his first time doing it.

"What!"

"W-we have to teach that?"

"I think he is better than me..."

The instructors shook their heads with long faces, brows furrowed until it looked like their eyebrows were reaching their cheeks.

After the River Footwork training, Martha left the training ground alongside with Camel.

"That footwork looked pretty decent."

Camel smiled while scratching his chin.

"It's suitable to serve as the basis for the footwork that the master will hand down to you. It would be better to learn it properly."

"I see."

Martha nodded lightly, walking towards the main building.

"My lady, did something happen?"

Camel felt like she was different from usual, so he walked right next to her.

"Haa..."

Martha, who was staying silent, turned her head with a frown.

"How difficult was that footwork to learn?"

"Hmm, it was basic footwork for sure, but it's not exactly easy to learn. The flow was rather complicated."

Camel closed his eyes for a moment, then opened them again.

"Since my lady is also talented in footwork, three days should be enough to understand its flow."

"Three days? Fuck..."

Martha shook her head with dumbfounded expressions.

"My lady?"

"Then, is it possible for a trainee to learn it at once?"

"A capable warrior would be able to copy it as soon as they saw it, but it's impossible for a trainee. They lack theory, knowledge, and experience. In short, their martial art is simply too shallow."
