Chapter 56 Delicious food from the sky?! ~Ask for a monthly ticket~)
From morning to afternoon, Jason practiced [Lunging] in the open space on the outskirts.
In the meantime, people from Hydra delivered a standard lunch for sixty people.
Jason ate for fifty people, and Alas ate for ten people.
Then, the two occupied two ends of the open space and completed their respective goals.
Bang!
Alas punched out, like the spray of a shotgun. Fifteen meters in front, within a 60° angle, the air flow roared past, and the grass flew and danced again.
The air flow subsided, and Alas frowned slightly as he looked at the destruction he had caused.
She was a little dissatisfied.
"The charging time can be ignored, but after expanding the covered area, the power has dropped a lot."
"really……"
"Am I still too weak?"
Alas subconsciously looked at the empty space with only one big tree and the surrounding areas being cleared.
She easily judged the gap between herself and Avant.
Avant holds a sword, and she can stick to three moves at most.
With Avant's bare hands, she was sure to kill Avant with one punch.
However, how could Avant, as the ‘Sword Master’, not hold a sword?
Or in other words, if she encounters an enemy who is good at using cold weapons and she makes a request like "please fight with bare hands", how can the other party agree?
"My fist is still not strong enough!"
"If you were like mom..."
Unconsciously, Alas began to recall his mother.
Her father had a variety of skills, but every time he was knocked to the ground by her mother's punch.
Especially the more gorgeous the moves, the more miserably they will fail.
There was no skill, just one punch, and her father fell to his knees.
At most, the posture of kneeling is different.
"How should I increase the power of my fist?"
Alas thought silently, and then she subconsciously looked at Jason.
At this moment, Jason is still familiar with the basics of [Lunging], various tricks, and passes. Jason has clearly memorized them, but it is not easy for his body to remember these tricks and passes.
This requires breathing and muscle coordination.
Jason is polishing it bit by bit.
Whoosh!
Another sword thrust out, this one fast and hard, but the muscles on his arm were not well controlled. Jason's palm shook and the sword flew out.
Snap!
The long sword fell to the ground.
During the practice from morning to now, Jason dropped the long sword countless times. Therefore, Jason walked over to it as usual, picked it up and continued practicing.
Alas had seen it before, but didn't think much about it at all.
But at this time, Alas's eyes lit up.
"To improve your fists, you must follow mom's instructions step by step."
"However, this does not prevent me from letting my opponent engage in unarmed combat with me!"
"Just... shoot down the opponent's weapon!"
"Right!"
"Dad seems to have taught me this technique, which is called..."
"Empty-handed!"
Alas thought, his eyes getting brighter and brighter.
As she thought about it, she moved her arms, hands, and all the muscles in her body for joy. Then, she imagined Avant as her opponent, slashing out at her with a sword.
Snap!
As soon as his hands were put together, there was a crisp sound, but the 'long sword' was faster.
However, Alas would not give up, and she began to recall in more detail what her father said at that time.
'Combat skills actually make up for talent.'
'Your mother's talent is strong, so she doesn't need skills, but my talent is average, so I must use more skills to face different enemies.'
'Those sword-wielders are actually very easy to deal with. You can catch their swords.'
'Can't catch it?'
'It doesn't matter, just break their swords!'
Break it!
Alas stood up straight again, imagining Avant's sword coming. This time she dodged sideways, and then punched out.
But the 'sword' did not break, but was slashed diagonally again.
'The sword can't be broken?'
'It's fine.'
'If you can't break it, just wait a moment. When your fist becomes harder, you can break it.'
‘Eh?’
'Are you going to break her now? She is indeed my daughter. She is so persistent. Just like when I first met your mother, my heartbeat made me know that this is the woman I love most in my life.
'
'Since we can't break the 'sword', let's wrap up the 'sword'!'
'Breathe, use the 'qi' of your breath to wrap it up!'
'Don't breathe through your nose or mouth, but breathe through your pores!'
'Then, gather them all!'
'Gather them into your hands!'
breathe.
breathe.
In her mind, her father's teachings became clearer and clearer, making Alas calm down quickly. She began to close her mouth and nose to breathe. She had practiced the [War Pattern Breathing Technique] that had been imprinted deep in her soul since she was a child, and she had almost no difficulty.
A small sublimation was completed at this moment.
call!
Hot breath spurted out from the pores of Alas' body.
Then, they gathered on Alas's hands.
The next moment, the gathered energy was thrown away by Alas.
It was thrown on Avant's 'sword'.
Although he only blocked the moment, Alas looked happy.
She seems to have succeeded!
Then, a clearer memory emerged.
'Don't be arrogant and complacent. I know thousands of such techniques, but when I faced your mother, I still got punched. Therefore, its existence is only to give you temporary convenience, not to let you rely on it. You
All I can rely on is your fist!'
'Of course, skills are not really useless.'
'When you reach a certain level...well, roughly when you can hear the breathing of all things, you can start to look for the 'breathing point', which is the 'breathing point' of any existence, and that is also the 'life point'. Find
There, and then hit it with all your strength, any existence, even a 'god', will be beaten to death with one punch!'
'Will Dad?'
'Of course Dad will.'
'Then why can't you beat mom?'
'That is the woman I love in my life, and I can't do it.'
Alas clearly remembers that when she was very young, and it was almost dusk, her father held her and walked on the country road, and even magicked her out of a popsicle, and then,
Raise your hand and punch.
then?
What happened next?
She seemed to have fallen asleep after eating a popsicle.
When I woke up, my father was being hung from a tree and beaten by my mother.
It seemed that he was blaming his father for not feeding him strange things.
Aren’t popsicles a very common snack?
However, that popsicle seems to be delicious, with a giant figure carved on it.
Her father also told her about the giant.
She always thought it was some kind of monster.
'That's not a giant.'
'That's...Titan.'
'It tastes very good.'
Before going to bed at night, her father, who had been beaten black and blue by his mother, quietly told her, with a mysterious smile on his face, that he would bring her back more delicious popsicles.
Unfortunately, before he could finish his words, his mother discovered him, knocked him down with a punch, and hung him on the big tree in the yard for three days.
"That popsicle is so delicious!"
Alas couldn't help but admire.
wrong!
Not a popsicle!
It’s thanks!
Thanks for the heads up Jason!
With Jason's talent, it definitely wouldn't take so long to practice [Lunging]. He must have deliberately delayed it for so long just to remind me of this.
Moreover, in order to worry about my self-esteem, he deliberately threw the sword from his hand again and again.
Jason is such a gentle man.
Alas thought silently in his heart.
Then, she shouted loudly at Jason——
"Thanks!"
Jason was startled.
Thanks?
what happened?
There was doubt in his heart, but Jason ignored it.
He was used to such incomprehensible words.
Something must have happened that he didn't know but was reasonable.
Since it is reasonable, it is necessary to exist, so why should he ask?
What's more, practicing the [Thrusting] in front of you is a must.
Thinking of this, Jason abandoned his distracting thoughts and stabbed out with his sword again.
And at the moment when the sword was thrust out, Jason suddenly felt that his brain was clearer than ever before. Not only did some things that he had not understood in the past began to become simple and easy to understand, but also some forgotten things began to be recalled. He even
I can remember the taste of braised pork when I was three years old.
Moreover, his body has also undergone some changes.
It was a strange change, but it was enough to excite him.
He seems to have better control of his muscles.
With this foundation, Jason quickly adjusted the strengthening of his shots, and the next moment——
Whoosh!
The sword was fast and swift, and it didn't miss.
Amidst the sharp sound of breaking through the air, words appeared in front of Jason's eyes.
[Stab judgment in progress...]
[The special method is being mastered and judged...]
【Judgment passed!】
[Master the basics of ‘thrusting’!]
[Thrust (Basic): A technique created by 'Sword Master' Avant based on the understanding of long spears in the military camp and some assassin schools' understanding of short swords and daggers; effect; when holding a sword weapon, consume some physical strength and perform it once
Agility +0.3 blessed attack.】
…
[Thrust] Just like Avant described.
But what Jason cares about is ‘special method mastery’!
Why ‘special way of mastering’?
Instead of normal practice mastery?
While Jason was still thinking, that 'blessing' state began to disappear quickly.
Instead, what appeared was——
【Satisfaction +10!】
【Satisfaction +10!】
【Satisfaction +10!】
[Excitement of eating +1]
…
A series of four messages appeared suddenly.
When learning [Shadow Invisibility] before, Jason, who showed his talent, died five times and his satiety level was only 58 points. However, at this moment, the satiety level increased to 88 points out of thin air. More importantly, the excitement of eating also increased.
Gained 1 point and reached 4 points.
"what happened?"
"Did I just eat some invisible 'food'?"
Jason clicked his lips subconsciously.
There is no taste on your taste buds?
Could it be that it bypassed the taste buds and went directly into my stomach?
But I didn’t eat the ‘food’, the ‘food’ went directly into my stomach. This is really incredible!
only……
How did this phenomenon occur?
Jason thought about such a surprise.
Alas on the side looked at Jason and sighed slightly in his heart.
Sure enough, it was because of me that Jason wasted so long.
My talent...
It’s really too bad!
but!
I will work hard!
I want to be stronger!
Alas clenched his fists and encouraged himself.
While Jason was thinking, in the single-family apartment, Logan's voice just fell——
"The 'Mask Man' is an immortal being. He is not only wise, but also very powerful. Especially his talent is outstanding. He is a genius in the true sense!"
"And, Emma, did you know?"
"He is right next to us, and you have seen him too!"
"It's... Sir Jason!"
"Is it unexpected? Is it surprising?"
Logan's childish voice tried to describe the 'masked man' as vividly as possible.
However, just as Logan finished speaking, Emma's body began to tremble violently.
The trembling this time was more shocking than any before.
That's no longer consumption!
besides……
fear!
It's like an ordinary person facing the fear of a predator at the top of the food chain.
Logan was stunned. Before Logan could react, Kratos beside him had already yelled.
"Doctor? Where is the doctor?"
Then, without waiting for the doctor outside the door to answer, Kratos pushed the door open and dragged the doctor in.
Although the five-year-old Kratos was only half the height of the doctor, the doctor was unable to resist after being dragged by Kratos. He felt like he was being dragged into the room by a cow.
"Leave it to me!"
"It's fine!"
"Don't worry!"
The doctor, who had been through too many experiences in one day, seemed to be somewhat used to it at this time. While comforting Kratos and Logan, he began to check Emma's status.
By this time Emma had returned to normal.
Just like he remembered.
What is going on?
Doubts appeared in the doctor's heart, and they naturally showed on his face.
This scene was seen by Logan and Kratos.
"Doctor, how is Emma?"
Logan asked with tears in his eyes unconsciously.
Danger!
Seeing Logan's tearful appearance, the doctor's heart was ringing with alarm bells.
He felt threatened.
It seemed like a 'wolf' was staring at him.
Involuntarily, the doctor took a step back.
Then, he bumped into Kratos.
Kratos remained motionless, but the doctor fell to the ground. He subconsciously raised his head and looked at Kratos.
He was obviously only a five-year-old child, but he was not as strong as a human being. Especially when the little face began to tighten, the doctor seemed to hear the wails of the gods.
Kratos lowered his head slightly and looked at the doctor in front of him.
"How's Emma?"
Kratos asked.
The voice was cold, but the clear night sky outside was——
Boom!
There was a thunderbolt out of thin air, and the bright light from the electric light shone on Kratos through the window. The doctor who originally wanted to get up fell to the ground.
The child adopted by the deputy leader is a monster!
Such a realization arose in his heart.
Then, he said very seriously and firmly:
"fine!"
"She must be fine!"
This is not a lie!
Emma's data at this moment shows that everything is really fine!
besides……
I just want to live a few more years.
The doctor comforted himself.
After hearing the doctor's words, Logan put away his tears, and Kratos's tight little face relaxed slightly.
The two wanted to ask more about Emma.
But, the next moment——
The two of them couldn't help but look outside the room.
