Battle Harem of the Heavenly Sword

Chapter 53 Dominating Hearts And Souls 2

The delta position means to sweep a person's arms back and keep their feet together and straight. It generates forward motion and causes the falling body to increase in speed like a bullet. In movies from Earth, if a hero, spy or protagonist fell outside a plane, it was guaranteed he would go delta just to look like a badass.

Due to the arrays on the carriage, Hiro forgot that they were flying similar to how one forgets when on a plane. Now that the wind was rushing past his ears and the blood in his body was rushing all over the transmigrator could only scream.

The gryphon didn't notice him approaching. It only looked up when the beast heard Hiro's screams. The beast was a mixed monster with a body like a lion but had wings, talons and a head like an eagle. They were very territorial and voracious eaters if based on video games and anime.

- Alert: Insanity [E] Lvl 2 has suppressed the panic response of the host's autonomic nervous system -

The transmigrator felt his body calming down significantly. The body's autonomic nervous system was built upon the lessons of history. Both fear and survival mechanics were ingrained in one's DNA.

Training and preparation were what one used to overcome them. Yet even a skill of the lowest rank allowed Hiro to behave like a pro. Hiro noticed how powerful system skills were once again as he thought about his next actions.

- Alert: Tactics [D] Lvl 1 has activated, showing the host optimal action for survival. -

Hiro then saw a shadow moving in his vision, like a tutorial video, it looked like [Wrath of the Vengeful]'s skill prediction but instead of an enemy, the one leaving afterimages was the transmigrator.

The shadow showed itself pulling out [Blade of Mitsurugi] and invoking a skill to thrust himself into the gryphon's side. After damaging the gryphon the shadow then held on while the monster cried and tried to shake him off. After a few violent tumbles, the gryphon righted itself as it started heading towards the ground.

The beast probably intended to slam the shadow onto the ground. Hiro's apparition then pulled his sword and moved to reposition himself. The shadow mounted the gryphon like a horse and impaled the beast downwards into its neck.

The shadow then used the sword like a flight stick and guided the beast to a small valley where both of them crashed. After the crash, the vision ended.

'Damn, that was cool. This skill is really useful. Alright, let's get to it.'

[Tactics], one of the few skills Hiro managed to learn on his own. He got it when he spend four hours devising how to assault a goblin nest. The nest didn't lie in a cave like normal but looked like a city with short wooden walls and outposts.

Due to the nature of the position, it was impossible to kill all goblins quietly so after a long time of planning. Hiro ended up attacking at night with tricks and ambushes. He still almost died, and when he found close to twenty broken women, his resolve crumbled.

One of them grabbed him shouting, "WHY DIDN'T YOU COME EARLIER, YOU BASTARD! I WAS ABOUT TO BE MARRIED!" The sullied bride couldn't handle the shame of being ravaged by hundreds of monsters and threw herself over a cliff. Hiro vomited, cried and experienced nightmares for days due to the event.

He couldn't afford to stop though so even with his heart in tatters, the man continued murdering goblins without rest. When his heart grew numb, the transmigrator gained [Overdrive] as a result.

While [Tactics] failed to help out in that specific instance, it served as his mentor and guide in battles. It kinda felt like the system extended its help to him. The same holds true even now.

-Alert: Reality Invoked: [Steel blades bow down to no one], Skill [Strength Derived from Pride] activated! -

- Alert: [Mark of Vengeance] has been placed on Gryphon by the host, Mark will activate on the next confrontation. -

Hiro feeling increased power drew his weapon pointed it towards the monster's flank and roared. "[Straight Pierce]!" Unable to avoid him due to the sudden acceleration. The transmigrator slammed into the beast's side like a meteor, the blade plugged the wound so blood was not flowing out.

But the blade of course sliced the gryphon's insides despite not moving. Similar to the vision earlier, Hiro knew how the monster would behave so he hand on for dear life and tried to follow [Tactics] as much as he could.

The beast rolled, dived and did all sorts of aerial acrobatics to throw Hiro off. Luckily focusing only on holding his sword the transmigrator hung on for dear life.

- Alert: Sight Beyond Vision activated, Spirit vision syncing with Tactics. Guidelines for actions now will be generated -

"SYSTEM I FUCKING LOVE YOU!"

Originally trying to remember what he saw from the vision, glowing markers like games now lit up around the gryphon. These were the hand and foot holds the shadow used to maneuver and hand on. The guidelines significantly reduced the chances of Hiro making wrong actions diverging from the shadow.

Finding it easier, the transmigrator followed them and felt more confident in his movements. Eventually, just like the vision, the Gryphon righted itself and started gliding. There was less than a minute between the monster gliding before it dive-bombed the ground.

Knowing he had only a few moments, Hiro quickly moved around the flying beast's body and followed the guidelines to the letter. When he successfully turned his sword into a flight stick, he guided the monster to descend quickly.

Intending to crash to the ground, Hiro followed the guidelines to jump off at the optimal moment. Upon crashing the transmigrator did a combat roll and quickly brought his sword up to defeat his adversary.

Hiro thought about using [Strength Derived from Pride] to rearm one of his active realities, but as he only had a couple of rearms he wanted to save them.

Bringing his weapon to bear Hiro quickly used [Inspect] on the beast.

Unlike people, beasts do not have battle harem portions in their statuses, they only had basic stats and a few skills. Hiro who has been fighting with goblins non stop memorized and learned some lessons as he studied them.

Slightly damaged the gryphon shook its body as if to get rid of its nausea. It faced Hiro and shrieked while it stood up on its hind legs. With the removal of his sword from the earlier stab the monster's side now had a gaping hole from which blood dripped down.

"I'm sorry you fucker, but you aren't innocent either, sorry it has to come to this."
