Child of Destiny

Chapter 940 The Jade Kirin Scripture (Part 1)

...…

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

A series of wind-splitting sounds could be heard as a group of players arrived at the battlefield where Leonard and the others were fighting.

"It looks like we are a bit late. It already started," said Lawless when he saw the battle up ahead of them.

He squinted his eyes for a moment and saw that the opponent that the others currently had possessed an astronomical amount of Health. "But it seems like we didn't miss everything."

"Let's go!" he then urged the three accompanying him to join the rest.

Swoosh!

Hearing the rushing sound coming from a distance, Black Hand and the rest couldn't help but put their guard further up, getting ready for an ambush. But they immediately relaxed a little when they saw that the group coming at them was Lawless, Faker, Zero, and Seven.

The four slaughtered all of the fallen knights on their path as they made their way to the group.

"You're finally here," the first one to greet them was Cloe followed by Black Hand and then the rest.

"What is the situation? And where is Brother Sh-… I mean Sickarius and the others?" asked Lawless as got in position alongside the other three.

"That guy over there is one of the generals of the army. He is a very tough guy. He has an unbelievable defense and a powerful offensive power," answered Black Hand as he was the one who was currently in the commanding position.

The rest were currently busy executing his orders, so they didn't have the time to reply to Lawless at the moment.

Black Hand paused for a moment before continuing. "As for Sickarius and the rest, they are currently fighting another general in another location. Their opponent is supposedly a marksman, an archer to be exact."

"And it seems like we have to defeat this guy that archer to force the real boss to make their appearance," he added before shouting at the others. "It is coming again! Brace yourselves on impact!"

Lawless and the other three, who just joined them, were slightly taken aback at the sudden shout. But at the same time, they quickly complied.

It was then they saw Cloe raise her staff in the air, summoning a huge translucent barrier around the group.

At the same time, Lawless also saw Nel swing his iron mace in their direction.

Boom!

Then a powerful force was created right after those actions. The shockwave flew straight to the group, obliterating everything in their path.

Fortunately, the barrier that Cloe had summoned negated most of the impact, making them survive that ordeal. But at the same time, Lawless and the others felt an intense tremor in the ground and forcing them to have an unsteady footing.

When everything was over, Lawless couldn't help but look at Nel solemnly. "It is indeed a powerful attack."

"It is still fine. He can only use it once every 5% of his health bar is lost," said Black Hand after raising his staff and casting a few Heals to Owen and Leonard who were currently fighting Nel.

After that, he turned to Lawless and the others. "Anyways, we also have to send a few people to the other group. Given the strength that this guy had, it shouldn't be strange for the other guy to be on a similar level."

"Right!" responded Lawless solemnly.

"Given that we need to send the fastest people over there, Faker and Zero should be perfect for the role," said Black Hand before adding a little. "And since their opponent over there is a marksman, the two of them can only be our choice."

He took another pause to look at Lawless. "As for your job, care to help those two in the frontlines? They may be doing a good job on the surface, but they are actually enduring the most pressure at the moment."

"Seven can help us fend off the remaining fallen knights. That guy Chaotic Luck is also about to finish restoring his Mana Pool back to full, so he can summon a few more Solaris Soldiers later," he added as he replenished the buffs cast on the others.

"Sounds good to me," said Lawless as he quickly sprung into action.

He quickly activated the bloodline power of his special class and headed over to the frontline to give Leonard and Owen a helping hand.

"Then we are also going," said Faker after looking at the coordinates that Shin had sent on the party chat channel.

"Alright!" said Zero before also leaving the formation.

Naturally, those two didn't forget to clear a few more fallen knights along the way as well as dealing some significant damage to Nel.

*******

Boom!

Bang! Bang!

Swoosh!

In the meantime, Arthur couldn't help but look at Shin in the distance with a strange gaze. It was not because Shin had done something outrageous like the one earlier, but because of the current style that he was using.

Arthur already had an idea that Shin was trying to familiarize himself with his current style while he was in the state of Reality Manifestation, especially when he saw Shin trying a couple of moves that seemed to be inspired by his Mentalism Techniques.

He also knew that Shin was more proficient using his Martial Arts when he was inside the game. It was mostly because he had suitable swordsmanship to complement that style and perfect energies to properly support it.

But it was a little different when it came to his Class Fighting Style. Unlike Arthur who purposely created the series of skills under his Class Fighting Style based on his Martial Arts, Shin created his set of skills out of whim.

Or at least, that was what he heard.

Shin created that sword-drawing skill after a sudden thought in his mind together with the current circumstance that he had during that time.

These were the reasons why Arthur believed that Shin would be having a hard time using his Class Fighting Style Skills when in the state of Reality Manifestation. Shin didn't have the set of skills or techniques from the real world to complement his sword-drawing art inside the game.

Or at least, that was how it was supposed to be.

But at this current moment, Arthur was no longer sure if it was really the case. It was because what he was currently witnessing was very different from what he was expecting.

"Just what did this bastard do?"

...

Shin was still in a strange trance when he was fighting Caelum. And during their battle, discovered something strange. The more he fought, the more natural his movements became.

Of course, it was a natural occurrence since he was trying to get used to his current style as he continued to use it.

Even though he couldn't showcase its full potential when he was in the state of Reality Manifestation, he still used this style for quite some time inside the game, so it was natural for him to achieve such a result.

But as the battle progressed and as he became more accustomed to his current style, the stranger he felt.

Instead of 'finding' suitable swordsmanship, it felt more like he was 'remembering' something.

He was not entirely sure about it, but at least that was what he felt at the moment.

Aside from that, he also discovered something about the 'Jade Kirin Scripture'.

At first, it was supposedly a Mentalism Method that would help him suppress the 'demon' within the 'seed of hatred'. It also carried a calming technique that could keep his mentality in check and tell him whether he was in the right state of mind when whenever the 'seed' showed some signs of getting out of control.

Then it became a method that would help him wield both his Martial Arts and Mentalism at the same time. Even though it was somewhat vague, it also showed him the potential of being able to fuse the two disciplines together.

A little later, it also helped him and Grandmaster Benn linked the four styles of the 'Four Symbol Scripture' more smoothly. It was also the major reason why Shin was able to become very proficient in using the Mentalism Runes during the battle.

And earlier, he discovered that the Energy Circulation Method that it had was able to convert the energies that he had into the most suitable energy that he needed for a particular move.

And then, at this very moment, Shin learned that this Mentalism Method had a set of sword techniques hidden within it.

Moreover, those sword techniques complemented the sword-drawing style he had.

The more Shin looked into the 'Jade Kirin Scripture' and the deeper his understanding he had about this particular Mentalism Method, the more mysterious it seemed to him.

And right now, as Shin became a little more familiar with the 'Jade Kirin Scripture', he used the Energy Circulation Method alongside the set of sword techniques under it to finally achieve something that he was to do.

Hu~!

Taking a deep breath, Shin assumed a sword-drawing stance as he combined everything that he learned about the 'Jade Kirin Scripture' up until now.

Click!

Then a soft clicking sound could be heard as his thumb pushed the guard of the [Yamato]. At the same time, his right arm vibrated a little, following the sound that reverberate in the whole place.

Then something happened that made Shin flash a satisfied look on his face.

"Hah! I see now. So, that is how it is supposed to be used. Interesting~!"
