Teaching the Old

****(POV)

So, I just won a fight. One that was extremely short. The only reason my opponent lasted 10 moves was because of the advantage I gave him. 

First thing, I'm actually quite strong now. Defeating a rank 4 is child play. I'm not even sure how that happened myself. I trained for about 2 years, fighting daily against the beast kings and refining my sword will. 

I was expecting it to be strong, but it's actually more than that. As long as my opponents don't have a similar level of accomplishment in their will or a treasure sword they cannot face me at all. How could they when I can destroy their weapon barehanded? 

Second, the man that I just defeated is now in front of me crying. He's on the ground defeated, holding the remnants of his sword as one would lament the passing of a close friend. Who does that?! Especially for something as simple as a sword!
