26 Chapter 26 First time wielding a sword

" So what can you do?" I asked Arthur, curious what an overpowered King of England could do.

" Glad you asked, apart from being a master tactician, a master in leadership, I have almost reached the peak of swordsmanship, and even though I am not at Merlin's level( yeah in this story Merlin is stronger than those that created Hogwarts, because fucking yes, and it makes sense) I have my experience with my universe magic."

" Do I have the talent for magic?" I asked the question that several teens always wished for an answer to.

"Well, from what I know you can gain something skills, that represent your knowledge, and based on those skills you can unlock classes, which are your main route of power, so if I can give you enough magical knowledge that places you at the level of a magician you could gain a class for it and become one, otherwise it would be nearly impossible for you to learn due to the different constitution between our universes."

" Makes sense, but I think I won't study magic for quite a while, I'd rather solidify what I am already good at than branch into another completely different fighting style, becoming a magician warrior sounds cool, but becoming an unbreakable wall that can kill things with a sword is easier to achieve."

" Good decision, I can't decide for you but I can assure you that is the best decision, do you have somewhere we can train without either being seen or interrupted?"

I nodded and removed the crown( for the image of the crown think of the Espada one but rusty and without the gems) and string it inside my bracelet.

I decide to wear my everyday training clothing while messaging Rumi that I won't be coming today, deciding to take today as a "rest" day.

I kissed my mother goodbye and started running towards my usual spot in the forest.

When my agility reached 10 I had an average speed of 5 meters per second, but due to it being 50 points higher I have an average speed of 30 meters per second, Usain Bolt had an average of 10.44 meters per second, which means I am 3 times faster then the previous golden medal holder in my world, to that you need to add the effect of my running skill, which is currently a MAX level, so it boosts my speed by 100% and lowers my stamina consumption by 99,9%( can't be 100 or would break reality), meaning that my current speed while running is 60 meters per second if I activate Rage it goes even higher, I am slowly becoming a broken character, good.

It took me 1 minute to reach the area, no changes in my breath, and not needing to take a break I took out the crown and started talking again with Arthur.

" Took less than expected." He said while looking around.

" Reminds me of the hill where I played as a kid with..." The phrase remained unfinished.

" Take out a training sword and show me what you can do."

I did as he said and took out my rock sword which now weighed almost nothing to me.

I began showing off the Swordsmanship I had learned from fighting against a tree, no finesse or that type of bullshit, I hit to maim or kill, aiming at weak spots and joints is the main point of it, more reading on instincts than anything else.

By the time I had finished the tree fell, my swordsmanship finally being high enough that the rocks sword can be considered a normal sword, not a very sharp one though, to my surprise I also gained a point in Str, lucky.

" That was terrific, not in a bad way, swordsmanship has always varied from person to person, there are those who rely on speed or dexterity and those who rely on strength and endurance, but yours seems to really on experience, strength, endurance, speed, and instinct, your movements seemingly the ones of a ravenous beast ready to feast on his enemies, and I have the swordsmanship right for you."

With a swipe of his hand an ethereal book appeared in his hand, it flew towards my face and the words " Beast Among Humans".

The book opened and a flash of information filled my mind, and headache tried to form in my head but my pain resistance nullified it so I was able to absorb all the information as soon as it got inside my mind.

---------------------

Thanks to the exposure to a swordsmanship manual, the Sword Mastery Lv.60 skill has changed to the skill: Beast Among Humans Lv.60

Due to the new skill, the class Warrior changed to Beast Warrior, highly recommended to buy this class.

Beast Among Humans Lv.60

Your sword is your fangs, your body is filled with hidden power that rivals those of beasts, ready to tear enemies apart and slice their heads off, you are no human with a sword in hand, you are a beast ready to feast while holding a sword attack power, attack speed, speed, reaction time, accuracy, flexibility, sword sharpness, and sense will be boosted by (20+ Skill level).

---------------------

I closed my eyes, and a minute later I reopened them, a sharpness not present before could be felt in them.

With one quick step and a swing of my sword, a deep cut on a tree appeared, something that would have required me 3 or 4 slashes previously now was done in 1.

Just as the sword had passed the tree I twist my body kicking the tree with enough strength to make it fall to the ground.

A big smile from on my face at the show of strength.

" Good, but still not good enough, you need to grow more attached to it to show its full potential."

I turn towards Arthur happy to have met him and I take out from my bracelet what looks like a rusty key.

" It's good that I have just the thing I need to become good at it."
