Overcome

He had activated Forestep to a minor degree than he normally did, the Forestep technique boosted his movements to a much less degree than Kane's Godspeed did because it inherently spread the boost over time and because Rui had only mastered the Godspeed amplification technique to a partial degree due to lack of affinity and Kane's talent.

Even still, that almost entirely compensated for the significant gap between them, albeit Rui's moves were still less fluid than Kane's, his reaction was longer than his as well. He still did not want to waste this application of the Forestep technique.

Even if he did not make much progress today, he was determined to gain more experience and then use that experience to identify what it was that he was lacking, and what he could to do make it better.

In time, he hoped to become more effective in dealing with lightning.
