chapter 30

Sukuru stood in a temple that had several Japanese oni statues sitting inside.

The temple floated in mid air a giant forest lated below it with huge waterfall in the center.

Across from sukuru stood a older man with long blonde hair and green eye's.

He wore black pants and no shirt.In his hand was a giant curved black sword.

With hundreds of markings on it.If you were an outside person looking in.

You would think a father was standing across from his

son.

"I see you made some changes to my mindscape."Said sukuru.

"Yes it was a bit dull but you must want to know why I forced you alone here."said the man.

"Yeah why am I the only ine here?"asked sukuru."Well I'd like to teach you an advance firm of full counter."Said the man.

"Okay but I never got your name."Said sukuru."It's not my true name but call me ayoichi"said the man.

"Alright now come attack me I won't do anything back."said ayoichi.

"Alright here I come."said sukuru pulling out his

sword.

He sliced the man across the chest as blood spilled out from the wound.

But the wound instantly healed as sukuru was cleaved in half from his shoulder to his waist

"What the hell just happened?"asked chihiro as his separated body fell to the ground.

"This is called perfect reflection. Allowing you to reflect any physical damage inflicted on you.

onto anything whether it's a person or object it doesn't have to be who inflicted the wound."said ayoichi.

Sukuru's body fused back together as he got

up.

"But unlike full counter it has a cooldown of five seconds."said ayoichi.

"And you can't reflect damage inflicted by yourself.Oh and you can also use it to reflect poison."Said ayoichi.

" I see how long will it take ne to learn this?"asked

sukuru.

"Not sure it's based solely on your talent.And you'd constantly have to have someone else injure you."replied ayoichi.

"Anyway you see this sword in my hand it's a weapon manifested from the tree.

That brought you here it's kept locked here in your mind and when you beat me you can have it."said ayoichi.

"So basically years from now."Said sukuru.

"No I'll lower myself to your strength and speed and only use techniques you know."said ayoichi.

"The only thing I'll have is more combat experience."said ayoichi.

"But I'll also be teaching you the full counter fighting

style."said ayoichi.

"This style involves both sword man ship and non swordmanship techniques.

And are most effective when used with full counter."Said ayoichi.

"To use this style effectively you must taunt your opponent leave openings that are not really openings.

So if you want to be a good fighter get under a person's skin and with invasion that should be easy."Said ayoichi.

Ayoichi disappeared appearing all over the temple in movements that were swift but seemingly easy to predict.

Chihiro raised his blade blocking a strike from hitting the back of his neck.

staying vigilant despite tye sloppiness of the strikes.

But the moment the blades clashed his arm flew off."Even parking a blade can be reflected."said ayoichi.

Placing a blade at sukuru's neck.
