On the way back to the inn, Gen said, "I can't believe I lost four fights today. Did you at least get something out of it, Rode?"
And Rode said, "Yes, I did, and in my opinion, it makes complete sense that you lost those four fights. After all, of the three spear techniques you showed me, only one of them is well-developed. The other two seem to be something you learned on your own while using them."
Gen then said, "Wow! You're right, Rode. I've only really been taught one of these techniques."
And Rode said, "That's why the technique where you mix up blows from the other three techniques is confusing. You need to learn how to use your other spears properly."
Gen then said, "I'd like to, but I don't know anyone who can teach me that."
And Rode said, "Don't worry, kid. I know someone who can teach you."
