Today, Rishi arrived at the garden where Naman had invited him.
He came across Naman standing by the side of a pond. He approached him and greeted him. "Good morning, elder."
"Call me master from now on," Naman said to Rishi.
"Yes, master," Rishi said while bowing to him.
"Let us not waste any more time and begin your training," Naman said.
"Make a wooden Talwar (Indian sword)," Naman said to the Banyan tree.
The tree branch approached Rishi and transformed into an edgeless wooden Talwar.
Rishi used his inspection skills on Talwar.
A window appeared in front of him, displaying Talwar's characteristics.
[TALWAR(WOODEN)]
Blade Material: Mystical Tree Magical Beast Wood
Shape: Edgeless, Slightly Curved, Round Tip Blade
The blade's length: 25 INCHES.
Blade Thickness: 1.5 INCHES
Total length: 30 inches.
Naman then began teaching Rishi. "This sword is a Talwar; it's a sword with properties of both sword and saber."
"It is very good at cutting because it is slightly curved, but it can also be used for thrusting because it has a round tip that makes its tip strong enough not to be damaged even after thrusting it into an armor."
"It's a single-handed sword that can be used with a shield and another Talwar."
"This sword is used very differently than other swords; it is a sword that is mostly used close to the body, making it an excellent defensive weapon."
"To move this type of sword, you'll need to use your wrist."
"This weapon is an excellent cutter, which means that if your attack lands on your opponent's limbs, it will severe them." he continued.
"All right, let's get started; I'll show you how to use basic Talwar movement today."
"First, movement is making an "8" in the air with it by using your wrist," he said as he demonstrated Rishi. He made an 8 in the air with the use of his wrist.
"I'm only giving you an edgeless Talwar because you'll hurt yourself if you do this movement with a real Talwar."
"Put your left hand on your back or chest, and then use this movement."
"Perfect it first, then I'll teach you other movements," Naman said as he sat under the Banyan tree and resumed his meditation.
.
Rishi attempted to use the Talwar and discovered that he could not replicate Naman's movements. His wrist could not follow his movements at all.
He practiced for two hours with his passive skill, 'enhanced focus,' and turned on to finally perform that "8" shaped movement, but it was too rough.
Rishi took a short break to meditate before returning to his training. It took him another two hours to perfect the fundamental movement.
.
"Master, I have learned how to use the first movement," he told Naman.
Naman opened his eyes and demonstrated the next sword movement to Rishi. "Now that you've learned the first step, I will explain the other steps to master this weapon."
"The second move you need to learn is to make the same movement but this time horizontally," he explained.
"In the air, you must create a "∞" symbol."
"The third step is to make '∞' shape bigger and bigger to cover more space."
"The fourth step is learning to repeat this movement in a loop."
"The fifth step is to use your Talwar to cover your back area while looking in front and continuing the '∞' movement."
"Now go back and practice, and come back to me when you've mastered all of these steps," he said casually as he walked back to his house.
"OK, master," Rishi replied.
He then returned home and practiced all of the basic Talwar movements over and over to perfect them.
He first worked on his wrist movement.
It took him much longer to get used to it, and the excessive use of the wrist caused him pain.
He began doing wrist exercises to strengthen them.
He then decided to level up his 'enhanced focus' skill. This decision worked well, and Rishi began noticing that he was learning all the movements faster.
He learned the second movement '∞' after some practice.
He followed the third step after it and made a more oversized'∞' shape to cover more space.
Even with his passive skill, it took Rishi three days to master everything his master had taught him.
Rishi then returned to Naman and showed him his Talwar movements.
"You are performing them correctly," Naman observed, "but don't hold the Talwar that tightly; it is a weapon that is used with a light grip."
"You can practice that yourself; today, I'll teach you the fundamental Talwar skill."
"It's called 'Quick Draw,' and to use it, you must have at least 75 points in agility and senses that are many times higher than normal Beast Tamers your level; do you have any skills that increase your senses?"
"Yes, I have one," Rishi replied.
"Then upgrade it," Naman said.
"A scabbard is the first thing you'll need to use 'Quick Draw.'"
"Use it," he said, pulling out a Talwar sheathed in a leather sheath.
"The first thing you should know is always to maintain a proper posture, then you should know how to draw your sword correctly; after that, you just need to make it as fast as possible."
"Like this," Naman showed.
He took out a real sheathed Talwar and touched it with his head to show respect. He then took an apple and threw it with minimal force.
The apple only climbed a few inches before collapsing due to gravity. Naman attacked it with his Talwar and then caught it with his Talwar.
Rishi noticed a blurred movement of the Talwar and then saw the perfect apple with no cuts; at first, he thought Naman had missed his attack, but then the apple split into eight equal pieces before his eyes.
"See, Rishi, I did it slowly so you could see this attack," Naman explained. "This is a basic skill, but it is also a very advanced skill; whether this skill is powerful or weak depends on the user."
"The more you practice this skill, the stronger it will become."
"It works on a single principle; no matter how powerful a skill is, remember this."
"You will win if you defeat your opponent before he can use it."
He then explained everything he needed to know about mana path, strength, and wrist work to Rishi.
He took Rishi's Talwar back and started speaking. "Always remember, Rishi, the two rules to use a Talwar."
"First, you must show respect by touching it with your head whenever you use it. The only exception is when it's an emergency. You should always have faith in your weapon and respect it."
"The second thing is to never put your Talwar back in the scabbard without first cutting something."
"It's preferable to use your blood if you draw it in the air before putting it back in. Always remember that Talwar is a lethal weapon; it will take your blood if you don't willingly give it some," Naman stated solemnly.
"Learn it yourself, and only bother me if you have any doubts."
"You only have a month before going to the academy; make the most of it."
.
Rishi returned to his garden and began practicing this new skill.
He tried various methods to learn it, but for the first time in his life, he felt he wasn't moving fast enough. He had always thought agility was his strongest suit but trying to learn it changed his mind.
He then opened his Status Window and increased the number of "free points" in agility. This increased Rishi's agility by 75 points; as a result, Rishi felt he was now fast enough and only needed to work on his technique.
He practiced by cutting a sugar cane horizontally from top to bottom.
He then started to learn the fundamental movements again.
He felt compelled to return to the forest to train as he only had one month to reach the advanced stage.
Rishi then packed his bag and again went to the forest to train.
