Chapter 8 - RYOSHI ART AND THE OLD MAN (1)

When the coup came to the world, six legendary figures appeared who led the world towards victory. Because of the expansion of the world, these characters were divided into six kings who ruled their Nefudic region after the coup.

Masashi Masamura is considered the first king of the human realm, and the current king is a descendant of Masashi, although the world knows the first king by another name, which is Kamikaze.

Or what translates to the god of wind in the Japanese language. It is strange how the creator of the world inspired many names from different countries and different regions across the world, so there are many names like this.

But originally, Masashi was given this name because of what he did when the he was protecting was surrounded. At that time, before it was called the Human Domain, his name was changed.

After he annihilated an army of demons in one breath, the only thing his enemies or comrades felt before the massacre was a slight gust of wind before the demons' bodies disappeared into the dust of Ryoushi's art.

The art of Ryoshi is divided into seven basic movements that require control, calm, and sufficient training. Except for the first movement, on which the foundation of the rest of the six movements is built.

The first stage: a cross cut that depends on heading towards the opponent at high speed and waving at full speed to cut the opponent and thus kill him before he even has the opportunity to defend himself from the attack.

At this stage, you can use it while fighting with one opponent. Because of this movement, it produces a tunnel vision that makes the user of the art vulnerable to injury if it is used against more than one person.

The second stage: A vertical cut at the beginning moves like the first movement, until it relies on cutting straight to perform the movement, although it requires greater self-control.

This is in order to divide the opponent into two parts, whether he is human or any thing, and the need for self-control is that the cutting depends on idealism, just as this movement depends on the same weak points.

The third stage: non-lethal cutting, which depends on using the blunt back of the katana without immersing the sword in mana for cutting, and requires sufficient and difficult training.

This move does not suffer from any weakness except that it is not the ideal move for killing, and this move is found to be compatible with any other art of fighting with swords. 

The fourth stage: a light cut with great speed to kill the target before he even knows that you did this. This movement makes it appear as if you did not draw your sword and did not attack the opponent in the first place.

The fifth stage: The dance of death with sharp and fast moving sword movements. This movement is intended to kill many opponents, while moving among them in a quick moment and killing.

The user of the art needs to have unparalleled skill with a sword, and the owner of the art must have complete confidence in the sword. Now, one mistake in using this technique, and the user of the art is the one who deals the damage.

The sixth stage: Atomic cutting at the highest levels of speed, and combining the previous movements, it cuts about a thousand pieces in less than a second, to the point of turning anything into crumbs, regardless of its type or shape. 

The need to focus on this movement is not only a basic problem, but it is the basis that can enable you to survive the violent reaction of this deadly movement. 

The fifth movement makes you, and by applying the requirement of the sixth movement, you are able to cut atoms a thousand times, all in less than the blink of an eye for the recipients.

Seventh Stage: Heavenly Intent: At this stage, the user of the art no longer needs to use a sword or any sharp object whatsoever.

Only by relying on the rest of everything he has learned through the stages and movements of the art will the user of the art be able to use anything as a weapon, even tree leaves.

Not only that, but if the user of the art does not have a weapon or even something to be used as a weapon, then he does not need that now, and intention is at its highest level.

The user of the art and the master of extreme circumstances is able to harness the wind in his hand as a weapon. Not only that, but even just breathing is considered a weapon by a person who has mastered the art. 

As soon as Leon sat down and thought about the advantages and disadvantages of the art, he felt goosebumps all over his body. Ryoushi's art is not an ordinary art. To kill someone just by breathing is frightening.

How could someone be empowered in a time when mana never existed, and only with the emergence of mana did this art become almost unbeatable, something that even Leon or the writer of the novel could not say or think about its meaning.

Leon thought, 'This has many advantages and a frightening power that this dangerous art carries, but everything has its downsides. If I am not at my full potential, I could lose some limbs and my muscles could be completely destroyed.'

Leon got up and started stretching, "Damn, I don't feel any fatigue. I think I'll try to do some training until I feel tired and sleep."

Once Leon decided on his course of action, he took the sword in his hand, and because he did not have the art to understand the basics of the sword, he was clumsy in using it. Despite this, he did not give up and continued to wave the sword. 

In an attempt to get used to some of the additional weight from using the sword, every time he carried this sword he would feel its weight on his hand and he would continue to curse the weakness of the previous owner of the body.

After some time, Leon fell on his back, dripping with sweat and feeling as if the muscles in his hands were pulsing to escape the overwhelming pain in them.

Leon sighed and said while catching his breath, "Fuck my life System Show Status."
