Celestial Bloodline

Chapter 31: ’Tap’



Chapter 31: 'Tap'

The lecture lasted an hour before Aliza left the classroom.

As usual, after the lecture, the students entered the training ground.

Alec stood in front of a dummy with the sword unsheathed, his palms were sweating and his clothes drenched. He wiped the sweat with a towel and glanced at his friends they were all practicing diligently. Not far from Carcel, Nine was also practicing a new skill on a dummy.

He put the towel away and looked at the person standing next to him.

Kyle looked engrossed in reading the sword Art he got from the library. He would frown from time to time but had not done anything else for the past thirty minutes.

After taking a deep breath Alec started practicing again.

Professor Liam the weapon training instructor also glanced at Kyle and frowned, he had been watching over the kids and helping them if they had any problems.

He walked toward Kyle.

"Kid what are you doing, looking at the Art manual you are holding it's 3-star. If you don't understand it, how about asking me for help? I am standing here to help anyway."

"!..."

Kyle looked at the tall professor standing in front of him.

"It's fine. Thank you, sir."

He nodded politely before putting the book inside the storage ring, it seemed he was too engrossed in reading and forgot about the surroundings.

Professor Liam's frown deepened, 'Whatever I just wanted to help, let's see how you understand such a hard manual by yourself.'

Not caring anymore the Professor walked toward another student. He had seen this type of students a lot who think they can learn anything without anyone's help. In the end, they all come running for help.

On the other hand, Kyle walked toward one of the dummies. Taking out the sword from the storage ring he took a deep breath.

He has been reading the Art book and after just reading it for half an hour he comprehends all four moves!

It seems his understanding and comprehension abilities increased incredibly after the suppression effect of the bloodline lessened.

After understanding all the moves first, he cursed inwardly because now he knew why it would take hundreds of years just to master a single move.

The four moves themselves were very easy to execute. To execute the first move you can't use brute force. Using light as a medium a fast single tap can cut the enemy in half. They were light and destructive at the same time.

The day when the strength in your arm becomes one with the sword, only then will you be able to master the first move.

Kyle looked at the dummy, holding the sword he took an overwhelming stance.

Alec who was practicing near him stopped and looked at Kyle with anticipation.

When they were fighting the Goblins, Alec noticed Kyle only used brute force without any proper technique to kill the Goblins.

Professor Liam who was waiting for Kyle to ask for help also looked at him. The sudden change in the atmosphere attracted a few other students standing behind the professor, they also looked toward Kyle.

Meanwhile, Kyle who had not even executed the move felt the burning stare coming from Alec. He also felt someone staring from behind.

He started sweating.

'Dam.'

Taking a deep breath again Kyle decided to empty his mind.

After grabbing the sword more firmly, he slowly slashed it horizontally and the move everyone was waiting so eagerly to see was executed.

Alec looked at the tip of the sword and frowned because he didn't feel any force from the attack.

'Is he going to attack the chest? But It is too slow and can be blocked easily.'

Alec and Professor Liam both thought the same thing but the sword suddenly became too fast and changed trajectory mid-way aiming for the neck of the dummy.

' ? '

Professor Liam showed a surprised expression.

Meanwhile, the sword hit the dummy's neck with a,

'Tap'

"Huh? " Alec exclaimed dumbfounded because the dummy didn't even move an inch.

The hit was so light that he felt like he would be able to take thousands of those hits without getting a scratch.

"Pffff." The laughter of the students standing behind the professor attracted the attention of the other students.

"What happened?"

Someone questioned.

"Hahaha Dam! It's so funny. He took such an overbearing stance only to tap the dummy gently?"

"Hahaha Right, I thought after standing for so long he was going to perform something awesome."

Hearing the countless laughs Kyle was so embarrassed that the tip of his ears turned red.

'Fuck who the heck wrote this Art. Pray I never found you or else I am definitely gonna beat you up.'

After cursing the creator of the Art inwardly he tried to ignore those fools who were laughing non-stop.

'What do they know, the Art is very powerful I just need some more practice.'

Kyle was still consoling himself inwardly when he heard a small choke laughter from the left side.

He turned around and saw It was Alec!

Alec was covering his mouth with one hand and holding a sword in another, it seemed like he tried to hold the laughter but failed miserably.

Seeing the shaking body of Alec a vein bulged on Kyle's forehead and he lost it.

"Are you laughing at me? It seems you want to take a hit from my sword."

Kyle exclaimed with frustration before pointing the tip of the sword toward Alec.

"Haha No I..."

Alec knew that things were going bad, but he still wasn't able to stop laughing.

He found it funny how Kyle was trying his best to show a serious expression just like a kid who lost a bet.

Alec's laughter attracted more attention, now all the students present inside the training ground looked toward Alec and Kyle.

"Huh."

Kyle Hmph sarcastically and looked at Alec dumbfounded.

'What so funny, even the students standing behind the Professor didn't laugh this much.'

"Dam you asked for it!."

With an angry face, Kyle attacked Alec.

Alec wanted to stop laughing and apologize but seeing a sword coming straight at his face he stopped laughing before easily deflecting Kyle's attack with a single slash.

After deflecting the attack Alec decided to patch things up. He knew he went too far this time.

"I am sorry, I didn't mean to. It's just your expression was funny."

His apology made Kyle more angry because even when apologizing Alec was smiling.

Now Kyle wanted nothing but to wipe that annoying smile out of Alec's face.

"Damit! You are still laughing. Stop laughing and then apologize."

Kyle attacked again and again, but what made him more frustrated was that no matter how he attacked, Alec would deflect it with ease without facing pressure.

Only Professor Liam who was watching the fight seriously from the start noticed the small change in Kyle's movement.

'His movements are becoming refined the more he uses his sword, is it my imagination?'
