Mamoru wouldn’t have thought much of it-there were dozens of students who climbed these steps each morning-but this boy’s clothing wasn’t right. ![]() There was a figure hunched over in the fog up ahead, a boy clinging hard to the rock wall as he panted for breath. He had just rounded the last curve when his feet slowed. His toes knew each ledge, each jutting rock, and he took the steepest part of the path in swift, confident bounds, skipping six steps at a time. “I’ll wait for you at the school,” he said cheerfully and took off up the mountain. “Are you kidding?” Yuuta gasped, doubling over to catch his breath. The moment Itsuki and Yuuta dragged themselves over the ridge where Mamoru was perched, he grinned and got to his feet. Beneath Mamoru’s dangling legs, there was only mist, rolling in slow waves against the cliff side, growing gradually brighter with the sunrise. It was rarely possible to see the base of the mountain from the Kumono steps. It had still been dark when the three boys began their climb, but by now, morning had seeped through the veil of fog to touch the rock face with its pale brushstrokes. “Fine, fine.” Mamoru lowered himself to the rock ledge and sat, letting his feet hang over the edge. “We’re not going to be late,” Itsuki called in exasperation from the mist below. “You two are too slow!” Mamoru called back. He rose every day before dawn, amid the chanting of crickets, so he could make the loop down the mountain toward the western village and tackle the steep climb with his friends. Mamoru’s family compound was built high enough that he could have taken an easier way if he chose, but Matsudas weren’t known for taking the easy way to anything. ![]() Itsuki and Yuuta had to take the steep path to the school because they lived in the western village, further down the mountain. “Mamoru!” his friends panted from the steps far below him. ![]() For most fourteen-year-old fighters, the winding way up to the school was a true test of nerve and agility, but Mamoru, with his springy legs and boundless energy, woke each morning looking forward to the challenge. Mamoru had counted one time on his way up-no easy feat while focusing on not toppling off the side of a mountain. It was a harrowing climb to the high school. Melee is the only training I skip and hope whoever came up with it feels good about themselves, because they clearly hate the players.The following are sample chapters from my Japanese-inspired military fantasy, The Sword of Kaigen, currently available on Amazon. It's unfun, complete RNG, that encourages counter intuitive behaviour of waiting for attacks to almost hit you before fending them off while sending multiple attacks. Melee, I hate this with a burning passion. The high score itself isn't really the problem. Ranged, the stars on this are terrible and highly luck dependant. While it's easy to tell which one is coming, it skips part of the wind up animation causing these attacks to come far faster than normal. Only thing that occasionally throws me off here is the spping attack. Soulcery, only the stars are hard and more in the annoying way.ĭefense, there's a bit of luck involved here, with some of the random barrage apples who are the only thing throwing me off, a lot of this is really just repeating patterns aside from the chakrams.Īgility, you can do stars without getting high in score, because every attack can be a star and they come one by one. You could argue that agility is just as counter intuitive, where you have to hit "slowly" to build stars and combo.Įdit: Not to say that it's EASY, but it was the EASIEST for me ** Disagree tbh. strength was one of the first and easist for me. Originally posted by s4s4:All i need is the missions in agility, which I am working on, and I still say agility was the hardest for me. ![]() when that happens its almost impossible to get them both without getting hit and that i think is a bit unfair. I found it pretty strange but for some reason at the magic apples section there came 2 apples at once! Yes this sounds crazy and sounds like i just see strange things but i swear that it happens atleast 8 times for me. i think that the normal apple section should be the easiest because thats the first section you get in strenght training. you just have to spam all buttons in the end and hope that you dont get hit. they are so much faster then all the other things and you have no time to react and calculate. the only thing thats really challenging is the normal apples. I must admit that the throwing stars, magic apples and the puppet sections are pretty easy. i think it should be lowered to 400 or 500. From what i know almost all people found the soulmaster combo on sword the hardest one of them all.
