Chapter 839: Chapter 310 Advanced Meditation Method (2-in-1 Chapter)_4

After all, just the other day, his shield suffered terribly, almost getting pierced to pieces by Rein’s throwing spear.

”Uh... I got a sudden impulse, so I picked up a dagger-type extraordinary battle technique to practice casually.”

Upon hearing Viery and Angus’s question, Rein glanced down at the dagger in his hand, casually finding an excuse.

After all, he couldn’t possibly say his talent suddenly increased, allowing him to comprehend secret techniques in just a few days!

Yet Rein’s words still left everyone puzzled.

An impulse?

Practicing casually?

Among those present, perhaps only Neoro, being a Scroll Master, didn’t quite realize just how much sweat, time, and effort a regular knight has to put into learning an extraordinary battle technique.

Whether it was Angus, Viery, or Evelyn, all who trained in knightly ways, they knew well the difficulty involved.

In their hearts, a thought quietly emerged, ’He’s truly a talent freak!’

”By the way, you all came at the right time, you can help me test this new dagger combat skill,” Rein said with a smile.

”Captain, you just learned it today? If you lose, don’t be embarrassed,” Viery volunteered first, jokingly.

”Trying it out will reveal everything,” Rein couldn’t help but laugh.

...

Minutes later, a contest ended.

Viery looked at Rein with a ghost-seeing expression, ”Captain, did you really not lie to me? You just started learning the dagger today?”

”Uh... Being a short weapon, the dagger has many similarities to the Finger Tiger I master, so I learned quickly,” Rein thought for a while to find such a vague explanation.

On the side, Evelyn blinked her beautiful eyes twice, internally muttering, ’Is this fast? That’s flying fast!’

While Angus silently nodded, rubbing his chin in contemplation, appearing to find it quite reasonable.

Due to the team members taking turns to spar with him, Rein’s new combat skill ’Barrack’s Assassination Dance Steps’ soared at a speed ordinary people could hardly imagine!

...

Two days later, in the morning.

The sun had just risen.

A slender girl arrived alone at the shore of Stillwater Lake, looking travel-worn.

Some groups of camping men and women by the lakeside curiously observed the girl, seemingly surprised she was journeying alone.

Considering the Empire’s recent turmoil, with refugees, bandits, and even ruthless cultists appearing repeatedly, most people traveled safely only relying on large caravans or mercenary groups.

The girl washed her face with clear water briefly, stood up, and looked at the towering mountains afar and the massive city Minter built by the mountains.

After staring a few seconds, the girl sighed quietly, ”So this is Minter... It’s magnificent!”

The girl was Anna, traveling from Meist County City to Minter.

From the staff left behind at Rein Mansion in Meist, Anna gathered specific news about Rein, discovering he was granted the title of Baron, joined the Imperial Swordsmen Organization, and recently his family moved to Minter.

Thus, Anna continued her journey towards Minter.

The journey, however, wasn’t entirely smooth, but Anna’s Transformation into a Giant Horned Deer proved very useful.

Transforming into a Giant Horned Deer provided not only considerable combat ability but also travel speed, rivaling the ’Little Black’ Fast Stepping Horned Horse.

Coming across bandit groups along the way, Anna didn’t hesitate, accelerating to take a detour.

Encountering those who wouldn’t give up, relentlessly chasing, Anna unleashed a ’Giant Horn Collision’, immediately breaking their tendons and bones.

...

Meanwhile.

Mingster Swordsmen Division.

”Knock knock knock!”

Knocking sounded outside Rein’s room.

”Oh, Lady Olena, so early.”

”Lord Rein, good morning. Admiral Edward invites you over. Recently, Duke of Minter also arrived at the division, apparently to commend your outstanding contribution in the recent cult incident.”

Olena said with a smile.
