Later that day…
Ugh, it's going to take us forever to eventually scratch these dummies much less destroy them.
"Fine, I'll give you kids a hint. Use the katana as an extension of your body and unleash energy into them," Mr. Sato explained.
"Unleash energy and extension of our bodies. What is that even supposed to mean?" Lyra said confused.
I have an idea, guys. Try channeling a bit of Aru into your katana. Aru can enhance our physical abilities. Why wouldn't it be able to do the same with the katana?
They then concentrated on channeling Aru from their arms to the katana…
Let's see if this works.
Swoosh!
It worked. Y'all should try it.
"Ok," Lio replied.
Swing!
"It worked for me as well," Lio said with excitement.
When everyone had destroyed their dummy…
"Well done all of you now it's time to learn how to throw a shuriken," Mr. Sato said.
"Think of a shuriken as a kunai with multiple blades. It's not hard to throw accurately you just need to account for a moving target. I'm going to create 4 clones of myself, you four need to hit those clones with your
shuriken. Then you can go home," Mr. Sato explained
Mr. Sato then created 4 clones of himself…
This is going to be the most difficult task yet.
But here goes nothing…
Aerin began to chase after one of Mr. Sato's clones…
Damn it, I missed. They are too fast.
"Damn!" Lio yelled.
"Come on!" Lyra screamed.
I suppose they aren't having any luck either.
Hey guys come here I have a plan.
After they all met up…
"What's your plan?" Lio asked.
Mr. Sato is an experienced assassin, but experienced assassins use patterns and tactics. Did any of you notice that every time you throw at one of the clones, they always dodge to the left.
"Now that you say something ya bumpy clone dodged to the right," Aelira replied.
We need to choose a clone and fight each one in pairs. On person throws a shuriken and observes where the clone goes then one person can throw a shuriken at the clone again and the other can grow the shuriken to where the clone will dodge.
"That actually sounds like a good plan," Lio replied.
Get into your pair and let's show these clones who is boss.
To be continued…
