Agatha The Legendary Guild Master

Chapter 62: Training Spear With A Venerable Master

This master was really calm, but his calmness was very dangerous, so I didn't open my mouth to say anything as I watched this master punishing this bastard silently.

That NPC's body was shivering from fear, so he didn't dare to delay a moment as he bowed slightly with his head towards the master as he said:

"I'm very sorry master, I c"

"Didn't I tell you to scram, or do you think you are smart enough to deceive me again? leave before I lose my patience and kill you, you liar."

This time that NPC didn't dare to argue back as he moved at once moving outside the training hall. When he disappeared from my sight, the master said calmly:

"I know my foolish apprentice crossed his limits, but I'm not the type to say sorry to anyone. In return, I will gift you something worthy."

I looked at the master then I realized that I was standing in front of the real master of this training hall, a just and an intimidating man, so I hurried to bow my head in the same way that liar did as I said:

"I'm sorry for all this convenience, master, it was my entire fault."

I tried to approach diplomatically to him, but it seemed my move backlashed on me as the master said:

"I don't like flattery words, spearmen shouldn't be this soft. Don't disappoint me little girl, I thought you were different."

I felt a jolt over my whole body, I tried to approach him but instead I got his anger. I didn't rush to speak as I kept my silence for a moment, then the master opened his mouth:

"Good, you learn quickly. Spearmen didn't speak with words, they spoke with their spear, so speak less and act always and never retreat, do you understand?"

I didn't speak as I feared if I said anything this master would get mad at me, but it seemed my silence was the perfect approach then. When I thought about it, this attitude really suited me a lot.

I just nodded my head in response when he added while taking out a marvelous spear that I never thought there would be such a spear in this world.

"I'm sure you aren't a spearman in nature, as you give me the odd feeling of being a wizard, is this right?"

It was really strange how he described my previous profession as being a magician, but I didn't open my mouth as I nodded my head then I took out my spear and pointed it towards him. Once I did that, he smiled, as I just did this on a whim, but he was satisfied by this.

"My eyes never deceived me; you are a hidden unpolished gem, so I intend to polish you till you shine."

He then raised his spear high in the sky till it became like an extension of his body to the sky.

"Many believe that swordsmen are far stronger and more dangerous than spearmen, but they are wrong. Spearmen aren't easily raised, I'm talking about genuine spearmen like me, not lousy one like that liar disciple of mine.

So, to learn how to be a great spearman, or woman, you need to understand your spear first. So, I will teach you how to connect with your spear, understanding him or not depends entirely on you girl, so don't disappoint me and follow all my steps."

I didn't understand what he meant by understanding my spear, and I felt as if he was talking about a person, not an equipment. Nonetheless, I followed his steps as I raised my spear high in the air and then held it still in that place. he looked at me as he said calmly:

"Observe better, and try not to neglect the small details, as these details are what make all the difference."

I looked towards his spear position and mine, they were the same. Then I started to observe his body position, and it was exactly similar to mine. When he noticed my observing looks he said:

"I will do it again for you, so observe closely this time."

He then descended his spear and then repeated his move again. this time, I was totally focused on his movement and tried to spot my mistake, and I easily noticed it, it was at my hand grip.

He didn't raise the spear high in the air while holding the spear by the usual hand grip, instead he made the spear stand on the palm of his hand and he held the spear with only the tips of his fingers. That was an insane level of control!

"It seems you know your mistake, but you are now thinking it's impossible, right?"

That calm voice of this master held many expressions and hidden meanings each time he said a sentence, which was really weird. I felt his excitation this time, and I didn't know why he was like this, but I nodded my head silently while he said:

"That's normal, as this is one of the debris that remained from your old class. Old habits never die easily, so you need to work on eliminating this bad habit today.

Spearmen don't think they just do. If you start to think about the possibility of success of failure, you will hesitate, and this hesitation has a bad effect on your spear. So, just follow my steps and let your spear feel your confidence in him and in yourself, then miracles will happen."

I looked towards him, captivated by his words, which were really true. I thought one of my strong traits I acquired from my magician past profession was strategic thinking, but it seemed this way of thinking during actual battles was bad.

I closed my eyes as I pictured this master's movement from before over and over again in my mind. When I felt I got a grasp over this move, I didn't open my eyes when I moved my spear as I feared if I did I might feel doubt and hesitation, and these two would affect my spear move.

I moved my body first, followed by my hand, and lastly I let go of my spear when my hand reached the sky.

Logically speaking, my spear should then be thrown in the air and leave my hand then it should descend upon me like lightning, but miraculously I felt my spear didn't leave my hand, instead, it strangely floated over my palm like it was an iron rod attracted to a magnet.

As my master did, I just moved the tips of my fingers to attach faintly on the surface of my spear. I feared the spear would kill me, and doubted my fingers grip would be so soft to hold it in place, but I was wrong, I was wrong in both of them.

"Good, good girl indeed, you managed to do it from your second try, good."
