Chapter 29: Tomorrow
"Ding ~" The thin sword in her hand was cut into two. The exquisite attack that the girl had unleashed with all her strength was cut in front of Kirito.
"..." The girl stared blankly at the broken sword in her hand. Her expression was gloomy, and she could not help but lower her head slightly. She gritted her teeth and muttered," Is this the power of a ninja?" The swordsmanship of this era…could only be considered as a show?”
"Swordsmanship is definitely not for show.”Kirito responded to the girl's question indifferently, then added," Also, I'm not a ninja.”
Kirito seemed to have come to a sudden realization when faced with the sorrowful girl. To be fair, the girl's swordsmanship was not bad. At least, her moves were not much worse than Kirito's. However, no matter how strong her skills were and how exquisite her techniques were, it could not make up for the huge gap in her own strength. This difference in strength came from the most basic individual ability value. According to the system, Kirito's ability value could be reflected by strength, endurance, agility, and stamina.
The girl's sword skills were not bad. In fact, if it was a direct confrontation, Kirito's assassination sword skills would be suppressed by her. However, in a real battle, the girl's attacks could not withstand a single blow. The reason was that Kirito's personal ability value was far higher than his opponent's. No matter how exquisite a sword technique was, it would be futile if the sword was broken. Kirito was like this. He used speed and brute force to forcefully break the opponent's sword. Then, no matter how gorgeous the sword technique was, it would be impossible to use it.
Kirito had defeated the girl in front of him with just one move. It was not that Kirito was very strong, but that she was too weak. She was indeed very weak. No matter how good her sword skills were, she was still very weak. However, Kirito's strength was not that great in the entire Ninja Realm.
Ignoring the various weapons in the arsenal system, just looking at Kirito's personal attributes, his stamina was not much better than Genin's. His strength was also below Chuonin's. After Kirito had obtained two additional attribute points, his endurance had improved to a certain extent. His physical strength, toughness, and ability to withstand attacks should be at the level of a top-tier Chuonin. The only thing that he could show off was his agility, which was completely at the level of a Jounin. If he added the concept equipment, Gale Boots, to his advantage, Kirito's peak speed could surpass the average speed of a Jounin when he was not in combat!
……
"Kiri-kun, please guide me in my swordsmanship training!”
"Your Highness, I've already told you that my swordsmanship is very ordinary. I can't guide you to become stronger.”
As he met up with Kai and the others, Kirito learned that the princess was the important person they were supposed to escort.
The higher-ups of the Fire Country respectfully sent them off, and they left Daming Mansion for Muye.
However, the moment she stepped out of the door, the princess walked out of the luxurious and comfortable carriage and pestered the Kirito accompanying her, asking him to guide her in her cultivation.
"Ohoho ~" The princess's words made Xiao Li's eyes burn with hot blood and drive."This is the hot-bloodedness of youth. Even the noble princess wants to cultivate and become stronger." From now on, I'll have to add another 500 palm pressors every day!”
" You're even going to push this matter to the back of your hand…" Tian Tian was speechless. She then looked at Kirito and pouted as she mumbled," What happened? Why does the princess seem to like Kirito so much…"
"Teacher Kirito, please call me Asuna.”The young girl said seriously, not joking at all.
"Don't call me teacher, Asuna.”Kirito frowned and answered seriously.
Ning Ci, who had been silent all this while, couldn't help but twitch his face. He muttered," You refuse to be called teacher, but you call the princess by her name as a matter of course…"
However, Ning Ci did not know that this was also Kirito's personality. He was naturally free and easy, and never valued status. Just like how he was born in the Japanese branch family, he was labeled as trash and ridiculed by others, but he still did not care at all. The reason wasn't because he had a good temper, or because he was cowardly or something…
For example, Tian Tian, who truly understood Kirito's personality, knew that Kirito was only interested in things that she wasn't interested in, so she simply ignored them. However, it was this carefree personality that made Tian Tian, who had similar personalities, have a good impression of him.
Tian Tian didn't seem to find it strange that Kirito was calling the princess by her name. She walked over to him and elbowed him in the chest." Hey, hey, you're amazing! You've already hooked up with the princess so quickly!"
Facing Tian Tian's teasing, Kirito could not help but put on a mischievous smile and reached out a hand to pinch her smooth chin. Isn't my cute lady boss the same?”
"Woo ~" She subconsciously took a few steps back when she was hit by the man's aura at such a close distance. Her small face could not help but turn red. She slapped away Kirito's hand and glared at him angrily."Kirito, you're courting death. How dare you use me to farm!"”
Kirito shrugged and said matter-of-factly," Isn't this returning the favor?”
However, the fact that Kirito was playing around with Tiantian as if there was no one else around made Asuna, who was standing at the side, feel a little dissatisfied. With her noble status, no matter where she was, she would naturally be held in the palm of everyone's hand. However, the Kirito that she met today did not seem to buy it. However, when she thought about how Kirito was the only person that Asuna knew who would not be submissive to her and who would keep a respectful distance from her, she felt a special feeling that she had never felt before. It was as if she had made a real friend for the first time. This kind of feeling was something that others could not understand.
