Vulturn's Lessons

Note: This does not represent canon material in anyway.

This page is a recording of the most important of the lessons that my OCs Vulturn and Artagnan have with one another in the effort to build up Art's lacking foundation as a Hunter.

Weaponry
A: "How do you do it Vulturn? Fighting without a weapon."

V: "I have always been fighting with one. My body is my weapon."

A: "That's not what I meant. I mean, an actual weapon....Not that your fists don't get the job done."

V: "....Such a weapon is not something that I can rely upon. Use it too many times and it will turn into a crutch. It will restrain you, handcuff you to a fighting style that suits it, and the moment that fighting style's weaknesses are apparent to your enemy, you will be instantly crushed."

A: "Then why do Hunters..."

V: "Because Creatures don't look for those kinds of things. Your profession does not require versatility. It requires speed, finesse and generally a way to kill a creature in one hit, so as to prevent yourself from being overwhelmed by the swarms that will come at you. By handling the same weapon over and over again, your movements and attacks with it become akin to that a reflex. Did you really think Weiss could fight with her Myternaster like that the moment she picked it up?"

A: ".....I didn't?"

V: "That was a rhetorical question."

A: ".....so, telling me to swing my sword the same way thirty times a minute. Is that for building up a reflex?"

V: "It was to increase your arm strength. At the level you are now, you can barely skin a Beowolf. It will take a hundred times a minute, in twenty different combos, to even remotely build up muscle memory with your blade."

A: *sob*

Aura
V: "Now we will go over Aura......or at least what we can do with the bare amount you have."

A: "That's not my fault." *cries*

V: "Drink your tears. You will stain the floor. Now then, as you should know, Aura is-"

A: "-my life energy converted into steroids. Yeah, I kind of got that. Ow!"

V: "Such a narrow analogy.

Fighting
