I have seen complaints about the middle part of the novel, namely around chapter 60-70 some have said that it get too slow and I admit I made pacing mistakes there but the novel gets better right after and I believe some of the best content I wrote happens after that part so please make it through to join me and the rest of the readers on my journey. WARNING: I don’t write brain-dead characters. Romance and harem, which are not the focus of the story will take time. This novel was inspired by Soulsborne, all of it. **** 7 chapters/ week join my discord and become a Crestmaster: https://discord.gg/v7rsrySs 黑色台面

Trial and error

The training today was split into three parts, first was the seventy laps and second was the twenty eight sword forms practice. Finally he had hand to hand combat with Gazeff.

Aldrich guessed that Gazeff added the hand to hand combat to create a suitable excuse to beat him up. Which he did. That was a blow to Aldrich who thought that he was getting good as a fighter.

Gazeff told him that this style was called the bone breaker art by the monks that taught him. Aldrich could indeed attest that this art was not named in vain.

After the training was over it was almost sunset, so Aldrich decided to leave with Gazeff. No matter how confident he had gotten he wasn't going to risk it in here for a bit of essence and some coin.

"Oh, yeah since you clearly decided to take me as your mentor you before pay up. I want the money up-front each week." Gazeff demanded as they walked back.
