《Harmony: An Assassins Tale》Chapter 6 : The Mysterious Man's Strength?
Advertisement
As I charged to tackle the mysterious man, he dodged it with ease and stood there waiting for the next attack. For the next 10 minutes it seemed as though he wasn't trying to attack me rather simply dodging my attacks at him. "Come on you old man! Are you to scared to fight back? Do you really think I would go easy on you for being old?" I said, taunting him to attack. When I charged again, he said, " I will not attack because I do not need to. You will lose all your stamina before I even need to attack, and I'm not that old, you little squirt." This time I decided to call out my Soul Emifer, as I know that there is no time limit. When I called it out, I learned a few tricks about how to use it and I split the rock into 8 pieces, afterwards I shaped each of those pieces into different shapes, one was a gun, another was a sword, another hammer, a pickaxe, an axe, a shovel, and two more swords.
With those 8 items, I firstly through a shovel at him. Afterwards I supposed to the three possible places he could dodge it and sent the pickaxe and hammer. Afterwards when he went to the spot I wanted, I cut the tree around that area, then I would corner him with the swords and send the final blow via gun. Atleast I thought it was foolproof. The plan worked up until i shot him, when he simply dodged it all by jumping up and to the side. "Well done, sonny! If that was any other person in the entire planet, they would have died, consider yourself unlucky! I suppose I better attack now!"
When he came to attack, his fists were like bullets, I couldn't see them but there was one single problem I was facing. The fact that it didnt hurt me at all, it felt like a baby trying to knock down an adult. "Really, old man? You are this weak?" I said, and he laughed , saying, " Oh, but I didn't even hit you once, because I know that it would have killed you, if you want to see my strength, come at me, and I'll knock you out with a flick." he said, taunting me this time. I knew that was physically impossible unless you're some monster, but I didn't care, I went for the punch, and hell if I was to know, that single flick actually did send me flying. when I hit the fence, i coughed out some blood, saying, "Dammit, why.. am... I.... so.... weak."

After that I was taken to the Mysterious Man's House and he healed my wound. "First of all, I have a name, but since it is classified, simply call me Sensei from now on." When he came to heal me, it happened pretty instantly, and I thought what could his SE be? Is it healing, jumping, insane strength, just what could it be?! After healing my wound, he told me that the next day we will start our training. I was partially excited and partially down for it. I still had no clue where Hartsen~Sensei was and where the hell I was.I asked him where we are and he said, "We are in China, where most 'Kung Fu' masters where born. To be honest, Kung Fu was a means of hiding the identity of Soul Emifers to this world, and 'Kung Fu' was meant to destroy the spirits, but that aside, let us start our training!"
The first thing he told me was to go the the great wall and run all the way around it. "No way, That's impossible! No human could do that." And then Sensei told me, "If I'm not back here within 10 minutes, then consider me dead." and with that he ran, he ran like a beast. After 8 minutes there was still no sign of him and I was getting bored, so I decided to summon my Soul Emifer and try to strengthen it in a few ways, but mainly to increase my control on the weapons I create. Sure enough the moment the clock hit 10 minutes, he was there, and with a few bags of stuff. "Damn, I was here by 5 minutes, but since I said 10 I decided to buy us some food and snacks. Anyways, do you understand the capability of your SE? You just need to try."

I felt a bit encouraged so I decided to run around as well, and he proprosed the same deal, "If you come here by 10 minutes, I will teach you everything I mastered, elsewise your training will get more intense from the day onward." and with that I ran off, as fast as I could. I continued running and running around to see how far I will go, but it didn't seem like I was going anywhere, but I continued on running. My feet where aching and I couldn't tell where I was. Finally, when I met Sensei he told me two things. "First of all, its been 3 hours, and second of all for an entire loop there would have been atleast more than 3~4 hours for you, so I decided to make it easier." Before hearing his explanation I dropped down on the stone and fainted.
When I woke up, it was Sensei and he said, "Wakey Wakey! Your wounds are fixed and your stamina is back, time for some more intense training!" With that he took me to the backyard and told me to dig. To dig until you see stone, and then break the stone with your hand. "Your training will end when I see a piece of stone on your hand and your knuckles bleeding." With that we both started pummeling the ground. Sure enough, both of us got to the dirt, and with one massive punch, Sensei broke a massive hole into the ground, making a miniature ravine. I to, tried to do that but with no avail. Then he told me, "For the next 2 weeks, we will continue these two types of training, and when the time comes, after two weeks you will see how much stronger you are." With that I started my training for the next two weeks and I was ready to become stronger than before. I walked to Sensei's house, ready to endure the suffering of the next 2 weeks.
