Chapter 250

'System would help you to be a peerless existence in the whole universe. But, I must follow the rules of the systems. You need to provide me with PSR energy so I could help you more.'

Ibro sighed as he said:

'Fine, in the next battle, my skeletons will provide enough energy for you.'

'No, you mistook my meaning. You should kill by yourself only to be able to acquire this energy.'

Ibro squinted his eyes at once and his face became unsightly. He argued:

'These skeletons are the ones I summoned by my technique. Why can't I gain energy from them?'

'PSR energy is extremely pure energy. Your skeletons had gotten their intelligence and personality back. They aren't just dead dummies that move around, they are sentient beings like you. 

Anything they kill will be absorbed by them not you. PSR energy can be acquired only when you kill by your efforts.'

Ibro didn't let this go easily as he argued again:

'These skeletons are formed by my technique. There is no way I can't absorb energy from their killing.'

'You can absorb part of the energy, indeed, but this won't be the PSR energy. As I just told you, PSR energy is pure and can't be divided between two individuals.'

Ibro felt doubt towards this system as he said expressing these doubts:

'Why do I feel that you are trying not to help me?'

'On the contrary, I'm trying to help you. You need to understand, personal power is the most important power. 

It doesn't matter if you are a mighty emperor who rules over many worlds. What matters not the size of your armies or the number of your capable men. 

What really matters is your personal strength. Weak rulers are the curse of any nation.'

Ibro couldn't refute his reason, so he asked:

'I agree with you, but my current abilities can't help me in one Vs one battles. I'm a necromancer; I fight by summoning the dead and make them work for me. How should I fight alone then?'

'You have a point here.'

Then the system went silent. Ibro also kept his silence. He wanted to see what this boss-type system would do.

'I revised your personal attributes. Your biggest two strengths are your Intelligence and Strength. I can help you one time only, so you need to select one of the two.'

Finally, the boss system had decided to help him. Ibro was frustrated but he didn't express his anger. Instead of choosing he asked:

'What will you give me? A class? Or a skill?'

'Neither of both. The ultimatum mode doesn't use these lowly leveled ways to use energy. I can open a function for you. This function is what you will use from now on.'

Ibro didn't mind the change of names. He thought about his choices. He already had a strong magician-based cultivation way. It would be better to add a close-range way to it.

'I decide to go for the Strength.'

'Good. As I know from my assessment, you played once as a swordsman and a knight. What will be your choice between the two?'

Although he played by the shield warrior for the longest period, he had a deeper impression of the swordsman class. he decided to choose the most aggressive one as he stated his decision:

'I will choose the swordsman function.'

'Good. I will open a special function for you now. You need to train yourself in it as soon as possible before your next battle.'

Ibro didn't reply to this bad system as he started to view the swordsman function.

'Swordsman function: an ultimatum function. Current status: incomplete activation. Type of energy used: PSR energy. 

Effect: uses the whole body energy and transforms it into PSR energy. This energy will be injected in each sword strike. 

The final result depends upon the current strength of the system holder and the level of his function and level of the strike used. 

Current function level: Novice swordsman level 1. Number of available strikes: 10. Number of learned strikes: 0.'

Ibro then checked the shortlist of available strikes with astonishment. He felt as a new world was opened in front of him. Each strike of these 10 needed some conditions to be learned. 

These conditions are the stance, the move, and the strike. Three conditions came with detailed illustrations for each of them. 

The stance was meant for the position he should start with when he used any strike. Each strike had a different stance. These differences were just small unnoticed changes in Ibro's opinion. 

For example, the sword god strike required him to raise his right hand holding the sword vertically over his head, while his left hand formed a fist and put horizontally towards the direction where his strike would fall. 

The sword whirlpool strike required him to use two swords, one in each hand. The sword's right position should be in an oblique high position while the left sword would be in oblique lower positions. 

These stances weren't only meant for his sword and hand position. When he tried to mimic the strongest strike in the list, which was the dragon descent sword strike, he failed. 

When he repeated that try multiple times, the system interfered by pointing out his mistakes.

'You don't put your body in the right stance. Look carefully at your whole body position in the illustration. 

You should bend your left knee and arch your back a little to the right. Stances aren't only for sword position. Focus more please.'

Ibro felt angrier towards this boss-type system. He hated to be instructed like this. But he had to admit, this system had pointed out these tiny differences between his stance and that illustrated with the strike. 

After another 2 hours of constant failure, he succeeded. Although he had used a random sword from his ring, once he succeeded he felt a strange transformation occurring to that sword. 

It was like that sword was upgraded from the trash grade to the legendary grade in one go. 

That was only from the stance alone. Ibro believed that if he struck any enemy with this stance alone he would be able to kill NPC level 50 in one strike. 

The next step for him was the movement. He thought he had gotten enough experience from the previous trials at the stance phase. He was mistaken. 

It took him nearly 10 hours of continuous practice to master the movement. That was only one sword movement. He thought that this dragon descent strike was the hardest and strongest. 

It seemed that the two sword strikes were much harder. Any slight deviation from the course of his sword or the shape of his body parts was enough to fail the strike. 

This was really a difficult way to battle. In battles, he couldn't stand normally to start the strike. He might even start the strike while he was in the middle air. 

When he thought about these normally occurring fight situations, he felt a challenge. Every time he started to use a strike, he had to adjust his position no matter where he was. 

After he finished mastering the second step, he had the final last step the strike itself. 

He didn't understand why there was a separate step for this small act. He had to just lay the sword on his target. What was difficult about that?

'You can't train the final strike in the air. You need to find targets to train on.'
