Chapter 175 - A Husband's Learning Speed Is Unfathomable!
Kyoya did his best to not show any signs that might expose him.
He was aware that someone was spying on him thanks to his divine energy, but Kyoya had no means of finding the spy and was rather amateur when it came to this aspect.
His steps were unhalted and it was the most that Kyoya could do.
However, Kyoya has been spending some time with the assassin while looking at his moves deeply. The technique to hide his presence was something that piqued Kyoya\'s interest ever since the first day, so Kyoya was sometimes trying to reproduce it through his game system and The Assassin Craft.
From what he perceived, this was just one of the concepts that belonged to the movement technique of The Assassin Craft.
It was foreign subject for Kyoya, but he once felt he might of the movement technique thanks to his system and wife. It felt nice to jump around with special ability behind it as it not only relied on the speed.
The Assassin Craft\'s movement technique hid one��s presence and skills. It was technique that casually made the assassin guide Kyoya out of the Grooma Kingdom without anyone getting bothered by them.
They also went deeper and deeper into the unknown lands completely unbothered by others.
It was a great technique, so Kyoya indeed wanted to grasp it as fast as possible. It also would make his current mission easier and increase the pace of his progress. Of course, Kyoya felt like he was already close to grasping the next level of Knife Thrust.
\'My Knife Thrust… is silent and so is its energy… It\'s no longer golden-red sparks that expose my location, but quiet and killing technique… If I somehow take this silent concept to course throughout my body…\'
It was just a theory, but Kyoya was thinking of ways to bring a birth to this technique. Since it was a strong and particular craft, Kyoya would need to use one point from the All Creation System if he wanted to go for the easy route.
However, not only he didn\'t have one point, he also wanted to learn the technique with his own strength. It would be more rewarding and fulfilling, so Kyoya focused deeply before reaching his meeting spot.
\'This is… Did I do it?\'
As the unknown attention disappeared for a while, Kyoya questioned himself inwardly. It just happened too abruptly, but the feeling of someone spying on him truly disappeared as if he managed to learn something new!
He simultaneously increased his speed to blend more within the residents, but soon after, the unknown eyes\' landed on him yet again. It was a bother, but Kyoya couldn\'t be more thankful.
It was a good time to train something new to surprise the assassin later.
However, it seemed like the first try was a fluke as Kyoya couldn\'t repeat the feat for a second time. He was also close to the meeting point, so from this point onward, it was the assassin\'s job to take care of him.
As if Kyoya\'s inner thoughts called him, the assassin\'s presence appeared next to Kyoya causing the unknown eyes to cease to exist. It felt strange because they didn\'t even move a spot yet the eyes couldn\'t find them!
Kyoya turned his own eyes to the assassin who was smiling at him cheekily.
"Already trying to learn Hide Control?"
"Hide Control? I thought it was a movement technique?"
"Movement technique… If you were to call it a movement technique, then I would say it\'s just a part of Hide Control. It\'s good that you already can show signs of using this concept, but focus on Knife Skills for now. Once you grasp these, it will be easier for you to play with Hide Control."
"Understood."
Kyoya, the assassin and the cat appeared in a familiar part of the Grooma Kingdom. It was an area where Kyoya had been hunting for a week and his gray cloak and mask were already on the dead list here.
The adventurers who were waiting for their tasks to be done were nervously looking around. They just needed some more time and their journey back to their own respective floors would secure their safeness.
Of course, the reason for them to sweat and bit their lips like that was Kyoya.
He couldn\'t wipe out their parties, but it was clear that he could kill a few of them. It also seemed like he was using them as training bags, so it was too humiliating for them as well.
It has to be also mentioned, but most of these people were here just after ending their missions. It was too stupid for someone to attack them near the Grooma Kingdom, but some weirdos appearing from time to time was bound to happen.
Not only they felt like using their items and treasures would be wasteful, Kyoya\'s death would only make things easier for others while bringing nothing at all to their inventories. He was just an assassin and his equipment might be worth some money, but would it be truly worth it?
Wouldn\'t they also expose themselves to other adventurers who could use this situation in a quick and tricky manner?
While the adventurers were swallowed up by their own thoughts, Kyoya equipped in his grayish clothes came closer. He also went against the assassin\'s words and tried to use the \'Hide Control\' concept yet again without any knowledge.
What he knew was that \'Hide Control\' could be divided into many concepts, so using this as a small boost, Kyoya managed to hide his presence for some time.
Enough time to close distance and use his Knife Thrust to end the mission!
The assassin who saw it for afar muttered with the cat close to him.
"He learns so fast… Should I just pass everything I know at once to him?"
Meow!
A cat let out her meow for the first time which surprised the assassin slightly. After he glanced at the red beast, his eyes returned to the husband whose knife was just utilizing the new concept and technique!
"I guess I should."
