Chapter 88.3

CHAPTER 88: LIBRA FORTRESS – FIRST FLOOR (PART 3)

The Knight Ghost groups they encountered began numbering more than ten members when Mira took particular attention to Sasori’s mobility. The corridor was only three meters wide, with a stone golem and a Dark Lord covered in blades fighting in it already, but she easily jumped amongst them moving from one place to another. Her movements were swift like a spider’s on its web, and the precise attacks she performed like that were accurate like a scorpion’s.

「By the way, Sasori. Where did you learn to move like that?」

They had progressed well past half the maze, their combined attacks were getting more elaborate and Sasori’s speed kept increasing. Now she was not only running on the walls, but her feet could even stick to the ceiling as she ran. I did not remember any skill like that during the game period, so Mira was the most interested in this skill out of all the newly developed ones.

「Back in Karasawa, my village. It’s a tradition there to teach that skill to everyone when they turn a certain age.」

Sasori was in the frontline, but she jumped to the ceiling, walked a few steps back and landed beside Mira as she replied.

「So you’re telling me that everyone in your village can jump and run like you?」

Another Knight Ghost could be seen fading into nothing after being slain further ahead, as Mira turned to Sasori and asked another question.

「Mmm, not quite. Everyone can walk on walls or ceilings, but everything after that needs more specialized training. Depending how much talent someone has also dictates if they get to learn more advanced skills. Also, apparently I’m the most talented person in the village.」

Sasori smiled pridefully after adding the last bit, then jumped back to the ceiling and walked forward. Mira watched her with deep interest, feigning calmness as she finally asked what she really wanted to know.

「That’s amazing. I’d like to try doing that too, could you teach me?」

Mira’s eyes continuously peeped at Sasori..

「Mmm, since I was the best in the village they gave me a lot more liberty with things like this, but they told me, or rather begged me to never teach anyone this skill, so I’m really sorry.」

Sasori jumped down to the ground again and patted Mira’s head as she apologized.

「Hm, that’s too bad.」

Mira ignored her disarranged hair that covered her eyes as she muttered that while pouting. But Sasori looked happy seeing Mira like that, the person Uzume had recognized as a wiseman’s pupil was showing interest in her personal skills.

「But maybe if you go visit Karasawa they might teach you there. As long as you prove yourself to the elder. I think I remember exceptions like that happening before.」「Oh, ohhh! Are you sure?!」

It was very rare, but there had been times their secret skills had been taught to outsiders. As soon as Sasori recalled and mentioned that, Mira showed an instant reaction.

「Yeah, at least I was told so. Though being approved is rather hard.」「As long as there’s a possibility it’s best to attempt it. So anyway, where’s this Karasawa village?」

Mira smiled happily as she continued making questions.

The four did not even look at the other paths before they took the stairs.
