Path of light

Chapter 30 30. Martial Arts

The terrace at home became a place for Roy to practice martial arts.

However, even if those coherent martial arts skills were broken down into a series of simple movements, it would still be difficult for Roy...

Under the afterglow of the setting sun, Roy practiced the dismantling movements alone on the terrace. Each movement slowed down several times, but he was still extremely stiff.

After a while, the sweat on his forehead wetted his golden hair, and the hair became limp and stuck to his forehead, making it very uncomfortable.

Roy ran downstairs and got a towel to wipe his sweat. When he walked onto the terrace again, he found Moira standing on the terrace next door.

She rarely wears such tight-fitting corsets, and the ties on her sides have not had time to be tied into beautiful knots, but this does not affect the quiet beauty of the Dark Moon Elf on her body.

She even tied her hair into a ponytail...

Moira imitated Roy's dismantling movements and completed them easily.

Seeing Roy peeking towards her from across the terrace, he held his hands on the railing and said with a smile, "Is this what you're doing? I see you're practicing very attentively, so I couldn't help but take a second look..."

"That's right, you did a good job, but I can't do it no matter what. I always get out of shape every time I do it."

Roy felt that he was a bit stupid. Moira could learn something by watching it a few times, but he still wasn't very good at it after practicing for a whole day.

"Don't be discouraged. Let's practice together so we can correct each other's mistakes..."

Moira said to Roy on the terrace here, her face turned red perhaps because of exercise.

"OK!"

Roy suddenly felt that this boring exercise didn't seem so hard anymore.

Moira stood on the terrace opposite and began to try to learn Roy's non-standard disassembly moves.

The process was naturally very pleasant, but when Sabrina came back from school at Elf Academy, she walked onto the terrace and saw Moira's disassembly actions. She couldn't help but frown, hesitated for a moment, and left without saying anything. Go downstairs.

Sabrina took a shower downstairs, changed into a looser skirt, and walked onto the terrace again.

She crossed her arms, leaned against the balcony door, and said to Moira:

"Moira, none of your dismantling movements are standard. I suggest you stop and correct your movements."

"Is it wrong?" Moira glanced at Sabrina and asked humbly: "Sister, what exactly is wrong...can you point it out for me?"

With Sabrina's guidance, Roy suddenly remembered that there were indeed a few things that were wrong.

But those movements were basically in places that his arms and thighs couldn't reach.

In order to complete these movements, Roy lowered his standards, causing his movements to become out of shape.

With Sabrina's guidance, Moira quickly completed the correction of these movements, but Roy couldn't do it no matter what.

Sabrina couldn't help but take a dig at Roy on the patio next door:

"Your arms and thighs are really too stiff. Didn't Instructor Nora tell you that this kind of body is not suitable for learning Elf Body Technique?"

Roy stood on the terrace with some embarrassment and broke off his stiff arms, but unfortunately it still had no effect.

Sabrina took a few glances and said to Roy unceremoniously:

"The ligaments on your body have not been fully stretched, so your movements are not standard."

"Once these dismantling movements are not done properly, when you put all the movements into coherent movements later, there will be obvious sluggishness, and it will become more difficult to adjust as you go to the end, which will eventually make your movements seriously out of shape."

"You are really not suitable for practicing martial arts. It's better to give up before you start."

Roy did not respond to Sabrina's words and continued to clumsily perform the disassembly movements.

"Sister..." Moira protested softly.

Sabrina glared at her and was about to turn around and go downstairs, but Moira grabbed her skirt with her hands.

She turned to stare at Moira...

"sister……"

Moira begged.

"I don't have that much time, so I'll just help him this time!"

Sabrina said to Moira, but also to herself.

Roy was still trying his best to straighten his arm when he suddenly found a white and soft hand holding his wrist. Her fingers were cold...

Roy turned around and realized that Sabrina was already standing on the terrace of his house, and was standing silently behind him.

Although the terraces of the two houses are adjacent to each other, there is at least a width of more than five meters in the middle.

Roy subconsciously looked at her long legs, but did not notice that Sabrina's face was slightly red.

However, Sabrina was not polite and pinched Roy's arm back hard. The ligaments were still very painful under the force, and Roy couldn't help but scream.

"Don't move, keep it up..."

Sabrina personally guided Roy in the disassembly movements, while Moira lay on the terrace watching the fun.

After finally learning these dismantling movements, it is even more difficult to connect the movements together. Each movement has a specific trajectory.

Every time you exert force, you also need to have strict requirements, and you need rhythm and rhythm...

Roy finally understood what instructor Abbott Nora said in the first lesson. It seemed that it was not an exaggeration at all.

This is just the continuous movements of the simplest move...

Roy didn't dare to think further.

Fortunately, Sabrina demonstrated the move several times and was able to complete it easily.

She is tall and slender, and when she demonstrates these basic martial arts skills slowly, it feels like she is dancing.

Unlike Moira's nimbleness, Sabrina's movements are very powerful, and every movement is full of pressure.

Roy finally understood that the last time Sabrina beat him up, there was absolutely no luck...

However, Instructor Nora has not taught coherent movements yet. Even if Roy can't do it, he still has time to continue practicing.

After this painful exercise, Roy lay imageless on the terrace floor...

"Are those Silver Moon elves still causing trouble for you?"

Sabrina was not in a hurry to leave, and sat on a chair nearby and asked Roy.

"Well, we had a fight today!" Roy said.

Sabrina hesitated for a moment before saying, "There is a mutual aid group for half-blood elves in the Elf Academy. You can tell them about your matter."

Roy shook his head and said, "I can solve it myself, in our own way."

Sabrina stood up, turned around and said to Roy: "Smart people don't refuse other people's kindness."

After saying that, she walked downstairs. She was not prepared to jump back from the balcony here.

"Thank you for the compliment……"

Roy's voice came from behind.

Sabrina resisted the urge to roll her eyes at him and quickly left Roy's yard.

…

The moonlight outside the window made the sea in the distance sparkle.

Roy sat on the single bed in his room, feeling extremely sore in every joint in his body.

In addition to two books, there is also a bottle of life potion on the table by the window.

Roy actually wanted to drink the bottle of life potion and try the potion's effect.

But since the pharmacy owner said that the life potion was not very effective in eliminating bruises and swelling, Roy resisted this idea.

So he thought of the 'secondary healing technique', but unfortunately he hasn't learned it yet.

If it wasn't too late, he even wanted to run to the temple and let Jasper give him a simple treatment.

"By the way, didn't I learn the 'Low Light Illumination Technique'? High Priest Reed said that this magical technique also has a weak healing effect."

Roy slapped his forehead and suddenly thought.

So he quickly took a few deep breaths to calm himself down. He recalled the drawing methods of the divine patterns in his heart, and recited those few prayers silently in his heart.

After everything was ready, Roy stood in the room, first drew the curtains, and then closed the door.

Silently, he used the power of holy light to draw the divine pattern, and then silently recited those few sacred prayers.

The divine pattern formed a rune pattern woven by the holy light. As the last prayer ended, the rune pattern floating in the air seemed to be activated.

Right in front of Roy, the holy light condensed into a slightly warm ball of light, floating above Roy's left shoulder.

It was an extremely soft ball of light, which made Roy's room a little brighter.

Roy tried to control the glimmer of light to float upward. The glimmer of light was not blocked by the wooden board and rushed directly into the ceiling.

Ms. Belinda is sleeping upstairs. If she wakes up, she will not be scolded. She is a believer of the Moon God Cult...

Frightened into a cold sweat, Roy quickly let Shimmer fly back.

It was floating in front of him. Roy stretched out a finger and tried to touch it. It was a little warm, but his finger passed through the light ball without any hindrance.

Then Roy tried to condense a little bit of holy light into the tip of his finger, and used this faint holy light to touch the light group. In an instant, the shimmering light swallowed up the holy light at the fingertip, and the shimmering light flame exploded. After a flash, it calmed down.

This dim light couldn't last long, only about a quarter of an hour.

Roy stopped making other attempts. He controlled the dim light to get closer to his arm. The faint warmth shone on the pain of the joint ligaments, which indeed made the pain less.

Roy immediately lay down on the bed, letting the shimmering light float back and forth along his limbs. It felt a bit like electric roasting...

He didn't know when he fell asleep. When Roy opened his eyes and woke up, it was already dawn.

Roy got up from bed early. Although he felt sore all over his body, at least it didn't affect his activities like last night.

After getting dressed and seeing that it was still early for school, Roy decided to go shopping at the fish market on the pier. He hadn't eaten much fish recently.
