265. Country of Sakura, Cherin and Seven Holy Swords [36]

Bacchus-san’s slash was too fast, thus it was not useful as an example.

In order to solve this problem, we improvised the training method slightly.

First of all, he unleashes an example slash as before.

「Sakura Blossom One-Sword Style – Sakura Flash」

The flash-like thrust runs in a straight line.

And right after that,

「Sakura Blossom One-Sword Style – Sakura Flash」

Rose unleashes the exact same technique.

An “ultra-high speed” slash and a “high speed” slash.

By looking at two different models of speed, all of us were able to learn the principle of the Sakura Blossom One-Sword Style.

At the end of the demonstration, they explained the “knack” of the technique to improve the training efficiency.

「The trick to Sakura Flash is… you drop the center of gravity with a “gui”, and then stab it like “zuba”.」

Bacchus-san’s explanation was hell to say the least.

(I understand that he is explaining seriously using gestures, but…)

All that comes out of his mouth are sounds such as “gui” and “zuba”.

Unfortunately, this was hardly helpful.

And then it was Rose’s turn to explain after Bacchus-san’s.

「There are three points when you unleash Sakura Flash. The angle of thrust, when to move the center of gravity, and the position of the pivot leg. First of all, the “angle of thrust” of this technique is not completely horizontal as it seems. The tip of the sword is slightly pointing downward. When you do it like that, gravity is–」

Her explanation was like heaven.

A beautiful voice that is easy to hear and a concrete, logical explanation.

Moreover, because she advances while confirming if everyone understood it, nobody gets left behind.

(Maybe Rose is cut out to be a teacher.)

Her explanations were that easy to understand.

To back it up,

「Hey, Rose. About when to move the center of gravity movement, is it good like this?」

「Aa, that’s really good. As expected of Ria.」

「Rose-san, should I position the pivot foot around here?」

「Let’s see… You’d better shift it to the left just a little more. Yes, that’s better.」

She quickly became a popular teacher. Ria and the president raised questions one after another.

I’m sure it was easy to ask her since they are the same sex.

As a result,

「U-Umm… Bacchus-san, may I ask you a question?」

「Sure, I don’t mind.」

I had to study one-on-one with Bacchus-san.

「The timing of when to move the center of gravity is a little hard to grasp. Do you have any advise?」

「Let’s see… Move it back when you pull the sword like “gui”, and move it forward when you push out your sword like “zuba”.」

「…Thank you very much.」

Unfortunately, it doesn’t seem to be helpful after all.

At any rate, it was very much like this that we devoted ourselves to the training of Sakura Blossom One-Sword Style.
