Chapter 509: Enemy's Turn

"Control your breathing, close your eyes and visualise your creation," Vulcan's words echoed in Ashton's mind, "It's not your meat to beat randomly. Construct a path, a plan, before executing your will."

With Phantom gone, there was little left to do for Ashton. Nirvana wasn't a threat to him any longer, so instead of dwelling on meagre thoughts of revenge, he decided to focus on honing his other skills. 

Although he wasn't the only one interested in the knowledge, Vulcan was so keenly imparting to him. Master Baiter also joined in, although he couldn't do much to keep up with the legendary blacksmith's pace. 

Vulcan's way of teaching wasn't conventional by any means. Instead of focusing on practical knowledge, he concentrated on teaching his students from a philosophical point of view. 

While others would teach their apprentice how to use a hammer and anvil, Vulcan would instead teach them why they should lift the hammer in the first place.
