Capítulo 16: Weapon Selction(3)
There was a one-handed short sword in my hand.
"Are you going to pick that?"
"I not sure...."
I didn't have any answers for Ezio's question.
To be honest, even I didn't know what would suit me better.
In my previous life, I chose a sword as my primary weapon, the reason being that I wanted to follow after the sword saint who was an idol for me at that time.
But now, I am not so sure about it.
"We'll see..."
-Rasp
I unsheathed the sword from it's sheath and tried it out.
-swing
"It's quite good."
A sword is indeed a good main weapon, it's ease of use and light-weight which can be wielded by a single hand made it very popular.
Even in our class, there were more than one third of the students who choose sword type weapons as their main-weapon.
I was also proficient in using a sword-type weapons as I trained with them in my past life.
With only one hand, the choice of weapon for me was greatly reduced, so I didn't have any choice but to sway towards the sword.
Even then it wasn't the only weapon I trained in my past life, spear, daggers, hidden weapons, crossbow and many more....I didn't spare any effort in training with different types of weapons, which was the main reason why I was able to survive in midst of all the chaos going in the world with the demon invasion.
It would have been right to call me as "Jack of All and Master of None".
Anyway, As I was having a difficulty to choose a main weapon, a sudden thought came to my mind.
'Why Should I choose only one main weapon?'
Was there are a rule telling that I have to choose only one main-weapon?
"Instructor, Can I choose multiple main-weapons?"
I immediately asked the professor Keating to know if there is a rule like that.
"It is normal to have confusion in early stages, you can have secondary weapons if you are intres...."
"I want to use multiple main-weapons"
I didn't want differentiate the weapons as secondary or main, I wanted to train them all to the extent where I could bring out the full potential of them.
Professor Keating was taken aback my words as it was the first time any student has requested for multiple main weapons.
'Is he trying to show off?'
That was the first though in his head.
He had seen many arrogant students who had enrolled at the Freljord academy.
Controlled by their hormones, they would sometime try to pull stunts like this to attract the attention of others especially their fellow female classmates.
But seeing Eren's determined eyes, he thought otherwise.
'Is it arrogance or confidence?'
'No, he seem different. The way in which he is holding the sword and previously, the smooth movements he displayed while trying it out....is he perhaps a genius?'
Professor Keating has been observing the whole class from the start.
Particularly, Eren caught his attention.
The way in which Eren unsheathed the word and the smooth movements he displayed while trying it out, it don't go unnoticed by him.
'It is too hard to say that those movements are just a coincidence...how do I put it...I can see the diligence and hardwork in his sword movements.'
There was habit that Professor Keating had.
Every year when the freshmen's enter the Freljord Academy, he would divide them into three categorized based on his own view of them.
Among them were those with monstrous talent, the so called the geniuses, who could learn everything without much effort. Like Zephyr for example.
The second kind were the ones who even if they try very hard to learn something, they end up being mediocre due to their poor talent in that area.
And then there were the third kind who didn't even try even if they had the talent.
But looking at Eren, Professor Keating couldn't place him in any of the above.
He looked like a mediocre student, his talent based on the results of the entrance exam was also not much impressive either.
But even then looking at his resolved eyes now, Professor Keating felt like he was different.
He was among those who try to learn everything while desperately trying to survive even if they lacked the necessary talent.
'He is the fourth type.'
He created a new category in his division for Eren.
Although he had many questions and wanted to converse more with Eren, as an instructor, It wasn't his place to pry into the personal life of his students.
"Well, there is no rule that says you can't have multiple main-weapons. It is just that we normally suggest training in a single path as it is more efficient. You can pick multiple main weapons if you want."
"Okay, then including this sword here..."
I went ahead and grabbed a spear. It was weapon that I wanted to try out in my previous life but couldn't due to my handicap.
As I stabbed the spear forward, the sound of metal piercing the air could be heard.
"A Spear"
Placing down the spear, I went forward and grabbed the weapon that no one has yet to pick among the freshmen.
"And this Gun"
I picked at a magic powered gun.
"I will pick these three."
