Capítulo 7: The System! Part-2
'Never invite anyone home or go to someone's house. I don't think I want to sit down in that weird posture...' I immediately concluded. My eyes scanned the room for any storage space and I closed the door upon finding none. Marking that room as the living room in my mind I moved on.
A couple of tentative steps and I arrived in front of the second door, I opened it to be greeted by a kitchen. It was a small one, with a sink and some cooking utensils on a raised slab of stone, along with a big ass fridge that looked out of place. A small dining table that was full of unwashed bowls was not a pretty sight. Deciding to deal with this later I slid open the third door which was also my destination.
The bedroom was messy. I was expecting it to be though so it wasn't something too bad, the wardrobe was half open with a couple of similar-looking t-shirts and cargo pants that I was wearing.
'Right, anime logic and having to save budget over drawing multiple outfits. I don't understand why It bled into real life here.' I thought but my attention was quickly taken over by a couple of scrolls that were lying on the table, half-open, seemingly forgotten.
A couple of quick steps and I felt the rush of wind as I almost stumbled, I needed to get used to my new speed it seemed as my eyes read through the Kanji written on the side of the scroll.
'''Beginner Academy Taijutsu Style'''
...
'Thank fucking God!' I screamed internally as I grabbed onto it and stared at the scroll. When nothing magical happened and no window popped up to automatically gain the skill, the only way I had left was to open the scroll and try to learn whatever I could.
...
'''Beginner Academy Taijutsu Style'''
'''The Academy Taijutsu Style is a defensive Taijutsu Style that emphasizes weight distribution and the first step during any combat scenario. In a pure Taijutsu battle, the Academy Taijutsu Style aims to take advantage of any holes or mistakes an opponent makes during approaches and extensions...'''
...
The scroll was quite long, the description of the Taijutsu Style was quite concise and in addition, 15 different katas were shown on the scroll. There were 5 attacking moves, 5 defensive moves, and 5 movement moves. Although the descriptions were quite clear, it was also quite clear that this was nothing but a concise lesson, not something that would teach you the style without a spar and maybe some adjusting your stances.
Not like I had a choice, this was my last chance without taking any drastic measures so I took the scroll and put it down on the table once again. There was enough space to go through the katas so I quickly read the description of the first kata, dignifying it with something more than a jab would be illegal. Still, the simple jab was a lot more complicated according to the scroll.
I took a step back and took a deep breath, suppressing my nervousness I adjusted my footing according to what was shown on the scroll. I wasn't much of a fighter, at least I think so as memories of my past life were a bit fuzzy. Still, my body felt a lot better, a lot freer as I hopped a couple of times to get a feel for it.
'Alright let's try this.' I focused and pushed my right foot backward slightly, the force to move forward needed to be generated by my dominant foot so I let my body weight fall on the right leg and pushed. It was a short burst of speed, on a level of control that seemed inhuman as I skidded forward.

[PHY Lv 28 {2/28000}] {+2 Exp}
[AGI Lv 24 {1/24000}]{+1 Exp}
[COR Lv 6 {1/600}]{+1 Exp}
...
Small words, this time in English appeared in the middle left corner of my vision as I lost control of my steps.
"Ugh... Fuck" I cursed as I tumbled and used my hands to stabilize myself. I turned over and sat down on my ass. The little experiment told me exactly what I feared. However, having the advantage of double stats meant that I could hit harder and could take more physical damage. I'm unable to control the speed with which I'm moving.
'The blur wasn't as annoying as not being able to move my legs fast enough to regain my footing. I need to slow down if I want to learn this...' I concluded. In the dash forward just now I had dashed forward by pushing as hard as I could.
'Still, at least the exp for the stats means that I could train them quite easily. I can understand the meaning of PHY and AGI, but what does COR mean, surely not corruption... maybe Coordination? There was a perk in the initial selection choice that was dependent on this stat.'
I stood up and walked back to the scroll, even though the first attempt was a disaster, I still got some experience on what to do. After confirming the stance and the way to approach it once again.
Another deep breath and I focused once again. Copying my earlier stance I still pushed with my right leg, this time though I tried to control the amount of strength. My left leg managed to gain a good amount of footing this time as I turned slightly using my left leg as an axis and managed to deliver a somewhat decent jab to thin air.
...
[COR Lv 6 {3/600}]{+2 Exp}
[Beginner Academy Taijutsu Style Lv 0 {2/50}] {+2 Exp}
...
I took a sigh of relief at the fact that the fact that the promised system worked. Even if I have to just repeat this move 50 times I would likely gain some proficiency in the Academy Taijutsu Style and that would make my life a lot easier.
'Alright, now it's time to grind, I need to get my Taijutsu Style to level 1 before moving to the training targets and trying to do the same with learning how to throw shuriken and kunai's...'
