Sasha began to try and focus while also try and mimic Genji's movements to see if she could perform the same technique that he did, taking his strange explanation into mind. With the Breathing Technique still active, and thus Sasha's MP still dwindling a bit, it would be a small bit easier to try and understand what Genji meant with the power it gave her possibly being a part of the technique, so moving over a Kobold to test it out, she would raise one of her blades and try to bring it down onto a Kobold. --- Sasha Focus: 13 - 26 Focus - 5 Skill Bonus = -18 --- Power. The Breathing Technique helped her energy and also her power flow more evenly and freely through her body with each breath. Through basic intuition and the feeling of this through the Breathing Technique, Sasha would be able to understand that power wasn't just in the muscles. It was within the body as well. With that sharp exhale she would let all of her power both inside and outside become raw brute force in the next moment, immensely increasing the strength of her swing by using power that normally wasn't applied in an ordinary sword swing, power that she had, but power that she never used for this purpose. --- Sasha Sword Slash: 40 - 22 Melee Weaponry - 5 Skill Bonus = 13 Hit! (Max Damage) Damage Dealt: 70 --- The slash was powerful, very powerful indeed. With the Breathing and Ki Techniques adding more damage, plus the sword mastery Skill, not to mention Sasha's rather precise strike, she was able to essentially barely pull off the same thing that Genji did, slashing through the Kobold in one single, super powered slash, the beast's HP draining all the way down with that single attack before it disappeared into nothingness just like all of the rest, unfortunately leaving behind no Item when it vanished this time either, Item drops most likely being a Luck based thing if one applied Game logic to this. Still, the other benefits Sasha reaped from her success were two levels in Short Sword Mastery, a level in the Breathing Technique, and two other windows. [hider=Window] A Skill has been created through a Special Action. Through practicing and successfully performing the first of the Ban Family Sword Techniques, the Skill to use this Technique freely, the Daichizan, has been created. [/hider] [hider=Daichizan] Daichizan (Level 1: 0/100 EXP) (Active: 15 MP): +1 Ban Family Sword Technique. +1 Str. The Daichizan or Earth Slash, the first technique of the Ban Family Sword Technique. This Technique is one of brute power, meant to cleave through the very earth itself, allowing you to harness all of your Inner and Outer Ki (MP) as explosive, brute force added to your current physical strength for one single attack. Your Str score is increased by 50% of your Focus Score the moment you use the technique, plus it deals 25% more Damage than a regular attack. [/hider] Genji, after Sasha performed the technique, clapped. "Great job, you seem to have the basics of it down. Harnessing the strengths of both your Inner and Outer Ki and letting them flow through your body to give yourself an explosive bit of brute force for a single attack. A technique that lets you use all of your strength at once instead of just your physical strength. Its a useful technique against opponents with low physical strength, especially since it could cut through weaker opponents' defenses. However, it is just a brute force technique, and brute force when met with greater brute force is easily stopped." He then looked towards Silas. "Why don't you give it a try next?"
