Training in the Forest

[Kojiro Ryuen]

(OOC: Well, not using the usual way I RP here...Hope I'm doing okay...

NOTE: Italicized words = Koji's thought/words he is speaking in his mind...)

A few days have passed since the young man had arrived in Ryube village, and the young man had been staying there for a while before he resumes his travels. Taking time to sit under a tree, the young man is suddenly attacked by Wild Boar.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The Wild Boar charges at Kojiro, but he quickly rolls to the side, forcing the board to run into the tree.

Kojiro: Tch...I was hoping to get some rest...

Kojiro draws his weapons and lunges at the boar cutting its side, but its skin was quite thick, preventing it from dying in on blow. The Wild Boar looks at Koji and rams the young man at his side, knocking the young man down.

Kojiro: Gu...That was careless of me...

The boar attacks him once moce, but Koji anticipates this and flips backward. Upon landing, he lunges himself forward and cuts the creature twice across the face with his weapons. The creature falls to the floor as Koji stores his weapons away. Brushing some dust of his clothes, he sits back under the tree he was under.

[Kojiro Ryuen]

Kojiro stands back up after taking a quick break from training. Taking in a deep breath of fresh air, he starts walking back towards the town. On his way back, he gets confronted with a Giant Snail.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Kojiro quickly draws his twin weapons and launches forward while clasping them in hand.

Kojiro: Get out of my way!

the young man jumps high in the air and lunges downward. As he swings his blades at the creature, the snail hides its head in it's shell, forcing the young man to miss. the Giant snail then launches it head out, headbutting the young man in the sternum. The young man flies back and falls to the ground.

Kojiro: Gah...How about this!

He rushes forward again, but the snail hides once more, forcing the young man to try attacking the shell. No amount of hits could break it though, and the monster hits Kojiro with the same method.Koji falls back again, his frames dropping to his knees. he looks towards his foe with colder eyes, his right hand glowing slightly with an ominous deep violet aura.

Kojiro: Sensei...Gomen, but I need to use this now...

He raises his right hand up, showing the sign of his rune on his hand.

Kojiro: Shadow Edge!

Extending his hand forward, he fires a black shadow like projectile towards the snail, slicing the creature up in one shot. Kojiro holds his arm as he feels some energy recoiling back into his body. He stores his weapons once more, making his way back into the town.
