The Martial Unity

Rui should have seen it earlier but his amusement at the purpose of the technique had created a blind spot around it. If he had treated it as a normal technique, he would have seen this application of it instantly, but because he looked down on it subconsciously, he wasn't able to.

The potential of this technique, to him at the very least, was extraordinary. As long as he could master it and perhaps tweak it slightly to suit his needs, it should not yield poor results. This was especially taking into account the fact that this technique had an extremely high affinity with his enhanced cognition.

('Stupid.') He cursed himself. ('It was almost obvious, yet I missed it because I was being cocky.')

Still, he was glad he saw it now in such a timely manner. He picked up the scroll without any hesitation as he added it to his pouch.

Four techniques down, two more to go.

('The next two-to-three techniques need to enhance my versatility and variety.')

The first four techniques strengthened his foundation and aimed to mitigate the VOID algorithm's weakness. Now, he needed to expand his capabilities to give him more options and choices in combat. He had several ideas of what he would have liked.

"I could really use a boost in range." He muttered to himself. If he gained the ability to hurt his opponent from a distance, life would be a hell of a lot easier.

Also, among all the fields his Martial Art didn't possess, a longer range was the most optimal counter for the greatest number of Martial Art and combat styles. Meaning, by giving his Martial Art long-range capability, he would increase the number of Martial Art he could adapt to more than he could if he mastered some other technique or some other field. Long range was vital, and remarkably powerful in many scenarios.

He even knew what technique he would have liked to master.
