The Martial Unity

Time slowed down in Rui's vision as the Martial Prince nearly froze in place.

He was in a bit of a dilemma.

He just realized that he might be able to help the Martial Prince grow, substituting experience. Normally, this was something that each Martial Artist could only do for themselves, this was not supposed to be something that could be done for anybody by anybody.

That was partly why the Martial Path was solitary.

Nobody could walk it for anybody else.

Yet Rui realized that he might be able to. He might have been perhaps the only Martial Artist who could walk their path for them due to the nature of his Martial Art. In particular, the pattern recognition system of the VOID algorithm was what he thought could help alleviate the prince's problem.

The reason for this was that Rui could easily copy this style if he wanted. In a manner similar to Ieyasu, although not nearly as well. Ieyasu could literally embody a person, and Rui could capture all the patterns and movements of Prince Raijun in the Mind Palace, create predictive models, and then replicate those.

He could simultaneously get rid of the imperfections and micro-flaws in the man's movements. Doing so would allow the prince to literally look at a perfected version of himself.

It would allow him to reach Squire candidacy without any experience at all.

For some reason, Rui deeply disliked that outcome.
