INFINITE PATHS: THE RAGING PHOENIX - Season 1 Episode 22

That stance was too basic, and it was similar to the one that Rain saw when he faced an MMA fighter in a training session. It was basic and effective for newbies… still, Rain was more used to the way of attacking and defending in a boxing style.

Attacking and defending simultaneously in boxing requires a combination of skill, strategy, and timing. It involves executing offensive maneuvers while maintaining defensive awareness to minimize the opponent’s counterattacks.

Rain began by maintaining a balanced stance and staying light on your feet. Position yourself in a way that allows you to generate power in your punches while being able to quickly evade or block incoming strikes.

He also Incorporated defensive techniques such as slipping, bobbing, and weaving to evade his opponent’s attacks. These movements allowed him to create angles and openings for his own offensive strikes while simultaneously avoiding potential counters.

Instead of solely focusing on defensive maneuvers, he looked for opportunities to counter his opponent’s attacks. When they attack, quickly identify the opening and deliver a well-timed counterpunch while simultaneously moving his head, upper body or stepping out of the line of attack. This allowed him to both defend against their strike and launch an offensive counter.

While it seemed inefficient and not useful for his style, Rain did it seriously since it was something that he had to master as soon as possible in order to graduate faster.

Still, Rain had a bit of a hard time after a while. The running took quite a bit of his stamina, and then punching and blocking in a way that he wasn’t used to also tired his upper body a lot as well.

Once the lesson was over, Rain barely could raise his arms… as expected, he still had a long way ahead of him… maybe it had been a mistake to focus on increasing his Wisdom that much.

“There is a place where you can clean yourselves on the right side of the corridor; you all have fifteen minutes to do that before the next lesson if you are heading to another lesson,” Leion said. “Until the next lesson.”

Rain wondered if the people of the school were expecting a bit too much from the kids of nobles, but maybe that was a good way for them to grow outside of their homes since they probably had been sheltered a bit too much.

Rain hurried to the area that Leion mentioned and then saw a large shower room there. It seemed that it had been used recently, probably for the kids of other years. Either way, Rain was surprised to see that it worked just like showers from Earth.

After five minutes, Rain finished cleaning himself and changed his clothes. The place also had soaps and towels.

“At least the monthly fee is being used well,” Rain thought.

Once he cleaned himself, Rain went to search for the place where he would have his next lesson. The first lesson of history… since it seemed that he knew where he was going, a lot of the other kids followed him. In the end, they quickly found an empty room where an old man with gray glasses was waiting for them.

“You may sit. No… by order of arrival, you should sit on the first line of chairs from left to right,” The old man said.

Rain wanted to sit on the back again, but the teacher stopped him. It was a pain, but it was better not to do or say anything weird now. The kids didn’t make a fuss when they saw Rain in the front, the instructor didn’t seem that harsh, but they decided to behave.

“Open your notebooks. I want you to take notes about my lesson and do some research by yourselves in the library if you feel the need to,” The instructor said. “My name is Reminem, and I will be your History Instructor.”

“Reminem… are you serious?” Rain thought while furrowing his eyebrows.

It seemed that Rain’s mother wasn’t the only one who had a weird naming sense. In any case, it seemed that Rain and the others didn’t have to look at the teacher; listening and taking notes was the only thing that they had to do.

“The history of the world starts fifty thousand years ago; at that time, the world was divided into six realms,” Reminem said as if he were starting to recount a story. “The world was split into the human continent, the dragon continent, the magic continent, the beasts continent, the demi-humans continent, and the sea folk realm.”

It seemed that Rain was going to learn a lot… even though he had lived in that world for five years already, he had only heard about the magic people and the dragons, and he didn’t hear that they had their own continents before. As far as he could remember, they were neighbors sharing the same continent. Please visit fr𝐞𝐞wn.𝒸o𝔪 website to read fastest update

In the ancient times of that world, there was a great mystery surrounding the origins of its species. The beings inhabiting the world, including dragons, magic people, beasts people, sea-folk, demi-humans, and humans, found themselves coexisting without the knowledge of each other’s existence.
