"The dagger should be held like this, so that even if you don't need to use much strength, the dagger will not fall off."

In the utility room, Raymond carefully taught Arya how to hold the dagger step by step, changing the way she held the dagger, and said:
"If you hold the dagger like you did just now, it will take more strength to hold the dagger tightly to prevent the arm from slipping when you swing it... But in that case, as long as the time is a little longer, all the fingers will become stiff and lose their strength."

Raymond picked up a dagger himself and showed it to Arya. Then, he personally adjusted Arya's grip.

Arya did feel different instantly. It was obvious that Raymond just made some small adjustments to his fingers in his grip.

"It turns out that there is such a thing...it seems that the holding method is almost the same, but with a little change, it actually becomes different."

"Well, remember this grip first." Raymond nodded.

After Arya was almost used to it, Raymond said again: "Your current grip is an overhand grip, and then there is an underhand grip..."

Then, Raymond taught Arya how to hold underhand, and then explained to her the difference between the overhand grip and the underhand grip.
"The overhand grip and the underhand grip are different, with different advantages and disadvantages... The overhand grip is like holding a sword, with the tip facing forward, which can make your attack distance slightly longer, but with such a short dagger, generally It won’t grow too much…”

"With an underhand grip, the attack distance is basically the distance of your arms. Although it is shorter than the overhand grip, if you attack with an underhand grip, you can better utilize the strength of your arms and use it in attacks..."

"For assassins who use daggers, they are all about killing with one blow, so they basically use the reverse grip method to make more use of their power. Therefore, when fighting the enemy, they always grab Seize the opportunity to attack and kill the enemy with one blow."

Arya nodded as if she had some understanding, "So, Raymond, you are saying that when fighting with a dagger, don't attack easily. Once you attack, you must use the power of thunder. You must kill with one blow, right?"

"Not bad!"

Raymond nodded, "Because the dagger is too short, if you can't kill the enemy with one blow, then you may not be able to dodge the opponent's next attack!"

"I see." Arya nodded again.

"But..." Raymond suddenly changed his subject, "A weapon ten centimeters long is as powerful as ten centimeters long, and a weapon ten centimeters short is as dangerous as ten centimeters short... For opponents who use long weapons, As long as we get close to them, their advantage will be lost."

"Hmm~"

Arya blinked and looked at Raymond with a puzzled look on her face: "But, we are carrying out the commission and dealing with monsters, right? They shouldn't have the habit of using weapons, right?"

"Cough cough cough..."

Raymond suddenly coughed in embarrassment, and then said with a serious face: "I mean just in case! Just in case! It's only been a few days since the incident with the 'Black Wind Group' bandits, have you forgotten?"

"Although the commission we accepted is to deal with monsters, don't forget that there are still many people who are greedy for profit, and there are many robbers around who want to attack us adventurers and rob us of our belongings!"

When Arya heard this, she instantly thought of the adventurers killed by the 'Black Wind Group'.

Yes, although they were dealing with monsters and had no intention of attacking people, those bandits were not.

Those robbers only attack people and rob them of their belongings, which makes no sense at all.

"Arya, you have to remember that although we have no thoughts of harming others, for our own safety, we must beware of other people's thoughts!"

Originally, what Raymond wanted to say was, 'You must not have the intention of harming others, and you must have the intention of guarding against others.' Unfortunately, there is no past life in this world. In the language of this world, that's the only way to say it.

"Yes, I understand!" Arya nodded seriously.

Seeing this, Raymond was also very pleased.

However, at this time, Arya looked at Raymond with curiosity and said: "But Raymond, why do I feel that you seem to know a lot, and what you say makes sense. Why didn't you notice it before..."

"Just like what you just said, 'Although we have no intention of harming others, we must have the idea of ​​guarding against others.' I feel that people without certain experience cannot say this."

It has to be said that Arya knows Raymond very well and is quite keen. She immediately felt how eloquent Raymond was today.

And when Raymond heard what Arya said, he also felt that the words he just quoted from his previous life were indeed insights that only people with certain experiences could have.

"I actually saw this in a book...it made sense, so I wrote it down."

Raymond immediately explained, "I have this habit of reading books. If something makes sense to me, I will write it down so that I can avoid detours in the future."

"So that's it." Arya suddenly realized, "I will read more books and memorize more sentences in the future."

"Ha ha……"

Raymond laughed, but he didn't want to stay on this topic for too long, lest Arya would notice something, so he said:
"Okay, now that I have taught you how to hold two daggers, I will teach you how to use the dagger to attack..."

Raymond then began to teach Arya how to attack with a dagger.

Of course, it's more than that.

After all, teaching Arya the art of melee combat must not only involve daggers, but also the use of daggers must be coordinated with other things.

Such as footwork and reaction speed.

However, reaction speed can only be trained in actual combat, so after Raymond teaches Arya how to attack, he will personally go to the field and engage in actual combat with her.

Of course, it's still early days.

……

Somar.

Somael is the largest border city on the southern border of the entire Kingdom of Atlantis. It is the frontline border city and the most dangerous place on the southern border.

Because after leaving Somaer, the whole area is filled with monsters.

This is the forefront of fighting monsters. Here, there is no commission to kill monsters. As long as you can go out and kill monsters and bring back the designated parts of their bodies as proof, the guild will issue corresponding rewards to you!
Therefore, in the border city of Somare, there are so many adventurers. In the entire Somare, there are more than 50 people, and [-] or [-] of them are adventurers, accounting for up to one-tenth, which is an exaggeration.

For example, the small town of Waiters where Raymond and the others are located is considered to be on the border. After years of development, the population has even reached one hundred thousand, but the number of adventurers is only about 2000.However, there are many adventurers in the border city of Somare, which often means more chaos.

After all, the group of adventurers is a mixed bag, and fish often make up the majority. Therefore, various bloodsheds often occur, and even the knights there cannot control them.

Especially some adventure groups composed of dozens of adventurers are even more arrogant and domineering.

However, why are there so many people living in the border city despite the threat of monsters and many unruly adventurers?

Even the villages around the town of Waiters are often harassed by monsters and suffer losses, but they have not moved away. Why is this?

It's very simple. In order for people to live on these borders, Atlanta has lowered the various tax rates at the borders a lot, only half of those in other places.

In addition, any losses caused by attacks by monsters will be borne by the entire village, so even if there is danger, it still attracts batches of Atlantis citizens to live in these dangerous places.

If there are residents living in it, then monsters will attack the village. If monsters attack the village, then an adventurer's guild will need to help them issue a 'commission'. If the adventurer's guild issues a 'commission', then There will be adventurers coming to accept the commission and earn rewards.

Where there is an adventurer's guild, there are adventurers!
Once there is the protection of adventurers, people will feel that the safety factor of this place has improved, and the tax rate here is low, and then more people will move here.

So, slowly, a town developed.

The most dangerous places have the most adventurers and are also the places with the lowest tax rates.

It evolved into today's border city 'Somar'!
The Adventurer's Guild of Somare is located at the southernmost exit of the city. It is connected to the entire city wall of Somare and faces the most dangerous outskirts of Somare.

If monsters from outside want to enter Somare, they must first break through the entire Adventurer's Guild.

The Adventurer's Guild in Somar is different from the town of Waiters in that the Adventurer's Guild in Somar is a building integrating accommodation, taverns, restaurants, etc.

Unlike the one in Waiters Town, it is just a place used to handle various commissions.

Here, the Adventurer's Guild operates 24 hours a day, and the city gate is always open.

Because you can find accommodation and restaurants in the Adventurer's Guild, and the prices are relatively affordable, many adventurers live directly in the Adventurer's Guild for convenience.

Of course, there are too many adventurers in Somare, and the Adventurer's Guild cannot accommodate so many people.

In addition, there is no need to accept commissions to kill monsters, so there are generally not many adventurers in the adventurer guild hall in the morning.

Of course, this is not a lot and is only relative to Somaer's Adventurer's Guild itself.

At this time, many adventurers were already sitting in the tavern on the third floor of the Somar Guild. They were talking loudly about their experiences in the outer lands.

Some say they are lucky enough to find the main ingredients for high-grade potions and then make a fortune.

Some people say that they are unlucky. They clearly saw rare weapon refining materials, but when they were about to pick them up, they found a powerful monster. Not only did they not pick it up, but they were injured in the end.

Of course, most adventurers talked about how they encountered some powerful monster and then killed it with their teammates.

You can see that almost all of the people speaking loudly here are 'Silver Level' adventurers!
This kind of 'Silver Level' adventurer, which is not common in Waiters Town, is quite common here.

Of course, the number of adventurers in Solma is more than 20 times that of Waiters Town. It is certain that there are more 'Silver Level' adventurers than Waiters Town.

But the proportions are actually not much different.

"I asked, is there any breaking news recently?" a silver-level adventurer asked looking bored.

"Is there any breaking news? The only breaking news is that a few days ago the 'Golden Lion Group' went to the 'Sea of ​​Trees Forest' to defeat the 'King of the Green Forest'. In the end, the crusade failed. Half of the members were killed by the 'King of the Green Forest Tree'. 'Kill, even the deputy commander Green Rom died there."

"What a tragedy! There were 32 people in the entire adventure group, eight 'gold level' adventurers, 16 'silver level' adventurers, and eight 'bronze level' adventurers. Only five 'gold level' adventurers were killed by the 'King of the Green Forest' ', ten 'Silver level', one 'Bronze level' escaped."

"It can only be said that they think too easily of a 'Platinum-level' commission to defeat the 'King of the Green Forest'. Their adventure group doesn't even have a 'Platinum-level' one, so they dare to entrust it to someone of this level." Platinum-level commission, isn’t it courting death?”

"That is their commission to promote to the 'Platinum Level' adventure group. There is nothing they can do about it. After all, the members have been fixed. If you want to be promoted, you can only accept this kind of commission."

"Let me tell you, there is no need for them to insist on promoting their adventure group to 'Platinum Level'. With the strength and level of their 'Golden Lion Group', it is not impossible for them to accept 'Platinum Level' commissions."

"There are too many people, and ordinary 'Platinum Level' commissions cannot support them at all, so we can only try to improve their adventure group registration and receive higher-level 'Platinum Level' commissions, so that the rewards can support them."

"So, it's better for us to be an adventure team of four or five people. If we accept a 'silver level' commission with a higher reward, we can live a comfortable life."

"Yeah, I don't understand why they have to recruit so many people in their adventure group... just to compete with other adventure groups for the limelight?"

"Okay, stop talking, lest others hear..."

Someone quickly reminded me.

They are just a 'silver level' adventure team of five people, and they can't afford to offend a 'gold level' adventure group like the 'Golden Lion Group'.

Even if the 'Golden Lion Group' is hit hard now, it is not something they can resist.

So they didn't dare to talk about the "Golden Lions".

However, if you don’t talk about their faults, you can still talk about their other things.

So someone whispered: "I heard that 'Luna' has quit the 'Golden Lion Group'."

"Is that the 'Ice Wolf Tribe' girl warrior, Luna, known as the 'Flower of the Ice Field'?" His teammate beside him whispered, seemingly very surprised.

"Yes, it's her! She is also the only 'Bronze-level' member who escaped from the 'Golden Lion Group' encirclement and suppression of the 'King of Green Trees'!" (End of Chapter)
