Watching Snake Bite on Youtube

"Why is he coming after your life young master Daquan?" said Miya as she tried to process everything I said to her.

"How would I know? He's vicious and conniving, and I barely survived his sneak attack. He was clearly after my life with that sneak attack. I will have to train myself in secret to not fall to the plotting of others. My father was right when he insisted I practiced the family Champion techniques," I said.

"You've matured young master Daquan, hopefully, you take this lesson to heart. Humans are cunning and vile, and can never be trusted," said Miya as she gathered up the herbs and headed outside the carriage.

It seemed like Miya really hated humans from her outburst. I couldn't fault her for that though, If I was being enslaved by another race I wouldn't have the kindest words to speak about them.

Now that Miya was gone, I had all day to study battle skills before I went off into my evening excursion. I sat within my bed meditating, thinking back to the times I had spent with my father and how he had instructed me on Champion skills.

"A Champion, is a fighter who must know his way well around the battlefield Daquan," said my father as he sat in front of me with his shirt off.

"Although our breathing technique is the core of our being, we still need to practice battle skills to properly use the strength gained from the breathing technique. The skill I am going to teach you today is Snake Bite, it is the skill I use the most in combat."

"With this skill, you can bring out an explosion of strength and speed to send out a mighty blow to your foes. This skill can be used with or without a weapon, although it is most effectively used with a weapon."

"Watch now as I perform Snake Bite for you. Pay close attention to every movement I make performing it from my breathing, to the movement of my body, to the movement of the muscles in my arm, and even to the way my strength explodes out!"

"Snake Bite"

I watched as my father breathed in like he was performing the snake breathing technique, but it was only one breath. He then tensed up all the muscles in his chest and abs, like he was flexing. Then he pulled back his arm very fast as his arm grew about 10% bigger. Although it was fast, I could tell he slowed it down just enough for me to see the intricacies of the skill.

It was like a ripple effect, from the breath he took in, to the muscles tensing in his chest, to muscles in his arm exploding in size. All this was the wind up for him to perform the skill. He then released it on the wooden dummy he had in front of him, which shattered to the power of his strike.

"That is the Snake Bite skill. It takes a lot out of me to perform a skill like this. I can only use it once per arm, during battle. To use it again I would have to take a short rest after combat. If you tried to use it again without resting you would end up damaging your body. If timed properly in combat, you can down powerful foes with this skill," said my father as he wiped down the sweat on his face after performing the skill.

I replayed him performing the skill over and over within my mind. It was like watching an educational video on youtube. I could focus on every detail to understand all the intricacies of the skill. As my understanding of the skill grew, I eventually heard a ding within my head.

[Snake Bite Skill Learned!]

I returned to the present and noticed most of the day had gone by as I replayed my father performing the Snake Bite skill. So I could learn skills not only by performing them myself but also by watching others perform them if I saw it enough. This was great knowledge to have.

If my youtube like memory only worked on new things I experienced, then I would be able to learn the skills of others by watching them use it.

I thought I had hit the jackpot for a moment before I watched the following notifications pop up from the heartless system.

[Related Skills- Youtube Record & Youtube Memory.]

[These skills may be unlocked in the Dragon Shop for 500 Dragon Points each!]

I'd have to put off my dreams of learning new skills I saw like watching youtube until I could come up with the Dragon Points to unlock Youtube Record and Youtube Memory. Once I got those I'd have an Eidetic memory, a common skill enjoyed by victims of Truck-Kun.

Now that I had snake bite I could be assured of my success while journeying through the forest. I might even be able to take on a Rank 2 magical beast with this new skill! I'd have to test it first to find out how strong it was though.

I practiced my garter snake breathing technique once more.

[Gained +.23 Str +.23 Agi +.23 Vitality]

[Daquan. Str: .86, Agi: .96, Vit .96]

I gained a full cycle of the technique this time, the initial use, and the recovery cycle. In another day, I would be stronger than the average man!

But where was Miya at? She should be here with my dinner by now.

[Daily Quest Issued: Add +25 gold to your Dragon Hoard.]

[Reward: +1 Dragon Points]

[Warning: It's ill advised for a dragon to ignore maintaining his Dragon Hoard.]

I needed that gold to sate the greedy dragon system. She should have been back after going to sell my items and now she isn't even back after supper time. Something doesn't add up here.

I would have to forgo my plans to stay low key to find out what happened to Miya. This stinks and her being missing reeks of Colton Sharpe!
