It must be said, indeed, he was quite miserable.
But that’s not the point, the point is, Duanmu Huai could feel that there was some kind of special strength hidden within Jiezi’s body, a strength that even he, as the God of Destruction, could sense, carrying a cold and sorrowful aura… It’s just that Jiezi herself seemed to be unaware of it.
What kind of strength is this? There shouldn’t be that many people with special abilities in this world.
Seeing that Duanmu Huai did not speak for a while, Jiezi looked up at him with confusion, and Duanmu Huai gathered his wandering thoughts back.
“Oh, sorry, I was just thinking about something… Uh… regarding your battle… what I want to say is, the idea is good, but… it’s very susceptible to unnecessary external distractions. To put it plainly, your heart is not firm enough.”
“That’s right, take our recent duel, for instance. You used your shooting to limit my movement, then attempted to strike the final blow on me, but why were you slow?”
“Because… I didn’t expect Sir Judge to charge directly at me…”
Jiezi replied softly, in the recent simulation battle, just as Duanmu Huai said, she had successfully used her shooting to seal off the opponent’s movements, then all she needed was one more powerful strike for victory. However, to Jiezi’s surprise, just when she was ready to make her move, the mech controlled by Duanmu Huai had charged right up to her face, this sudden action caught Jiezi off guard, preventing her from firing on time, and she ended up having her weapon chopped off by Duanmu Huai’s axe.
And then she was counter-killed.
Duanmu Huai shook his head.
“You see, at that time, I was locked down by your shots; whether I dodged or charged, I’d be hit by a bullet, so why not charge? Charging could still possibly give me an opportunity, while dodging would lead to a certain death, so was there a need to ask?”
“The same goes for you, why hesitate? Shouldn’t you have just shot straight away? That’s why I say, you’re easily influenced by some unnecessary external factors. Regardless of whether I charged or not, you were going to shoot anyway. So, if you hesitated, you were just wasting time. Especially on the battlefield, it’s a matter of life or death, don’t think too much, just follow your first instinct.”
“… I’m sorry, I still don’t quite understand…”
“Let me put it this way, if there’s someone in front of you that you must kill, and just as you are about to kill him, suddenly someone takes a potshot at you, what would you do?”
Upon hearing Duanmu Huai’s question, Jiezi fell into thought, but then Duanmu Huai reached out and tapped her on the head.
“Stop overthinking it! That’s the person you have to kill, right? That’s the person you would take down at any cost, so why do you care about anything else? Just go for the kill! Don’t think, don’t hesitate, what are you afraid of? If you’d give up in such a scenario, it would show you never really wanted to kill him, wouldn’t it? If you really wanted to slay him, would you care if you could be shot dead? An eye for an eye, you’d still come out ahead, understand?”
After hearing what Duanmu Huai said, Jiezi seemed to have an epiphany. She nodded and looked at Duanmu Huai.
“Thank you for your guidance.”
After she said this, Jiezi turned and left, while Duanmu Huai stretched and prepared to go back to rest. However, just at that moment, another person approached from the corridor nearby.
“Hello, Sir Judge, do you have a moment? I would like to talk to you,” the person said as he approached.
With his blonde locks falling slightly out of place–Captain Quaddro looked at Duanmu Huai and began to speak.
