CH105 Weapon Testing
***
The first weapon Alex reached for was… a knife.
As a self-proclaimed member of the Brotherhood, it only made sense to go for the most concealable weapon on the rack. And what better choice than the most universal tool found in nearly every culture in existence?
Grasping the knife, it felt right. Almost like it had been born to rest in his hand.
Intuitively, he knew how to move with it—how to make it respond to his whims.
Stab. Slash. Cut.
Alex executed the basic movements fluidly. The more he moved, the more familiar the weapon became.
Then he understood why.
Battle Intuition.
The trait born from his Velkar True Name, granting him instinctive familiarity with any weapon he picked up. At the very least, he could wield it beyond the level of a novice—well enough not to injure himself and to actually do some damage.
"How do you feel?" Earl Drake asked.
