Quoted By:
The first cat appears slightly pudgy with thin limbs- the result of a sedentary lifestyle. He's slow and his feet are unsure under him, a simple dodge and slash will suffice for him. The second is stronger- with muscles bulging unnaturally; stretch marks indicating a chemically induced growth. He's sweating even without excursion. You find this strange- you think a member of the Consortium “warrior class” would be paid enough and given enough time to grow a good physique naturally. Then you see his muscle insertion points, the asymmetry in his predator eyes, the reliance on cheap chemical hormones- this is just the result of bad breeding, honestly.
Oh. You now understand the <span class="mu-i">true</span> purpose behind this training exercise.
You duck the first attack and respond with a slash too fast for him to react to- severing his throat and killing him. The artificial blood spills onto the floor with a satisfying, though still clearly fake, choking sound. The second one you advance and attack- attacking through his sloppy guard with quick stabs to the abdomen. You can guard you neck all you want, it won't protect the rest of you. In the span of a few seconds, you have dispatched the dummies.
