Chapter 1 – Preparations for the battle
- Learn to use your surroundings to your advantage. It doesn't matter how weird, bizarre or fucked-up it is, the battlefield may always give you an edge during a fight. You only need to know how to use it properly.
- Your uniform is, without a doubt, your best weapon. Knowing how to use it properly, you may stash about five times more than the usual in its holders (either they being original or personal adaptations).
- With the right amount of creativity, any and every object may be a proper weapon, just as any weapon may be able to fulfill any task besides the one it was originally designed to do. The same way a knife can be used to shatter a Grand Peco's knees, a crushed can is able to function as a throwing knife with amazing effectiveness.
- As you learned during the graduation exam, your body is a lethal weapon by itself. Everything you may need is a little "extra", like throwing needles on the sides of your shoes.
- An Assassin's life is drenched with blood, and our pride overcomes any other necessity. If you find yourself surrounded, keep fighting. If you're threatened, keep fighting. If you get captured, then you will REALLY have to take your fighting to the next level.
- You should hone your skills to the maximum whenever possible, especially if you find yourself able to practice other fighting styles. Nothing messes with your opponents' minds than seeing an Assassin taking the fighting stance of a Champion or a Lord Knight.
