Supreme Archer: Taking The Game's Weakest Class To The Top

Jake, Mary, and Robert left the capital after picking up a casual quest from the restaurant.

[Delivery for Red Moon Restaurant(Common)—you have been tasked with a delivery quest! Hunt and deliver the meat of the danger zone monsters—Leavie Bear—to the Red Moon Restaurant in 24 hours! Any type of meat from Leavie Bear will do.]

[Reward: Income based on the quality and quantity of the meat. Friendship with the Red Moon Restaurant.]

Since it was such a casual quest and Mary had a plan to have fun with him, Jake didn't bother picking up the quests his master had advised him to do when going to hunt monsters.

He didn't think he'd spend much time there, too.

"What's your class, Robert?" Jake asked. His sister's boyfriend wore normal, outside clothes, so it was difficult to tell what kind of class he wielded. With the various combinations possible due to the main and subclass system, Robert could be anything, even a mage with his toned physique.

Robert was a pretty handsome man now that Jake stared at him from such a close distance. His brown hair was cropped, his blue eyes contrasted with Mary's green ones, and he was taller than her, which surely helped their relationship.

He was a kind man both in and outside—his amiable smile was his main attractive feature.

Just like Jake, his skin was slightly tanned from working under the sun.

On the other hand, Mary was obviously similar to Jake. Their faces and chins were sharp and attractive.

Jake's hair had grown slightly longer because he didn't have time to cut it down. Hers was so long it'd be difficult to be a close combat player. Upon noticing mischief or something fun, her green eyes would turn into twinkling jades, confusing people or her prey.

That said, Jake, Robert, and Mary's best friend were already apt at reading her mood and those eyes. None of them would really get lured into her games!

She was also tall and matured so much that Jake, who was usually mistaken for someone older, stood out as a younger man around her and Robert.

"I have two battle classes. The main one is a tank, and the subclass is a swordsman. People call that off-tank," Robert explained. His defenses and strength were high, but his speed was like a turtle, so he developed his swordsman class to deal percentage damage of his opponent's max health, meaning his every slash or thrust weighed tons.

Mary chimed in, "Robert's my white knight!"

"Yeah, who asked?" Jake said before turning back to Robert, "It's odd that those statues force a swordsman as one of the main classes. I find it weird."

Robert nodded, "Same. But it's easy to pick up another weapon and turn the main class swordsman into something else, so that's not much of a problem."

"I guess," Jake agreed with him. "Those Leavie Bears are around level twenty, right?"

"Yep, scared?" Mary's eyes glinted as she found an occasion to tease her brother.

Jake, however, shrugged and casually replied, "I need to level up my fourth summon. I got her shortly before leaving the tutorial island, so she needs levels to stay on par with others. I'll use this casual quest to level her up. We aren't going to form a party, right?"

"Of course not! You're going to have it way too easy with the party buffs!" Mary snickered.

The party system allowed players to form teams and see each other's levels and stats. It was a common feature in games that didn't need much explanation.

Nonetheless, Robert and Mary were a part of a famous guild. They were in the primary team of the said guild, so their levels were high enough to compete with the top guilds and players from the top ten.

In fact, if Mary wanted to fight with Grin Grid—the only famous and known archer player—she could contest her on the same ground.

Besides their levels, the couple had passive skills that worked with the party system, blessing their team with various buffs. For that reason, leveling up as fast as possible was worthwhile, and those who spent time developing their stats like Jake weren't that better than others.

Of course, each style had its own advantages and disadvantages.

Jake had spent so much time on the tutorial island that he was so far behind in the game's content that he mostly followed others' footsteps.

"No need for your party buffs," Jake smiled. "Right, remember when I told you my Odin is the cutest? Wanna see him?"

"Yes!" Mary turned around and looked at her brother with shining eyes. He couldn't help but think that his sister could indeed get adorable. He wouldn't share that with her, though.

Robert also stared at him with an expectant expression.

He didn't know many players who had pets, even though he was a high-level player. This was because the beast tamer class wasn't popular for a few crucial reasons.

One of them was that the tamed monsters could easily die. Jake, however, could summon pets! His companions could die and return to him with a cooldown, so they were immortal.

Meaning developing them was easy and worth the time!

Another reason was that the intelligent monsters were difficult to tame. Intelligence obviously played a significant role here.

Jake's pets, however, were intelligent from the start—another advantage he had over others.

It could be said that he was a summoner, not a beast tamer.

And summoners were nowhere to be seen yet; at least Robert hadn't seen anyone.

Once Odin, Wukong, Ender, and Medusa took over their respective spots, Jake leaned down and took Odin into his arms like a lovely dog.

He mimicked the embrace Ingrid did to Odin. Alas, he lacked two pillows that Odin had come to appreciate in the opposite gender.

Odin, however, caught Mary's jade eyes. Her interest in him was as clear as day! It was the same interest Ingrid had showered him with, meaning he would be able to cuddle with this woman!

Odin woofed, reciprocating Mary's interest.

At last, he was in her nest, feeling a strong but enjoyable cuddling. He was named Odin, a mighty name, so Mary's excessive strength and obsession with the fluffy white cloud wasn't a problem for the wolf boss.

"So cute! Ah, so cute and soft! I want him!" Mary buried her face in Odin's fur, shaking from the excitement. "Leave that idiot and come to me, Odin!"

Odin woofed, laughing.

That was when he noticed two eyes of darkness looking at him from above.

Ender was perched on Jake's shoulder, his small frame like a toy attached to him. His eyes, however, spun with vortexes as enormous pride and disappointment in Odin dwelled within them.

With his head up, Ender glared at the wolf with a countenance that could be described in one word—Pathetique.

Pathetique! Ender screeched.

A new kind of confusion swelled Odin's little heart.

He glanced at Jake and found out that Jake didn't mind this friendship at all.

That was when Jake noticed Odin's eyes.

He smiled and whispered, "Bite her hand."

If confusion was a disease, Odin's heart would have been green or violet by now. What did his best friend and master mean by that?!

Does he really want him to bite this woman's hand—the woman that smells like him?

Ender was also surprised to hear that.

He didn't know about the siblings' relationship, so he imagined that Odin was on a cover mission and was meant to wound this woman from the inside!

Well, in the current case, from her nest.

Ender closed his eyes.

The baby eagle didn't tell himself off.

He had too much pride for that.

Meanwhile, Odin's confusion had made way for his loyalty to Jake. He heeded Jake's order and widened his jaw to sink his teeth into Mary's hand.

Alas, the level difference caused him to feel like he was chewing on a stone!

"Oh, is that how wolves play? Come on, try to get my blood!" Mary grinned.

Odin added more strength to his attack, his teeth and jaw aching.

Finally, he had to give up. He couldn't hurt that woman, which caused him to feel like a disappointment. Looking up, he saw Ender's closed eyes, misunderstanding the baby eagle.

Odin's pride shattered into pieces at that moment.

Because he entered the battle mode, he also had a five-minute cooldown, which soon snatched him to Jake's tattoo.

'Oh, damn! I went too far!' Jake realized his mistake upon seeing Odin's last glance and tears brimming in his eyes. He swore to fix that on their second meeting in Viktor's workplace.

It shouldn't be difficult as Jake would bring some meat and explain how his relationship with Mary works. In the worst case, Jake would call for Ingrid to cuddle with Odin.

"No! Odin!" Mary exclaimed. Odin was gone, and she had no fluff to cuddle with!

Jake sighed and said, "Well, playtime's over. I want to level up Medusa."

He raised his hand and showed the curled baby snake on his palm.

Medusa opened her eyes for a moment, which shone golden.

She gazed at Mary briefly before shutting them down and returning to her nap. She'd wake up upon the call from her master.

Mary asked, "Why did her stare feel like she was looking at a trash?"

"I don't think she was mistaken," Jake sneered.

Meanwhile, Robert and Wukong became quite good friends as Robert showed him attention and invited him for a short talk with a few scratches landing on the baby monkey's head.

"They're always like that," Robert said, "You must tell that Odin when he comes back."

Wukong nodded.
