Chapter 125 An archer
"Here. He entrusted this to me a long time ago hoping someone else would need it one day."
"He's at least smart for an old man."
Hall master Elara passed a certain wooden box with a golden crest carved on it to her.
"What's this?" Elio was obviously curious about this unique box on the table before them.
It was a pretty box, the crest on the box obviously belonged to Swordmaster of Yuta, but this box was quite lavish.
And, from how the hall master said she received it from him a long time ago, it was not like they knew Alex would come to get it one day.
Which meant this was a keepsake from her master, and not something she wanted to pass it on to someone that merely brought her a letter.
"This?"
She opened the wooden box, and resting inside the box was… a sword.
"...?"
A sword made from a purple metal, a rapier to be more precise.
"Well, this is a payment for something I taught that old man."
The sword was amazing.
Looking at it was enough for him to know just how amazing it was.
There were magical enchantments cast on it, there were stones and crystals that seemed to be much more precious than the sword itself, and resting on the red cushion inside the box, this sword seemed just as precious as the sword that she received from the Librarian-.
"...! Wait. Is this-."
"Shuuu. Don't shout like that dude."
Elio remembered what she told him about the certain special kind of swords that allowed her to use a portion of her power once.
And, from the looks of it, this amazing looking rapier was also one such unique sword.
"Yeah. It's like that one."
He did not know why the swordmaster had left something like this to an archer, but he knew now that she had it, she could use her powers in a dangerous situation once again.
And, it was going to help them when they were in that great jungle…
-Click.
Alex closed the box for now, and thankfully Misha was out looking at the archery hall with her mom and the little ones.
Sera was with them as well, so they could talk about business freely.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
"Well, that was all from my side."
Not that there was much left to talk though.
The letter she received explained a lot and she just had to follow her master's instructions this time and not ask many questions to this lady that even he looked up to.
She was not some low level foreigner as she seemed. As a unique being, she could tell this special person also had her unique circumstances.
"So…"
She was not going to ask her any questions about herself, about the special people she was with, or what she was going to do with that special sword. Still, she was not going to miss this chance to talk with her partner.
"Your archery."
She looked at the attractive man she was with.
He was not like those nobles she had seen, or even those like her father. But there was something unique to this man. She could at least feel that much.
"You used the sky and the color, I presume?"
"You watched us, hall master?"
They did not even sense her until she chuckled, so hearing she was present in that place ever since they started their little competition was quite unexpected to him.
"I did, and it was quite a sight."
Her office was a normal place.
It was just like any normal office with a desk full of paper and documents, some pictures here and there, some awards she might have received, a wall full of unique looking bows and arrows, and a window behind her chair.
There was nothing much in this small room, but thanks to the unique bows and those unique looking arrows that seemed more magical than a magic wand, this was no normal place.
And, as the person this special place belonged to, she was also no normal individual.
"I've heard Miss Alex was one of the creators of the device that you were using, so I expected that level of experience from her.
However, seeing you use that unique method was a different story."
She had used a bow ever since she was as young as the young girl they were with.
She was not as amazing as her teacher, the Swordmaster, but she could still see the difference in experience and raw talent.
"You can see the path… right?"
When it comes to archery, or any type of art that requires one to aim at something specific, eyes are one of the most basic senses that one needs.
A professional archer needed to aim at a target, specifically their certain weak points to get the best results. While on the other hand, even wild hunters could use a bow to shoot their prey recklessly while using their other senses.
They just needed to hunt the target, while on the other hand, archery was an art that used experienced fingers, a special eyesight, as well as instincts that one might not be able to develop with just life experiences.
"A path?" Elio did not know what she was talking about, but Alex had an expression of surprise.
"Wait? You can do that?"
A path was a line, a strong, a path, or an imaginary direction that someone who was highly experienced at something sees or naturally visualizes when performing their certain art.
"Do you mean the trajectory?" Stay connected via empire
He had no idea what she was talking about. But, if they were talking about whether he could see where the disks were going or not, Alex already knew the answer to that.
"Damn man…"
It wasn't that strange for him to see certain things.
He had experience in various fields and he was mainly a creator.
He could see the golden ratio when he was taking pictures, he could see the golden lines he was drawing a design, he could see the drawing lines and colors when he was painting, and he could see musical notes when he was composing something.
He could see numbers, he could see lines, he could see things that were hidden inside something else… [Patterns of the world] as he called it.
This was not something special to him.
But for the people around him… for the people who had worked hard for what they have right now…
"Seeing paths is not something just anyone can do, mister."
He had a lot to learn about this world. And one of those things was how this simple ability of his was something almost every single individual aiming for a specific Goal, or walking on a specific path wanted in their lives.
