10 Make A Be (2/2)

…

”Hold it steadily,” General Guo properly instructed. ”Directly place the weapon vertically.”

Listening to the General's specific instructions, Rin quietly narrowed her eyes towards the chosen target ahead of her.

In front of her was a small fluffy wild rabbit.

It's deep glistening eyes stared down as it gnawed gently on a small patch of grass. Completely oblivious it as about to be killed.

Rin calmly stared at the rabbit, however, just as she was about to shoot retreated the bow.

”I can't kill such a cute thing!” Rin whined.

Sighing with evident frustration, General Guo gently pinches the spaces between his fierce brows.

They had been doing the exact thing for an hour and a half.

Whenever the General reasonably assumed Rin would shoot he saw how her light eyes would narrow dangerously low and dim slightly.

However, a possible minute later the young girl would piteously cry, stating how the beloved animal was too innocent and cute and didn't deserve to die.

Just as he had realistically expected Rin to act, the General could only sigh with evident disappointment. She may have been skilled in martial arts, but she was nevertheless just an ignorant little girl.

”At least try shooting it,” He argued stressfully.

”Nu-uh!” Rin vigorously shook her head.

”What do you think you've been eating this whole time?”

Confusion showed on her face before slowly it instantly formed into unspeakable horror. Which then gently turned towards possible guilt, then a fierce scowl as she stared fiercely at the General with justly accusing eyes.

The little girl was staring at him as if he were a discovered murderer...

Thinking to give up, a sudden idea popped into the General's head.

”Didn't you say you didn't wish to go hunting for your own food rather than eating something you didn't earn?”

Going silent Rin looks down at the ground with a pout. After a while, she slowly bobs her head.

”Then shoot it,” He said with slight smugness.

Noticing the hint of gloating in the General's face, Rin's emerald eyes flashed darkly before vanishing back towards their innocent light.

”Fine! But Rin wishes to make a bet with the General!” Rin huffed.

Arching a large brow the General stares at Rin curiously.

What could a little girl possibly wish to bet on?
