639 Murdering the three kings Part 2 (2/2)
Eleanor's room appeared slightly bigger, its length had exceeded two yards. Situated at the end of her room were numerous human-shaped shooting targets. These targets were made from different materials, there were some made of metal, white rock, thundercloud wood, and divinecherry wood. Eleanor was naturally gifted in magic, but her strongest skill was the Elf Emperor Arrow.
As she lacked materials in the past, she could not produce an elf short bow, so she could only use magic against her adversaries. Now that Saleen had produced a few powerful elf short bows for her, Eleanor began restorative training.
Nailisi did not knock, she simply entered Eleanor's room, causing Eleanor to be a little displeased. Eleanor tolerated it, knowing that Nailisi was Saleen's contract creature.
”Did Saleen ask you to look for me?”
”Kind of. Sister Eleanor, I would like to learn the Elf Emperor Arrow.”
”No,” Eleanor rejected flatly. Other than this skill, she could teach Saleen or Nailisi anything else.
”There is a condition.” Nailisi smiled smugly. Looking at her expression, Eleanor hesitated. Eleanor had to abide by the rules of the elfish race, but it was not like the Elf Emperor Arrow had not been imparted to other people before. ”The marquis exchanged that bangle to learn my archery skills. But… I had my own motives at that time, I wanted to bring the marquis back to the elf plane and make him join the elfish race.”
Eleanor already knew that Nailisi was a demon and it was impossible for demons to learn the Elf Emperor Arrow. Nevertheless, Nailisi was sent by Saleen and Saleen would never do things he was not confident of.
From her bangle, Nailisi took out the elf short bow which Saleen had handed to her, causing Eleanor's jaw to drop. Her mouth was almost fully opened, any further and her chin would get detached.
”Teach me the skill and this will be yours.” Nailisi dangled the short bow, looking full of herself. Only Nailisi could make such an expression without looking detestable because of her looks. If anyone else did that, Eleanor might have blew her top and walloped them already. Nailisi's current appearance was that of the Goddess of Myers and the image of the goddess would stop people from producing evil thoughts.
Eleanor inhaled deeply, then said weakly, ”I agree.”
Nailisi squinted as she looked at Eleanor, thinking to herself, ”The sound of her breath is very much like that time when Sister Sika was on the bed!”
”It's great that Sister has agreed to it.” Nailisi addressed Eleanor as 'Sister', but in actual fact, Nailisi could be Eleanor's ancestor. Not everyone could live for ten-thousand years in the sealed environment of a temple.
Receiving the short bow from Nailisi, Eleanor was stuck between feeling melancholy and joyfulness. ”The quality of this bow can rival that used by the emperor. The material of this bow can contain any kind of power. A mage can use this as a magic staff, but a swordsman can use this to release the Sword Aura. Judging by its material, this short bow can withstand the power of a Golden Grand Swordmaster's Sword Aura.”
This was an almighty elf short bow, Eleanor did not even dare use it to fire arrows immediately. She was afraid that the arrow would create a huge opening in Saleen's temple.
The essence of archery was in penetration. If an elf's archery had reached its peak, an elf could even shoot an arrow from one plane to another. Archery like this could destroy the power of planar rules.
”A pity, this is such a good bow, but I cannot craft better arrows,” Eleanor sighed.
The feather arrows produced from divinecherry wood were terrific, but if they were used to exemplify any skill from the Elf Emperor Arrow, they would disintegrate at once. Even on the elf plane Saleen's crafting ability was also considered to be very proficient. Be that as it may, Saleen could only allow the divinecherry arrows to be disposable items.
Nailisi's heart lurched, ”Saleen said that he will make another short bow for me, which meant that Saleen still has adequate materials. Given Master's character, if he doesn't have a huge amount of such materials, he wouldn't give it away so easily.”
”Heh, Sister Eleanor, if you are willing, Master can help you produce a quiver of feather arrows. You have to do me a favor though.”
”What favor? If it is killing someone, I will not do it.”
”Definitely not killing people.” Nailisi answered earnestly, ”The three kings are spirits, not humans.”
”Okay, then when should I act?” Eleanor also knew that there had to be a pretty big problem for Nailisi to come look for her. Nailisi was much mightier than Eleanor, she would not need Eleanor's help.
”We have to wait for three months. During this time, I want to learn the archery skills. By then, Sister's feather arrows will be produced. Master isn't willing to participate in this matter, when the time comes, I still have to depend a lot on Sister's powers.” Nailisi said with a grin, thinking to herself, ”If you conceal anything from me and do not impart your mightiest skill, it will be exposed when we are facing the three kings.”
