9 Ch 08.1 Longbow (2/2)

Duke's reply made Jason bewildered, there can't be so much change between two worlds. He called an archer. When the archer arrived he saw a hunting bow on him Jason understood the problem.

Jason looked towards Duke” Grandpa where these bows and arrows are made.”

Duke was a little worried now ' what mischief he plans now.' But upon Jason's consistent requests, he led Jason to the workshop where bows and arrows were made.

Reaching there, he found they have an extensive collection of different kinds of bows. But when he looked at arrows he asked bowyer ” Sir why they don't have metal heads.”

” Milord, the one with metal heads are costlier and their range is also low. Not much useful in hunting normal animals ” bowyer replied politely with a bow. He saw Duke came with him, that means the youngster must be extraordinary. Not many people had seen Jason, especially people in the military, so they didn't recognize him.

Jason surveyed the wooden plates kept to make bows and arrows then he decided on yew wood. He asked Craftsman to take a yew wood log and follow him. Duke was skeptical of Jason from starting . But decided to let him do whatever he wants till he didn't harm anyone.

In the royal garden, at one corner a small workshop was set up. Few people were pacing here and there carrying their recently carved bows to show the person sitting on ground and drawing some bow like images on ground using straw.

While drawing on beastskin was feasible , Jason felt uncomfortable when he tried to draw on it. Paper was costlier than gold so his grandpa denied his request.

He was trying to come with the design of a modern longbow, but steel is not present here so he chose a wooden bow and a arrow with a metal head to match it. This was the first part of his plan. 'He had to make an undefeatable army. Then conquer the world hahaha..'

After more than a hundred trials and a whole day of work. Bowyers were finally able to meet the expectation of their prince.

Now was the time to begin the second part of the plan.
