153 Yales Expert Archery (1/2)
Yale wasn't frustrated by his continuous failing in hitting his opponent; he was pleased to find such a difficult target, it was far better than the ones he had used to train his archery.
”Why are you still chasing me? You can find other targets easily.”
The guy was scared as Yale didn't give up in chasing him; he knew very well that he couldn't win, but if Yale stopped chasing him, at least he was confident in reach the Top 10.
That was also the reason he was fleeing with all his strength; he hoped that the others would get defeated and he would be able to enter into the Top 10 before giving up.
Yale's precision was increasing as the time passed, he felt that he would be able to hit his opponent at any moment and that he would be able to reach the expert stage at that moment.
Yale had already turned into a deep trauma to his opponent; he would be unable to forget that persecution for years. For someone who had never experienced a real battle, being pursued by a kid who could kill him as long one on of the arrows shot by him would hit him was something difficult to endure.
Yale wasn't planning to kill him, but as he had difficulties to hit his opponent, it wasn't impossible killing him by mistake.
In that situation, Yale wouldn't be blamed; his opponent decided to struggle against Yale after he had forgiven his life once, his first attack to the leg could have killed his opponent in one shot if Yale aimed to the head or the heart.
The guy knew that Yale wouldn't be blamed for killing him. He just wanted to win some more time and enter in the Top 10; he would break the token at the same moment he saw the signal.
Sadly, he wouldn't have that chance as an arrow pierced his chest soon afterward. Yale had been aiming at the wings, but although he managed to change the direction of the arrow two times to hit his opponent, his precision wasn't good enough to hit the wing and ended in the chest.
Fortunately, although Yale had just hit his opponent's chest, he hit in the right part of the body, so the arrow didn't pierce through the heart.
”Break your token and ask for some healing pills outside. I don't have any intention to kill you.”
If that guy refused to break the token after that, Yale could kill him without worries; even doing nothing would end with the same result as a wound in the chest was still serious without affecting the heart.
Yale's opponent wasn't that stupid, even if Yale didn't shoot another arrow to him, he knew that he couldn't waste time or he would die, so he finally broke the token and got teleported soon afterward.
Just at that moment, the signal appeared in the sky, and a system notification appeared on Yale's head. After Yale's opponent left the area only ten participants were left in the training camp; the poor guy ended in the eleventh position, he was near to his objective, but unable to reach it.
***
After the guy appeared outside the training camp, an Elder Rank expert from his family, who was that guy's grandfather, appeared and took out some pills to heal him.
That expert didn't hate Yale; he knew very well that Yale could have killed his grandson, but he had shown mercy. Furthermore, his grandson was the one who was greedy and didn't break his token after knowing that he couldn't win.
Sebe noticed about Yale's objective after Yale managed to hit his opponent, he didn't fail to notice the fact Yale had reached the expert stage in archery at that moment. Sebe had no doubts about the fact Yale had been using his opponent as a training item to improve his archery.
”Your little brother is really a training madman; he is still training even in this situation.”
Sebe said those words as a praise, the objective of the training camp was to train the young generation by letting them battle against others of the same generation, but in the end, it turned more a show of strength than a real place for training.
”Well, he just came here to train as he needed some opponents to let him improve. Against me, there is too much difference to have a real battle, and Yale and Wyba refuse to battle among themselves.”
Sebe laughed as that reason fitted Yale very well, Sebe hadn't felt that Yale was the type who just wanted to show his strength to turn famous in the area.
”So, isn't he looking to win?”
Aiwai was scared when Sebe asked that, because she knew that Sebe had betted a lot of money for Yale, even herself had betted a lot of resources for him.
