My Elf System

Chapter  52. NET {11}:- Archery 2.

Orion calmed his mind and noticed the pendulum arm of the target which swings in a consistent, smooth arc, moving the target back and forth continuously.

'It's movement is predictable but I will still need to time my shots carefully,'

"Are you ready?"

"Yes," Orion replied and Ira signaled the other officials to begin casting the wind spell.

Within seconds, the wind spell was cast, creating a moderate gust of wind from the target to Orion.

'The wind is not so bad. I can still hit the target,'

'The arrows might break and the bowstrings might cut but I should still be able to use it,'

'I have to make sure it doesn't break or cut because I doubt I'll be given another bow and arrow,'

'I was only given three arrows,'

'If I were to be given more chances to try again, I wouldn't have been given just three arrows,'

'Anyways, there's no point in testing if I will be given another bow and a new set of arrows,'

'I just have to make due with what I have,' Orion made up his mind and flowed mana into the bowstring, hoping it would give it the strength it needed not to break.

He also placed three arrows coated in mana on the bowstring instead of one.

His actions shocked Ira who was standing behind him and watching his every move.

Everyone watching from around the kingdom were also surprised as well to see the prince doing this.

'Miss Ira didn't say anything about not using mana. This means it's allowed but they choose not to inform us,'

'Which is why I'm aiming with three arrows and not one,'

Orion took in a deep breath and takes aim at the pendulum target, his eyes locked onto the bull's-eye.

Meanwhile, back in the castle where, Carl, Axel and a few other elves were watching the prince, everyone's eyes were focused on the screen as they watched how serious and focused Orion was right now.

Of course, the female elves around the ages of seventeen were all gushing at the sight of how cool their prince was.

"Aww, it's so unfair,"

"I know right? I wish I had a little brother like the prince,"

"Me too. I would do anything for him if he were my little brother," n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

"I'd marry him if he were my little brother,"

"Me too,"

"Me three,"

"Seeing the prince looking so serious makes my body all tingly,"

"His handsome face is a crime,"

"I could stare at him all day long,"

"Hey, everyone look. The prince is about to.....uh?"

"Huh? Does Prince Galdur wishes to fire three arrows at once?"

"Really?"

"That's impossible," A male voice sounded in the background.

"Only pros are able to fire three arrows at once," Another male elf sounded from the background.

"Does this mean His Highness is also a pro?" A female suggested with eyes sparkling in admiration for her prince.

"Wow, so the prince is even as talented as a pro," Another female added.

"Prince Galdur is so amazing,"

"He's the best,"

"I love him even more,"

"You can do it Prince Galdur,"

"Prince Galdur!! Prince Galdur!! Go! Go! Go!!" The ladies continued to cheer Orion on, meanwhile the male clenched their fists with tears streaming down their cheeks.

The boys could see how excited the girls were but what hurts them the most were how some of the girls with beautiful big breasts were jumping and cheering the prince on instead of them and they could only wish the girls could cheer them on as well.

"Everyone look!!" A female pointed to the screen and everyone watched as Orion placed the three arrows on the bowstring, drawing the mana coated bowstring to its limits.

They watched as Orion focused on the bullseye, with his eyes burning with determination.

"Will the prince be able to do it?"

"I don't know, but I hope so,"

"Me too. I really want Prince Galdur to hit all three arrows in the center,"

"I really love how Prince Galdur is so young and yet he isn't afraid to do anything. I want him to win so badly,"

"Me too. If he wins, Prince Galdur will smile and I really love seeing him smile,"

"You can do it Prince Galdur!! Go! Go! Go!!"

The girls cheered him on as they watched Orion reveal a remarkable display of control and skill by releasing three arrows simultaneously, each one flying from the bowstring with incredible speed and precision, shocking everyone who were watching around the kingdom.

The officials' eyes widened as the arrows pierce through the wind, unaffected by the gusts they cast. Even the audience gasped in amazement, witnessing Orion's incredible archery skill.

The three arrows flew in perfect formation, their trajectories converging on the bulls-eye with unerring accuracy. The pendulum target shudders with its motion momentarily arrested by the force of the arrows' impact.

The entire Kingdom erupted in cheers as they witnessed Orion hitting the target.

Of all the contestants they've watched so far, Orion was the only one who shot all three arrows at the same time.

If their young prince wasn't the best prince in the world, then no one could ever be compared to him.

Orion turned around to look at Ira whose eyes were still widened in shock by what she had just witnessed.

Ira notices the prince gaze and instantly calmed her mind before addressing him.

"Well done Your Highness, that will be all for today. Your magical card should be updated with your points very soon. Please, step towards the magic circle over there,"

Orion nodded his head in understanding before thanking Ira, then he walked over to the magic circle.

Right after he stepped on it, Orion was instantly teleported to the room where he would be spending the night.

Looking around, Orion noticed he was in a room with a single bed, a bedside table and a small couch for him to sit on.

'Hmm, aside from all these, i can't seem to find a crystal ball anywhere in the room,'

'Does this mean they're trying to respect every contestants privacy?'

'Anyway, it certainly would have been better to check out the rankings before coming here,'  Orion uttered in his thoughts before plopping down on the bed in front of him.

'I guess I should check the amount of points I have gained so far,'

Orion took a look at his magical card and he noticed his accumulated points had increased once again.

'5,590 points huh,'

'This point should be enough to make me rank up to the top three,'

'I just hope Mom, Aunt Elena and Mia will be proud of what I did today,'

'Speaking of which, I really miss them right now,'

'I can't wait to be with them again,'

'I miss eating, sleeping and bathing with them,'

'I can't wait for this tournament to come to an end,'  Orion slowly closes his eyes to take a nap.

A few hours later, Orion woke up to discover a maid waiting outside his room.

He discovered that every contestants who had qualified to the next stage were currently in the same castle as him and each and everyone of them had a maid who was eager and ready to attend to all their needs.

When Orion was hungry, the maid brought over the foods he would like to eat. She also took care of him by bathing and dressing him before tucking him to bed.

The next morning the maid took care of him as well, and right now she was dressing him up in preparation for today's activity which will mostly be done in the coliseum.

The moment they were done with that, Orion stepped out of the castle to walk into a carriage parked outside, then he was taken to the Coliseum.

Even before he arrived in the Coliseum, Orion could hear the cheers of the crowds as everyone were in high spirits to witness the first intense battle of their beloved prince.

With everything they witnessed yesterday, everyone had high hopes for today's activity.

Not everyone expects the prince to actually win all his battles today, but everyone was interested in seeing how far he can reach and how many opponents he will be able to win against.

After all, the prince is still only ten years old and even though he might be a rank Three Mage like most of the other top ten mages and knights in the ranking, the fact still remains that everyone else has been training a lot longer than the prince, so will the prince be able to truly win the Junior Noble Elf Tournament?

Only time will tell.

After about a few minutes later, the carriage finally lands in a spot reserved for only the contestants to walk through.

Orion stepped out of the carriage and walked into the coliseum with his mind prepared for what he was going to do today.

"It's showtime,"
