Isekai Journey Of The Magic Archer

Chapter 181 The Adorable One.

He was something I had never seen before... or his stats and those absurd numbers of skills.

That was something I couldn't even fathom... not for now, at the very least.

I was strong but, what this grandpa had was something totally different from just strength.

Just from the fact that after looking at those things and gaining the knowledge of those things, my eyes started to bleed, I knew just how weak I was.

My mind went wild with pain.

My entire body went stiff and all the strength I had left me.

This feeling of utter powerlessness...

Now I wanted to fight him and grandpa even more.

It was absurd, but it was what it was.

Rein, Carla, Alf, all of them had fought against these strong old persons while I had only fought an overwhelming, absurdly powerful, divine being, my grandma...

Well, I had something absurdly strong as my opponent and I had fought with my life on the line against her.

I loved fights where there was no worry of death and I can just be myself and just let go of myself in a safe fight where a win would be the goal.

In short, I loved PVPs.

Not that I was a battle junkie or anything like that. I just loved some particular types of fights.

I would pray to never face him or something like him in an actual fight to the death. That would be something really foolish on my side.

There were many ways to kill stronger opponents that I knew from my experience. However, a fight without knowing everything about an opponent like him?

No, thanks.

I'm happy living my life however I wanted and I would love to have this special freedom of mine.

But if I get the chance to fight, to spar with these strong opponents... I would just love that one.

"Hold your horses, young boy. Here, have a potion. You lost too much in that attempt.

I don't know how much you saw but, just being able to see my status window was a feat even Elle hasn't achieved."

? His voice was radiant, and it was enough to take me out of this train of thoughts.

Channeling Solnova throughout my body and moving it fine, I surprised the old man.

"Thank you very much, Rein's grandpa. But, I will be ok~."

I smiled at him and took out my red 'potion' and drank it without hesitation.

The healing energy stabilized everything in my body and my stamina, Mana, and concentration I lost moments ago started returning.

This speed of healing was unreal, and this surprised him even more, and his eyes widened in surprise.

Rein was watching everything from behind him, but she was shocked the moment blood flowed out of my eyes.

As if her heartbeat has stopped, she was acting weirdly for some reason.

It was too weird, there were even unwanted tears on the ends of her eyes as she looked at me blankly.

Her mouth was just wide open until the moment I said I was ok and she came back to her senses after that.

We all had seen that one and even if she tried to hide that, the one tear that knowingly slid down her cheek was telling something else.

I had this feeling while looking at her that... I would have the same reaction, feelings, and chaos if something were to actually happen to her.

These weird feelings, emotions, and things we both were feeling... was it really it?

Was she... the one?

I didn't know... yet. But I knew we will know as time goes by and maybe we would spend more time together like 'friends'.

That was her, but the red potion surprised the duke and one of the [King] ranked knights greatly.

"Is that… holy water? No, not even holy water has an effect like that one. And there's no holy energy in that... what is that thing, Eon?"

His silver eyes were totally shocked, wide open like they had seen a miracle.

"Oh... it's just an [Elixir] my master had made. Do you find it that amazing?" I asked with genuine curiosity.

Though I knew the market somewhat from what I had seen it, there was nothing like [Elixir] in any place I went.

Even at that jewelry shop, the best they had were advanced potions.

Were these [Elixirs], in particular, the one I had really that big of a deal?

I knew he would have the answer to that one but, after hearing about my master... he fell silent and felt sorry for some reason.

Just like grandpa.

Just how nice were these people to feel sorry for the loss of one they had never even met before?

"Well, it's good you are ok. Elle, don't worry. He's fine and more than good." He said with a weird smirk as he looked at her and she just blushed, unknowingly avoiding his gaze.

Even she didn't know what to say or how to react to that one... truly adorable.

"Ahem! I am fine now. So, shouldn't we all go inside and take a look at Rein's grandma? I think she will be cured instantly so, let's not waste any more time."

My voice was stern and they both also understood it.

"After seeing that one... I think you might just be able to do it." He said with a hopeful smile and turned around.

Stopping just before her, he mouthed something that I missed seeing with the different angle of my third eye, but whatever he said at that moment... made her go 'poof!'.

That face just now... that redness that covered her face was something unbelievable.

Something so unbelievable I wanted to say many things that would sound inappropriate.

"Grandpa!!!" she shouted with that same embarrassed face and started hitting her grandpa like a little girl.

'This girl is 123? Like hell she is...' She was more childish in some cases than even Zoe.

As adorable as my lovely Anna, and that was the highest level possible for any beauty, any charm that one could possibly receive.

And I wouldn't be surprised if I check Anna's stats and her charm was 100+.

Nope, that would be 'just right' at the best.

She was more adorable than anything, and she was THE best.

That was an undeniable, unchanging, eternally true fact that will always be true.

Shaking these sudden desires to worship my little sister, I walked behind her grandpa inside the giant hall and two stairs on each side of this hall that lead to the same balcony on the second floor.

She was frozen on the ground and though I didn't know what he said, I knew whatever it was... it was about me.

Well, I will know sooner or later... or I might just ask Lucy tomorrow, or the day after that.

Well, questions were like a lifeline, and asking something meaningless would naturally be a waste of time, ability, and resources.

I could just directly ask her, maybe.

Well, an ill grandma came first.

"Big sister~! Let's go in~! Hehehe." Thankfully, Zoe was with her and I knew she would be successful in dragging the frozen adorable Rein with her.

She was strong, if anything.

"W-wait Zoe. What are you..." And as I knew, she was dragged by brute force alone.

Good girls.

We walked inside, climbed three floors that were not that much for any of us, and then, stopped before a special-looking room on the fourth floor.

"I hope that thing with you works, Eon. I believe in you." He said with a hope-filled smile and I nodded at him with a confident look.

Looking at Rein, I smiled and told her not to worry with my eyes and she nodded back with a hesitant smile.

Her grandpa opened the door, and a luxurious room with a giant bed entered our eyes.

On this bed lay a frail, corpse-like figure of an old woman that barely looked like a living being.

Her body was in a hibernation state, her heart beating so slowly, aside from the necessary function of the body, nothing worked in her body.

The Mana channels carried a precise amount of Mana that was required to just barely keep the body alive.

That body with bones visible on her almost nonextinct skin.

Her sunk cheeks and dark eyes.

And lastly, that cold body... it was terrible.

But... we still had some time.

It wasn't too late yet and this was the perfect time for her.

If we had delayed for some days, she might have gone into a suspended state, and aside from her soul staying inside the body, she would have practically died.

And they would have had to use the reincarnation spell... if they can that is.

It was impossible to use that thing even if you were the duke.

But...

"She will be ok," I said in a confident voice and took out the precious medicine bottle from my white crack.
