Leave Me Alone, Heroines!

149 Chapter 149

When he left the strange room, Acht took a look around to see if people were aware of what happened inside. The destruction from the previous fight should've probably reached a good chunk of the city purely from the loud sounds.

However, this didn't seem to be the case as the casino was still filled with people that were playing and gambling. They didn't seem to have heard any kind of disturbance.

'It seems that this storage room is a noise canceling one.' He thought as he crossed the casino and left the place.

He had no other place to go other than going back to the 'Melody Of Dreams' Bar. So, with an exhausted body, he dragged himself there.

It took him around 15 minutes of walking to reach it.

Inside, he found the place empty except for two people, the bartender and Jack who was reading a book while sipping on a coffee.

"Hm?" He turned around when he heard the bell attached to the door ring.

"Oh, Acht. You finally cam-"

He suddenly stopped talking when he saw the tagged state of Acht. He did indeed heal himself but his dirtied clothes and the cuts on his shirt and trousers can't be changed.

"Huh, Lein had already done it? Damn, I told her to not go far." He muttered with a thoughtful look.

Acht barely gave him a glance as he started to walk to the other door to enter the residence area of this building.

Jack merely chuckled at his cold attitude and returned to reading his book.

After he left the bar area, Jack looked at the bartender.

"Do you think he would be useful, Erix?"

His question was simple and even his tone was calm and amicable. However, the bartender named Erix knew what the hidden meaning of this seemingly harmless question was.

"I hope so, Mister Jack." He replied politely as he continued cleaning the wine cup in his hand with a towel.

****************************

The next day, Acht woke up from the deep slumber he was in. Last night was very hectic and he could barely even stand from all the sore muscles in his body.

But, this world had all kinds of magical potions and healing artifacts that basically could restore anyone to his peak state almost instantly. It was very convenient for Acht who didn't like to waste time recovering when he could be training.

After that, he walked out of the room and went straight to a big section of the mansion that he saw yesterday which was the training area.

Technology-wise, this place was by far the best one he had ever seen. It was even better than the training capsules in Lagradon.

The place was quiet and there was no one outside. He checked the big screen at the entrance and found that two of the 10 capsules available were occupied by someone.

They were probably the members of Nightingale but he didn't know who.

He ignored that quickly and chose a random free capsule before he entered inside.

"I should try the new bow I got. Since it's an S-Rank one, it should have a special ability." He muttered as he pulled the bow out of his spatial ring.

Then, he used the control panel to summon some objects to hit. They were all inanimate things since he still needed to grow accustomed to the bow.

Now that he took a good look at it, he found an interesting thing about this weapon.

"It has no arrows?" He muttered.

He had seen this world's bows before and they all needed arrows to function even if they were soul artifacts. However, this one doesn't have them.

'Wait, could it be…?' An idea popped into his head and he decided to try it.

He grabbed the bow tightly and extended the string before aiming in a random direction.

He then channeled his soul force inside the bow. As he predicted, a blue arrow made out of pure soul force manifested in the middle. It didn't resemble an arrow but it had the same rough shape as an arrow.

It was pointy and slightly long.

After taking a small breath, he looked at his target sharply and then released the arrow.

Immediately, it flew fast, creating a blue hue behind it before it hit its target successfully.

*BOOOOM*

Instead of a normal impact, the moment the arrow touched the target, it detonated like a bomb and destroyed it to smithereens. Bits and pieces of the target flew everywhere, leaving nothing behind that could be considered intact. The explosion was big and very lethal.

Acht was impressed by this revelation and looked at the bow again.

"This is amazing." He thought.

Then, he continued shooting targets around him, trying to increase the speed at which he can create an arrow and shoot it. With each attempt, it took him less and less time to do it which made him feel motivated even more. So, he didn't care about the passage of time and kept working as hard as he could.

After two hours of continuous training, he stopped and sat down to rest.

He looked at the bottle of water that he had slightly far away. Out of laziness, he pulled out Ooze and made it bring the bottle to him. He could've done so himself but why wouldn't he rely on his abilities to make his life easier? It was also fun to use Ooze from time to time for such miscellaneous tasks like this.

However, as he watched the black liquid move smartly, another idea popped into his head. His face immediately lightened as all exhaustion disappeared and a resolve appeared in his eyes.

It was by far the best idea he ever came up with. But, he could tell that it was extremely hard to pull off even with his skills.

"If this could work. My prowess will jump by leaps and bounds." He muttered.
