Supreme Archer: Taking The Game's Weakest Class To The Top

Chapter 160: The Second Coming Of The Archer (3)

Perhaps only the crowd's silence was heavier than El Boss Queen's death.

Players and NPCs following Jake's battle were more than bewildered by what had just occurred.

Viktor and Ingrid were the same.

They gazed at Jake with such dilated eyes that it wouldn't be weird if blood leaked from their eyeballs.

The whispers of the crowd had voiced their questions.

"Was that even an archery?"

"His arrows were useless, so he… used a bow to skewer her? What?"

"What?"

"His close combat was on par with hers?"

"Nah, he was losing his edge when she started using kicks more. It was why he forced his way in and wrestled with her."

"Where's archery in that?"

"I mean… he used a bow, didn't he?"

Not too far away from the booming conversations, Master Aaron suddenly burst out with electrifying joy! He slammed his hand a few times onto his thighs as he laughed.

He screamed, "What a way to defeat an opponent with a high physical endurance! Haha! Yer something else, Archer! Yer usage of a bow and high altitude is beyond excellent! Good! Good!

Good!"

Master Aaron didn't want to betray his association with Jake, so he used Jake's nickname and shouted like an all-knowing onlooker.

Viktor thought as he glanced at the old man, 'Can't you be more discreet?'

The old man's words helped Jake's cause.

Jake shouted at the talkative crowd. "It's my archery! It's not as shallow as you think it is! I take archery to a higher level with creativity, fun, and challenges thrown at me by this world—all to take over everything that exists in this world through a bow and arrows! Because to me, being an archer means wielding a bow and arrows! Going out of the norm and against the mainstream is my style!

I won't use the bow only in a standard way! I will go beyond that! I won't use arrows in a standard way, either! It's chaos! You hear me! Haha!"

Alice's archery was royal and noble. It was to help each other with experiences unique to each weapon. That novel desire helped Minerva become the mage and the person she is today.

Jake, however, was the opposite and perhaps even worse.

He thrived in chaos and devoured weapons through his archery! For him, archery wasn't just releasing arrows but going beyond that and using bows and arrows in more creative ways.

As he had declared at the beginning of his journey, Jake would harness magic and everything else in this world through his bow and arrows.

All puzzles fell into this picture as he interacted with others in this fantasy world.

At last, Jake had harnessed that magic.

Crafting subclass was required as Jake stuffed his inspirations into his bow.

At first, he thought of getting inspired by Minerva's nature magic to be able to increase the size of his bow to match his styles. The longer limbs were better for the soldier stance, while the shorter ones enabled Jake's Joker Form, as he could move around freely and release arrows faster.

With that in mind, Jake met Minerva and assisted her.

The Turtle Forest and Elizabeth greatly impacted Jake's plans.

He received even more inspiration, which resulted in his creating the first masterpiece: The Second Coming Of The Archer.

Its first skill had been now revealed.

[Expand/Shrink(Epic)(Active Skill)(Bonded to Archer)—a skill to control the bow's size and weight. The bow's stats vary depending on the size. The shorter it is, the faster the arrows. The bigger it is, the stronger the arrows. The skill can be used remotely because of Archer's connection with the bow during its creation.]

It was a skill possible because Minerva's mana flowed within the bow. She was so close to nature that Jake's inspiration could have been breathed into the bow and turned into a skill.

'Mrs. Minerva is also built differently.' Jake thought with a smile.

In conclusion, the bow's colossal size was because Jake had been preparing to start any battle with The Soldier Form. He'd never give up on his Joker Form, as it was the most loyal to his heart.

He was a different kind of a breed, too.

"That sounds cool!"

"Someone! Challenge him!"

"Make him show more of his skills!"

As the crowd wanted to test Jake's skills and archery vision to their limits, their eyes turned to the other players participating in the mini-event.

The instructors were doing their best not to look in Viktor's direction.

They failed once when Jake's bow had scratched the skies.

Viktor understood it was his time again.

He walked to Randal and the two instructors.

He ignored them and spoke to the players under their belts.

He said, "Each winner of the mage, swordsman, and spearman tests will be able to fight Archer. I offer one hundred gold coins to each winner."

Because everyone here was a low-level player, one hundred gold coins was an eye-popping reward for a win. The best of the best also didn't think they were worse than El Boss Queen. No, they were confident that their skills surpassed her.

She was a gangster who bullied others while they had been practicing a lot to become high-level players with high stats and proficiencies.

They'd win against Archer!

The wave of thrill swept through Viktor as all players agreed to his quest!

Randal's face was the ugliest as Viktor had once again stolen his spotlight. Only because he was royal and rich…

The two instructors didn't have any complexes. They decided to give their all and support the mini-event winner with their knowledge and items.

The pride of each weapon and household was on the line all of a sudden!

Jake had been staring at them from afar.

Three more battles were ahead of him.

Three important ones… for the future of the bow and arrows!

'I have much more up in my sleeve... I'll win,' Jake thought as he clenched his hands.
