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

Chapter 177: Girlfriend, pride, and friends (1)

It was afternoon.

Jake landed on his back, fighting for breath.

He was wet from head to toe, as he perspired a lot. His hair stuck to him so closely that it may have been glued!

He had been learning The Feather Step's concept by combining the comforts of his movement skill with Viktor's explanations.

It'd take some time for him to learn it raw.

Of course, Jake loved to exercise.

His sweat in the other world also smelled different because of his new constitution.

Though he didn't mind the smell of his sweat, he'd still take baths in the game as it was wet here and there, and he remained uncomfortable despite the new fragrance.

Jake wasn't alone in Viktor's workplace.

His companions were released from their dwellings within him. In an unusual combo, Wukong, Odin, and Ender played together as they ran around the forest.

Ender perched on Odin's head and treated him like a mount.

Odin was in such a good mood that he didn't think of himself as someone lower or less significant. He enjoyed the presence of his friends.

Wukong was the same.

And while the same could be said about Ender, his pride and questions about his existence left him above others. He couldn't lower himself or be at the same level yet.

In a way, it was adorable because he was still only a baby.

'Medusa's still snuggled up in my clothes. She's the only lady in our group and doesn't share much interest with others. She might get alienated soon…' Jake thought as he rested on the ground. For the sake of Medusa's comfort, he wouldn't mind picking up the fifth companion as long as it was a female.

He wanted Medusa to have a company, too.

'I'm spent, though… I must rest and wait for the stamina potion to fill me up. I don't know where I'd find the fifth trace anyway… and it's not like the fifth one will be one hundred percent a female,' Jake thought.

Though he may have been unable to lift a finger because of his exhaustion, Jake still could operate the system fairly well with his throbbing finger lying close to his chest. It was uncomfortable, but he wanted to open his friend list.

Ethan had become one of his friends first.

It was because Viktor and Master Aaron decided to leave Jake alone and focus on their stuff.

Viktor had left the essential particulars and teachings. He'd check Jake's progress later.

Therefore, Jake added Ethan to his friend list and talked with him about the group of archers. He didn't tell him that he knew about their blueprints.

Ethan, however, immediately began the conversation by mentioning them. He was thankful to Jake and spoke mountains of praise and apologies.

He spoke in everyone's stead and mainly apologized in Patti's place. She was the one who told Jake to leave the training grounds after his bow broke.

Jake remembered it so well that he could even recall her blushing face. It was a kind of blush that Jake would rather avoid, so it wasn't pleasant in the slightest to remember it.

Because of Mary's advice, Jake didn't tell Ethan about his stat bonuses. He also didn't want anyone to know about his legendary class, as even assassins from other guilds were after him.

Jake, however, could freely speak about his connection with Asta Bow and Viktor. He told Ethan that Viktor would send an instructor to the training grounds to help them improve.

He even told him that Viktor planned to give quests to the best archers in Asta Bow's lands.

Jake even had a bright idea.

He told Ethan that he had practiced in those lands before coming to fight others!

That worked like a magic spell on Ethan.

'I didn't mention The Turtle Forest, so it's up to Mrs. Alice if she wants them here. I can see Elizabeth coming in to test everyone's strength with her wilderness and companions, too… haha! If she's still around, she might really do that! This damn troublemaker. I hope she's not as wild as I think she is!' Jake thought.

Elizabeth had such a charm that Jake ended up thinking about her as though he were her older brother.

He liked her a lot, too.

'Who should I talk with first?' Jake stared at the pending friend invites.

It'd be fair to add Last Coin first, as he had won against him. Jake was interested in how Last Coin viewed him… from what Viktor told him, Last Coin stood up for him, so Jake believed it was really a favorable image.

That said, Last Coin won… and Jake cried.

Jake stared with pursed lips. 'Later.'

His eyes went unnaturally went down.

[I Come In Peace.]

'I don't want to talk with him yet…' Jake thought. 'This bastard has such an adorable busty girlfriend! Good stuff that I won against him!'

A moment later, Jake narrowed his eyes.

He couldn't believe he had just thought about this man in this way.

'Why am I so jealous… damn, this is getting out of hand… no wonder Lukas lost to himself. I'm on the same page now! If this continues, I will even lose my V-card faster than he will!'

If Jake could catch his head and despair, he would have done that.

He feared that what Mary told him about—her thought of him losing himself entirely for a woman because of his unusual personality trait—might really happen if he didn't set his priorities straight.

'It's joever… I am a simple man!' Jake thought after thinking about his priorities. 'It can't be that big chest is enough to put a leash on me! Get a hang of yourself, Jake! Okay… I allow myself to fall in love with a girl more obsessed than me about her goals! She must be a player and someone around my level, so we can level our proficiencies together!

We will push each other continuously to the next stage! She must have a bigger chest than this bastard's girlfriend… yeah. Personality? Not a bully, but can be wild since even lions can be tamed! I got this.'

Jake rested enough that he could nod to himself with content.

He sighed. 'How could others say that I'm odd? Focusing only on one thing is so much more comfortable… I'm beginning to think I was the only one sane after all! This damn adult life…'

[You have added SWalker to your friends.]

[Archer: Hi, man! How ya doing?]

Jake started a conversation to kick away unnecessary troubles.
