"What is he doing?"
"I heard that Master has found a master archer. He's now playing over there."
"Archer? Don't we already have Jax? Does Master want to recruit another archery coach?"
"Maybe."
The servants passed by the archery range could not help but gossip when they saw the scene there.
At this moment, in the archery range, besides their old master, Graves, there was also a group of people. They were either wearing heavy plate armor or exposing their upper body muscles. They looked like they had just finished training.
They were all hangers-on recruited by the old master. They did not need to work on weekdays. They only needed to occasionally accompany the old master to practice martial arts.
All these hangers-on had their own abilities. The old master's training was carried out one by one. It was indeed rare to see a scene like today where all the people gathered together.
And in the middle of this group of people, there was a total stranger.
It was said that this man seemed to be Miss Camilla's personal guest. However, this rumor was not that reliable. After all, everyone believed that this family cared so much about their reputation, and unmarried women usually would not do such controversial things.
Moreover, even if Miss Camilla had reached the right age and was eager to socialize with outstanding men, it should not be such a man in a cheap suit.
...
Alvin stood in the archery range. When he saw that the servants passing by glance at him and whisper to each other, he swore in his heart that he would change into a suit that fit him after he went back. If not, he would not wear such a thing anymore in the future.
However, this was not the main concern. At this moment, the important issue was how to pass this hurdle.
Alvin knew that his only advantage was his strength. If he were to shoot arrows, they would probably miss the target and fly away without a trace.
At this moment, the people gathered around were not a bunch of good-for-nothings. They either had strong muscles, or their arms were much longer than normal people. They wore all kinds of armor and looked fierce.
If in front of these people, if they realized that he was not the so-called master archer who could move freely and shoot wherever he wanted...
He did not know if he would be surrounded and beaten to death by these people.
"Hello, my name is Tasarro, the German two-handed sword champion. Nice to meet you, Master Archer..."
"I heard that you are very good at archery. Do you know how to ride a horse? I can teach you how to ride a horse, and you can teach me archery. Oh yes, my name is..."
"Master Archer... My name is... Nice to meet you..."
...
Those people greeted Alvin one by one. Everyone respectfully called him Master. This made Alvin's heart, which was already hanging in the air, beat faster.
The atmosphere also became even more enthusiastic. They cheered enthusiastically, but Alvin was feeling more and more diffident.
At this moment, Graves had already taken off his Milan plate armor and changed into a normal bathrobe.
As soon as he saw Alvin, he smiled and said, "Haha, Alvin, the atmosphere here is not bad, right?"
"Not bad..."
"It's good that you're happy. I'll let my people perform first."
As Graves spoke, he shouted a name in a direction.
"Jax! My best warrior, draw the bow!"
Amidst the cheers, a strong figure walked out from the crowd heading towards Alvin.
Jax was wearing a chain mail armor as if he was wearing a raincoat.
He lifted his hood and revealed his bald head. His beard was pushed up by the smile and he reached out to shake hands with Alvin.
"Hehe, I heard that you are a master archer. You have to give me some leeway, Haha."
Alvin felt the thickness of this person's palm, as well as that rough callus. He must have been a veteran who had been training all year round.
Alvin replied, "No, no, you should be the one giving me leeway."
"Oh, you are too humble."
Jax said with a face full of gratification.
Obviously, no matter how Alvin explained, he would not be able to get rid of the title of master. Even if he told the other party frankly, the other party would think that he was just being humble.
Alvin's heart suddenly sank. He had already started to plan. What should he do when the time came and he was exposed?
Just say that he was sick and not in a good state?
The level of this kind of lie was the same as lying in school, saying that he forgot his homework at home. It was not convincing at all.
Just say that he was actually short-sighted? And he forgot to bring his glasses today?
It did not seem to work either.
As Alvin remembered that some archers or air gunners in the Olympic Games were also short-sighted, but they did not necessarily wear glasses when they were competing.
It was because the targets in the distance could not be seen clearly even if they wore glasses. Experts shot based on their senses, not their eyesight.
"Then I'll go shoot first. I hope Master can give me some pointers."
As Jax spoke, his strong body had already moved towards the waiting area.
"Sigh."
Looking at this back, Alvin sighed silently. He had a feeling that he was about to make the biggest fool of himself in his life.
Since this Jax was personally pointed out by Graves, then he definitely represented the highest standard of shooting in this place.
After Jax finished shooting, it was Alvin's turn.
Thinking of this place, even the hairdresser was a celebrity's assistant...
Alvin estimated that the difference between him and Jax in archery was probably between an ordinary person who couldn't even shave clean and a hairstylist.
...
At this moment, Alvin suddenly felt someone poke his back.
He turned around and saw Camilla.
Camilla had already changed into a lighter full-body dress. He didn't know when she had arrived.
Camilla didn't say anything. She just winked at Alvin.
"Ah?"
Alvin wanted to ask something, but Camilla ignored him. Instead, she turned around and stood in the distance.
Perhaps Camilla's figure was too obvious among the crowd. It was too easy to be noticed, so she didn't dare to have too much contact with Alvin.
Alvin thought to himself, what did this wink mean?
No woman, especially a beautiful woman, would wink at him for no reason. Alvin knew this very well.
So, there must be some meaning to it.
Alvin thought so.
At this time, Alvin saw that the waiting area Jax was heading to was where the 300-pound bow was.
Alvin remembered that the 300-pound bow was the one that he had accidentally dry fired.
When it was dry fired, the force used to push the arrow was all absorbed by the bow.
The moment the bow was drawn, most likely it would explode directly.
