Chapter 68 - What's next?

As it was another blow from Sora to their glory, many wanted to back out too! Still few of them thought she can't be perfect in everything! So they still decided to go for it. Everybody wants to try their hand at the given opportunity by Sora herself.

"What's next?", Aryan cleared his throat and spoke again, "I mean, I wanted to ask who wants to challenge Princess next and which game?"

"How about Archery?", Aiden who was Cayden's cousin raised his hand in the crowd. Sora looked at him and gave a smile. 'Finally! someone descent.', Sora thought. Aiden also bowed to her.

Compared to others, he is the only one who is not the arrogant guy in this crowd. He was also Sora's senior classmate in Archery lessons, where he was one of the best who was jolly in nature and always kind to the others. In fact, he helped Sora to teach loopholes and tricks in the Archery as he was her teacher's son. Mr. Kade's younger brother was her teacher in Archery who was just like Mr. Kade, a good person and kind-hearted.

"Accepted!", Sora politely said to Aiden. It was rarest to see her like this. She is always humble to the nice people and arrogant to the unnecessary proud people!

When Aiden came to the battlefield where Sora was already present in the center he again bowed a little to show her courtesy. Sora nodded to him.

"Why?", Sora whispered only to be heard by Aiden.

She knew how he is. He is not like those other people, greedy for power nor he is interested to show others how best he is. She wants to know why he is competing! He always remained polite toward her and was one of her good friends. Little did Sora know, that he has a crush on her when he saw how cute she is in real life and how best in Archery!

"So that, it will stop these idiots and nobody will dare to challenge you to waste your time Princess.", he always considered her highest position among them so he just called her Princess.

"Hmm", Sora whispered back.

The rule was simple one has to score the maximum by shooting an arrow to the center ring or bullseye whereas other rings have less score in outer descending order and the center ring has a maximum of ten.

There were five targets in front of them and each distance was almost more than a hundred meters. Once the target was set Aiden came with his bow and arrow set which was printed with his name and blue color fletching so that people to understand which one is his.

One by one he stood in front of all the ring targets and shoot his arrow in the center which is a bullseye easily concentrating on his target. Everybody cheered for him thinking at least this guy will give her a tough fight! Cayden who was upset with his loss was happy to see how his cousin is standing by his side. Little did he know Aiden just testing his luck!

Now it was Sora's turn! She also came with her bow and arrow set printed with her name and red color fletching. Only the difference was her arrow's bullet point means the arrowhead was too sharp. It was the unique structure of the arrow which was specially designed by her. They were made flexible enough to change the direction when she wants by using the wind flow.

In the middle of the five targets, Sora also stood in front of all the targets designed and shoot her arrow. In the center of the already darted arrow at the bullseye, each arrow is easily cut through every arrow released by Aiden. Each arrow was kept at their place just to compare, but Sora's arrow hits them as if one gets inserted into another body and the outer body got scattered into pieces.

That was shocking for everyone as Sora even does not see the targets, she simply released all arrows one by one in seconds just to complete the task!

"It was a nice shot!", Aiden praised the girl feeling proud of her.
