Lucius focused on the first two sticks, adopting the same posture as her. He managed to hit the first stick but missed the target on the second, just like Natalia had done.
"Next time, it will be two for sure," Lucius nodded to himself, feeling more confident about his technique. Meanwhile, Natalia focused and threw her stone again.
This time, she successfully knocked down the first two sticks but narrowly missed the third one by an inch.
"Tshh," she made an annoyed sound and crossed her arms over her chest in frustration.
It was Lucius's second turn, and he narrowed his eyes in concentration. He sent the stone spinning, and it hit both of the first two sticks before reaching the third one. It then landed next to it, producing a 'thud.'
