Chapter 348 - A little Game

Looking at the bow and seeing Badger and Sloth perform perfectly in sync. Ray wanted to attempt the trial. After all, the last time he held a bow he was put in a similar situation but he never got the chance to show if he could use it or not. The bowstring had snapped and they didn't allow him to continue the test. After that day Ray never tried using a bow again.

"Hey who's this guy that Martha's being so nice to?" A student whispered.

"Maybe it's her boyfriend." another one said.

"Don't be stupid, everyone knows that she was going out with Monk before, well, before he went over to the shadow."

Martha hearing had improved ever since she became half-beast, hearing the students say these words she automatically looked in their direction and gave a glare.

"We're sorry teacher." They said as they bowed down.

The sound of the door opening from behind them was heard and entering the room was Wendy. When she looked around she was surprised to see another a.d.u.l.t in the room, one she didn't recognize.

Following from behind, Badger and Sloth had also entered the room, their eyes were suddenly glued to a certain person in the room.

"Hey who's he?" Wendy asked, but as soon as she finished her words. She felt the wind pass by her face and her hair flutter in the air.

Badger and Sloth, ran straight past her and went straight to the ground. "We welcome the boss back!" They both said at the same time.

The word Boss rung in Ray's head and he wondered why on earth did Jack decided to get everyone to call him that in the first place. Not only was it embarrassing, but he could tell it would cause confusion in the room.

Although Badger and Sloth weren't master knights like the others, they were well known in the Redwing army for being scouts. The two of them would often scout an area up ahead before anyone else, seeing if there were any troubles and more times than not, they seemed to bring that trouble back with them.

"Heads up you two," Martha said. "So Ray, about the test, want to give it a go?"

Ray didn't answer Martha but instead walked up to Wendy and gave her a good look using his dragon eyes skill. Her aura and body were strong and she too would make another perfect candidate for the beasting process, the problem was would she go through with it? Flynn had lost the bet, but Ray was going to make sure to tell him everything that happened and leave the choice up to him.

He didn't want to force anyone through such a painful process but judging by Flynn's attitude he would keep his promise, to do whatever Ray had asked. The question was, how could he get Wendy to agree?

"Do you mind if I borrow your bow?" Ray asked.

Wendy saw no problem with it and handed it over. It was only the training bow they would use for the events anyway, so it wasn't like it belonged to her or anything. Ray then pulled back on the string of the bow as hard as he could, but before Ray could even feel the maximum tension point, the bow snapped.

"I guess I won't be able to take part in the event after all." Said Ray.

It was the same result as last time. Although Ray now had better control of his powers he wanted to put himself in a realistic situation. He didn't have time during a fight to measure the correct amount of force to use and would often quickly pull as hard as he could. In this case, it would snap and become useless to him.

"What a crappy bow, how did it break so easily?" Flynn said disappointed he wasn't going to see another performance from Ray.

What he didn't notice though, was now all the students were looking at Ray in a different light. The bow used in the training centre was upgraded from a basic tier weapon to an intermediate tier weapon. Ray didn't know this but he had just broken the string of an intermediate tier weapon like it was nothing. Something none of the archers in that room thought was possible.

"Why did you join this academy?" Ray asked Wendy.

If Ray had asked this question before showing her his strength, she would have thought he was a no-body. What right did he have to know what she thought, but seeing how powerful he was she felt more inclined to answer him.

"I wish to get rid of the shadow" She replied. "My family, both of them were killed by the shadow, with no food and no water, we had no where to go. Luckily the town nearby was happy to take us in. They treated us the best they could giving us food and a place to sleep. But then a stray shadow beast had entered the town, the guards that were meant to protect us were the first ones to run away. The people who took me in were killed, and soon I thought me and my brother would be next."

Hearing this Van was getting more annoyed. While he and his family were safe and sound in the capital, all the people who lived by the border had to live in fear every day, at the chance they could be attacked.

"However, at the last second, the Redwing army had arrived and defeated the shadow beasts," Wendy explained. "And know I am one of those very same people that saved our lives. I wish to continue to save others, and fight for a place where my brother can grow up playing games and going to school, not worrying about the dangers around him."

Wendy's words had resonated with a lot of people there. The ones that were left at Avrion all had similar reasons. Those that had no reason to stay, had gone back to their family as soon as they declared independence.

"Do you wish to get stronger then?" Ray said. "What if I told you I could give you the power to take on those shadow beats?"

"But how?" She asked.

"Let's play a little game," Ray said with a smile.
