"Tung… Tung… Tung…"
Inside the combat room of the Sen family, a loud tearing noise reverberated all around the room as Kent smashed the target boards one after another.
"VACCUS DISSOLVO IMPETUM"
This ti, Kent is not even shouting the spell loudly. Like a person na, the spell played on his lips and the arrows left one after another form his bow, smashing the target boards.
Ruby, who stood outside, heard tremor noises from ti to ti. She wondered what Kent was doing inside.
Usually, people visit the Sen family for two purposes. One is pleasure, and the other is black magic to curse enemies. Kent is the only outsider who has co to use the combat rooms in the last decade. That's why Ruby felt surprised to see a guy who ca for a serious practice.
Inside the combat room, more than one hour passed, and Kent took a small break as his arm was feeling a little discomfort.
"My average proficiency improved to 75. With full focus, I can achieve 84. But the Void breaker Arrow is a defensive spell and I won't win a tournant just with a defensive spell. It's better to start practicing an attack spell." Kent muttered, assessing his strength and thinking of possible ways to win the tournant.
He took out the Arcane To from the bracelet and began reading the details about the Arcane Bolt Arrow, which is an offensive, attack-type arrow spell.
ARCANE BOLT ARROW
Mantra: "Arden Ignis Telum" (BURNING FIRE BOLT)
The Arcane Bolt Arrow is a potent offensive spell, manifesting as a blazing projectile of arcane energy. When invoked with the mantra "Arden Ignis Telum," this arrow ignites with intense flas, ready to unleash devastating destruction upon its target upon contact.
Crafted through ticulous spell work and imbued with concentrated magical power, it requires precise timing and expert aiming to unleash its full potential.
A long description followed, indicating several precautions and effects of the Arcane Fire Bolt spell. Kent spent a lot of ti taking note of every minute detail about the fire bolt arrow.
After that, he closed down the Arcane to, sat in ditative posture, and practiced Agni mudra (also known as Sun mudra, fire-related: holding thumb and ring finger together, helps in energy flow). The mantra played on his lips as he visualised the Arcane bolt arrow.
Ti passed slowly, and Ruby, who stood outside, began feeling impatient. She is trained with extre pleasure scriptures and has been reserved until now for trapping a big player. But standing outside a combat room made her irritated, and she is losing her patience slowly.
Kent finally stood up after one hour and picked up his Victor bow. As the aura entered inside, the snow-white bow glowed in golden color, and Kent too took the warrior stance and got ready to unleash the Arcane bolt arrow.
He closed his eyes and drew the bow string; an aura arrow ford at the cross section. Kent opened his eyes and chose his target.
"ARDEN IGNIS TELUM"
Just as Kent shouted, a blazing fire lit up at the arrow point and began engulfing the entire arrow like a streak of gasoline. This spell worked faster than the void-breaker arrow, and Kent didn't has ti to judge his arrow timing.
With the fear of arrow exploding in his hands, Kent released the arrow instantly. A streak of red lines stayed along the arrow path for a second.
'Peng…'
The arrow struck the edge of the target board. In a hurry, Kent missed, aiming the target board properly. But a loud blast followed on the place where an arrow struck the target board, and a number '1' displayed, indicating proficiency.
"Thank God… It didn't explode in my hands. Otherwise, I might be lying in a healer house for one week." Kent muttered while staring at the burning fire, which is still glowing at the target board.
The fire blazed for an entire minute before dissipating in the thin air. Kent adjusted his stance and focused on his actions.
"ARDEN IGNIS TELUM"
This ti he successfully released the arrow with good timing, and with a streak of fire, the arrow blasted the target board. Unlike last ti, the blasted fire particles spread all around the floor, igniting the room with burning green flas.
Number '7' was displayed on the target board, and thankfully, the fire didn't spread in the room and dissipated after one minute.
"It seems like the fire is not an obstacle to my practice. But my proficiency is very low with the Arcane Bolt Arrow compared to the Void Breaker Arrow. Let's practice it to perfection; I can worry about proficiency later." Kent muttered while gripping the Victor bow tightly.
Holding his breath, Kent began releasing Arcane bolt arrows one after another in different directions. To avoid calamities, he didn't fire two arrows in the sa direction at a ti.
"Boom… Boom… Booommm…"
Explosive noise reverberated in each second. The Fire Kirin sat in one corner, staring at burning flas. Oddly, the Kirin eyed the flas lovingly, its saliva drooling, staring at the burning fires all around the room.
"3… 6… 7… 5… 8… 9… 11… 4… 13… 8…"
Most of his arrows resulted in single-digit numbers, and rarely he had a few double-digits. The highest number he touched was 13.
But Kent did not lose his spirit; the explosive fires indicated that his arcane fire bolt arrow was enough to put his enemies in bed for months.
While Kent got busy in his practice, Black Belle Miss ca again to see the situation in the combat rooms. She felt surprised when she saw Ruby standing outside like a gatekeeper.
With an angry glare, she rushed towards Ruby. "What are you doing outside? Do you forget what we trained you for?" Black Belle asked with a serious look.
"Elder, what can I do? That fool ignored and locked the combat room for practice. He didn't even spare a glance." Ruby replied casually.
"You are the damn fool. That guy is a big fish, and his pet is worth a fortune. I specifically arranged this task for you to raise your position. But you seem not to be serious about your task. What a waste of ti." Black Belle Miss spoke impatiently as anger flared up on her face.
Ruby imdiately knelt on one knee, understanding her low IQ mistake. "Please forgive , elder. I thought the young man was a pauper and didn't use any of my skills. Please give another chance... I will prove my worth to you." Ruby said it in a determined tone.
Black Belle Miss stared at Ruby for a few second before replying. "Rise up. This is the last chance for you." Ruby said with a fierce look while taking out trays of food bowls that were freshly cooked.
"The silver bowls are for his pet, and the golden bowls are for the young man. I added 'Dream elixir' in the silver bows for pet and 'Elixir of Youth' in the golden bows. Make him eat the food at any cost. Use every skill to seduce that fellow." Black Belle instructed with a an look.
"But elder, isn't the elixir of youth too much for a young man? He might beco fierce and uncontrollable." Ruby asked with a serious look, knowing how the elixir of youth turns humans into beasts.
"That's not our problem. He is your first man. So, use him as a test subject to check your potential." Black Belle Miss replied with an evil smile and took her leave from the combat rooms.
Ruby stood with a silver tray in her left hand and a golden tray in her right hand. The fresh food is mixed with elixirs, releasing an aromatic, intoxicating sll.
