Dark Soul Moon

Chapter 40 Athena's Call

Days had passed since Ash had shot the griffin that day.

When the people in the city of Athens saw Ashes dragging the corpse of the griffin back, awe appeared in their eyes.

During this time, everyone in the city of Athens knew that Irina, the priestess of the Temple of Athena, had brought back a mighty warrior.

Because there was once a goddess warrior who was jealous of Irina's favor for Ashes and went to trouble Ashes in the name of a challenge.

Then he was thrown from his house by ashes in a short time.

Afterwards, the Goddess Warrior was punished by the Goddess Athena and deprived of her status as a Goddess Warrior, on the grounds that the loser of the challenge would shame the name of the Goddess Warrior.

And there is still a gossip circulating in the city of Athens, that is, the reason why the chief goddess warrior has not shown up until now is because she was killed by Ashes.

Of course, most people took it as groundless fake news.

At this time, Ashes was in the training ground, training Atalanta.

Ever since he shot down the griffin in the sky with the big dragon-hunting bow that day, Atalanta clamored for him to teach her archery, especially the archery technique of shooting the griffin directly with a single "swoosh".

Looking at Atalanta's tiny arms and legs, Ashes could only tell her: "Your strength is not enough to draw that bow and use the dragon-hunting archery technique."

Atalanta showed an unconvinced expression on the spot, because of the favor of the goddess Artemis, her physical fitness was much stronger than her peers.

Then Atalanta yelled: "I don't believe it, Papa! Let me try!"

"..." Faced with the unconvinced Atalanta, Ashes was also a little helpless.

After that, he took out the big dragon hunting bow and asked Atalanta to try to pull it away.

Because of her height, Atalanta could only step on the bow, and then tried to draw the string.

As expected, Atalanta pulled away... a tiny bit after exerting her breastfeeding strength.

Ashes hugged Atalanta, stepped on the bow with one foot, and pulled the bow to the full moon with one hand.

"Your current strength is not enough. When you grow up, you may be able to draw this bow. At that time, I will give you this bow." He said.

Atalanta was frustrated at the beginning because she didn't have enough strength to pull the bowstring, but after hearing Ashes' words, she showed a big smile: "Well then, Dad! When the time comes, I will draw this bow Open it for you to see!"

"...Okay, I'll wait." Ashes touched Atalanta's head, and then put her down.

He took out the white tree bow from the soul space and handed it to Atalanta.

"Before then, you have trained with this bow, Atalanta."

Atalanta took the white tree bow and nodded.

"Okay, then first you need..." Ashes began to teach Atalanta how to shoot arrows.

Atalanta was earnestly learning from Ashes.

Then, Ashes let go of his hand and watched Atalanta shoot the first arrow in his life.

"pat"

The arrow shot by Atalanta landed not far from her.

The atmosphere was quiet for a while, looking a little awkward.

In the end, Ashes stepped forward, picked up the arrow, and handed it to the sluggish Atalanta: "It doesn't matter, Atalanta."

He knelt down and looked at Atalanta: "When I first learned archery, I was not even as good as you. Because I couldn't shoot arrows at all."

Recalling the first fire transfer reincarnation when I just woke up, I got the longbow and some arrows from the high wall of Lothric.

Ashes then tries to drive away the Lothric wyverns he encounters on the road with arrows.

Put the arrow on the bow, tighten the bowstring, let go.

As a result, the arrow fell powerlessly directly at his feet.

The scene at that time was very embarrassing, Ashes felt that the flying dragon's eyes flashed with astonishment and ridicule.

Afterwards, he was sent back to the campfire by the Lothric wyvern.

Recalling how he didn't understand anything back then, a smile flashed in Huihui's eyes: "So Atalanta, don't be discouraged."

"Now, go ahead."

He put his hand on Atalanta's hand, put the arrow on the bowstring, and then held the small hand with his big hand, and drew the bowstring.

This time, the arrow hit the target steadily.

"Before it was just because your shooting position was wrong."

Let go of your hand, Ashes said.

Atalanta looked at the arrows on the target in the distance, and her mood suddenly cleared up. After all, she was still a child.

Selectively ignoring the fact that she shot the arrow with the help of Ashes, she happily jumped up on the spot.

The sound of heavy footsteps came, and Ashes looked at the person who came.

Yi Guo took off his deformed helmet given by Ashes, "Sister told me, let me take you to the temple, the goddess Athena wants to see you."

He said with some displeasure.
