The First Store System

Chapter 784: Bet(2)

Clang clang clang!

Sounds of metallic clashes continuously rang in the area as Elle’s arrows and the opponent’s arrows continued to clash with each other.

It had been around nine hundred hours since Elle had appeared in the training area.

In these last hundreds of hours, Elle’s growth could be seen by the naked eyes.

When she had begun the training, the most Elle could do was launch an attack on the opponent. As time flew by, the intensity of her shots increased, and they began to cause severe injuries.

Now, Elle could fight for several minutes continuously with the opponent, with not one of them coming to the top.

The current battle between Elle and her opponent had been going on for several minutes. Both combatants had used several of their trump cards in the fight, but no one was able to come on top.

Elle’s forehead was wet with sweat as she skillfully dodged an arrow by dunking herself down.

The opponent also got the taste of dodging as an arrow flew by the place where her throat was a moment earlier.

A few more minutes flew by, and the battle continued at the same pace.

Neither Elle nor the opponent had unlimited endurance to battle for eternity, and it began to show as their movement began to dull with time.

The training area pitted an opponent with the same level as the trainee, so both opponent and Elle were feeling the taxing of the battle.

Their entire body was wet with sweat with blood mixed here and there, resulting in creating the illusion of tragic beauty.

Their clothes had already turned into dust due to the fast pace battle. So both the combatants were fighting without a single piece of protection on their bodies.

At the same time, the chill prevalent in the area also pervaded their naked skins.

Their breaths began to turn heavy as time passed. There was no such thing as rest in the battle in the training area, so they continued to persist as they battled.

Injuries began appearing on both their skins since their movements had gotten dull. Their body was no longer able to catch up with their thought’s speed.

Chi chi chi!

Suddenly the fog began burning around the opponent, and out of nowhere, a heat emerged around her.

Elle’s face turned ugly as she sensed the sudden change around the opponent. She was already aware of what was to come and already had contingency plans, but her body was in no condition to listen.

Since things had already come this far, Elle wasn’t willing to let go of the win.

She decided to give her everything in the next strike, even if it meant her death after it. She wanted to have as many chances as possible on her side.

The next moment, Elle’s face turned red. Not long after, her entire body turned red like a tomato.

The snow below her feet began to melt, while her body began to expand. The expansion was especially prevalent in her hands.

Even the bow in her hands began to shake due to the sudden increase in the strength of the holder.

Elle’s face turned cold as she stretched the bowstring using her left hand, only to stop when her fingers touched her nose.

The next moment, an arrow began to emerge on the already nocked brow, beginning from its tail feathers.

The entire arrow was black in color, with golden lines moving around it. At the same time, the arrow had the thickness of tens of arrows at once.

The already trembling bow began to shake even more as the weight of the arrow nocked into it was too heavy for it to handle.

Elle’s face began to turn pale as she forcefully controlled the bow and arrow. The next moment, she coughed a bucket of blood. Not long after, the golden lines on the arrow began to dim.

The arrow on the bow’s name was Burning Essence. As it suggested, the creation of the skill demanded the archer to burn their blood essence.

The more blood essence the archer would burn, the more the strength of the arrow would be when shot.

Elle could only burn thirty percent of her blood essence. Despite that, the arrow had already grown strong enough to shake her.

The bow slowly began to crack as the arrow finally took shape. There was no arrowhead, but in place of it, a pointy surface was there.

Crack crack crack!

Boom!

Elle couldn’t handle the arrow any longer, so she released the bowstring while cracks were spreading across the bow.

Within seconds of the arrow leaving the bow, Elle crashed to the ground, and the bow exploded into a golden cloud, knocking Elle further to the surface.

The white snow turned into a tragic yet beautiful scenery as Elle lay there on her last breath while her blood dyed the snow beneath her.

Using whatever energy was left in Elle’s body, she struggled to raise her head and look at the result of her arrow. Before she could, her eyes turned blank as the scenery around her turned dark.

When Elle regained consciousness, she found herself in the empty space with the choices in her head. An ugly smile appeared on her face, but the training area’s ability acted, and her face turned calm.

***

In the weapons room, there were several people already present in the training area as golden light had covered their bodies and stopped others from harming them.

Suddenly, golden lights around two people began to melt at once.

The duo wasn’t even aware as the system first transferred them to an isolated space, and only after their newfound energy had calmed down did the system bring them back to the weapons room inside the store.

They were none other than William and Elle.

As soon as they came out, they both looked at each other with a similar reaction in their eyes.

The next moment, confusion appeared in their eyes, and soon, it turned into a surprise in Elle’s eyes while shock in William’s eyes.

“Even after winning the battle, I lost,” William helplessly stated.

The expressions in their eyes stated that both of them had won their battles, but since Elle was a late entry with the fourth Sun Elf opponent, she became the bet’s winner.
