#Episode 4
Professor Park snapped his fingers.
widely-!
At the same time.
A strong wind and rain began to blow at the training center.
Hwiii profit-
The wind was so strong and blowing.
It was to the point where I couldn’t hear Professor Park’s words clearly.
As Minjun watched the scene change in an instant, old memories came back to him.
‘It was a boring training method during my professional days. Anyway, it’s really amazing. ‘The weather can change with a snap of your fingers!’
An archery training center that is inferior to other outdoor training centers.
Still, it could be said that the system was equipped with state-of-the-art facilities.
With one snap of Professor Park’s finger, the environment changed 180 degrees.
Since the bow is greatly affected by the wind, I was able to understand Professor Park’s intention.
Even so, Minjun was not embarrassed.
As I said before.
During my professional days, of course there was rain and wind.
Even when a blizzard came, he was the one holding the bow.
Those were the days when I did not hesitate to train every day with the dream of being selected for the national team.
Minjun felt as if he had gone back to that time.
‘It’s a game worth playing if you’re looking for persimmons!’
Minjun couldn’t hear Professor Park’s words clearly because of the strong wind and rain.
Even so, I knew what he wanted to say.
“I admit that Cha Min-jun achieved the highest score. But you can’t easily get the Xenix Ring just by hitting nine arrows.”
It wasn’t wrong.
There are about 2,000 hunters enrolled here at Xenics Academy.
Among them, only 3% of students were given Xenix rings.
Most of the students in Class B and above had Xenix rings, and their skills were also spectacular.
On the other hand, Cha Min-jun is only a member of Class D.
Giving him a Xenics ring was an awkward task for Professor Park.
It was true that a clearer cause and impact were needed.
In addition.
In the first place, offering the Xenics ring as a prize was simply a ploy to increase Class D’s concentration in class.
In fact, I never thought that Cha Min-jun would have this level of archery skills.
‘I had no idea that an unexpected person was in Class D. I never thought I would turn my back on these guys. But, this would be impossible. Aiming, intensity, direction… If you calculate anything wrong, it will be difficult to get even close to the target, let alone reach it!’
Meanwhile, Minjun, who showed the most decent skills in class D, was a little disappointed.
‘You probably didn’t intend to give it to me in the first place! The very act of displaying a Xenix ring in a test of this level was wrong!’
That doesn’t mean I didn’t understand Professor Park’s remarks.
Even though Xenix Academy has not produced an archer hunter for a long time, it was clear that the first test was not a difficult test at all.
It is just a test created by Professor Park, taking into account the level of Class D.
If students in Class B or higher had taken this test, the rarity of the Xenics ring would have been greatly reduced.
Meanwhile, Minjun wanted to break the thoughts of Professor Park, who seemed to have no intention of giving the Xenics ring.
There is still strong rain and wind blowing.
Minjun listened as hard as he could and tried to hear Professor Park’s story in detail.
“Fortunately, the two students exceeded expectations. I won’t say anything more after this test. What if you hit the target with just one shot, through strong wind and rain, within a total of five shots?”
gulp!
Minjun and Kang Junpyo paid attention to the shape of Professor Park’s mouth.
“I will give you this Xenics ring without hesitation! “If you’re not confident, give up now.”
Even though there was strong wind and rain, there was no reason to refuse this test.
Kang Jun-pyo also seemed to have made up his mind.
“It would be funnier to step down from here. “I will take the first step!”
“Look forward to it! “Junpyo.”
He first stood proudly in front of Professor Park and expressed his aspirations.
Professor Park immediately handed five arrows to Kang Jun-pyo.
He had no hesitation.
‘I can never lose to a bridesmaid like that!’
Kang Jun-pyo held the bow tightly.
“Crash shot!”
From the first shot, he shot an arrow using the magical power distributed within his body.
This is because it was judged that it was impossible to penetrate the strong wind and rain by simply shooting arrows.
Hwii-!
But I was just ahead of my motivation.
I tried to gather all the magical energy I had and aim for the center of the target, but it wasn’t easy.
Rather, it was fortunate that he barely hit the top of the target.
“Tsk, what are you asking me to do with such an entry-level bow?!”
Kang Jun-pyo blamed the equipment for no reason.
That’s right too.
For some reason, I left the ‘Crush Bow’ that I always carried in my room today.

If he had tested his favorite crush bow, he would easily have ignored this level of wind.
He judged that he would have been able to hit the center of the target by shooting.
Of course this is.
It was just an excuse for not hitting the center of the target with a single arrow.
Moreover, Kang Jun-pyo not only blamed the equipment, but also gave impudent advice to Cha Min-jun.
“Don’t be puffed up when you see me! Do you think it’s any different for you? you’re welcome.”
“what. “Anyway, I’m a little disappointed.”
“what? I thought it would be different for you. Hehe, don’t get me wrong. “No matter what, you won’t even come close to the target.”
Kang Jun-pyo thought that Cha Min-jun would be no different.
That said, it was not Cha Min-jun who would be greatly shaken by Kang Jun-pyo’s words.
He never lost pace, even on international stages such as the Olympic Games.
Moreover, Cha Min-jun is a person who became a national archery representative after overcoming a competition of 10,000 to 1.
Rather, Kang Jun-pyo’s provocation seemed cute.
‘Let’s just ignore it.’
Minjun didn’t care and grabbed the bow.
I decided to just focus on the current situation.
‘It won’t be easier than before.’
Since there was not a single breeze blowing a while ago, I was able to hit nine arrows.
It was difficult for Minjun to give a definite answer at the moment when the difficulty level had risen sharply.
However, I was definitely confident that I would do better than Kang Jun-pyo.
‘Relax, relax. Phew.’
I closed my eyes and took a deep breath.
Minjun checked the wind strength and direction.
‘From what I could feel, the wind strength was quite strong. The wind is blowing against us.’
First of all, first impressions are important.
With the intention of throwing away one shot, I fired the first shot without hesitation.
Shuuuu-!
As expected.
The first shot was overcome by strong rain and wind and flew to a place that had nothing to do with the target.
“also.”
After a poor first step, Kang Jun-pyo added a chuimsae.
“Heh, that’s right then. What kind of bow are you holding? Just face the fact that this is your limit.”
A move of his mouth to somehow distract Minjun’s concentration.
There was no way Minjun didn’t know.
I just focused on the target.
Also, Minjun’s aiming method was different from the first time.
In some ways, it was a short-range, close target, but Minjun approached it in a different way.
I positioned my bow backwards like a long-distance wet shooter.
This was to ensure that the arrow flew in a direction that was as little affected by the wind as possible.
After holding my breath for 2 seconds, I let go of the bowstring when I thought this was it.
Sigh-
“… … !!”
Although it wasn’t exactly in the center of the target, the location of the target that Minjun hit was close to being right on target.
‘This is all I need!’
Minjun fired the remaining arrows one after another based on the intuition he gained right away.
puck-!
puck-!
The arrow hitting the target got closer and closer to the center.
Professor Park’s pupils widened as he saw Min-jun’s archery skills.
The strength and direction of the wind changes in every situation, and the target is barely visible through the fluttering leaves.
Even in these adverse conditions, Minjun’s sense of stability was truly amazing.
‘Nonsense. ‘I can’t believe there was an archer with such a high understanding of the bow at our Xenix!’
This is an impossible situation unless you are an archer or hunter with natural talent.
However, Minjun got close enough to shoot near the center of the target as if to show off.
The students of Class D were equally surprised by this.
“I… “Is that really Cha Min-jun?”
“I already surpassed Junpyo?”
“The Cha Min-jun I knew wasn’t that kind of kid!”
“If this continues, won’t he actually get the Xenics ring?”
The owner of Xenix’s ring had already been determined.
Even so.
Min-jun, who had always tended to be a perfectionist, was not satisfied.
‘For now, straight aiming is absolutely impossible.’
A situation where four arrows were fired.
Minjun was trying to aim for the center with his remaining foot.
However, there were limits as the wind became stronger along with the headwind.
Minjun looked back on the main character’s actions in the original work.
‘I usually use skills in times like this. From what I saw earlier, it seems like I also have about two skills.’
I don’t know if he can use it right away, but Minjun wanted to try it.
‘situation… window?!’
In the original work, the main character shouted ‘Sangtae Chang’ whenever he got the chance.
Minjun also shouted ‘Status Window’ in his head just in case.
Eventually, a hologram window that copied the original system appeared.
▶Status Window◀
Name ▶ Cha Min-jun
Age ▶ 20 years old
Affiliation ▶ Xenics Academy 1st year
Department ▶ Combat Department, Class D.
Talent ▶ Stamina [D+] Attack [D] Dexterity [D+] Vision [D+] Accuracy [D+] Strength [E] Magic [E+]
Skill ▶ Concentrated Fire [Lv 1] Hail Shot [Lv 1]
Gold ▶ 5,000G
‘It was real!’
Just a moment of joy.
Minjun started comparing the skills he had acquired earlier.
<Concentrated Fire [Lv 1]>
▶Fire toward the designated target.
▶Accuracy increased by 5%. Additional damage increases by 1%.
<Hail Shot [Lv 1]>
▶Fire a whirlwind arrow towards the target point.
▶Ignores climate effects, increases additional damage by 3%.
Minjun, who carefully read the two skills, was particularly focused on one.
‘Ignoring climate impacts?’
Why didn’t I read the skill description in detail earlier? At the same time as I was blaming myself, I was curious about the effect of the ‘Hale Shot’.
‘Hail shot.’
Minjun imitated what the main character did in the original work whenever he wanted to use a skill.
[Activates the ‘Hail Shot’ skill.]
‘!!’
just as expected.
It felt like if I just pulled the bowstring like this, the skill would be activated right away.
Minjun took the same release posture as if he had shot four arrows.
When he felt that he had reached the zero point he thought of, he let go of the protest without hesitation.
Huuuuk-!
The rotational force of the last arrow was amazing.
It is not easy to distinguish this rotational force with the naked eye, but it was unusual to see it fly straight toward the target, lightly ignoring wind resistance.
The elasticity was truly incredible, and the parabola along which the arrow flew was more flawless than ever before.
Taang-!
Minjun accurately hit the center of the target, which appeared to be about 5cm in diameter.
‘it’s okay!’
I felt like I had achieved a great feat comparable to when I achieved the best performance in a national team selection competition in my life.
