Chapter 108: Weird Condition
The rugged man caressed the seal on Kent's letter. After confirming that it was legit, he opened the letter and went through the contents of the letter. Maybe, due to the effect of wine, he is dozing off while trying to focus on the letter.
"Boy, where are you coming from?" The rugged man asked without moving his gaze from the letter.
"Elder, my name is Kent. I'm coming from Silver Leaf Town, which is far away from here." Kent replied calmly.
"How did you come here? The path is almost blocked by obstacles." The rugged man questioned while taking a sip from his wine jar.
"My pet burned everything in its path," Kent replied casually while pacing his hand on the mane of Fire Kirin.
The rugged man moved his gaze and observed the Fire Kirin for a second. "Nice pet… Now go back to the same place where you came from." The elder replied in a lazy tone.
Kent felt surprised by the elder's sudden statement. "Why? Did I make any mistake?" Kent asked in a perplexed tone.
The elder took a sip and released a loud burp before speaking. "Boy, don't be an idiot. Do you see any disciples here? You don't know anything about this place. So, better leave before it's too late." The elder uttered it in a loud tone.
"Elder, I know about your feud with the Poison clan and also know that more than 1200 disciples died on this peak." Kent spoke in a serious tone.
The rugged elder, who prepared to take a sip from his wine jar, paused for a moment and turned his gaze towards Kent.
"Then what are you doing here? Do you want to commit suicide?" The elder asked with a serious look. After hearing the name of the poison sect, his tone changed a little.
"No, elder, I just want to become a strong person and protect myself." Kent replied honestly while rooting for the spot.
The elder, who didn't think much about Kent, stared at him with a curious look. "Boy, you came to the wrong place. I can't protect myself from my enemies. So, stop wasting your time here. Go and try your luck at burning sun peak." The elder replied with a deep sigh as his past memories swirled in his brain.
Kent also fell in a deep thought after hearing the elder suggestion. He didn't come here with much hope, and going to Burning Sun Peak is always a backup plan for him.
"Elder, please wait for a moment." Kent stopped the rugged elder, who is preparing to get back on the chariot. The elder paused in his tracks and turned toward Kent.
"Elder, is your name Porus?" Kent asked for confirmation. The elder nodded to his question with a dazed-off look.
"The Autumn Wind sect elder said you were proficient in bow mastery. Is that true?" Kent asked while staring at Elder Porus.
"Yeah, once I broke the gate of the autumn wind sect with one single arrow. Maybe because of that, the short lady played a joke on me by sending you with a cursing letter." Porus replied with a smirking smile.
"What?! A cursing letter?!!!" Kent eyes wide in surprise after listening to what Porus said, and before Kent ask anything, the elder tossed the recommendation letter at Kent.
Kent hurriedly picked up the letter and went through its contents. As he reached the end, his fists clenched, and he tore the letter into pieces.
"Sorry, Elder. I never expected such a powerful lady to behave like a crude person." Kent bowed in respect with a serious face.
"It's okay, boy. You already took enough of my time. Let me sleep peacefully." Porus replied in a lazy tone while climbing the steps of that silver coloured chariot.
"Elder, wait…" Kent stopped again with a loud shout.
With an irritated stomp, Porus turned again to look at Kent. Join the adventure on m,vlemp _y,r.
"Elder, I also use a bow as my weapon. Please take me in as a disciple." Kent requested earnestly while staring at Elder Porus with anticipation.
Porus, who was drinking wine, suddenly tossed the wine jar inside the chariot. "Boy, stop wasting my time. You already know the danger. So, don't be stubborn and lose your life." Porus said while controlling his staggering body.
"Elder. I'm just a single disciple... you can easily protect me. If not, hide me somewhere in the corner and teach me your skills. I'm willing to face the consequences to master the bow." Kent replied in a hurried tone while moving a step forward, worried that the staggering elder might fall from the chariot staircase.
Porus felt irritated with Kent's nagging. With a head shake, he held onto the chariot with a tight grip.
"Brat, stay here until evening. Focus on the ground shadow and kill the flying creatures without looking up. If you kill at least 1,000 flying creatures, I will consider your offer. Also, don't use any spells. Just the aura arrows, and don't hesitate kill some flying creatures." Porus replied in a lazy tone.
Kent gave a weird look after hearing Porus's condition. "Elder, why…"
Before Kent could ask anything, Porus stumbled forward and fell into a chariot. Soon, Kent heard a loud snoring.
"What should I do now? It seems like burning the sun is the only option." Kent muttered in a baffled tone after encountering Porus's weird request and strange behavior.
But soon he realized what he came for. "It's better to become the head of a cat than the tail of a tiger." Kent murmured as he took out his bow and aimed at the sky.
His gaze fixed on the ground, and a bow placed above his head. As the morning sun is still rising on one side, Kent failed to grasp the faint shadows on the ground.
The Fire Kirin stood beside him, staring grimly at the sky. The Victor bow in his hands is very heavy, and just after 30 moments, Kent began feeling the weight of his bow.
