Isekai Journey Of The Magic Archer

The horrified look on the two mother’s faces was harsh and their grave voice that begged the grandfather to say what he said was false but, they heard it right.

“That’s what going on down there, dear. But, do not worry. It is ok-”

“How is it ok!!?”

The boy’s mother shouted with wide eyes and a sudden pressure engulfed the whole pavilion.

The people watching this on the other side started falling unconscious just from the sudden force and, as if someone had suddenly hit them in the gut, the caption and vice-captain fell to the ground.

The enraged mother wanted answers to this absurd situation and her father and the grandfather of the ones fighting down there couldn’t help but answer helplessly to this poor daughter.

“Nol. You also know it, so don’t overreact. Think deeply about what an [ZONE] actually is.” He smiled at her and patted her head while still standing in his place.

His touch was special, and this calm, cool, soothing feeling managed to calm this daughter down.

She was meeting her son after a long six years and this was the first time in all her life that she was seeing her son fight against an opponent.

She knew he was now far stronger than many present here, but it was still unbelievable that this son of hers, a boy who had yet to celebrate his 12th birthday, could do something even some masters like her father could achieve after long tough situations.

[ZONE]

A special condition where an individual can exert nearly a hundred percent of their potential.

And this was not just about their physical limitations.

The one experiencing this condition becomes hyper-perspective in true meaning.

They can perceive everything, even a fly in the deep corner of their territory.

They can think twice or even faster, calculate situations in no time at all, and achieve the state of becoming one with their mind.

While being in this state, they don’t have to think, there would be no need to think because the body would work on its own to complete the needed task.

Mind, the most complex part of any intelligent creature, works faster and even better, resulting in greater natural strength enhancements.

This state of mind, though powerful, is a very rare thing.

However strong one is, there are certain conditions one had to fulfill to enter this state which can elevate the natural strengths of the individuals.

A (tier-4) mage can easily perform (tier-5) spells.

A [Rank-3] knight can exert strength far surpassing their rank.

Or even a musician can play songs that defy logic.

But for that…

One has to have a certain amount of strength and understanding of their body.

Instincts that surpass basic human responses.

A suitable physical body that can handle all the rush from the mind and the most important factor that defines if one will actually enter this state.

The love for what they are doing…

“They fulfill all conditions. Or more, they surpass them.

One is a ferocious beast known throughout the empire for being a sword genius. While the other is a survivor who has survived among ferocious beasts like her.

Or maybe more ferocious than her.

They fulfill all that and I know you can’t see it, dear Nol and Aug, but those two are smiling the brightest I had seen.

And believe me, nothing will happen to Carla. That boy… he’s an expert.”

Her father reassured her with a bright smile on his face and nodded at the calmed-down mothers.

This was an unreal moment, even for the three old experts.

The young ones here and even their parents had never been to actual war or anything of such scale, but the four older ones had.

And even while living this life full of miraculous things, this was the first time they were witnessing something like this.

The [ZONE] was a condition one only achieved in desperate situations.

And a situation where, even while the win or defeat is certain, you enjoy the process, the journey, and the path.

Or… you would need a situation where you just want to live from an impossible enemy.

Well, it was something similar to the process of where one archives Aura but, this was different.

This state of mind was far more than just having the power of Aura.

They both already had Aura but, right now, the one who had experienced [ZONE] for far longer and even made deeper progress in it was guiding a worthy beast to the doors of this state.

The giant door requires great strength to just push open.

And from how she was nearing there, and he was just maintaining his mind just before the doors and waiting for her to reach there, they knew this boy had already reached their level in the control.

His body and mind had reached the state where he can control them at his will and this level… and him being barely 12…

“Haaa… just what happened in the time he was gone? And what methods did this master use to push him to this level?

And just how hard a child like him had worked to actually have these strengths, and even those survival instincts.

Just how hard did he try to survive from strong beings whose entire body knew how to avoid things?

And after all these unreal things, he is barely showing his actual strength.” He sighed deeply while looking back at the two magnificent children.

One was aiming for greatness, while the other had no desire other than protecting his family.

Just from the expression on his face, one can tell he felt blessed to have them as his grandchildren.

And everyone related to him felt the same.

The little Anna, who was sitting on the other side, in Zoe’s lap, sighed helplessly while looking at everyone’s faces.

They just worried a lot for no reason and while she can feel their emotions, she can’t actually reply to them.

There was no need for her to do anything here, because their emotions right now were also, in a way, happy ones.

So, she just looked in the front like she had been doing all the time with her big sisters and cheered for her other sister and brother, who were having a blast on the ground.

Reinelle and Zoe can actually see everything and even feel the excitement he was feeling, but, although little Anna can’t see them, she felt them perfectly.

She could feel just how much fun they were having and deep down, she also wanted to play with them like this.

So maybe this also triggered something inside her.

But for now, she was having fun while watching this fight that was invisible to her gorgeous, unique eyes.

That was it for the ones on the watching side but, the ones fighting down there were done with their playtime.

-Boooooom!

With a large explosion sound that made another crater bigger than any previous ones, the two opponents that had been invisible all this time came into sight.

The girl was now standing on one side with a red sword in her hands, which was covered in orange-black flame-like energy.

Her eyes were glowing in red and the dot of light has now fully bloomed into a true spark of lightning, crackling in those blank eyes.

She was now calmer than ever, sharper like no other, and more ferocious than she had ever been.

If she was a ferocious beast before, now, she was that ferocious beast with open claws and teeth ready to tear apart the opponent.

But right now, even if she can attack the opponent, she was waiting for something while blankly looking at the opponent standing on the other side with pieces of his bow laying on the ground.

The pure white bow, the same (level-9) artifact he had been using for a while, was now destroyed in pieces, cut down with a sharp weapon with strong flames.

He was looking down, smiling in fulfillment of his goal for this fight.

His goal was achieved and now, all that was left was having some fun until the opponent is defeated or gives up.

So, he looked in the front, at this big sister who had reached the level few could fathom.

And he was genuinely happy she made it this far in this short spar they had.

“Truly, big sister. You are amazing~! Let’s have something like this one once in a while~!”

His cheerful voice was also genuine and… Anna, Zoe, and Reinelle giggled at those words.

The elders just sighed while the sister he asked this, just smiled in happiness and nodded.

She was thankful, and now she wanted to defeat this boy even more.

And he understood this, so he nodded his head and the arrows from his back vanished as a golden spear-like arrow appeared in his hands.

“Let’s end this…” he said in a quiet voice that reached few and closed his eyes for a moment.

His new weapon surprised everyone other than Reinelle, who had faced it, but… even more surprising thing was something every one of them was seeing for the first time.

The gorgeous Aura that covered the weapon and burned more fiercely than even hers. 𝗼𝐯𝐞𝐥．𝐜𝐨𝗺

But unlike the one carrying courage and sincerity like hers, this one… was special in itself.
