Earth's Greatest Magus

Chapter 406 - The Legendary Bow

Chumo spent two days in total, being treated by this group of merchants, who surprisingly were members of an esteemed clan.

As it was still part of the quest from the king, he didn't reveal his identity despite the questions asked to him.

The young lady from Clan was strangely very caring and attentive towards Chumo, who was a total stranger.

"My name is Sosoeno What's yours?"

"..."

Unfortunately, every time he met a beautiful girl, he finds himself unable to speak, the more beautiful the girl the harder it was.

"Erm.. maybe you are still unwell?"

"..."

Receiving no response from the young man before her, the young lady hesitantly spoke the words that barely hung on her tongue. "...Ermmm, are you… mute?"

At her definite offensive words, Chumo only shook his head.

"You're a bit strange, aren't you? fortunately, you are cute." The young lady said with a smile.

"..."

It seemed the two would get along really well. A proactive woman would certainly be a good match for Chumo. She reminded him of a certain beautiful girl who was already taken by his friend.

The next day, Chumo decided to continue on the journey, as he had returned to his peak condition. But then, as he was about to bid farewell, the merchant group was suddenly attacked by bandits, who were obviously trying to rob their merchandise.

At the moment, the merchants were completely surrounded, as their ratio with the bandits was five to one. As they watched the apparent cruelty the bandits showed, the merchants thought they would lose all their goods here, or worse, their life.

Thus, at this exact moment, the quiet and detached young man who they saved suddenly did something that they didn't even dare to imagine for their entire life.

Realizing that these bandits were helpless, Chumo decided to reveal his real prowess

[Immortal Gate - stage 3]

[Battle power 50 (39)]

Faint layers of energy swiftly enveloped Chumo's body, flailing wildly in the air with a bow and arrows in his hand.

The arrows had arrived at its destined fate as Chumo nocked the bow. In the blink of an eye, half a dozen arrows flew and arched through the air as they made their way toward the bandits.

Chumo didn't remain idle, as he immediately dashed, with sword in his hand, after firing the arrows.

There were still too many bandits and more of the merchant's guards were killed.

When the girl was in danger, something magical happened to Chumo more amazing than casting a tier 5 spell.

Chumo amazingly was able to shout at the Girl  "Sosoeno!"

He then immediately cast a spell and the area was completely shrouded by smokes that obstructed vision. The young lady and the others could only hear dozens of screams behind the smoke. It was apparent they came from the bandits who fell one by one.

When the smoke dissipated and everyone regained their vision, the merchants were shocked to find only Chumo and they still left standing. All the bandits were lying on the ground, either dead or severely injured.

When the predicament was solved, Chumo decided to continue his journey. On that day the merchant group's precious goods were safe from the bandit, but their lady's heart was not.

Little did he know that from that moment on, rumors of a mysterious young man possessing untold powers began to spread.

Left behind for three days, Chumo swiftly continued on his journey. He headed to the place where the legendary bow was hidden as fast as he could.

As he galloped through the plains, Chumo wondered if this bow was considered as a high tier artifact. If it was, then perhaps he could bring it together with him to the academy.

After three days of constant galloping, only stopping when absolutely needed, Chumo finally arrived at the mountainous area, where the cave hiding the legendary bow was said to be located. He swiftly followed the clues given and eventually found said cave.

To his surprise, Chumo could hear his brothers' voices when he reached the mouth of the cave. It was clear they were currently inside the cave.

Without further ado, Chumo used [Shadow Step] as he began to sneak inside, moving undetected to one corner of the cave.

There, he saw his two brothers standing in front of an altar. At first glance, it looked unassuming, ordinary even. However, one's glance would instantly be attracted by the giant bow that was placed right on top of it.

The quest given by their father was only to find the bow. Alas, in front of the legendary bow that once belonged to the ancestor of the Dongboyou Kingdom, the two princes couldn't resist the allure and tried to grab the bow.

Prince Daeso the oldest grab the bow and tried to pull it from the altar. The moment he did so, a gust of wind suddenly blew across the cave interior, which startled the three people inside for a while.

The two brothers, as well as Chumo, swiftly returned their attention to the bow. It was almost as tall as an adult human and there was one particular issue with it. The bowstring was not attached to the bow.

The eldest Prince Daeso tried to string the bow - he used his entire strength until his entire face became almost completely red, but the attempt was in vain. Him, who was known as the mighty prince, was unable to bend the bow and strung it with the string.

Unwilling to give up, Prince Daeso tried once again.

"Just a little bit…."

"Little bit more..." he muttered, while subcounsciously gritting his teeth.

Seeing that all his brother's attempts were an inch short to succeed, Prince Yunso encouraged him. "Brother, gather your strength."

Even though he had followed his younger brother's advice, Prince Daeso still failed.

"Weird, there is no bow that you can't string in this world. So why can't you string this bow?" Prince Yunso said, his thoughts flickering. "Let me try it, brother."

Alas, he also met the same fate when he tried to attach the string. The two were unable to bend the bow. In the end, they finally put the bow back to its original place, bowed at it and left the cave. After all there quest to find the bow has been completed.

When the two exited the cave, Chumo walked out of the corner where he hid earlier. It was his turn. Just like his brothers, he picked up the bow and tried to bend the bow.

Chumo felt something strange when his hands touched and held the bow. Now that he tried to string it with all his strength, that sensation became even stronger.

Tap!

A sound could be heard, as Chumo managed to string the legendary bow, restoring it to its original condition.

He smiled happily because he was able to do something his two brothers couldn't.

Immediately, Chumo tried to draw the bow. It was such a great feeling - to be able to draw the giant legendary bow.

But then, the next thing that suddenly happened froze him in his elation.

Creaackkk!!

The bow broke, split into two in his hands. The Dongboyou Kingdom's Sacred Bow was destroyed by Chumo's hands.

"No… no… no… no..."

A series of frantic murmurs resounded throughout the cave, as Chumo tried to think of a solution to salvage the situation.

In the midst of his devastation, Chumo suddenly felt a deluge of spirit force coming out from the bow and entering his body!

At this moment, he felt an indescribable energy filling his entire body.

[Spirit force has increased exponentially]

[Spirit force 250 (185)]

The Sacred Bow's energy was absorbed into Chumo's body, while the latter could only watch in shock. At the same time, another notification popped into his mind.

[You have learned a new skill - Eye of the Raven]

Chumo was so excited! Finally, something to brag to his other 4 friends.

The broken sacred bow, the betrayal of his brothers, and the meeting with the merchant clan.

At that time, Chumo still hadn't realized it yet, but he was slowly destined to fight against his own kingdom by the cruel hand of fate.
