Chapter 64: Evelyn Nightshade



"Let's see what you got."

A female student said as she held a bow in her hand with an Arrow resting on her bow strings.

She was strikingly beautiful, with ebony hair that framed her face and captivating forest-green eyes. She was so focused that her forest green seemed to come alive. She could be easily considered the top beauty in the Nova Academy, most boys always drool when they see her figure, and her charms are hard to ignore.

Yes, that's right the female student is Evelyn Nightshade.

Currently, she is inside of Archer ground in Training ground.

She is here to practice her Archery skills.

[ Choose the number of targets you want.]

the robotic system prompted her.

"20." her voice rang through,

[Choose your training difficulty.]

[You can choose from Easy, Medium, Hard, and Perfect. ]

Higher levels naturally meant targets moved quickly. At difficulty Perfect, the targets even attacked. Although the attacks should only sting at best, they were extremely dangerous.

"Hard," she said.

[ Hard difficulty confirmed. ]

[ 3,2,1, .... Start.]

At that monsters started to appear in front of her.

The mole cricket seemed to have noticed her hostility as it began to speed up toward her. It scuttled around without a set movement pattern, but she could see its trajectory.

Predicting its movement by a step, she let go of the strain she was holding in her hand.

-STRING

-THWACK

-THWACK

A yellow electricity appears at her Arrow.

The Arrow multiplied into ten.

It hit all of the targets in its path. The arrow should pierce the mole cricket.

She didn't bother to check the result with her eyes. The moment she let go of the string, she moved on to the next target.

One, two, three, four, ten, fifteen, Eighteen, ...Twenty.

The String was pulled Five times, and the mole crickets that were struck scattered into particles of mana.

"It's not that hard, let's do this again."

She said to herself.

And like that, Evelyn spent one hour inside an archer training ground.

After an hour when her mana has almost exited her body, she stops.

She took the towel I did of the AI bracelet and wiped her sweat.

After doing that

"Status window."

She called her Status window.

===Status===

Name: Evelyn Noghtshade

Rank: E

Strength: E-

Agility: E-

Stamina: E-

Intelligence: D

She thought that Emma, Adrian and Noah would help him but Emma suddenly left the training ground.

Adrian tried to go where Lucas was but Noah prevented him from going.

Evelyn who was watching all of this shook her head and also started to walk to the exit.

But after taking a few steps she's stopped.

She closes her eyes and grits her teeth. She wants to help him but considering their history and what Lucas did to her she won't want to do anything to help him.

'Yes, you are right Lucas was the one who ended the relationship between us, so you don't have to help him.'

"Fuuu."

She thought all of this and sighed leaving her mouth.

She made up her mind and started to go to the exit, but she stole one last glance at him.

And when she glances at him her breath catches up in her lungs.

Why? Because Lucas also looking at her.

Their eyes meet to each other. Like before she found herself lost in those amber-green eyes of his.

It's just like when they were dating each other he had the same eyes that filled with kindness.

She broke eye contact with him and took a deep breath.

Evelyn muttered something to herself.

"You idiot Evelyn, why him of all people, if only he did not come to Nova Academy."

After that, she started to walk toward him.

As she reaches Lucas, he turns his head at the three bullies.

"Move"

He said in a cold voice to them.

Slightly surprised by his response, the leader of the group laughed "Hehehe, who do you think you are to make me move?"

Sigh

Letting out a sigh, he tried to push his way through the trio but it was to no avail.

"You think you can pass without my permission?"

Seeing that the situation was becoming unfavourable for him, Lucas just stopped and looked at Evelyn who reached at him.

Seeing Lucas doing nothing, the trio initially smirked with a sense of superiority.

"yawn"

But soon their smirk turned into anger as looks realised a yawn from his mouth.

Approaching Lucas with intense hatred in their eyes, Like they were about to kill him.

But just as they were about to attack Lucas, a stern voice interrupted them.

"Let's leave it at that shall we?"

Stopping right before Lucas, the trio halted their movement and turned towards the voice that told them to stop.

"Who are you to medd-- ah, Evelyn"

Turning around and figuring out whose voice it was, the trio froze on the spot.

Being in a society where rank meant everything, they were overcome with fear and couldn't stop trembling as soon as they saw who was speaking to them.

"W-ee we-re must lettin-t him know his place"

As his voice trembled, the leader spoke to Evelyn

"And what did he do exactly?"

"Ehm..ehm.."

Overwhelmed by Evlyn's cold, The bully leader started fumbling with his words.

Placing her hand on his shoulder, Evelyn patted him a couple of times.

"Let's leave it here okay?"

Repeatedly nodding his head, he and his group left in hurry.
