Supreme Archer: Taking The Game's Weakest Class To The Top

Conveniently, Mary and Robert\'s levels were so high that no monster wanted to approach them.

Meaning Jake could freely look around and make notes for his solo adventure here.

At the forest\'s feet, he\'d noticed the soldiers\' tents and them standing on guard. Occasionally, the monsters\' numbers would grow so high that the forest was forced to spill them out, creating a monster tide.

It wasn\'t a threat to the capital, but it was surely a nuisance.

A few villagers outside were in danger during those times, and some losses couldn\'t be spared. Of course, players loved those monsters\' tides, as it was cool, heroic, and simple.

After all, no one had to go to the forest and search for monsters.

While players would indulge in the fun of a monster tide and battle lust, the guards would do their best to protect their kin and scout a few clearheaded players to assist them. With the quest feature, it wasn\'t difficult.

\'So far, I\'ve seen like raw wild monsters, halves, and tree monsters,\' Jake commented. The forest was magical, continuously producing monsters and even taking a few natural animals to its side.

It meant that wild monsters similar to the tutorial island\'s residents dwelled here on top of the forest monsters.

The latter was as though someone had breathed the demonic mana into the previously peaceful forest, giving birth to the tree monsters that would die upon losing their health points—the only way to kill them.

Though he may have been in the forest for around ten minutes, Jake had already seen nearly all the monsters the forest offered to the newbie players.

The moving trees, foxes with branches and bushes sprouting from their backs, and common feral boars he would be able to see in the real world—Jake had seen all except the bosses, the dungeon, and strangely, Leavie Bears.

"Leavie Bear must be tastier than a normal bear," Jake commented.

Robert smiled, "You could say mana is tasty. It\'s also nourished by the forest, so this kind\'s meat is of a higher quality and with naturally more mana."

"Oh," Jake nodded.

Robert chuckled, "I\'ve asked our friends from the guild about this common quest. They told me that the demand for this meat is high in Last Night, and various restaurants are in a heated battle for it. We might have been done down."

"I mean, anyone could tell you two are high-level players, so I\'m not surprised," Jake shrugged.

It wasn\'t offensive, but the casual quest was far from the casual if the information was true.

Mary didn\'t seem to have been offended, at least. She kept leading them deeper into the forest as though she knew directions. After some time, Jake noticed that fewer and fewer players were around them.

"You know this forest?" Jake asked his sister.

Smirking, Mary looked over her shoulder and said, "I can see that others don\'t want to hang out around here, so I\'m interested to see what\'s going on."

"You don\'t expect anything serious if you\'re still in casual clothes," Jake sighed. She must have forgotten already that they were here for the casual quest…

After some time, the scene straight from some novel unfolded before them.

A female group of six high-level players stood in the clearing, with a newbie player wielding a staff perched in the middle of that formation. Her eyes were closed, and she held her staff dearly.

It must have seemed like she was being bullied by them, but the truth was that the player had just fought a monster and needed some time to regenerate her mana and let her psyche rest.

Mary\'s lips curved into a devil smile, "Who it might be! The little chicks of Raven Guild! Since when you care about your newbie players so much? It looks to me like this chick suffered losses on her first character and was forced to create a new one! It wouldn\'t be the first time for your guild pals!"

"Mary June!" the group representative came forth, "You here to pick a fight? An idiot like you couldn\'t be here for another reason! How did you find out about us?"

Mary puffed out her chest, "Seems like fate wants me to steamroll your party again! Perfect timing! I\'ll show my bro how awesome his big sister is! You six! Come at me. If you don\'t want to, I don\'t mind going for a player kill.

No one can really trouble me around here!"

The woman across Mary twisted her face, "You really want to damage the already feeble relationship between our guilds, do you? Going so far as to player kill us close to the Warmonger Empire!"

Mary\'s eyes turned into jades.

She noticed that the opposite party wasn\'t as vulgar as they used to be while picking up a fight with her and that they didn\'t even want to fight her! In other scenarios, Raven Guild\'s high players wouldn\'t have spoken like that and stooped so low to speak about their relationship so early!

Jake, however, wasn\'t interested in this typical argument.

He didn\'t know what happened between Mary\'s and Raven Guild.

In fact, he turned to Robert, only to see the man no longer standing beside him. Instead, Robert was before Mary, his body clad in white-green heavy armor. He was encased from head to toe, looking like the white knight Mary had spoken about…

Jake whistled, "Your white knight is here! Don\'t mind me. I\'ll go and search for Leavie Bear."

Alas, Mary caught him and held him in place with her higher strength, stemming from level bonuses and accessories, which was quite odd for her class.

She said, "You\'re about to witness your sister\'s greatness! Shut up and watch!"

"You\'re so stupid at times, aren\'t you? I told you there\'s a real challenge for you tomorrow! Why would you go fight some players and risk losing to them?" Jake asked.

"Losing? That hasn\'t even crossed my mind!" Mary replied with a pride swelling her heart.

That was when Robert spoke, "It doesn\'t seem they want to fight us, though."

"They\'re losers," Mary sneered.

Robert shook his head, "It\'s not just that. I think it\'s because of the newbie player in the middle. If you really want to trigger them, target her."

Jake rubbed his forehead, "Robert… I thought you were the rational side in your relationship."

"Haha! It\'s a game, right? We can have some fun!" Robert grinned.

Jake sighed, "So that\'s why you two spend more time here than in the real world… no wonder she\'s still living with us."

Following her boyfriend\'s advice, Mary focused all her fun on the newbie player across her.

Because of her uncensored words and the implications she threw at the newbie mage, the high-level players of the Raven Guild grew so pissed that their faces were red and contorted.

The newbie player, however, squeezed herself out of the group and smiled at Mary.

"You\'re wrong about me being an experienced player. This is my first account and character… I\'m a newbie in flesh and blood, though I had spent a lot of time on the tutorial island for a few reasons," the woman said in a soothing and flowing voice. Jake wouldn\'t be surprised if she were a singer in real life.

Her nickname was…

[AAAAAAAA Lv. 10 HP: 760/760 MP: 3100/3100]

The representative of her group chimed in, "Maria! You don\'t have to explain yourself to her!"

Maria smiled, "I know you\'re holding back because of me. I\'m already taking your precious time, which is why I don\'t want you all to suffer any losses."

With her arms crossed, Mary thought aloud, "Sounds like a certain someone behind me!"

When Mary turned around, however, Jake was no longer there.

"Eh? Where is he?" Mary asked her boyfriend.

Robert was as surprised as her. He shook his head.

It was Maria who pointed her staff in the direction in which Jake had run away.

Robert narrowed his eyes and thought, \'She\'s not opened her eyes… so how does she know that?\'

Meanwhile, Mary screamed, "JAKE! Come here, you little bastard!"

She ran off in the direction Maria had directed.

Compelled to follow her, Robert turned around and ran after her. One by one, the pieces of his heavy equipment disappeared on its own to his inventory. In less than twenty seconds, Robert returned to his casual clothes, meaning he could catch up to Mary quickly.

Maria let out a relieved sigh when the trio was gone. "I must thank Mary November\'s brother."

"Forget about her! If it were another day, we already would be at each other\'s throats!" the representative of the guard replied, her voice louder and confident.

Maria curved her lips into an adorable smile, "That\'s why I want to speak with only her brother. Has anyone of you been able to see through his nickname?"

Another woman replied, "He doesn\'t display his nickname, but I could see it with my thief class. It\'s Archer."

"Thank you," Maria nodded. "I want to add him to friends… can you help me?"

"Yes, wish for your game system to appear visible to me," the representative replied, familiar with this request.

It was because Maria was blind, meaning she couldn\'t see any game system features.
