Isekai Journey Of The Magic Archer

The world outside the window was something I always saw in the morning and whenever I was bored.

And with my mystic eyes that can see the faraway boundary, I liked seeing this beautiful sight.

This was something I enjoyed, and seeing things that appeared within my range was also something I loved to study.

I played with my skill all the time I had been here and used it in various ways.

I had this skill from the moment of my awakening, and I loved it.

It had saved me countless times from the moment I fall into this hell-like forest.

I knew all the things I can do with this skill and I was confident about that.

I knew the strengths and weaknesses of this skill but, now, after it suddenly evolved with my breakthrough, this thing had become something totally different.

"Wow..." I exclaimed as I looked outside of the window with this skill.

Or... something like seeing everything with the eyes of a different person.

As if I had three eyes, I can see things with this new type of vision.

And... this third eye was free from the limitations my skill previously had.

This third eye was something I can move however I liked it.

I can go down with it and see the grass up close.

See the flowers I could only see in the form of a magnified image.

This was definitely something awesome.

This third eye... I can do things I wasn't able to do previously.

The burden on me was also not that much and with the golden fruit with me, I can manage to use this skill almost for hours before needing any rest.

I tried playing with this.

Making the eye go to the places I couldn't see from this side.

I circled the tower with this new ability and these eyes, different from Celes's, can see far away from the place I was standing.

And that wasn't the only thing they can do.

"Yes. Just believe in yourself and you will be all good." She said with a confident smile that knew what I was doing and wanted to do it with full certainty.

With a nod, I stopped on a certain flower on the backside of the tower and focused my attention on it.

I didn't see it myself but, at this moment, my eyes had turned blue.

============

[Polinom]

->A Mana flower carrying high-density Mana.

->Can be used in Mana regeneration potion as well as material for the creation of something.

->Can't be used by someone with lower mental fortitude.

->You can use it and this will be somewhat helpful to relieve the stress of a long chanting spell.

============

"Is this..." I couldn't believe it but, now, these eyes can appraise something my previous appraisal skill couldn't even say the name of.

"Now, you can even appraise the divine artifacts that you couldn't see anything about.

Actually, this ability has no limitations aside from the fact that you have to at least know something about the target, or else if the target is too powerful or something like that, the results would be unsatisfactory.

Well, this is the second one but, there's still a third one.

It's a fear-inducing ability, something you already know about.

It's a strong one and will help you in fights.

Naturally, it's nothing in front of me but, if I had to say it myself, then..." she looked at me and smiled mischievously.

Her explanation was too thorough as if she knew about this skill, and maybe about myself better than myself.

Well, actually, it might be true and I had the hunch it was.

"Well, I know more about you than you know so, don't worry.

And, this skill can easily make something below your strength bow down to you.

It will be scary effectively against humans so, I will suggest never use against others if not necessary.

You're smart, so I know you will understand.

Your normal eyes that can see far away are red.

The third eye can see around a long-distance, blue.

And the eye that makes one crawl in the presence of a higher being, eyes that will look down upon every being, silver.

That's a rare ability and just from the diverse uses, you can understand why it's close to impossible for someone as young as you to have a (Stage-2) ability, right?

In your words, this ability is broken, and it definitely is, with no doubt.

But... it's your skill, Eon. And you are the one that controls it."

Her voice was stern at the end, it was as if she was saying something important in the form of those words.

She had done this many times, and I didn't know why I made a special place in my mind for these kinds of words of hers.

I already knew this ability was mine, and I was the one who had it.

There was nothing difficult about it.

But, yeah, this thing was definitely broken.

I had seen the fear skills. I knew just how effective they were.

This new ability that I obtained after years... was something that might be impossible to upgrade further.

Something that will always be this way and I had no problem with that as I knew... just mastering, this power will take me a long, long time.

She had told me about the use of this new ability but; I had no doubt she didn't say everything about them.

She never tells everything, leaving the hard work of finding out to me.

All she said were hints and I will have to figure out everything about this skill like anything else.

Well, having this head start was a good thing.

I had a new ability and now, I can do more things because I had cleared the first blockage of the body.

I wanted to do many things and learning new things from her was one of them.

But, as she had always done, she read my mind, and this time... she patted my shoulders and I looked at her.

She had a happy, sad, and excited expression on her face.

It was more complicated to read than watch, as I could never read her eyes.

Or her...

"Listen, my student Eon," she called out my name with a serious expression.

She had called out her student, not the Eon, not the child, not the little one but her student.

This was the most serious I had seen her.

Again… this sudden mood swing of hers.

And this one was the biggest.

"Yes..." I, as her student, answered her call.

"I have nothing else to teach you." She said in a stern voice, serious to the core, and looked deep into my eyes that had gone blank from the sudden thing.

"...what?"

That was the only word that came out of me as I looked back into those fiery, pure blue eyes.

She meant what she just said... and I couldn't accept what she just said, even after knowing a day like this would come.

But... this was very soon!!!

"Don't be surprised, Axion. We both knew this was coming. I taught you everything you need and will need for now.

The library has vast knowledge you can gain until you are satisfied.

You have everything you will need here, so prepare yourself.

For your final exam as my student... as well as my successor.

We will do it around next year, so... start preparing." She sighed deeply after dropping this sudden bomb on me, leaving me utterly speechless.

​ Exam? For what?

More importantly... what's with that deep sigh, as if a burden had lifted from her shoulders?

A great one at that.

She dropped the bomb on me, and I was the one whose teachings suddenly ended without any notice or anything.

Yes, she taught me surprisingly too much... to the point I don't even know how to do many of the stuff.

Her verbal and information lessons covered a great number of things that I didn't think would find anywhere else.

She taught me the magic circle formulas and all the basics I would need in my path.

I consider myself one of the most well-taught kids of my age.

But I wanted more from her... this wasn't enough.

"Don't think too much, Eon. I'm not going anywhere.

You can ask me anything you don't understand or something too difficult after you try it many times.

Actually, I was able to teach after that long of a time because it was you, Eon.

You were better than I thought and you exceeded my expectations like no other.

I thought it would take at least three years at that normal, playful phase, but... you finished in half of the time.

As your teacher and grandma, I'm overjoyed to say this.

You're amazing... Eon." She patted my head with the warm smile of my grandma and that made me sigh.

"I will do well, grandma..." I hugged her after saying that.

She said around next year, so I will be almost twelve by then.

That would be her test, and that meant I would go back after some time.

She maybe knew I was strong enough, but I still lacked many things.

There were many possibilities but, I was just an abnormal human.

I could never understand what she was thinking.

She hugged me back too, with a sad and relieving touch.

She was happy for various reasons but, in the end... this was the end.

At the end of my peaceful time of thinking, I had all the time in the world.

Now I lacked that very thing the most, time.

And there were still many books I had to finish in that library.

It would be tough from now on, but I knew... it would all work out well.

I believed her, and that was all I can do, anyway.
