#Episode 3
Junpyo Kang.
Combat Department Department D Class Ranking 3rd.
He was born into an archer’s family, and originally intended to enroll in Frow Academy, which has a reputation for its archery department.
However, he could not avoid failing in the entrance exam.
I had no choice but to enter Xenix Academy.
Xenix Academy also initially had a separate archery department that focused on bows.
However, the Department of Archery at Xenics Academy fell short of its quota every year, and it became a department that comprehensively handles swordsmanship and archery with a new name, the Department of Combat.
Literally consolidation.
Meanwhile, Kang Jun-pyo has not yet let go of his attachment to Prow Academy.
I was planning to achieve decent grades here at Xenics Academy and based on that, I would aim to transfer to Prowes Academy.
Did his earnestness work?
In today’s archery class, I couldn’t help but get excited when Professor Park said he was going to conduct a surprise test wearing the ‘Xenix Ring’.
Even though he was in the lower class, Class D, Kang Jun-pyo was confident because he was an expert at archery.
Although out of 10 shots.
Although he failed to aim at the zero point with both shots and did not show a perfect performance, he decided that there was no other classmate here who had more outstanding archery skills than him.
‘Good. Looks like I got the Xenics ring for free. As long as that stupid guy is done.’
Now, only the turn of Cha Min-jun, who had the lowest ranking in class D, remained.
Kang Jun-pyo thought there was no need to see Cha Min-jun’s turn.
That’s right too.
Archery, swordsmanship, magic, etc.
Because Cha Min-jun didn’t have anything special about him, it was absolutely unimaginable that he would fall behind in any event.
Kang Jun-pyo just hoped that Cha Min-jun would quickly waste his ten arrows.
***
Cha Min-jun strengthened his resolve.
In the meantime, I couldn’t help but notice the notification message that appeared in front of me.
[Grant the quest.]
Quest: Out of 10 arrows, hit 9 or more arrows.
Compensation: Slight increase in agility proficiency, slight increase in accuracy proficiency. Granted 5,000G.
‘quest?!’
A similar situation to the original story happened to Min-jun.
quest.
Even in the original version of <Dad’s Palace>, the main character was always given a quest.
Depending on whether or not the quest is completed, the protagonist gains momentum for rapid growth.
When successful, not only does the stat increase, but also a small amount of gold is given, which is the most necessary currency to purchase other talents.
Minjun couldn’t waste time like this, so he put his finger on the string without hesitation.
Minjun recalled his old teacher’s guidance and raised his bow in the direction of the target.
‘Minjun, the bow is like your own attitude. The shoulders must be level, but the angle of the bow must always be vertical. Don’t forget.’
It was like my first intention when I first picked up a bow.
Not only was there no tremor in my hands that I had experienced in this life, but there was also no shaking when adjusting the zero point.
‘It’s in excellent condition!’
Minjun felt as if he had been reborn, feeling stable for the first time in a long time.
Although it was my first time holding a bow in 10 years, it felt familiar.
‘now!’
I held my breath for 3 seconds and at the same time let go of the bowstring I had drawn.
The arrow danced and flew quickly toward the target.
grasp-!
“… … !!”
It didn’t hit the exact center, though.
The arrow almost reached the target on the target board created considering the level of Class D.
For a first shot, this level of accuracy is quite respectable.
The students were surprised by Minjun’s first step because even Kang Jun-pyo of the world could not reach the target with his first step.
“Wow, I hit it almost dead center with my first shot.”
“Cha Min-jun, you’re really lucky.”
“My bangs completely cover my face, so you’re shooting me while they’re still visible?”
“For a first step, is it better than Kang Jun-pyo?”
“Guys, this is only the first step. Don’t you know that? “The first shot is a dog shot?”
The thoughts of all Class D students were the same.
Rather than saying I got it right based on skill, I think it was a lot of luck.
Kang Jun-pyo, who is an expert in archery, thought so at first.
“Heh, you made such a fuss with only one foot. A bow is not judged by one shot. “It’s about overall accuracy.”
“also!”
“Isn’t that going to create a bit of a backlash? “You probably don’t even know where the arrow flew?”
Kang Jun-pyo was sure.
Cha Min-jun will not be able to shoot an arrow at a better level than his first shot.
Meanwhile, Cha Min-jun, who did not feel bad about the first shot, began shooting the remaining arrows in rapid fire.
Wow!
Wow!

Minjun shot the arrow with as simple a movement as possible and with a short aiming time.
The longer the release, the less accurate it is, but the current rhythm is not bad.
Although I haven’t fully adapted to Cha Min-jun’s body yet.
At least the aftereffects such as pain and hand tremors that I felt while shooting a bow were gone, so there was nothing to bother me.
In addition.
The arrow that was fired came close to the exact center of the target board.
Professor Park Ki-chan, who had no expectations for Cha Min-jun, was shocked.
‘Since when did you start shooting a bow so skillfully? Was this something I didn’t know about?!’
Professor Park was impressed by Cha Min-jun’s archery skills, as he hit the target with 7 shots.
I was expecting Kang Jun-pyo to be at a decent level at best.
In addition to showing more stability, it was Cha Min-jun who had the highest level of accuracy.
There was even anticipation in the fact that he still had two arrows left.
Wow!
Wow!
Cha Min-jun shot all ten arrows in an instant.
Although one shot flew behind the target due to a sudden headwind, no matter what anyone said, it was Cha Min-jun who came in first place in this test.
“Cha Min-jun, 9 points!”
[Quest completed.]
[Agility mastery has slightly increased.]
[Accuracy skill has increased slightly.]
[5,000G obtained.]
The process was not easy, but Minjun shot the arrow with more effort than ever.
Perhaps thanks to that, out of 10 arrows.
After completing the quest by hitting the target with as many as 9 shots, he was given a reward.
‘You really give it to me!’
Cha Min-jun felt a sense of accomplishment at completing the quest and joy at the fact that he received the highest score.
This feeling of joy, which I felt for the first time in 10 years, was not only exhilarating, but it also came as a bonus.
‘I can really draw a bow!’
Meanwhile, the test for Class D students ended with Cha Min-jun as the last.
Due to the completely unexpected results, Class D students, including Kang Jun-pyo, could not accept this situation.
“Nonsense. “That guy is number one.”
“What kind of Xenics ring is this for a guy who can’t even see properly? “I don’t understand this.”
“It’s clear that he drank the elixir without our knowledge. I clearly saw you going to the bathroom separately earlier with my own two eyes. “I heard you must have done something before class.”
“For a guy like that to take the ring is a disgrace to our D class!”
Kang Jun-pyo was also like that.
Moreover, what if it were a different test?
Archery is the skill you are most confident in.
It was impossible for him to lose to Cha Min-jun, who he always thought was an insignificant hunter.
‘That’s right, there’s no way a guy like that will suddenly become good at shooting a bow overnight! There must be something wrong with you!’
Due to everyone’s suspicions, Professor Park also observed Cha Min-jun closely.
Among the Hunter’s numerous abilities.
Of course, he suspected that he had drank a ‘mysterious elixir’ that specifically enhanced one area, but Professor Park felt there was no such feeling at all.
‘No, it’s definitely not the power of the elixir. However, it would not have been possible to gather all the magical energy and shoot it. This is pure skill. ‘This is all I have!’
Professor Park was confident.
There was no way he, who had taught countless trainees, would not be able to distinguish to this degree.
Rather, it was Cha Min-jun who showed more skill than Kang Jun-pyo, who came from an archer family.
No matter what anyone said, this part could not be denied.
Professor Park immediately corrected the chaotic atmosphere.
“How can classmates slander and frame each other like this? Elixir? Cha Min-jun proved himself solely with his own skills. If you had used a trick like the elixir, I would have noticed a long time ago. Isn’t that right, Cha Min-jun?”
Minjun nodded when Professor Park looked at him.
“I don’t do such crazy things. At least in front of this bow.”
The students of Class D were taken aback by Minjun’s remarks.
Kang Jun-pyo also seemed to have lost his temper for a moment and shouted.
“Nonsense! I can’t believe I lost my ring to that guy! It can’t happen! “There must be something to hide.”
When Kang Jun-pyo strongly denied it, Cha Min-jun approached him.
“Hey, there. “But you still speak clearly, right?”
“what? “What do you think you know?”
“What do you know? Really tell me? Why did you lose to me? Listen carefully. “This is not something you would normally tell even if you were paid for it.”
“Yuse said he got a few shots in the face.”
Min-jun suppressed his resentment and clearly explained Kang Jun-pyo’s shortcomings one by one.
“Listen carefully. The two shots you missed earlier are tilted to zero with the bow! Everything was disheveled. Moreover, even the stance was irregular. It looks like you’re using an open stance, but your feet are a bit narrow for that. “You should know better, right?”
“… … .”
“no?”
Kang Jun-pyo was speechless.
I didn’t know what to do in a situation where my shortcomings were discovered.
Still, I couldn’t remain silent, so I started making excuses.
“Are you trying to teach me what you are doing and what you know? Do you think you want to make a splash just because you got a few shots right? And I’m still not feeling well!”
“campaign speech? Did you feel anything when you saw the arrow I shot? “You must have felt something, right?”
“… … .”
“And you feel less relaxed? Earlier, he was relaxing in a corner. “What is that?”
“Ugh!”
It was Kang Jun-pyo who was pressured by Cha Min-jun, who always said the right things.
‘what? Is this guy really experienced with a bow? Why hasn’t it been noticed at all so far? It’s not easy to notice right away that my open stance is narrow.’
Kang Jun-pyo is in a tense situation or when he loses concentration.
The gap between your feet tends to narrow suddenly without you even realizing it.
This creates an unstable posture during the drawing process and reduces the sense of stability.
Of course, this part is so minute that it is difficult to notice it right away from a third party’s perspective.
However, Cha Min-jun was different.
He seemed to know his own shortcomings better than anyone else.
For Kang Jun-pyo, Cha Min-jun had no choice but to win the award.
Meanwhile, Professor Park, who was watching the strange war of nerves between the two, intervened.
“Now, both students, calm down. Is there any reason to raise your voice in the sacred training ground? As I said before, Cha Min-jun’s skills are at a level worthy of recognition. It is clear that Junpyo is at the same level as him. So to the two students… … .”
Professor Park looked at Cha Min-jun and Kang Jun-pyo one by one and decided to make a suggestion.
