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

"Everyone\'s so selfish that I feel like at home!" Jake laughed.

If Law be damned told The Alliance about Jake and his powers, he wouldn\'t have been able to snatch Cerberus, extract his trace, and go through the golden door.

All those exciting events wouldn\'t have happened if Law be damned hadn\'t been selfish!

He smelled himself and decided to take a quick bath.

Alas, his phone suddenly trembled.

Jake picked it up and looked at the screen. He didn\'t recognize the number but had a hunch it was Damien\'s lawyer, who must have been already notified about the deal.

Jake answered the call, confirming his thoughts.

He was careful about his information, but the lawyer operated so professionally that Jake\'s doubts and fears were quickly proved pointless.

Once the man confirmed his identity, he carefully made a contract. Jake received it quickly in his email and read it three times to avoid being scammed.

He consulted his doubts with the lawyer and even typed his problems into the search engine for additional advice.

After an hour, Jake signed the contract and made a deal with Damien Twice.

The layer said over the phone, "My client has already been notified about it. The money should be in your account in five minutes. Mr. Damien has also covered the tax. Please proceed to log into the game to pass my client the legendary item."

"Yes, thank you. It was nice and informative," Jake replied.

The man smiled, "It\'s my pleasure."

Just like the lawyer said, Damien Twice paid for the legendary trace with his personal bank account. Because of the new laws, Jake could see Damien Twice\'s name, bank, address, and more information. Jake didn\'t know whether it was a sign of friendship, but he now knew more about the famous actor than most of his fan girls.

It felt so bizarre.

Those thoughts vanished upon noticing money in his bank account.

It was the first income Jake had received in his life. His lips unconsciously curved up, and he stared at his phone until his excitement took him to his father.

"Wait, I must log in and pass the legendary trace," Jake reminded himself.

Because he\'d been killed, Jake appeared in the sanctuary. He quickly left this annoying place and ran down to meet the siblings by the restaurant.

Their conversation was short and enjoyable. Jake\'s excitement could have been seen, so Damien didn\'t want to take much of Jake\'s time and even spared him from his usual excesses.

Sin was so surprised by it that she remained silent for most of the talk.

It seemed like both siblings had somewhat changed after meeting Jake or were positively influenced by him.

Prince bonded with Cerberus and summoned him.

It was a small, black puppy that appeared like a natural rival for Odin.

Sin snatched him from Prince and nestled him against her chest.

"So cute," she said.

Prince sighed, and so did Jake.

Prince soon returned to his old self, "Don\'t ya dare die a lot to those bastards. Take over this empire, my dark horse! I will return here at some point to show off my glamor!"

"Yeah," Jake nodded, half-joking, half-not.

Sin waved her farewell, "We\'ll meet again, sooner or later."

Those words sounded mysterious and weren\'t uttered without any reason. Jake could see that Sin strongly believed in their reunion. It could be because of the puppy resting in her arms or perhaps because of something entirely different.

That side of her was so confident and charming that Jake decided to take it head-on.

He replied, "I will be much different when we meet for the second time."

"And so we will," Sin smiled.

-

It was rare for Jake to spend only a few minutes in the game.

He logged out and threw his virtual helmet to the side.

He then barged out of his room and went downstairs.

His mom was back home and eagerly watched another episode of a romance series she had recently fallen in love with. Her joy and passion made her seem younger by a few years.

Jake didn\'t really see that effect, though.

He couldn\'t spot his father anywhere in the living room.

"Is he in the garage?" Jake asked.

His mother nodded without peeling her eyes off the TV\'s screen.

Jake sighed. If his father locked himself in the garage, it meant he wouldn\'t come out anytime soon. He also hated when someone disturbed him during his screwing with his cars.

It was inevitable that Jake would not pass the good news to him soon.

His mother surprised him, "Tell him the dinner\'s about to be ready. I\'ll order something real quick for us. He can\'t tell the difference anyway."

"Thanks!" Jake smiled and turned around, running to the garage.

Mrs. Lewandowska turned around and looked at Jake\'s back with a bright smile.

At last, Jake was in the garage.

His father, Edward, was doing something to the car\'s engine.

He noticed Jake and narrowed his eyes at him.

That was when Jake used his mom\'s card to calm his father and conversed casually with him.

"Is there something wrong with the engine?" Jake asked.

Edward shook his head, "I want to make this car howl like my father\'s car."

It was an electronic car that was so silent that it didn\'t excite older generations.

Jake was never into cars or saw those older cars, so he couldn\'t tell what his father wanted to achieve.

Edward harrumphed, "Is there a sound you love in the game?"

"Yeah. The whistle of my arrows is the melody of my soul!" Jake replied.

Edward howled, "That\'s it! Imagine your bow and arrows not producing any whistles! That\'s how this electronic car feels to me!"

Jake took a step back, his face horrified.

Edward snickered.

Jake changed the topic rather immediately. The prospect of not hearing his arrows\' whistles was too frightening for him to even consider.

He could imagine that silent arrows would be deadly, but at least he would do his best to still hear the whistles himself!

He showed Edward his bank account.

"I put 80% of it into savings accounts. The rest I will use to invest into myself in the game," Jake said. "But if there are expenses I can help with, tell me."

Edward stopped tinkering with his car and seriously looked at Jake\'s phone. He couldn\'t believe his son had thought so far and put much of his earnings into savings accounts.

Since he lived at his parents\' expense, Jake didn\'t have to spend his money at all!

It was smart of him to make a savings account for his future!

It was Saku\'s advice, and Jake listened.

Edward smiled, "Have you found a legend in the game?"

"Yep," Jake nodded.

"It\'s highly unlikely for you to find another one so soon," Edward said, his tone hinting to Jake that selling legends or anything close to this grade was difficult and impossible.

Jake understood it, "I didn\'t come here to tell you that I want to drop out of college. I just wanted to share the news with you! I\'m gonna bully Mary later, too."

Edward chuckled, "She won\'t even care about your savings account."

"No, I sold a cute pet to someone else," Jake said.

Edward\'s green eyes shone with mischief, "You naughty son. Do it."

"I will." Jake rubbed his hands.

Edward\'s old face melted, then, "Good job so far, Jake. Your baby steps as an adult make me proud."

"…thanks pop…"
