Ero Meter - Chapter 221 Risk
Vieva looked around after opening her eyes. She could see an open space with a lot of stars.
She was currently flying in front of a big moon.
“Hello.”
Vieva looked at the voice source and it was a small girl in front of her.
“I am Twinkle. What’s your name?” Twinkle asked as she looked at Vieva.
“Vieva.” Vieva faced her.
“Sorry, I wasn’t able to meet you in the first round. But I can see that you have the compass already.” Twinkle blinked her eyes.
“How can I help you?” Vieva got straight to the point.
Twinkle smiled. “I want to ask you a question.”
“What question?” Vieva furrowed her brows.
Twinkle’s smile widened at her words. “How many fingers do I have?”
Vieva looked at her with a confused expression.
“Ten?” She said.
“Hahaha…” Twinkle laughed. “You are wrong.”
“So?”
Twinkle chuckled. “Now die.” She said and suddenly appeared in front of Vieva with a punch flying towards her mouth.
Vieva’s eyes widened at her attack. “What are you doing?” She asked as she disappeared from her original place and appeared above her.
Twinkle looked above and an annoyed expression appeared on her face.
“Why are you guys not dying easily these days!” She also flew up, faster than before and finally, her punch landed on Vieva’s stomach.
Veiva’s eyes widened as the punch landed on her stomach.
“She is strong! Agh…” Vieva’s body flew backwards and then disappeared in mist in the end.
Twinkle frowned when she saw Vieva gone.
“Where did she disappear? Is she dead?” As she looked around she suddenly felt a hand behind her and before she could turn around a red ray moved out of Vieva’s hand and threw Twinkle away.
Twinkle moved far in the distance from the impact and then stabilized her body as blood fell from her mouth.
‘Why is everyone so strong this time?’ Twinkle thought and her eyes turned red.
“I will kill you and collect your finger!” She yelled and moved with a furious speed.
However, before Twinkle could reach her, Vieva, she closed her hand and then a blue transparent box covered Twinkle from all sides.
Twinkle’s eyes widened when she saw blue walls around her and then her eyes landed on Vieva.
Blood was flowing out of her nose. “I can’t kill you right now but once I get the ring, I will come back,” Vieva said.
Twinkle’s eyes widened at her words and she punched the blue box, however, she couldn’t even create a scratch on it.
Vieva locked her from on all sides.
After a few seconds of bewilderment, Twinkle suddenly laughed. “You will never be able to get to Ring of Power without killing me.” She said and a disdainful expression appeared on her face.
She then punched the blue wall again. “I can see that you are already weak, once I break out of this box, killing you would be easy.” Twinkle chuckled again.
Vieva looked at her and then looked around, she could only see infinite space around her.
She took in a deep breath and spat out some blood. ‘Just forming the lock-up box made me so weak, there is no way I can kill her.’ A worried expression appeared on her face.
‘I wish Jack was here…’ Suddenly a thought entered her mind and she remembered his words.
‘Don’t take any risks in there.’
‘But Ring of Power is extremely important for me! I have to take a risk.’ Vieva clenched her teeth and suddenly broke one of her hair.
Twinkle, who was continuously hitting the box stopped and looked at Vieva with her brows furrowed.
“What are you doing?” she asked.
“I am gonna kill you,” Vieva said with her eyes bloodshot.
Her red hair started glowing, creating a red glow in the whole area.
“This feeling… Am I gonna die?” Twinkle thought as she felt her heart pounding at a rapid pace.
After a few seconds, however, a smile formed on her face. “At least I am not dying of old age… Hehe…” she laughed at her fate.
“Agh…” The red hair moved through the blue box and circled around Twinkle’s neck.
‘I couldn’t breathe!’ Twinkle struggled, however before she could do anything the hair started tightening even more and blood started flowing out of her neck.
…..
“Yes, I will take your test.” Jack nodded at the old man.
He has asked him the questions, and according to the old man, if he passed the next test then the old man would give him the ring of power.
And if he fails then the old man will kill him.
“Here is your next test.” The old man smiled and swiped his hand and suddenly both of them were transported to an empty land.
“There will be ten targets, if you shoot them all, then I will give you the Ring.” The old man said.
Jack stayed silent and nodded.
“Well, here is your first target.” The old man swiped his hand again and about five hundred meters away from them a target circle appeared.
“You will have to shoot at the bull’s eye.” The old man said and a smile formed on his face.
Jack looked at the Target circle and a smile formed on his face. This was his forte.
Pointing his bow at the circle, he imagined the bull’s eye and looked for the green panel.
After about a minute of searching for the green panel, a frown appeared on Jack’s face.
‘I can’t see the green panel no matter how much I move the bow.’ He thought and a worried expression appeared on his face.
The old man looked at him and his smile widened. “What happened young man, this is the easiest target out of ten.” He said and laughed.
Jack took in a deep breath and moved his bow down. “I need some time.”
“Hahaha… You can take as much time as you want.” The old man said and stepped back.
Jack turned silent and moved his bow up again and started searching for the green panel, this time he widened his range of search.
He even moved his bow ninety degrees from the target, however, he still couldn’t find the green panel.
“You can give up if you want.” The old man intervened.
Jack decided to not reply to him and kept looking and then he turned around. He pointed the bow in the opposite direction of the target circle.
The old man looked at him and chuckled. ‘This young boy is not so simple.’
As Jack was looking for the green circle, he suddenly found it at one eighty degrees of the target block.
He then pulled the bowstring and an arrow appeared in his bow.
“What are you doing young man? The target is behind you.” The old man said.
Jack still stayed silent and then suddenly released the arrow in the opposite direction.
The old man looked at the arrow and a smile formed on his face.
“Swoosh…”
The arrow moved through the air and suddenly a strong wind gust came and changed the direction of the arrow to the opposite direction.
The arrow then turned and hit the bull’s eyes exactly.
The old man started clapping when he saw the arrow hit the bull’s eye.
“You are the first person to pass this level.” The old man congratulated Jack.
Jack nodded at him.
“Next stage please.” He was in a hurry, he wanted to get to the ring first if possible. As he could gain two hearts from Vieva if he did so.
And there was Hena too, she was powerful and may get to the Ring by brute force.
“Such an impatient young man.” The old man swiped his hand again and fifty more targets appeared around the previous one.
“One of them is the correct one. Find it and hit the bulls…” Before the old man could complete his sentence, Jack already released another arrow and it hit straight into the uppermost target circle.
“Next, please.” Jack looked at the old man with his head tilted.
The old man stood at his place with his mouth slightly open. However, he soon gained his composure back.
“Ok, here is the next one.”
Next, there was nothing, no target block. Jack could see nothing in front of him, neither behind him.
A frown appeared on his face, however, he was still relaxed.
‘Will he be able to pass this one?’ The old man looked at him curiously.
Jack on the other hand moved his bow around in all directions and suddenly shot just above him.
The arrow moved and with a crushing sound a target circle appeared above Jack and the arrow was pierced in the middle of it.
“Nice.” An excited expression appeared on the old man’s face.
One after another the old man gave Jack new targets and Jack passed them all, although some took longer for him to understand he still managed to hit the bull’s eye in the end.
“Here is your final test young man! Be proud, your name will be written in history if you manage to hit this!” The old man yelled. His eyes were bloodshot and his hair was dishevelled.
He never thought that someone would be able to pass all the stages so quickly.
