Isekai Journey Of The Magic Archer

In the quiet jungle, we were now having a tea party under the tree we previously were.

Just cookies weren't enough so, I suggested I would make some tea too and they just naturally agreed.

Well, time passed and now, it was late morning, and the sun had started going towards our heads.

The tea was ready, and we had set up a picnic cloth and god knows why, but I also took out a picnic basket with some sandwiches and fruits.

All things considered, the sight of that steel bare with a ferocious look looking at us was somewhat hilarious.

Her chains that looked pure like night were perfectly restricting the teddy, making him unable to even move an inch.

It hasn't been long since we met and from what I could tell from her carefree attitude, this [Origin skill] had a long duration.

This was my first time meeting someone who had an Origin skill in person.

Master was an exception there, so this was the first one.

Not only was she a witch, but she was also a (tier-3) mage and [Rank-3] knight, something similar to Carla, Alf, and me.

And that wasn't all.

She was a high-rank origin user who had more powerful skills than me that focused on attack, defense, and the like.

I did not know how powerful they were, but, being a fellow origin skill user, I knew her skill was far stronger than mine.

Well, my skills were focused on aspects other than fight but, but if I said so myself, my skills were quite strong.

From the sun's blessing's passive use to Lucy and even white crack.

These skills could be far more useful in an actual fight than a simple attack or defense skill.

Well, I had other things for the attack, deface, and normal stuff.

Being overgeared was one thing, but... seeing her pleased face was also something else.

"Hmmm~! This is heavenly, sir- oh. I still don't know your name. Well, this tea and snacks, they are amazing~!" She exclaimed with a delighted face, and I sighed.

"Celes. Remove this one, please." I said, and Celes cheerfully flew over my head with her blue light.

I returned to my true appearance with Zoe and took a sip from the teacup.

For today's question, I asked Lucy if I can trust Reinelle or not and her answer was something like 'Of course. Why even ask such a question.'

She said I wasted today's question but, well; I knew I can trust this person with my real appearance.

Not that I was expecting this person to fall for my looks. That would be a real no-no.

And I was hot, no doubt about it.

"Holy mother of... you look damn hot, dude. And you too, little Zoe. Your big brother looks freakin spicy. Is that really how you look, though?" she asked with wide eyes that were pleased to see this gorgeous appearance.

Yes, that's right.

Not that I was expecting her to blush like some little girl seeing a prince charming.

That straightforward answer was just the thing I would like in someone.

And she was just surprised, nothing else.

"Yes, lady Reinelle-" I was just starting to say something long, but she cut me down.

"Let's forget the formalities. You trust me enough to show how you look, and you look mind-blowing, so we are now friends, right?

Why this sir, lady shit? Just call me Reinelle." She was serious and even if I knew nothing about her, I really wanted to be with her.

And I also trusted Lucy so, things would be ok, I believe.

"Ok, Reinelle. I think we can be friends. And, yes, my name is Axion. As-" Once again, I wanted to say something long, but she cut me off and shouted in a voice from some time ago that pierced ears.

"Wait!? Axion? Like the Axion Heliox Kromet?" she grabbed my hand after putting down her tea and I flinched at this sudden greeting.

The weird thing about this was, that she knew my name.

"How... do you know me?" I asked, bewildered by her sudden actions and that hand that felt strangely comfortable.

An unbelieving smirk was painted on her face and she exclaimed once again, "Dude!!!"

She was a loud one, if anything and her strangely powerful voice was too loud.

"Axion dude! You are practically a hero in new children's books!

Everyone has read about your heroic act of saving your family, and I even visited countess Heliox a 'few' times.

Even master Zahavi and grandpa praise you for some reason.

They say you were training in some faraway place and will return soon, but I never thought I would meet a famous person like you like this~!" She was genuinely happy right now and from the looks of it, she had met my family.

At least she had met my mom and grandfather and the way she said it, it looked like her grandfather had a close relationship with grandpa.

Who was she and more than that... Me? A hero? Books?

What the hell was she talking about?

"How am I a hero and... how do you even know my family? Not everyone can meet them then. Who are you, Reinelle?"

She calmed down and set back as she looked at me with the previous serious expression.

"Axion or I have the right to call you Eon as a friend. So, Eon.

I don't know where you were or what happened to you or anything like that, but it looks like you were away from your family for a long time now.

I won't ask you anything in that matter, but I should also introduce myself now that I know about you.

I'm Reinelle Atraxia. From the southern duke of Atraxia.

I have no doubt that you are Axion, the one we all know, so let's make it short.

I have met your mom, dad, and grandpa in some official meetings and personally and you might also know about my family, right?" She asked with a radiant smile, and I nodded with surprise-filled eyes.

"You are from duke Atraxia's family?! No wonder your scythe work was so polished.

Who doesn't know the [Reaper of the battlefields]? He is an outstanding person I wanted to meet one day!" now, things were getting interesting.

I never thought I would meet someone from the greatest neutral families of the empire that stood alone and had the strength to protect the things they loved.

The master of scythe, one of the greatest scythemen with unparalleled mastery and someone I had mentioned in my letters a few times, worked with grandpa many times.

They knew each other quite well, and from the looks of her, she also liked my grandpa.

'What a cliché...'

This was like back when I got separated from my parents.

Just how many cliché things were going to happen in this dear life of mine?

Not that I didn't like it.

I liked this meeting of ours.

And though it was sudden, we were able to get some pretty good chat.

We talked about ourselves and family over tea and just chatted among ourselves, almost forgetting the three besides us that had started doing their own stuff.

Leaving us alone, they moved to the side, and I didn't know what these three were doing all of a sudden.

Well, she was a loud one, so I believed they just wanted to get away but, I liked that loud voice too.

I didn't tell her much about me for now. There was no need to.

She was just a friend, not even a true friend I can tell her everything about myself.

But, her eyes can see emotions too and she understood that I was hiding many things and all of them were painful.

She was a smart one that didn't ask unnecessary things that I did not want to tell yet.

Well, I trusted her, so that was enough.

We both talked about more than expected and I even told her some of the information on my screen.

She was shocked to know many things and though I excluded Solnova, just the fact that I was also a dual profession magic archer surprised her beyond belief.

What we were talking about right now was unreal and the chat would just spin from one topic to another.

The tea was about to finish and we had talked about most of the things so, the crucial question stood out now.

"So, why are you here, Reinelle? To find a green-ranked core in this faraway land from the south? I know that's not it."

And suddenly, her bright face fell into a mix of a serious and sad one.

I had seen her happy or angry or cute all this time, but this was the first time she was suddenly being sad.

The three of them also felt it and came back.

I looked at her and she looked at me, deep inside my ruby eyes.

Her bright pink eyes and my bright red eyes met, and she finally spoke after one minute of staring, which made my heart run wild.

"Eon... please help me..."
