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

Jake felt like Wukong was missing something in his tattoo form on the arrow.

He was confident that he knew what Wukong needed.

It was a staff.

Wukong was a name that often cropped up in various games or books.

Jake wasn't unfamiliar with it, either.

He had seen different representations of Wukong in various sources and decided to name his second summon with this name only because he also wanted a powerful monkey as other shows and games had.

Wukong was a unique name for him, too. It was Wukong that had brought Jake to a more appropriate side for him—Misfits—and allowed him to see through the importance of names and the traces' origins.

There was a huge main plot behind those traces and existences that Jake was sure he'd be involved with at some point.

"How much for this beech wood?" Jake asked Viktor.

It was a type of wood that would work well for a staff he had decided to craft for his summon. Of course, Jake could have gone an easy route and bought one, but he wanted to pass some of his tendencies to Wukong.

The baby monkey could already help him with the bloody task of extracting resources from carcasses, so Jake would love to have grown-up Wukong help him with craft! Perhaps there would be a day when two of them would be stuck in the workplace, working on a project.

"What do you need it for?" Viktor asked. Jake had made a bow for himself back on the tutorial island, but his knowledge was so primitive it would be better for him to get an artisan class first.

Jake replied, "I want to make a staff for Wukong."

"A monkey?" Viktor said. "You do you. I can give you a small piece for one gold coin. The old hag raised this beech wood, so you can guess its quality."

Jake fell into a thought, "Maybe I should get something cheaper and simpler."

"If you care about the monkey, get a staff from the shop. Anything you make won't be as good," Viktor shared his two cents with Jake. "You'll learn an artisan subclass down the line."

"I know that," Jake smiled, "But I promised Wukong something from myself, and I want him to get some of my habits. He's so precious, and I want to work with him. So, I'll get something cheaper for now, then make something proper later… maybe both of us would learn how to make a good staff."

That said, Jake wouldn't learn about it hard-way. He would allow the system to assist him way more, and he wouldn't study as much about staves as he had done with the archery. In the future, he'd assist Wukong in any staff creation, while the baby monkey would help him with arrows and bows.

It was a fair plan.

Just like Robert advised him, Jake didn't have time for everything.

He was already an odd player who followed both paths—a warrior and an artisan.

"I'll go to the capital to get my hands on a cheap wood. Anything you want?" Jake asked.

Viktor casually said, "Get me sushi."

"Sushi? There's a sushi in Last Night?" Jake didn't hide his surprise.

Viktor nodded, "It's a player's restaurant. You'll find it in the town easily. Just ask someone for directions."

"Kay. I'll be back soon," Jake put everything into his inventory, took money for sushi from Viktor, and left for a short journey to the capital.

-

'Damn, forty million streams, though,' Jake thought as he made his way to Last Night. 'I must have never heard of her because I'm more into European, Japanese, and Korean music.'

He wasn't a fan of his own language music this much unless someone was really good. He'd rather listen to other languages and feel the vibes without understanding the context. That said, many people from his country, including his friends and family, couldn't understand Jake because they needed to know the meaning of the lyrics.

Even if Jake's surname was of Polish origins, he was the only one in his household who really liked Polish music.

'How much does she make?' Jake thought. 'Must be a lot… she can play whenever she wants, I guess? Hold on, I heard stories of evil managers, so she must have one forcing her to do concerts and stuff. But a singer, huh… so lucky! She's set for life now, isn't she? Get a few estates and investments, then play the game all day and night.

I'm not jealous at all… at all!'

Jake sighed.

He was jealous.

The only reason he wanted her to be on his friend list before finding out her occupation was to keep an eye on her level and progress. If Jake recalled properly, she also had spent much time on the tutorial island.

Her older sister was a guild leader of an influential guild, too.

Which meant Maria's progress should be excellent, if not otherworldly.

Robert also mentioned that he was suspicious about Maria's skills. He told Jake and Mary that Maria could be a wielder of at least an epic class.

'But if she's a celebrity, I must do something not to lose her from my friend list!' Jake came to a sudden understanding. He was overwhelmed by her occupation and kindness, but now that he thought clear-headed, he really wanted not to lose this connection.

At last, he could tease his friends about something!

He could come out to them and say, 'I spent seven months in tutorial and was rewarded with friendship with a celebrity!' or something like that.

His friends had much to say about his style, so he wanted to get back at them.

Nonetheless, there was also something exciting and difficult to explain about having a celebrity on the friend list. Perhaps the thought that countless people would love to be in his shoes because of it was enough to turn that exciting.

Jake smirked.

He would just casually talk with her for now.

If he flopped that, then so be it!

Finally, Jake was in The Warmonger Empire's Capital. He asked about the sushi booth and went there after a kind man passed him directions. It was so nice to have NPCs so supportive.

Jake waited in the queue until he saw the player behind the counter. He was making sushi in person, and every client could see those rolls rolling on the table.

"Welcome to my American Tokyo Booth! I remember my clients' faces, so I can tell you're here for the first time! Ten percent discount, then!" A player with the nickname Sushi God said with a remarkable business smile.

Jake chuckled, "Thanks! I heard your sushi is amazing. Even NPCs ask me to get one for them."

"The road was long and difficult, but it was all worth it, then," Sushi God chuckled. "Sushi God is my second character. When I made sushi myself in one of the dungeons on my first character, I realized the potential of this business and the new flavors this world holds! It's also so lucrative, you know? I could give up on my school because of it!"

"Damn!" Jake clicked his tongue, "How come I am meeting so many amazing people lately?"

"Haha! It's this virtual reality that is amazing! It enables us a lot of fun!" Sushi God sincerely replied.

Jake was compelled to nod. "Yeah."

"My grandpa said that if immersive virtual reality was back in his teens, he would have many girlfriends faster and even married earlier!" Sushi God grinned.

Jake burst out laughing, too, "Did he also say that he'd wear a black robe and wield two swords, getting all those chicks?"

"He did! Haha!"

"Haha!"

When Jake got sushi for himself and Viktor, he packed it into his inventory and went to the auction house to get a cheap wood for himself.

After returning to Viktor's workplace, they ate the meal together and got to work.

-

It was late evening.

Jake had received a code for two tickets and received them.

He was shocked to see that he received their premium.

Each ticket could be sold for even five hundred dollars… Jake speechlessly stared at the screen of his PC.

He then typed Maria's singer alias.

It was Lilith.

"Oh my god…" Jake widened his eyes upon seeing one of her concerts. It wasn't what he had been expecting, as Maria's voice was soothing and calm. Lilith, however, was like the double-personality that took over her when she held a microphone.

She was wild and sang various genres like metal, pop, rock, and more.

She didn't look like an angel but a demoness. Her whole appearance was so different from what Jake had seen in the game world.

Her dance choreography also wasn't innocent, but Jake could see why, as no one nowadays is that innocent.

That said, it wasn't also indecent.

It was like she knew the perfect balance.

Jake listened to her songs and found a liking to them. Anything catchy got to his playlist, basically.

"Oh, since when you listen to Lilith?" Mary asked after encroaching on Jake's private space.

She knew he wasn't in a game world and that she would find him doing something on his PC.

"From today," Jake replied. "I will seriously lock my room next time."

"I love Lilith!" Mary ignored Jake's comment and smiled at him. "Check out her newest ep, Hell's Ride."

"I will definitely check it last," Jake glared at his sister.

Mary sneered, "Sure, miss the best song!"

Jake shrugged and asked, "Have you ever been to her concert?"

"Nope. I missed her concert when she was close to us." Mary replied.

Jake then showed her two premium tickets he had.

All he had to do was print them out…

Mary stood frozen. "H-How?"

"If you want them, it's seven hundred dollars each."

"You dare to scam your sister?!"

"Yeah, of course I dare!" Jake laughed.

"Lower it for me, you bastard! I want to take Robert out for a date!"

"I will think about it."

"Jake! I want a date with Robert! Date! Date!"

"Stop shaking my chair!"

"Date! Date! Date!"

"Alright, five hundred each!"

"Hehe! Deal!"

Mary let Jake go and turned around, skipping toward the door. "I'll be away for a few days~~"

Jake spun on the chair and showed his middle finger at her, "Choke on the banana and slip in the shower!"

"Never!" Mary grinned before shutting down the doors.

A second later, she opened them and stepped in. "How did you get those tickets? It's nothing sus, right?"

"I got them from Lilith herself," Jake replied.

"You could have come up with a better lie," Mary narrowed her eyes and put her hands on her waist.

Jake sighed, "I'm not lying. For real, this time."

"But how?" Mary didn't hide her shock and jealousy.

All of it crumbled after Jake shared the story.

Mary's enthusiasm vanished from her. She stood like a broken doll…

"She's from Raven Guild…" Mary whispered like a heartbroken maiden… "I no longer like Lilith..."

Jake stared at her with his eyebrows up, wearing a mask of disbelief, "What's in the game remains in the game… right?"

"I guess so…" Mary wasn't so much convinced by that.

Jake didn't want to lose such a good client, however, "Oh, come on! Just go and enjoy her music! She's much different in real life than in the game, too! No one will judge you! Maybe she will see you and invite you backstage! You will meet other celebrities that she has on feats!

You will feel like one… wait, aren't you one?"

"Kinda I am… a lot of people know me in the game, and I have a fan club, too… but I don't really interact with them… so… who cares?" Mary replied in a broken tone.

Jake was so pissed at her that he shouted, "Six hundred dollars for each ticket, and finally, go and get an apartment for yourself, you damn celebrity!"

"You dare?!" Mary's mood quickly returned to her old self once Jake threatened her.

And the usual argument began.
