Chapter 349: Intercontinental Archery Championship finals part-6

"Ambidextrous?" Hyori's face darkened as soon as Sakura revealed her trump card.

This was the third time Hyori was battling Sakura in the finals and she also had watched her past videos too but never had she found Sakura using her left hand in a competition.

So, when she saw Sakura holding up the bow in her right hand, Hyori thought her opponent might have trained to shoot the arrows with the left hand just like herself.

However, to her shock, Sakura had not only displayed that she can shoot extremely well with her left hand but also defeated her in the same manner.

Hyori felt like everything about her having a chance to win the game is just an illusion. If that's the case, why hasn't Sakura finished off earlier? When such a question popped up in her mind, she remembered the conversation she had with Sakura just before the 2nd round started.

Realization dawned upon her. 

Hyori finally realized that her opponent was just toying with her because she wants to have fun. 

At that moment, her spirit was completely broken. For the remaining shots, she didn't even try it seriously and just casually shot the arrows.

After that, there are no more surprises to either the audience or the judges. The match became completely one-sided in Sakura's favor.

In the end, Sakura won the tie break with 200 to 50 thereby, winning the Championship.

"It's been a fun match, Hyori. You are really the best Archer I've ever battled in my age group." Sakura kept a smile on her face while being oblivious to Hyori's feelings. She didn't realize her little act brought a huge change to her opponent.

Hyori took the hand and shake for a few seconds before leaving for the waiting room. 

"After a neck-on-neck battle, the finals went into a tie break and Fujimori Sakura has claimed the winning trophy for the third time in a row with two of them from the high school division." As Commentator Yamamura screamed at the top of his lungs, the supporters of Hyori couldn't help but let out a deep sigh.

Even Wil and his family were the same. Wil didn't expect her opponent is far better than her. In his eyes, even 'One' is no match for this petite girl from the Ares University.

Of course, being the strongest in the virtual world of War Online, he knew that Sakura won't be a match for him inside the game. However, when imagining himself going against her in real life, Wil felt like he will be completely crushed.

It developed a sense of competitiveness inside of him. Wil decided to take Archery classes seriously even outside the game.

At the same time, there's one more person who was deeply affected by this match. His sister, Mia. Unlike the experts, she wasn't able to see the depth of Archery in this match. Instead, she was amazed while watching the finals.

"Mom, I want to become a Pro Archer." While Scarlet was consoling Hyori's mother, Mia suddenly announced her goal. As everyone around was taken aback by her words and looked at her, she looked at Scarlet and asked, "Can I start learning Archery once we get back?"

"Okay, now, you want to become a Pro Archer Great" Scarlet casually commented, not taking her statement seriously.

"This time, I'm serious, Mom." Mia's face darkened as she saw Scarlet doesn't seem enthusiastic about her decision. She knew why.

Continuing to look at her phone, Scarlet said, "Really? I still remember, when you were 8, you said you will become a pilot. Then, a year later, on your 9th birthday, you said you will become a police officer.

Then, you suddenly changed your dream to architect, then, astronaut. Just a few days ago, you said you want to become an idol and you also mentioned you were serious about it. Can't believe I fell for it and waste money on your dancing classes. No more dancing classes from now onwards. You will come straight home after the school timings are over."

"Mom" Mia screamed, attracting the attention of the nearby audience who were waiting for the presentation ceremony.

"Ummpf" Rey, who sat between Scarlet and Mia, immediately, closed her mouth before the situation escalates, "Mia, everyone is staring at us. We can talk it out at home. Not here" He slowly whispered to her.

At first, Wil wanted to intervene by supporting Mia but as Rey quickly calmed the situation, Wil didn't get the chance to do that and stayed silent.

Meanwhile, Scarlet doesn't seem like she's in a mood to care about Mia's tantrum. Her focus is on the replay of the final match. The more she looks at it, the more she found it interesting, not Sakura but Hyori.

Looking at her, Scarlet couldn't help but reminisce about her past. She was at the same age when she married Philip and gave birth to Wil.

She said to her daughter that she had grew up in a middle class family but in reality, in search for freedom, she and her sister escaped from a certain organization at 16.

After that, Andrea took the route of joining Vulture while Scarlet took the route of normal life filled with freedom. Yet, fate decided to let her fell in love with the Mafia Lord of all the people in the world.

Suddenly, she felt the desire to mentor Hyori, but then, she quickly threw the thoughts away, not wanting to get back to being the person she was, twenty-two years ago.

Soon, the presentation ceremony started featuring the current world champion Kim Junho presenting the medals to the winners, runner-ups, and third place holders.

Along with the gold medal, Sakura also received 1 million Yuan prize money as well as a golden trophy. As for Hyori and the other runner up from the high school division, each of them received a silver medal and a hundred thousand Yuan prize money.

The next day afternoon, a private jet landed in Tristan Airport of the Ares city.

A group of five exited the airport and aboard the vehicles filled with guards. As the four vehicles hit the roads, Wil looked outside through the window glass and let out a sigh, "Nothing's going according to my plan... I'm out of luck these days"
