Isekai Journey Of The Magic Archer

"Well, damn..." I sighed deeply as I set in my room, clueless about where to start for her test.

This was a test, something that had suddenly dropped on my back out of the blue.

I liked the assessments now that I had solved those papers like letters from my family but, things were different with her test.

I didn't know the topic, type, or anything about these tests she might take.

She just said she will test everything I had learned from her like those novels where a grand master takes the ultimate test after vigorous training.

Maybe this was something like that and she will test the things she had taught me.

But... what will she ask?

To create a new magic circle for Solnova with the basics she taught me?

Fight her in a battle?

Something like a written exam or something like that?

Make some medicine from different ingredients?

Cook something?

There were countless things she could ask, and she had given me an entire year, so I had to think about what I lacked and improve in that short time.

A year, 369 days.

It was a small time if I were to get stronger and gain some outstanding knowledge.

And it was still unclear if I will be strong enough to pass through that gate by that.

Our time together was short, but I wasn't ready to part ways with her just yet.

These years, these were some small days that I had left with her... if I was going to never see her again, I had to spend more time with her than training senselessly.

The training was one thing but, there was a complete library to read.

Though it was impossible to read even an entire shelf in that short time, it was possible to read the shelf that I had been reading this whole time.

There were around two thousand books left for me to read on that general section shelf so, I had to at least finish that one.

Though time was short, I had many things I had to start as soon as I can.

Increase the Solnova inside the body now that I had broken the first blockage of my body was first.

My storage limit and output proficiency had increased significantly and if I say the previous output was 3% it has increased to 8% average output.

I can push it to at least 10% in difficult circumstances, but on average, my storage capacity had almost tripped after just the first blockage cleared.

That was some insane growth and I now almost had a (tier-2) Mana core along with my normal (tier-3) one.

This was good, but I had no idea how to do things from now on.

I can make spells using Solnova easily now that I had a deep understanding of the concept and it was easier to use than Mana itself, but I had to train my Mana too.

If I go back, I couldn't carelessly use Solnova and the spells related to it.

That would be dangerous in many aspects.

The spells used with Solnova were more powerful than the normal spells and, in some circumstances, they could rival weaker attack skills.

That was something crazy, and it showed just how powerful of energy it was.

And, I could use the knowledge from my past life and do things that I wanted to do when I reached (tier-4).

Being an easy, more refined, and faster-circulating energy, Solnova was superior to Mana in many aspects.

But its lack of density, slow recovery, and hard use was also its downside.

So, I had to train my both energies if I wanted to pass whatever test she was going to give me.

But that wasn't all either.

I had to experiment and create potions to help in my fight, enchant Asta with the best things I can and increase my stats.

I knew this test would be anything but easy, so I had to prepare to the best of my abilities.

There could be anything in that test.

From killing a beast, or an army of beasts to testing my archery skills.

Shooting targets far away, shooting tens of targets at once, killing moving targets, and such.

Or even a scouting mission.

It can be anything and, knowing her sudden mood swings, I knew it won't be easy at the very least.

Laying on my soft bed, I called my darling partner.

[ "Oh Celes... what should I start with?" ]

I asked her while laying down on my bed and closing my eyes.

It was already night, and we had already finished the dinner she made with extra care.

Celes was outside, playing with the flower lights of night.

Apparently, she had already passed the master's test, and she was now free to do whatever she wanted.

Her test was simple, and I saw that whole thing through her eyes.

She just had to demonstrate her powers and things she had learned until now, and that was enough.

Though, unlike me, she will continue to teach her until we depart. She had taught my Celes all the basics she would need.

And she was happy to play here all by herself.

[[ It will be ok, master. Master's master is ve~ry sweet. She won't do anything weird when it's about the test.

And I know you will do great~! ]]

This cheerful creature... I knew she would get along with the three moms in my family.

[ "I hope so too..." ]

I was still worried, and there was a reason for my great disturbance.

'Her wish...'

There was only one thing I can think of and I didn't want to think what I was thinking.

So, I moved that thought to the bottom of my mind and opened my eyes.

I also had to test my three eyes and see the effects that I hadn't been able to understand when I tested them earlier.

I had many things to do, and there was no time.

"Haaa... oh grandma. You and I both know this wasn't necessary..." I mumbled under my breath and closed my eyes.

This day was tiring, and I had many things to take care of for the great future examination.

That might actually turn out to be the worst-case scenario if 'it' was actually true.

***

Standing on the top of the tower, I looked up at the moon and stars that looked so closed I wanted to grab them.

But they were far away even after getting this close to them.

Sometimes, you think you know everything about something or someone, but something new comes up that would make you question your thinking.

Did I actually know this person?

Is he the same one that I thought I knew everything about?

Or such thought-provoking questions.

I knew everything about Eon, while he was denying it even after knowing what I was.

He was naturally thinking logically or at least trying to think illogically.

But he knew the best people weren't the same as they seem at first glance.

He had now gained the ability to know about something.

Those three different eyes were special and something even I hadn't seen in a long time.

He could see the information about things that are close to impossible to know because of the world's restrictions.

His eyes could reach beyond what he could think.

And those same eyes can fear even the superior being when mastered to the core.

But all those things were his future strengths.

He was my grandson, after all. He would overcome everything as long as he believed and continued forward.

[[ Master fall asleep already~. ]]

"That so? Good..." I nodded and continued looking at the sky.

Celes, his dear partner, was with me, watching the wonders of the night.

But, though she was here, her mind was focused on her master's worries.

She was cute, and he was really lucky to have a such magnificent companion.

"Don't worry, little butterfly. He will do well." I reassured her and patted her small head.

She was rare and very special to not like.

[[ I know. And I know he knows it too. But... it still worries me for no reason.

I don't know why, but I could feel he was worried about something else.

Even though he is happy we will finally go back to our family, he's afraid of something.

Something he really doesn't want to happen. ]]

'Of course, he is worried. And he won't tell this innocent one. Though... he's doing the right thing.'

Looking at her, I smiled warmly.

"It will be fine, Celestine. Don't worry too much." I reassured her and stood up.

This was the top of the tower and there was nothing aside from this magic circle.

We did not use it for teleportation like others in the tower. It was a special thing.

Though, there's no need for it right now.

"Let's go back, Celes. Children should sleep at this hour." I extended my hand with a sigh that she didn't understand and just set on it.

Shaking my head at this little, young butterfly, I teleported into Eon's room.

A beast mark was the most comfortable place for familiar to rest and practicing the whole day like that was definitely tiring for her.

"Good night, Celes. You too, Eon." I greeted them with a kiss on their forehead and she went to her mark after greeting me in a sleepy voice.

He was sleeping peacefully and the gentle, blue moonlight was shining on his face, enhancing his charm.

There will be many young ladies who would fall for him at first glance... but she would be the only perfect one for him.

The future is always uncertain, but I hope things do happen as I hope them to.

No one knew what will happen anyway, so hoping was the only thing a helpless grandma like me could do.
