Chapter 347 - Twin Dragon
The green sash training area wasn't too far away from the white sash area. It was located at the back of the academy where there was a small terrace hanging over everything. Compared to all the other areas though it was certainly unique. When the three of them arrived they noticed there had been some significant changes from last time.
It looked almost like a small village had been built behind the academy. It was styled with buildings, fake food, props and townsfolk people moving about being pulled along by some type of mechanism. There was a small platform above attached to the school. It was open allowing you to see over at the model town. Currently, nearly all of the green sash students were stationed above and looking down and Martha could be seen in there as well. While a single student was at the starting point of the model town.
Not wanting to disturb them, when Ray and the others entered, they didn't stay anything and silently watched behind the other students.
"This is the green sash area?" Flynn thought. "Why the hell do the black sash get a rundown crummy old mansion?"
It was clear that money had been spent on some areas while not and others and Ray couldn't but think the reason had to do with Kyle and he was right.
Ever since Ray had left, Kyle had been bugging Sylvia about Ray, asking her when she was going to confess to him. It got on her nerves and eventually hit a boiling point.
But Sylvia was now in a high position, she couldn't just hit him like before, no that would be too light of a punishment for Kyle she thought. So instead when the time came to distribute the City's funds, the black sash got next to nothing.
"Ready!" Martha shouted from above.
The student below, with short blue hair, gave a thumbs up while she held out her bow.
"Go!" Martha shouted.
The fake town's people started to move via the mechanism and so did the blue-haired girl below. She ran through the city and while doing so, randomly, pop up targets would appear. They were in the shape of human while red in colour. The girl quickly drew her bow and fired at each of the targets making sure not to hit any of the others. It was impressive, the targets appeared at random so it wasn't something that you could repeatedly do to try to get a fast time, yet her reaction was almost instant every time a target appeared.
While Flynn watched the girl his face started to go red. "She's amazing."
Van seeing the look on Flynn's face smiled. But then he was quickly saddened, the whole reason these children had to learn to fight in the first place was because they were at war, and they needed to do everything in their power to get rid of the shadow as quick as possible. However, after travelling with Ray he released that the shadow, wasn't the only problem. Even without them, they were still others hoping to attack.
"Time!" Martha shouted.
All the Red targets had been hit and now the girl was panting below.
The students started to clap at her amazing performance.
"I think that was Wendy's best performance."
"I can't even go through the whole thing without hitting a civilian." A boy said.
"Yeah, it's not like the targets are a different colour." A girl replied sarcastically.
"Okay bring out the beast!" Martha shouted.
"What a Beast!" Van said out loud. "Is there really any need to go that far?"
As they heard Van's voice the students turned around and noticed that they had visitors behind them. Ones they didn't recognize apart from Flynn.
"Ray!" Martha said, just as she was about to bow down, Ray stopped her.
"Please there is no need."
Although Ray caught her in time before the others saw her reaction, Flynn noticed that she was about to bow down to him.
"Don't worry," said Martha seeing the worried look on Van's face. He still had nightmares about the attacks that went on in the shadow continent. "You'll see it's not really a beast.
From behind one of the small buildings, a strange-looking small dragon with no wings came out
"Rahhh." A voice from the dragon said.
"The mighty beast has come to get you."
As soon as Van saw what had come out, he was no longer worried. It was clear that it was just two people who were in customer dressed a dragon.
Van and even Ray couldn't help but laugh at the actions the two people who were in the costume were trying to do. Rather than scary, it looked kind of cute.
"You can laugh now," Martha said. "But to this day, not a single student has been able to beat the two underneath the dragon."
As soon as the fake beast came out, Wendy started to run back.
"A good decision," Ray said.
The number one advantage of an archer over everyone else was distance and it was best to keep that advantage.
When Wendy was a good distance away she started to fire the arrows accurately and fast. The fake beast ran forward towards the arrow as if it didn't bother them in the slightest.
"Wait, aren't there two people under that thing?" Van said. "If they want to fight or dodge they would have to move at the exact same time, otherwise the costume would break."
As soon as Ray heard those words, he had a good idea who was underneath the costume.
When the arrow was close enough, the two of them moved at the exact same time completely avoiding the first arrow. At first, Van thought it was luck, but then they continued to do this repeatedly until the fake beast was right next to Wendy.
She dropped her bow quickly and went for her dagger attacking the beast's mouth. But with the two's incredible teamwork, the first one was able to kick the dagger away with his foot and ran off to the side, while the tail of the dragon then ran up and kicked Wendy to the floor again.
Before Wendy could get up to fight, the beast was already looking at her face.
"Ahh, another failure!" the students cried.
Once the test was over the two who were in the dragon customer got undressed and Ray's prediction was right. The two controlling the beast was Badger and Sloth, the redheaded twins.
Martha then walked over to Ray who looked like he was interested in the whole process.
"What you looking at Ray, you want to give it a try yourself?" She asked.
Ray didn't reply immediate but in Flynn's head, he wanted Ray to say yes. So far Ray had outperformed everyone he had ever seen on everything and he couldn't wait to see what Ray would do here as well. By now, you could even say Flynn had become a fan.
