However, Seiji and Natori had gotten used to following behind her and helping her clean up her messes.

This completely spoiled the already somewhat willful bird.

An irrepressible smile almost overflowed from his dark eyes as he gently took her hand.

"I will be your strongest support."

Just as I once prayed.

Human lifespan is short, so vows should be taken seriously.

There were many athletes wearing archery uniforms waiting in the waiting area.

There were about thirty or forty people, from all grades, with young faces.

They mostly gathered in twos and threes to chat, and many of them were people who knew each other.

The birds arrived very late, almost right on time.

It immediately attracted the attention of most people.

The black-haired girl had an outstanding face, shining like a luminous being.

Especially the silver longbow she carried on her back; its workmanship and materials looked excellent.

This is a message sent to the Asuka family's shikigami, specially delivered by a paper doll shikigami.

It is the bow and arrow that Asuka has been using in recent years.

Most of the participants were beginners who could not make accurate judgments about bows and arrows and could only deduce from their appearance.

However, several archery instructors off the field immediately recognized its value.

"This young girl must have some basic knowledge of archery," the middle-aged man in archery uniform speculated.

"Many of the participants this time have been practicing archery since they were young," another person laughed. "Are two of Coach Saionji's young disciples also participating?"

"Yes. Flowers in a greenhouse cannot withstand wind and rain; children should be given more opportunities to grow."

Saionji, dressed in a dark kimono, had almost silver hair, a kind face, and a calm expression.

"I hope that more outstanding athletes will emerge in the archery world in the future."

"These children are the future of archery."

Unaware of how conspicuous it was, the bird tried its best to hide itself in the corner.

They clearly said they wouldn't participate, but they ended up coming anyway...

Asuka-sama is so embarrassed!

I can't see her, ...—

"Monobe," Nikaido said in a puzzled voice, "what are you doing?"

"Hide yourself," Asuka muttered.

Nikaido: "..."?

Even if you leave a light bulb in a corner, it's still very eye-catching!

Unaware that she had been compared to a light bulb, Asuka asked, "Nikaido, do you think I hid it well?"

Nikaido: "..." What a great idea.

Nikaido, not wanting to continue this strange topic, selectively ignored the issue of the small light bulb.

He abruptly changed the subject, saying, "I thought you weren't going to participate in the competition."

Asuka didn't really need Nikaido's answer, after all, she was truly confident in herself.

What? Asuka-sama can't possibly do something badly if she wants to! ( ̄^ ̄)

She sighed upon hearing the boy's question.

"This is the adult's predicament. Nikaido, you are still young and certainly won't understand."

Nikaido: "You're speaking Japanese? I don't understand."

Asuka retorted confidently, "I already said Nikaido is still young, it's normal that he doesn't understand."

Nonsense! It's clearly because Mononobe was talking nonsense the whole time!!

Nikaido regretted his initial actions, realizing he had even used honorifics to express respect to this child whose mental age was definitely no more than ten.

How could someone be so out of control when archery is so powerful and the sound of the bowstring is so awe-inspiring!

Of course, it's because ability and personality aren't related!

"No holding back during the match, we'll meet in the finals." Nikaido snorted.

Even the bird didn't know how that gloomy little kid had suddenly transformed into such a proud and arrogant person.

However, having an outgoing personality is always a good thing.

"Don't worry, I'll definitely do it. Just don't let Nikaido get eliminated."

Indeed, compared to Mononobe, he is more of a concern.

Furthermore, Coach Saionji's two students also participated in this competition...

Fragments of memories flashed through my mind.

Nikaido's hands were clenched tightly.

At that moment, a very light force brushed across the back of his hand.
