Early morning she hopped up from bed and ran in the direction of her father's room but he was nowhere, she asked her caretaker, she told that after breakfast he went practice ground to teach his disciple.

"Then help me to breakfast I am heading too," she wore her silk dress and combed well.

Sun was up in the sky, she ran toward practice ring.

She stood there all day long and was keenly observing sword moves, movement and strength which required executing these moves, she was worried little, Sword Art was pure and profound and needed exaggerated energy to grasp it.

She should not learn it as her future hobby, she was not interested in face to face slaughter, if it did, there must be time when my fall comes in front of someone and if happened it would be worse than death treat.

There were many other weapons she could master them.

She was not interested in any profession yet.

She went with Queen to watch harmless Cosplay but she got irritated to have every eye on her because Queen was giving her attention too.

No doubt Queen Treat her with pure heart but that did not means that others were equally behave as within their hearts.

She spent most of her time with her father, he gave her some basic learning of Archer Master and fourth day father and daughter went to purchase crossbow and arrows.

General noticed that his daughter liked Archery most and wanted to learn it but he was clear that King wanted him to send on some venture so it was unknown when would he come back. He draw some shape outlines on turtle skin also a short manual which he himself wrote, whatever he learned in Archery he submitted in that manual and added in the small collection of her book which she was used to read in her leisure time.

They entered in weapon market it was crowded with merchants and buyers, all kinds of weapons were in display in different big shops, from small and short to powerful and long spears.

Halberds, shields, low prices and low quality swords to high quality prepared material swords, thorny hammers then they entered in a big shop of shafts and bows.

Her widened with one look on display, too much variety, long and short bows were in display but they did not catch her attention, general also noticed her lack of interest.

A melon voice interrupted them, "I feel exalted to see General Zhong, General shifted his attention to him, he wanted to ask about Old Tan yet appeared also from another corner and welcomed him, "Old Tan pays respect to General Zhong, today I wonder what brought you here," expressionless General Smiled, "My daughter wished to see some shafts and bows," surprised Old Tan looked at adorable little beside General Zhong.

"Let my son help then, oh I forgot to introduce my son," he felt ashamed on his memory, "This is my son Wen Tan and wishes to become like great General," General nodded his head with slight smile. "Then I will trouble you to find best bow and shaft for my daughter, she is little picky but I suggest some Reflex Bows if you have one," listening to this Old Tan stopped his smile, Reflex Bows were uncommon.


General once encountered wild group of Huns, their bows were unique in many ways so he wanted her daughter to buy a Reflex Bow.

Huns were the most terrible warriors but it was better to call them bandits, they were cruel attackers, their tribes were mysterious hiding their presence and were mostly found in deep forests and non-populous areas but often they barge in different parts of Kingdom and rob people and slaughter them, in some areas they were more influenced than the King.

Reflex Bows were fatal in long distance attacks.

Wen Tan brought them on second floor, small portion of second floor was hosting these rare bows; he picked up on and started relating its characteristics and advantages.

General picked up another and examined, he was satisfied with the quality.

Henan looked at completely different design in fact unique one, its caliber was not more than three feet, string volume was tenfold strong, and its specialty or operation system was complete latest version of Reflex Bows.

There was flight groove instead of arrow rest, grip was dived into stock and fore grip, there was addition of trigger, all in all it was eye catching too, instead of traditional putting's.

Its corresponding arrows were placed beside it.

General could see her interest, he asked this special Reflex Bow.

Wen Tan was little reluctant but still introduced this unique bow as his creation, he displayed his efficiency on a target, not only it was unique in appearance but also excellent in use.

General could understand her intention so he asked for this bow, "Since General is willing to buy this creation I am glad too," its price was twofold than most expensive crossbow of this shop still General paid the sum in gold coins.

She was happy.

They returned to Palace…

King sent his slavey to summon the General.

General came and paid regards, tired King nodded and pointed to sit.

Expression of agony was painted on his face. King looked at concerned man, he immediately stood up and with grave voice started reporting, he was one of the ministers in court.

Minister of defense, "According to present report, south eastern province is under invasion of barbarian Huns, they are the cruelest to civilians, they had slaughtered and robbed half the city and this bloodshed is still on going, inner defense have failed to stop them, these are information which describe the barbarian Huns in which they are trained ways and their power," saying this he presented it to King.

King shuffled through document and his expressions turned ugly.

Defense Minister continued, "Since inner defense had lost to Huns, this matter after much consideration has decided upon to bring under General Zhong command…."
