Continuation of training 1.127

Flora looked at Viggo sitting next to her on the rock. She ignored her silly brother for a minute, because the boy watching the fight with the Goliath seemed a totally different person from the always friendly Viggo. Even though her brother was a fool, she loved him a lot, and in her heart, there was no sweeter person than him. However, seeing this facet of Viggo displaces it.

-Your bow and arrow- said Viggo.

Flora saw him reach out and she pulled the bow from her shoulder and pulled an arrow from her quiver. She handed them to Viggo, and he took both. Then he removes the metal tip from the arrows and look for one of the monster stones that will fit in size and shape. Once Viggo found the purple stone he tied it to the tip of the arrow. He drove his mana to the tip of his index finger and tried to write on the stone, but his finger was too big. Then he tried to write with the tip of his little finger and succeeded. The first rune he wrote was Sowelu "S" with the force of solar fire. Then he takes another arrow and modify it with the rune Isa "I". Each arrow had at its tip a stone that should have emitted a purple color, but thanks to the manifestation of the runes, one emitted an orange glow and the other emitted a pale celestial glow.

-Take, Flora- Tatsumi said by passing the orange arrow with Sowelu's "S" rune shining inside the stone -you don't stick it to your clothes or any part of your body. Any friction can activate it and unleash the power of the rune-

-Are you sure?- asked Flora with some concern in her expression, but still took the arrow by the lower end and moved the tip as far away as she could. At the same time, she could feel the heat emanating from the tip as if it were the fire of a large bonfire.

-Yes, I'm sure if you keep the tip away from all contact, everything will be fine-

-Damn, Viggo- shout Flora super nervous and point to Viggo with the arrow -if I came to die burned, I will come in the form of a ghost and I will pull you by the feet every night-

Viggo smiled and nodded. He took the arrow with Isa's rune "I" and took the bow with his other hand. Then he jumped off the big rock and made his way to where the Goliath was finishing off the adventurers. Most likely, everyone is dead right now, Viggo thought. At the same time, Flora followed Viggo closely and tried to keep the arrow as far away from her body.

Viggo kept moving forward and noticed that the Goliath stopped. Then the huge monster more than twenty meters high and humanoid figure, turned his face to look at him. Viggo frowned and saw the Goliath look up at the sky and let out a beastly roar that reverberated throughout the cave. After that, the Goliath ran producing tremors and the fall of sediment from the roof.

Flora gave a little scream, but Viggo gave her a single look and she was instantly silent. Then Viggo prepares the arrow in the bow and waits for the Goliath to reach the distance of three hundred meters. Once the Goliath arrived taking great strides at the distance of one thousand meters, Viggo tightened the bowstring and the wood creaked. However, Viggo kept the rope taut and counted back the number of meters remaining for the Goliath to be within reach.

-Five hundred...- Viggo murmured in a low voice without ever taking his gaze away from the Goliath -four hundred, three hundred and fifty, three hundred- Viggo released the rope, and the arrow flew. At the same time, the Goliath was running with all his strength and saw a small pale celestial glow. However, it was too late, and he only reacted once the arrow hit his left eye. The Goliath covered his face and let out a beastly roar that reverberated all over the floor.

At the same time, Viggo stretched out his hand to Flora, but she, who was to pass the arrow to him, froze.

-Flora- said Viggo in a firm voice -Flora, the arrow-

-What arrow?- asked Flora dead of fright

-The arrow in your hand- replied Viggo.

Flora looked at the arrow and noticed that she had it very close to her body. So, she let go of her as she screamed and Viggo caught up in the air. Viggo didn't bother at how clumsy Flora was, he placed the arrow in the bow and looked at the Goliath. The monster had its left eye and part of its face frozen, in a state of necrosis and hardened, very different from the living skin of the rest of the face. Viggo showed a beastly smile and ran to meet the Goliath.

-Viggo, stupid Where are you going?- shout Flora

However, Viggo only kept running at a high speed while the Goliath noticed him with his right eye that he still saw. Viggo advanced until he reached the feet of the Goliath, and the monster raised his right foot and stomped. Viggo jumped to the left and at the same time, tightened the bowstring and shot. The arrow emitting an orange color flew up to the face and hit just above the eye that was frozen. The reaction was not long in coming and at the moment of hitting, half of the Goliath's head exploded in parts as if they were fragments of stone.

Within a few seconds, the Goliath lost his mobility and Viggo who was only about ten meters away from the monster, saw it fall as if it were a mountain. The impact produced a huge dust and the figure of Viggo was lost sight of.

For her part, Flora shouted Viggo's name thinking he had been crushed by the Goliath and ran in his direction. Once he approached the Goliath, he noticed that the body turned into huge specks of bright dust and gradually faded away. At the same time, Flora noticed Viggo standing on the side of his body and ran until he reached him and threw himself on his back.

-Damn you, Damn you, Damn you- said Flora in the midst of her annoyance -you almost killed me from fright, stupid Viggo, as always giving trouble-

Viggo smiled upon hearing her and let go of the bow. Then he takes her by the arms and lower her back. Viggo looked at Flora with a sly smile, and she blushed with embarrassment.

-I just thought that something had happened to my stupid brother, it's not like I started crying if something would happen to you- Flora replied as if she were a spoiled child as she folded her arms and looked away.

Viggo just smiled and walked to where the huge Goliath stone was.

-Hey, tell me, do I work my idea? What do you think, does it have its usefulness?- asked Flora while following him

-Yes, your imagination is terrifying- replied Viggo -but it has a small drawback, you must learn to use runes and find a way in which you do not kill yourself just because of an oversight. You saw, each arrow had devastating strength. If you hit Isa's arrow somewhere on your body, that whole area will be dead. On the other hand, with the arrow of Sowelu you can be completely incinerated-

-Do you have any ideas to solve that?-

-Not now, but you could ask Dad, he knows a lot of things-

Viggo arrived in front of the great stone of the Goliath, which emitted a crystalline glow of purple color. Viggo ran his hand across the surface and felt crystal-like softness. Then he looked at Flora and said -Now we must get to this-

-Well, you killed him, you carry it- Flora said.

-Sure? Don't want part of the reward?-

Flora frowned and Viggo burst into laughter. Viggo came up to Flora and pulled her cheek -you don't have to get angry; I'll take it- he said.

Flora slapped his hand and said in a bossy tone -you better, silly Viggo-

In that way, Viggo carried the great stone of the Goliath attracting the attention in the path of several adventurers. Even from the opportunists who wanted to attack him. However, after the fight with Ottar, Viggo had made a name for himself and now everyone called him Red, because of the color of the aura that enveloped him when he fought-

Already in the afternoon, Viggo and Flora passed through the guild of adventurers, where Aina helped them to perform the conversion of the huge magic stone. The happiest was Flora, who took a large sum just for having accompanied her brother. She had the bad idea to tell Aina, who scolded her and told her she was an opportunist. However, Viggo defended Flora and told Aina that she had given him the idea of how to beat the Goliath with two crushes. Aina denied hearing such madness, but believed them, after all, they were Kain's children.

Once Viggo and Flora left the guild, they walked towards Kain's house. All the way, Flora was all smiles as she hugged a huge sack full of valis.

-Since when did my little sister become a materialistic woman? asked Viggo.

-I'm not a materialist- Flora replied without losing her smile -it's just that I like it when things go well. Imagine, only one idea produced these benefits, you can imagine if I advise more adventurers-

-Sorry to be pessimistic, but I recommend that you do not associate with other adventurers. I am your brother and that is why I am right with you, but you cannot expect the same from the rest of the adventurers-

-Achilles would not be like that-

-Sure, he doesn't, but I remind you that you are only a level four, and it is very limited with whom you can associate on equal terms-

-Okay, I'll think of a way to do something that will bring benefits to Tatsu and me-

-Me don't?- asks Viggo.

Flora lost her smile and put on a sad look -Viggo is going to continue his training, right?-

Viggo grimaced and said -yes, I will continue my training and one day I will be so strong that I can beat Dad-

-Viggo dreams like fools- said Flora in a bad mood.

-I know it seems stupid right now, but it's my goal-

-Not even between Achilles, Odysseus and Jason could overcome Dad- Flora shouted closing her eyes and bending her face -Viggo should stay and live in Orario- she under her voice and said calmer -Viggo should be happy and stay with us, with his family and brothers instead of going through hardships-

-Impossible- Viggo said.

Flora opened her eyes in a state of disbelief, raised her face, and saw Viggo smile.

-I am Viggo, someone whose name is "War". Someday I will be more powerful than my father and I will be as powerful as the sun-

Flora pouted and started crying thinking that the future would be a lonely place without her siblings. At the same time, Viggo made a lonely smile, walked over, put his sack of valis on the ground, and hugged Flora next to the sack she was carrying. Flora kept crying and Viggo kept hugging her to give her comfort.
