CHARLOTTE: The Injured White Peacock
The Disappearance of The Archer

Nightfall.

Only a few animals were heard whistling to accompany his lonely night. They make it as a natural melody that is so harmonious. Dark clouds with a splash of twinkling stars add their own beauty. The moon also does not want to lose, its bright rays provide hope for peace for all creatures of Wolestria.

The cold air was blowing, but it was very cold. Several small animals approached the tents set up by Ellena's party or team. They are currently cooking a lot of food.

Night squirrels, butterflies, snakes, even other forest dwellers sit waiting with this impromptu ‘party’. In fact, actually Ellena did not intend to invite them, but the fish in the river were really abundant.

Not only that, the forest on this nameless hill is indeed rarely visited by ordinary races because Charlotte has set a trap that can only be conquered by races with high Blessings.

The fragrant smell of food is so delicious, able to make the tongue drool. I'm already impatient. However, Varl still continued to stir the jug with the soup whose smoke had already billowed, carrying the smell of its own delicacy.

Ah, the jug was already in Varl's bag of wanderers who had been modified with magic. Although his magic bag seemed small, but able to fill thousands of objects ranging from small to large. That's fantastic!

“Quick, Varl! How much longer do we have to wait?” leonie asked impatiently, next to her the wild squirrels, the slithering snakes, Momo the little Quinkana, and the other animals looked on with hungry eyes. Their tongues had also been dripping with saliva. Really, it was very tempting to smell the food made by Varl.

“Iya, Uncle! Hurry up a little, Navi wants to eat too!” Yuya goes to protest over Varl's cooking for too long. He stroked Navi the hairy tarantula.

Seeing that, Varl shuddered in horror. He tries as soon as possible to finish his work so that Yuya does not do things that make him unable to sleep later tonight. Navi's thin fur gave her goosebumps, she could not imagine if her skin came into contact with the super-large tarantula.

Several times Varl scooped up the soup, tasting it. If it is less salty, it will add the essence of the sea according to which in the world Ellena named salt. If it is less sweet, it will spice up again with the essence of fruit extracts such as sugar cane and such.

“Ya, yes. It's done,” Varl said after his cooking felt right. He poured them one by one into a small bowl.

Fish soup with vegetables is done! Uh, so tempting that it makes the tongue sway fun.

“Yeay, we finally eat!”

“Happy meal!”

Everything is attacking, no exception. Seeing that, Varl's nose seemed to extend. He grinned with satisfaction, proud.

On the other hand, a pair of jealous eyes were staring at him. He still held his small bowl while putting envy in his heart. Who else if not Steven. Seeing him harboring resentment, Varl glanced at Steven.

“Hehehe, how? I'm cool, aren't I?” Varl swiped the end of his nose, proud. He showed off how great he was compared to Steven who only played the spoiled crown prince.

“Ya, yes. I admit you're great.” Steven replied with a sigh. Then, he stepped forward to get the soup because this was his turn.

Everyone ate voraciously until their stomachs were slightly bulging. Several times the sound of belching was heard escaping. Ah, what a tiring day and also a very filling meal. It's a pleasure to be grateful for.

As the night progressed, everyone returned to their tents. While the animals that became ‘tamu’ have returned to their habitat as well.

Currently, Ellena was lying down with Ruby and Yuya inside the tent. However, when Ellena was about to close her eyes to rest herself, she heard someone coming out of the tent approaching the bonfire that was still burning because of the Blessing of Ruby The Fire.

His hands clenched tightly. Even so, Ellena did not see how Hanae's current expression was because the girl turned her back on Ellena's tent.

Then, Hanae walked out of nowhere. Very suspicious. Without a doubt, the always curious Ellena followed Hanae unconsciously. His body was moving on its own and he could not just reject it.

The atmosphere around the forest was indeed quiet and dark, especially if it was away from the campfire. The eyes cannot see for a moment. However, Ellena continued to tail, following where Hanae went using her instincts.

The girl with a headband decorated with bird feathers did come out not far from the scope of her friends' tent. So that Ellena can still see the movements of Hanae whose hands begin to bring up the mainstay large arrow after the girl The Archer cast a spell.

Then, Hanae also summoned her bow with her magic rapals. A large arrow with wood carvings and eagle feather decoration into a typical arrow belonging to Hanae. The girl pointed her bow at a large tree at the end of there which was about 1 kilometer away.

Whahuh?

1 kilometer?

Ellena's dumbfounded. He also realized that his eyes could penetrate and knew which target Hanae was aiming for. “Why are my eyes suddenly fixed on that huge tree a kilometer away?! Have my eyes improved?!” inner Ellena. He was not sure of it, but he realized that his eyes were clearer than before!

While Hanae was still aiming. His net narrowed one to focus between the end of his arrow with the target that was far ahead.

Whoa!

The arrow shot out with a bright blue light that enveloped him. It was Hanae's magic. Both of Ellena's eyes were sparkling, this was incredible!

Ellena's smile also slowly expanded, she placed her faith in Hanae who was staring intently at her fast-moving arrow. However, when the magic-clad arrow almost a few meters up to the big tree, he suddenly turned down. Weaken.

“Cih.” Hanae disappointed. He knew that this would happen. Although he had prepared space in his heart for disappointment, but he could not take it for granted. Piqued.

Hanae also looked at the sign of Blessing on the back of her hand with a hateful look. His heart was fierce, he was fed up with the fate that befell him.

“I already know if this is going to happen! But why do you make me such a useless creature?!” shouting Hanae. His voice was so loud, echoing in this dark forest.

He sobbed, but his clear hair could not come out. His heart was dead as his Blessing began to be meaningless. Hanae lost the light of her life. He's pissed.

“I must see Her Majesty the Queen immediately! Or... or I will never live again!” Hanae is sobbing. He was tired of all this. For him, for what life in Wolestria while Blessing who became his life was slowly snatched by the curse magic of the ruler of his land, Sinu.

Because of his hatred he remembered the days of his escape from the iron-handed leader, Hanae intended to throw a Blessing bow that for him was useless. He raised his hand, ready to throw and hoping for the bow to break.

However, Ellena held Hanae's arm. “Stop!”
