Supreme Archer: Taking The Game's Weakest Class To The Top

Chapter 296: The Oath Kingdom (10)

Rabbit didn’t lie about his fame.

As they went down the thoroughfare, no one dared to attack them. Several players waved at Rabbit to greet him and even stopped him for a casual talk.

A few also recognized Jake, so conversations could get really prolonged.

Whenever Jake wasn’t bothered by anyone, he looked around. This lawless zone was neither special nor much different from the previous zone he was in. The facilities owned by famous guilds were unblemished, while the other buildings barely held on, struggling to keep up with the grand aura of prestige.

It didn’t mean much so long as the business lasted.

Rabbit said, "We’re close to the tavern where the representative of Ava Rice is. He’s tough, with his first character past level two hundred. He’s not just about leveling up and has a high standing in the guild. The dungeon boss will be yours if we get on his good side!"

"Ava Rice… Is there any other guild operating here?" Jake asked.

Rabbit nodded. "Yeah. Black Shore. They are on good terms, so things here are pretty safe. When it comes to the dungeon boss, they have a deal where they take turns hunting the dungeon boss during the day and night. It’s Ava Rice’s turn to hunt the dungeon boss during the day, so you want to speak with them!"

"I see," Jake nodded.

A moment later, the duo entered the prestigious tavern. It was much different from the one Jake had visited in the other lawless zone, as players here weren’t forced to speak with each other.

Everyone had enough room for themselves.

That said, waitresses zooming around the tables in arresting dresses were the same. It seemed like the beautiful gender would always stand out in gatherings of different people.

"We’re here to see Lee," Rabbit told one of the waitresses, his fame coming in clutch.

In just a few minutes, Jake was taken upstairs to speak with the owner of this tavern. He stepped into a building that looked like a principal’s office, with the difference that there were too many shelves with wine.

Across the door sat Lee, whose nickname was Wine Researcher IX. He wore a black suit with a dark red tie, looking like a thug who had forcefully transformed into a gentleman.

"I didn’t expect to see you so soon back, Rabbit," he said as he leaned into his chair. "And with someone else, too. Have a seat, Archer. Your pets can run around the tavern."

"That’s thoughtful of you. Thanks," Jake told others that they could have much fun here. Only Ender and Medusa refused to leave Jake’s side.

Odin and Wukong took the chance to sightsee around.

"You want to solo a boss, don’t you, Archer?" Wine Researcher asked. He didn’t think Archer would come here for another reason, but whatever it was, he would gladly make a deal with someone this famous.

Jake’s career was budding, but his future seemed great. He shouldn’t have any problems rising to the top.

"Yeah, I just need a single round. It’d be enough to test me," Jake replied.

"Test yourself? What do you know about our boss?" Wine Researcher asked.

"Nothing," Jake genuinely said.

"And you must have come here without an oath, right?" Wine Researcher sneered. "This dungeon is close to The Oath Kingdom’s capital, a starting point. Our boss is only level thirty, so you have a high chance against him despite not having any oath. What can you give us, Archer?"

"What do you want?" Jake asked, causing the man to laugh.

He shook his head, "Ava Rice needs a lot of things… and so do I. But why would I bother myself listing them all to you? Think about what you can offer to us. You want to enter our dungeon. You’ve come here with a request. I’m all ears, nothing less."

"It’s not yours, though," Jake replied without thinking about his words.

Wine Researcher grinned, "I know what you mean. How can mere players claim the dungeon for themselves? Well, we can since you’re here to request a solo match with the boss. If you want to blame someone, blame the game developers or maybe The Oath Kingdom’s royalties for giving us this much freedom."

It was a game.

But it was true that players had too much freedom.

Jake didn’t know what the game developers thought about it, but he started to think that this much freedom was perhaps a mistake they didn’t predict.

He sighed.

A bottle of wine caught his attention.

He smirked. "I can give you a wine you never tasted before, the wine no one but me can give you."

"A wine available only to you?" Wine Researcher asked, intrigued by Jake’s words. "You dare to test me? I have been researching wine for half a year now! I’ve tasted a lot! I even sent people to The South America server! If you think you can trick me because you own a portal, you’re mistaken!"

"Nothing like that," Jake replied with a confident voice. "This wine is so rare that only I know where to get it. Give me a day, and I will come here with a bottle."

"Deal," Wine Researched stood up and shook Jake’s hand.

After that, he left the office.

Rabbit was also interested in Jake’s plan.

"What will you do? You really have such a special wine?"

"Yeah," Jake nodded. "See you tomorrow."

"Fine, see ya," Rabbit nodded. Discover more stories at NovelBin.Côm

When Jake was left with his pets, he walked through the mist toward the Oath Kingdom’s Capital.

On his way there, Ender asked through their mental link, "Wouldn’t you win him over with a spit?"

Jake coughed. "Don’t think like that!"

Ender didn’t know what wrong he had said.

Jake coughed again. "I can’t disclose this much, you know? And we’re speaking this way because of Rabbit, right?"

"Yes."

"I guess he would like to spy on me to find out about the wine… he would win over Wine Researcher IX… still, he can’t know that the wine comes literally from me," Jake said.
