The Lady Gangster’s Mission For The Prince

She went straight out of the palace. “Then I’ll think about what I saw today. Right now I have to try using a bow and arrow. ” She just sighed at the amount she had to learn.

When she was in the armory, She took the bow and arrow. She checked its image first before she started practicing with the bow and arrow.

Meanwhile, in Adira’s country, there were groups of people gathered in a large warehouse. Their looks don’t seem to do well. Two of them are wearing tuxedos that look like the owners of a company, and the people they are talking to are the alleged gangsters.

A man was sitting on an old chair, and there was an old table in front of him. “Are all the gangsters here who want revenge on the woman who was dubbed the queen of the gangster world here?” The one next to him, who was also wearing a tuxedo, nodded.

The man smiled. “I know that all of you have come face to face with the woman that everyone fears because of her speed of movement and her ability,” he said with strength.

The men murmured in front of him. “Maybe it’s time for us to take revenge on her, but not yet. I’ll come back here, and then we’ll attack where she is. ” The men agreed. Others were carrying broad sticks, knives, and smiling faces that seemed to be planning something.

“For now, you can go and prepare yourself because we have a battle to win when I come back here!”

The men stormed out of the warehouse, leaving the two men inside. “Boss, are you sure about what we’re going to do?”Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.

The man called “Boss” grinned. “I’m even more sure now that we have many allies.” His face became serious. “I can’t let someone like her disobey me just because she doesn’t want to do what I want her to do.”

“If she is the one called the Queen of Gangsters, why would you try to fight her?”

“Not me; her fellow gangsters will do it for me.” He laughed softly. It wasn’t long before they left the warehouse.

Meanwhile, Adira was sweating profusely, practicing how to use a bow and arrow, but not even one of them hit the round wood.

“I’m… going to be embarrassed,” she said breathlessly. She took another arrow and tried to bury it, but when she released the arrow, it still didn’t hit the round wood.

She bent down and held her knees. “Focus, Adira. Think that a target is a ruthless person who needs punishment, so you have to teach a lesson with the arrow.” She stood up again and narrowed her eyes, and she raised the bow with the arrow. It only took a few seconds before she opened her eyes, right where the target was. “Because you are one of the ones who raised my eyebrows. You will be my model target.” She grinned and pulled the string.

She closed her left eye and focused on the target. The wind was so strong that the target became even more blurry due to the dust from the sand, but she did not take her right eye off the target.

“1, 2, 3.” Then she let go of the arrow. She didn’t see the result right away because of the thick dust that seemed to be swirling around. The wind lasted for two minutes, and the dust was gradually disappearing. Her lips are slowly rising due to a smile. The arrow hit the white color right on the target. “Finally!  But to be sure, I’ll try again. ” She took another arrow and quickly hit the target, but the white color made her smile when it hit again.

She lifted the bow and looked at it. “If I can learn quickly, maybe the prince will learn to use it too.”

Two weeks passed, and Prince Dylan’s leg was fine. He can also walk straight, so now he needs to practice using the bow and arrow.

Meanwhile, Prince Dylan’s hair was a mess as he left his room because Adira woke him up early. He just brushed his teeth and washed his face, almost putting soap in his eyes in his haste.

He was walking towards the back of the palace. He saw that Adira was ready with a bow and arrow in both hands.

He frowned as he approached her, but she just frowned at him.

“What kind of look is that, dear prince? You must be excited to hold a bow as well as a sword because you’ve been resting for two weeks.” At the same time, she grinned at him.

He was disgusted to look at her. “Who wouldn’t look like this if you woke me up this morning?”

“We’d better start early because I’m sure it’ll be the night before you hit the target with an arrow.”

He bit his lip and tried not to answer. He just approached her and waited to see what she would do. “Hold this bow.” She handed me the bow. “Maybe you can’t let go of this too. It’s easier to hold than the sword. Just make sure you hold it well, otherwise, I’ll make you my target. ” She showed the arrow with a point at the end.

She grabbed both of his arms and faced him with a wooden target circle with different colors, but the one he had to hit was the white one in the middle. She also raised his hand that was holding the bow and adjusted the proper grip on it, even placing the arrow in the middle of the bow while he was holding it.

“Remember, you have to strengthen your hand. It can’t be too tight, and it can’t be too loose either. That’s right, calm your body down. ” She went behind him. “Pull the arrow with the string near your face.” He immediately obeyed what she ordered. “Take a good shot at the target. Remember, the arrow must be buried in white color. Otherwise, you will do it again and again until you have not one arrow buried in the white color. ”

He closed one of his eyes, and only one was open. He was staring at the white circle he needed to hit. “When I count to three, release the string with the arrow. 1, 2, 3-Go. ”

He let go of the arrow and looked to see what color the arrow went into, but he couldn’t see anything. “Where’s the arrow, young lady? Why isn’t it on target?” She sighed and pointed with her snout where the arrow was. He turned to where her snout was pointing and winced because that’s where the arrow hit.

“You’re good at it, Bullseye, just in the sand.” The arrow is buried in the sand, which is also close to them.

He shyly looked at her while smiling slightly, but she just looked at him seriously. “Take another arrow and try to focus on the target again.” He followed immediately and focused again on the target.

Time passed, but Prince Dylan didn’t hit the target. His right hand was almost injured from pulling the string and arrow.

“Can we stop now? It’s hard to hold the arrow because of the small wounds on my hand.”

Adira folded her arms while looking at Prince Dylan’s right hand.

She sighed and took off the gloves on her right hand. “Put it on. You only have to hit one, and we’ll stop for this day.” Adira threw the gloves at Prince Dylan.

He frowned as he grabbed the glove that Adira threw. His gaze shifted to her right hand, and he noticed three black dots on the top of her hand. She noticed that he was looking at her hand, so she suddenly raised her eyebrows again. “Is there a problem, prince? Why are you looking at my hand?”

“What are those three dots on your hand in the shape of a triangle?” She looked at her hand. “It’s called a birthmark. It’s sometimes mistaken for a tattoo because it’s black and the triangle shape seems intentional.” Her eyes narrowed. “Hurry up, my dear prince. You haven’t eaten breakfast yet, so maybe those gloves of mine have some luck so you can land on the target. Maybe it suits you because your hand looks like it’s molded into a candle. After all, your hand is not like a man.”

He put on the gloves, and they fit his fingers but hung slightly on the palm. The important thing is that the fabric is thick, so the wound on his fingers won’t get scratched.

“Please feel the surroundings, prince. It’s quiet; there’s no noise, and the breeze is cool. Look carefully at the target and hold the arrow, the bow, and-” Adira stopped what she was saying and smirked. “Let go!!” She shouted so loudly that Prince Dylan was surprised, and the arrow was released.

Dylan turned to her. “Why did you surprise me? You saw me trying to hit the target to end this day.”

She shook her head. “In battle, you don’t need to focus too much because your attention will only go there, so what happens is that there is a chance that someone will suddenly appear while you have another opponent. The feeling is more important than focusing on something.” She looked at the round wood and secretly smiled. “Look at your target. I’m sure your tiredness will be worth it and you’ll be able to eat a lot.”

He looked at his target with a frown. At first, he just stared, but after a few seconds, his eyes widened. “You see, I scored right in the middle of the round wood!” he said happily.

“Good, dear prince. You can give me back my gloves. Go inside and eat.”

He took off her gloves. She was surprised when he took her right hand and held it tightly. “Thank you, young lady! It’s the first time I’ve done this, so thank you very much.” She blinked a few times and pulled her hand out with the gloves.

“Alright, go inside.”

Dylan was happy to go inside, but when he held her hand, it was as if electricity had flown because she felt the hair on his arm rise. “It’s weird?” She just shook her head and took the ones that Dylan used to put back in the bag.
