《Brave》Chapter 3: Touch the Sky

——————————🏹——————————
Merid sat up in his bed with excitement and jumped up. He grabbed his bow and his arrows and rushed out of his room. He made his way down the hall and knocked on (Y/n)'s door. The door opened to reveal the young girl standing in the doorway already dressed and ready to go. Merid grabbed her hand and dragged her along with him.
...
The two rushed down the stairs that led to the stables hand in hand, dodging and ducking around the people that were on them. Merid and (Y/n) slid across the railing, and Merid grabbed two apples from a servant passing by and tossed one to (Y/n) who caught it.
Merid suddenly picked (Y/n) up bridle style and stepped off the stairs onto a tall candelabra and let it fall to the ground and he landed on his feet.
Merid carried (Y/n) all the way over to the stables and tossed her onto his horse Angus. Merid climbed on in front of her and grabbed the reigns, and tried not to blush as (Y/n) tightly wrapped her arms around his waist.
"Yah!" He called, and they sped off.
...
🎵🎵
They rode into the forest and Merid locked an arrow into his bow and fired at a target he had hung and hit it dead center.
🎵🎵
Merid fired another arrow and hit another target dead center.
🎵🎵
He hit another target and let out a laugh, and looked back to see if (Y/n) saw him. He glanced at her and saw her looking around the forest with a smile on her face and the wind blowing through her beautiful hair. He just stared at her, admiring how beautiful she was until she turned back to look at him and he faced forward again, blushing.
🎵🎵
Angus leaped over a log and Merid shot an arrow in mid air and hit another target that had already had a bunch of arrows lodged in hit. Once they landed he turned around and fired at a target behind them hitting it perfectly.

"Woo-hoo!" Merid shouted in victory causing (Y/n) to laugh.
...
🎵🎵
Angus was rolling around in the grass while Merid and (Y/n) sat next to each other. Merid was carving an eagle into his bow, when (Y/n) leaned her head to rest on his shoulder. The prince tensed up for a moment, before finishing his carving.
A screech sounded above them, and they both looked up and saw an eagle flying above them. Merid smiled and glanced at (Y/n) who still had her head on his shoulder. He laid his head on top of hers and wrapped his arm around her waist.
...
(Y/n) was attempting to shoot an arrow at a target. She had the bow drawn all the way back and Merid was behind her helping her aim. He put an arm around her waist and his other arm adjusted her direction, while (Y/n) was trying to hide the blush creeping onto her face.
Merid finally stepped back and (Y/n) fired the arrow and it hit the target dead center.
The two cheered and jumped up in the air, and (Y/n) turned around and hugged Merid around the waist. Merid paused in surprise before recovering and picking the girl up off the ground and twirling her around in circles as she laughed.
He set her down on the ground, but still had his arms around her and just stared at her. She stared back at him and smiled. Eventually, (Y/n) stepped out of his hold to go retrieve her arrow, Merid staring after her.
...
🎵🎵
Merid and (Y/n) were attempting to climb the Crone's Tooth. Merid reached the top and looked down at (Y/n) who was still climbing and over looked her ascent hawkishly. The girl slipped for a second and nearly fell, but quickly caught herself and kept going (Not noticing she nearly gave Merid a heart attack).

🎵🎵
Once she got close enough, Merid reaches down and offered his hand, which the girl took and he helped her up the rest of the way.
🎵🎵
The two smiled at each other and turned to look at the waterfall that was near them. They cupped some water into their hands and drank from the falls.
🎵🎵
They then cheered excitedly and their accomplishment, and (Y/n) wrapped her arms around Merid's neck and hugged him. She let out a yelp of surprise when Merid wrapped his arms around her waist and spun her around. The girl let out a laugh once he put her down and the two stared into each other's eyes and smiled.
Merid leaned in a little closer, and (Y/n) did the same, but before they could get any closer they heard Angus whinny down below, startling them and they jumped apart, both a deep shade of crimson.
"W-We should uh, probably head back down..." (Y/n) suggested.
"Uh, right, right. Yeah." Merid agreed.
The two climbed back down and walked back over to Angus. (Y/n) climbed on his back, not noticing the glare that Merid sent the horse for interrupting them. Merid hopped on in front of (Y/n) and snapped the reigns heading back to the castle.
🎵🎵
...
Merid rode Angus back to the castle and parked him in the stable. Merid hopped off and extended his hand to (Y/n) and helped her down.
"My lady." He said teasingly.
"Why thank you, my prince." (Y/n) teased back, knowing he hated it when she called him that.
He sent her a playful glare in return.
"I'm starving. You hungry too Angus?" Merid asked, patting the horse's rear, only to be hit in the face with his tail. "Pfft. Oats it is then."
(Y/n) giggled and Merid nudged her shoulder.
"Come on, we should get to the table. You know your mom hates it when you're late." (Y/n) reminded him.
Merid groaned and rolled his eyes as (Y/n) grabbed his hand and pulled him towards the castle, neither one aware of the disaster that was about to happen.

Jack of All Trades, Master of All
Jack was reincarnated, again. This time, the omnipotent sphere had finally revealed to him that this new world was, in fact, the real one, and his soul had just returned to his body after two years of coma. During that span, the Earth or the magical world No.146, where he was The Grand Sage, was just a simulation experience. Jack inherited the System of Knowledge from his former self in the previous world. But gradually, he realized there were other Returners, holding other powerful Systems that they themself were also granted. The reason? The Omnipotent Sphere refused to give an answer. With the ever-burning desire to find his former friends and companions at World No.146 after their souls too were returned to this world, Jack began his journey. Ahead of him, five hundred years old as he technically was, there might be some surprises he still wasn’t prepared for. This is an original translated work. I’ve always wanted to challenge my writing skill and post on Royalroad a few times, but, as it turned out, I realized my own English capability still limited me. Therefore, I am currently working with a team of three, hence the name Triopals, consisting of me, the author, a translator, and an investor who really put his faith in this project. My translator and I will work together to deliver four chapters each week. Depending on the translating, editing, re-reading, checking, and re-reading-again process, the chapters will be uploaded each day or all at once. Careful as we may be, there can still be some errors at our best, so we welcome grammatical corrections, etc. We are very appreciative of your support.
