Olgar Bloodworth

The challenge

This is a beautiful village somewhere in Elford region of Land of Angdale. There is a heavy feeling of nature here as this village is seated in a forest. Every building here is in a form of tree houses, including houses, schools, shops, and others. Here lives one of the 3 species in this world, the elves. The adults are working hard to earn a living, while the children are either training with their archery skills or playing with their friends around.

These may sound like a very nice scene of this village, but somewhere in this village, something bad is spoiling the good view.

A boy who looked a little different from the others, is being chased by a few other boys. Yeap, that's our main character, Olgar Bloodworth. Olgar is a human that is adopted and raised by an elf family. Ever since he had memory, he had been living with the elves.

Back to the chase. Being a human, Olgar couldn't compete with the elf's agility. He is soon chased up by the few elves, and is beaten up. He couldn't do anything, but to protect himself as much as possible by covering his head with his arms and curling up the body.

"Who are you to say a comment on us?" Said Durlan Autumnfire,who seems to be the head of the few naughty elves. "You are not even of our species. What more you are a combat idiot. You can't even shoot an arrow properly or fight us. You are only fit to be embarrassed by us, like a dog." After the speaking, he spitted on Olgar. Then, he let his friends to beat Olgar up more.

Just when the elves are approaching Olgar, an arrow passed by them right in front of their chest. "Who is it!? Are you trying to kill us!?"shouted one of the naughty elves. A young boy who is dressed in green, walked out of the bush he was hiding slowly. He is Mirthal Agrivar, the son of Agrivar's family that adopted Olgar. He had a very close friendship with Olgar as they grew up together since young. Mirthal is one of the best archer in his grade. "How many times have i repeated myself? Leave Olgar alone! If you have problem hearing me, i don't mind enlarging your ear with my arrow." Mirthal said angrily.

"Heheheh,seems like our hero is trying to save his poor friend again." Durlan is one of the best archer in this grade too, leading to a strong feeling of competing with Mirthal. "You pathetic human. So weak that you can't even stand up for yourself." He insulted Olgar more.

"What did you say!? Say that again and my arrow will pierce you tongue!" Mirthal gave a angry stare at Durlan.

"Oh, I'm sorry. Hmm...you know what? I can give you a chance to prove yourself." Durlan looked at Olgar with an evil smile. "6 months from now, there will be a test in Elves Academy, in which we are required to collect target item prepared by the academy, and at the same time protect ourselves from teachers that will shoot us with special darts to disqualify us. The one with most target item collected will be 1st place, and will receive a grade 2 bow from the academy. Let's see who will collect more target item?"

"Hey! You are setting a trap for him! You knew he is not so good in archery n agility training!" Mirthal shouted loudly to express his anger.

"Heh,so you are admitting that he is weak too? Hahahahaha" Durlan laughed loudly,as if his plan to humiliate Olgar succeeded.

"I never said that! But...." Mirthal is still trying to protect Olgar.

"It's alright,Mirthal. I will accept his challenge." Olgar suddenly said,with the eye of determination.

"Heheh, alright then. I will be waiting to see your performance. Hahahaha. Let's go." Durlan lead his gang,left the place laughing.

"He is still so annoying." Said Mirthal.

"It's alright. I am used to these." Olgar replied.

"You should really stand up for yourself. You are 17 now. Even if you can't fight, scold them back." Mirthal lectured Olgar.

"Next time i will." Olgar nodded.

"Aih...now don't worry about the challenge. I will be there to help you. Have a good rest at home today, and we will continue our archery tuition tomorrow." Mirthal sighed and said.

"It's alright,Mirthal. You had helped me too much. I can handle this myself." Olgar rejected Mirthal's help, just to not owe Mirthal too much.

"What are you saying? Aren't we best friends?" Mirthal smiled and pointed out his fist.

"Hehe,yeah,best friends" Olgar pointed his fist too and gave Mirthal a bro fist.

They both laughed and Mirthal surpported Olgar to walk bac to their home.
