Julies Evans' POV
Honestly, I had no idea she could shoot a bow that well.
All I knew of Alice was her appearance from the game—cool, sharp-tongued, elegant in that noble-born kind of way.
Archery? Never even crossed my mind. She didn't use a bow in the mid-boss battle, not once. I don't think I even saw a bow near her character model.
And yet here she was, casually nailing birds out of the sky like it was nothing.
'So she's good with a bow too, huh…'
Being proficient with multiple weapons meant versatility—something that could completely shift how dungeon conquests played out. That kind of adaptability was priceless.
On the way back from collecting the birds she had brought down—each of them clean kills, not a single feather out of place—I decided to test the waters.
"Lady Alice," I said, trying to keep it light, "how about we hunt a little further in that direction?"
She shot me a quick glance, suspicious already. Classic.
