During one week Luan trained with bow and arrow against the Brugnar.
They were easy targets, since they were slow.
In the beginning, he missed the target several times, but little by little he started getting the hang of it.
Catharina performed better than him.
She seemed to have a certain vocation for it. In just two days she was already shooting arrows without missing the target.
...
The next morning...
[Two Brothers Weapon Shop]
"Is it ready?" Luan asked.
"Yes, boss, here it is." Frank who had a robust body replied, placing two black obsidian bows on the counter and eight quivers – each quiver had 30 arrows:
"As you requested, the body of the bow is made of Lv2 Monster Tree. Its resistance and durability is guaranteed. And, with our effort, two brothers, it became a raw material. In addition, the threads you delivered were integrated into the bows. Boss, I really liked working with these threads, it's perfect for making a bow and arrow. How about this, supply me with these threads and I will pay you a fair price?"
"We can talk about this later." Luan picked up the bow and pulled the string: "Perfect, I loved it!"
Catharina picked up her own bow a little smaller than his.
"Mm, not bad." She commented.
Rubbing his hands, brother Frank smiled in a flattering way: "How about it, it seems you liked our services?"
"Mm, I'm satisfied." Luan said: "About me supplying threads to you... It's negotiable."
Brother Frank's eyes shone: "Very well, let's talk about this calmly... How about going to the back of the shop? We have a bow and arrow range, you can test it better, we can also talk about the threads, what do you think?"
Luan looked at Catharina, seeing her nod, he replied: "Sounds great."
...
At the back of the Two Brothers Weapon Shop, there was indeed a bow and arrow range.
Not only that, there were also more things to test different types of weapons.
While Catharina went to test the bow and arrow, Luan stayed talking with brother Frank.
After a lot of negotiation, he decided to sell each meter of thread for 1 silver coin.
"Happy collaboration!" Frank shook his hand with a wide smile.
Luan smiled, shaking his hand back: "Happy collaboration!"

In the dungeon.
After buying so many things, what stood out the most – at least visually speaking – was the cart they were pulling.
On floor 3, the nightmares had many parts of their body that were worth a lot of money. But, it was difficult to carry. That's why it was recommended to have a cart to carry.
In larger groups, they took at least two carts, even 3 or 4, depending on the size of the group.
Not too far from there, there was a group of four Brugnar.
Catharina stopped helping to pull the cart, saying: "Let me take care of them."
"Okay." He nodded.
What started as a quick walk turned into a run, soon she turned into a white blur.
*Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!*
Almost like a dance, she moved her hands, cutting the 4 heads. And, while the heads were still in the air, she removed their eyes one by one in a quick and precise way.
Honestly, that was at least insane.
It was at a speed much beyond what an Lv2 would normally be able to reach.
At least Luan didn't have confidence to do the same.
Another thing. All the blood that splashed on her was attracted by her left hand, almost like a magnetic effect.
This was one more of her vampire abilities. Blood control.
She had already tested before extracting blood from an animal, and it was even better than when she bit them.
When she came back to stay by his side, Luan said with regret: "It would be perfect if you could solidify the blood. That way, you could even create blood arrows."
"Mm, I think so too." She said in a calm tone: "But, no matter how much I try, the maximum I can do is this..."
In her hand, she created a blood arrow. However, at the moment he shot the arrow, it simply fell to the ground.
The arrow shape loses the transformation the instant it stays 10 cm away from her.
Luan said: "It may be that you can't do it now, but that doesn't mean you never will."
"Yeah, maybe." She nodded calmly, not seeming very worried about it.
All she could do now was continue trying her best.
While the eyes were placed in a plastic bag, then in the cart, they continued walking with the destination of the stairs that led to floor 2.
In the cart, besides the more special arrows, there were common arrows. Several of them actually.
When another group of Brugnar appeared on their path, Luan stopped the cart, and said: "Leave it to me this time."
"Mm."
Picking up the bow and 4 arrows, placing three leaning on the cart's railing, he pulled an arrow that he had already coated the tip with wool and shot.
*Whoosh!*
The arrow whistled through the wind, advancing at an incredible speed.
*Beng!*
Just 2 cm below the third eye of the Brugnar, the arrow embedded, and the creature fell dead backwards.
This made the three remaining Brugnar extend their arms forward and run towards them looking like zombies.
Picking up the next arrow, he shot.
*Whoosh!*
*Beng!*
The Brugnar that was with its mouth open screaming "Gushhh", fell backwards upon having an arrow piercing through its open mouth.
Very agilely, Luan pulled another arrow, followed by another.
*Whoosh!*
*Whoosh!*
Just a few cm apart from each other, in sequence, the arrows hit their targets.
*Beng!*
*Beng!*
One arrow hit the left nostril and the other the right.
The two Brugnar fell backwards, writhing in pain until they stopped moving.
"Let me get the eyes for you." Catharina asked.
"Would you do me that favor?"
"Of course." She replied, going to the Brugnar.
Compared to him, she was better at doing this.
In less than two minutes, she returns with all 12 eyes in a plastic bag.
