Type-Moon, but the Servant is Tom

Chapter 49: Shoot! The Arrow!

"biu~~~ ." (x2)

With the sound of two consecutive waves, Tom and Jerry had already aimed their arrows at the tiny target in the sky and released the bowstrings in their hands.

However... in the end, there was only the sound of the bowstrings vibrating, but no arrows were seen flying out.

After a full two seconds, the cat and the mouse finally realized the problem. They both looked at the bows and arrows in their hands with a bewildered expression. They began to doubt whether the bows and arrows they took out were fake.

"...No, why don't you shoot?" Bai Song, watching Tom and Jerry preparing to shoot down the drone with arrows, was already prepared to run as soon as it was hit. But Tom and Jerry didn't even shoot the arrows, and nothing happened.

Bai Song had even prepared to wait for the drone to be hit, then hold onto Tom and Jerry and make a hundred-meter dash.

As a result, they shot, but not completely.

Tom and Jerry turned their heads and looked up at Bai Song's face when they heard his words. Then, they both shrugged and raised their hands in sync. Their synchronization was so high that Bai Song even suspected that if these two guys didn't have a slight difference in height, they could go straight to the Pacific Rim and pilot mechs.

"Shoot another arrow for me to see." Bai Song said helplessly.

Upon hearing Bai Song's words, Tom and Jerry immediately turned around and bent their bows again, aiming at the drone that was still in the sky without leaving, and then released their grip on the bowstrings.

"biu~ ! biu~ !"

The sound waves were the same as before, and the arrows remained firmly on the bows. If Bai Song hadn't seen them put the arrows on the bows with his own eyes, he would have doubted whether the arrows were welded to the bows.

However, under Bai Song's intense gaze, he quickly discovered the problem!

He took the bow and arrow from Tom's hand and shot it at the nearby wall. Although the posture was amateurish and the accuracy was surprisingly poor, the arrow did manage to shoot out.

"To shoot an arrow like this, don't hold onto the arrow tightly with the hand that holds the bow. How can you shoot it if you're gripping the arrow tightly?!" Bai Song said, and then handed the bow and arrow back to Tom, attempting to let him and Jerry try again. After all, it couldn't go wrong for the third time, right? He had already demonstrated it, so there shouldn't be any more issues, right?

At this moment, Jerry, who was holding the bow and arrow, also looked at his grip and realized that he accidentally held the arrow along with the bow. He immediately changed his grip and started imitating Bai Song's actions.

After watching Bai Song's demonstration, Tom nodded confidently. This time, he directly aimed for the drone in the sky for the third time.

While Jerry was still figuring out the bow and arrow, he had already released the bowstring.

"Whoosh~~~!!!"

With a sound of breaking through the air, Tom successfully shot the arrow!

Yes, Tom was successfully "shot by the arrow." Only the bow remained suspended in place, and the arrow remained motionless.

Looking at Tom, who was shot like a missile towards the drone, Bai Song was dumbfounded. "Ah, what...?"

"Ah-ha!" Tom's speed was incredibly fast. In the blink of an eye, he reached the airspace where the drone was and pounced on it like a famished cat, perfectly grabbing the drone that was several times larger than Jerry.

Instead of waiting for it to fall, Tom, still in the air, grinned and pulled out a hammer from behind, smashing the drone into pieces.

After completely destroying the drone, Tom began to descend towards the ground.

On the ground, once Jerry confirmed that his posture perfectly matched Bai Song's, he finally shot his arrow. With a perfect arc, it automatically shot towards... Tom!

As Tom was about to reach the ground, just one meter away, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in the sole of his left foot. In a panic, Tom quickly adjusted his falling posture and landed firmly on the ground with only his right foot, preventing further injury.

He lifted his hands to hold up his foot and discovered that an arrow had deeply pierced into it. Tom's face quickly turned red from bottom to top!

Tom wanted to scream in pain, but then he suddenly realized that Bai Song had covered his mouth just a moment ago, preventing him from making any noise in this area. That meant it was a designated quiet zone. With this in mind, Tom hastily suppressed the scream that was about to burst out.

But it was impossible to completely hold it in. Venting was necessary, or else it would have to be released right there.

At this moment, Jerry also noticed that something was wrong with Tom and immediately saw the arrow on Tom's foot. Jerry was scared and quickly threw the bow to the side, pretending not to be involved and whistling casually, although internally he was panicking.

After landing, Tom held his left foot with both hands and quickly rotated 360 degrees on his right foot, searching for a place where he could scream in agony without disturbing others.

Eventually, Tom's eyes landed on a distant mountain top with a temple. His eyes lit up, and he immediately stopped the 360-degree turn.

Without caring about anything else, he felt that he couldn't hold back his scream any longer. So, without hesitation, he hugged his left foot with both hands and transformed the two toes of his right foot into makeshift legs. With only these two toes, he swiftly dashed towards the distant mountain top!

Watching Tom's figure disappear into the distance, Bai Song was amazed by his speed. "Holy cow, this speed...?!"

Before this, his impression of Tom's speed was limited to Tom carrying him and drifting on a mountain road at 60 miles per hour.

But this time, Bai Song's understanding of Tom's speed was once again shattered.

Although there was no sonic boom, undoubtedly, Tom's speed running towards the distance with two toes had surpassed the speed of sound. In an instant, Tom's figure disappeared from Bai Song's field of view.

In less than three seconds, Tom had covered a vast distance using only two toes, passing through the Ryuudou Temple and Gudako's summoning site, and finally arriving at the top of the mountain where the temple was located.

Then, he began to scream loudly, "Aaahhhhhh!!!!!"
