Chapter 17 Restoring Emiah's Faith

At the end of noon, after a hasty lunch at old Danny's, Witt packed up the yard and ran towards the shabby hut in the direction of his home. Last night Witt and Joey agreed to practice archery in the courtyard of Joey's house this afternoon. Old Joy had already traveled with Varishin Bulleye on his expedition to Nord, and Joy was able to take the opportunity to teach Witt some basic archery skills so as not to bury a good bow.

Witt ran excitedly on the dirt road of Fesdena, the handle of the axe stuck in the cloth belt around his waist constantly swinging back and forth, slapping Witt's thigh flesh, and the pain became more and more bitter as he passed. Witt really wanted to find a place to put it away, but he was afraid that he would lose the axe again, so he had to hold down the handle of the axe first, and then find another cloth belt to tie it next time.

Witt ran on the path in a peculiar posture, causing the children on the road to laugh, and the villagers who met him also looked at Witt with strange eyes, as if they were looking at an orangutan, which embarrassed Witt, a teenager in an ignorant period.

After a short trot, Witt reached the small mound behind his house, and dug out an oak bow that was tightly wrapped in a coarse cloth bag, according to the small twigs that had been left deep in the earth, and the marks that were difficult to detect without careful inspection. Due to the tight wrapping, neither the bow nor the arrows were eroded.

To avoid being seen by the village guards, Witt put the oak bow and arrows back into a coarse cloth bag and hurried towards Joey's house. Joey's family is a hunter, and even if he is seen by idlers, he won't think too much.

"Joey! Joey! Witt patted the fence door of the courtyard as he peered through the cracks to see what was going on inside the courtyard. I saw Emia drying animal skins and dried animal meat in the yard, but Joey was nowhere to be seen.

"Emia! Help me open the door, I'm Witt. Witt shouted with a big breath.

Emia had already heard Witt's voice walking towards the fence gate, and when she heard that Witt was so anxious and thought that something was wrong, she was also a little nervous, and hurriedly opened the fence door without saying much, just pointed to the door of the house to indicate that Wittjoy was in the house.

Emia was still a little unfamiliar with this place, and Witt didn't bother it, and trotted straight into the house, shouting, "Joey! I've brought my bow and arrows, are you ready? ”

As soon as he ran to the door of the house, Joey just stretched his waist and yawned and walked out, and the two of them rushed against each other, so frightened that Witt hurriedly avoided it to the side.

Joey was not so lucky, he had just been woken up by Witt, his sleepy eyes were still in a state of worry, and his first reaction was to use his hands to push forward against Witt's impact. Who knew that Witt's reaction was so agile and avoided from the side, but he threw himself into the air and fell forward, his hands flapping back and forth in the air like a fledgling learning to fly, his consciousness had already been awakened, but he could only watch himself eat dirt helplessly.

Witt stood aside, and the shock he had just made up for was not relieved! If you react slowly, you will have to lie on the ground with your own share. Emia had been following Witt not far behind, and she was stunned when she saw this scene, and she was at a loss for what to do, and stood in place in a daze.

"You...... This...... Bastard! Really? Joey struggled to "pull" his face out of the dirt with his hands on the ground, his face covered in dust, and kept spitting out the saliva containing sand in his mouth.

Emia was stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help laughing when she saw Joey's yellow face like a monkey, and then felt that it was inappropriate, so she hurriedly covered her mouth with her hand and snickered.

Joey was already very angry, and when he saw that Emia was also laughing at herself, she was famous all her life, and the heroic image she had established since she was born was defeated in the hands of Witt, and she was even more angry, and pointed at Witt, who was stunned by the door, and scolded: "Look at me if I don't kill you bastard!" ”

After saying that, he quickly slapped his hands on the ground, and his sturdy body stood up as if it were like a spring, picked up the wooden stick on the side of the door and swung it at Witt. Witt is also not a vegetarian, jumping outside all day, although archery is far inferior to Joey, but his physical fitness is still very good, and he dodged Joey's restrained stick with a side dodge.

It is not surprising that Witt easily dodged this stick Joey, the two teenagers have grown up together since childhood, and this small friction has not been less common. It's just that Emia, who was in a hurry, hurriedly stepped forward to stop Joey. Witt also deliberately hides behind Emia to anger Joey.

This trouble went straight to the end of the day, and the two sides were out of breath and stopped. The three of them sat on the wooden doorrail in front of the house and gasped, and Witt took the lead in saying, "It's all your fault, you haven't started practicing yet." ”

"How dare you say it!" As soon as Joey heard the anger, he came up and wanted to make a move again, but was stopped by Emiya in time: "Okay! Can you both stop for a while? I have to say that this trouble has made Emia a lot closer to these two people, and she is no longer silent like yesterday, just nodding and shaking her head.

Witt was naturally happy to see that Emia could talk to them: "Okay! It's not too early, I brought the oak bow and the practice arrow, and I haven't practiced it since the last time I made a bow! You're going to have to teach me a good lesson this time, Joey. ”

Joey looked disgusted, but he didn't care about it, he just deliberately said with a straight face: "Hmph! Don't come with me yet! With that, he walked towards the practice range in the backyard.

Witt knew Joey's temper, and deliberately slammed his shoulder and said, "Don't pretend! Isn't it okay for me to apologize? Why are you so stingy? ”

Joey was not convinced, you came and I came and went, pushing back and forth one by one, until the practice range did not stop, and Emia couldn't help but laugh. Ever since the day her father was captured in the Lord's Fortress, Emia had been depressed and listless, and had never laughed so happily as she did today.

When the two teenagers saw Emiya smiling so sweetly, they winked at each other. It turned out that Witt had already told Joey everything about Emia, and the two teenagers saw that Emia ate very little every day, and they were always sullen and didn't say a word, and they also felt sympathy for her. Since the two chose to leave her behind, they should pay their due responsibility for their choice. So the two came up with such an unsolvable solution, hoping to bring Emiya out of the shadow area of her heart and regain the cute and lively posture that a young girl should have.

The two of them were relieved when they saw Emiya open her mouth and smile again, although it was impossible to solve the problem at once, but it had an effect after all. Over time, the two believe that they can rebuild Emiya's confidence, re-emerge in front of the dark social system with a new attitude, and live their own unique life path.
