Wular University Soccer Stadium;
The next day evening, the stadium was filled with college and high school students, scouts from professional teams, and locals that have free time.
People who were interested in Archery also arrived from several cities of the Eastern continent.
Like everyone else, Wil and his family entered the university.
"Big brother Wil, do you know Archery?" Mia was walking beside Wil while asking the questions.
"Well, yes. I think I'm fairly good at it." Wil replied while thinking what's going with this little sister of his.
At early in the morning, Rey and Mia visited his room, waking him from sleep.
She then asked him to accompany them for the hotel tour as he had stayed here before. If it was anyone else, Wil would have gotten annoyed but for some reason, when he looked at Mia's sincere eyes as she addressed him as big brother, his mouth had already agreed with it before his brain did the thinking.
While Wi was acting as a tour guide, Rey didn't talk much and only talked once in a while. On the other hand, the little girl seemed pretty much enthusiastic as she kept on asking the details.
After finishing with the hotel tour, they parted ways to fresh up.
Later, around 8, once again, she visited his room, this time with Silver to invite the restaurant on the highest floor (50) that also has an observation deck where Rey and his mother are waiting for them.
Wil was a bit disappointed that he wasn't able to invite Hyori's family to the breakfast.
But, he can't do anything about it as they left the hotel early in the morning to meet Hyori, although the finals will start in the evening.
He wondered whether they are uncomfortable eating with his family as they are strangers until a day ago. Thankfully for him, Aster also accompanied them doing his job, or else, Wil would have thought they were uncomfortable with himself.
Soon, the dishes have arrived, and the five of them started their breakfast.
As Mia is a westerner, she wasn't accustomed to eating eastern dishes, especially the ones with a lot of side dishes. Not to mention, sharing the dishes is a part of the eastern continent's culture which she wasn't comfortable with.
Taking a seat beside him, she continued to ask about the dishes. Wil explained her patiently while unknowingly tried to show off his knowledge about eastern cuisine at the same time.
Although he made mistakes from time to time regarding their names, since the others have no idea about the dishes, they didn't find anything amiss.
Looking at how well Wil is getting along with Mia, a big smiled appeared on Scarlet. She continued to watch them from the corner of her eyes.
As for Rey, now that he is aware of the truth about his birth, he couldn't help but feel slightly jealous upon watching how his sister is trying to bond with her biological half-brother.
But, at the same, seeing a smile on Scarlet and Mia, he was also happy for them.
After finishing with the breakfast, they toured around the city, took a bunch of pictures at every tourist spot, and returned to the hotel by 3 o'clock.
It was only after returning to his room did Wil realized that he forgot his original objective and had a nice family vacation, instead.
He then strongly reminded himself not to do this again as he was worried that he would really forgive his mother, at this rate.
Everyone took a rest until Silver got a call from Aster.
Around 6 o'clock in the evening, as the sunset and the sky darkened, Silver then drove the family of four to the university, where they met Hyori's family outside of the stadium before entering together.
Everyone took their seats. The stadium with filled with thousands of spectators with all the screens switched on, displaying a close look at what's happening on the playground.
The finals were started with a couple of speeches from the Association's president, the university's Chancellor, and some students.
After that, a rock band that was formed by the university students appeared on the stage.
They opened the tournament with their wonderful performance to raise the excitement of the spectators.
As the music being played in the background, the host announced the entry of two finalists from the high school division.
One after the other, a boy and a girl entered the ground.
The Hosts announced the rules of the finals as a formality.
The first round is of normal shooting.
The second round is to shoot the oscillating targets.
The third round is to shoot the moving targets. In this case, the robots that will have three targets on their bodies move randomly. One on their forehead. The second on their abdomen and the final is on their back.
For the high school division, they will be given 50 arrows. All they have to strike the target with the arrow. Each target is worth 10 points. So, there's a total of 300 points is at stake.
However, for college division, hitting the target won't just be enough. Where the arrow was hit is also important. The targets were divided into four divisions. White, Blue, Yellow, and Black.
The outermost white ring is worth 3 points, blue is worth 6 points, Yellow is worth 9 points and the innermost black ring is worth 10 points.
Upon hearing the rules of the tournament, Wil jokingly said to Mia that the competition might as well change its name from IAC to MWC (Mini World Championships).
Mia didn't get the meaning. However, she didn't let out her thoughts and simply nodded and then, watched the screen that was showing the high school students standing in their position.
The target was placed 45 meters away and each of them was given a quiver with twenty arrows.
In the end, the boy won the round-1 challenge with a score of 179-171.
Amid the claps and cheers, the two of them left for the waiting room.
Then, round-1 for the college division started.
The first one to enter is Hyori. Jiwon enthusiastically cheered her sister from the stands. Many youngsters along with Rey were awed at the first sight of her appearance. On the other hand, Wil just clapped with a smile.
Right then, the host announced, "Let's welcome the second contestant of the finals. Fujimori Sakura."
As the petite college freshman entered the ground, Scarlet stared at the name on the screen and mumbled, "Fujimori? What a nostalgic surname, indeed. I wonder whether that old man is doing well…"
"Hmm? Did you say something, Mrs. Quilton?" Mrs. Lee, who sat beside her, asked her as she heard something about an old man.
Scarlet shook her head, "nothing." She continued to watch.
Soon, the finals started with the round-1, shooting the target that was placed 60 meters away. Originally, they thought of placing it 46 meters just like before.
However, looking at their wonderful performances, the relevant authorities were forced to increase the distance. Little did they imagine that 60 meters were a joke to these two girls…
Upon getting the signal, Hyori and Sakura released the arrow at the same time. Both of them zoomed through the air like lightning and hit at the dead center.
"Oh!" Scarlet seems surprised as she looked at the result. "I didn't expect these two girls are this talented."
Right then, as one of the commentators voiced their opinions, Scarlet's eyes suddenly widened in surprise. "Hitoshi's granddaughter? That's impossible…"
