Chapter 300 Even though Sage found that Kane’s present was a little out of the place, Sage was quite fond of the crossbow.
Kane was always a fan for weapons and tools. When Sage just turned four and was able to hold things properly in her hands, Kane put a gun in her hand at her birthday party. Sage recalled that at that moment, the air grew cold immediately. Now that twenty years passed, Kane still gave her tools as gifts. However, the crossbow was much more useful than being given a gun. “Don’t underestimate this crossbow. It looks like a slingshot but it works like a gun.”
Kane then started to teach Sage how to use the crossbow. “You just have to press here. If you want to prank people, you can put toothpicks in here; but if someone angers or annoys you, you can put needles in here. It can pierce through their flesh perfectly.”
Kane and Sage were fumbling with the crossbow whereas the rest of the gang slowly moved away as they did not want to be caught in the crossfire.
Sage quickly understood how the crossbow worked. Picking up a toothpick and placing it into the slot, Sage aimed at a bottle of drink on the table and pulled the trigger.
The bottle was pierced through and liquid started seeping through the hole.
Seth, Nigel, and Luther instinctively took a step backward. Based on their past painful and terrifying experiences, it was best for them to stay away from Sage and Kane if they want to live a few years longer. “So? Not bad, right?” Kane looked pleased. Sage put down the crossbow and studied it carefully in her hand. It was small and delicate and was easy to bring around too. Sage nodded happily, “Yeah, it’s good. I like it, thanks, Kane!” “No worries.”
Kane tugged at the corners of his lips. At the sight of the table full of food, his eyes lit up. “Did you make all these? When can we start eating? I’m dying of hunger!”
Sage then kept, then put away the crossbow and replied, “We can start, but let me go check on the soup, then we can start eating.” Right then, Jim walked out of the kitchen with a tray of bowls of soup. “Sage, are we starting dinner?” Sage nodded, “Yeap.” Noticing that Sage wore the necklace he gave her, Jim beamed, “Alrighty, I’ll bring out the cake now.” Taking a glimpse at Jim, Nigel asked, “I’ve been meaning to ask who that handsome young lad
is.
