Janessa thought that made sense. True, Madelyn has never learned to shoot before, so her skills are likely subpar, She might even not be able to hit a person while my skills are somewhat passable, thanks to my practice. In that case, I suppose there’s nothing for me to be afraid of

Therefore, Janessa nodded. “All right then. I agree.”

Then, Janessa went to collect her protective gear.

At that moment, Josiah moved closer to Madelyn, asking curiously, “Who is this woman to you?”

Madelyn grinned. “An enemy.”

“Do you hold a grudge against her or something?” Josiah asked, somewhat puzzled.

It’s not just a grudge. Madelyn revealed a meaningful smile. It won’t be an exaggeration to say she’s my sworn

nemerit.

However, Madelyn did not reveal much to Josiah. She simply instructed, “Don’t worry about it. Just remember to teach her a lesson for me later.”

“All right, no problem.” Josiah nodded in agreement.

After a while, Janessa emerged, fully decked out in protective gear.

As she adjusted her shoulder guard, she casually asked, “Madelyn, does Sebastian know you’re here?”

“No,” Madelyn casually remarked.

Suddenly, Madelyn acted as though she was hit by a sudden realization, looking all flustered. “Janessa, you must keep this a secret for me. Don’t tell Sebastian. If he gets angry again, I’ll be in deep trouble.”

Is that so? Upon hearing those words, Janessa smirked and spoke in a considerate manner. “Of course not. We are best friends, aren’t we? It’s only right for us to keep each other’s secrets, right?”

Just as she said that, she had already begun to scheme. If Sebastian’s unaware she’s here, he must also be oblivious that Josiah’s here with her. Does this mean they’re secretly meeting here behind Sebastian’s back? How interesting!

Following that, it was time for the shooting practice session.

As per the rules stated earlier, someone would be used as a target. They would hold a balloon, about

[mb of a fist, above their head while others aimed to hit it. Those who missed were deemed the losers.

At that moment, Madelyn suddenly took the initiative and said, “I’ll go first. You guys can use me for target practice.

After speaking, she picked up a balloon and positioned herself in front of the original target.

Janessa was rather pleased to see her take the initiative. Madelyn, you’re only fit to be a target.

Meanwhile, Madelyn shot Josiah a knowing glance.

Madelyn said, “I be the first one to step up as the target, and you’ll be the first one to shoot, all right?”

Josiah replied, “No problem”

“Don’t make it sound so easy,” Madelyn warned. “You’re used to hitting iron targets, but I’m a human being. It’s not the same, okay? If you get nervous and accidentally hurt me, be ready because I’ll hit you back.”

Josiah was almost at a loss for words. “Why do you still not trust my skills? If I hit you, I’ll call you Your Majesty, okay?”

“That’s more like it.”

That was the end of the flashback as the scene returned to the present.

Holding a balloon, Madelyn looked at Josiah with a hint of nervousness, silently pleading, Josiah, please don’t make a mistake!

Though the fake bullets couldn’t injure anyone, their impact was just as powerful as a real bullet. Getting hit by it was quite painful.

Josiah wore a calm expression.

After all, he had been handling guns since he was six, and after turning seven, he never made a mistake again. Any gun in his hands felt like an extension of his body. Thus, he had a certain level of confidence.

Following that, Josiah lifted his gun, aiming it not at Madelyn but at the balloon above her head, and closed his eyes.

Upon seeing him close his eyes, Madelyn immediately lost her composure. What on earth is he up to? What if he misses?

Suddenly, the balloon in Madelyn’s hand popped.

Indeed, Josiah had scored a hit.

Grinning, Josiah turned to Madelyn with pride as though he was saying. “What do you think? Impressive, right?”

At last, Madelyn breathed a sigh of relief. However, deep down, she was undeniably impressed by his skills,

Then, Josiah opened his eyes and fired two shots, both of which were so accurate they left people in awe.

After three attempts, Madelyn remained unscathed, which naturally put her at ease.

Then, it was Janessa’s turn.

It was the first time Janessa had ever tried her hand at shooting human targets. Her hand was inexplicably shaking, which naturally affected her aim. Both bullets she fired ended up missing entirely.

With her last shot, Janessa intently aimed at the balloon atop Madelyn’s head and pulled the trigger.

getting grazed by a fake bullet would hurt that much!

“Madelyn, are you all right?” Janessa rushed forward, alarmed.

Josiah also followed to check out the situation.

However, Madelyn forced herself to stand expressionlessly. “I’m fine. It’s time for the next round.”

In the subsequent round, Josiah was the target, with Madelyn shooting first.

Fearful and panicking, Josiah blurted, “You better not miss, or I’ll have your head!”
