Alex and Sophia stood at the outskirts of the town, the morning sun casting a golden glow upon the field where their archery duel would take place. The air crackled with anticipation as onlookers gathered, eager to witness the clash between these two skilled marksmen.

Sophia nocked an arrow onto her bowstring, her eyes fixed on the distant target. Her confident demeanor did not waver, even in the face of Alex's notorious reputation. She had heard tales of his unmatched archery skills, but she was determined to prove her own worth.

Alex, on the other hand, relished the opportunity to demonstrate his superiority once again. He confidently drew his own bow, his fingers caressing the string as he aimed at the target. The crowd held its breath, captivated by the impending showdown.

With a swift release, Sophia's arrow whizzed through the air, soaring towards the target with remarkable precision. It struck the center, eliciting applause and admiration from the spectators. However, as the echoes of their applause subsided, Alex's arrow soared through the air, trailing a glimmering streak of magic in its wake.

The crowd gasped in awe as his arrow surpassed Sophia's, hitting the target dead center with effortless grace. Sophia's eyes widened, a mix of astonishment and acknowledgment flickering within them. She had been outmatched, and she knew it.

A sense of pride swelled within Alex, his smirk widening as he reveled in the victory. The crowd erupted into applause, their admiration for his skill and power evident in their cheers and applause. Sophia approached him, a hint of a smile gracing her lips as she extended her hand in acknowledgment.

"Well done, Alex," she said, her voice tinged with a mixture of admiration and respect. "You truly are a formidable archer."

A case of theft: this story is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation.

Alex accepted her hand with a smug grin, his ego soaring to new heights. The realization that he was unmatched in his abilities only fueled his desire for more power and conquest.

In the wake of the archery duel, Alex's thoughts turned to further testing his newfound strength. His magic-infused smartwatch, pulsating with untapped potential, served as a constant reminder of his extraordinary abilities. Curiosity gnawed at him, urging him to explore the true extent of his powers.

With a determined stride, Alex made his way back to the Adventurers Guild. As he entered its hallowed halls, he was greeted by the familiar hustle and bustle of fellow adventurers. Conversations hushed as eyes turned towards him, a mix of admiration and curiosity lighting up the faces of those present.

Seeking to measure his power level, Alex approached the guild's testing chamber. He stepped onto the magical platform, its intricate runes glowing beneath his feet. A collective breath was held as the magical apparatus hummed to life, its purpose to gauge the strength of those who dared to stand upon it.

The room fell silent as the power level scale surged into motion. The needle raced upward, surpassing the known boundaries of measurement. Gasps filled the chamber as the scale continued to climb, registering an unprecedented power level that defied conventional limits.

Whispers spread like wildfire throughout the guild, rumors of Alex's extraordinary power reaching every corner. Eyes turned to him, a mix of awe, envy, and intrigue reflected in their gazes. He had become a force to be reckoned with—a living legend within the Adventurers Guild.

And amidst the whispers and admiring glances, Sophia stood, her heart pounding with a mixture of fascination and adoration. She had witnessed Alex's unrivaled skill, his overwhelming power, and it stirred something within her. Her admiration for him deepened, and a seed of affection began to bloom.

As the day drew to a close, Alex couldn't help but notice Sophia's lingering glances and the slight flush on her cheeks. He relished in the knowledge that his abilities had captivated her, that he had become the object of her desire. With a knowing smirk, he realized that his journey in this new world held more than just conquest and power—it held the promise of a harem that would be his to command.
