章節 165: Hawkeye Gough not as good as Hawkeye Though...
Reima looks at the group, "So you'll be travelling back to Anor Londo then?"
Ciaran nods, "Indeed, while it pains me to leave Artorias like this I will have them construct a grave a man of his stature deserves."
Reima "You should let Elizabeth know that you're safe Dusk, I guess this'll be where we part ways then."
Dusk "Sir Reima!" She squeaks out, "Do not leave me alone, please accompany me!" she almost pleads to him.
Reima "I'm sorry, but I have other duties to attend to... We will meet in the future though, so don't keep me waiting long." he says with some amusement.
The group start heading towards Anor Londo leaving Reima alone in the Colosseum, he immediately starts heading up and towards the tower that Gough resides on. He approaches the door and can already hear someone carving wood, unlocking the door he walks up and spots the giant named Gough. He seems to hear Reima's footsteps and begins speaking, "Hm? A visitor, have we? Thou must be the one who freed Artorias. An old friend he was, and thanks to thee... He left this world with honour intact... And here I am, retired and blind. Of little help to thee, I am afraid."
Reima "Greeting Gough, I've just returned from destroying the origin of the Abyss... I was actually hoping for your assistance with Kalameet."
The Giant seems so surprised at his words that he accidentally cuts through the block of wood he was carving and cuts his hand. "Ooohhh, Are you speaking the truth?" he questions while rubbing his cut hand.
Reima "I am, I was asked to rescue a princess the creature had kidnapped, unfortunately living happily ever after isn't one of my rewards" he quips.
Gough chuckles, "If it were I would've had a go at the creature myself. Still, to your question on whether I can assist against Kalameet... The answer would be no."
Confused, Reima pushes the giant to explain himself, "Why? I know you are still able to loose arrows accurately, despite your blindness... Is it too much to ask for some assistance in bringing it down permanently?"
Gough nods, "Unfortunately I am retired, I had left my ring with an old friend which would've improved the odds some but even with it, I doubt my ability to strike true."
Reima pulls out the Hawk ring that he had acquired from the Giant blacksmith in Anor Londo and hands it to Gough, "Is this the ring? A friend gave it to me after I gave him an extremely rare mineral."
The giant rolls it around in his hand before the ring expands until it's able to comfortably fit around his finger. "Huh, never thought my habit of bribing the fellow to make me more arrows would come back to bite me like this, a hunk of titanite always had him excited. What did you give him to have acquired this?" he asks curiously.
Reima "A mineral not seen before in this world." he states bluntly, Gough chuckles "At-least he valued my ring enough to trade it for something so unique, you know what? Never let it be known that Hawkeye Gough was a coward!" he drops his wood carving and stand up while haphazardly reaching for a massive ornate wooden bow propped at the side.
He picks it up along with an arrow, and starts listening for Kalameet, "A friend of Coaugh is a friend of mine. Let us celebrate our triumphs or burn to death trying!" he says as he starts drawing his bow towards the black shadow in the distance, after a suspenseful couple of seconds he unleashes the huge arrow towards the shadow...
...
It's almost there!
...
...
...
The arrow approaches the black dragon at super sonic speeds, it gets closer, and closer until it's about to pierce it's chest!... And flies completely past the dragon...
Gough "Did I hit it?" he asks as Reima face palms himself hard enough to cause bruises, "NO YOU DIDN'T! AH SHIT! IT'S COMING RIGHT FOR US!" He shouts, heart beating fast as he panics.
Gough quickly grabs another arrow and slowly draws it at Kalameet gets closer to the Colosseum, it's around a mile away when it unleashes it towards the giant black lizard.
Reima unconciously holds his breath as he watches the arrow fly towards the dragon, Gough's skill is displayed as it strikes the dragons wing, causing it to crash through the Colosseum wall and landing in the area where he'd fought Artorias.
Gough "A truer shot was never loosed" he says with pride as the building shakes as the enraged dragon tries to break out of the Colosseum it now finds itself trapped in.
Reima "It would've been much cooler if you had hit the first shot" he says as he starts heading towards the arena to fight the dragon.
The giant raises his voice at Reima as he leaves, "When you tell tales of this, don't mention the first shot!" he said anxious at his reputation going down the toilet.
Reima approaches the entrance to the arena which is now a newly created Fog-Gate, he has no idea how he's going to fight this thing in such a constrained space, but he'll give it a try anyway... Luckily the bonfire is nearby in-case it becomes a battle of attrition.
He does all the pre-battle preparation while enchanting Arcell with Crystal and stuffing Green blossoms down his throat before stepping through the Fog-Gate.
創作者的想法 
Niggross
Niggross Reima writes a book about how bad an archer Gough is, he gives Gough a book to assure him it's fine due to him not being able to read it. Years go by when the giant finally finds out the contents of the book. "REIMA!" he screams in anguish.
As always, if I missed anything please let me know.
