SWNOVELS
Chapter 70
“Catch him! Get that bastard!”
The Rising Sun guild members ran until the soles of their feet were sweaty.
However, Leeha’s speed was more than 10% faster than theirs. Rather than narrowing their distance down, it was getting wider and wider. Moreover, since there were countless small houses of kobolds, they realized that the gap between them widened every time they turned a corner.
“Magician! Shoot him, what are you doing?”
“The, the… the distance when casting is widening, haaa, haaa, magic 一 haa, haa.”
“Damn it!”
The only person capable of ranged attack, the wizard, was not able to cast.
It took at least 5 seconds to cast magic, by then, Leeha would have long disappeared from his view.
To make matters worse, his stamina was already starting to drop, so instead of chasing, he was doing his best not to get left behind.
“Why isn’t that bastard getting tired? How much did that dealer invest into stamina!”
“How would I know! Catch him quickly! If Tikal-nim comes, he will be pissed.”
“Don’t I know that?”
They have to contribute. They have to get the loot.
Agonia Oso’s equipment is rated A-class among the items that could be worn below level 100.
‘In other words, anyone who gets it and offers it to the GM… will be the next action leader.’
If one became an action leader, they could get a lot of money, and above all, they don’t have to be ripped off by that bitch Tikal.
All of the guild members who followed Tikal’s order were frantic. In terms of bullying the weak, all Rising Sun guild members have the same tendencies, so there was no sense of companionship.
They just wanted to step on Tikal with their colleagues next to them.
“Hey, if you can’t use attack magic, try detection! Whether or not there are traps. That leech-like bastard runs away well even when it’s already been so long.”
“Haa, haa, then please stop and protect me.”
“Why do kobolds keep popping out? Okay!”
They had already run for more than 10 minutes into the Hijuit village.
Although it was a large town, the commotion made by humans was enough for the kobolds to hear it.
Of course, if one or two popped out, they couldn’t threaten the five, level 50 users, however, the Rising Sun guild members were humans too. Even if they were not overwhelmingly strong, if kobolds came out in large numbers, they would have difficulties withstanding it. Before that, they had to catch that bastard.
“Cast now!”
“Quickly!”
A milky white light entered the wizard’s body.
It didn’t take long for the magic to indicate the location and direction of the target they were aiming for.
“Detect!”
Hwaaang—!
A milky light source that spread over the entire village of the Hijuit tribe. The light spread like a ripple and was absorbed back into the wizard’s body.
And the wizard knew. He felt as if he could grasp the target his mana detected.
About 30m to the right.
In the corner of the kobold house!
He was nearby? Didn’t he run anymore?
“Find it- sehahahak!”
Taaang—!
The wizard’s body fell like a felled tree. Kuung, a corpse turned gray with its face pierced.
“Where the fuck is that bastard-!”
“There! Look at the direction where the shot came from, this asshole! He’s over there!”
“Beat it! You kobold bastards!”
The Rising Sun guild members’ complexions darkened. Now, they had no detection. They have to run on their feet.
Where the hell is he hiding!
‘Now, I have killed all the annoying ones.’
Leeha quickly reloaded and started running again.
The Delicate Hand Technique skill has already finished, and he wouldn’t be able to use it for a while because of its cooldown, but it was enough.
‘Two wizards, one archer and one healer. Four people for 15 minutes after his first shot.’
Still, it was a satisfactory result. First of all, they were higher level than himself, and he didn’t take any damage.
“Ka-! Humans, invaded village!”
“Boundary, ka-! Alarm bell, ringing!”
Two kobolds popped out in front of Leeha, who was just running around the corner.
Their size was a bit small. Kobold workers?
Leeha fired while lifting the loaded musket.
A smooth movement of his finger led to the explosion of one kobold’s head.
“Bayonet Charge!”
“Ka!”
Leeha did not use the combat assistance system.
Even though it was a kobold worker that needed a level 30 hunting party to be caught, it was already a piece of cake for Leeha.
There was a gunshot! This was it!
Catch him! Follow me, hurry up!
‘Tsk. That’s why I didn’t want to use it.’
Leeha was learning the fatal flaw of a musket. Exposure!
Predicting the direction where the bullet had flown was something that only those who were familiar with combat or have quite a lot of knowledge can know.
However, the musket could be located precisely because of the loud noise and the white smoke that rose into the sky like fire.
If one had eyes and ears, one would not miss even if one tried to miss it.
Leeha quickly got a bag of gunpowder. contemporary romance
Still, the reload took longer than usual. This was the first time Leeha had fought users.
They had better judgment and movements than NPCs.
As a result, he became tense, and when one is tense, ones’ body becomes rigid.
‘Slowly, but quickly!’
It was contradictory, but it was an accurate judgment. The slower he moved, the faster his actions would be.
I put the iron bullets in and ran, tapping the butt of the musket to the ground.
The butt of the low-grade, crude musket rattled.
‘Did the durability drop a little?’
But the reload was complete.
‘What’s next?’
The location of the monster was not displayed on the map, but the terrain and features were sufficiently familiar.
‘Now, we’re in the center of the village. A big tree would appear.’
They had to go around two corners to get here, and if that was the case…
Leeha rolled up his map again and started running.
“Haa, haa. This dog… Where did he go?”
“Huu, just now, huu–, I heard a sound from here.”
“This is driving me crazy. How could he run away so well? He seems to know the way.”
The Rising Sun guild members paused to replenish their stamina.
A kobold’s house was smaller than a human’s house, but it was still a house.
The human eye could not see beyond its roof.
“There’s not many more kobolds left. If they keep coming out, it might get really hard.”
“Huu, huuu–, I think we’ve hunted most of them now, right? There’s no more coming. By the way, where did that bastard go?”
“Didn’t he go inside the iron mine?”
“No way. How did he get in there? We can’t even get in… Where the hell did he hide?”
They could not find any traces of the musketeer.
“What about Tikal-nim?”
“… He is following the kobold corpses. Almost everyone is here.”
“Phew, haven’t we played hide and seek in this place for 20 minutes already?”
“I don’t know. What should we do about this?”
They were more annoyed that they had to catch him to contribute.
It took two to three minutes to run. And their target just kept running, without any clear goal.
“Ah, if I knew this would happen, I should have just hunted some lizard bastards. I heard they at least drop an A+ grade and S+ at most.”
“I know, right? I shouldn’t have followed Tikal hyung-nim.”
“Phew, I also gave up on hunting the giant that drops A-grade cape. I came here because I liked the Brown Bear’s more than the eagle’s, but I think I made the wrong choice. We encountered a lot of trouble at the same time. Something big will happen as usual.”
The Rising Sun guild was quite large.
There were so many people that it could be said that there was no place in a low to a mid-level hunting ground in the Fibiel Kingdom that did not have a Rising Sun guild member in it.
They have various information systems, a large number of people, money, and power.
In other words, there was a continuous flow of information for low to mid-level users who picked up good items, and if there were such information, they would unconditionally create a team to extort money or items.
It was also encouraged to use violence directly, so people who suffered from the Rising Sun guild wanted to join them and wear their armbands, instead of getting revenge against such a huge guild.
“What are you bastards talking about?”
“T-Tikal hyung-nim!”
It was the worst timing for the guild members, as Tikal arrived when they were talking about him behind his back. .com
“Haa, are you complaining about following me? Are you dissatisfied?”
“No, sir.”
The guild members bowed their heads, but Tikal’s expression became even more distorted.
“It was all like that back then. You bastards, did you think that I got to where I am just by playing? I have been contributing steadily to our guild since I was level 20, to get to where I am now!”
“Yes.”
“Anyway, you young bastards these days don’t want to suffer. It’s all about money and profit for you to move. When I was your age, hah! Effort! Service! Solidarity! Devotion! It was natural. Where did you get the arrogance…”
Everybody knew that it was not true.
Tikal was a primary example of a person who bought gold with cash, gave it to the guild master, and wore the armband.
“Even at my company, a lot of newbies sneak away because they cannot handle the pressure, but it’s the same in-game as well? If you are an adult, you walk it off. If your senior is there, you stick with them. Cheeky bastards. You should do your work properly…”
Swearing and anger continuously poured out.
Tikal’s anger towards his corporate life also spread to the guild members.
“No, do you bastards think this is unfair? It’s not all about you. When an adult speaks, you only need to listen and answer yes.”
“Why aren’t you answering? Hey!”
Tikal shouted. The Rising Sun guild members, who were full of irritation, did not open their mouths as if in protest.
There was only one person who opened his mouth.
“No, you bastard. It’s really too much.”
Leeha’s hands and mouth showed his anger.
Taaang—!
“K-kuuwak!!! My-my leg!”
“H-hyung-nim!”
“Ah, aaah. My leg!”
Tikal grabbed his thigh and rolled over. If the pain was this serious, the assimilation rate should be more than 40%.
‘That’s too dramatic. I am not a hero of justice… but, that’s just too much.’
Leeha’s voice was heard from on top of the tree.
He was less than 25m away from where the Rising Sun guild members were. There was no way they would not hear and see the gunshot and smoke.
But, he could not stand it.
It was not like Leeha did not have any training. However, he only encountered someone like Tikal on the internet, but he didn’t really think it was real.
Because he was trying to treat people like slaves.
He was going to hide and wait, but Tikal’s words completely turned Leeha’s insides, so it must be said that Tikal was atrocious. Because there are no human beings that could treat people like that.
“It’s him, it’s the gunman!”
“Ha Leeha! That bastard’s name is Ha Leeha! Guild announcement, Musketeer Ha Leeha! In the future, we will be targeting that bastard.”
Tikal grabbed his thigh and rolled around, screaming. Was it better if he was shot in the head? The problem was, he was shot in the leg, all to inflict pain.
If he died in one shot, he wouldn’t have even seen the system message on who his attacker was.
“Encircle him! What are you doing!”
“I-I understand!”
The Rising Sun guild members ran to the tree on which Leeha was located.
Climbing the tree was scary, but if they surround it, their target will have to come down eventually.
It was impossible to log out during battle…
Leeha quickly finished reloading. His reload time was 53 seconds even when he was on top of a tree.
There were two tankers and two melee dealers surrounding the tree.
Petal Kim was perplexed as he saw Tikal’s gunshot wound.
‘There are six of us remaining. If he shot once, how long would the reload time be? 30 seconds? Will it take 40 seconds?’
Even the Rising Sun guild members knew that it takes a minute to reload.
Leeha was currently aiming at them, but once he shot, they wouldn’t miss the opportunity to catch him during his reload time.
