Matan's Shooter

Chapter 93

Syndergaard was confused but the two NPCs’ guess was natural. Because there was no other user in the Eastern Palace, the person to suspect would be the closest outlander.

‘Also…… it’s also natural to think like this. Now what? How do I refute that?’

In a brief moment, thousands of ideas entered Leeha’s mind.

Will I get caught? Should I ask for evidence? Should I just run away? No, that’s impossible. I have to lie.

I have to fool all these NPCs. Leeha managed his facial expression.

Even with just one wrong twitch of his face would be dangerous.

“What does that mean-”

“No, it can’t be.”

“Yes?”

It wasn’t Leeha who made a firm voice. Syndergaard’s expression hardened.

“It was true that I came here because of the emergency, but I can’t make an arrest without evidence. Not to mention, this person has a cooperation with the Sacred Knights. He was the one who succeeded in sniping the Kobold Chieftain Hijuit-Ka just recently.”

“W-what do you mean by that? He’s still the most suspicious person to enter the Royal Archives-”

“It is impossible to make an arrest just because of some suspicion, Chief Clark. Although it is possible to conduct surveillance and search in an emergency, keep in mind that arrest and seizure is impossible. Moreover, it is even more unpleasant to be suspicious of Leeha-ssi, a comrade of the Sacred Knights and my personal friend.”

Leeha almost cried tears of joy from Syndergaard’s words.

Of course, there was also a feeling of guilt. He didn’t expect Syndergaard to defend him!

“Cough……. I see. I’ll have to look for evidence. By the way, if you sniped the Kobold Chieftain, are you a musketeer?”

“Yes. That’s right. Should I be suspected because I was in the Royal Palace? As Sir Syndergaard just said, I-”

“I’m sure you know Browless.”

“- was the one who managed to catch… Hijuit-Ka!”

Hearing Clark’s words, Leeha forced himself to finish his sentence. He pretended not to hear

Browless’s name. contemporary romance

“Good. It should be fine, you won’t be able to take the record anyway. I’ll have to go and check the records one by one. If he really was the intruder in the Royal Archives, you will be responsible for letting him go. I will also hold the Sacred Knights accountable.”

“I understand, Chief Clark. Now, shall we go, Ha Leeha-ssi?”

“Ah, yes. Thank you.”

Clark and Lively looked at Leeha, but Leeha naturally turned his back on them.

Leaving behind the guards of the Royal Palace, Leeha and Sir Syndergaard went out of the Palace Garden.

“I was almost accused of being the culprit. Thank you, Sir Syndergaard.”

Step, step. Leeha thought about the quest while stepping on the grass.

‘I was caught by a Sacred Knight…… but it would only be a failure if I get caught by the guards of the Royal Palace.’

So does that mean it would be fine if it’s a Sacred Knight? Leeha barely suppressed the laughter that was about to burst out of his mouth.

“It was nothing. Keepers are always sensitive and thorny, so be careful. By the way, why did you come to the Royal Palace?”

“Ah, that-”

Wondering what to say, Leeha saw another person walking through the darkness on the west side of the palace.

“Sir Syndergaard.”

“Browless-nim.”

A person saluted to the Sacred Knight and approached.

“I had to meet someone for a while. In the meantime, my disciple lost his way, so I came to pick him up.”

And he called Leeha his disciple.

Leeha rolled his eyes and looked at Browless.

Browless smiled under his hooded hat.

“I see. I’ve been wanting to meet and talk to Ha Leeha-ssi for a long time. It’s unfortunate.”

“We can meet again next time. Haha, thank you for today, Sir Syndergaard. ”

“You’re welcome. I would like to ask you to continue doing your best for the Fibiel Kingdom. Well then.”

After Syndergaard disappeared, Leeha and Browless left without saying anything.

“Have you met Lotzak?”

“No, they said he wasn’t there. However, there was no way the Chief Magician can leave the palace. He is avoiding me.”

“Hmm.”

Listening to Browless’s words, Leeha remembered the conversation between Clark and Lively earlier.

There’s definitely something to contend with.

“Did you succeed?”

Leeha just laughed.

It was after they passed the game that the two high-fived.

“You have it.”

“That’s right.”

Leeha nodded while checking on the quest window.

It certainly did not appear to be a failure. “It contains testimonies related to the disappearance of Mr. Brown and Ms. Elizabeth.”

Leeha quickly recorded things as soon as he heard Lively’s footsteps. Although the time was

tight and mistakes were made, the important details were definitely included.

Browless took the item and played it.

Click.

Late at nigh, on one side of the darkened wall of the director’s room, the reports that Leeha recorded were reflected.

The time of the report and the ones who reported are different.

However, with only the records of the oral report, Leeha could outline the two people’s actions.

It should be the same with Browless.

The report was tagged as [Top Secret], followed by the contents of the report as well as the reporter’s signature.

-At 21:00, we found two people leaving the barracks and heading to the Demon King’s army. Hearing the reporter’s call to stop, they fired at the reporter instead. (Thigh wound, unable to fight.)

-The next day, at 08:00. The two were found 20km away from the barracks. Since they had never been instructed to do a cooperative operation they approached and fired randomly. After being shot, I heard cries and apologies, but I couldn’t pursue them. (Gunshot wounds on the upper arm, shoulder, and side, unable to fight.)

-10:00. Two people fired at the party platoon that was having a skirmish with the Demon King army. They were crying and did not stop firing. (The entire platoon was neutralized, unable to fight.)

-13:00. Ms. Elizabeth wrapped her stomach and sat on the floor. In accordance with the order to report Mr. Brown and Ms. Elizabeth if they are found, he tried to report but his knees were pierced by Mr. Brown. (Leg amputated, unable to fight.)

The report was terrible.

None of the reporters who found the two returned without any injuries.

Since then, no report came for a long time.

It was noted that the monsters did not attack as the two passed by. The two people along with some monsters also killed this and that.

The records of the Royal Archives had set its opinion in a certain direction.

It was clear that the two of them had joined the Demon King’s army.

-23:00, the two arrived at the 67th regiment, who had not yet heard the order to capture Mr. and Mrs. Brown. Leaving the barracks after receiving basic supplies. Immediately after leaving, an order came from the headquarters ….

Leeha’s eyes were drawn to the end of the report instead of the ones that are reflected on the wall. The name of the reporters was familiar to Leeha.

‘Lepanto……

Did Lepanto go after them, after finding it out later? The reports continued afterward.

– Reports followed, but they failed to capture them. The agents fled to the Demon King’s Army with another agent(presumed to be a dark elf). The agents said to them that they should not look after them and that they should be careful of Lotzak( currently the 3rd Corps of the Allied Forces). It was believed to be a deceptive operation to lower the morale of allies. (Disabled left arm function due to the aftermath of the battle. There is a chance of amputation. Note on the battle.)

Beware of Lotzak?

Mr. and Mrs. Brown said that?

Dizzying thoughts floated around Leeha’s head. Brown and Elizabeth warned Lepanto.

Leeha thought that Lotzak was promoted was because he covered up the fact that the two of them left.

But what about the warning? They have not left yet.

But why did they tell him to be careful?

‘And did Lepanto go to Lotzak and report to him after hearing that? It would have been right to judge that it was a deception operation…… He lost more than half of his life due to memory control magic.’

Even though the Three Musketeers are legends, at a point of time where they were already defined as ‘enemies’, they wouldn’t have even thought of trusting their words and doubt Lotzak work.

‘Besides, the arm…… his arm was cut off because of those two.’

So, after getting back his memory, he may have gritted his teeth and chased after the two of them.

– Additional testimony, the result of Ms. Elizabeth’s medical examination before the fragment crushing operation. There was even a warning to be careful before proceeding with the operation.

Uwaah!”

Leeha shouted without realizing it. Pregnant? Does this mean that she participated in the war against the demons while pregnant?

‘And with that body…… She had great achievements……

And the fact that those who went after the have been disabled ……’

While they were only one male musketeer and one female musketeer was unbelievable.

Bang-!

‘Hmm?’

With an unfamiliar sound, Leeha realized that he wasn’t watching alone.

They were amazing records, so he was looking at them with interest…… there was someone else?

What about the feelings of the Musketeer that was one of the ‘Three Musketeers’ along with them? When he heard Leeha say that the two of them betrayed humanity, didn’t director Browless point a gun into his mouth?

‘Is it another rampage……?’

Fortunately, he didn’t move.

There was only a stream of blood running down the side of his lips.

“Why…… why didn’t you say anything…?”

The last member of the Three Musketeers, whose teeth were stained red, Rapid fire Browless, put his head down the desk.

“Director-nim……

How are you feeling? Are you feeling betrayed? Despair? Anger towards your comrades?

“Isn’t it funny?”

“Yes?”

“The Three Musketeers…… The three of us were together for a long time. I didn’t even know she was pregnant.”

“B-but…… Maybe Ms. Elizabeth didn’t know.”

“They didn’t say anything to me. Those two… What the hell did they think of me?”

Browless stared blankly into the air. It looked like he had been abandoned.

“On the other hand, now I…… I feel relieved.”

“Re……lieved?”

“I even think that it’s fortunate that they are alive. Those two betrayed humanity? Even when I saw a record of them shooting their allies! Ha! I can’t believe I am the director of the academy……

“Something…… Something must have happened. The words to be careful of Lotzak must have come from something……”

That was the most suspicious thing right now.

The person Brown and Elizabeth warned Lepanto about. After all, he was the person who cast the spell directly on Lepanto.

Only one line from a long report.

It was so annoying that it was only mentioned once.

“Right, there must be something else. There should be more.”

Browless leaned back on the chair and slumped down.

Leeha felt sorry for Browless who looked like a person who has completely lost his motivation.

It seemed to mean that it didn’t matter now whether there was more or not.
