Browless raised his cup of coffee again. Gulp, Leeha didn’t see him licking his lips.
“Thanks to you, I was able to establish the academy.”
“Yes? What…?”
“Nothing, it’s already done. Right. If you already know, there’s nothing to explain anymore.”
Browless put down his mug.
A notification window appeared in front of Leeha.

– Would you like to accept?
‘Hmm? Huh?’
What’s this? Leeha could not help but panic while reading the quest description.
‘I did not even use the bargaining skill, so why did it change? Besides, hunting Kobolds?’
He knew about Kobolds.
They are usually hunted around level 30. They were a group of monsters living near the mining area, in the western part of the capital, Aelstock.
And he wanted a level 26 user to go there?
There was no way that NPCs could not see a user’s level. Nor would it be impossible to gauge the level of monsters.
Sending a level 26 musketeer to a level 30 hunting ground, and preventing party play and death.
And to top it all, he would also fail the quest when he reached level 30, which was the original hunting level?
This meant he had to catch it before level 29… In other words, he needed to complete the quest early.
‘This? What is [Browless’s Expectation]?’
It was obviously a different quest. At a glance, Leeha could feel that Browless had started to believe in him.
‘Besides, there are signs that this would be something big…’
Browless looked at the smilingLeeha.
“I don’t think that it is difficult. It’s exactly as you said kid, you need to snipe. You only need to blow the chieftain’s head. You don’t even need to bring any evidence. When the chieftain dies, the Sacred Knights will know right away.”
“How will the Sacred Knights know when the chieftain is dead?”
“It’s because I’m watching.”
“Ah, yes. You’re watching. That’s really helpful.”
‘It should be finished once I blow the chief’s head off…
It’s an odd quest, to say the least.
Should I accept it?’
It was not an easy quest. It was definitely dangerous. Quite dangerous at that.
Musketeers do not have an easy time hunting alone. It was a quest that required hunting a higher-level monster. But he was greedy.
[Browless’s expectations]?
Even though he didn’t know what it was, he felt that “something” resonated in his mind.
There were only a few musketeers.
And among them, only three people were able to hit a target 100m away. This is a difficult quest.
It was a quest that screamed suspicious and enticing at the same time.
‘Is it the next generation of Three Musketeers? I have never heard of such a story. Something great might come out. If so… It would be worth it, right?’
‘Activate Bargaining skill.’
[Bargaining skill activated.]
[The chance of persuading the target is increased by 23%.]
“I know that the Kobolds are not something that I can handle right now.”
“Right.”
“Then, why did you give me that task?”
Leeha cleverly led the conversation.
The things he learned in the military began to shine here, and he used it to understand the mission better.
How much would the reward be? Will the intimacy increase even more?
These questions were of no help.
Knowing the reason why the quest was given.
In order to understand the nature of the quest.
“Isn’t it interesting?”
Browless gave a simple.
“Yes? Interesting?”
“You just have to decide whether to accept it or not.”
[Failed to persuade the target.]
“Ah…”
I couldn’t even check that much? He’d rather ask for money!
‘Activate Bargaining skill.’
[You can’t retry to bargain on a failed target.]
‘Damn it!’
He was not able to trigger it again. However, he did not worry about it too much.
It was something he had to do anyway. And he had the destructive power of one shot.
‘As long as I can secure the distance, and have a good vantage point on the chieftain, I could do it in one try.’
Snipers needed to identify the terrain and secure an escape route.
He did not have any experience in real life, but he had been training at it incessantly. Wasn’t it just a boring repetition?
“I will do it .”
“Good, now go.”
“Yes.”
Leeha grabbed his musket and headed out.
“Don’t expect too much.”
However, Leeha did not hear Browless’s words.
“Well… Let’s do it.”
Once Leeha accepted the quest, he left.
‘Should I go straight to the Kobold dungeon?’
Leeha shook his head. Fortunately or unfortunately, the conditions of the quest were simple.
As long as he did not get to level 30, the quest would not fail.
‘It means I can get to level 29 with my experience almost full and catch it. I don’t need to rush.’
He did not need to rush now.
Most of all, he was extremely curious about Browless, that he could not stand it.
‘I understand that he is the director of the Academy, but what does he do?’ He heard from Candle Castle’s Guard Captain Jiat. It was the best musketeer academy on the continent, where the strongest people resided.
Of course, since they are from the same kingdom, it did not have that much credibility, but in any case, the head of each academy should have been recognized as a talented person who had spread their name in each country. Leeha knew a faster way than searching.
– Kijeong-ah.
His cousin, Kijeong, a level 198 Templar. He should know his story more than anyone else.
-Kijeong?
His whispers were being delivered, but he did not get any response. If he was logged out, the whisper wouldn’t go through at all. What was happening?
‘Is he hunting…?’
Leeha suddenly remembered his friend’s list. He would be able to check whether he was connected or not.
‘What? He is connected. Is he busy?’
Leeha confirmed Kijeong’s connection status. Tiwi Canyon. There was also a person next to him.
Byeolcho’s Guild Master, ‘Sage’ Hyein.
Kuroninja Sasuke wore black leather clothes. Tiwi Canyon.
The Highlander Tale, who was a 5th Dan Kumdo practitioner, was also there.
‘Byeolcho guild members together, are they having a meeting? Kek. Or maybe they are party hunting.’
That was the joy of having a guild. They are having a meeting and they ignore the whispers.
Then, he suddenly stopped walking.
Leeha had added a total of 8 friends in total. Kijeong and 3 from Byeolcho Guild. Biyemi and Jin Gunggong, Ram Hwajeong and Ram Hwayeon.
They were also at Tiwi Canyon.
“We did it! The Ram sisters are on the run! They are entering Tiwi Canyon!”
“Encircle them! The Dragon Knights are coming soon! Sasuke! Send out forces to the escape route! Send five parties made of dealers!”
Hyein sent out orders as soon as he heard the report.
Okay. Shunpo!”
Kuroninja Sasuke disappeared in an instant.
A ninja’s skill that lets the user step on space rather than on the ground had been activated. Hyein did not stop giving orders even after Sasuke disappeared.
“Healers cast haste on the Tankers, Tankers charge! Tale-hyung, follow us as well!”
“Understood. Quick Charging.”
Power entered Tale’s hand which was holding a two-handed sword.
As soon as he activated his skill, Highlander Tale began to move forward, he felt his body going ahead before he could even think of it.
“Haste!”
“Quicken!”
Haak-!
Green light appeared, and the heavily armored knights in front sped up their steps.
They wore armor, helmet, and even a shield that was heavy enough to dig into the soil with every step they took. However, their movements under the effect of movement increasing buffs were extremely light.
“They will not escape from Tiwi Canyon! If by any chance they do, Sasuke will stop them, so drive them into the corner! Kay! Lead the tankers!”
“Understood!”
Kijeong responded to Hyein’s command. Templar Kijeong led the tankers and the Byeolcho guild members rushed out.
There were around thirty people.
‘This time…’
Everyone from Byeolcho Guild at a certain level was called. Additionally, in a little while, the alliance will also send reinforcements.
‘There are forty of us, ten from Dragon Knights, and ten from Seomgwang. This should be enough. No matter how much they try, Ram Hwajeong would not be able to escape through the siege of this many people!’
The most important thing was to guard against teleportation.
If they used a scroll or teleport to tear through space and run away, there was no way to follow them.
If they were a normal wizard.
“I need two tankers to guard me!”
“Yes, Shield Serving!”
“Protect!”
Two men quickly approached and surrounded Hyein. One cannot be too careful.
‘Although it’s only the Rambitches right now, I need to be vigilant.’
Two people, Ram Hwayeon and Ram Hwajeong, who helped her level up, were driven into the corner.
However, they also led a guild. Maybe people from that guild are already coming.
‘I won’t have much time.’
Hyein knew the skills of their guild.
If three to four talented people came, there was a high chance that the opportunity that they had difficulty seizing would be wasted
Also, it was difficult to predict when they would arrive, so one should be prepared. There was a good chance of getting ambushed after casting magic clumsily.
