Arcane Sniper [Matan’s Shooter] - Chapter 459

Shwaaaaaa…

It was then that Jelapong’s fluffy body wrapped around Leeha and the little boy. After that, the little boy’s hands and toenails suffered a little more.

The child carrying Lee Ha, whose hands and feet were wrapped in gelafong, stopped at a point 35 meters above the ground, about 20 meters further down.

If we look at the top of the redwood as a standard, more than 60 meters were washed away.

[Mmmmmmmmm….]

“Kid! are you okay?”

“Cut ….

“Wait a minute, the potion-”

The kid was crying and hanging around.

Even though he wasn’t transformed into a brown bear, it was so hot that smoke was rising from his fingernails.

Leeha quickly rummaged through his bag and stuffed the stamina potion into the kid’s mouth, then sprayed it on his hands and toenails.

Shwaaaaagh!

It was then that Rubini appeared next to Lee Ha, with a flash of light purple. She appeared, barely able to step on a tree branch, and immediately held out her hand towards Leeha.

“Leeha!”

“Rubini! Why didn’t you go?”

Kyaaa───────────!

“―Wook?!” “Ouch!”

“Kuuuuuuu!”

[Mmmm….]

Just as Leeha was about to take her hand in joy, a roar rang out loud enough to shake the leaves of the entire redwood tree.

A scream so trembling that the child instinctively cries out.

It wasn’t a scream of pain.

This guy, le───── how dare me, how dare──!

It was a cry filled with so much anger that it couldn’t contain even a single drop of anger.

“Hooded…”

“Yes. “It seems like the memories of when my mind was contaminated are still alive.”

Roubini looked up at the sky with concern, but Lee Ha was rather relieved.

He must be angry like that because he remembers what he did.

In that case, it was obvious what attitude Hudid would take towards Leeha, Roubini, and Ibex.

When the entire group of Leeha, including the kid, stood on the ground, Hooded and other black-crowned cranes Paleo began to come down near Leeha, flapping their wings.

There was no change in appearance.

Hooded still has a pitch black body with red dots, hair as blue as a will-o’-the-wisps, and only one leg.

“…Ah, do you feel at ease?”

“yes?”

“Now that I think about it, I…”

Didn’t I blow off one of the few toes on my only leg?

Lee Ha was worried for a moment as to whether it was really safe. Anyway, I couldn’t help but tell you about this precious situation.

With the last words that Hooded and Black Crane might try to kill him(?), Leeha whispered to his colleagues who were imprisoned in Red Goat Paleo’s prison.

―Mission complete! We need to build a mana relay tower as soon as we get back, so get ready!

“Wook!”

“Why are you doing this?”

“Oh, no. “There were so many whispers all of a sudden.”

Leeha covered his ears and rummaged for a moment.

Flutter────── Flutter──────!

Meanwhile, Paleo cranes had completely surrounded Leeha and Roubini, and Hooded was slowly landing in the middle of them.

Lee Ha didn’t know whether the reason he was stroking the kid’s back was because he was anxious or because he felt sorry for the kid.

Probably both.

“Are you human?”

“That’s right. They are a race that comes from another continent across the sea and wants to deal with the Bluebeards. “I came at the request of Ibex.”

Hooded was huge.

Every time the beak cracks and opens, Leeha flinches.

Once again, it felt reckless to put that huge beak under one’s armpit and use gelapong to block the beak and stick to it.

It was around that time that Roubini, who was hiding behind Leeha, gained strength.

“Oh, um, I’m a little sorry about your toe, but is there any way for it to grow back or anything like that? “If it’s okay with you, we have a great healer. Would you like me to introduce you to him?”

Of course, it was clear that Roubini’s intention to force his hands was to prevent the following gibberish.

Hooded’s beak opened wide. What followed was almost like laughter.

* * *

Shuuuuu─────────!

The wind shook Leeha and Roubini’s hair. As Roubini’s body flinched, Leeha smiled and spoke to her.

“Are you okay?”

“This is my first time doing something like this…”

“It’s okay to relax. “Just think of it as if you were on a light plane.”

“Leeha, I guess you’re familiar with it?”

“Well, I think it’s better than when I was caught by the eagle’s paws, Jing Geng Geng. Well, Bailippus’s back definitely felt more stable. Ah, more than anything, compared to when I was hanging by the ‘beak’ earlier, it is heaven now.”

When Lee Ha said with a smile, Rubini made a puzzled expression for a moment.

Of course, since Leeha couldn’t see her eyes, I could only guess from the movements of the corners of her mouth.

“How dare you talk about something behind the back of a guardian spirit, hex – no, ‘human’!”

“Oh, it’s nothing!”

Lee Ha answered loudly.

There were Paleo people around me who still looked at Leeha and Roubini with disapproval, but even Leeha thought it was worth it.

‘It’s no wonder they’re sitting on the back of their guardian deity.’

Paleo’s older brother, the black-crowned crane, flew towards Leeha and Rubini, who were sitting on Hooded’s back, shouted, and then walked away again, and Leeha pouted her mouth.

“I got the achievement and am sure my intimacy is 100%, but I’m still a bit picky.”

“Hehe, it must mean that the ‘guardian spirit’ is that important to them. Oh, now that I think about it, I couldn’t even say thank you.”

“thanks?”

“Quest. I also went up one level. “I also got an achievement.”

“iced coffee! You won! thank god. Hehe, that’s right. “We actually became the first achievement earners in this ‘new continent.’”

Roubini sounded a bit sorry, but Lee Ha didn’t care.

Ultimately, it was Lee Ha who removed Bluebeard’s hat, but Roubini’s role in helping him get there and remove it was also no small one.

〈Achievement: Redwood Crane (A-)〉

Congratulations!

You have succeeded in gaining complete intimacy with the spirit being of the continent of Erica, Hooded and his Paleos. Even on the continent of Erica, where there is little exchange between Paleo and Paleo, your great achievements and name in bringing about faith in spirits will be known.

Effect: Strength +6, Dexterity +26, Erika Continent common reputation +40

and below laughed while looking at the achievement window. Roubini would have been recorded as the ‘second registrant’.

‘Should we say that it is natural that the ‘common reputation of the continent’ that had been building up so far was split into two as the continent of Erica opened?…’

This means that the continent of Erica needs its own reputation.

The common reputation of close to 9,000 that Leeha had built up on the existing continent would have no effect here.

However, as long as there were primitive Paleo people who did not even know the concept of ‘human’, this was natural.

Although it was a reward for an A-level achievement, it was absurd that the New World reputation was only 20 points, but there was also a hint in the achievement description.

‘There is little interaction between Paleo people. This means that no matter how famous you are in one place, it is difficult for that name to spread to other places. I had heard about it from Ibex, but I guess it means that there are actually more spirit creatures and more Paleos all over the continent of Erica.’

The naming structure of future achievements will also be obvious.

Because it was a combination of the ‘local name’ of the New World where spirit creatures and paleos live and the ‘animal base’ of spirit creatures and paleos.

‘ah! Now that I think about it, the level is also – the character window!’

Name: Leeha / Race: Human

Occupation: Musketeer / Level: 190 (0%)

Title: Fearless / Achievement: 113

HP: 6,360 (4,452)

MP: 1,550

Stats: Strength 373 (+288)

Agility 2,959 (+1,017) )

Intelligence 160 (+109)

Stamina 228 (+135)

Spirit 65 (+55)

Remaining stat points: 40

‘Hehehe…. It’s finally 190.’

There are only 10 left to achieve level 200. Upon arriving in the New Continent, I went up a whopping 6 levels, going from 189 to completing the previous quest and finally reaching 190.

Of course, even in the meantime, should I say that Lee Ha’s play, which leaves the stats alone, is still immature or full of confidence?

‘As the 10-level unit changed, I also gained 5 bonus points… Well, there’s nothing to see. ‘All agile!’

Below, points were invested in agility. As 40 points were added to 2,959, the corners of Lee Ha’s mouth twitched and went up.

“Why are you smiling?”

“No, hehehehehehehehehe….”

Now the agility has reached a whopping 2,999! How absurd would it be if Roubini or other users found out about this?

If you have a stat level of 3,000, it is no longer a matter of whether you are an expert or not. The stats are high enough to determine whether you are a ranker or not.

But the target was a user who was only level 190!

“What’s so funny?”

“Ah, Mr. Hooded.”

“We’ll be arriving soon, so get ready. “Because I have a lot to talk about with the ibex.”

“of course. If the red goat Paleos see me and Mr. Roubini riding on Mr. Hooded’s back—”

“Are you riding?”

Hooded’s voice subsided.

After all, wasn’t it unpleasant to burn a human being? Lee Ha hastily corrected his words.

“Oh, no, get on it – not get on it -”

“If you don’t want to get burned to death, just keep your face quiet.”

“yep!”

Grumble!

Flames rose from Hooded’s head. I was able to once again realize the abilities of spirit creatures.

‘He who starts fire: Hooded… and he who prevents fire: I said Ibex.’

What other abilities do other spirit creatures and Paleo have?

“Black Crane! “The goats found us!”

“ah! “I’ll wave my hand, just for a moment—”

When Paleo’s older brother, the black-crowned crane, reported, Leeha grabbed Hooded’s back fur and crawled away.

Leeha sticks his face out from behind the hooded neck and waves his arms loudly.

Every time Hooded’s fur was pinched, Hooded’s eyebrows twitched, and only Rubini knew that the eldest black crane Paleo was glaring at Leeha and Rubini as if they were going to kill him.

“The goat is going down the tree! “No signs of attack!”

“good. “We are also ready for landing.”

“Black Crane!”

Shuuuuu……!

The altitude of the hooded and black-crowned paleos was gradually decreasing.

With Redwood’s spirit meeting approaching in two months, Leeha was busy looking for a candidate site for the construction of the Mana Relay Tower.

* * *

Ibex and Paleo red goats were already gathered in the village square.

It was their natural behavior to climb up in various places in the redwoods so that they could subdue Paleo cranes at any time if they made a fuss.

In a near-miss situation, Lee Ha changed the magazine of the Black Beth. If something happens, you may have to move again.

Shuuuu…!

Finally, Hooded’s single leg touched the ground.

Leeha and Roubini quickly jumped off his back.

Paleo cranes also landed one by one next to Hooded and had a snowball fight with Paleo red goats around them.

“Ibex.”

“Hooded.”

The eyes of the two spirits intertwined in the air. Lee Ha could once again feel the enormity and intimidation of the spirit creature.

‘It’s big. If both of them use their skills from this distance, it’ll be a complete mess.’

Hooded and Ibex said nothing after that. Grumbling! It was then that a fire lit in Hooded’s head.

Pushuuuu…!

But the fire went out soon after. It was immediately after a light flashed from the ibex’s horn.

The two spirits showed off their respective skills!

Gulp, someone swallowed.

But there was nothing to worry about. This is because Hooded bowed his head towards Ibex while seeing his skills.

“Forgive me.”

Hooded’s long neck, standing on one leg, bowed towards the ground. Paleo, the black cranes that regarded him as their guardian, flinched.
