Matan’s Shooter

ED:

“Jachung, call Feng.”

“……Are you talking about the second young master?”

“That’s right.”

Out of the 4 sons and 3 daughters of the head of Ram Long group he was the 2nd child. Ram Feng.

The Ram Long group’s path to royalty, which made the children’s education survival of the fittest, was a situation which made the siblings recognize each other as rivals and enemies.

In other words, except for Ram Hwajung, who had no interest in business, all of Ram Hwayeon’s siblings were not on good terms with her.

Even in the midst of this, the second child, Ram Feng, who was two years younger than the first child, Ram Hwayeon, was the only sibling with a neutral attittude with her, excluding Ram Hwajung.

Feng: Hao! What’s up? Why did my dear noona call?

“Isn’t Dr. Heinrich the guy you brought from a German hospital a while ago?”

Feng: Huh? What are you talking about all of a sudden? You didn’t even say hello?

“Is there another person with the last name Heinrich in Germany with a world-renowned name who can do a surgery on nerves and spine, which costs 2 billion won?”

Feng: ……There’s none. It was so hard to bring him and his staff. Isn’t that enough to say that you’ve already done your research?

The reason for Ram Hwayeon’s frown after listening to Leeha’s story was not because she thought he was ugly for being disabled.

It was because the words uttered by Leeha were words she had heard at the executive meeting.

‘No way…… director-nim……’

Jachung, who sat across Ram Hwayeon, had a hard time managing his expression.

Being neutral didn’t mean being friendly. It just meant that they were close enough to make a deal.

In other words, whenever Ram Hwayeon asked for something, she would need to listen to Feng’s request.

She had to give something!

‘No, it wouldn’t be a losing deal if we could make Ha Leeha-nim completely ours- I really want to say that-’

Jachung’s expectations mixed with worries became reality with Ram Hwayeon’s next words.

“Get me a schedule with Dr. Heinrich. For a paraplegic patient. They have no sensation below the waist and cannot move. Let’s do a thorough examination at the hospital after you schedule it.”

Feng: Pfft! Didn’t I just tell you that I had a hard time getting him? It is no exaggeration to say that he is currently the busiest person in the group’s hospital! Not only medical treatment, but also research. In addition, he has to interact with the doctors from mainland hospital. I’m trying to manage Heinrich not at the company level, but at the party level, no matter how much you say-

“Feng.”

Feng: W-what?

“First and foremost. Hold it. Let’s talk in person.”

Feng: Noo-Noona-. 

Ram Hwayeon hung up the phone.

If Ram Hwayeon was in charge of the discovery of new businesses in the group, Feng was in charge of the medical field.

“Jachung.”

“Yes, director-nim.”

“Look for anything that Feng could ask, it there are problems in the medical field of the group, or agenda from the board meeting, investigate every thing. Before we arrive in Hong Kong.”

In terms of current position in the group, Ram Hwayeon was a few steps ahead of Feng.

Ram Hwayeon, who took the lead in the battle for succession, could never just reach out first.

Ram Hwayeon knew that as well.

“Understood.”

Without even looking at Jachung, who lowered her head, Ram Hwayeon rested on her chin and looked out the window.

“……‘Shin Nara’……”

Hearing her words, her sister beside her spoke.

“She’s not a big deal, unni.”

Ram Hwajung’s nose flushed.

“She’s really not a big deal, right?”

***

Kwak-!

Shin Nara took a tteokbokki with her chopsticks without looking at the table.

It was just getting a tteokbokki, but Kijung admired such effortless movement for a moment.

“I don’t know what you’re thinking, but anyway, it was really a  meeting to ‘return a favor’. Nara-ssi also knows what happened to the city I was appointed as the lord.”

“That’s right, Nara. It’s a natural human interaction! See? I told you it wasn’t a big deal, you didn’t have to come out and check.”

After the Ram sisters left, Leeha explained with sincerity. Without understanding exactly why he had to explain.

As soon as Bobae supported Leeha, Shin Nara’s momentum significantly reduced compared to that at the beginning.

“Okay. I know you can’t act like such a naughty wolf-”

“What?”

“Ah, no, anyway! So anyway.”

What was it? Anyway, seeing Shin Nara stuttering in embarassment, Leeha was able to breath.

As the overall atmosphere calmed down a bit, she was finally able to ask Leeha what she was curious about.

“Then can I ask you something?”

Something that was on her mind since the beginning. The fact that he had a hunch but had no evidence.

“What is it?”

“How was Nara and Bobae find this place-”

“Wa, waaaaa-! That’s right! Did you all see that? At Middle Earth’s homepage! [Phase 3!]”

As soon as Leeha brought up the question, Bobae waved her hands and took out her smartphone.

How did they get here?

Because Bobae secretly communicated with Kijung!

It was true that the one who committed the crime was the most afraid. Fortunately, among the misfortunes, was that she succeeded in turning Leeha’s attention.

At the words ‘Phase 3’, 

Leeha and Kijung’s eyes widened.

“Phase 3?”

“Didn’t you know? Kijung ?”

“Ah, I didn’t. When is it?”

“Just before we left here, the community went wild and I looked it up, and there was something like this.”

Bobae quickly accessed Middle Earth’s homepage and pressed the newly updated notice to show them.

[The end is not the end. It will cross the 3’s limit.]

“The end…… isn’t the end?”

“The 3’s limit? What is it talking about?”

Leeha and Kijung tilted their heads. Out of the four, only Bobae, who was the first to hear the news, knew who could unravel the information she had picked up.

“Maybe Leeha-ssi could find out.”

“Me? Looking at this now, I don’t even know-”

“The thing that comes out the most in the community is the ‘3’s limit’, the level 300 cap limit lifted!”

Shwaa-! Bobae shouted and pointed at Leeha.

“Ah…… you mean I should ask Alexander?”

“Yes. The phrase ‘The end is not the end’ is also true. The maximum level is no longer the maximum level.”

“Hmm, Alexander tends to keep quiet about things related to growth, so he probably won’t tell…… most importantly……”

Hearing Bobae’s words, Leeha was not satisfied.

‘That’s one thing…… It could be a secret. However, that can’t be everything.’

Didn’t he already experienced phase 2?

In a way that one sentence can be misconstrued, Middle Earth deceived and misled users to be mistaken.

‘I thought the national war was over, but in reality it wasn’t. If phase 2 is over now, it means that my prediction was  correct.’

Some kind of work related to the expedition to the new continent must have been completed.

In other words, Leeha could assume that Fernand reached a certain level of agreement with each 

country.

“Besides that, there was a lot of talk in the community. What is the limit of 3? And what does ‘the end is not the end’ mean-”

“We have to experience it to know anyway. You can never guess anything in Middle Earth. Isn’t that right, Leeha-ssi?”

Shin Nara cut off Bobae’s words as if asking what she was talking about.

“Huh? Yes. Yes. Because it’s a game that enjoys making things hard for

its user.”

When Leeha agreed to her words, the corner of Shin Nara’s mouth twitched.

“Leeha-ssi, do you have time?”

“If it’s time…… I do.”

“Since it became like this, play with us. You are fine with that right, Bobae?”

She took the lead in an instant.

The momentum to destroy everything when they arrived was replaced with joy.

Of course, because Kijung was next to Leeha, there was no way Bobae would refuse.

“Auntie! 2 tteokbokki and extra fries please! Do you also like tteokbokki, Kijung-ssi?”

“I like birthday tteokbokki instead of this kind of tteokkbokki.”

Kijung smiled and answered at Bobae’s lively question. Leeha and Nara both shook their heads after the two’s expression.

‘Really..’

‘What are they talking about…’

However, they couldn’t stop Bobae’s already energetic question.

“What is birthday tteokbokki?”

“In other words, it’s 5 tteokbokkis.”

There was a large 川 drawn in Leeha and Shin Nara’s foreheads. The tumultuous Saturday passed quickly.

Whaa—-!

Leeha lightly closed his eyes while watching the blue-green light created in front of his eyes.

It was because he could clearly see what this magic was used almost every time he logged on.

[Kyu!]

“How are you, Blaugrun-ssi?”

[Kyuu! Kyuu!]

Blaugrun fluttered and spun around Leeha’s head.

Even though it was a partnership, Blaugrun’s action was closer to the concept of a ‘pet’ that still needed protection made Leeha smile.

‘Come to think of it, I need to get some items from Blaugrun-ssi’s lair. Well, I am not in urgent need of money, I will put it on hold for now.’

Leeha was sure that he would be able to communicate with Blaugrun to some extent, but it was not satisfactory.

It would be much better to choose the items after being really able to converse in ‘human language’.

“Don’t really have to pick a really good one then?”

[Kyuu?]

Blaugrun, who couldn’t understand him, shook its head. It was then that a knock was heard from the door of Leeha’s room.

Lord-nim, it’s Peytor.

“Ah! Yes, Peytor-ssi, please come in.”

The city’s general manager NPC, in other words, the steward, came in front of Leeha with a bunch of documents again.

“This is a letter from the capital if Ezwen. Since it is an official document issued by the Vatican, there were instructions to disseminate the contents clearly and quickly under the authority of each lord.”

“Vatican? Give it to me.”

Riiiiip, and Leeha immediately received the letter and began examining it.

From the moment Leeha saw the Phase 3 update, he had guessed the contents written in the official letter.

“[Recruitment of members for the new continent expedition]……. The number of people is also limited.”

“It’s not confirmed yet, but-“

They had to go far, but they could not bring a large amount of people. They needed the ability to sail to the ocean and a ship to implement that ability, and consider the materials.

“Hmm. That’s right, because it’s not coastal waters.”

And the ocean wasn’t an ordinary ocean either. It’s easy for an ordinary ship to be damaged even with just a simple storm. Of course, they couldn’t bring a large number of people, so they had no choice but to go through a selection test.

‘The number of people that have been confirmed to come was seven. No, we have to exclude Bailephus, so it’s six.’

Members of the Demon King’s Army Subjugation Team were automatically given the right to participate.

Alexander, Lee Jiwon, Ram Hwajung, Kidd, Luger, and Leeha.

‘Those in the top 10 would certainly aim to participate. Still, it’s going to be difficult for those who were active on the side of the Demon King’s army to come.’

They have already been marked as enemies by the Vatican.

Leeha did not know that their position as the Demon King’s agents would have been lost after they died, but he could guess that their intimacy with the Vatican was negative.

They will not be involved.

‘Then, among the remaining rankers, there were Fei Wu, Petyr, Chiyou, Nara, and Bobae. 5.’

A few people were not listed in the official notice.

However, Leeha already knew that there would not be many.

‘What if we took out 5 more seats in addition to the 6 that had already been confirmed? I heard that Kijung wants to come too. Hmmm……. I can’t put him in, but I have to help him.’

Leeha opened his bag, flipped through his items, and looked at his friend window. Kijung was still logged out.

‘But he didn’t connect? He should have arrived home already. Oh well……’

When Leeha remembered Kijung’s parting words that he would go with Bobae, Leeha smiled insidiously.

If he didn’t log in yet, then the reason was obvious.
