Matan’s Shooter

TL: xLordFifth

ED:

As soon as Leeha thought about the treatment, he felt nervous and excited at the same time, and even though he was tired, he couldn’t fall asleep easily.

After lying down on the bed and tossing and turning for a few minutes, Leeha ended up thinking about the new continent expedition again.

‘Now that I think about it, who are the other heroes’ descendants? It is a bit surprising that the six people who already joined initially were heroes’ descendants and that there are still 11 more.’

According to Fernand, among the 40 combatants, 17 were descendants of heroes and 23 were regular participants.

‘Ram Hwajung didn’t come today, but anyway…… Bobae mentioned that she was also a hero’s descendant. Nara-ssi is an additional member and is not counted.’

In other words, there are seven known heroes’ descendants among the participants, including Leeha, Kidd, Luger, Alexander, Lee Jiwon, Ram Hwajung, and Bobae. And 10 people who did not show up for today’s selection process.

‘They just gave me the list and said that everyone else is not present.’

They appear to have no interest in how to combine the list they selected to form the optimal team with the available number of people.

‘It’s like they are saying that they are that confident…. Hmm, I don’t think so.’

It can be interpreted that no matter who they go with, they believe in their own strength.

Leeha wanted to see the 40 members of the expedition together.

‘For that to happen, I have to sleep right away. I have to sleep because even if I sleep right now, it won’t be enough.’

There was no way to predict who would be among the heroes’ descendants.

Beep- paak-!

“Haa, haa. It’s time- Okay. I’m not late.”

Leeha, woke up exactly at the sound of the alarm with a sharp spirit, prepared with disciplined movements like a soldier.

He finished washing up, ate a hearty breakfast, and checked the time and the community before logging into Middle Earth.

“As expected… It is only natural since more than 24 hours have already passed in Middle Earth.”

[Title: Phase 3 Main Story]

[Isn’t it the expedition to the new continent?]

[Title: List of New Continent Expedition Participants]

[Title: I heard the news yesterday, but the selection was already over]

[Title: Not necessarily a good thing. You have to be overworked and barely able to sleep for over 10 days]

[Title: this is just a good reward for being a latecomer]

Most of the articles that exploded in the community were stories related to the new continent. Most of them were also dissatisfied with the ‘rushed selection process’.

‘Tsk, We still get criticized even when we work. It’s not like Fernand-ssi did it because he wanted to.’

What could they have done when the game’s story was flowing too quickly?

Although it was inevitable that they would get cursed at because the general public did not know the truth, it was still uncomfortable for Leeha.

‘In fact, if we had been given a month or two to spare, more candidates would have participated.’

Of course, a considerable number of people flocked to the tournament to participate to be an expedition member for each country.

However, compared to the national war, this number was insignificant.

Chasing Bluebeard was actually the main content of Phase 2, but the ‘bait’ event, the national competition, was a grand festival in which everyone participated, so it was natural that complaints would surge in the community.

‘Hmm, then what is this? There would be no way in which only a few elites would be allowed to play like this. Could it be said that after constructing the mana relay tower, a large number of users would flock toward the new continent? Ah. I don’t know. I have to connect first.’

Leeha somehow had a premonition that there was something on this trip to the new continent, but at this point, there was nothing he could do.

He quickly logged in to Middle Earth and got ammo from the newly opened Bottleneck smithy in Gaza City.

“It makes me sick to my stomach to think that money goes into your pocket  whenever I buy here.”

“What? Then don’t buy. Should I tell them to not sell you anything, Luger?”

“……I was just saying.” 

Luger grumbled! While doing so, he stuffed the bullets into his belt and bag.

Leeha laughed happily at the sight.

“What are you doing? Are you resupplying ammunition only now?”

With less than an hour left until the quest deadline, Kidd finally came to the Bottleneck smithy in Gaza City.

“Why did Kidd-ssi come so late? Get it quickly and let’s go.”

The Three Musketeers were the Three Musketeers after all. The source of their strength was from bullets.

It was inevitable that the last stop before they left on a long journey was the Bottleneck Blacksmith Shop.

“Bottleneck-ssi, is the speed loader ready?”

“Damn it, what day is today? Three guys I don’t like come and ask me to do things, what’s happening? Damn it, Beard Brothers!”

Bottleneck ran around, pulled out the items he had prepared, and called his assistants. The Beard Brothers grinned as they looked at the three musketeers lined up in front of the smithy.

“Hehe boss! Still, isn’t it amazing?”

“What? I’m going to be busy, so go and get that guy’s bullet and Kidd’s Speed Loader!”

“That’s how the three musketeers are. Huhut, really. It feels like I’m seeing Brown, Elizabeth, and Browless. It’s a new feeling.”

Stop. At those words, Bottleneck’s movement for a moment.

The three men standing in front of the smithy with their backs to the sunlight.

Their clothes and personalities were different, but at least the guns they were holding and their attributes were of the heroes of the second human-demon war.

For the dwarf NPCs whose memories were set, the scene with the three of them together would be set up as a kind of emotional code.

“Heung, it’s still far away. Brown, Elizabeth, and Browless were feared by all demonic beings. You’re still young, you aren’t there yet! Take it, you bastards!”

“Waak! Who said that? It was the Beard Brothers, why are you hitting me?”

Pak, pak!

Bottleneck hit Leeha’s thigh and flipped over the magazines.

Leeha became the actual owner of Gaza City, and Bottleneck was only a citizen of the city and the head of engineering, but their relationship remained the same.

The three musketeers packed their weapons, including bags full of bullets and bombs, and put bullets on their belts to complete their preparations.

“Are you ready? Nothing is missing, right?”

“You brat, get your head together.”

“Activate the crystal ball.”

“Not reading the mood, really…. In perfect touching times like this! Would it be better if I was the one to do it for you and move with you? With a new start, the three of us are joining forces again-”

Shoo- Shoo-!

Kidd and Luger, who had already activated their crystal ball, disappeared while Leeha was speaking.

“Tsk. I’ll be back Bottleneck-ssi! Director Browless might come here from time to time as well!”

“Why would he come here?”

“I asked him to patrol the city once in a while if nothing is going on in the capital! Anyway, don’t waste too much money while I’m away-”

Shyuuk-!

“……Still nagging until the end. Phew!”

After Leeha disappeared, Bottleneck looked at the sky and trembled.

Three people arrived and gathered in front of the Holy City in an instant.

Not only the expedition members but also countless users gathered in the square in front of the Vatican.

Leeha could tell that they came to watch.

“Fernand-ssi!”

“Ah, the three musketeers! Finally, you came at just the right time. Stand over here quickly.”

Meanwhile, Fernand was presiding over the event.

When Leeha joined the ranks, he felt he truly was a pitiful user.

[You have completed the ‘Last Supper’ quest.]

Babam-! With the completion of the quest, an achievement notification sounded in his head. All the members of the New Continent expedition team gathered together and the quest was cleared.

[Title: New Continent Expedition(A)]

Congratulations! You will participate as a member of the second expedition to the new continent. You will fight the rough seas and unexpected monsters! Can you overcome the unimaginable obstacles and reach the realm of the gods? To the members of the 2nd New Continent Expedition, who will be responsible for the revival of humanity, you must hurry! Even at this moment, the enemy will be constantly moving!

Reward: 18 Stat points

(This achievement does not have a hall of fame.)

‘Fernand-ssi must have gotten the first one a long time ago. Does that mean he had already gotten an A-rank achievement back then?’

It must not have been long after Middle Earth opened.

Looking at his achievements, Leeha was able to get a glimpse of how Ferdinand grew so quickly.

“Now! It will be over in just 30 minutes! I will formally greet you before boarding the ship in Kraven Kingdom! We have to get the quest quickly and leave, so get in line!”

Fernand shouted at the 40 users.

Leeha opened his friend’s window and looked at everyone’s location.

The only one who did not come was Shin Nara. She, who will join as an inspector for Fibiel rather than a member, was still in Fibiel Palace.

‘She will receive some kind of quest there. Heuheu. Anyway, it’s amazing.’

Leeha, who was moving to stand in line to receive the quest from the pope, found a group in a standoff.

“Kijeong-ah! Hyein-ssi, Biyemi-ssi, Jin Gonggong-ssi!”

“Eong-ah! Come stand here!”

Kijung responded as a representative and waved his hand at Leeha.

However, Kijung’s expression was slightly uneasy. And he was waving his hand toward Leeha but kept glancing to the side.

“Uhi, uhihihihit! Sur~prise! It’s been a while, Ha Leeha!”

“……What, you? Petyr?”

Leeha’s steps toward Kijung abruptly stopped.

The user with clown makeup standing next to Kijung gave an excessive welcome greeting to Leeha.

“How could you-”

“Uhihihit! Surprise, surprise!”

“What-”

Shwiik-!

Petyr lowered his posture and instantly rushed to the bottom of Leeha’s chin.

Just as his sharp nails were about to touch Leeha, baang-! A metallic sound rang out.

“Kiskis, I know you didn’t really intend to attack, but no matter how crazy you are, isn’t it wrong for you to do something like this in the Vatican?”

Before he knew it, Biyemi had followed his movements and struck Petyr’s nails with a dark green dagger.

Petyr quickly shook off his hand, held his belly, and laughed again.

“Puhihihit! Is this the advice I would want to hear from someone like a lizardia, who isn’t even a 2nd human-demon war hero’s descendant? I can’t keep up with such a slow pace, I’m so sick of it! Uhat! This is delicious, it’s totally red.”

“……Right. You are also a hero’s descendant.”

Leeha was unable to understand the situation by listening to his frantic sounds.

‘A legendary item that could save extra lives. Biyemi-ssi said that when he was working as ‘Nguyen’, there was a fight over it and his character ended up being deleted.’

In other words, it was natural that Petyr, the winner at that time, was the assassin hero’s descendant.

Because of the commotion, the eyes of the 40 members of the new continent expedition were focused on Leeha, Petyr, and Biyemi.

Among them, there were heroes’ descendants and some were tournament participants, but in any case, they were all the same, keeping Leeha and Petyr in check to some extent and observing them closely.

A person walked out through them.

“I don’t think you should be surprised, right? Hi, Ha Leeha-ssi~!”

It was the voice Leeha had heard before but was not familiar with.

The insidiousness buried in her charm. Leeha was surprised to see the user separating the other expedition members.

“……no- You were clearly not in the tournament list!”

“Tournament? Oh my, did you think that there was no dancer class among the heroes of the Second Human-Demon War? Huhut, please take care of me.”

The female user gently bowed and greeted Leeha. Chiyou was also included in the 40-member expedition to the new continent.
