Chapter 73
‘It would be better not dealing with it at all.’
Matsushige made a decision. He would leave the Chieftain and run away and would come back to hunt it when wearing the right items.
Meanwhile, Ha Leeha would die, which would have the effect of slowing down his growth and his potential threat.
“Hana-chan! Are you ready?”
“Yes, yes!”
“Kaa-! Humans, kaa!”
“Stop! Kaa!”
Matsushige and Mame Hana started running again.
It had already been confirmed that space magic such as ‘Teleport’ could not be used inside the village.
“Run, run!”
The entrance will be coming soon.
While the kobold guards followed, Matsushige tore another scroll.
“Haa–, Ma-chan! Ma-chan!”
“You can do it, Hana-chan! ‘Swamp’!”
In an instant, the ground that the kobolds were running on turned into a swamp. The hard ground instantly began to suck the kobolds in.
“Kuwat–! Kaa, my foot, my foot is missing kaa-.”
“Ka- human wizard...”
Unlike the kobold guards who were bewildered in the gurgling land, Hijuit-Ka stood calmly.
“They are here, Hana-chan! Take my hand!”
“Ma-chan!”
Matsushige and Mame Hana ran with all their might.
Finally, they were at the entrance of the village. A newly spawned kobold guard looked at Matsushige, but he didn’t care.
“We’re here!”
“Let’s go! Re-”
Matsushige ripped a scroll while holding Mame Hana’s hand. In the distance, they could feel the eyes of Hijuit-Ka, who was still in the swamp and was staring at them.
“-turn!”
Did they see it wrong? At the last moment, Hijuit-Ka’s head seemed to shake.
‘I don’t have time, I need to hurry!’
Leeha opened his map.
Although the lines were hazy, Leeha’s eye quickly read the map.
‘There was no hill to climb straight up. However, if that was the case...’
Leeha took his eyes off the map and looked to the west. There was a watchtower. There were no archers.
‘Is there only one solution? If I make one shot, I will get caught.’
But it can’t be helped. It was a one-shot fight anyway. He would not achieve anything if he thought about failure.
‘Failure is the result of trying, there would be no success nor failure if I don’t try. I can only trust in myself.’
Leeha immediately climbed the watchtower.
“Phew.”
His musket was already reloaded. Leeha held his musket on the fence of the watchtower and looked around.
‘They were running towards the entrance-‘
“Huh?”
Hwaaak一!
Leeha found a blazing fire after a moment. What? Is there a wizard there?
The screams of kobolds could be heard from afar. Behind them, there was Hijuit-Ka, who was casually standing while holding his Eonwoldo.
‘Alright. It would be better if more of them died!’
Leeha aimed his musket directly at Hijuit-Ka.
From now on, he would not tolerate a single mistake or calculation error. Leeha immediately started to prepare to snipe.
The first thing one needs to consider is the wind.
How to check the wind?
‘The smoke from the wall of fire.’
The black smoke rose vertically.
‘Judging from the smoke, there was hardly any wind. It was very weak. lm/s, south-southwest.... At this distance, there is no difference in trajectory.’
It was because there was no wind. Anyway, he was glad. Leeha measured the distance immediately.
The wall of fire was extinguished.
In that situation, the rest of the kobolds were 50% weaker?
“Really... I should thank those who ran away. Hehehe.”
Leeha couldn’t hide his joy.
The idea that he had to hunt Hijuit-Ka and run away immediately changed.
‘Let’s pick up the items!!’
Besides, it was not just one or two items. The items were dropped by the Rising Sun guild members.
The sundries of the dead kobold guards. The item that Hijuit-Ka dropped. And... and...
‘Warehouse!!’
The kobold warehouse in the iron mines. Of course, there were a few adult kobolds as it was a breeding area, but it did not matter.
For an hour, they could only use half of their strength.
Besides, the present Leeha was invincible.

“Oh...?”
Two achievements and one hall of fame in one shot. However, the description caught Leeha’s eye, which was slightly different from usual.
“Why are you still here? Make way for the next generation~”
The increase in stats also changed compared to the equal distribution of stats before. Hijuit-Ka was an agile monster, is that the reason it focused on agility?
Leeha, who wanted to dance out of joy, was very calm when he judged and analyzed.
‘From here on out, it would be difficult to one-shot even when using a normal skill... It would even be difficult for high-level users. If they were tankers, it would be almost impossible to one-shot them.’
He felt the more serious the description was, the more effect it carried.
“Hehehe...”
Anyway, it was a good thing. If he was a normal level 27 or lower user, it might not have been possible. However, there was a reason it was possible.
‘The Rising Sun guys really helped.’
Leeha opened the notification window and looked at the past messages.

“Hehehe... Thanks for these.”
The achievements he got when he killed the Rising Sun guild member, Kuschner!
These stat points have already been used, when he first hid in the tree.
In other words, while Tikal, Petal Kim, and the other Rising Sun guild members were still alive, all 20 points were invested in agility.
‘His stats were originally close to level 50, but after the 20 points were added... It may have exceeded level 50 stats.’
Besides, he had a title.
Leeha was currently using the title ‘Fearless’ which increased his attack power by 10% by default.
If there were more than 20 levels of difference, Leeha’s attack power would be increased by a whopping 30%.
