Chapter 116

“Shin...... Nara?”

Is he talking about that Shin?

6th place in the world ranking, 1st among female users in the world, 2nd place fencer in Korean ranking, and an Olympic gold medalist!

Leeha looked at the woman as well when he heard Kijeong.

And he remembered the sword she swung and the movements she had shown.

‘Now that I have a closer look...... they are similar!!’ First of all, the shape of the sword was similar. A thin and elongated sword like a rapier! In addition, her reaction speed, movement, and flexibility seemed to transcend humanity! Among swordsmen, especially fencers, it is their skill and specialty.

Just like what one-armed Lepanto showed.

“S-Shin......! Shin Nara-nim! You’re Shin Nara-nim, right??”

“Hahaha, you recognized me. You’re right.”

Shin Nara replied shyly and twisted her body.

It was hard to see the person who blocked the charge, that could have been able to break even a fortress wall, with a thin sword and a single leg.

“Oh my god! You’re not, right? Rising Sun? What are you here, Shin Nara-nim? No, do you two know each other?”

“No, no, how do I explain it?”

He was on the verge of dying surrounded by the Rising Sun, and a person on horseback saved me. But it was Shin Nara?

‘Will he believe me when I explain it?’ Leeha did not know that Shin Nara heard his gunshot which had pulled her, so he couldn’t figure out how to explain.

“I was just passing by. He even saved me, so we got a little close.”

Shin Nara said with a smile.

“Saved? Leeha hyung-nim saved Shin Nara-nim? You are in the top 9, what are you talking about?”

Kijeong managed to hold back his laughter as he took turns looking at Leeha and Shin Nara.

“I-I didn’t save you, I just thought it was dangerous, so I-.”

As Leeha spoke, he only thought that it was .

It’s only been a few days since he reached level 60, and he tried to protect the 6th place in the rankings.

He instinctively tried to protect in case they get involved, but now he was embarrassed.

The more Leeha struggled, the more Kijeong giggled. However, Shin Nara, the party involved, neither laughed nor was ashamed.

“It’s true. It’s the first time I’ve seen a person try to protect me using their body. Thank you.”

“Ooh-la-la...... Wow...”Fôllôw new stories at novelhall.com

Rather, she was slightly shy and bowed her head that Kijeong and Leeha felt embarrassed.

And Shin Nara asked.

“What’s your name?”

“Me?”

“Yes.”

Kijeong looked at him with a reluctant expression.

“My name is Ha Leeha.”

“Ha Leeha-nim. Ha Leeha-nim.”

Shin Nara repeated Leeha’s name over and over again.

She had a small voice ,but Leeha felt his ears burning every time he heard his name out of Shin Nara’s mouth.

“It’s been a while since I had fun. Then-.”

“Where... are you going?”

“What?”

With Shin Nara’s words sounding like they were going their separate ways. Leeha spat out words unknowingly.

“W-where are you going?”

“I am going to do my quest......”

“Then will you go......?”

“Ah, that...... I don’t know exactly......

“Ah! Yes. I understand. I’m sorry. I asked you for no reason.”

As Shin Nara bowed her head as if she was sorry, Leeha became even more apologetic.

It was a ranker’s quest. In Middle Earth, where information is very important, it was rude to ask such reckless questions.

Leeha suddenly felt like a beginner.

“No. You saved me, hmm......”

Shin Nara glanced at Kijeong. And Kijeong understood what Nara meant.

“No! I’m not going anywhere! My name is Master Kay of Byeolcho. I’m with Leeha-hyung and we are cousins. I’m not going anywhere! It’s not like I want to hear you talk! So don’t worry about me- ”

“B-be quiet you idiot! You’re talking a lot right now!”

Another whisper covered over Kijeong’s whisper, a whisper that made his head tremble.

-Can I add you...... as a friend? Don’t tell the person next to you.......

Leeha barely closed his mouth, which was about to open wide.

As he saw Nara twisting her body while she sat on the horse

Leeha’s heart fluttered.

Add to friends? Of course.

-Yes! I won’t tell him.

-I’m sorry. I’m sorry, it’s a little hard not to be friends with the person next to you, but....... I only have a few friends space left

-Of course, of course. Absolutely. This guy will understand.

It wasn’t obvious, but Leeha always took Nara’s side.

What was happening? He had difficulty controlling himself.

“Then, goodbye. Please tell me when you come to the capital!”

“Take care, Shin Nara-nim! It was an honor to meet you.”

“I often run into Byeolcho guild at hunting grounds. Then, see you next time, Master Kay-nim, Ha Leeha-nim.”

Kijeong politely said goodbye, and Nara and the horse she was riding shuddered and disappeared.

Leeha and Nara’s sparkling eyes met for a few seconds, until she disappeared.

“She left.”

“Yes, she left.”

As Leeha mechanically answered Kijeong’s words, Leeha stared intently at the spot she had disappeared.

Just looking at the way she spoke, she was pure and innocent, but had overwhelming strength.

Leeha was immersed in the charm that came from her skill, which did not align with the personality and temperament that she had.

“You think she’s pretty, right?”

Of course, one couldn’t miss the fact that she was cute. Kijeong, who was staring at Leeha, poked him in the side.

“Oh? Ohh? W-what are you talking about! I don’t.”

“Haha, this, this is the first time I have seen this kind of expression from you. Are you completely obsessed with her? By the way, aren’t you forever alone?”

“Heuk! This child, there’s nothing you can’t say to your hyung. Do you think I am forever alone?”

“Isn’t it the same? I think hyung told me about it before.”

“I have dated before!”

“When?”

“That.... Anyway, I have.”

20 years ago! Leeha didn’t think he needed to add that.

He would only get teased if he brought up a story of his elementary school days.

“By the way, if you come to the capital, please tell me....... Rankers think of the capital as their home.”

Leeha, who was embarrassed, quickly turned around.

Kijeong laughed and added an explanation.

“Of course. Shin Nara-nim doesn’t have a guild. Do you know why?”

“Why?”

“The Sacred Knights is Shin Nara’s guild.”

“What? Sacred? What are you talking about?”

“She was the first user to join the Sacred Knights, and it was the first time a user got awarded a knighthood. Compared to rankers, Shin Nara grows stronger through quests rather than hunting, but there’s a reason she is famous. Shin Nara-nim was the only user who had received a knighthood from the Fibiel Kingdom.”

“Wow...”

“The capital’s NPCs are said to be unable to control themselves when they see Shin Nara. She gets treated very kindly. I wish I could get treated like that.”

It was an incredible experience to see Kijeong getting really regretful.

A user that was able to eat along with the monstrous Sacred Knights.

Compared to other veiled top rankers, Shin Nara’s activities were revealed, which forced her to receive more spotlight.

‘She was a better woman than I thought......’

Leeha opened his friend’s window and looked at Shin Nara’s name once more.

She already passed Marching Plains.

“Oh, didn’t you say the Rising Sun bastards were here? How did that happen?”

Kijeong’s expression became serious again.

In the first place, it was the reason he stopped hunting and came to rescue Leeha.

It’s because Kijeong heard the urgency in Leeha’s voice.
