Chapter 123

Chapter 123

If Leeha acquired and analyzed information a little more carefully, found out the true Angel’s identity, and shot him accurately, it wouldn’t have happened.

‘The rest of the Wild Angels only do what they were told to do.’

This was a group of bandits that was maintained by the absolute charisma of the leader called Angel.

They were united because of their infinite trust in his judgement and strategy, so if it hadn’t been for Angel, they would have been almost immediately disbanded.

It was a bit unfair that he was scolded even after he completed the quest, but Leeha readily acknowledged his mistake.

“What? What are you talking about? I wanted to apologize because the Sacred Knights have delivered wrong information.”

“What?”

At Browless’s words, Leeha made an absurd expression.

“It was something that the kingdom couldn’t solve in the first place. You did nothing wrong. Rather, you did well.”

“Oh, Ooh. Is that so?”

“Haha, I couldn’t see it in person, but I could tell just by hearing what the Sacred Knights had to say. I can’t believe you were able to snipe someone who was thoroughly defended. If the Sacred Knights delivered the proper image, the situation would have ended better. Isn’t that so?”

“I-it is.”

“Don’t think too deeply about it. We were not commissioned to disband the Wild Angels or to save the local residents. It was only one thing, snipe ‘Angel’.”

Browless, who sat with his chins crossed, stood up.

He made the atmosphere scary while he sat down!

Leeha wanted to tell Browless a joke, but he did not have the heart to do so.

‘That’s right....... It’s crazy to think it’s my fault. I couldn’t do anything!’

Browless held out his hand.

A celebratory sound came out when Leeha held the strong hand.

“Great job. If I have to give you one more piece of advise, wouldn’t it have been better if you were able to protect the village?”

“T-That’s right.”

“Haha, from acquiring information to returning safely. Congratulations on going through one perfect battle. You’re not just a musketeer, you’re a real sniper.”

Babam-!

[You have completed Accuracy Enhancement-3: Comprehension Test].

[You have acquired 1 gold.]

[You have acquired skill: Sniper.]

[Intimacy and Security in Candle Castle

+ 10% .]

[Fibiel Kingdom’s National Contribution + 90.]

[You leveled up.]

“Thank you.”

Leeha felt his throat getting dry.

He was recognized as a real sniper, and passed the comprehension test In addition, the reward was one gold! A skill that seemed to have something to do Sniping just based on its name. and up to leveling up.

It felt like when he was a child, after receiving a comprehensive gift set.

It was indeed a quest with great difficulty. It was safe to say that it was the quest that he had put most effort in......

And hard work always returned a reasonable reward, like now.

“What is it? Training is now over...... Will you try Miss Elizabeth’s Will?”

“Yes? Ah! No, not yet.”

“Is that so.”

Browless put on a sad expression.

The quest for Miss Elizabeth’s Will.

“It’s good to be careful, but someone might appear in the meantime, so you have to do it quickly.”

“Haha, yes, director-nim! I understand!”

Another successor meant another musket user.

However, Leeha had not seen any other user while he was in and out of the academy.

Musket users are almost nonexistent, there was no chance that another successor would appear.

‘It was because of the quest content that I had to get closer.’

He neatly put everything into agility. Now that his agility was 581, it meant it was almost 600. Leeha smiled and opened the skill window.

[Intermediate Musket Mastery(Passive) (Lv. 7)]

[Intermediate Calm Mind(Lv.3)]

[Beginner’s Bayonet Charge(Lv. 8)]

[Beginner Delicate Hand Movement(Lv. 9)

[Beginner Eagle’s Eye(Lv.4)]

[Beginner Marking (Lv. 3)]

[Beginner Snipe(Lv. 1)]

Two intermediate level skills.

And except for Exquisite Hand Movement, which was about to enter the intermediate level, all of his skills were beginner-level.

‘Combat skills are all...... Hmm, right, there’s stuff like bargaining and cooking as well.’

Leeha looked at the skill window and realized what he had forgotten.

‘It’s stupid. Haha, good. Let’s take a look at this skill first.’

And Leeha opened the description for Snipe.

[Beginner Snipe(Lv. 1)]

Description : Uses mana to strengten the gunpowder and protect the barrel.

Effect : Increase maximum range by 30% for 1 minute

Mana: 200

Cooldown : 1 hour

“Whoa, really?!”

“Aish, that surprised me.”

“I-I’m sorry.”

Passerbys were startled.

Leeha’s cheers, filled with joy, echoed around the academy. And the joy was understandable.

‘Increase in range! Range! It’s only one minute, but a 30% increase- Oh

The maximum firing range of the needle gun is approximately 350m. What if it was increased by an additional 30%?

‘455m! I can go over 400m......!’

For some, it would be a very useless skill.

Anyway, the range of a musket was fixed at 40m, and it was 52m when it was increased by 30%.

However, 30% was huge for Ha Leeha, who turned off the Combat Assistance System and used the musket to its fullest.

‘I tried to shoot with double or triple the amount of gunpowder... but now, I don’t have to.’

Leeha was worried on how to clear Miss Elizabeth’s Will quest. The simplest way to increase range was to increase the amount of gunpowder.

However, it was not as easy as it sounded.

If the amount of gunpowder was increased, the barrel would not be able to withstand it, or even if it does, the precision would decrease in the first place.

‘More than anything else, the problem with adding a lot of gunpowder is the chance that the musket would explode......

If he measured the amount incorrectly, two bags of gunpowder would explode in Leeha’s face.

It was a risky way that could lose him his life and money.

‘I still have to practice a lot more, but at least I have found a way.’

Muskets rarely have a fixed range like modern rifles. It was also greatly affected by the wind and by a slight control of gunpowder.

The range around 350m also had a lot of variations.

‘I need to keep in mind that I might only be able to narrowly reach 444m. It’s my first time using the skill, so I have to master it enough.’

It meant that he could not clear the quest right now.

“Haha, still! Still, this is it! Whoa!”

Waiting without rushing was also an answer. Leeha whistled pleasantly.

He went to the place he would go in 4 days with a smile. The capital branch of the Holy Grill.
