Chapter 206

“Uh? What...... gunshot?”

Ram Hwayeon heard a loud gunshot as she descended from the lookout tower of the central palace. There should have been no reason for her to hear a gunshot now. Why did he suddenly use his weapon when he said that Petyr was dead?

-What’s happening?

-Ha Leeha?

There was no response. At that moment, another gunshot rang out. There were 3 in total.

Ram Hwayeon’s face darkened. There might be another assassin. The thought that there was something wrong made her hasten.

“Haa, haa.”

She rushed down the round stairs of the lookout tower and ran towards Leeha’s hiding spot.

The worrying thought that something happened to Leeha did not leave her head.

“Ha Leeha!”

“Ram Hwayeon!”

She screamed in the dark. Fortunately, Leeha’s voice was still lively. Since he said that Petyr was already dead, she was worried that the members of Midnight Circus who had been hiding somewhere had come running.

If several agile assassins rushed in, no matter how strong Leeha was, he would not be able to endure it. However, he was still alive. The problem was that she was in danger. Even in the dark, something violent ran toward her. When she discovered ten nails that shone reflected by the slightest moonlight, she couldn’t even think of casting a counterattack. Because it was too late anyway.

“Puhihim, another surprise?!”

“Ah- uh-”

“Duck! Ram Hwayeon, duck!!”

Petyr’s sharp claws pointed towards Ram Hwayeon’s chest. She only had one thought. She had to live. And if she wanted to live, she had to listen to Leeha!

“Kyaaak!”

Baaang–!

Another gunshot rang out. The huge bullet matching the size of a sniper rifle pierced Petyr’s shoulder and tore off one of his arms.

The timing was enough to brush the tip of Ram Hwayeon’s hair, who was squatting!

[Intimacy with Fibiel’s Royal Family increased by 5%.]

“Puhihihi”

“kyaaak!”

Petyr, running towards Ram Hwayeon, lost his focus and rolled over.

One of his arms was torn and blood was gushing out like a fountain, but the miyaw crawled on the floor.

“Damn it! Give me a break!”

In such a ridiculous situation, Leeha’s thoughts did not work properly. What? The first bullet definitely punctured his chest. Now, the hole was clearly visible to Leeha.

The second shot missed because of the sudden darkness, and the third missed because of Petyr’s unpredictable movements, but this time, it definitely hit. Was there any creature that could live with one arm and a hole in their chest? Okay, let’s say it was in Middle Earth. Even so, would he have the health to survive if he got hit by two bullets with an estimated attack power of 17,000 each? Moreover, if he was an assassin? At least as far as Leeha knew, it shouldn’t be. Even Kijeong, a tanker, would not be able to withstand this bullet if he got hit in the chest!

‘This is Middle Earth after all. It’s okay, it has always exceeded my expectation.’

Click, and he reloaded again.

“You have grown a lot. You have charged it more than once.”

“......Y-you- T-that voice! Besides, that move! Puhihi, you! Nguyen-”

At Biyemi’s words, Petyr’s facial muscles greatly moved. Words that nobody in the room was able to understand. What was more curious than the content of the conversation was the relationship between the two. Who is Biyemi? Was he acquainted with Petyr? When everyone’s brains were focused on one thought, they couldn’t focus on the target as much as Leeha.

“Haa...”

Because that was not what was important right now. Leeha’s muzzle did not wobble. Petyr already lost his focus on Leeha. If he couldn’t read the timing, no matter how quick he was, he wouldn’t be faster that a bullet at that distance. If so, Leeha was confident. At this moment, his greed became confidence.

‘I should hit without fail.’

Leeha pulled the trigger. The shot ripped through the air and passed under Ram Hwayeon’s ear and pierced Petyr’s neck.

“Haa...... haa...”

The only thing that spread through the gardens of the royal palace was the sound of breathing. No one was able to speak.

[Intimacy with Fibiel’s Royal Family increased by 5%.]

A system message appeared. However, this time, the reaction was different. Most importantly, the white light from Leeha’s body and numerous notification windows blocked his eyes.

[You have leveled up.]

[You have leveled up.]

[Achievement : Ranker Hunter(Topl0) – 5th rank, “Petyr”(A)]

Congratulations! You killed the 5th of Middle Earth’s top 10 highest level users. I hope you didn’t kill him by luck. He might come back to steal the achievement of ‘Ranker Hunter’! Please be careful! Effect: 34 temporary stat points (recovered when the target user dies) (The achievement does not have a hall of fame.)

[Achievement: Midnight Circus Target(B)]

Should you celebrate? You are targeted by the Midnight Circus, one of the continent’s strongest assassins. This is a proof that your skills have been recognized! The fanfare in the middle of the night hid the screams. It is not possible to have a comfortable dream in the future.

Assassination indicator: Petyr (Miyaw, Midnight Circus Vice-leader)

Effect: 28 temporary stat points(Recovered upon the target’s death)

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

‘Should I congratulate you?’

Leeha frantically confirmed the achievements He had already seen the ranker hunter achievement when he caught Igor, but it was the first time he saw the target achievement.

‘Is it similar to the ranker hunter...?’

Was it one of the systems of Middle Earth to enforce rivalry between users? Besides, it was a system that turned a single group into an enemy, not a party, like the ranker hunter.

“Dead...... me?”

After a while, Shin Nara went to Petyr. It was a man that deserved death. Even though his body had turned gray, it was difficult to be certain of his death.

“I think he is definitely dead this time. Phew...”

Leeha grabbed the Black Bass and walked towards Petyr. His level has risen, and the achievement of Agromni Igor appeared. The achievement ‘Ranker Hunter’ can only be obtained by those who killed a ranker. This achievement could be regarded as a death certificate.

Leeha shook his head as he looked at Petyr’s body which had changed to salted green. He had faced many users and many monsters. Even the Brass Golem was killed in one blow, and even the eye of the field boss Cyclops was destroyed. If it was a user, there was a time when Agromni Igor’s face was smashed. However. Petyr was even more bizarre than a field boss or Agromni Igor. He could get a rough idea of what it meant to have the worst reputation on Middle Earth.

“It’s not an alien, it moves even if its arms and legs fly off-”

“Ha...... Ha Leeha!!!”

While everyone was preoccupied with Petyr’s corpse, only one woman’s eyes were fixed on Leeha. Her red hair fluttered in the night sky as it covered Leeha’s body.
