Chapter 286

ED:
He was a foolish and straightforward person, who is good at expressing honest emotion with a good head that could hardly be called a ploy.
That was what Kidd’s opinion of Leeha. He had the ability, but Kidd thought that he wasn’t a user that would take the initiative to do something.
Of course, it was because Kidd moved with Pei Wu in the National War. If he had seen Leeha, who led Byeolcho from the Marching Plains, those thoughts would have been shattered long ago.
“Luger understands Middle Earth as well.”
“Yeah, he understands it. The fact that he’s being rude while knowing the condition for failure of the quest.... That’s even more disgusting! Ah, that damn bastard. Even if he knows about the northern trolls, Crolang must be a boss that never appears. Like Hijuit-ka. Isn’t it? He knows everything.”
Hijuit-Ka, the kobold boss, was not a boss monster that appears in normal situations. Certain conditions needed to be satisfied. Hijuit-ka, was a captain during the second human-demon war, then what about Crolang, who had already been named at that time?
Of course, it was a reasonable that it was not a monster that would always appear, that is, although Luger could kill northern trolls, he had no experience in dealing with Crolang.
“Even though you say you don’t like it, are you already preparing to complete the quest?”
“Uh, huh? No, I have to prepare for it. Even if we can’t kill him, it’s definitely not going to be a normation situation if he appears.”plained about Luger but Leeha was already focused on the quest. Kidd smiled while looking at Leeha.
“Still, there should be no problem.”
Luger was like a fighting cock, but he had solid understanding of Middle Earth. Even in the midst of talking, Leeha kept his cool.
Kidd felt a kind of relief, thinking, ‘If I went with these two people, I won’t get hurt’.
“No problem?”
“If Luger is confident....... If we could shoot Crolang and complete the quest faster. Isn’t that better? Time is money in Middle Earth.”
“That’s right, that’s right, but, hmm.”
What will it be If Luger was an expert at planning positive situations, Leeha was an expert at preparing for the worst.
Various probabilities appeared in his mind.
“If you take away the confidence from that person, what will be left? That man is telling us to think as him, but we still need to prepare in our own way.”
“Well, if we’re not confident, we are dead.”
“There won’t be any bodies left.”
“Huh? Then?”
Looking at Leeha tilting his head, Kidd laughed.
“You just need to put pomade in your hair.”
With a strange smile.
Leeha looked at Kidd for a while, wondering what the hell he was talking about. Kidd was taken aback by his eyes, and cleared his throat and put on his hat. Only then did Leeha realize.
Dead, body.[TL: I don’t get the joke either. I can’t really translate the word play. 무괴 can mean dead body/corpse, or monster with no quality] ?!Company? Did he just do that? Is it? Were you trying to be funny?”
“Cough, see you later.”
“Kuhahaha, what? Pamade? Hahaha, pomade?”
Kidd pulled out a scroll. Until the moment he tore the paper, Leeha covered and made fun of Kidd.
“Well, I still have plenty of bullets....... I will put the ogre club on the auction house, and stop by the Holy Grill.”
In the spot where Kidd disappeared, Leeha moved his feet.
* 2 hours quickly passed by.
Luger was leaning against the wall of the academy, as if he hadn’t prepared anything or everything had already been prepared. When Leeha appeared, Luger only glanced at him for a moment, then took out an apple and bit it.
“At times like this, you usually ask “Are you ready?”, it is where people start to talk. Or ‘Would you like an apple?’. You don’t have to say a lot, but why are so quiet?”
Leeha pursed his lips and gave a sarcastic remark, but Luger did not even pay attention to him. “Okay. Well, there shouldn’t be any need to talk like that between us. I also said that I wouldn’t want to do this if it wasn’t for the quest.”
However, it wasn’t only Leeha’s concern.
He did not know when something like this quest will come again. The difficulty of the Three Musketeers co-op quest may also rise more and more.
‘Damn it. It is a problem if we start by being uncooperative.’
Since they were grouped into one group called the “Three Musketeers” on the Middle Earth anyway, Leeha thought he needed to work together, so he tried to approach Luger first even if he didn’t like it. However, if the other side did not respond, Leeha had no intention of forcing it.
He had hard time aiming his weapon. The smaller and faster the monster, the harder it was to hit.
In that respect, he mainly went around looking for large monsters for hunting. It was also a reasonable guess.
Step- Step- clack-.
“Hmm?
“Hmm?
Why-”
“Shh.”
Luger frowned and looked around. Watching him lower his stance, Kidd lowered his stance as well.
‘Damn it, give a signal when you stop. He will het beaten up if he ever went into the army. He seems like a guy who doesn’t even know the squad signal system.’
Leeha, who was furthest behind, also lowered his stance.
They were not walking on ice like the arctic. The degree to which the thin layer of ice covered the land. There were places where the snow had not melted and accumulated. Along the ridge, there were also rocks and some plants adapted to the cold.
In other words, it meant that there was enough terrain to hide. The three of them hid on the hill and peeked.
“Troll Sentry. There’s still a long way to go until the northern troll district...
Luger’s ominous voice made Leeha and Kidd nervous.
Luger’s expression was clearly different from usual. If Luger, who had been here often, felt strange, it could be taken as an indication that the situation wasn’t normal.
And now, given the contents of the quest they received, there was only one thing that can be guessed under such circumstance.
“It means that Bluebeard might have stopped by.”
“Maybe he’s in he northern troll district right now.”
Clack, clack-.
They were startled by the sudden noise. Luger reloaded.
“What are you trying to do?”
Leeha pressed Luger’s gun barrel with his hand quickly and said.
“Do not disturb them.”
Luger held Leeha’s hand paak-! He stood up with an expression as cold as the weather. However, he couldn’t take a step forward. It was because Leeha pulled his clothes from behind. Pheeeew.......
Leeha let out a big sigh. If he was like this, they can’t go all the way.
“Answer me straight, Luger. Can you only move north by catching that, or can we avoid it?”
The hummingbird pistol was clutched in Leeha’s left hand Luger, who glanced at the pistol-shaped musket, eventually turned to look down.
Kidd also sighed and put his hand inside his coat at the imminent situation that occured once again.
Kidd held his gun that had already turned into a revolver
Everything could end within 0.3 seconds with just quick draw and panning. Kidd was confident. At the current distance, no matter how many Leehas or Lugers there were, his [Rapid fire] will take care of them.
However, what he was worried about right now was not whether it would work or not. Was is possible to fix the situation by shooting their weapons and making them fall without causing damage to the two, but not getting caught by the troll seeker in front of them? That thought stopped Kidd’s hands.
‘Damn it, why do you keep getting mad at this kind of thing?’
Ultimately, the best thing to do was to prevent suct a situation from happening.
“The quest hasn’t even started yet.”
Therefore, they shouldn’t have to exert themselves unnecessarily. When Kidd put his hand in his coat and with lowered his voice, neither Leeha nor Luger could continue their confrontation.
If Kidd made his move, neither of them could stop him. If that happened, they would end up losing. As Luger was aware of the situation, he opened his mouth as he was having a stare down with Leeha.
“We have to catch that.”
“Why?”
Luger’s words was short, but Leeha’s was shorter. Luger went silent for a while after that.
Although he made it clear that he did not like Leeha’s attitude, but Leeha never showed any sign of backing down.
Eventually, Luger opened his mouth.
“The seeker continue hunting until it finds a prey. I have never seen it come out as far away as it is now. And I can remember the location of the sentry elsewhere, and even if there’s a gunfire here, they wouldn’t be able to hear it all the way from the northern troll quarters. Most importantly, if it finds us first, the [lookout] title you want will be gone. All of the northern trolls will be on high alert. Do you want more reason to hold back?”
