Chapter 355

ED:
‘Does that mean his reputation exceeds 3000? No, I need to clean the house.’
This was because NPCs, unlike users, have additional effects obtained just by being a noble.
He didn’t even listen to what Leeha said.
Leeha only asked if he was the city lord of Gaza, but he could guess the rest just by looking at the boasts that popped out one after another.
“-he says. Cough, are you from the capital?”
At first, he used respectful words, but after he revealed his family, his words immediately changed.
Leeha thought this was better. The more relaxed a person is, the easier they are to deal with.
Among the injured, who were still groaning in pain, Leeha opened his bag and carefully took out a piece of paper.
“I am the first-ranked contributor during the previous national war, the recipient of Fibiel’s Medal of Honor, and the authority directly entrusted to the king regarding the exclusive rights and practical administrative management of Gaza city-”
He had to fight authority with authority.
“Ancient Dragon Slayer Ha Leeha.”Nêww chapters will be fully updated at novelhall.com
Like right now.
From the unknown NPC noble to the surrounding NPCs, and to the user whom Blaugrun had saved, everyone’s jaw dropped on the floor.
Ha-ha-ha- Ha Leeha
Leeha’s name simultaneously resounded through Gaza City.
***
“T-that Ha Leeha-nim?”
“Right, that person! I’ve seen a montage on the marching plains! Sniper Ha Leeha!”
“You did us a great deal of damage in the previous-”
“Shh! ‘We’ are now citizens of Fibiel, you can’t say things like that!”
Some of the NPCs remaining in Gaza City were Fibiel citizens, but there were also those who were from Minis.
The authority to manage the city was transferred from Minis to Fibiel, giving them a choice, and the NPCs who refused to leave their hometown remained as they were, even if their country changed.
The percentage was by no means low, so a significant number of NPCs belonged to Minis and only became Fibiel’s citizens a few days ago.
In other words, it meant that Gaza City was a good city to live in even within Minis.
“Ha-Ha Leeha?”
“That’s right. Here’s the document. Check it out.”
Leeha handed over the document to the nominal lord of the castle.
“Ha Leeha, no, I received a call from Lerik-nim that you would be arriving soon, but-”
His eyes did not trust Leeha at all as he received and examined the document. It was incomprehensible that he was set up as a typical aristocratic noble NPC.
It was unimaginable for him to step up on his own and fight off the intruders, or help the injured commoners.
“If you don’t believe me, try contacting commander-in-chief Granville. No, it would be a good idea to bring Granville-ajussi here. You might believe that I am Ha Leeha if you bring Commander Granville, and Commander Burke here!”
Leeha gradually began to get angry.
“T- th- that, of course, doesn’t that mean, as an individual, you have proved yourself during the war that you have gained monopoly for the commercial activity, but why, in this place-”
“In this place? What kind of place is this? Did you think it was such a place where you could hide behind and take care of yourself in case of danger and run away? You’re the nominal lord...... but what are you doing? You! You are the lord of this city! Where were you when the city was attacked by the Chimera, Golem, and Demon King’s army bastards!”
“W-what do you mean by that?! I’ve only been here for two days!”
Did he really think that the ‘real’ city lord, Leeha, would let him off the hook?
On the contrary, his shallow thoughts of rolling his eyes and still thinking about shirking away from responsibility were caught by Leeha.
“Have you requested reinforcements from the capital? When did the enemy invade? How long did they need to take over half of the city? Where did they invade from?”
“That- I- I didn’t face them myself, I only received a report-”
“O-o-of course!”
“But what are you just looking at? Do you think you need to escort the castle lord in this kind of situation?! All knights should patrol the outskirts of the city and investigate if there is anything dangerous! And you at the back! Aren’t you mages? Start treating the injured and dispose of the wreckage of destroyed buildings using magic! Move immediately!”
Sir, Yes, Sir!
“Ah, oh, you, you guys! I hired you! Where are you bastards going? You must protect me!”
The city lord cried pitifully, but all the NPCs were already in a situation where they could not disobey Leeha’s words.
It wasn’t just because of the dignity buff.
There was no one who would not be a meek sheep in the face of a gun of far more practical and real power than that.
“You, city lord...”
“Yes?”
Leeha rolled his sleeves while tying the Black Bass again.
Leeha thought he could confront authority with authority, but admittedly his thoughts were wrong this time.
“Uh, isn’t that a chimera’s skin there? It’s dangerous, Lord!”
“W-what- kuak!”
“Here! A fly! No, on the other side! Chimera skins have poison! It looks like it’s stuck!”
“Wait- Cough, wait!”
Pak, pak, pak, pak!
Sometimes, authority wasn’t even needed. It was because there was something better than law and authority.
Leeha tried to remove the chimera skin attached to the NPC lord’s body in a friendly and gentle manner.
“This! Why is it like this? Don’t take it off!”
However, it could not be separated. It was only natural. Because there really was no chimera skin stuck.
“Wait! Aak! Wait- Ha Leeha-nim-! Keuk, cough!”
The nearby NPCs barely held back their laughter and turned their heads. On the other hand, the surviving NPCs of Gaza City were relieved.
They were attacked and the city was half destroyed, but learned who the true lord of the castle was.
Dull thumps resounded incessantly until the rescuers arrived from the nearby neighboring city.
The rescue operation went smoothly. It was because no one interfered anymore, and Leeha had already laid the foundation considerably.
“Everyone with serious injuries has been evacuated. As soon as the treatment is over, they will be sent back to Gaza City.”
“You have worked hard, priest-nim.”
“It is nothing. I heard His Holiness the Pope mention Ha Leeha-nim’s name several times. I am more grateful that I was able to share even a bit of glory of the Lord with such a person.”
“Aigoo, I am more grateful that you said that.”
All NPC priests belonged to the Ezwen church.
Recently clearing the demon army quest including Blue Beard, the name of ‘Browless and his disciples’ had spread quite a bit in Ezwen.
“Then we will continue our treatment activities at the Gaza temple for the time being.”
“Yes. I look forward to it.”
After seeing off the priests who had been dispatched to rescue, Leeha started running around busily again. Literally, only those who were on the verge of death were evacuated to the ward, and there were still many minor injuries.
‘Still, people can be cured, but what should I do with the collapsed buildings and walls?’
The reports that came in non-stop to Leeha were by no means simple.
This time, it wasn’t only the chimeras that appeared, there were also the determined
Igor and Czar.
Of the total 150 members of Gaza Knights, 60 were killed and 50 more are in serious condition.
Another 30 people barely survived but had to focus on treatment for the time being. In fact, the knights were annihilated.
What about the walls?
The potions and reagents brought by Alchemist Crowley made the castle walls soft, and Faust’s undead crushed them all.
