Blaugrunn sighed and trudged away from Leeha. Come on, come on! Transform already! Into Toon!

Indeed, why bear the burdens of the heart alone in silence?

Its definitely the headmaster. Just need to utilize whats around me!

If Browless had heard, he would have protested that it wasnt what he meant, but by then, Leehas switch had already been flipped on.

Transforming will be hard enough without having to roar like Toon-

Ah, forget about the roaring. Just transform, quickly!

Blaugrunn grumbled inwardly about the requesters attitude but didnt forget to cast the spell.

In a flicker of turquoise light, standing before Leeha was not the human form of a bronze dragon.

A 44 meter tall dinosaur with blue Scales for a left arm and second-in-command.

Toon!

Toon was there.

If low-level users passing by had seen, they would have been terrified, possibly collapsing to the ground.

Woahhhhhh!

Toon released a long cry. However, compared to the roars heard during the conquest of demonic bases or enemy waves, it felt somewhat lacking.

Hm, seems a bit off?

Roarrrr cough, cough! Of course! As Ive said earlier, polymorph is about changing the appearance! I can manage a decent imitation of the voice, but not the power within.

Leeha pondered aloud, to which Toon, mid-roar, coughed embarrassingly.

It couldnt be helped. What was visible was the form of Toon, but the essence was Blaugrunn.

Ew! Its weird! The voice sounds different from Toons too!

Ah! What does that matter! Leeha-nim only wanted Toons form in the first place!

Well, still. The atmosphere should be more intimidating. Id get scared againor rather, saying Id get scared isnt quite right Anyway, the atmosphere needs to be right for me to properly conduct the test.

Leeha teased Blaugrunn, who had transformed into Toon.

Deliberately deepening his voice to mimic Toon, Blaugrunns cheeks turned red.

Of course, in the form of Toon!

A dinosaur of 44 meters tall blushing would probably have more of an effect than any mental attack spell.

Anyway, just get on with it. Ill be here, casting barriers and going koo-wooo.

Okay. Wait for it.

Leeha quickly put some distance between them and Toon.

Using a Kentucky Musket but combining it with the Snipe skill allowed for engaging from a distance of 400 meters to be effective. Especially when fighting an oversized monster like Toon, being at close range would actually be a disadvantage.

Close-range dealers might have it easy since they can hit Toon anywhere, but for someone like me

Preferring to aim for one-hit kills, a musketeer found it challenging to be up close with large monsters.

With the Black Bass and its multi-warhead capability, Leeha would have been firing recklessly, but at the moment, Black Bass was with Bottleneck.

Holding the musket, adopting its battle method was only natural.

Alright, alright. I can do this.

Leeha didnt look back and finished loading the Kentucky Musket. The distance was about 400 meters.

The Stabilizer?No. Yes! Thinking of making it more comfortable to shoot from a standing position, Leeha recalled the support gadget, the Stabilizer, crafted sometime back. But then, the idea of Jellypong came to mind. It could extend infinitely and harden to any degree desired.

Jellypong! Can you support this? [Dong dong!]

Whoosh-!

Jellypongs arm supported the bottom of the Kentucky Musket, effectively acting as an excellent shooting stand.

Leeha gave a thumbs up and aimed at Toon in the distance.

Hoohoo Snipe.

Whoosh!

The barrel of the Kentucky Musket gleamed. Leeha aimed the muzzle at Toons head. Despite being 400 meters away, aiming for the head of the tall Toon required the muzzles angle to be raised significantly.

Blaugrunn: Leeha-nim, ready to proceed.

Leeha: Okay.Huff, huff.

The aim was perfect. There was no influence from the direction or speed of the wind. All that was left was to pull the trigger. Damn, thats not even a Toon. Its a Blaugrunn.

Back when jests were made before creating distance, Leeha had his concerns. Would it be possible to practice sniping using the light and skittish Toon as targets?

Recalling those low-level days, he shook his head at the struggle to obtain expensive items like gunpowder or steel balls.

Your heart might have been at ease, but physically, it was anything but comfortable.

Oh, Kidd! Did you ever go through something like that?

What are you talking about?

After stealing a glance at the Miyau musketeer, he quickly caught up with Kidd walking ahead.

He had not gotten more than NPC-level advice from Browless, but perhaps Kidd would be different.

Its um, how do I put this.

When you couldnt shoot at your target.

Whether its a syndrome, a mental block, or a slump.

Any term would do to describe those times when your body wouldnt respond, regardless of your will.

That was what he wanted to discuss.

To put it bluntly, when City Kazua installed an Enhancement-Only Forge and didnt say a word to me, are you talking about times like that?

Eh? Wha?!

Kidds retort was unexpectedly sharp.

Do you think I wouldnt know? I go there daily for ammo supplies. Even a goldfish wouldnt think that.

No, I didnt think you wouldnt know but- Ah! So thats why youre upset?! I wondered why you were being cold!

It was a rare chance for a one-on-one talk, and Kidd couldnt possibly dislike it!

Despite the grumbling demeanor, it was clear Kidd had a certain fondness for him.

Understanding this, he clapped his hands in realization, but it only seemed to irritate Kidd further.

Not. At. All.

Wait, just a minute! Hey, whats gotten into Kidd-nim again. You dont think Id stop you from using it because were both Musketeers, do you?

Ive already been told that unless its a VIP specified by the lord, its not allowed.

Eh? You spoke to Bottleneck about it, not just saw it!

Kidd cleared his throat, embarrassed.

When he first used the Magma Eruption skill to enhance the Wand of Ram Hwajung, he had made it clear to Bottleneck.

No enhancement requests should be accepted from anyone but his designated users.

Heh, Bottleneck mentioned something about the Musketeers, so I thought maybe but- you actually went to him!

I did.

-I didnt know- What?

The analysis is complete. Its just that the timing hasnt been right for the enhancement.

You had it analyzed!? By whom? When!

Clearly, Bottleneck wasnt one to simply follow orders.

At least when it came to matters concerning the Musketeers, his requests were like a free pass from the NPC.

He looked at Kidd with astonishment.

Though he was a bit annoyed remembering Bottlenecks stained beard, it was hardly something to be upset about.

A friendly competitor and rival of Middle Earth.

There was no reason to hinder Kidd and Lugers progress.

Anyway, I wouldve let them eventually Darn, I wanted to see you struggle without the enhancements!

He was only disappointed for losing the chance to tease Kidd a bit more.
