Chapter 617
Yes, I am
Could you please be quiet for a moment?
What do you mean
Leeha didnt respond any further. The most crucial thing at this moment was focus! And the silence around!
How dare you! To speak to the Cardinal in such a manner
The face of a bishop NPC, who caught up late to hear Leehas words, flushed red, but Leeha was already in a state where such things were no longer heard.
The only concern right now was the sensation in the index finger.
Baaaaang!
A louder and more tremendous tolling of a gun resounded than ever before.
Wow!?
Click!
It was no ordinary gunshot. Centered around where Leeha stood, it was an act of attack accompanied by powerful vibrations strong enough to stir up the dust.
Oh!? Ouch.
Leeha, who was in a shooters stance, was pushed back and lost balance enough to stumble due to the recoil.
Leeha-ssi, are you all right!?
Uh, Im fine butjust a moment Leeha detached the hands of Blaugrunn assisting him and checked the scope first. Then, he pointed with his finger.
Do you all see that over there?
See what?
Im not sure what youre suggesting. We dont see anything.
Blaugrunn and Fernand shook their heads.
Leeha flicked his fingers and showed an expression of regret.
Thats a shame. I cant show you the manticore falling. Oh, but Cardinal Romero? Didnt you mention something about Ghibrids messenger or something? One shot, right?
One shot?
Romero pronounced one shot with difficulty as if he had just learned to speak, causing the bishop NPCs to look at the cardinal in confusion.
Cardinal Romero?
One shot? What does one shot mean, may I ask?
Really? Youve come from the Vatican and you dont know what that means? Ah! Is it because I was too vague? Hmm What I mean is, why did the manticore, the whatever of Ghibrid, die in just one shot?
Leeha asked nonchalantly, but Romero still had a blank face.
Blaugrunn and Fernand were bewildered.
Leeha-ssi? Did you just
Ah, how far did you say it was?
Seeing their dumbfounded expressions, Leeha sighed. It was regrettable but true; he did take it down in one shot, yet explaining the situation himself felt bitter.
Yes, the manticore is dead. Sigh Anyway, it was the distance that was the issue. A manticore should definitely be above level 250! That damn thing was incredibly fast. I thought I shot it before it entered within 3.5km but
Leeha aimed for a one-hit lethal shot.
To test the power of Black Bass enhanced by Bottleneck, and in the meantime, to clear the quest Seal of Black Bass-5.
The manticore was indeed a monster-level creature surpassing 250 levels.
It would have been a clear shot if it stayed still, but during the aiming and the bullets flight, the distance moved by the creature exceeded 100m, barely resulting in its death within the 3,500m range.

That Thats over a distance of 3km, anyway
Oh, why are you making such a fuss? Hehe, youve seen it, right!? Ill surely guard you as steadfastly as a Cardinal, so, when you enter the Vatican, please speak well of me to the Pope. Ahem, well, not that Im desiring any reward but You know, right?
Leeha showed Romero a bright smile.
The astonishing and audacious achievement of Leeha rendered the bishop NPC standing beside Romero utterly unable to express any further anger.
Lets go! Forward march! Weve almost reached halfway!
Leeha once again led his forces towards the [Divine Staff].
The joy and the accomplishment of capturing the manticore were indeed events worth being elated over. However, the failure to seriously contemplate why the manticore was here, where it was headed, or why it had revealed itself at this moment was, at this point, a clear oversight by Leeha.
[Executor and Proxy of Ghibrids Will and Purpose]
Being the first to know of the manticores demise was a privilege reserved for those entrusted with its will and purpose.
[Achievement: One Shot, one Kill Creator of Chimera (S-)]
Congratulations! With a single strike, you have dispatched Ghibrids emissary, the manticore! The demonic aura is already enveloping the continent of Middle Earth. What you need moving forward is formidable power and the will to achieve it. May you rescue the Gods creatures from the grip of the demon king.

Oh, its definitely an S- rank!
Proud of himself for slaying such a creature in a single blow, Leeha reviewed the details of his achievement.
If the S- rank one-hit achievement had been triggered, the level must have been over 250.
It was regrettable, once again, that he had been slightly too far away to clear the Black Beast quest.
Plus, additional attack power against flying monsters! The extra damage doesnt really matter since Ill likely never get hit anyway but Huh?
If it includes all flying monsters?
It occurred to Leeha that dragons fell within that category. Being large and flying types, their already formidable attack power would increase by a total of 30%
Hehe, maybe another one will show up? This time, Ill definitely take it down from 3.5km away. Id like to see that, Mr. Manticore!
Leehas spirits were high enough to want to draw in again the monster that had given Cardinal Romero and Blaugrunn the chills.
A chimera creating chimera, you say
Yes. Thats another name for the manticore. You heard what the bishop said earlier, didnt you?
Uh What did they say?
Ah, come on, the emissary delivering Ghibrids will! Thats whats annoying about it.
What does it do?
Huh? Leeha-ssi just told you.
