Matan’s Shooter

Chapter 39

It converted 30% of Musket’s damage to melee damage for 15 seconds.

In addition, the musket could stab someone from a distance of 1.6m if all of its length was added up. 

At this level, it was similar to or more than the attack range of the Agonia Oso!

“Die, you bastard!!!!”

Puuuuk, Leeha clearly felt a sensation in his belly and hands that were holding the musket.

It was similar to the feeling of firmness when trying to forcefully cut raw pork belly, nevertheless, no matter how firm it is, it will still end up getting cut.

Kaaang…

Leeha’s eyes suddenly brightened.

[You leveled up.]

[You leveled up.]

[You leveled up.]

[Skill – Musket Mastery level has risen to 5.]

[Skill – Bayonet Charge level has risen to 3.]

Leveling up restored health to optimum condition.

White light covered Leeha’s body.

“Haa, Haa… Job… done?”

He clearly saw it. A huge brown bear with sparks still rising from its fur. Agonia Oso’s body was lying on the ground.

Seeing the body gradually turning gray, it must have died.

“Haha… hahahaha, what is this?”

Laughter escaped Leeha’s lips. Its belly was torn by the mana bayonet. When the blood from there turned gray, he realized it.

The hunt was successful. The bear that was called the fear of wizards and ranged dealers. 

It wasn’t an ordinary bear but the field boss, the Brown Bear, Agonia Oso.

“I caught it! Waah! What kind of power leveling is this?!”

What was with these tremendous rewards? He leveled up 9 times, and Musket Mastery and Bayonet Charge leveled up once and twice respectively!

The only party that was alive after all the raid members died, had already run away, which meant that the experience points were not shared.

As a result, he was the only one getting all the experience points.

“Fuhahah, is this what you call a steal? No, I don’t have anyone to share it with, so it is not a steal! I got it! Haha. I caught it!”

Even though he was a ranged dealer, he got a lot of health from achievement rewards.

Nevertheless, he would have died if he got hit one more time, but he didn’t give up and fought on. It wasn’t something other ranged dealers could do.

And a risk that no one would take.

[The Emperor of Solo Play (B+)] 

Congratulations! You defeated an enemy with a difference of 50 levels or higher alone. A brilliant victory awaits you, who is determined to die in battle.

Reward: 15 stat points.

You are the first registrant of the achievement  [The Emperor of Solo Play].

The first three registrants of the achievement will be recorded in the Hall of Fame, and an additional 200% of the existing effect is applied.

Effect: 30 stat points.

When you fight with the strong, you become stronger. 

Effect: Increases attack power by 10%, if there is 20 level difference or higher, the effect will be tripled.

“Amazing… Stat points…?” The achievement was great as well.

One new title and two new achievements. Besides, one of his achievements was B+, and he even entered the Hall of Fame.

‘W-well, it’s impossible to defeat something with a 50 level difference alone.’

What is level 50? In Middle Earth where solos are close to impossible with only a 10 level difference.

It was obvious when looking at level 25 users creating a party in order to hunt brown bears that were around level 35.

By the way, he caught it ‘alone’ with more than a 50 level difference.

If you thought about it carefully, you might even think that the rewards were too few. Still, he liked the way that it gave 15 bonus stat points instead of adding +3 to all stats.

If you were going to get the Emperor of Solo Play achievement, it would be better to get stats according to each job’s characteristics instead of getting an increase to all stats evenly.

Leeha stuck his tongue out for Goople’s meticulousness.

‘Besides, I am the first one, aren’t I? Hehe. What’s the title again? This is all mine.’

Damage increased by 10%.

It was a much better effect than raising strength and intelligence. To calculate the attack power, the weapon’s attack power was added to the threshold of the stats, and that was it. Anyway, just wearing that title meant that the total attack power was +10%.

‘If your agility is +1 or +2, your attack power will not be as much as 10%. If you think about it…’

It was better. Besides, it was 3 times as effective for opponents with 20 levels difference +30%?

‘It was the same at the time of Black Angus, and only the attack power of the musket was taken, but the 10 level difference was sufficiently balanced out. The 20 level difference was a bit scary, but it’s okay. Hehe, I just like everything!!’

Titles, achievements, and the Hall of Fame were good, but most importantly, the instinctive pleasure that made Leeha thrilled was the joy of living, the joy of a successful hunt.

Above all, the joy that his judgment was right.

Leeha read the notification window of achievements and titles, his body vibrating with suppressed excitement.

And another joy came.

‘Ah, then how many stats do I have now?’

Originally, his stat points were less than his accumulated points. But what about after leveling up, including the achievements and the Hall of Fame?

“Character window.”

Name: Ha Leeha / Race: Human

Job: Musketeer / Level: 21 (45%)

Title: Knows a little about weaknesses                

Achievement: 12 

HP ： 750 / MP ： 175 

Stats: Strength 35 (+25), 

Agility 88 (+58), 

Intelligence 30 (+20), 

Constitution 32 (+22), 

Mind 12 (+2).

Stat Points Remaining: 135. 

Leeha took a deep breath. By default, each stat started at 10. The situation where the abilities that were untouched were over 30.

‘But I still have 135 points left?’

15 and 30 additional achievements were due to the Hall of Fame. A total of 45 additions and 9 levels had been raised.

The character window was changed beyond what the following imagined.

‘I added almost 30 levels worth only with additional points such as achievements and food. Ha, really.’

What if he added up all the points he originally got from leveling up?

It is said that you can manage up to level 50 without any achievement.

‘I have to use it now. I will leave 15 points in case of an emergency, and use the remaining 120.’ 

Previously, he thought he could be at ease because he only hunted normal monsters, but now he had changed my mind. Even if it wasn’t a field boss, he didn’t know when and where something would happen.

He won’t take such chances anymore.

Leeha added 80 points in agility, 5 points each for strength and intelligence, and 30 points to constitution.

Now, his agility is 168.

And his Constitution is 62.

His HP rose from 750 to 1350 at once after adding points to constitution.

With that, his health was now only slightly lower than that of a tanker and higher than that of a melee dealer. 

How much more agility?

His job was a musketeer, a ranged dealer. In the area of destructive power, users on the same level won’t be able to hold a candle to Leeha.

And another reward came to mind.

“Waa… This is really crazy.”

Laughter escaped Leeha’s mouth. He got a lot of stats. However, when he thought about it he realized that he would also monopolize the items.

‘No, I haven’t gotten the items of Agonia Oso yet, but what is this?’

There were shiny items littered all over the ground. Of the 20 users, aside from the 5 users from Petal Kim’s party, 15 had died.

Among the ones who died, a lot of them dropped items. The probability of an item drop might be around 60%.

There were a whopping nine items worth between levels 20 and 30. Various weapons, armor, shoes, among other things. were swept into Leeha’s bag.

‘These must have been expensive. I would have struggled to buy these. I would have cried because it’s such a waste to buy it again.’

It would have been really bad.

Of course, he didn’t have the heart to give it back, but he had a big heart that felt empathy.

He giggled and hurried to gather the users’ items before they disappeared, and then stood in front of Agonia Oso. He checked the items dropped by the Field Boss.

‘Come out weapons, weapons, weapons!’

Hap.

‘All of them are excellent grade!’

It wasn’t the weapon that Leeha was wishing for, especially a Musket, but he felt relieved when he saw that the items were all excellent grade.

They had no level limit, but due to the nature of Middle Earth, they had stat restrictions. Leather armor was mainly used by melee dealers or ranged dealers.

Of course, unusual wizards would increase 

strength or agility, but such people were rare.

‘What is its defense… The shoes have twice the defense of my current armor, doesn’t it? No, the hat alone has more defense than his current equipment… It was the armor that was exchanged for catching Black Angus. However, the difference between the grade of the items was bound to create a huge difference.

In addition, Black Angus was a hidden boss of Candle Castle, but it was a much lower level monster compared to Agonia Oso.

‘First, I’ll add 8 points to the constitution stat.’

Leeha’s current constitution was 62 points. 

Adding 8 points out of the 15 left, his constitution reached 70. It satisfied the condition of wearing the coat, and with a single movement, he wore it like in the movies.

If it was a coat, you could wear it over clothes.

Users could wear cloaks on top of iron armors and coats on top of leather or cloth armor.

“Waa… It’s awesome.”

He could tell without looking at a mirror. The long coat that reached his calf was fitted perfectly to his body, making him look like a skilled hunter.

He changed the shoes he received at level 5 right away, so he looked completely different from a few hours before he left Candle Castle.

A leather coat with dark red bear fur on khaki leather armor. The pants were worn out, but the luxurious leather shoes were rather spirited that it gave a vintage look on the pants.

And the hunting cap gave Leeha sharp eyes.

Not only in appearance, it also added 

ability value and increased movement speed.

With this level of performance, it must be at least level 60 for a “normal” item and level 70 for a “crude” item.

In fact, Leeha did not know that it was only the defensive value that was similar, the additional effects were not included.

Furthermore, no one could even dream of something like the “additional set effect” of items that could only be obtained by catching the field boss.

“Haha. Hahahaha.”

Leeha could not stop the laughter that was leaking out of his mouth.

After equipping the items and grabbing the miscellaneous items, Leeha began to move.

‘It is now time to go to the capital. I’m lucky to have things go well on the first day.’

Wasn’t he lucky? Out of the hundred users who would encounter Leeha’s situation, 99 would have thought that they had the worst start…

Upon leaving for the capital, you met a brown bear and died.

A 48-hour access penalty and a level-down. In reality, a 48-hour connection was a loss of 10 days in Middle Earth.

In addition, before the brown bear could be hunted by someone, it will wander around, kill users, and prevent Leeha from going to the capital.

In fact, even though he should have been worried about the quest failure… Full of energy, Leeha sped up his pace while humming.

“The weather is nice~!”
