Matan’s Shooter

Chapter 92

[New Land in the Sea of Dawn]

Description: Fernand has not returned since he left his last letter. Now that each country is frantic about exploring the new continent, Fernand, the Pioneering King, is like Fibiel’s treasure! 

Find Fernand somewhere in the continent and bring him to the Fibiel Royal Palace.

Description: Arrive at Aelstock, the capital of Fibiel Kingdom, with Fernand.

Reward: 

Participation in the expedition to the new continent. 

Fibiel Kingdom’s national contribution +50. 

Condition of failure: Fernand participates in the expedition of another country.

– Do you accept?

‘Hmm?’

Quest? Was the shining light to give the quest?

But, Leeha thought it was absurd, Fernand was a user, and the quest was to bring a user?

‘If the quest referred to him as the ‘Pioneering King’ Fernand…… It might have been because of achievement.’

Judging from the contents of the reward, the purpose was to include Fernand in the expedition to the new continent.

And if he succeeded in bringing Fernand, he would also be able to join the expedition.

‘Of course, that was only the start of the quest…… After succeeding, and being included in the expedition, the real quest will start.’

Besides, if it was only bringing a user, wouldn’t it be too easy?

Leeha pressed the accept button first.

[You have acquired Fernand’s Last Letter.]

The last letter……? Another scroll popped out of bookshelf.

Was it hidden by magic? Leeha carefully opened Fernand’s last letter.

[I saw it. A huge land in the rising sun of the east……. At that time, if the strength of our fleet was even a little strong, we would have been able to land. Your majesty, please invest in us once more. Grant our wishes for the new continent once more.]

“Grant our wishes ……?”

Does that mean he had the intention of going? But why was the quest asking to bring him?

‘Ah……. He had been rejected.’

The king had not changed since the Human-Demon war. Of course, the current king. He rejected Fernand’s request.

“Fixing the barn and losing the cow…… it was the same whether reality or game.”

It seemed like the rulers of any country are the same. It was only after he disappeared that the king realized the importance of the Adventure and Pioneering King.

In any case, if Fernand still had the heart for the expedition, talking to him would be quick. Now, if the king just lets Fernand know that he is willing to invest, Fernand will come back.

‘And his location…’

If one is a user, there should be a way to find him. Cause there’s the whisper. Of course, Leeha was confident because of that.

The light on the bookshelf had disappeared. Maybe it was trying to give a hint about the quest.

‘Good. First of all, I was able to get a profit, other than my main purpose.’

The places and monsters to hunt in the future were roughly grasped and a quest was also obtained.

Satisfied with his profits, Leeha moved quietly.

‘It’s been over an hour and a half already. I still haven’t found the bookshelf.’

Now that he thought about it, time was running out. Anxiety crept in. In addition, some NPCs were also seen wandering around from a while ago.

Leeha raised his five senses and looked at another bookshelf.

He had another thirty minutes.

It was now almost two hours after he infiltrated the Royal Archives.

With a dizzying name of [Organizational Collection of Monsters Following the Demon King’s Fragment].

It was a place full of bookshelves with the words ‘Records on the Second Human-Demon War’ 

written at the bottom.

‘It’s here…… There’s a lot.’

An overview of the Fragment of the Demon King, the places it appeared, and the records of ancient documents related to the Fragment of the Demon King……. The characteristics of the Fragment of the Demon King, the characteristics of the monster corps led by the Fragment of the Demon King, their invasion route, and location of the invasion, are made with individual scrolls.

How long would it take to look at all these scrolls? A week? A fortnight? It is not a quantity that could be read in just a few hours or days.

‘Oh, I’m curious! But I don’t have time right now!’

I’ll check it out later.

I need to get through the bookshelves and find my main purpose first. I need to find the information and get out of here within an hour.

‘A report on the Battle of Marching Plains… this is it.’

Only 33 related scrolls. A huge amount for a report on a single battle! Leeha quickly unfolded the scrolls.

‘It’s the start of the battle…… No, not this.’

Flip, flip, flip.

He quickly scanned the scrolls. Familiar names appeared in the records of the battle.

‘Lepanto! Haha, it’s not even listed with the nickname Skewer, but it was written that he belonged to the 3rd Army’s 67th Assault Regiment.’

Regarding the supply, the name of the Aelstock weapon shop owner was also visible. There were also records on Browless’s detached unit.

‘Operation with Rapid Fire Browless……. After all, if you’re as talented as the Three Musketeers, you can’t put it into any operation.’

And if this came out, the report should also be here. They haven’t seen Mr. and Mrs. Brown, since Browless returned from the operation.

‘Where is it……’

Sureureureuk, slowly as Leeha opened the scroll, Leeha finally saw a familiar name.

‘Operation where Piercing Brown and Bullseye Elizabeth were a part of. Operation name: Fragmentation.’

The operation of the Human Allied Forces to pierce the enemy’s heart at once…!

Leeha could not contain his excitement as he looked at the bold yet detailed outline of the operation.

‘This is great. They were using the sniper properly.’

It was an operation made by a man who knew well that removing the commander would weaken the enemy’s system.

‘Was that the reason why the two of them went?’

‘In the end, it did not happen.’

The plan to lead the monster army and have the sniper look for a gap did not have any loopholes.

However, as Leeha continued to read, he saw another letter.

Destroy Operation.

Reason for Cancellation: Missing agents.

-Appendix: A collection of oral reports on the disappearance of the agents.

‘Found it!’

Leeha opened his bag after checking the amount of time left.

Step, step, step. 

There was a sound. No matter how Leeha was engrossed on reading the scrolls, he was able to tell that it was the sound of footsteps.

‘Damn it!’

The sound grew louder.

It’s coming. He didn’t know their purpose, but their direction was clear. Leeha quickly opened the bag.

“Lively! Lively!”

“Hey, you puck!”

“Take a look at the Second Human-Demon war side! Lotzak-nim suddenly asked me to check it out!”

“The Magician Commander? But what do I check?”

“I don’t know. Can’t you check if there’s something missing? It was said that an undesirable guest entered the Royal Palace.”

“A record missing at the Royal Archives? It should not be possible. Haha.”

“That’s true. Still. It would be better to check. I’m going to look for the documents on the Three Musketeer’s side, so go take a look at the Human-Demon side.”

As Clark spoke and moved, Lively also moved his feet. It was a long way to the Second Human-Demon War category.

“He went to the nearest place while sending me to the farthest. Anyway, why did old man Lotzak suddenly want to check? This is the 1st Human-Demon War and the Minis War over……. Here is-”

The moment Lively turned and went through the bookshelf!

“There’s nothing here.”

Nothing caught his eyes. Only scrolls arranged neatly as usual.

“The scrolling number…… is right.”

In an instant, the NPC’s face hardened. Battle of Marching Plains, a total of 33 scrolls.

“Uh, uh!! Boss!!!”

“What is it? Why? Why?”

Lively’s face turned blue.

What did Lotzak know? He quickly turned back and ran towards the entrance.

“The scroll order! The order has been changed! The order of the last three are different!”

“The order? What are you talking about?”

“The order of the scrolling is-！”

Clark, who ran gaspingly, looked at him in bewilderment.

It was a mistake that humans could make, but it was an unacceptable mistake for NPCs.

“Battle of the Marching Plains! The order of these scrolls is different!”

“The Marching Plains? At that moment, a familiar noise was heard by the two NPCs.

Kukuku…….

The entrance to the Royal Archives was opening. There was only one case where it opens without a reaction from mana. It was not to enter but to exit.

“Emergency!!”

Clark and Lively ran at the same time

“Haa, haa.”

He almost got caught! He almost used all his time up.!

He expected that it wouldn’t open quietly, but Leeha didn’t expect it to1 be so damn loud. 

Besides that, he heard a shout at the end.

‘Emergency? They are calling for an emergency? So what will happen?’

Will alarms sound? He thought about it, but he did not stop his steps. Leeha exhaled and left the 

Royal Archives.

‘If I get caught, it’s over. But I can’t even run!’

About 20 minutes until the time limit. At around 20:40 pm in the Royal Palace, an outsider without a special purpose was running around all of a sudden?

No matter what happens, it was perfect to get people’s attention and become the primary suspect.

Leeha thought about walking as casually as possible, but he couldn’t help but worry.

Step, step, step.

Leeha climbed the stairs with an alarming speed.

‘Please don’t come, please, please, please.’

However, not everything you wish for would come true. As soon as he went up half the stairs, he heard a shout.

“Catch him! Where did he go! Run! Run!”

He heard voices from behind.

Step, step, step, The sound of fast running steps entered Leeha’s ear in an instant.

‘To run? Or not to run?’

Leeha worried for a moment. The problem is that there was no one else in the Eastern Palace besides Leeha! Leeha also started running.

I should not get caught!

Leeha jumped up the stairs almost flying and run toward the entrance f the Eastern Palace. 

There must be a guard outside the palace, will they just let me go? But he couldn’t help it, he would be forced to breakthrough!

“Huh?”

“Uh?”

Paak–!

The guards stared blankly at the strange sight.

In haste, a man ran out of the palace and bumped into someone. Even the person he bumped into was not an ordinary person.

“Keuh…… Who is running out of the palace at night!”

“I-I’m sorry!”

Leeha couldn’t even lift his head and got up and moved his feet, but he felt a hand grabbing his shoulder.

“Right now, due to an emergency, everything in the Eastern Palace- huh? Ha Leeha-ssi?” Leeha felt a strong force. However, what was more surprising was the voice behind that force. Besides, it was someone who was able to recognize Leeha…?

Leeha slowly lifted his head and looked at the person’s face.

“Sir… Syndergaard?”

“Ahaha, it has been a while. You’re already able to come to the Royal Palace?”

The armor of the Sacred Knight shone in the moonlight.

Syndergaard greeted Leeha with a pleasant smile, but Leeha did not even have time to reply.

Just then, he heard a noise behind his back.

“Oh!! Sacred Knight! You got him! You caught him!”

“Haa, that person, haa, that person-!” Clark and Lively ran up the stairs and approached Leeha.

The NPCs of the Sacred Knight, Royal Archives, and Royal Palace Guard.

Leeha wanted to cry.

“Chief Clark and Librarian Lively.”

“Good job, Sacred Knight.”

“What are you talking about?”

“He, haa, he is presumed to have entered the Royal Records illegally.”

Clark and Lively told Syndergaard while gasping.
