Arcane Sniper [Matan’s Shooter]

“Wake up! What are you doing sleeping all day? You were sleeping when I went to work, and you’re still sleeping now?”

“……It’s already been so long?”

He was so tired that he wanted to stretch, but Leeha didn’t want his mother to see it.

Leeha opened his eyes, barely chasing away his tiredness.

If he had slept for nearly twelve hours, it meant that two and a half days would have already passed in Middle Earth.

“Yes. Hurry up and eat, I bought your favorite jowl meat~ Shall we have a cup of Soju together as well?”

“Wow?! With alcohol? Did anything good happen?”

His mother hardly ever drank alcohol, but she used to buy some on special occasions. Besides, there was jowl meat! It was very special meat to Leeha, who rarely went out after the incident.

“Today is my payday.”

“Still, I guess the ajumma didn’t take it and gave it to you? When you look at what she usually says, her personality is a little-”

“Hey, don’t say that. Even if she is a bit naggy, she gives me my pay on time. Wash up and get ready to eat, I will grill the meat.”

“I understand, omma! Oh, I also have money coming in today. Should I send it to your account?”

Leeha made an exaggerated gesture and asked his mother.

To others, he is a 32-year-old, but he is still a child to his mother. And Leeha knew that his mother treated him like a ‘baby’. He was embarrassed about it, but if this type of aegyo is filial piety, he must do his duty.

“What money is coming in again?”

“It’s that, the money from the game I play.”

“Hmm, okay. Omma will take care of it. We will use it to pay for your treatment.”

“Okay, do you want a surprise?”

“What surprise? Do you have any surprises?”

“No, no, no. Okay, then please prepare the meal first!”

Leeha pulled his wheelchair and went to prepare the table. And while his mother was grilling the meat, he connected to the internet and looked for gold trading partners.

‘Amazing.’

The gold that was difficult to obtain in Middle Earth could be traded in all currencies worldwide.

In addition, ‘gold’ was linked with an account within Middle Earth, allowing immediate transactions.

‘In the case of items, I have to log on to a separate site to post and sell-’

Gold getting connected to an account meant that he didn’t need access to the game to find a transaction target on the internet. The demand was always high….

[The transaction has been completed.]

[The transaction has been completed.]

[The transaction has been completed.]

“This much is enough, right?”

Leeha sold the gold with a happy heart. Of course, he kept some for himself.

For various quests to be done in the future, even if his funds were overflowing, it always felt insufficient when calculating the cost of the expensive legendary class [Black Bass].

‘And while the meat is being grilled~’

Leeha searched for information about Fernand. A user who did not receive whispers. What should he do to meet him?.

‘He is not a man that could be looked down on. It means that he is a player on the level of Shin Nara or Petyr.’

He had no such thing as a title, but Middle Earth’s system created a quest for the user named Fernand.

The information on the internet made Leeha even more confused.

‘They saw the Pioneering King in the Freeca Forest…. The Pioneering King is in the Zaire Hill…. The Pioneer King appeared in Para Simak…. What is this?’

They were posted at the same time, but they are all in different places. The areas weren’t even close to each other.

[Title: The Pioneering King is good at fishing!]

I’m a wanderer that walks through unexplored areas, but does levelers as you see? Just look in the mirror

-Those who don’t even know the face of the Pioneering King are going crazy

‘Ah…… are they all just clickbaits?’

After reading the article, Leeha was able to find out the true nature of the popular articles. The world is wide and it is filled with bored people. And there was no way Middle Earth’s information could be easily obtained through the internet. Also, information about such a mysterious person is even rarer.

“Son! Let’s eat!”

“Yes, I’m coming!”

After preparing for the big meal, Leeha took up a cup of soju and offered it to his mother.

“Please take this.”

“Are you in a good mood today too?”

“I am always in a good mood.”

After watching his mother drink her soju, Leeha picked up his smartphone.

‘If mother sees this, she might pass out.’

And Leeha quickly completed the transfer.

“Omma, you got a message.”

“Huh? We’re eating, who’s messaging me?”

Mumbling, his mother picked up her phone.

Leeha quietly turned on the recording and filmed his mother. To capture the moment, his mother stopped, her nose flared, and her eyes widened.

“T-This? What is this? Pff-！”

“Uwah! Ah, omma! Why are you so surprised.”

“S-Sorry. By the way, this money……”

He fully understood why his mother stuttered and scattered her food.

“It’s just like that. Would you like another drink?”

He even had another bottle of soju. He watched as his mother got up and came with a large glass.

“I can’t do it with that cup. Pour it in this one.”

His mother poured so much soju into the glass that he could hear the sound of her drinking it in one go. Glug glug glug-! Leeha looked at her with a puzzled expression, but from his mother’s point of view, this was worth the celebration.

[Hanil Bank]12/04 20:15

097601**334**48

Ha Leeha

Electronic Transfer: 108,150,000

Balance: 119,775,130

Leeha had 1,481 gold in total, set aside 500 gold, and sold the rest.

981 gold was exchanged for cash and the amount less the transfer fee was 18.15 million won.

“It’s a pre-Christmas present. I will give you as much as possible on Christmas day.”

Tears flowed down from Leeha’s mother’s eyes and flowed down her cheeks.

“Hey, if you cry while drinking, then we won’t be able to eat together.”

Leeha wiped his mother’s tears, but couldn’t stop them from flowing from her eyes.

“Y-your legs…… Leeha……

“Do not worry. At this time next year at the earliest……. We can go to Germany together. Omma. you said you never went abroad before.”

Leeha’s mother cried tears of joy and relief. A sense of pride bloomed in Leeha’s heart as he hugged his weeping mother.

With the current rate, he was earning. If he could just earn a little bit more and get a little stronger, how much could he shorten it?

Of course, the reason they had to go to Germany was not for a vacation. It would be to go to a hospital for Leeha’s treatment.

Leeha smiled hoping for a happy future.

‘If you laugh and cry, big things will happen…… Why is my butt suddenly getting itchy?

‘Phew, 500 gold!

Good, good.”

When Leeha connected to Middle Earth, whispers from several people came. The second group, who joined the quest and finished later than Leeha wanted to hear about the additional details.

Leeha explained the situation to Kijeong and Jacheong, and headed to the Holy Grill.

“Vodka martini, shaken, not stirred.”

“Follow me.”

Leeha was guided to Madam Ju through the crowd of the Holy Grill that was still bustling.

Contrary to the peaceful atmosphere on the floor, there was a sense of tension in the room with Madam Ju.

“What’s going on?”

“Huh, Ha Leeha-ssi, is it really happening?”

“What?”

Leeha tilted his head, and Madame Ju narrowed her eyes as she looked at Leeha.

“I thought we were special companions.”

“T…… That’s right. Well, it’s not just you.”

“Are you telling me that you did not intend to tell us about the war? Do you know how serious this is for our Intelligence Guild?”

It was only then that Leeha sensed Madame Ju’s aura.

Why did Ram Hwayeon return to Dale Castle in a hurry, even Shin Nara and Leeha were moving together?

It was because war-related secrets can have various preemptive effects the sooner they are obtained.

“A-ahh! Have you heard it already? I was just about to tell! Oh no, I’m a step late.” The information guild was surely fast. It’s a matter of course though. Leeha quickly sat down with Madam Ju.

“Hmm, I have already heard of it long ago! Besides that, it is said that something happened in the royal palace? A spy from Minis snuck in and tried to assassinate the king. There were even rumors that Ha Leeha-ssi stopped it.”

The achievement went to the person who caused the greatest damage up to their death

In other words, the fact that Leeha won the achievement of Ranker Hunter – Petyr meant that he actually blocked the assassination.

He received Biyemi’s help, but Madam Ju’s words were not wrong. Of course, but Leeha didn’t readily acknowledge it.

“What did I stop! Thanks to Madame Ju, who informed Shin Nara, we were able to do this and that. Nara-ssi wants to give you her thanks.”

“Anyway……. This is no better than a betrayal.”

“Please don’t say that. Now that I have gained some royal intimacy, I will let you know as soon as there is anything that will help the intelligence guild next time.”

“Really?”

“Of course! Instead… Please take a look at this.”

Only then did Leeha bring up the main point. Two pieces of advanced information that cannot be obtained online.

“What?”

“I need to find a man named Fernand. And the base of the dark elves.”

“Fernand…… The Pioneering King?”

“You know about him?”

“I know him. Thanks to that person, the leader is making a killing. But now, he’s a bit hard to find… That’s right.”

“Huh? Why?”

“We need to prepare for war. Besides, we would need to search all over the continent to find Fernand, and it would be difficult with the shortage of manpower.”

Information related to the enemy country will be sold to the Royal Palace at a high price. In other words, the Intelligence guild had no other choice but to put all their resources there.

Thanks to Leeha, they were able to set up this store, but it was too big to even call it a bleeding service. Leeha grasped Madame Ju’s intentions and his bargaining skill was activated quickly.

“Still! If the Intelligence Guild couldn’t do that-”

“It’s unexplored, but he’s a wanderer. We have our own difficulties too. However, I will let you know as soon as information about the pioneering king comes in from another city.”

“Phew,…. How much do I need to give you?”

“Sorry. I didn’t want to say this to Ha Leeha-ssi either.”

“I see alright……. Then, tell me about the dark elf base. For free.” Leeha lowered his head with a sad expression as much as possible. And spat that out as if it was natural.

“Hmm?”

“Hehe, you know? Our special relationship, Madam Ju-nim?”

She tried to get information from Leeha about the royal palace, but now their position was reversed.

“……You’re truly a sly one.”

Madam Ju looked at Leeha and shook her head. Leeha smiled while unfolding his map.
