“Are you going to sell everything?”
“Yes.”
“With the money we have in the store, I can’t afford this-”
“Ah! It’s fine; just give whatever you have. Give all of your money, potions, scrolls, and whatever else you have on you.”
“Y-yes, I got it. Understood.”
The rchant NPC crouched behind the tent and opened the supply box. They weren’t in a big city, and even the NPCs didn’t carry much cash. After all, this was a lawless zone.
“Smile, audience! Isn’t it a unique experience to hang out with clowns?”
“Wahahaha!”
“Those bastards didn’t even listen to when I asked for a duel!”
While waiting for the rchant, the man heard noises. The man frowned as he heard cheers from other users.
“……Another pointless fight. They should just level up.”
The man looked at them as if they were pathetic.
Of course, he knew that the rampaging people were from the Midnight Circus.
“Hmm-”
But, this ti, who was their victim? The man frowned. He could tell who the clowns were going after.
“Luger? N-no. Luger was a brunette. So, what exactly is it? Who exactly is it?”
He looked at the man, or more precisely, at the long weapon he was holding.
As far as the man was aware, only one person in Middle Earth used such a weapon, and that person was a different person.
“Right, it’s a trial version. This bastards. Delicate Hand Movent, Snipe, Soul Link!”
Waaak-!
A red light suddenly exploded out of nowhere. The light was enough to make even the man frown for a mont.
‘Ooh-lala, he summoned a bear. A bea – no, isn’t that a field boss?’
Impossible. Field bosses were not normal monsters!
The man already knew that they cannot be tad or summoned. However, whoever the Midnight Circus’ target was did it.
‘That’s like a summoner’s hidden weapon-.’
Even before he could finish thinking about it, the ‘long weapon’ the man had been paying close attention to made a noise.
Baaang—!
With that one sound, the life of one of the clowns ended.
“-not! T-that…… Luger’s gun? No, it can’t be…… Who is he?”
That was what caught the man’s attention. The battle with the clowns, which he considered useless, suddenly beca interesting.
‘No, it’s different. It’s not just the hair color. The color of the item is different. Luger’s is
blue.’
Luger’s looked more like a cannon than a gun.
The thickness and length were also different. The one used by the unknown man was easy to see, and it was thinner and shorter than Luger’s.
‘It was a familiar move to handle guns, but he’s not very familiar with one-on-one combat. Well, it’s bound to happen if you’re not used to fighting against the clowns of the Midnight Circus…… still, the close combat reaction is a bit slow- compared to Luger, it’s a little embarrassing.’
The man carefully watched the battle between Leeha and the clowns.
He was similar to Luger, but he inferior to Luger in combat ability and all other aspects. However, one thing was different.
There was one thing that caught the man’s interest.
‘How did he summon the field boss? If he has the sa profession as Luger, then he must be a musketeer……. And with a reload like that, it’s no longer a musket. It feels more like a K2. There’s no other profession that could get that kind of weapon……
A summoner’s skill and a musketeer’s weapon. Either one was clearly not job-related.
‘Does he also have pistols?! That’s Kidd- right, that gun is job-related, he is definitely a musketeer. Then!’
It ant that summoning the field boss was a special skill!
The man realized that it was sothing attached to an item or achievent.
“Break it? Will you break it? Uhihihi!”
“Contact the ringmaster now!”
The battle was already over. The clowns of the Midnight Circus surrounded the shield.
After the shield’s duration was over, he would no longer have the opportunity to talk with the person who summoned the field boss, whether he ran away or died.
In the end, the man took actionfirst.
“Hey, clowns.”
“Hmm?” “Huh?”
“Get lost, I have sothing to ask him.”
And then he drew out a black sword. Not only the users around them, but also the clowns of Midnight Circus widened their eyes.
“Oh, ooh- oooh”
“T-t-t-that!”
“M-M-Magic Swordsman Lee Jiwon!”
Magic Swordsman Lee Jiwon, 2nd in the world ranking, appeared in Siand Frontier.
“Puhu, puhu, Lee Jiwon! Lee Jiwon!”
“So easy! It’s also easy to take care of you, easy!”
The clowns jumped. They widened the gap in an instant with back tumbling.
It was a move made by the three assassins under that judgent that it would be difficult for the Magic Swordsman even in a 3-on-1 battle.
“Get lost.”
“You too, will have to deal with Petyr-nim soday-”
“Sol Blaze, Corona Zet.”
Hwaaak, it seed that the light of the sun would appear from the black sword again, but it was different from before.
Rather than simply surrounding the surface of the sword, particles were released in the air in an instant from the tip of his sword. There was no way to avoid the skill that had no casting ti.
One clown from the Midnight Circus caught on fire.
“Kiki- Keeek！”
“Shadow-”
“Ice Spike.”
“Step- Kihaaaak!”
Lee Jiwon shot a magic bullet behind his back. The clown, who was about to step over his head and step on his shadow, was pierced by the ice spikes protruding from the ground.
“Lightning bolt.”
“Kahaaaak!”
The situation was over as the rest of the clowns, which could not react to what happened in an instant, were defeated. Users around them did not have a chance to be surprised.
It only took 20 seconds or so for Lee Jiwon to sort out the three assassins that Leeha had been struggling with.
“When I said get lost, I ant it……. Are you okay?”
Lee Jiwon approached Leeha, who was still inside the Force Barrier, he couldn’t keep his mouth closed as he watched Lee Jiwon’s swordsmanship.
The difference in skill was too huge. If the users around them didn’t call the man Lee Jiwon, Leeha would have believed that it was a fight between a moderator and so users.
“……Lee Jiwon……”
“Hmm, did this barrier co from an item? Can you move?”
“Yes? N-no, anyway, this is a skill.”
“Ah, you can’t release the skill? Don’t worry, I’ll help you.”
Lee Jiwon raised his black sword and aid at the barrier.
Then, like a hot knife through butter, it cut through the force barrier.
Advanced force barrier.
Leeha’s life preservation skill that did not budge to any attack or skill. In fact, it wasn’t an exaggeration to say that he got a second life because of this skill….
The attack that tore the force barrier wasn’t even a skill.
There were only a few people who would have been able to crack this force barrier….
‘It wasn’t even able to withstand it for a second, what-’
What should he say?
However, as if nothing bad had happened, Lee Jiwon put back his sword, and reached out to Leeha. In his hand was a bottle of water glimring in a soft light.
“Can you see it? Can I give you a potion?”
Perhaps he misunderstood that Leeha was blinded because of the attack. Leeha grabbed the potion and grabbed Lee Jiwon’s hand.
“Ah, that- yes. Thank you.”
[You have acquired a holy potion made of rare holy water.]
‘……Crazy……”
Why did soone who used such a rare potion to help him? How much did this even cost? Leeha didn’t know what to think, but right now Leeha Jiwon was his benefactor.
“Can I ask you sothing? But before that, let’s move to a different place.”
After helping Leeha up, Lee Jiwon looked around and frowned. There were a lot of people around them taking videos and photos. Of course, they would not be able to capture Lee Jiwons’s figure.
Still, he couldn’t help but be concerned.
“Yes, of course.”
And a party request popped up. Leeha saved the location of Siand Frontier and accepted the party request.
“Mass Teleport.”
If Lee Jiwon was going to do anything, even before Leeha could think of tearing up a teleport scroll, his body would have already been moved to another place.
“Ahh……. They left.”
After such a great commotion, there was a mont of silence, and the Siand Frontier beca noisy instantly.
“By the way, who was that bastard, did Lee Jiwon pretend to know him?”
“I think I’ve seen him a lot……:”
“Before, back in the day, what was it? Was it the rising Sun. Or the setting Sun Desperado?”
“AH! Right! When that war broke out in Fibiel, was it Matan’s Shooter?! Is it that person?”
“What? Why are they together? And why did the Midnight Circus pursue Matan’s Shooter?”
Whisper whisper, rumors spread around the frontier.
“We’re here…”
Seeing the light from afar, were they in a cave? There was little light coming in, but because of the light stonesaround them, the inside was brighter than Leeha thought.
“Hmm, it’s not quite right to call it my hideout, it’s just an evacuation site. Because I don’t like being around people.”
“I see.”
Leeha looked around the cave and took a map out of his bag. The place did not appear on the map he bought from Hell Anvil. They were sowhere in an unexplored area.
‘Right. He has a personality that annoyed people.’
His nickna was indicative of that.
After hearing the news that his gap with the number one in ranking had narrowed, nurous organizations wanted to interview him and they actually did.
How did you level so quickly? Was it difficult?
There’s a lot of talk about the control of magic for swordsn, but do you think the difficulty is high?.
What are your thoughts on Alexandor? Are you confident about winning against him?
To all the questions asked by all kinds of group, Lee Jiwon only had one thing to say.
‘Too easy!’
It was lazy and indiferrent, but the world went crazy for the short answer that exuded so much confidence.
So people called it charisma, and so called it arrogance, but at least the short answer had a strong impact.
Thanks to that answer, his relationship with the number one ranker, Alexander, beca even worse, so how fun it must have been for the onlookers?
‘I thought he was trying to create a concept on purpose to gain popularity or sothing, but I guess that wasn’t the case.’
After looking around and glancing at Lee Jiwon to grasp the atmosphere, Leeha beca curious again. What was the reason Lee Jiwon talked to him? What did he want to talk about?.
“There…… hmm……” About your skill earlier.”
“Skill?”
“The field boss you summoned.”
“Ah, that.”
Lee Jiwon scratched his head.
“Tell about it.”
“……What?”
What was this all of a sudden? Leeha was dumbfouded!
When Leeha made such an expression, Lee Jiwon talked again.
“I an the brown bear you summoned.” That. Please tell . How did you do it?
Your job is a musketeer isn’t it?.”
“No, well…… How did I do it……”
It usually wasn’t polite to ask questions like this.
Doesn’t acquiring skills in Middle Earth have to be done through collecting information through research, or by completing hidden quests?
In other words, it ant that all things related to certain skills are kept a secret. You have to discover it yourself.
“Aren’t you going to tell ?”
“You usually don’t tell these kinds of things to strangers, do you?”
“Didn’t I just save you?”
“I appreciate that, but I should have been able to escape on my own. Using a scroll would have been enough.”
“What?”
You’re lying Lee Jiwon, I could save myself! Leeha had an expression that seed to say that. Is he a little over 20 years old now?
Leeha could not hide his surprise as he looked at Lee Jiwon’s face, he had a young face that could be in his early 20’s or even in his late teens. How ridiculous was it to have a face like that?
‘It wasn’t that he is annoyed with people, can it be that his communication skills are very poor in the first place?’
Maybe the reason why Ram Hwajeong didn’t speak much was that she was shy.
But Lee Jiwon talked quite a bit, but it seed he just didn’t take into consideration other people’s feelings at all
In any case, it could be said that Middle Earth geniuses might be people who all have at least one screw missing.
“Cough, then- Uhhhm……”
“Well, I guess I can tell you about it because we’re both Korean.”
“Oh? You’re Korean?”
“Yes. I am Ha Leeha.”
“Ha Leeha! Your nickna is unique.”
Leeha thought Lee Jiwon might know about the Rising Sun or Hwahong vs. Byeolcho, but his reaction told him otherwisel.
‘He’s crazy about hunting, so he doesn’t have any interest in others.’
The reason Leeha said that was because he wanted to suggest so kind of trade. Although Leeha currently only had the Soul Link skill in Middle Earth, there were limitations in using and obtaining it anyway.
So, what other ways could he use the skill?
“It’s my real na…… Anyway. I’ll tell you about the skill, so can I ask you a few questions?”
“Yea sure sure, anything.”
“Do you know where Fernand is?”
In any case, he was second in the ranking, wouldn’t that an that he had been to hunting grounds that no human have ever touched before?
And because of that, Leeha thought that Lee Jiwon knew sothing that even the Intelligence Guildsdidn’t know.
“Fernand..… You an that Indiana Jones guy? I saw him around four or five days ago…”
“Where was he?”
The first question was a very big deal.
