Chapter 13

“Fountain, Fountain, Fountain Plaza.” Musket’s strap on his shoulders danced.

Leeha can’t remember a single time he was flustered while carrying a gun.

Every time he took a step, gunstock tapped the back of Leeha’s knees.

Leeha walked with a sense of rhythm and looked around.

“Recruiting party members for wolf hunt! Level 9! We have a tank and a healer! We only need one dealer left then we can go!”

“Looking for party members for Golden Eagle Nest Quest, let’s go together~ Tankers, especially welcome.”

“Who’s looking for a wizard. I’m a level 5 wizard looking for a party. I’m looking for a party that can play until level 10~ I plan to play all day!”

The noise became louder as he approached the central square.

The shouts of users searching a party and bargain to exchange items from the hunting ground. All of this was enjoyable to Leeha.

‘Kijeong said that this isn’t the only beginner village, yet there are still so many people. That’s good.’

This means that it still isn’t too late to start and grow. It is a fact that the worse the game is, the fewer the new users are.

“Huh huh huh!”

“Huup.”

A middle-aged man suddenly appeared next to the fountain while screaming. Raising his arms and covering his head as if to protect himself from falling.

‘Did I do that too?’

Leeha still remember the feeling of “falling” into Middle Earth. Leeha felt proud when he saw the middle-aged man looking around with round eyes.

And finally, the restaurant the Guard Captain told him caught his eyes.

‘It’s here.’

A shopping street that always runs along the intersection of the central square. With the overlapping knife and fork that seems to be common all over the world.

“Hello.”

“Ommomo! Welcome, to the ‘Holy Grill’. Are you alone?”

By Middle Earth’s standard, it was already the end of the day, and there were quite a few people in the restaurant that were either users or NPCs.

Eating in the game? It’s fun too. Also, didn’t Kijeong talk about energy or hunger?

“No, I didn’t come to eat.”

“Ah, then what are you doing here?”

“I came to sell rabbit meat.”

“Oh my goodness! That’s great, I’m still in need of rabbit meat. The most famous thing on our grill is the rabbit sauce. Customers always look for it. Ohonghong, good. Come this way.”

Following Madam, Leeha passed through the hall and entered the kitchen.

‘There are a lot of people.’

On the way, orders were pouring in asking for beer or adding two servings of meat.

“Are there many strangers eating here?”

“Of course! Some eat here, and some order take outs. You need to eat in order to have strength. It’s also helpful for recovery, and it’s a great help.”

“I see.”

Should I eat here too? Fortunately, there are no signs of hunger right now.

“Chef! There is someone who came to sell meat, can you look at the meat quality?”

“Yes, Madame.”

A thick voice with each step, it’s like the kitchen is trembling.

Kueung, kueung, and a person approached. No, it is not a person.

No matter how tall they are, wouldn’t it be scary to call someone who appears to be around 2m50m a person?

Even more so when the knife they are holding appears to be heavier than Leeha.

“Oh, oh……

“Oheungheung, is it the first time you see a Giant?”

I saw it when I first chose a race, but was it this big?

Right, I saw in the description. 2.5m. But seeing the description and seeing the real thing is a completely different story.

“Take out the meat.”

“Oh, oh, yes. Here.”

Leeha became humble without even noticing. He opened his bag within 30 seconds, it would be amazing if he could reload the musket that fast.

“Hmm. The meat brought by stranger’s spoil quickly. The bone on the side of the eyebrow bulged out.” The giant inspected the rabbit meat.

“I-is that so? I tried to shoot only the head……

“Hmm…… This is good. I couldn’t use the meat brought by the other strangers. Madam, this is very good.” The giant looked satisfied. And Leeha, who imagined what expression he would have had if he was not satisfied, trembled for a moment.

“Kiyomi, how much do you think I should pay him?”

“They are all about the same size. 7 copper per head will be nice.”

“Omomo, isn’t that a lot?”

I wanted to say, ‘It’s too cheap!’, but because of the name of the giant Madam said, I stopped myself.

What, what? Kiyomi?

‘Hmm, Cute? If the height is about 3m, then if the body is proportional then. I don’t think it’s cute size.’

Keuheum, Keuheum. Leeha coughed and cleared his throat.. That must be huge.

“We can’t do it if Kiyomi says that. I’ll give you 7 coppers each. There are six, so a total of 42 copper.”

“Please call me Kiyo-Mifgar, Madam.”

“I like Kiyomi better? Ohonghong, come here, stranger.”

The Giant roared in a small voice, then went back to grooming the meat.

Madam went back to the counter with Leeha. As she handed the coin, her eyes shone.

“By the way, if you are bringing such high-quality meat… … Could you help us with this?”

“Work? What?”

“It’s a job to get meat for the restaurant, what do you think?”

[Support for the development of a new menu for the Holy Grill-1]

Description: Madam Lou fell in love with the rabbit meat you brought. ‘Wouldn’t this person be able to get black-haired rabbit meat?’ She needs you for her ambition to create the best Middle Earth meat restaurant!

Content: Non-perishable rabbit meat (0 / 5), black-haired rabbit meat (0 / 1)

Reward: 1 Madame Lou special lunch box using a new recipe.

-Do you accept it?

‘Hmm? What is the reward.’

Leeha also love meat, but should he accept a quest to gather meat in order to eat meat in game? However, Leeha focused on something else that was written in the window and the smiling eyes of Madame Lou.

Cooperation-1.

‘Linked quest?’

There might be a linked quest after finishing this one, I would need to hunt rabbits to level up anyway, so it won’t hurt to try.

“What is unbroken rabbit meat?”

“It just needs to be of the same quality as what you’ve got now.”

Five. It’s not difficult. I just need to kill the rabbits instantly by shooting them in the head. Gunpowder and ammunition can be obtained at any time.

“So what about black-haired rabbit meat?”

“I don’t know if you can get it. It is said that among the ferocious rabbits, there is one with poisonous black fur. The taste of its meat is popular in the capital, but you should try it to know. It’s stronger and bigger than normal rabbits, and it is hard to find.”

Madame Lou sighed and exhaled.

Leeha’s eyebrows twitched at what he heard. He learned of it’s information in the community.

‘Isn’t it like a boss? No, they said that the boss monster of Candle Castle is like a bird. What is the rabbit?’

Monsters that appear only when special conditions are met.

It refers to a monster that does not appear in the place where normal monsters appear, but appears only depending on the situation. According to community information, it was very difficult to find.

“Do you know where I could find it? I want to get it, but I can’t catch it unless I know where it comes out.”

“Omomo? Of course I know! I know how to lure it out. However, I can’t give any information to strangers who might spoil the meat. Oheungheung.” Madame Lou’s eyes looked like a half moon..

“How can I get the meat if I don’t know how to find it?”

“I can’t believe there’s a stranger who is stupid enough to have to ask about that~.”

“I am just making sure. Okay, I will do it. I will get a good quality meat and I’m getting it right away.”

Leeha pressed the yes button. Madame Lou’s facial expression changed, and she handed a small pouch of leather to Leeha.

“If you go straight through the south gate, you will see a forest. If you hang this pouch on a tree, you’ll find the guy who its smell. Don’t miss the chance. Oh, it only comes out on the moonlit night. Oheungheung.”

Pouch? He accepted a pouch that smelled strangely nasty.

“Okay.”

“Okay, you know what happens if you try to cheat with weird meat, right? Our chef hates people who play around with food.”

“I’m sure he does. Probably.”

It’s terrible to imagine that a knife thrown at you.

“Then, I’ll wait for you to get back as soon as possible. Is. that. Clear.”

Leeha smiled awkwardly and came out of the holy grill.

50 copper, which was the first reward, and 42 copper, obtained by selling rabbit meat. It was a smooth start.

That was what Leeha thought before entering the general store.

“No way! Why is it so expensive!!!”

“If you don’t like it, don’t buy it. We don’t have a lot of stocks.”

A half bald old man with one eyed glasses sat down on the sofa, with a dismissive attitude towards Leeha.

Leeha didn’t see any customers in the first place.

“Uncle- No, teacher, boss! If black powder and iron ball ammunition are so expensive, how are the musketeers in this land living?”

“Uhm, uhm. That’s why there aren’t many musket tiers in this land.”

“This-”

That makes sense.

“No matter how much you want to profit, you should still be humane.”

“Oh, “humane”?”

“Kkeuk”

How can an NPC say something like this?

“I’m the one who caught the ferocious rabbit at the request of the police chief. To be more helpful to Candle Castle! May I ask for a discount?”

“How many times do you think I’ve heard it so far?”

“Haa……

Leeha’s head fell completely.

What kind of game have such a high level Artificial Intelligence? Without taking a step back, he refutes Leeha’s statement, with valid arguments.

Now Leeha is getting pushed around by an NPC.

10 copper for 1 bag of black powder, 3 copper for 1 iron ball bullet.

Leeha burnt his 92 copper by buying 7 bags of gunpowder and seven bullets. Then exactly 1 copper remains.

‘What about quality rabbit meat? You can’t buy a bag of gunpowder, right?’

He can sell a rabbit for 7 coppers each, so he couldn’t buy a gunpowder with a single rabbit, and if he bought 2 iron ball bullets, there’s only 1 copper left. Should this be accepted as a Musketeer’s fate?

Or are users who shoot bows similar?

‘Because the attack is fast, they will use more. Musketeer would be better. Please! Let’s think about it like this.’ That was his only comfort, when gunpowder and bullets used to check the musket’s performance pass like a dream.

The owner of the general store opened his mouth again.

“It is not ordinary gunpowder.. As you may have noticed when you were using the musket, the technique of processing the gunpowder like granules is only used in our Kingdom of Fibiel and the Kingdom of Minis. If it were in another country, it would still be using powdery powder. If you handle it incorrectly, it will explode, or if it gets wet, you can’t shoot it properly. You don’t want your musket to explode, right?”

Leeha at least knew the names and locations of countries revealed in Middle Earth, so he could understand what he was being told.

Candle Castle belongs to Fibiel, a powerhouse in the center of the continent. And Minis, who developed national power based on the wide grassland.

“Of course I don’t, but do you even sell the powder form?”

“Tsktsk, we don’t sell it here. Who will sell something so dangerous? Maybe ignorant guys from Kraven sell them in the store.”

Kraven, a maritime powerhouse, is fighting with Fibiel and is in alliance with Minis.

Leeha could tell without having to rummage through his bag.

The remaining 14 bags of black powder, 14 iron ball bullets. Rabbit meat is only 7 coppers per piece, and it is not always available, so it cannot be maintained if he only hunt rabbits.
