Chapter 41 - Krystal.



He would like to grind XP, but he would be lucky enough to survive if he went to the Beast Forest. Players have already assembled their party\'s.

It is not a place for solo players to go anymore. All the weaker Beasts have been killed, and only Beasts with much higher levels than Isaac remained.

There is a timespan when the weaker Beasts respawns, but it is two days later, and even then, he probably won\'t even get a single kill.

While he was daydreaming, he didn\'t notice that he had walked towards one of the largest buildings in Stronglord.

Isaac walked towards the gates of the large building, and in the yard of the building, hundreds of men was practicing with swords.

In front of the gates, a stoic-looking man was standing with a clipboard.

A nametag floated above him.

[Krystal - Army Instructor]

[Level: 91]

He had small brown hair with a muscular build and well-defined facial features. He had a sharp nose and cheekbones, but there was one thing very unique about him. He was missing his left ear!

He watched as the soldiers trained, but then he felt a presence approaching the gates.

He turned his body around and saw a beautiful individual with chain armor walking towards him, obviously not paying any attention to where he was walking.

Krystal was about to turn the beautiful individual around, but then he saw pouches hanging from his waist.

\'He is... Smart one.\' Krystal now looked inquired about this individual. He knows that the so-called Players have a special ability that lets them take items from the air, but he always thought that it was inefficient in the battle— it is better to have your ammo visible so you can know how many bullets you have left.

But, he also feels like it is slower than taking items from the pouch or from the pocket.

\'\'Hey, young man!\'\' Krystal said with his stoic voice.

Isaac flinched and looked around him, \'When did I get here?\'

\'\'Young man, are you interested in becoming a soldier?\'\' Krystal said with crossed arms.

Isaac finally noticed the burly man, but then he widened his eyes in shock.

\'\'Y-You know I am a boy?!\'\'

\'\'Of course, your face can\'t hide your manly traits. Some people with weaker will might be distracted by your face, but you are clearly a man!\'\' Krystal said with a confident expression.

Isaac looked thrilled— he almost felt like crying.

\'\'Well, young man. Are you interested?\'\'

\'\'Interested in what?\'\' Isaac asked— he didn\'t hear Krystal\'s previous words.

\'\'Becoming a soldier,\'\' Krystal repeated calmly.

\'\'Soldier... Why me?\'\' Isaac asked curiously.

Krystal pointed at the pouches, \'\'You have obviously good wits, and that is desperately needed in the military.\'\'

Isaac looked at the pouches on his waist, and he thought it would be obvious to put them there to reload quickly and to see how many bullets he has left.

After all, he doesn\'t have a limited amount of bullets, and he needs to know if he needs to carefully use his bullets, so they won\'t end.

\'\'So, what do you think? Soldiers earn good money. Recruits earn 3000 White Coins every month!\'\'

Isaac sighed and scratched his cheek. He doesn\'t really want to become a soldier. He wants to be more of an adventurer.

\'\'I am sorry. I have to decline.\'\' Isaac bowed and said with sadness. He feels like Krystal is a good man— refusing him made him feel bitter.

Krystal didn\'t look offended— instead, he gently smiled, \'\'Excellent lad. Well, you don\'t have to join. But, do you want to join the training?\'\'

\'\'Training?\'\' Isaac looked towards the hundreds of recruits training with swords.

\'\'You must be using a gun, correct?\'\'

Isaac nodded.

\'\'We have firing range here. Do you want to see it?\'\' Krystal asked and pointed at the large building in the distance.

Isaac nodded and started following behind Krystal.

They went past the training yard.

The soldiers stopped training and saluted towards Krystal, who returned the salute with his own.

Isaac\'s figure garnered quite a lot of attention, but soon the soldiers received angry shouts from other Instructors.

Krystal and Isaac entered the building.

They didn\'t stay in the building— instead, there was another exit in the building, which took them into a large yard with dozens of targets 50 meters away from them.

\'\'What is your choice of weapon?\'\' Krystal asked.

Isaac took his Flintlock from the Inventory and gave it to Krystal.

Krystal looked at the Flintlock and nodded, \'\'Good gun.\'\' He said and gave it back to Isaac.

Isaac took it and looked at the targets in the distance.

He has never tried shooting a target from fifty meters.

\'\'Do you want to try?\'\' Krystal asked.

Isaac nodded— he took a few steps forwards and stopped in front of a red line.

\'\'Phew...\'\' Isaac took a deep breath— he pointed the Flintlock on the target and closed his left eye.

Krystal looked at his stance and at his breathing.

Isaac\'s finger started closing on the trigger— he did a few minor last moment changes and pressed the trigger.

*Bang*

Krystal and Isaac watched as the bullet flew in the air towards the target.

The barrel of the Flintlock smoked, which hindered Isaac\'s vision slightly, but soon the smoke cleared, and Isaac saw how did it go.

\'\'Ahh...\'\' Isaac scratched his head.

The bullet missed the target!

It was 1 cm away from hitting the target, but he was far away from hitting the bullseye.

With embarrassment, he looked towards Krystal. He thought that he was pretty good, but he seemed to be wrong.

\'\'How long have you been using Flintlock?\'\' Krystal asked.

\'\'Uhh... Few days.\'\'

Krystal\'s eyes almost popped from their sockets, \'\'F-Few days?!\'\'

Isaac scratched his cheek and nodded.

\'Am I that bad?\'

He thought that Krystal was shocked because he has been using few days and still couldn\'t hit a target.

\'He is genius!\' Krystal cried in his mind.

*Cough* *Cough*

Krystal coughed a few times and nodded, \'\'I saw a few mistakes in your stance and in breathing— if you fix them, then your accuracy should increase.\'\'

Isaac nodded, but he didn\'t know how to change his stance or breathing.

\'\'Do you want me to train you for today?\'\' Krystal asked.

Isaac\'s eyes sparkled, and then messages popped up in front of him.
