Arcane Sniper [Matan’s Shooter]

He maintained the logical belief that the place he had now reached was the land where Luger died.

The moment Leeha logged out, he was willing to step in without any hesitation.

Even the sky was barren in the blooming barren land.

In the desolate sky, a crow with four wings was flying in a large circle. Kid sat down against the rock in a relaxed manner and rummaged through his bag.

“I have been waiting for this day. How would you like me to deal with you, 《Magic Bullet Marksman》?”

The crow was looking at Kid, who was slightly nervous and slightly excited.

* * *

“Oh dear.”

“Oh my god, it really hasn’t even been a day…”

“Jo, be careful, Sea God! “All guards are ready!”

Sea God Elaim, Drake, and Sea God Guard Captain Sibreem raised their voices at the same time. Of course, they weren’t the only ones.

Although they couldn’t get closer, it was natural that something huge and golden shining outside the gate of the Dragon Palace would attract the mermaids’ attention.

“Um, what does that say?!”

“Ha- Leeha, I think he brought it here- but it’s not a Kraken or a Serpent…” “

There are a lot of things around. Could it be that the fishmen have come to attack again?”

“That’s not true! Hi Ha came with us, so that can’t be possible….”

If Ha Ha wasn’t by her side, the mermaids would have already finished preparing for battle.

In fact, Shivrim and the Sea God’s Guard were guarding the Sea God’s side with very tense expressions.

And it wasn’t just mermaids preparing for battle.

“Mu Hong Hong, Mu Hong! sea water! “This is the sea!”

“Kafkaf! Guardian God, be careful!”

“Carf! “These guys look different from us, Karp!”

The mermaids are facing each other.

So, the giant golden carp, which was no larger than a strand of whiskers, and the paleo carp waving its tail fin around the golden carp were equally nervous.

“…So earlier… I told you for the entire six hours not to get confused, right?”

Lee Ha sighed.

I took a long time to explain that this might happen, but does the clash of civilizations, which even the NPCs don’t know about, lead to chaos?

“That… ha, more than that… ha, my mana… ha.”

“Oh, by the way! portion! portion!”

“That’s it – Huuu, humans… Sigh, it will be turned into a potion…”

Behind Leeha shaking his head, Blaugrun, who maintained his humanoid form, was fully stretched out in the water.

How did Shore and Carp Paleo leave the lakes of the New World and get here? It was no exaggeration to say that it was purely Blaugrun’s power.

Paleos can move on land when in humanoid form, but it takes too long to do so. Furthermore, Shore, a spirit creature, is a creature that can only live in water. Therefore, they had to be moved at once.

Of course, the only way was teleportation.

“It’s okay…is it okay?”

“I can’t believe it because it’s my first time connecting with the mana of a spiritual object. Moreover, there are 32 Paleo people. “If it had been a human wizard, the teleportation would have failed and everyone would have died.”

The amount of mana was so enormous that I had to ‘recharge mana’ in the lake for 6 hours.

In that charging state, he managed to teleport by pouring all his mana into the Dragon Heart until it was empty.

Even though it was Juvenile level, which was close to adult level, it was not going to be this easy to succeed.

As Blaugrun said, it was possible to teleport by linking the mana of the spiritual creature Shore and the mana of the Paleos, and this was possible because all coordinates of the space were accurately known.

“It was possible because of me. Phew.”

This time, Lee Ha had no choice but to acknowledge Blaugrun’s boastfulness.

This teleportation would have been impossible even for Bailippus if there had been no mana or spatial coordinate information of the target that could be linked.

Lee Ha couldn’t help but smile happily as he looked at Blaugrun, who was still speaking boldly.

“That’s amazing, Mr. Blaugrun.”

“It wasn’t a big deal, but I felt a little sleepy…”

Blaugrun lay down in the water as if doing a backstroke and fell asleep.

Leeha used Gelapong to catch Blaugrun, which was floating away in the ocean current, and shouted to the sea god.

“Sea God! What now!? These are the spirit creature ‘Shore’ and his Paleo people who live in the lake of the New World! Although he can usually be in human form! “Like now, it can exist as a composite form of a human and a fish, just like Drake!”

It’s different from a mermaid.

It is also different from the fish-man.

Rather, it is the form most similar to a drake, which has both the lower body of a human and the tail of a fish.

Of course, because the shape of the scales and the shape of the tail fin were ‘carp’, it was a little less agile and fashionable than the Drake, but in any case, the following analogy was not wrong.

“father.”

“Sun, Sea God. You approached me first like that and then—”

“Howard. Shivrim. “You still don’t know.”

Hearing the shout below, the sea god slowly moved his body.

“These are the people Leeha brought. Even being cautious like this is not befitting etiquette. “Let your guard down immediately and greet them with courtesy.”

“All right. All of the Royal Guard──── Attention!”

His large body, which moved smoothly as if riding an escalator, contained a power that overwhelmed those around him.

With one light word, both Sibreem and the Royal Guard lined up in an instant.

“To the distinguished guests who visited the Dragon Palace———Salute!”

The salute of the Sea God Guard was full of brute force.

Countless celebratory bells poured out from their weapons as they held out their weapons in unison.

The sea god approached the spirit creature Shore with colorful bells.

It was a sea god, the largest of all mermaids, but could it barely fit Shore’s head?

It was a size that could not be dared to compare to the enormous body of the spirit beast.

“I am Elaim, the Spirit King of Water. He is the longest-lived of the water spirits, but today he realizes that he still has a long way to go. Greetings, you who live in the widest world, with the greatest potential, with the blessing of water.”

“Mu Hong, Mu Hong. I am the spirit creature of the lake where there is no light, Shore! Your voice is familiar to my ears. Perhaps when it becomes a spirit creature. I think it definitely rang in my head at that time. Muhong!”

“It’s nice to hear that. Nice to meet you, Shore.”

The sea god held out his hand. What held the sea god’s thick and tough hand were two huge carp whiskers.

The moment the Sea God and Shore shook hands—Leeha thought for a long time about whether to call it a handshake—a fanfare sounded in Leeha’s head.

Bbabam-! The quest

[New Possibilities of the Water Spirit]

has been completed.

Obtained the key to the spirit world.

‘Achievements…?! Also, an item?’

I thought all I had to do was obtain the essence of the world, but unexpected things arose during the quest.

Lee Ha looked at the swirling bubbles before his eyes.

It seemed as if a small whirlpool had formed in front of Leeha’s face, and when the currents dissolved and disappeared, what he could see was a translucent key.

However, no living being except Lee Ha was looking in this direction. Lee Ha quickly took the keys and put them in his bag.

“Howard.”

“Yes, father.”

“Take Leeha to the septic tank. “Please give me the essence of the world.”

“All right.”

“Uh, yes. essence. That’s right, Jeongsu.”

Lee Ha hurriedly followed Drake.

From behind, the sea god and Shore’s boisterous laughter could be heard, along with the simultaneous shouts of mermaids and carp Paleos.

“Come on, let’s have a festival! Even without the energy of the septic tank, our water spirits will discover another path forward! Open the warehouse to your heart’s content, just for today!”

Wow──────────!

Below, I tried to find out what was meant by ‘affinity with spirits’, which was created as a reward for achievements rather than items, but the shouting was so loud that I couldn’t concentrate.

“Thank you.”

“you’re welcome.”

Above all, there was no room to think about anything else while responding to Drake’s sincere thank you.

Unlike last time, it was a while before the entrance to the septic tank came into view, with stronger security and a narrower entrance.

* * *

Shaaaaa───────…!

Red light emanated from the septic tank, which was beating like a heart.

The light slowly flowed into one place. A moment later, what was in Drake’s hand was a fist-sized bead.

“This is…”

The essence of the world has been acquired.

“okay. “With the current extraction, we will not be able to get new comrades for about half a year.”

“S-sorry.”

“No, it’s not like that. As my father said, it could actually be a foundation for greater development. Hi, thanks to the people you brought in.”

It took a while for us to say goodbye awkwardly, saying to each other, “It’s nothing, no, but thank you.”

Leeha immediately took out a crystal ball.

I wanted to quickly go to Bahamut with Blaugrun, who was carrying me around like a piggyback using the Gelapong, but a thought suddenly occurred to me.

“Hey…”

“Hmm? Is there anything else you need?”

“no. That’s not it. “I was wondering if you know what the key to the spirit world is…”

“The key to the spirit world?!”

“Is this strange?”

Drake’s eyes widened.

Lee Ha was even more embarrassed by his behavior, saying he heard something he couldn’t hear.

“That’s strange. No, it’s strange. Why does that name come up now? The key to the spirit world…”

Drake tilted his head.

It was truly unfamiliar to see Drake, the Iron Blood captain who was not embarrassed in any situation and the commander-in-chief called the ‘second storm’ of the Kingdom of Kraven, embarrassed.

“Literally. It is the key that opens the door to the spirit world. “Didn’t you say that this purification tank turns pure water spirits into our mermaids?”

“Yes, that’s right.”

“Then where are the low-purity water spirits?”

“…yes?”

“The world in which they exist is the spirit world.”

“ah…!”

It felt vague and vague, but I got the general idea below.

A world where spirits literally exist.

Doesn’t this mean that we can go to a place where spirits can exist as spirits, rather than as spirits embodied here in reality?!

“The key to the spirit world. Maybe from our treasure trove – no, my father gave me some gelapong himself, so I guess not. We only have one. My father is the only one who can freely travel between the spirit world and the present world. “If something happens to my father, there is only one mermaid who can go to the spirit world.”
