Chapter: 12
-Oh.
-Let's go quickly.
-Sweet.
-Stream until the slime appears.
The viewers who weren't related to the Artsvel quest reacted enthusiastically.
Hanbit turned his gaze to Yeonwoo.
“Let's go. Just ignore unnecessary messages.”
“Ah, yes. But aren't you going to continue the main story? You know I left it to do with that guy, right?”
“That's for later. We're going to get the skill first.”
“Ah, wait a minute! Let's go together!”
As soon as he started walking, Yeonwoo hurriedly followed behind.
‘…A lot have followed.’
Hanbit, walking through the city, noticed players following him from afar.
There were quite a few people who had been in the party.
‘It's been a while since I've been here as well.’
Heading towards the entrance, Hanbit stood in front of a large house made of wood.
“Is the archery NPC the same?”
“The rest are the same too. In the end, it's all proven by skill.”
Creak-
Hanbit opened the door and went inside.
The spacious interior was divided into two parts.
One side was full of monster materials.
The other was a living space.
“What, are you a customer?”
[Hunter Rikner]
The muscular, rugged teacher looked exactly the same as he remembered.
Standing in front of him, Hanbit said confidently,
“I came to learn some archery.”
“Is that so? Do you have the guts?”
-Guts-obsessed guy has appeared.
-Intestinal worm.
-Say "I don't have any" and then he kicks you out.
-I really shot a lot of arrows.
Viewers poured out their own experiences.
“I have the guts. But skill is more important, right?”
“You speak well.”
The hunter chuckled as if amused.
“The test is simple.”
Ding-!
[Quest]
You must pass the test to learn archery.
Try to achieve the conditions set by Hunter Rikner.
Goal: Obtain a score above the standard.
Reward: 500 gold, Basic Archery Training Manual (1st Rank-?), 1 Stat Point, 100 Experience Points
A message popped up along with the hunter's words.
Hanbit immediately accepted and listened to the following explanation.
“Shoot the target in the backyard and get a score. You have 30 chances. A perfect score by my standards is 200 points.”
“So 10 points per chance, right?”
“Exactly. Choose a bow you like from over there and follow me.”
Pointing his finger at the wall, he disappeared into the backyard.
Where Hanbit turned his head, all sorts of similar-looking bows were hanging in two rows.
-Fourth from the top left, go for it.
-Sixth from the bottom right.
-Information) These guys are picking out crappy bows for him.
-They have no sense…
-You can't get over 100 points even with the best one. lol
-Real talk, the difficulty is unnecessarily high.
“You can't get over 100 points? I can get over that even with a cheap one.”
-?
-That statement.
-Are you picking a fight with the archers?
-He started it first, right?
Some viewers' eyes widened at the provocation.
Ding-!
[The National Archers Association has registered a 100,000 won challenge mission.]
[If you get over 100 points with the second bow from the bottom left, you win.]
-The National Archers Association is so evil. lol
-Look at the state of that bow. lol
-Even the advance party would shake their heads.
-Just a cheapskate.
“Oh, how did you know I wanted a challenge mission? Thank you for the first challenge mission!”
A challenge mission, one of the streaming system's features.
It seems Yeonwoo added something.
[Hwarang has donated 10,000 won for the challenge mission.]
[Ah lol do it.]
[JooMong has donated 20,000 won for the challenge mission.]
[If you fail, how about getting the reward and going to karaoke?]
“Oh, thank you all!”
The amount of money gradually accumulated in the registered challenge mission.
When the flow subsided, the monetary unit had changed.
[Challenge Mission]
[If you get over 100 points with the second bow from the bottom left, you win.]
[Prize Money: 335,000 won]
“Wow, it's over 300,000 won!”
-Whoa
-Spending 300,000 on archery?
-The National Archers Association is profitable.
-So how do you get over 100 points? lol
‘Are they all rich?’
Hanbit let out a hollow laugh as he looked at the amount.
Of course, most of the viewers seemed convinced that he would fail the mission.
“Thank you. I can use this, right?”
Hanbit picked up the second bow from the bottom left.
It was cracked in places, and the bowstring was frayed as if someone had gnawed on it.
-Are you really going to do it?
-If you screw up your score, do they give you a normal one?
-Those National Archers Association bastards
-The Black Dragon has been screwed.
The chat window was already shifting to a mood of mourning.
Hanbit examined the bow and immediately made a decision.
‘It's not so bad that I can't shoot it.’
Objectively, it was true that the bow was in poor condition.
But Hanbit had used worse bows.
On countless battlefields, he had to tie up even a broken bow and use it somehow.
“Let's go.”
Taking the bow and quiver, Hanbit moved to the backyard.
Yeonwoo followed behind and asked casually.
“Hyung, can you really do it? 100 points is tough even with a good bow.”
“I have to do it no matter what. Look how much that is.”
Hanbit was serious.
Not only was this an unfamiliar environment in a game, but there were also limitations to the effects of the title unless he learned the skill.
To compare it to this situation, he had to go back to his very first memory.
Back then, he couldn't even pull the bowstring properly.
“It's really far even when I see it again.”
A long path that seemed to be 50 meters.
At the end of it stood a familiar target.
“Are you ready?”
“Of course.”
The hunter, with his arms crossed, took on a teacher’s air.
Hanbit took his stance and immediately nocked an arrow.
“Oh? Aren't you going to add points to Agility? You have stat points left.”
“I won't use them now.”
Zwooosh-
Answering appropriately, Hanbit slowly pulled the nocked arrow.
He was experiencing this feeling after a long time.
The heavy tension was too well implemented.
He could even feel the deficient state of the bow completely.
Ping-!
As he let go, the arrow flew quickly.
It grazed the corner of the target and stuck in the dirt.
[0 points]
“Hyung?”
-?
-Huh?
-0 points. LOL
-1 win for the National Archers Association.
The score appeared small in the air.
The viewers were flustered by the absurd result.
“Focus! Your posture is good, but your aim is off!”
The hunter also chimed in with a loud voice.
Ping-!
[0 points]
The arrow he shot once again missed the target.
“Don't give up! Show your guts!”
-Pathetic
-He was a one-trick pony with magic. lol
-He's pitiful, let's stop watching.
The mocking chat window was outside Hanbit's view.
He just focused on the necessary senses.
Ping-!
Once again, the arrow flew quickly.
It struck a spot off-center.
[7 points]
-Oh?
-Oh?
-Yeah, it's a fluke.
“Yes, that's the spirit! Pull it up more!”
The viewers didn't notice the subtle change in Hanbit's movements.
Concentrating intensely, Hanbit shot the arrow once more.
Ping-!
A little sharper and more precise than before.
Hanbit was convinced.
And.
Thwack-!
The arrow finally hit the exact spot.
[10 points]
* * *
Thwack-!
[10 points]
“Perfect!”
Thwack-!
[10 points]
“Excellent!”
The following 26 attempts all hit the very center of the target.
[Total Score: 277 points]
-Huh?
-What am I seeing?
-Wait, wasn't the mission 100 points?
-Even the hunter said 200 points was a perfect score
-OK, looks like he found a bug.
-He just broke through the ceiling
-I give up thinking at this point.
“Veeeery good!”
The hunter patted Hanbit's shoulder with a booming voice.
His expression contained a happiness that was hard to put into words.
He handed Hanbit a light green book.
Ding-!
[Quest completed.]
[Depending on the exceeding score, the reward will be adjusted to the maximum amount.]
[500 gold ⟶ Increased to 3,000 gold.]
[Basic Archery Training Manual (1st Rank-Unique).]
[Stat points increased from 1 ⟶ 5.]
[Experience points increased from 100 ⟶ 700.]
[Level increased by 2.]
[2 stat points awarded.]
[Standard bow and arrows awarded.]
-No, holy sh*t
-Unique again?
-Is it really 1st rank?
-It's coming… the mental breakdown… is coming.
-What gear is Black Dragon using? Is he level 4?
“Ah, Brother Black Dragon is currently using level 2 gear!”
-Level 2?
-But he's doing that?
-Don't f*cking joke with me.
-Let's just kill Roper.
The viewers' chat, unable to accept it, gradually heated up.
But Yeonwoo just smiled.
“I don't know why you're doing this to me… but! Challenge mission successful!”
[You have succeeded in the challenge mission.]
[You have received 419,000 won in prize money.]
[The National Archers Association has donated 10,000 won.]
[I entrust the future of the National Archers Association to you.]
-Congrats congrats congrats
-It piled up even more while he was shooting
-The era of the great archer
“Thank you all!”
“Thank you!”
Hanbit conveyed his sincere gratitude to the viewers.
Just how much was this?
“Ah, hyung. The prize money is yours, so I'll give it all to you.”
“What? No, we’ll split it in half.”
“No way, that's the national rule for prize money.”
-I agree.
-I acknowledge and give you a thumbs up.
-Roper knows what's up.
The viewers also agreed with Yeonwoo's opinion.
Hanbit could only scratch his head, a little embarrassed.
“Black Dragon!”
Suddenly, the hunter's voice suddenly boomed.
His eyes were sparkling intensely.
“Ah, I won't work under you.”
“What…!”
A rejection spat out before he could even finish his sentence.
The hunter's eyes widened in shock, his jaw dropping.
This man's eyes would go wild whenever he saw someone with talent in archery.
A quick refusal was always the answer.
“See you later then.”
“Wait… Black Dragon! If you work with me, meat is free! Leather too…”
The hunter's pitiful voice gradually faded away.
When he disappeared from sight, Hanbit turned over the cover of the book in his hand.
[Would you like to use it? (Yes/No)]
Poof-!
As he pressed the button, the book disappeared with a puff of smoke.
'Basic Archery' was registered in the skill list.
“See? It's not much different, right?”
“What do you mean see… The results are completely different.”
-The reality check is harsh.
-Why the reality check? Just think of it as a different game.
-Real talk lol, it's just a different world.
-At this point, I'm just curious about what's next.
-Fast progress, go go
The stirred-up public sentiment led to urging.
“Then let's go right away.”
Hanbit also had no intention of delaying.
He started walking towards the opposite outskirts of the city.
“Now you're going to learn swordsmanship, right?”
“No? There's Swiftness.”
“You're going to learn that? It's not really useful.”
-Really the most useless, tier 1.
-The ultimate 'move a little faster'.
-There's no skill tree either.
-I'd rather just get a mount later.
As expected, the reviews for the Swiftness skill were harsh.
Even if you build up proficiency, the effect is minimal, and there's no follow-up skill.
While that perception wasn't entirely wrong, the necessity of this skill lay elsewhere entirely.
“It's absolutely necessary before learning swordsmanship.”
“Swordsmanship?”
“You'll see when we get there. Let's go.”
“Well, if you say so… It sounds interesting?”
Yeonwoo, who knew the quest content, quickly changed his attitude.
And for good reason, because what was needed this time was tag.
“But it's impossible to achieve the conditions for this. It's tag, but you can't catch him.”
Yeonwoo emphasized that the difficulty was absurd.
Knowing this better than anyone, Hanbit just smiled and moved on.
