After Leeha took a break in reality and logged back in, a day had already passed in Middle Earth time.

It was the evening of the 5th day after starting the quest. In other words, he only had 15 days left.

‘It is 20 days in Middle Earth, it means 4 days in real-time. I could do it while reducing sleep, but… I even overslept, or have an unexpected situation, 3 days will fly away in an instant.’

‘Heup, this, it should be fine since I don’t go out.’

Leeha could earn money by catching boss monsters, but he knew that if other users get strong enough, more people would make Middle Earth their main job.

It could save time, and there’s a high chance to hit jackpot in terms of making money.

‘I like the Brass Golem, but there’s no need to do that kind of hard work. The higher I go, the better items would come out, so becoming an expert is the fastest way.’

Besides, Leeha didn’t know when the next chance to monopolize it would come.

Leeha only knew when the right timing it would appear.

“Well then, let’s start again.” Leeha followed the roadrunner’s footprints once again.

As he was about to pursue the trail, he saw dust rising from the distance.

“Huh?”

It appeared as soon as I connected? Besides, the direction was familiar.

“Q-quick!”

Leeha started reloading.

It was visible in the distance, but its speed was slow. Leeha clearly remembered seeing it.

‘No way.’

Leeha finished reloading and ran quickly.

His main purpose was to reduce their distance, but at the same time, he wanted to take a look at the roadrunner

“Haa, haa.”

He jumped on the nearby rock.

The ground shattered as the bird kicked its feet. Leeha didn’t know if it was the same bird he saw last time, but it did not matter right now.

‘That road, that route……’

Leeha slowly leaned against the rock. It was obvious.

It looked like it was running in a straight line

but it turned slightly left before going straight again. And after running for a while, it turned right and ran again.

It wasn’t distinguishable from a distance.

He was able to see the roadrunner’s [Path] because he used the Eagle’s Eye.

‘Eagle’s Eye.’

Leeha adjusted the magnification and pressed the musket’s butt to his shoulder.

‘Let’s see…… After going straight for another 80m-.’

The roadrunner was visible to him. The distance? Wind direction? Wind speed?

‘It’s okay. It’s the same as before. I already feel it. Calm Mind.’

The first moment it turned to the left. At the same time as the skill activated, Leeha’s index finger moved.

Bang——!

A celebratory sound was heard.

Babam-!

[Achievement: You can’t see me! (B-)]

Congratulations! You can’t be seen 200m away. Feel free to shoot, the enemy won’t even know who you are.

Effect : Strength +4, Agility +9

You are the third registrant of the achievement [You can’t see me].

The first three registrants of the achievement will be recorded in the Hall of Fame, and an additional 200% of the existing effect will be applied.

Effect : Strength +8, Agility +18

The first thought that came to Leeha’s mind before joy was ‘as expected’.

He instinctively knew the path it would take, after chasing it for 2 days.

“3 people in 100m. And 3 people in 200m.”

So what about 300m? Did they already succeed? Leeha shook his head and brushed off his thoughts.

He would think about it later. What he needed to do now was to pick up the roadrunner’s tail feather 200m away.

“Phew……. But what is wrong with this guy?”

Looting the item from the little bird lying down on the ground, Leeha felt something was off.

Why? The forest he was in was far from the wasteland.

This was the place he found the roadrunner was at after several days of pursuit.

Wasn’t the roadrunner’s main location the wasteland? It was a desert-like place with canyons, rocks, and sand.

‘I came here after following it, but…. Wasn’t it like it had been waiting here? Will it be going back to the wasteland from now on-.’

Huh?

A thought suddenly came to Leeha’s mind.

Road? Route?

‘No, wait. This quest……. Now I realize…… I first thought the purpose of the quest was to shoot a fast-moving target. Of course, I can, but how come I feel something is wrong?’

 Leeha opened the quest window to check the name of the quest.

[Accuracy Enhancement Training – 2: Sniper and Hunter]

And he focused on the description.

Do you know the secret of sniping? The beauty of sniping is not shooting fast-moving targets. Rather, it is like hunting.

When the target makes little movement, the most fun part is the thrill of escaping after hitting the target and turning the place into a battlefield.

‘Ahh-! That’s right!’

That’s why it’s hunting! That’s it!

“Hahaha, director Browless-nim, you’re a complete scammer! No, Middle Earth is a scammer.”

It was a trap! Leeha was able to see the trap of this quest.

“Okay, I have 15 days. Great.”

Leeha quickly unfolded his map.

The road between the capital and the wasteland, where he was currently at, and the roads of the wasteland, and the nearby roads.

After checking all the information he remembered on the map, Leeha started moving again.

“I should prepare to snipe.”

Leeha began to wait for his next target with a clear mind.

Bang–! Ehihihi!

The startled horse roughly neighed.

“Whoa, whoa.”

His face was covered with a helmet, so his expression could not be seen, but just hearing his voice, one could tell that the knight wasn’t flustered.

Even when the horse he rode ran wildly, he simply stroked its mane slowlly, and the body of the knight was not disturbed in the slightest.

“It’s okay, it’s okay.”

After stroking the horse’s mane for a while,

it calmed down.

‘What is that sudden gunshot? Is there a musketeer nearby?

This was not a place for hunting,

it was a transport road, and there were no users who come here because it was not a good hunting ground.

There would be at most some warriors who come here to dig in order to raise their carpentry skills.

‘There is no way a musketeer can do carpentry. This should be fun.’

The knight was somewhat curious.

His quest took a long time, but he still had a lot of time.

‘He’s unlikely to be in a place like this, but if he’s a musketeer, he might know…

The knight thought for a moment.

Pururuk, puruk-!

As if it knew what his master thought, the horse turned its head.

“Done……

Phew, Leeha took a deep breath. He had been on the rock for five Middle Earth days.

“Heuuuuk!”

After stretching, Leeha got the fifth tail feather! He finally completed the condition for Browless’s quest.

‘The thrill of sniping, haha, sniping and hunting.’

Leeha thought about the day he got his first tail feather.

The roadrunner had habits. It was said that one roadrunner would run through the forest at a time.

From the moment it spawned, it traveled through the desert and wasteland, and always stopped at the forest in the evening.

‘The time limit was 20 days. And the hints in the quest window.’

Perhaps there was another way.

However, Leeha was convinced that this was the clearing method that Browless wanted.

‘I was wrong from the start. I thought it was a normal monster, and I chased after it.’

That was a trap.

Tracking was what hunters did. The beauty of hunting was tracking.

So what about sniping? It was waiting. Waiting.

Both professions take information about the target but process that information differently.

‘The most appropriate time to shoot a target was when there is the least variable.’

Obviously, even on the wasteland, it would have run only on specific routes.

However, there was no need to go to another place since Leeha knew that there was the least amount of dust when the roadrunner ran along the forest road or when it changed its direction while running.

All that remained was to pull the trigger while the target was at its easiest point to shoot.

The quest inevitably required time because of the waiting, not the difficulty of hunting.

‘Was that the reason why the time limit was 20 days?’

That must have been the reason why I was given more time than when I went to catch the Brass Golem.

Middle Earth certainly gave hints from the very beginning. It was a bit disappointing to find out after all I have gone through.

“Well, it isn’t too late~ Phew. ”

Leeha opened his map again.

It needed a day’s walk to get to the capital. In reality, it would have been exhausting, but in Middle Earth, it was nothing.

Anyway, when Leeha completed the quest he still had 11 days left, so there was no need to rush at all.

If it wasn’t for the voice he heard from behind.

“Hey!”

“Hmm?”

“Found you……. Haha, I found you. Ha Leeha.”

There were approximately ten people in front of Leeha.

The people in front of him were wearing black hoods, so Leeha couldn’t see their faces, but he could tell that they were up to no good.

“Who. are you?”

“Where did you get that ring?”

“Ring?”

Leeha turned his hand, pretending not to know.

He also secretly took out a reload set from his bag.

An unknown hood, a ring, and a group.

With only these words, he could guess who they were.

‘So that video…… damn it. Damned bastard.’

It was too late now. He cursed the user who uploaded the Brass Golem video

but he had already been caught.

Their hoods and cloaks fluttered as they clenched their teeth.

Their appearance was shown. And an image of a Rising Sun was proudly embedded in their chests, shields, and helmets.

“Where do you think you are going, you bastard? Give it to me! It’s really expensive!”

“Ha Leeha! You bastard thought I wouldn’t find you?”

“Hey! Where did Biyemi go? Tell us, you bastard!” They were people from Rising Sun.
