A genius gamer is reincarnated into a famous hero episode 145

The law of strong self-respect (1)

After leaving the guild lobby, the first place Harang stopped by was a clothing store. The old robe that I picked up from the Flower Tower was unusual and stood out because it was so old.

Harang purchased a thick black coat with white fur on the neck and cuffs and wore a backpack worn on his side that was shortened to fit his body.

Although there is a sub-space anyway, a backpack was essential to hide the existence of sub-space from enemies, and a backpack was much more convenient than a sub-space when taking out necessary items.

The means of transportation in the North mainly used horse-drawn carriages or sleighs instead of horse-drawn carriages.

When traveling safely on paved roads, horse-drawn carriages are often used, but when traveling long distances, even if it is a little dangerous, sleds are said to be used to quickly cover icy roads, so Harang also adopted sleds for fast travel.

There was plenty of money. This is because they wiped out the Blacklum mercenary group and stocked up on a lot of currency used in the cold land.

This mission wasn’t just about going to Deltain territory and hunting down demons.

While performing your mission, you will have to withstand the onslaught of mercenaries that attack you.

“Deltan spirit? “As long as you pay the price.”

Harang, who was on the sled, felt the sensation of slipping and opened the map. After purchasing several maps from the city and comparing them, she noticed that each map looked different.

‘There was some tinkering with the map.’

The whole city is in one place. The intention may be to pick on foreigners when they come.

‘At least they didn’t touch me because of the rule of not attacking when I was in the city… … .’

Now that you’re out of the city, you never know when or where mercenaries might pop out.

After thinking about that, Harang felt something strange and raised his head.

The direction the sled was heading was slightly twisted from east. Because Harang had such a good sense of direction, he was able to detect it with great sensitivity.

‘They say it starts as soon as you leave the city.’

Harang quietly took out the Cheongwolheun and asked the sledder.

“Where are you going?”

“Of course it’s Delta… … Sheesh, I got caught!”

Seeing Harang with his sword drawn, the sledder quickly jumped up, but Harang cut him down in one go.

“Wow… … .”

The sledder fell to the ground, bleeding profusely and losing consciousness. Since Harang did not know how to drive wolves, it seemed that the sled could no longer be used.

I searched the area to see if the sledder’s companion was lurking nearby, but fortunately there was no ambush.

‘The good news is that the mercenaries’ attacks are different.’

If mercenaries attack all at once, no matter how low-ranking they are, it will be a pain in the ass. Mercenaries with strong individualistic tendencies never showed military-like concentration.

‘There may be mercenaries operating in teams, so I need to be careful.’

After checking to see if there were any useful items from the sledder, Harang released the wolves’ leashes and set out.

After walking east for about half a day, a village appeared. When I entered the village, there was not a single sign of popularity. Most of the buildings are old and have fallen into disrepair.

It was a ruin.

‘It would take almost three days to reach the Deltan Territory by sledge.’

If you run at full speed, you can reach your destination faster than a sled, but you have to save your stamina in preparation for the mercenaries’ offensive.

So, I tried to stop at a village on the way and take a rest, but the place I ended up in was a ruin.

Harang looked around for a moment and spotted two people walking from the edge of the ruins. One was a crossbowman with a pointed head and suspicious-looking goggles, and the other was a muscular warrior easily over 2 meters tall.

The warrior was dragging his mace and found Harang, grinning and nodding to the archer.

Shoo! A gunner climbs a building and climbs to the roof as if flying. As Harang was looking at him, the warrior leaped forward with all his might and swung his mace.

Buuuuung! A barbed mace that swings as it tears through the air! Harang only watched the whole scene slowly.

I easily dodged the mace by taking a half step to the side, and it crashed into the floor, creating a huge crater.

A momentary gap. It is difficult to retrieve such a large weapon, so if you rush in recklessly, you will quickly be targeted at a vital point.

Sigh!! Before Harang could aim his sword, an arrow fired from the roof of the building rushed towards his forehead.

visor! Harang, who easily struck down the arrow with a twist of his sword, was slightly surprised by the stronger impact than she expected.

‘Are there auras in the arrow?’

“Kaaaaap!!”

Thanks to the momentary gap created by the archer, the warrior pulled the mace out of the ground, spun it in the sky, and flew as if aiming for Harang’s side.

He tried to avoid it by easily jumping, but three arrows shot at Harang’s head in succession.

If you stay still you won’t get hit by an arrow, but if you jump you will get hit!

After thinking that far, Harang flexibly leaned back to avoid the mace.

Buung-kwaaaang!!

A mace that destroys an entire abandoned building! Harang quickly got up with a backward rotation and rushed towards the warrior.

‘The arrow is in the way.’

The warrior was placed in the crossbow’s trajectory so that the shooter could no longer interfere.

Wedge!

“… … !!”

The arrow twisted its trajectory in the air and flew towards Harang’s neck!

He tried to block it by twisting his neck, but the warrior pulled it with all his might and was hit by the mace he retrieved, sending him crashing into the building.

Kwaang!!

A shock too strong for a young boy to handle.

“hey!! “I told you that if you damage it, the value of the product will decrease!”

A gunner shouts from the roof of a building. The warrior muttered as he retrieved his mace with a shy expression.

“Didn’t you say he was a four-star prosecutor? There’s no way I could die like this… … hmm?”

The warrior noticed something strange and narrowed his eyes.

does not exist.

Harang, who should have been stuck against the wall of the building, was not visible.

At that moment, I had a creepy thought and looked up at the sky.

Quack!! A small explosion occurred on the roof of the building where the shooter was standing.

“this… … !”

He hurriedly threw his mace towards that place and collapsed the entire roof of the building, but Harang, who cut off the shooter’s head, easily landed on the floor.

Okay! Harang, who scattered the gunner’s blood in the air, aimed his sword at the mace warrior.

“I wonder how well you can handle that mace without the annoying gunner.”

“This bastard… … .”

A warrior with strong destructive power but many weaknesses. An archer who has a weapon with a long range, but is weak in destructive power and interpersonal combat when fighting alone.

They were working as a team of two to compensate for each other’s weaknesses, showing pretty good teamwork, but if one of them is missing, they can’t fully demonstrate their power.

Coo… !

After defeating the warrior with a mace, Harang wiped his sword with a handkerchief and looked up at the sky. The sun was already setting.

‘Than you think… … ‘It wasn’t an easy opponent.’

This was my first time dealing with mercenaries who worked well as a team with a small number of people. If they hadn’t underestimated their level to 4 stars, it would have been a bit dangerous.

I would have won somehow, but it might have cost me a lot of stamina or caused me even more serious injuries.

Since I might be fighting for several days, I had to conserve my stamina as much as possible.

Sssssseu!

“… … .”

At sunset, black shadows pass through the remains of ruined buildings.

Harang sighed and looked at the side of Cheongwolheun reflected in the sunset.

A warm scarlet sunset was falling on the side of the sword, and his face, his cheeks slightly red, was glaring at me with an expression full of dissatisfaction.

What is it about that damn aesthetic that makes humans so blinded by desire?

Was aesthetics so important that it made you stupid enough to jump into something without even knowing that your life was nothing more than a moth to a flame?

If it had been the Central Continent, Kaladun’s identity would have been revealed and this trouble would not have happened.

In this land where Caladern has little influence, only the great lords would like it, thinking that revealing one’s identity would increase the value of the product.

Your identity must be hidden for the time being.

therefore.

‘If there are any mercenaries who have seen my silver eyes, they must all be silenced.’

The moment his eyes became colored like cold moonlight, someone jumped into the air from behind Harang in the blue moon.

“Gotcha… Huh?!”

The mercenary, who jumped in with the intention of attacking Harang from behind, was pierced through the chest by the thorns of a rock rising from the floor and died.

“What is that… ?!”

“Well, it’s magic, right?”

“Damn, is there a helper?!”

“Why on earth would a wizard… … .”

Since magic was a very mysterious phenomenon here, the mercenaries were clearly confused. Do you really not know that your location will be revealed by the sound you make every time you do that?

‘These guys were small children.’

There is no need to use magic. Because mana is a waste. Harang lightly leapt and killed all the mercenaries with a single sword. After wiping away the blood, she put back her backpack that she had put down on the floor.

The ruins that no one was looking for were stained red with the corpses of mercenaries, but Harang left without any regrets.

There is still a long way to go.

* * *

“… … “I heard that all the mercenaries who attacked that guy were wiped out?”

Although he was an individualistic mercenary, when he performed similar missions, rumors tended to spread quite quickly.

It was around the third day after Harang left the city for the Dongpae exam.

At the edge of a deep forest near Delta Inn Territory, five mercenaries were gathered at the top of a cliff.

“As long as they hold the prey’s feet, they have done their job.”

“It seems that the prey was bigger than I thought. “They’re not just running away, they’re killing them all.”

“It’s amazing that he reached 4 stars at that age… … .”

“You must never leave it alone!”

Axe’s mercenary, Bainkal, groans and thumps the floor! I took a picture. He was a mercenary who had been fighting on the battlefield for over a dozen years and had recently barely achieved 4-star status, and he had a record of bragging and receiving praise from all kinds of mercenaries for being able to command a strong reputation.

But what? The 15-year-old kid who suddenly appears is a 4-star like me?

“I can’t admit it… … He must be from a noble family somewhere beyond that island country. “He must have achieved 4 stars by drinking a lot of elixirs even though he has never fought properly!”

As Bainkal gritted his teeth and spoke, the mercenary leader Kales shook his head.

“The fact that you, who had been drinking on empty days and neglecting your training, achieved 4 stars with just one talent must be unpleasant enough for others to see.”

Despite Kaless’s words, Bainkal huffed and looked over the cliff.

“I will have to tell you in person how vain the state we have achieved with elixirs is. It must have been fun against this guy… … “I will make it so that you can never hold a sword again.”

“Whoa… … .”

Sighing, Leader Bainkal had no choice but to be cautious once more.

“Kaless. We’re not trying to kill him. You must not cut limbs or cause ugly wounds. Because they want to sell it as a product. Do you remember the slave traders watching with their eyes wide open? “Great lord-level nobles are waiting.”

“… … “I know.”

Kaleth barely looks calm.

Bainkal took out a longbow from his back, fired it, and glared down the cliff.

Ssssss… … !!

In an instant, the field of view expanded and the far distance seemed to be greatly enlarged as if it were just a stone’s throw away.

In the northern, cold land, if you say you are a ‘mercenary from a bear hunter’, most mercenaries will respect you.

Respect does not come from my heart because their achievements are great.

Because I was afraid, yes.

Even in the guild, their amazing archery skills were such that they were able to instantly kill their prey by firing supersonic Auror arrows with their longbows from a distance of over a hundred meters.

The leader, Bainkal, was a 5-star archer capable of sniping at ultra-long ranges.

‘I don’t know where he got it from or how great he is… … .’

Bainkal slowly raised his longbow and placed the arrow on the string. An arrow that forms a pure white aura and begins to burn fiercely.

‘Once you become my prey, it’s over.’

Tung-

The protest was canceled.

… … Quang-!!

A ray of pure white light rushed toward the target, spreading shock waves.

“It might hurt a little, but you won’t die…” .”

Wow!

Harang lightly struck down the arrow.

“… … what?”

As the beam’s trajectory twisted and landed in the wrong place, Bainkal, who did not understand the situation for a moment, ended up making a stupid sound. Because he never even thought that his arrow would miss!

‘What happened… … ?’

You shot down an arrow fired from this far away without even looking?

‘Does that make sense?’

Even Bainkal, who had been hunting the violent northern bears for so many years, could not understand what was happening.
