Chapter 15
Ch 15
‘Okay, I will do it even if it’s dirty.’
Of course, Leeha can only say that to himself, and instead smiled brightly.
“Hehehe. Thank you, I will try my best.”
When Leeha pressed the Yes button, Annie brought some bread from the basket.
Sweet croissants, high quality bread with the price tag of 6 copper each. He got more by using words, although it was risky.
“Here, as part of my request. I’m Annie.”
“I’m Ha Leeha. 12 hours. Please wait for me. I will definitely get it.”
“Please, Ha Leeha-nim.”
Nim? I was treated like a beggar just before. Huh, is it a realistic game, or a game like reality, isn’t it more brutal than reality?
“The bread is delicious.”
Leeha got out and went into the corner of the alley and took a bite of the bread. It was quite sweet. Damn it, is this bread wet with tears?
He was trying to take a bite again, but something unexpected appeared before his eyes.
[Learned Bargaining skill.]
“Hmm? Skill?”
So suddenly? Leeha opened his skill window.
Description: High risk, high return. You can get additional rewards by going all in. Keep in mind that a negotiation isn’t about throwing a tantrum, it’s about listening to the other person’s wants and providing it quickly!
Effect: Depending on intimacy, there’s a 20% chance to change the condition of quests and it is possible to trade items with NPCs.
“What do you mean tantrum? Right, so what do I need to do. I have to finish the quest within 12 hours.
‘The scariest thing in the world are humans. Did Goople want to prove this? Is it really necessary to implement humanlike NPCs like this? I felt like I lost all my energy while bargaining.’
After Leeha ate a croissant and filled up his stomach, it was already night and dark in the central fountain square, but there are still a lot of people.
And Leeha heard a shout. “We are looking for party members~ Those who want to go hunting the black rabbit, please come!”

‘Black Rabbit?’ The person who was shouting seemed to be a warrior.
He is wearing an armor that is a mixture of iron plate and leather, while holding a weapon that looks like an iron rod and a shield in his other hand. Leeha did not know whether the man was a user or NPC, unless the man revealed his name first.
“Are you going to hunt the Black Furred Rabbit?”
“……Yes.”
“Ah, you are. What is the required level to join the party?”
“Umm, what job do you have?”
“Mus- no, I am a ranged dealer.” The shield warrior’s eyes looked up and down. With just that glance, he could see, no, in fact, he wasn’t friendly to begin with.
The man with a bow behind the warrior said.“ I don’t think you can do it yet.”
Next to him, a man with a strange book was stared at Leeha. Seeing that the book was white, he should be a healer.
Leeha answered. “I was just asking. Just asking. Haha.”
The healer answered. “Well. It should be at least 7 people. And we have eleven.”
Leeha was hopeful, but the man with the bow shook his head and waved his hand as if annoyed.
“Ignore him and save a spot for other players. Looks at his shoes, it doesn’t seem like he’s level 5.”
“Right. First, let’s get one more dealer and then proceed.”
“Even if it’s just a rabbit, it’s still a boss, and we don’t have any information. We can’t do the quest again when we die.”
“Although it can take a while, we need to get a user at our level before we start.”
The archer and healer said without looking at Leeha. Of course, Leeha listened to them in order to get information from they conversation.
However, he was driven away by the archer who was in the same party as the warrior.
‘If your level is low, you’ll be treated like that. To be ignored by 11 people or so. Level 5? Shoes? Damn it. I have to get stronger quickly. By the way, is there a black rabbit quest at their level? They can’t do it again when they die?’
Leeha looked at his quest. There was no part saying that if you die. Then they have similar but different quest. It is enough information. He was completely ignored, but he did not change his expression. Even if he can’t join the party, he can still get a useful information, as the saying goes, you can’t spit on a smiling face.
“What quest do you have?”
“It’s a fur quest, and I don’t think it has anything to do with you.”
“Ah, I see. Okay, thank you.”
Leeha was still polite to the arrogant users until the end.
Raising his voice and fighting won’t help, and he had already obtained the information he wanted.
‘There is a quest to get shoes at level 5, and there is another NPC that gives a quest related to a black rabbit fur. Is it a costume related quest?
Anyway, the armor and clothing store are also near the fountain square, so I should go there. Like in the bakery, if I show the pouch from Madame Lou, I may be able to obtain the quest more easily. And they said let’s take one more dealer, right? Looking at their combination, one tank, one dealer, one healer.’
Leeha was a soldier, so he had good eyes. As a result of looking at their equipment, it meant that it is a quest that can be handled by 4 people from level 8 to 12 anyway.
‘The remaining time is 12 hours.’
Leeha looked at the sunset in the sky. Now that the moon has just risen, it is time for the black-haired rabbit, the Black Angus, to appear.
‘Still, there is no need to rush, hunting and leveling up comes first. Currently, my stats is close to level 8-9, but my actual level is 2. Others are also accumulating achievements, so I shouldn’t be fooled by numbers. First, rabbit hunting. And with the determination that once I go out, I will not return, I must take all the quests at once. One rabbit for one bullet. There is no unit price for one quest. If the shops are closed at night, I cannot meet the merchants, so I have to move as fast as possible. I need to hurry.’
“Thank you, ma’am. I will choose a very nice guy with a soft and warm fur.”
“Oh, this young man makes a nice speech. I’ve finished measuring your size, so I’ll work on your clothes.”
“Aigu, Thank you for the words alone. Haha, then I’ll come tomorrow morning!”
Leeha politely closed the door as he stepped out of the dressing room. He has a face full of laughter, are his hardships at the grocery store and the bakery finally paying off?
Leeha opened his skill window.
Description: High Risk, High Return. You can get additional rewards by going all in. Keep in mind that a negotiation isn’t about throwing a tantrum, it’s about listening to the other person’s wants and providing it quickly!
Effect: Depending on intimacy, there’s a 21% chance to change the condition of quests and it is possible to trade items with NPCs.
In just an hour, Leeha got three black-furred rabbit related quests.
‘Heuheu, the skill level quickly became 2 because I changed a few quest conditions and succeeded, right? No, the skill was obviously helpful, but my conversation skills have increased quite a bit. Now I roughly know how to talk to NPCs. I have to scratch the itchy area.’
Anyway, NPCs are the inhabitants who risk their lives in this world. It is highly likely that the words spoken by strangers as if they were playing a game would sound rude to them, so of course they hate it.
As he learned at the bakery, he was able to receive some help as a good reward thanks to the condition that he would finish the quest in one day.
‘Meat in a restaurant, herbs in a bakery, fur in a tailor’s shop, claws in a weapon shop. And eyeballs for the accessory store. Poor black rabbit, you’ll be looted off from head to toe. The herb is said to sprout in the black-furred rabbit’s poop, which means not only from head to toe, but also poop. Such a pitiable guy.’
Leeha did not get out of Candle Castle until he got all the black-furred rabbit related quests from the NPCs.
‘Looks like they’re already gone.’
Leeha, who leisurely walked out of the south gate, looked at the users around him.
Even though it’s night in the game and the surrounding is dark, he was still enthusiastic about hunting. Leeha felt his blood boiling.
‘Let’s spend the next four hours on leveling.’
Leeha opened his bag..
Not enough ammunition and gunpowder. It cannot be used to catch rabbits.
‘Money… … Until I save enough money… … I can’t help it’
Leeha locked his bag tightly.
5 shots needed to get quality rabbit meat. Other than that, Leeha looked at the musket and held it upside down.
‘Am I really a musketeer or a fighter?.’
Leeha sighed and gave strength to his hand holding the muzzle.
“Come on, you guys.”
Kkui? Kkui, kkuit-!
Teok, Teok.
The rabbit’s screams and Leeha’s laughter echoed in the air
And looking at his appearance, users below level 5 are surprised to see Leeha.
“No matter if it’s a game, it’s too cruel.. Is he hitting the rabbit with a stick?”
“What is that? There’s a job with a stick like that? What? What the hell is that?”
“Oh? Isn’t that a gun?”
“Gun? What gun? There’s a gun in Middle Earth?”
“Heol! Amazing. But that butt is very strong.”
“I have to hit three times with my sword, but that person only needs two. Crazy… … How does he have so much strength
“Is he a warrior? But why the gun?”
Despite people’s surprise, Leeha did not go anywhere.
One rabbit, two rabbit, three rabbit… … Now somehow he has to catch one more rabbit.
The buzz of the surrounding users who saw Leeha was growing. No matter how much they look at, he looked like a user with a similar level with them, with strange weapons, strange hunting method, and considerable attack power.
Rumors about an ignorant user wielding a blunt weapon on the beginner hunting ground of Candle Castle quickly spread. Questions about odd jobs in the community also boomed for a while.
