Becoming an Academy Cowboy

chapter 20



Fallen Dragon Corpse (1)

Looking at Sorina’s indignant face, the thought that if caught, she might actually die came to her.

Because when a good person gets angry, it scares them even more.

I raise my hand and stop her.

“Wait a minute. Wait a minute!! sound we are friends It’s okay to shoot a shotgun at a friend. And you provoked first, didn’t you?”

“okay. It’s okay to fire a grenade at your friends, and even at your allies. Shotguns are a little cruel.”

Lee Jung-soo, who walks to and fro, throws it away.

“okay. I’m not even a friend, so it’s cheap even if I get shot with a shotgun.”

And Park Seo-hoo, who was shot by my shotgun, said something similar.

“What. it was a match I’m sorry about that.”

“Still, this is a bit like that!”

With tears in her eyes, Sorina’s face, chasing after her with a halberd, seemed to burn.

I need to look away before she even calls me a navigator with a folder.

Just then the cavalry arrived.

Seeing the report card ringing on her cell phone, she desperately stops her.

“Look at this score here instead. I’m 91 points. You are 87 points!”

She got the second highest score after me and Yoon Yi-gon.

In that situation, it was meant to subdue the supporter based on his clear judgment.

“It’s a high score. If that’s the case, wouldn’t supplemental training be done? If I had checked you first, I might not have been able to receive it.”

Of course, her high grades and what I did were two different things.

It was a good feeling for her to get high grades while smirking.

If you laugh and cry… it’s not a good time to make a joke like that.

Especially the spanking issue.

“If you don’t have to go to replenishment, how about going to the dungeon this Saturday? Let’s make money there. I found a place where I can make a lot of money.”

Her answer didn’t sound right.

“sweet potato···”

“yes?”

she is close

And slapped my cheeks as hard as I could.

The shock that seemed to be coming from the sonic boom instantly made me lose my mind.

“After Hobini Dungeon, I buy sweet potato and cheese pork cutlet.”

“Okay.”

It was quite a shocking reward for a punishment for a blasphemous criminal who had spanked an overage virgin.

As I watched her walk away, I could see why she became the queen of pain.

The taste is savory.

Even though I received an industry award once, I feel like I’ve become a Kaiser cleanser for a while.

I limped and headed to the workshop.

There was only a status window that showed that the level of understanding was slightly increased.

And besides that, I got one more thing.

It has to do with my skills.

Being a cowboy, I thought I would have at least one, but I didn’t expect to get this.

But I don’t think I need to use it now.

Just mastering firearms, I’m pretty busy right now.

[Your relationship with Sori or Mondragon changes.]

Study helpers – a sticky relationship with each other

I headed to the workshop.

*

Many cadets failed to pass a given test.

As a result, numerous retests and special supplements awaited them.

However, since I never failed in such a thing, I was able to devote the remaining time to my own training and clearing the dungeon.

After school, I went outside the academy, subdue F-D dungeons, sold by-products and got loot.

There were so many detailed explanations that I had to omit it, so there were times when I was tired.

The things I got after about two weeks were brought to the workshop and filled my wallet.

Occasionally, I accompanied Sona.

Nevertheless, I have too many things to invest in.

“after. It’s like sitting on top of a pile of debt.”

It would be great if the finished product could fall like magic in the dungeon and use such a weapon.

This world is not such a comfortable place.

Of course, things dropped by humanoid monsters can be used, but most otherworldly objects must be decontaminated to make them safe for human use, and that is money.

Above all, the beam weapons dropped by future monsters are ineffective for me.

In this society, guardians and hunters are high-risk, high-return jobs.

If you constantly grow, develop your arms and yourself, and constantly acquire wealth, you can live a prosperous life.

News reports that the well-known Guardians have successfully conquered the dungeon and blocked the Gate Outbreak.

People glorify them with a splash of saliva, and Guardians enjoy life in luxury cars and celebrity life.

But on the other side of that society, there are people who are struggling like me.

A life where every fight is the so-called life bread.

If you fail to explore the dungeon and lose funds or get injured, you may not be able to recover.

Even insurance companies do not want to insure those who are level C or lower.

It is the life of a person who is not strange when he dies. The cadets are pretty good though.

I took the Mosin Nagant and sighed.

Arguably, this gun is the best Betty could pull off with the money and materials I could give her.

But the problem is that the money you have to pay for this is no joke.

I feel like my back is already bent.

“The barrel was too worn out, so I got a new one. With a steel wire barrel engraved with the runes of Dwarves’ lower reinforcement, a speed-increasing magic was applied to the muzzle. Although this may not have a range, it is three times more powerful than a conventional gun and twice the impact force. Its destructive power is enough to pierce through the fortified shells of monsters.”

I touched the gun.

It felt like I had just cast a magic spell.

Betty gets excited and starts explaining things.

“Probably, if you use the right bullets, you have hardened it enough to pierce enemies like golems and hard-skinned bugs. Of course, the chamber was also changed to prevent bullets from exploding or exploding inside the gun. Now, even if you put a lot of bullets in it and shoot it, if you set the caliber, it will fire well.”

“I was worried, but it seems to have been resolved.”

“I plated the trigger with mana stones imbued with the magic of the spirits. Attribute-related damage can be tuned with ammunition.”

She showed me a small button on the outside of the trigger cage.

“It is a simple button mechanical type, not an electronic type, and the structure is simple enough that even customers can use it. It will never break.”

I pressed the button on the gun.

By changing the light color in front of the muzzle, you could see what attributes the gun had.

“And the gong was made through the pulsating power part of a bizarre pile of flesh. Hitting the ball is the most important thing. It’s the direct part that fires the gun. In a recently published paper…”

“I know how important it is to hit the ball. So what effect?”

Her face turns as red as her hair again.

“ah. I’m sorry. I was about to stumble again and again. I don’t have anyone to talk to about guns anymore…”

It’s nice to have friends to cuddle with.

And she doesn’t seem to have many friends.

[Understanding has increased!]

“It was processed to capture the resentment of those who became zombies. It was commissioned by the Vatican to perform an exorcism and smelted cleanly so that it does not smell. Every time you pull the trigger, you can feel Shimo Hae Hae-hae’s touch. Would you like to try a test shot?”

“no. You don’t have to. Guns touched by craftsmen are also different. Even if you stick with it, I know what it feels like.”

i take the gun And touch the part you are most satisfied with.

“I left it as a scale and a sight.”

“Absolutely. Only the blind sniper becomes a legend. That’s why you didn’t receive the right eye surgery for the snipe, did you?”

To hunt monsters, we also became monsters.

Many people, as hunters or guardians, did not hesitate to put machines into their bodies to deal with the enemies of the other world.

“Of course. Because only humans can catch monsters.”

“Human hymns are good. So, all these prices add up to 3 million credits.”

sighed.

Almost all of the money you have to invest here is second to the money you have to pay for tuition.

He offered her money with sad eyes.

Betty shamelessly took what I couldn’t get her hands off of the cash yet.

“Is there any way to get more discount? From now on, I will only make guns here, and I don’t think there will be any other guests here except me.”

“It should be. But I have too much to pay. The cost of materials was also very high. You also have to pay for labor costs. You will also have to gradually collect the cost of upgrading the workshop. I also have to pay tuition and I think I will have to buy rice today.”

It is clear that both of them have a difficult life.

The earth spoon experience should be finished as soon as possible.

“Then how about this? I sign an exclusive contract. The customer entrusts the repair and modification of the gun only to me, and puts the promotional text on the back. I am offering a 10% discount.”

“Twenty percent.”

weird fight. It is a negotiation that cannot be broken at the point in time when both know that they need each other anyway.

It’s just a fight for the anglerfish to eat a little more.

A strange battle ensues between the two.

“13 percent.”

“17 percent.”

“Shall we agree on a dramatic 15 percent?”

This is the picture I wanted.

Because I can’t find another workshop anyway.

“Dil?”

“Dil.”

“Would you mind supplying some ammunition to commemorate the signing of the exclusive contract? I would be satisfied if they gave it to me at a discounted price.”

“sir. Is that right?”

While grumbling, she gave the bullet saying that if it was a full-time job, it had to be done.

And the second I’m aiming for.

“And I’m also looking for an operator. Anyone know?”

her face hardens

“There is only one operator I know. And she’s one of the best people I know. But they won’t listen to me.”

“Let me meet you once.”

She asks uncomfortable questions.

“What is your rank now?”

“1012, etc.”

“Then I don’t even have a chin. There’s no reason for her to see you, at least not by leaps and bounds in rank.”

“Is there anyone in charge?”

“no. No. However···”

Looking at her hesitant face and thinking about the past she read in books, I think I can understand why.

But here, I have to pretend I don’t know.

“But why?”

“My sister and I don’t get along well. My sister thinks Smith and Smith Gunsmith is holding her back. And I think of people who actually use these guns as geeks. So I switched to an operator.”

“If I come out with an old-fashioned weapon, I will probably play.”

“It’s natural. Besides, if you say you rank low, they’ll just treat you like a geek or an idiot.”

“Then you just have to level up. Is it this?”

*

The academy is a strictly hierarchical society. And I am an F-grade first-year student at the bottom of that class society.

I am in the 1000th place out of a first-year class of about 1,200 students. It means almost to the end.

Because of that, the accommodation I received is a one-room apartment and I go to school by tram.

Besides, it is impossible to get a proper operator offer or a party offer for this bottom fighter.

As if to prove him, I wasn’t given a proper mission.

The other children in the class are now assigned F-D-class missions.

Although it is at the level of Korean-American that I don’t know if this is a mission or an errand.

Of course, a decent mission means a mission good enough to earn money and rank up.

Management of a dungeon that no one will go to is such a dirty mission that it is difficult to perform the mission properly and the rewards are small even if cleared.

Isn’t that a good subcontractor to a national or public academy?

I had no intention of coming here either, but this is my first mission.

Most of all, if you refuse an assignment, you are likely to get caught by the instructor.

“Is this a mercenary, academy?”

Lee Jung-soo sat down, expressing his dissatisfaction.

The task assigned to me now is to clean up the instance dungeon ‘Falled Dragon’s Corpse’ with the three members of Class C.

A mission to drive out parasites near the corpse of a dragon that died during the First War and blow up the heart of a rotting dragon.

Although it is set as an appropriate D-class dungeon, it takes a long time to clear due to the promiscuous attack pattern of the enemy, and the reward is rather salty compared to the time taken, so it is also a place where people do not go.

In addition, it is inconvenient to have to wear a gas mask throughout the dungeon subjugation because of the poisonous gas emitted from the dragon’s corpse.

Anyone who has climbed a mountain in a gas mask will understand what I’m saying.

Instance dungeons, where not many people go, will run rampant someday.

Officials outsourced the most reliable Fallen Hope, and Fallen Hope used to entrust the mission to cadets who could barely clear the dungeon.

The four-person mission was assigned to me, Namgoongyeon, Lee Jeongsu, and Kana Yoko.

Instructor Keira assigns us a mission as the instructor in charge.

“The team is tasked with clearing the instance dungeon ‘Falled Dragon Corpse’ located in Gwangju, Gyeonggi-do, on February 17, 2031, exactly tomorrow at 14:00. The team leader is Rahobin. and···.”

“Wait!”

It’s weird when you don’t speak. This is Namgungyeon

“The team leader is Rahobin? He’s ranked lower than us. And how can you put me under him…”

Instructor Keira calmly interrupted her and answered.

“First, Rahobin did the most dungeon subjugation in this party. Yes, maybe 10 times or so, but after entering school, I went to different dungeons 3 to 5 times a week or more to improve my practical skills.”

Three gazes pouring towards me.

Kana and Lee Jung-soo were tied to the academy after school to receive special reinforcements after Helmachi, and Namgoong-yeon did not go out because of constant training.

“Second, Namgoongyeon. Recite the six major functions of the battlefield.”

“The six major functions of the battlefield .

“Wrong. That’s a tactical consideration. Rahobin, the six major functions of the battlefield.”

“Command communications, firepower, combat service support, intelligence, maneuver, and protection.”

“This is the reason I raised Rahobin as the team leader. At least, it would be safest for a kid who knows the concept to lead the team. There is only one reason to bring up the team leader. It’s not about being the strongest, it’s about keeping your team safe and having someone who can best accomplish the mission. Nothing more, nothing less.”

Leaving behind Namgoongyeon, who looked almost crying, Keira looked at me.

“Base on what you have learned, plan a plan and come back. After that, the distribution of loot and peddling will be the responsibility of the team leader. Team leader Rahobin should come to the operation briefing at 18:00 this evening. More than.”

Where Keira left, only three of her teammates remain, looking at me with dissatisfied expressions.

Shall we start with the discipline of the team members first before planning a strategy?

“Now, as the operation team leader, I give orders. If you have any complaints, tell me in advance.”

The basics of governance begin with strengthening the enemy from within.
