The Genius Archer’s Streaming Season 2 Episode 44
16. The Hunt (1)
“What are you talking about, Juhyeok? There are twelve of them?”
“That’s why we need twelve arrows.”
Their opinions remained irreconcilably apart.
This was due to a lack of information.
About Almond’s archery skills.
-He’s shooting 12 people with 12 arrows, what’s the problem? lol
-Info) Almond has landed one-shot double kills in battle raids before
-Savage NPCs panicking like dogs lol
Even if the viewers didn’t know, the NPCs naturally couldn’t accept it.
They shouldn’t accept it.
Fundamentally, NPCs are programmed to reject plans that don’t make sense. Especially the Class Representative’s group—they’re sharp. They think and judge rationally.
So when I proposed that just three of us charge in with twelve arrows to take down twelve enemies, they naturally refused.
But then….
“Wait.”
The Class Representative paused the argument briefly.
The Class Representative had seen Almond’s archery skills before.
Just one shot, but it felt like witnessing the very essence of archery itself.
From gripping the bow to drawing and releasing—every movement in the sequence was nearly perfect.
Of course, that alone wasn’t enough to justify the proposal of handling twelve people with twelve arrows.
But the Class Representative made this judgment.
“…Let’s try it.”
“What?”
“Are you insane?!”
The other children naturally objected.
But those who had also witnessed Almond’s archery skills alongside the Class Representative spoke up.
“…I think the Class Representative is right. We’re starving. We have to do something.”
“We saw him shoot. He might be able to do it. Even if he can’t, he’ll handle most of them.”
Two of them stepped forward to support Almond alongside the Class Representative.
“We’ll go with Juhyeok. You guys just make arrows here.”
They even volunteered for the dangerous task.
With Baek Jun-su collapsed, now was the opportunity. If we missed this moment, we’d either starve to death or be attacked and killed.
“If you’re all saying that much….”
Faced with their willingness to bear the risk themselves, the other children couldn’t easily object anymore.
In the end, my proposal was accepted.
“Alright. Let’s gather three arrows right now.”
We gathered all the arrows we had, and the remaining children began crafting more.
* * *
Almond, the Class Representative, and two of his associates.
The four of us formed a strike team and headed toward the annex building.
“But we only have three arrows… what’s the plan?”
As we moved quietly toward the annex, the Class Representative asked Almond.
“We need to neutralize a few people first. It’ll make things easier later.”
That was Almond’s answer.
‘The game isn’t over yet.’
Even though Baek Jun-su had been neutralized, I couldn’t let my guard down. Sohee Yun was also a threat to be reckoned with.
If she thought strategically for even a moment, we could lose embarrassingly.
“But how are we getting in? There are way too many zombies.”
Zombies swarmed around the entrance to the annex.
They were also crowding toward the window I’d shattered with an arrow, each trying to climb through.
Entry through normal routes was impossible.
“Here.”
I pointed to the curtain rope leading up to the 2nd floor of the annex.
* * *
We all climbed the rope to the 2nd floor without difficulty.
“…W-what is this?”
The Class Representative was taken aback by the scene spread across the 2nd floor.
The curtains were covered in claw marks, and blood was splattered everywhere.
And scattered across the floor lay the corpse of a mutant zombie with pale white skin.
Its throat torn out looked gruesome yet oddly reassuring. This creature wouldn’t be moving anymore.
“W-what in the world was here?”
He asked in a trembling voice.
Even accounting for the zombie era, such an extreme scene was rare to witness.
“There was something a bit unusual.”
I casually explained while scratching my ear as if it were nothing.
-Something unusual: The boss
Hahaha, caught the boss and picking his ears hahaha
-???: Not your concern~
-Come on, NPCs dismissed!
These guys would’ve literally passed out if they saw that lol
I left Class 1-8 without offering any further explanation.
In front of the stairs leading to the 1st floor, I casually mentioned:
“The 1st floor is Baek Jun-su’s territory. From here on, you’ll need to draw them out from the front.”
Suddenly lol
You should’ve told me this beforehand, seriously lol
-Oh right. You’re the bait ^^
“…L-lure them?”
The Class Representative and his friends stared blankly at each other.
“There’s no other way for the four of us to handle all of them.”
“…W-wait. So you’re saying we lure them in and just charge at them so you can shoot?”
“Yeah.”
Just die already lol
Hahahahahaha
lol lol lol lol lol
“Class Representative draws them in, and the other two cover my rear.”
The Class Representative looked at Almond like he was insane.
“…W-what’s the probability you accidentally hit me?”
“Zero.”
Overflowing confidence? That phrase couldn’t quite capture it accurately.
Just as no one says they’re confident in breathing, Almond’s tone was exactly the same.
As if questioning why such a thing would even exist, he answered with complete ease that it simply wasn’t possible.
The Class Representative was convinced by such absolute certainty.
“…Sigh. If that’s the only way.”
He nodded. The other two also nodded with resolute expressions.
Why are you doing everything for me? Haha
Do it all while making that ticking sound, haha.
-This Class Representative does it for free!
“In exchange, you won’t have blood on your hands. Only three of us will be doing the work.”
“Got it.”
* * *
Meanwhile, the sentries guarding the central corridor connecting the infirmary and the convenience store heard a loud noise.
Their ears picked up the commotion.
Crash!
A chair had tumbled to the ground from somewhere.
It was loud enough to startle someone sitting idly and make them jump to their feet.
“…What the hell!”
Since Baek Jun-su had just been hit by arrows not long ago, these thugs were on high alert.
“Who is it! Come out!”
“Damn it…!”
Curses spilled out immediately—a clear sign of their tension. Their boss had lost an eye so pathetically, after all. Fear was only natural.
“Over here! You bastards!”
The Class Representative shouted from the end of the 1st floor corridor.
Holding a well-sharpened spear, he began charging forward as if he were truly about to attack.
“I’m going to collect every penny you’ve owed me for bread!”
-What is he saying
-Just random nonsense lol
-He’s just trying to provoke them with bullshit lol
-Bread debt collector lol
-Class Rep’s acting skills are insane
Baek Jun-su’s gang muttered in confusion.
“W-what… When did we ever eat your bread?”
“That’s the Class Representative, isn’t it?”
They recognized his face.
It was famous that Baek Jun-su had killed a couple of the Class Representative’s group.
So even if the Class Representative charged at them crazed and stabbed someone with his spear, there would be nothing strange about it.
“C-crazy! Kill him!”
“Welcome! You four-eyed bastard!”
The sentries shouted and three of them rushed out simultaneously.
When they had advanced to about the middle of the corridor.
The Class Representative stopped running immediately.
As if he were frightened.
“T-three of you coming at once is too much! Come one at a time!”
“Stop spouting nonsense! Stay right there!”
One of the sentries, quite burly, shouted.
If it had ended with just shouting, the Class Representative would have had no problem escaping again.
-Hurry up
-Run away
-Huh?
Whoosh!
The thug threw his spear without hesitation when the Class Representative showed no sign of charging forward.
“!”
The Class Representative was caught off guard.
“Uh….”
This wasn’t supposed to happen.
I’d been cocky under the assumption that the enemies had no ranged weapons.
Now that I thought about it, a thrown spear could certainly serve as a ranged weapon.
Hadn’t I seen it in historical documentaries? How primitive people hunted when they didn’t have bows.
The shadow of the long spear fell across the dim fluorescent light.
And something flew toward it, snatching it out of the air.
──Clang!
“!?”
An arrow.
The arrow had intercepted the spear mid-air.
Not just the enemies, but even the Class Representative stood frozen in shock.
“Hiii…iek!?”
lol the reaction is hilarious
-reaction king
That class president is cute lol
Anyone witnessing such a sight would have reacted exactly like the Class Representative.
The one who’d thrown the spear stood frozen in disbelief.
“Just now… was that an arrow?”
The answer was embedded in his forehead.
──Thunk!
“?”
“Hey, hey! Your forehead!”
Thud.
He collapsed without uttering another word.
As his massive frame fell limply, the others lost all will to fight.
“Wow, wow….”
The Class Representative let out a quiet gasp from where I’d first stopped.
Whoosh!
Almond’s arrow tore through the air once more.
Thunk!
Another enemy fell.
The problem was that I’d run out of arrows.
One shot to intercept the spear. One shot to drop the big one. And one more shot after that.
But there had been three enemies.
The last one turned and immediately started screaming an emergency alert.
“I, I’m crazy. E, everyone come out! Emergency! Emergency!”
There was no way to stop him as he turned and sprinted toward the infirmary door.
At least, the Class Representative couldn’t see one.
Whoosh!
Someone rushed past the Class Representative’s side.
It was Almond.
“Wait, Juhyeok Kim? What are you doing coming out?!”
Archers are always positioned in the rear—that’s the fundamental rule. Especially after he’d insisted on doing exactly that.
Almond sprinted ahead of the Class Representative.
He slid into a kneeling position and snatched the arrow that had fallen to the floor.
Twang…!
As if it were a single motion, the arrow was already nocked on the bowstring.
The Class Representative’s eyes widened as he saw the silhouette of him releasing the string.
Boom!
“Bi, bisaa—”
—Thud!
Along with the artery at the back of his neck, his cry was cut short.
His figure staggered and collapsed forward.
“….”
For a moment—just a brief moment—silence hung in the corridor.
“…This, this can’t be.”
Thirty seconds?
No, in less than ten seconds, three of them had fallen.
“A… overwhelming… the enemies….”
The enemies didn’t even have time to do anything.
Not just the enemies, but the Class Representative and his two cronies as well.
Combat ability that defied all common sense.
Having witnessed it with their own eyes,
they were all overwhelmed.
-Baek Jun-su’s faction is doomed lol lol lol
-If he makes arrows now, they’re all really dead lol lol
-Baek Jun-su’s getting destroyed lol lol
All the viewers unanimously believed that Baek Jun-su’s downfall was imminent.
Of course it would be. Almond had already defeated a boss monster and accumulated experience to the point of nearly eliminating emotional fluctuations.
And he even had a bow.
The destruction of Baek Jun-su’s faction was inevitable.
But then a small event occurred.
A fanfare sounded out.
Pababam!
[Big Son has donated 1,000,000 won!]
[Came after hearing the rumors, but I’m already losing. Amazing, truly amazing!]
-Trembling trembling trembling trembling
-Big Son trembling
-A named user lol
-?!
-Wow
A seemingly famous viewer had made an appearance.
“…?”
Almond paused for a moment at the enormous donation amount that had appeared after so long.
His eyes turned toward the clock in the upper right corner.
It was displaying real-world time, not game time.
Since I’d started the broadcast late today, it was already time for bed.
“The timing works out perfectly. And you’ve given such a generous donation. I can’t just sit idle.”
-???
-Could it be…
-Reaction price skyrocketed 10 times lolololol
-A reaction??
-Oh…
“I’ll do a reaction.”
