Chapter 47

Sizzle!

“Hahaha.”

Most viewers knew.

That Hae-rang was a somewhat unique streamer.

But even his regular fans couldn’t help but be amazed at this moment.

-Our Gwanjong is laughing right now?

-What?

-Are you out of your mind? lololololol

-His flesh is burning and he’s laughing!

-Hahahahahahaha That’s so harsh, so harsh!

-If he’s going this far with the concept, we have to acknowledge it;;;;;

-So because it’s a thousand, you can just boldly move on? lol

-What on earth made our Gwanjong so excited?

-Maybe he’s laughing because he lost his mind?

-Her eyes are unnecessarily clear which makes it even more scary ㄷㄷㄷㄷㄷ

-For real, that’s going to haunt my dreams more than the branding iron scene.

-Anyway, he’s far from ordinary. Andromeda-level far.

-Isn’t this some kind of message to Gonau Soft?

-No way lololololol how can you even laugh at that scene lololol that’s a part where it’s hard enough just to hold back screams

-There are people who won’t play Assassin’s Creed series because they hate that stuff… but they’re just laughing and having fun lol

Though they were getting closer to Hae-rang, no viewers had yet seen through his true nature.

Attention and praise.

Those two things were enough to make Hae-rang dance through pain.

Even if this pain were identical to reality, Hae-rang would have endured it with a smile.

“It’s done now.”

Before long, a semicircular Assassin Mark was carved into Elogio’s hand.

Wario sent a hot, deep gaze toward Elogio.

“I formally welcome you, Elogio. Now you’ve become a true family member. We have a very important battle ahead of us.”

“Thank you. By important battle, you must mean the Templar Knights.”

“Exactly.”

“Where will we fight?”

“In the place where the beginning and end of all history come together.”

Wario, now completely healed, answered with a voice full of determination.

“Rome.”

* * *

The screen faded to black, and a group was introduced.

Elogio looked around and quietly admired.

“Magnificent.”

One hundred well-trained assassins.

At a glance, they seemed far beyond ordinary skill level.

Whinny!

Neigh!

The hundred horses they would ride were each pawing the ground.

“They all look like excellent breeds, Uncle.”

“Haha. Of course they are. The distance from here to Rome is over three hundred kilometers. I prepared them all as fine horses with real ability.”

“The prepared weapons are quite impressive too.”

Hae-rang held a bow in his hands, and a backpack was tied to the horse’s back.

The backpack was full of weapons specialized for ranged attacks.

“Yes, Elogio. If we encounter enemies during travel, we’ll have no choice but to fight. Since we’ll have to fight while mounted, ranged weapons are essential. Of course, the best thing would be to arrive safely without being detected.”

A group unknown to the outside world.

Securing funding must not have been easy either.

Preparing this many personnel and supplies clearly meant something.

A final chapter with everything at stake.

At its center was Elogio, controlled by Hae-rang.

“Won’t this many troops attract people’s attention?”

“Good point, Elogio. We’ll mainly travel using nighttime hours. The Templar Knights’ eyes are spread throughout the entire country, so we must be careful.”

Wario approached and lightly tapped his chest.

“Have you learned horsemanship? The Assassin Brotherhood’s movement speed is much faster than ordinary armies. If we encounter even one enemy, we’ll have to fight while riding at full speed.”

“No problem.”

Hae-rang answered calmly.

An answer that might seem aloof and insincere to some.

But Hae-rang was sincere.

As a child, he had been closer to horses than to family.

He had roamed not only ordinary plains but also the treacherous Heavenly Demon Great Mountain of the Heavenly Demon Cult with horses.

-Wow! Look at that confidence! No problem!

-But Brother Gwanjong, this is different from combat. It’s really similar to actual horsemanship, so you might fall off the horse!

-You know that rodeo machine at the arcade? It’s harder than that thing’s toughest difficulty.

-ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ An unexpected obstacle has arrived for our attention seeker

-Right, up until now it was all combat scenes so fighting talent was important, but this time it’s completely different

-Suddenly my palms are sweating;; This is actually a Quest that’s harder to get an S rank on than combat..

-The more I look at this, the more ridiculous this quest is ㅡㅡ Who learns horseback riding these days

-Perverted developers lol there should be limits to how realistic you make things

【Quest : Arrive at Rome without falling behind from the formation!】

“Depart!”

The Old Knight from the test shouts vigorously.

Then the Assassin Brotherhood members in the front group pulled hard on their reins.

Neigh!

The real beginning of the Quest.

Hae-rang, who was at the very back, also had his turn to depart approaching.

“Good. Good.”

Instead of straightening his posture, Hae-rang actually bent his waist.

Then he slowly stroked the inside of the horse’s neck.

The method he always used when setting out on long journeys in his previous life.

It was communion with the horse.

-Brother Gwanjong! First before departing…what, you’re already doing it?

-Who taught you first? Are you asking for increased affinity with the horse by doing this?

-We haven’t said anything yet…

-Hahahaha this is what a real prodigy and genius is like. They figure everything out on their own without needing to be taught!

-For real, I’m seriously doubting whether this is actually your first time. This is honestly close to being an easter egg.

-There’s a gamer who calms the horse first when he’s busy chasing? And he didn’t even know that would help?

-This is like heaven itself is helping lol

-This is really like a fluke, a lucky break lol. Still gotta wait and see though. It’s not like we’ve actually started yet.

-Alright, let’s go! Let’s see if this attention-seeking heavenly demon can ride horses too hahahahahahaha

“Depart!”

The Old Swordsman at the front sends a hand signal with a powerful shout.

Then about a hundred assassins pulled their reins in perfect unison while maintaining formation.

Neigh!

Hae-rang, who was at the very back, only moved his horse after all the assassins had departed.

-Ooh! That looks pretty good

-He’s so handsome that even just riding a horse looks like a scene from a movie lol

-The bow on his back suits him so well too lol I thought he was a black-haired elf

-But isn’t he riding better than expected? He’s never wobbled once?

-Yeah yeah, attention seeker, have you been learning horseback riding?

-There are plenty of streamers who fall off right after starting, so where did he learn to ride horses?

“One of my childhood daily routines was running across the grasslands with horses.”

Hae-rang’s answer was sufficient to satisfy the viewers.

-LOLOLOLOLOLOL here we go again

-Of course, every South Korean boy rides horses on grasslands, right

-Let’s see how far this ridiculous act goes lol

-Please stop acting with such a serious face!

While scanning the chat window with his eyes, Hae-rang focused on breathing with the horse.

Hae-rang was inwardly amazed.

Because the sensation of riding and running on a horse was so similar to reality.

Thanks to that, he could maintain formation without any sense of disconnect.

Rather, it was so easy that it was problematic.

“Do I just need to keep riding like this?”

-Yes. Why? Is it too easy?

-It does look easy. This ridiculously hard Quest lol

-For someone good at riding horses, it’s a honey Quest though

-Not only good at combat but also great at horseback riding ㄷㄷ Seems like someone born to do ‘Assassin’s Creed’

-That’s good. It’ll get hellish again when we reach Rome, so resting here isn’t bad

-Yeah yeah yeah yeah, since we’re at it, we should go all the way to the ending today. But don’t overdo it.

However, the viewers’ thoughts and the planner’s intentions seemed quite different.

Was it because he had achieved an average rating of ‘SSS’ even in Phase 2?

Or was it because this horsemanship Quest looked too easy?

Either way, the game created a special stage for Hae-rang.

Ding!

【Hidden Quest Activated: Survive the Templar Knights’ ambush!】

Thwack!

At the same time, a dull sound came from Hae-rang’s raised hand.

What Hae-rang was holding was none other than an arrow.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

Neigh!

“Aaaaah!”

The sound of arrows piercing flesh.

The screams of people and horses.

The Assassin Brotherhood’s subtle and agile advance instantly became chaos.

-What? Is it an ambush?

-Hidden Quest? Shit, looks like it’s starting again

-Originally it was already a challenging Quest just to follow along ㅋㅋ but now they’re adding ambushes on top of it

-Hurry up and run away Gwanjong brother! Speed up!

-Whoa.. I was wondering what I was holding in my hand and it’s an arrow? ㄷㄷㄷㄷㄷㄷ

-Did you just catch a flying arrow with your hand?ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Damn, caught the thing that flew at me right when the quest started

The Old Knight at the front quickly gave orders.

“It’s a trap! We’re getting out of here! All members, ride at full speed to the camp!”

The Assassin Brotherhood suddenly advancing at maximum speed.

Naturally, the difficulty of riding horses also skyrocketed.

Hae-rang’s horse gradually fell behind the group.

-Ah! Can’t keep up!

-You made this into a Quest?ㅡㅡ How is a regular person supposed to keep up with that speed? It’s not like they’re elite athletes

-Even if it’s a hidden quest, this is too much ㅠㅠ How are we supposed to clear this????

-What happens now? If you fail the Hidden Quest, does it connect to the regular Quest?

-Well, we can consider the SSS rating finished now

Everyone thought so.

That Hae-rang couldn’t match the group’s speed.

But they were wrong.

Hae-rang had ‘deliberately’ slowed down his horse.

Because he thought of a better method than running away from the enemies.

Swoosh!

In a split second.

Hae-rang’s body rose into the sky.

Viewers each clutched their heads.

Jumping from a running horse was tantamount to suicide.

Thud!

But Hae-rang made their worries unfounded.

After leaping once in midair, he landed back on the horse he was still riding.

However, his body was now facing the opposite direction.

The Templar Knights pursuing them.

Hae-rang aimed the bow he carried on his shoulder toward them.

Whoosh!

Thunk! Thunk! Thunk!

One Shot One Kill.

As soon as Hae-rang fired arrows, the pursuers fell from their horses one after another.

This noticeably slowed down the enemies’ pursuit speed.

“What’s happening!”

“Be careful! There’s someone shooting arrows!”

“The Assassin Brotherhood has someone this skilled?”

It wasn’t just the attackers who were surprised.

The fingertips of viewers tapping their keyboards trembled finely.

-Holy shit what kind of ghostly skill is that ㄷㄷㄷㄷㄷㄷ

-Changing position on horseback and shooting arrows?

-It’s hard to hit even when standing still, but on horseback ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-No, arrows aside, what can you even see? It’s so dark you can’t see anything???

-Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah, it’s hitting the mark every time right now.

-Even if you can’t see well, you can hear the screaming when you shoot arrows lol

-Now I realize it was a really rude question. The question ‘Do you know how to ride horses?’

-For real, how ridiculous must I have seemed to an attention seeker? Reflecting on it ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ

Whoosh!

Crash!

Even as viewers’ praise poured in, Hae-rang’s aim was chillingly accurate.

Hae-rang’s movements, which had been hitting enemies as if possessed, suddenly stopped.

“I’m out.”

All the provided arrows had run out.

But the number of pursuers still seemed to exceed a hundred.

Hae-rang tensed his legs and bent his waist to the side.

Hae-rang reached toward his backpack and grabbed several items inside.

Then next…

Whoosh!

He flew toward the sky.

It wasn’t like before when he briefly jumped to change position.

Hae-rang leaped to an incredible height as if embracing the full moon, and swung one arm in a semicircle.

Swish swish swish!

Neigh!

“Gah!”

The Flying Blades launched from his fingertips brought down several attackers at once.

Using his swung arm as propulsion, Hae-rang spun once in midair.

Tonight’s full moon seemed to guide his movements.

Whinny!

As soon as that graceful movement ended, Hae-rang drew his Treasured Sword.
