Genius Archer’s Streaming Season 1 Episode 148
51. Contractor Hunting (1)
“You… … No, we have to kill the contractor.”
These words were spoken by Raina with a serious expression.
-Hey, kill the contractor?
-Is that possible?
-This is worse than Emilia lol
-No lol how do you kill him?
-Can you see the mission cleared?
Viewers were outraged at the difficulty of clearing the story mode.
Although it was expressed as us, it was natural that Almond had to be killed.
It was difficult for Almond to deny that he was speechless for a moment.
‘Contractor… … ?’
contractor.
In fact, from a minion’s perspective, he is no different from a god.
Minions were people who did not greatly exceed the physical capabilities of humans, and contractors were people who used powers that did not fit the principles of the world.
Because it receives the protection of the Avatar, it is difficult to kill it easily even if you hit its vital points several times.
On the other hand, minions will be in a near-death state if they are even grazed by their attacks. That too is if you are lucky. Usually, they die instantly in the blink of an eye.
The difference between humans and soldier ants.
Raina was suggesting that the soldier ants kill humans.
“okay.”
Soldier Ant Almond nodded.
He said he would kill a human with his jaw.
Reina’s eyes widened, then closed like crescent moons and smiled brightly.
“Okay. Let’s do it.”
She held out her hand. She wants to shake hands.
-We were holding hands all along, so why are we shaking hands again? Lol
-Please “stop” dating… …
-“Please stop.”
-If you don’t hold hands, you’ll get a fatal disease?
Almond’s hand grabbed hers.
Then Reina says.
“I am Reina Lucien.”
Reina Lucien.
Maybe Lucien is an adult.
Accordingly, Almond also has to say his last name. Of course, Almond had no last name.
“me… … Is… … “I don’t remember.”
“I see.”
Reina didn’t really care. Not having memories was common in this world.
“I’ll make another map tomorrow and give it to you. I’ll see you back here.”
“But—”
“?”
“How did you draw this map? You said… … .”
The words “You only have a few days worth of memories” couldn’t come out of my mouth.
“ah. “I didn’t draw all of this.”
“what?”
“I picked up almost everything that was drawn and finished it.”
Pick it up? Something like that?
Almond flipped the map over, thinking it was strange.
There was small, strange cursive writing on the back.
‘Ah, no, is it…? Hmm…?’
It looked like an alphabet, but it was so messy and torn by bad writing that it was hard to tell what it meant.
He decided to just accept it as a convenient development of the game.
So the two came out of the bushes again and cleared the battlefield.
[Time passes.]
The scene quickly moved on to the next day.
Tiring.
[Reina’s Map]
Raina’s map was created, and a mini-map was created in the right corner. Just like when playing Lille Siege multiplayer.
In front of me was Reina.
“Listen carefully to what I say. If you fail even once, it’s over.”
Raina started explaining by pointing somewhere on the map.
“This is where we are now.”
She continued to explain passionately. How to get away without being caught, where to get the weapon back, and… … .
“The contractor is… … .”
How to kill a contractor.
“Here it is.”
Her index finger was trembling as she pointed at the map. She seems to get nervous just by pointing.

“You have to listen really carefully from here on.”
* * *
After the explanation.
The operation was carried out.
Almond, Raina, and several minions summoned by Raina gathered in one place on a dark night.
Mort, Holly, Jay, etc… … .
These children were commonly referred to as the Reina Squad.
Plus Tom, Theo, Julia… … Even the guys who changed from the red team to the blue team yesterday were gathered there.
They had no memory, but rather, they had no vague fear of the contractor.
It was easy to convince them that they needed to get out of here.
They are all already active in escaping.
“Just follow me. Don’t forget to be quiet.”
“okay.”
“Do you all remember how I explained the operation?”
“Yeah. I’ve said it over and over again.”
Almond, I only heard it twice, but these minions seem to have heard it over and over again.
“Yes. There is a much better world out there.”
A much better world… … .
Maybe that wasn’t the case, but Almond said nothing.
No, I couldn’t.
I couldn’t bear to say something like that, that there might be hell out there rather than here.
“Really? Almonds?”
One of the minion grabbed him by the collar and asked.
There was a guy named ‘Mot’ who was particularly fond of almonds. He only used bows as weapons.
“huh. of course.”
I answered with a smile, and he laughed along with me.
“Okay then, let’s go.”
* * *
Dark night.
I couldn’t see even an inch ahead.
The moon happened to be a crescent moon. Although there are three moons here, none of them are bright enough to illuminate the sky.
“Can’t you see anything like this?”
A soldier guarding the armory yawns and says. I’m already sleepy, but the warmth of the torch next to me and the crackling sound tickle my ears, making me drowsy.
“Let’s take a nap.”
“Big… … .”
When the junior soldier says that, he pretends to be helpless and leans back against the wall for a moment.
“Is that so?”
It was cumbersome to lean on with the bow tied, so I set it aside and closed my eyes.
That was wrong.
Because of his actions just now, he became Almond’s first target.
Ssssssss.
The bushes directly below shook, but the junior soldier standing next to him did not notice because he was counting the constellations in the sky.
Another reason was that the minion was so small.
Sling.
Almond pulled out the small dagger of the senior soldier who was lying down.
“uh… … ?”
A senior soldier who opened his eyes to the sparkling moonlight. His vision instantly turned upside down.
Phew!
In a world turned upside down, red rain was falling and a boy’s crotch could be seen looking down at him.
Thud… thud… .
He realized that the red rain was blood spurting from his neck and screamed.
“… … ! … … !”
It’s just empty air blowing into your vocal cords. Only the sound of the wind leaked out miserably.
His screams came out of the mouths of his successor soldiers instead.
“What… … Ugh!”
Phew!
Almond’s dagger pierced his gaping jaw.
The dagger shattered his lower jaw, pierced his tongue, and pierced the roof of his mouth.
“Ugh… … ! Huuuuu… … !”
The soldier gasped and took a step back. He slashed his sword at Almond, his eyes wide with anger and pain.
Almond raised his dagger diagonally. The sword blade flowed smoothly.
Kagaga River… … !
Although it was shed, the sword trembled due to the difference in strength. The soldier raises his sword again, confident of his victory.
“Zeuugh…” … !”
Kang! Kang!
The more the sword attack is repeated, the more disadvantaged the almonds are.
At that time, Almond kicked the senior soldier’s longsword between his crotches.
Talk.
The person who grabbed the longsword that went between the crotch was Raina, who jumped out from the bushes behind her.
“Ugh… … ?!”
The moment the junior soldier’s neck turns back as he notices her presence.
Raina’s blue eyes drooped to the left.
Golden hair fluttered, and dazzling moonlight came out of the scabbard in an instant.
The sword strike with added rotational force cut off the upper body of the junior soldier.
Saaagh——!
Even though the Minion’s strength was weak, the rotational force was added and the opponent’s body was cut off with precision.
The upper body slowly slides, crashing. A puddle of blood was created and the bush was soaked red.
-Wow, this is a true story about the two of you as a team?
-#1 Team Play Desired by College Students According to Forbes
-Group project request
-Wow that’s cool ㅠㅠ
-Almond knife is also good
-Raina is really cool
-Raina, I just want to watch this scene againㅠㅠ
Not only the viewers but also the minions were surprised by the two’s perfectly coordinated play.
“omg.”
“Oh, this can’t be right.”
“eww… … uh?”
The minions covered each other’s mouths and looked at the corpses of the two soldiers who had died in an instant.
Phew… … .
Both Raina and Almond just let out a small breath. There were no special reviews.
Reina raised her longsword high and struck the lock.
bang!!
In a blow imbued with blue mana, the lock on the armory was broken.
“Here. Pick up the weapons one by one.”
* * *
Reina and Almond filled their quivers with arrows. They also carried a dagger and a longsword. They knew they would run out of arrows eventually.
‘I wish that situation wouldn’t come to this, but… … .’
Both Reina and Almond didn’t want to assume such a situation, but it wasn’t a matter of dislike or dislike.
Almond tried to collect even the smallest shurikens.
Reina checked them one by one.
First, the most important thing.
“What about a trap crossbow?”
“I packed it.”
The minions answered in unison.
“Okay. Then shuriken?”
“I packed it.”
After checking only the most important items for the operation.
Raina left the warehouse.
“You shouldn’t take too long. No matter how incompetent the soldiers are, they are still following basic patrol rules.”
Raina even knows the patrol course of the soldiers. He hadn’t prepared much in the meantime.
Reina spread out the map and pointed out where and from where. Then she looked at the stars and moon in the sky to estimate the time.
“As of now, this area is under patrol. This is the area with the fewest people.”
She speaks as her fingers flick across the map.
Almond didn’t understand it right away, but fortunately her route was displayed on the minimap.
“let’s go.”
Reina, Almond, and the minions closed the armory again and set off.
* * *
How much time has passed?
Almond felt like he had moved for 30 minutes in real time.
Moving around for about 30 minutes isn’t a big deal, but the sense of urgency that it’s over if you get caught and the constant running around hiding here and there drains more stamina than I thought.
‘It’s getting a bit difficult.’
It was around this time that I was thinking like this.
After avoiding numerous patrol routes and crawling, running, and climbing tree branches for quite some time, we arrived at this place.
‘Is that it?’
In the distance, although it’s hard to see, you can see two large torches. It’s like a door… … .
-Wow, is that it?
-Ohhh, there’s a door!
-Minions, please cheer up ㅠㅠ
gulp.
Almond swallowed dryly and waited for Reina’s next instructions.
“There are contractors outside the door. There is always at least one person guarding the gate of the battlefield.”
As expected, it was not the soldiers but the contractors who guarded the most important places.
“Re, Raina… … “Are we really going to be together?”
“If you, if you go back now… … .”
“Huh… … Huh. “I’m having a hard time.”
The little minions were struggling.
“Shut up, you little brats. Reina did this for you.”
Mort came forward and scolded them.
“Let’s hold on just a little longer.”
The slightly mature looking minion ‘Holly’ also comforted the struggling children by massaging their shoulders.
Reina stared at them quietly, then turned her gaze to Almond.
“almond.”
“?”
“… … “I’ve never been there since.”
Reina grabbed Almond’s hand.
“It could be the last time.”
Her blue eyes sparkled more than usual.
Like the calm sea of a resort.
“So I want to tell you now.”
The sea is getting closer and closer. If you fall into that deep sea, you may not be able to swim out, but no one can refuse you.
Everyone would like to know what’s underneath that glitter.
“I will not forget.”
Raina’s lips covered Almond’s lips.
A sound echoed in his head. Almond didn’t know what it was at the moment.
The thick, moist, and warm touch stopped his thoughts for a moment.
If her eyes were the blue sea, her lips were like the warm sun.
But the promise it spits out… … .
“Even if my memories disappear, I won’t forget.”
It was a contradictory, unkeepable promise from the very beginning.
Almond wanted to give Reina an answer.
“Oh my. You’re so shameless. If you’re going to do it, why don’t you do it with your body?”
A white flash passed by behind me.
──Quaaaaaaa!
In an instant, my entire vision burned white.
Screams echoed from all over.
Bleep──
The tinnitus that filled my eardrums drowned out even the screams.
My whole body felt as if it was burning hot.
Almond rolled his body to an unknown location.
Bleep… …
The tinnitus lessened and my vision gradually began to clear.
“Ah, almonds… … .”
The first thing he saw was the head of the minion ‘Mot’, pierced by a giant arrow.
“Yu… Ria… … Run… away… … .”
