White Online-Novel

Isaac entered the Merchant Store once again.

Kulos glanced towards the door and again saw the familiar handsome young man walking towards him, or more precise term would be beautiful.

''You again,'' Kulos said with boredom.

Isaac nodded and put 5 Adult Wild Boar Furs and 3 Adult Wild Boar Meat on the desk.

Kulos looked at the items and said nonchalantly, ''70 White Coins.''

Isaac nodded and took the Coins.

''I have one more item,'' Isaac said and put the Adult Wild Boar Meat (Common) on the desk.

Kulos was slightly surprised, ''How did you manage to get this?''

Isaac smiled but didn't answer.

''50 White Coins,'' Kulos said.

Isaac nodded and took the Coins.

He received in total 120 White Coins, and previously he had 35.

Now he has 155, enough to buy a Flintlock pistol.

Isaac left the store and with light steps reached the weapon store.

It wasn't as crowded as before— players have found out that to get any of the items, they need to kill wild animals.

Isaac entered the store and grabbed the Flintlock pistol, and arrived at the desk where a female NPC was standing.

''Hello,'' Isaac said and put the Flintlock pistol on the desk.

''Good morning.'' The female NPC said with slight blush after seeing Isaac's face.

She thought at first that he was a girl, but after hearing his voice, she was surprised to find out that he was a boy!

''Flintlock pistol, it will cost 150 White Coins.'' The Female NPC said with a smile.

Isaac nodded and put exactly 150 White Coins on the desk.

''Thanks for doing business with us.'' The Female NPC bowed.

Isaac grabbed the Flintlock, and a message appeared in front of him.

[You acquired Flintlock Pistol (Common) ]

[Flintlock Pistol: Damage: Reload 30 Seconds - 1 Shot Ammo Capacity - Flintlock Bullets Needed!]

''30 seconds...'' Isaac murmured— he took a glance towards his pouch, which was filled with tiny rocks, ''I guess I still need to use slingshot... I don't even have Flintlock Bullets...''

Isaac left the Weapon Store and went to Armory, which should have bullets.

He entered the store and approached the old man who was sitting on his chair.

''Excuse me?'' Isaac said.

''Yeah?'' The old man said grumpily.

''Do you have Flintlock Bullets?''

''Yes!'' The old man shouted, ''10 Flintlock Bullets costs 1 White Coin!''

Isaac nodded, ''I will buy 50 of them.''

The old man snorted and took a bag, and threw it towards Isaac.

Isaac caught it, and a text appeared in front of him.

[50 Flintlock Bullets Acquired!]

Isaac took his last remaining White Coins and gave them all for the Old man.

After that, he left the building.

He tied the ammo pouch to his waist, and now he had two pouches tied to his waist.

People in the streets are wondering why is he carrying a pouches on his waist, doesn't it hinder his movements? But, Isaac was not aware that he did something, which rest of the Marksman players find out after few weeks, tying the pouches to the waist.

Even though it sounds simple and practical, no one found out, because they treat this like a game and pulling rocks and bullets from Inventory seems faster in theory, but in fact, it isn't.

You need to reload the slingshot and Flintlock pistol, that takes some time after you take items from Inventory, because you need to stretch your arm to reach the inventory and then you need to do another big movement to reload the weapons, but taking them from pouches is slower than taking from Inventory, but it is faster to reload.

In the end, reloading using pouches in his waist is approximately one second faster.

But that second alone, is important.

It does hinder his movement, but Marksmen doesn't need good movement.

Isaac walked in the streets and saw a few benches nearby.

He sat down and finally relaxed.

For some reason, he was getting exhausted from walking and running nonstop for a few hours.

It was physical but also mental exhaustion.

''Interface...'' Isaac murmured, and a familiar blue-colored Interface appeared in front of him.

He had his slingshot and Flintlock Pistol on his inventory and only had the Swornword village on the map.

''Maybe I should go test the Flintlock pistol... Once I reach Level 5, I will log off for today.'' Isaac murmured.

He stood up and left the village once again.

The Guards have already stopped caring about him.

He ran past the players who were walking casually and reached the forest once again.

He entered deeper into the woods, ignoring the low-level places, and went straight to Level 5 and 6 spawn spots.

Isaac arrived at another spawn spot and saw one Adult Wild Boar.

[Adult Wild Boar]

[Level 6]

[HP: 45/45]

Isaac nodded and started carefully approaching the Adult Wild Boar.

This time he didn't plan to go hiding in the tree, and he isn't sure what is the range of the Flintlock pistol.

Isaac put one Flintlock bullet on the chamber.

''Whew.'' Isaac took a deep breath and closed his right eye.

The Adult Wild Boar was still minding his own business.

*BANG*

But then the bullet left the barrel and hit the Adult Wild Boar instantly.

''GRAAA!'' The Adult Wild Boar instantly turned his head towards Isaac.

The sound of the gun and the smoke leaving the gun's barrel is very noticeable.

[-39 HP]

Isaac smiled after seeing the damage— he quickly put his Flintlock pistol away and took his slingshot.

He took quickly a rock from this pouch and put it on the rubber band.

''GRAA!'' The Adult Wild Boar started stomping towards Isaac with scary momentum.

*SWISH*

But the rock already was flying in the air and hit the Adult Wild Boar on his forehead.

[-9 HP]

The Adult Wild Boar fell down on the ground and turned into pixels.

[You Killed Adult Wild Boar!]

[40 XP Earned!]

[Adult Wild Boar Meat (Common) Acquired!]

Isaac looked at the Flintlock Pistol and saw it showing how long it takes for it to be reloaded.

[Reloading in 5...]

[4...]

[3...]

[2...]

[1...]

[Reloading Is Ready!]

Isaac raised an eyebrow— he saw the Flintlock wasn't reloaded.

He took another Flintlock bullet and put it on the chamber, and now it was reloaded.

''I still need to reload myself... Will be tricky in combat...''

Isaac with his Flintlock pistol, started walking deeper into the woods.

Goal: Level 5.
