Manuke FPS Chapter 30

I was heading west from the camp on foot . There weren’t any roads, leaving us to walk through the woods to our destination . Since I didn’t know where exactly our destination was, I simply followed the two women of my party .

“So, Schwarz, what can you do, nya~?”

Mitche asked me . Her long red-and-brown striped tail flicking side to side .

“What can I do huh? As mentioned before we left, I’m a Manuke . I basically can’t use magic or magical items . But…”

“Manuke, nya! Its the first time I’ve ever met a Manuke, nya! but you’re a D-rank, right, nya? What did you do to get that rank?”

“I have many different skills that don’t need magic . That’s why I was able to get my rank . ”

“So, what can you do with these skills, nya?”

“Mitch, don’t talk about the subject . The mission requires us not to disclose his skills . That also means we shouldn’t inquire too much into it . ”

Frau said while eyeing me suspiciously . She walked beside Mitche, wearing a magician robe and carrying a long wooden staff . [1] It seemed like Frau had a lot on her mind, but didn’t probe because of the mission requirements .

“I also have questions . The Sasanqua you mentioned earlier, what is it?”

“It’s our clan . ”

“Sasanqua is a female-only clan, nya~ . It’s a mid-level clan based in the Royal Capital, nya~ . ”

‘Clan’ here most likely similar to my world . A gather of like-minded people and comrades . I also belonged to one in FPS called “P0wDer” . That’s why I picked it as my family name in this world .

“So a clan name, I see . Do many Adventurers join clans?”

“Beginners can’t join clans, nya . To be recognized as a member, you have to be at least D-rank, nya . But I’ve never heard of a Manuke being allowed in a clan, nya . ”

Being a part of a clan had many benefits . For missions too difficult for solo-ers, you could form a team with other clan members . Thus, lowering the Difficulty level . Making a party with non-clan members also had the same perks . Also, missions requiring a large-scale party, such as a raid, it’d help lower it as well . But in those cases, the reward is still split among the participants . So the larger the party, the fewer rewards each individual got .

In the case of a Clan, the reward would be considered community property, and your payment secured . This was one thing a non-clan team couldn’t provide .

Furthermore, there still the fact that the Sasanqua clan was female-only . I wasn’t aware of what kind of social positions women in this world had compared to mine . Just thinking about it though, they’d have to not only pay attention to the mission – they’d also have to be wary of their male counterparts . So it was a better option to join a female-only clan .

While on the topic of clans, the entrance to the Labyrinth gradually came into view . It was similar to Wolf Fang, with a wide hole unnaturally in the middle of nature, an eerie draft coming from the darkness .

“Here we are, nya . Schwarz, you take the lead from here, nya . We’ll return to camp in 4 hours so start exploring, nya . ”

“Understood, let’s go in . ”

I pulled the P90 off my back to my front then mounted both the tactical light and silencer from my waist pouch . I also mounted the 5 . 7’s silencer and pulled down my head goggles . Thus, I was ready .

“What, ny?! What’s growing out of your helm, ny?! And what’s with that short stick, ny?! What can it do without magic, nya?!”

…

Ms . Cat brimmed with curiosity, her tail flicking wildly with sparkling eyes… Staring at my submachine gun… I could only reply “it’s a secret . ” and move on .

Inside the Emerald Demon’s Labyrinth, it was quite different from Wolf Fang . While Wolf Fang felt like a dirt tunnel, this place felt like an underground passage with stone bricks . The passage was 6m’s wide but was only 3m high . With stone arches and paving, it felt more like a European dungeon rather than a place were monsters and hostile races lurked .

However, due to the confined spaces, it was a difficult place for melee fighters with swords and longer weapons . Even the White light from coming from the white flowers, the passage was dark . I turned on my rarely used tactical light, which was a mini-weapon mounted flashlight and switched to my NV Mode . [2]

” ~~~,~~~~, light . ”

It sounded like Frau . I turned around and floating before her staff was a ball of light . As expected, I couldn’t understand the magic-charged words while she chanted since I was a Manuke . I thought Mitch would make a fuss about my light, but as expected of a B-Rank . Her expression changed the moment we entered . She was calming surveying the surroundings… Ah, no . Her tail was still flicking wildly .

“First, let’s head towards places that haven’t been explored yet . It’s a waste of time to survey what’s been mapped . ”

“Understood, nya . ”

They simply said and followed behind a few meters . Varold had given me a small version of the incomplete map that I checked while walking . Using my HUD to identify the differences between the map and the actual passage, I headed towards the unmapped parts . I also made sure to spread the White Light seeds around as I walked .

“There are 3 just beyond the left turn ahead . ”

“There are 3 just beyond the left turn ahead . ”

“You know, nya?”

“Mitche, did you catch that?”

“Haven’t smelled anything yet, nya . ”

“Their footsteps are light . I think they’re just ordinary goblins . ”

My earpads caught their low voices perfectly . I gently switched the P90’s selector from safe to full auto . Quickly leaned on the left corner and peeked out . As I thought, they were goblins – same look as the ones I met before . There weren’t any other dots on the map .

“3 Goblins confirmed . Attack?”

“Eh, Schwarz, what are you doing from over there . nya?”

“Once they see my light, they’ll come . Attack them . ”

There were almost no light sources in the passageway . My tactical light and Frau’s orb were pretty eye-catching . The moment they spot our light, they’ll rush us . Before that, we could strike first from this distance

Mitch didn’t reply, only smacking her tail against my legs .

The goblins came into my crosshairs . Their ugly faces zoomed closer with the long-range function . Seeing my light, they shouted something . Not caring what they said, I squeezed the trigger and fired at them . 3 shots in each one . I was in good form today, firing 3 neat consecutive shots . Smoothly gliding the crosshairs left to right, leaving holes in each of the goblins’ heads .

“Three down, let’s move on . ”

Glancing at Mitche and Frau for…

“what’s that, nya —–!”

And I didn’t .
