[Magic Bullet]
Description: A unique skill given to those who pioneer their own destiny through magic guns in the evil city of the other world.
It is possible to fire a magic bullet whose trajectory changes at will.
In particular, the seventh magic bullet has the power to determine fate, ignoring cause and effect and unconditionally hitting the target.
Magic bullets contain the powers of inertia control, penetration enhancement, and orbital manipulation.
Additionally, it is possible to summon spirits related to ■■.
Until the moment of destruction, the magic bullet never misses.
There is only one person who can kill the archer who fires magic bullets, and that is his own fate.
“How is it? “Isn’t this a pretty good skill, sir?”
“Uhm… “
Eugene looked at Sia’s unique skill her, [Magic Bullet Marksman], And made a strange expression
“I think I was assigned this skill because I used the magic gun as my main weapon in games like Darkling or Nightfall.”
Saying that, Sia aimed the magic gun she was holding in the sky and pulled the trigger without hesitation.
Tang-!
The bullet that was being shot into the sky suddenly changed its trajectory like a living creature according to Sia’s will and exploded in the air.
“In this way, it is possible to control the trajectory of the magic bullet at will. Moreover, the more you fill it with magical energy and shoot it, the stronger its power will continue to be.”
Sia said that with an air of confidence.
It is no exaggeration to say that since she has a unique skill called [Magic Bullet Marksman], There is no target she cannot hit.
Even a sniper who can accurately hit a target a few hundred meters away can never change the trajectory of a bullet once fired, but the magic bullet fired by Sia is capable of shaking that absolute proposition to its core.
Not only that.
Depending on how Sia chooses, the magic bullets she fires can be simple bullets or cannons boasting enormous firepower.
In other words, she could be said to be an all-rounder who could engage in close-range combat and ultra-long-distance sniping at the same time!
‘If this is the case, the teacher will have no choice but to acknowledge me.’
For the first time since she became Eugene’s student, Sia smiled brightly at the thought that she could be of help to him.
But.
“Hmm… “
In fact, Eugene’s expression when he checked Sia’s unique skill her, [Magic Bullet Marksman], Was just a look of shock.
“I think it’s a very vague skill… And the performance doesn’t seem that good… “
“Yes?”
Sia made a bewildered expression at Eugene’s words
Because she thought that Eugene would definitely know how great the effect of [Magic Bullet] Is.
Could it be that Eugene doesn’t know what it means to fire a magical bullet that is sure to hit the opponent, changing its trajectory according to the will of the shooter?
“That’s exactly the problem. The unique skill you have, [Magic Bullet Marksman], At first glance seems to have a very deceptive effect… “
Clap-
Eugene stood at Sia, took her her magic gun, and pointed it in front of her.
And-
Kwaang-!
The moment Eugene pulled the trigger of the magic gun, a tremendous roar came out from the barrel of her gun and immediately blew away everything in front of her.
In particular, the spot where the bullet passed was so powerful that the ground nearby was dented along its trajectory!
“…”
Meanwhile, Sia, who witnessed the scene, was at a loss for words.
I really had no idea what I had to do to create this kind of power with just one magic bullet.
“The biggest problem is that you can imitate most of the effects of [Magic Bullet Marksmanship] With just your intention.”
And Eugene said that with a very calm expression.
It was like that.
Controlling the trajectory of a bullet with one’s will or amplifying its power by injecting magical energy were all things that could be similarly imitated using intention.
In fact, even Eugene, who touched a gun for the first time in his life, can produce this kind of power just by shooting a bullet with intention.
“If you’re planning on massacring civilians in ranked battles, it’s not a bad ability. However, this ability will never work on someone with the same or higher skills than you.”
Eugene spoke in a passing tone.
“This is especially true if your opponent is a master who knows how to expand his realm of thoughts like Cheonhwa. Isn’t that right?”
“…”
Sia doesn’t respond to Eugene’s words.
All he did was bite his lower lip and look at Eugene.
“Then… If I were to receive your teachings… “Can I beat Cheonhwa?”
“No, never.”
To Sia’s seemingly hopeful question, Eugene gives a clear answer.
“Even if there were 10 of you now, you would never be able to defeat Cheonhwa. “That woman has a different level of skill than you.”
Because while the current Xia has difficulty generating thoughts, Cheonhwa was a strong person who could develop her thoughts in her area.
The realm of thoughts is the highest level to which those who can recognize and deal with thoughts can advance.
If Cheon-hwa develops her realm of thought properly, there is a possibility that she will be defeated by Yu-jin, and if she is Xia, how terrible will she be?
“As expected, is that so… “
And as if she had expected Eugene’s answer, Sia’s shoulders slumped.
However, Eugene’s answer was not yet completely finished.
“Even if you can’t win, there is a way to avoid losing.”
“… Yes?”
Eugene shrugged her shoulders and answered.
“If you can imitate what I teach you, even if Cheonhwa develops the realm of thought, he won’t be able to defeat you easily?”
Eugene’s answer was neither bravado nor anything else, but the truth itself.
Because the technique he was going to teach Shia from now on, Spirit Unity, had that much power.
‘If Lumina finds out about this, she might kill me.’
Spirit Hapshin was a unique technique developed and used by Lumina herself.
Although Eugene was not good at spirit magic and could not learn spirit hapshin, he clearly remembered the principles and methods of performing the technique as he had been a colleague for 20 years.
Through her spirit union with her, Lumina was able to exert enough power to hold back the Demon King for nearly an hour on her own.
Of course, since this is not reality but a world in a virtual reality game, it would be impossible to recreate the full power of the Spirit Hapshin.
But half of its original power… No, even if you can only show half of it, it is enough.
I could guarantee it.
Even with only Cheonhwa, he cannot defeat Xia, who has mastered the Spirit-Hapshin technique. Never.
To be more precise, I would say that it is not that Shia is outstanding, but that the technique of spirit union is that great.
‘Lumina was an excellent archer and a spiritualist at the same time. And she said, ‘
She can learn the spirit combination because she is herself.
And isn’t Sia also a marksman who uses a magic bullet gun, and at the same time, she carries around a mysterious spirit whose identity is unknown?
No matter how you look at it, Shia is a minor copy of Lumina, but it can be said that she has met the basic conditions to learn her spirit hapshin her her her her.
‘Well, actually, she needs to learn the fighting techniques unique to the elves to gain proper power… It would be okay if I didn’t teach you that far.’
Still, wouldn’t it be a bit too much to teach Sia a martial art that only elves can learn?
Eugene smiles proudly at the thought that she is a great person who knows how to respect the cultures of different tribes.
“Please teach me! I want to learn that skill called Spirit Hapshin!”
Sia, who had been wearing a gloomy expression, said that with a very motivated expression.
And Eugene looks at Sia and shrugs his shoulders.
“Oh, by the way, in order for you to learn this, you need to have some basics. Well, the basics aren’t that big of a deal.”
And Sia, without knowing it, felt ominous at Eugene’s remark of her.
“… Basics? What is it? Is it difficult to learn?”
“No, it’s really easy. I mean, roughly… “
Eugene pointed the magic gun in his hand at the wall and pulled the trigger.
Bang, bang, bang!
Bullets fired at the wall soon ricochet and bounce into the air like billiard balls.
It’s none other than Sia, who was watching Eugene’s shooting from afar!
“… !”
It happened so quickly that Sia was just looking at the bullet flying towards her.
This time, Eugene fired a bullet into the air.
Tadadadang-!
“… !”
The sound of metal colliding with metal resonates, and then something falls from the air.
It was none other than the bullets Eugene had fired in the first shot.
It was truly absurd that Eugene had ricocheted with just one bullet, hitting all the bullets flying towards Sia!
“… It makes no sense.”
And when Sia saw Eugene’s ridiculous shooting, she muttered that without even realizing it.
Is it possible for a human being to do the same thing as before with just pure shooting skills, without using any skill or intention?
Moreover, Eugene said he tried carrying a gun for the first time today?
How? And by what means?
I don’t think even a national shooting athlete would be able to do something like that, right?
Eugene shrugs his shoulders once again, probably not noticing that Sia is so shocked that her mouth is wide open.
“Roughly speaking, knowing how to do something like this is the basics. It’s very easy, right?”
