I Became the Academy’s Kibitz Villain

Chapter 267: Public Enemy (2)

There was a magical power in guns.

Every man had probably tried a gun at least once.

As a child, he might have shot paintballs at a survival game field.

He might have shot airsoft guns or water guns as toys.

More importantly, he had shot countless times in the military, and even during reserve training, he had shot at zero-range targets.

Though the military was frustrating to think about, the recoil at the moment of pulling the trigger sometimes made a man’s heart race.

Manipulating the gun to pull the trigger, placing it accurately on his shoulder, pulling the trigger, and hitting the target precisely with the recoil hitting his shoulder—all these steps.

Every man had felt a thrill down his spine at least once because of that sensation.

And now.

Not an M16 I met at a countryside reserve training site while moving around, but all sorts of guns with history and tradition from before the Great Catastrophe.

It’s a shame they weren’t live bullets, but I could shoot something that gave an even more thrilling sensation than live bullets.

Magic bullets formed by magic power.

Bang—!

As soon as I pulled the trigger, the muzzle flashes.

The avatars of Gyo Berris tried to dodge the direction of the muzzle, but the magic bullets were faster than their bodies.

Thud.

With a dull sound, another avatar collapsed with a hole in its head.

And at the same time, as soon as it collapsed, its head exploded.

Splash.

Blood splattered around.

Like a mannequin’s head exploding, the fragments spread around the avatar and scattered on the ground.

[If you blow up someone’s head, you should expect your own to blow up too.]

The magic bullet, which pierced precisely through the middle of the forehead, does not stop at lodging in the head.

A magic bullet, difficult to replicate even with special bullets, has explosive properties. As it lodged in the avatar’s head, it exploded inside according to my will.

“Grr…!”

[If it only pierces, they’ll try to regenerate quickly through the puncture. Blowing it up is better.]

Bang, bang.

I kept shooting the magic bullets.

I kept pulling the trigger with one arm, but a superhuman’s body could easily handle this weight and recoil.

It would certainly be easier to aim if I held it with both hands.

That was the basics of gun shooting.

Even pistols were held with both hands, so how could one shoot a sniper rifle classified as a rifle with one hand?

“Grr, arrogant NTR scum…! Just die already!”

[Sorry, but I’m not the one getting stolen from, I’m the one stealing.]

However.

[I will block it. At most, it’s just rushing and swinging claws…!]

“Both of you, just blow up!!”

Sometimes.

“You two, go together!!”

A man had to give up practicality and pick something else.

[It’s dangerous.]

[Uh…?!]

I pulled Yumir with one hand and turned my body.

Yumir, whose waist I grabbed, was about to rush forward but immediately entrusted her body to me. Holding her waist, I stepped on the ground and shot forward.

Tat-tat-tat-tat.

Though it’s a sniper rifle, unlike before, I formed magic bullets with short bursts of magic power, firing them continuously.

The avatars rushing towards us halted in place due to the stopping power of the magic bullets, and soon their bodies started to split apart.

Bang!!

[Self-destruct?!]

[You’re nasty.]

While holding Yumir, I landed on the ground just as I had jumped up.

[Th-thank you. I never thought they would self-destruct….]

[It’s just one of the avatars. Sorry for grabbing you suddenly.]

[N-no. Though there wouldn’t have been damage, if I imagine getting covered by that… ugh.]

Yumir gritted her teeth at the blood splattered on the ground.

At the same time, she extended her Dragon Killer forward and lightly clenched her fist.

Bang, bang, bang!

Golden claw-like blades fired forward, piercing the avatars all at once.

Not just piercing one, but several avatars’ solar plexuses one after another.

Click!

As soon as she fired three claws, golden claws sprang out from inside.

[Aura Blade Ejection. I tried imitating what you mentioned in that fantasy novel you sent me last time. How is it?]

[Impressive. At this rate, you could even use an Ego Sword in the future.]

Certainly, with Yumir, battles were easier.

She excelled at manifesting the techniques I taught her, or learned from other media, her own and adapting them.

[Leave the front to me, Yumir.]

[I’ll cover you from behind!]

And thanks to that, I could trust my back to Yumir.

I turned my body to face back-to-back with Yumir and spread the magic power flowing through the goblin club-turned sniper rifle to both sides.

Zap!

With golden sparks, the sniper rifle split into two.

Similar to before, but now about 50% darker in color.

Bang, bang!

Dividing one into two halves the firepower, but naturally, magic bullets fly to both sides.

It had to be this way.

Otherwise, I wouldn’t be able to sweep away all the Gyo Berris avatars secretly crawling up from below the factory.

“Grr…. How?!”

Bang, bang.

“The stealth was perfect?!”

As the heads of the avatars climbing the wall from behind exploded and fell, one of the barely climbed avatars growled at me.

[Turning the avatars around to strike from behind, I can see it all.]

“It shouldn’t be visible!”

[Let’s just say, I’m looking five steps ahead of you.]

Actually, I figured it out through the Gunggi spread in the sky, but I didn’t have to tell them that.

We were in a time attack after all.

[Hah!]

Yumir swung her Dragon Killer as if scattering it.

Golden slashes flew like crescent moons, cutting avatars in half, and then spread like X’s, slashing along the ground.

Sssssh!!

“Kyahaaaak!!”

The avatars touched by Yumir’s magic power melted away.

Like Duoexini, Gyo Berris’s avatars turned to ashes and were purified by Yumir’s sunlight-like magic power.

[There’s no more reason to hesitate.]

With a confident voice, Yumir emitted even stronger magic power.

[If they are purified by my magic power and have no human remains, it means you aren’t even human but a demon!!]

Yumir swung the Dragon Killer without hesitation, sending slashes flying.

“Shut up!”

“Those who ruin pure love with NTR are the real demons!”

“You’re more of a demon for helping the goblins!”

The Gyo Berris, who only knew how to engage in melee combat, tried to get close and self-destruct, but none of them ever succeeded.

[They are endless.]

[Are they infinitely multiplying? Then we should target the main body…!]

[It’s not infinite multiplication. Each one is connected in parallel. There are many, but the multiplication has an end.]

Tat-tat-tat-tat!

[If we keep eliminating them, the last one will be the main body. It would be nice if destroying the main body caused the others to die too.]

As Yumir advanced, I retreated while continuing to shoot magic bullets to explode the avatars.

[Even if there are avatars elsewhere, if all the ones here die because of the barrier….]

Zap!

I retrieved the magic power forming the gun, reverting it to a club.

Then, turning my body sideways, I hugged Yumir from behind and jumped up.

Swoosh.

Even though I hugged her in a back hug and jumped quite high, Yumir clung to me without any issues.

Rather, she extended the Dragon Killer downward.

[Not the back, but below.]

“This, this—”

Whirr—

Golden lasers surged down from the Dragon Killer.

The hands of the avatars that had just jumped onto the factory roof from below were purified and began to disappear in Yumir’s light.

Bang.

Gathering magic power in my feet, I kicked the air, performing a double jump forward while holding Yumir.

Yumir continued her barrage of light downward as I slowly descended, holding Yumir and turning my body.

“This, this…!”

[Yumir, that’s not how you use it. It’s not a beam cannon.]

[How about calling it my unique fighting style?]

[…Hmm, now that I think about it, that seems right.]

If one handled close range, the other handled long range.

[Back me up. I’ll take the avatars’ heads off from the front.]

[Not smashing the heads?]

[Don’t assume I’ll always use blunt weapons.]

If Yumir was going to shoot, I needed to change to a form suitable for close combat.

[I also use bladed weapons.]

Click.

I formed a magic blade at the end of the club, turning it into a crescent blade.

[It’s cleaner to cut them off rather than having flesh burst when they explode.]

Swish!

I swung the pole, decapitating an avatar.

The avatar’s headless body fell backward, and Yumir aimed her claws at the head flying into the air, firing a beam.

Sizzle.

The avatar turned to ashes and vanished.

Currently, no avatar could inflict damage on us.

It might cause mental damage due to the grotesque slaughter, but we should be used to it by now.

[How long will you keep sending avatars?]

“…Heh, heh-heh.”

[Like Duoexini and you, you can only create demons but can’t fight worth a damn.]

“Is that so?”

Smirk.

All the Gyo Berris pointed their hands at us.

“Then, try fighting against your own combat style.”

[……!!]

[No way…!]

[Copying?]

“It’s not copying, it’s called ‘mirroring’!”

Tat-tat-tat-tat.

From all directions, the fingers of Gyo Berris started flying at us like bullets.

They were as fast as magic bullets, and the way the fingers swarmed seemed explosive.

Moreover, the launched fingers spouted red blood drops towards us like beams.

In an instant, I figured out Gyo Berris’s combat style.

Using avatars to learn the enemy’s pattern and countering it.

Gathering data and utilizing it as it was.

Just like how they utilized what happened on this angelic island in Thailand, they fought by accumulating and utilizing knowledge.

Bang—!

A golden shield unfolded before me.

[What now? At this rate, we’ll run out of resources.]

Blocking the finger bullets and beams flying from all directions, Yumir asked nervously.

[Against such a demon—]

[It’s close to infinite.]

Click.

[For example.]

I turned the club back into a gun and aimed it at Gyo Berris.

[Using an ability they can’t replicate.]

Using an ability that even the devil of omniscience can’t comprehend, one that can’t be acquired through the accumulation of knowledge.

[I have seven magic bullets.]

I pulled the trigger.

One, two, three.

Creating holes in the shield and intercepting the finger bullets.

[Six bullets will hit the targets.]

I fired the magic bullets again.

Four. Five. Six.

The bullets pierced through the heads of three avatars.

[The last bullet will penetrate the demon’s heart.]

To the devil of omniscience.

[I am the sniper of magic bullets. Come forth, Angel of Death.]

I used the power that reached only the ‘result.’

The seventh bullet, which was guaranteed to kill someone.

[Execute. Samael.]
