《My Magical System 》Chapter 173: Rapid Bullet
Advertisement
Although they were a group of bandits, They were organized bandits.
Eman was quite surprised that even their footsteps were so silent. He doubted if these people were a group of bandits or ninjas. Perhaps their sound nullification ability already reached an advanced level.
They were as good as most elite soldiers in invoking it. They could be good assassins too.
Eman retreated his head slightly. After doing it, his ears hear a buzzing sound of something passing at an inch distance from his face.
Next, he lifted his arm at the level of his face. A dull sound of impact could be heard. He successfully blocked an attack from an invisible enemy. Then, he spun and kicked.
Looking at him from other's perspectives, he seemed like he was doing shadow fighting. However, after he kicked, a loud crash happened on the rooftop. A few seconds after the crash, a body materialized to where the crash was noticeable. There, a person in black was groveling in pain while caressing his stomach.
Blood was on his mouth. He was looking at Eman with wide eyes, an expression similar to a person who just saw unbelievable things was on his face.
He was seriously surprised that his sneak attack failed. Moreover, it was he who got hurt!
Even though he was still in pain, he pulled his body up. He needed to kill this commander. The bandit lord had promised them a rich reward whoever could bring the head of the soldier's commander.
So he must kill him, but, before he could stand up, his body was suddenly thrown. Like it was hit by a bowling ball. In truth, one of his comrades was thrown and hit him.
The two of them crashed on the roof and rolled many times before they fell from it. They immediately lost their consciousness after the fall.

Eman summoned lumps of earth around him. Then,
He scattered the red aura coming from his Finger Bullet skill and added Soul Energy on it.
Since the Finger Bullet skill could only target an object in his hand, the soul energy was used to guide the flow of aura towards the rotating chunks of the earth around him. One by one the multiple pieces of earth lumps started to glow in bright red and orange.
The idea of doing it was copied by him from the soldiers who cast multiple skills in an object like the arrows.
He would try to make his Finger Bullet skill into a Rapid Bullet that no need to flick to fire it. After getting used to his soul energy, it seemed like the soul energy had become an extension of his hands. He didn't need a master to teach him how to do it, he just needed to see the others use the skill. Once he saw them, he felt like he could do it as well. Perhaps the system was backing him. Secretly, giving him information regarding spell invocation.
He wasn't sure about this, but he felt like, the more he leveled up, the faster he understood about this world's magical spells.
In his perception, he noticed four people were coming closer from all directions.
However, it was just the right time that the earth lumps around him all were glowing.
Eman lifted his hand in front of him and said: "Go!"
All at once, the earth lumps shoot simultaneously towards the enemies. They looked like raining meteorites.
They shot with background sounds similar to fireworks on earth.
But since there were many of them, the sound volume increased that toppled the groaning sounds coming from the invisible bandits.
Eman used 50 soul energy points to summon the earth lumps, and another 50 to guide the Finger Bullet aura. Then, use another 50 soul energy points to fire them all at once.

They didn't only take down the four approaching enemies, they also defeated the other invisible bandits around him. Most of them were taken by surprise. Thus, many of them were injured and wounded. However, since they were elite class bandits, many of them managed to come out untouched. Yet, several notifications regarding killing a bandit were repeatedly alerting him.
They had no time to be surprised, they needed to kill him as soon as possible before the other group would come to steal their prey.
They fired elemental attacks on him. Eman had to move around to evade them. He had high magical defense, but Eman didn't want to be careless. Especially that he felt that this group was stronger than those in a battle against the soldiers.
Also, there were many of them.
But Eman was certain that if one or two landed on him, they would only be as painful as the ant's bite. However, if there were many of them, it would become troublesome even with him. Moreover, he noticed the enemies could rapid-fire.
Eman noticed that people here could rapidly cast their spells as long as they had magical energy, or maybe these bandits were just much better in controlling their magical energies. He punched the air, but right after it, he heard a pained groan.
Then a loud impact happened in a distance, a few meters away from him.
"Dammit, this man can actually see us!" One of them finally admitted it.
Yeah, after Eman took down two of them, they already guessed that this enemy could see them. But it wasn't to the extent of fully convinced. Now, there was no need to cast such a spell who took a large portion of their magical aura and brought no benefits to them. No, it wasn't like the invisibility spell was useless, the only problem was their enemy was a bit of a weirdo.
How could this man pinpoint their position? And he could even tell whether where and when they exactly plan to attack him.
Invisibility spell was their trump card, yet it was useless against this opponent.
They had no idea how he did it, but it was a big problem if they continued relying on it even though he seemed to be unaffected by it.
Seven people materialized around Eman. Their number dropped beyond the half value of their original numbers a while ago.
Eman wanted to finish them using his newly invented spell, the Rapid Bullet. However, it cost a lot of soul energy, so he decided to forget it. Even if he used his Finger Bullet, it would still eat up his soul energy. So he decided to summon his Killing Sword.
The fight continued right away.

Tales From the Terran Republic
We tried, you know… We really did. We tried so hard to be… better… We actually were better once. No, seriously. We were enlightened, generous, peaceful… Stop laughing! We were! We were peaceful, dammit! No, I’m not “tugging your winglets.” It’s true! Look, if you’re going to be like that, I’ll just push the launch button right now. See ya, don’t wanna be… Oh, you ARE interested after all? Ok. Hey, I just got word that your captain will be ok. We were able to get him into a med pod quick enough… Of course, we tried to save him. Just what sort of people do you think we are?... Now that was harsh… completely accurate, mind you… but harsh. Anyway, like I was saying, we were a prosperous, peaceful people, and war had been nothing but a distant memory for over five hundred years before it happened... Before Yellowstone happened! You don’t mean to tell me that you didn’t know about that… massive supervolcano? Blew the Hell out of our planet? Two years where nothing grew?… Anyway, that’s what started it, the Sol Wars… Oh, you have heard about those, huh? Well, needless to say, all that enlightened, generous, and peaceful didn’t exactly make it through the two years of complete famine and the wars that followed… Maybe it’s more accurate to say the enlightened, generous, and peaceful among us didn’t survive… (laughs)… You’re right. It does explain a lot, doesn’t it? Probably for the best, though. “Enlightened” and “peaceful” aren’t really all that useful out here in the galaxy at large, are they? That reminds me; thanks for the ship. You guys did a great job with this one. Oh, don’t be like that. At least it was us what got you and not one of the really messed groups like the Harlequin or the Black Angels. We’re just going to take your shit. It could be worse… trust me... Well, anyway, we loaded the life pods down with some good food, and you guys can drink alcohol, right? We put in a couple of fifths in there, too. It’s about forty percent ethanol, so be warned. Most species will want to dilute that. We’ll drop your wounded off somewhere safe once they are stable. Your fleet patrols this area fairly regularly, and we’ll drop the distress beacon right before we jump… Well, It’s been fun and no hard feelings, right?… Oh, you want to know some more? Sure. I got time to kill… Let me tell you about this one pirate and her crew. They’re Terran scum, but they are still… Why do we hate the Terrans? Hoo Boy… How much time you got? *** It’s the thirty-second century, and humanity is now part of a galactic civilization comprised of hundreds of worlds. Humanity has been savaged by natural disaster and war and has been fractured into several separate populations, all of which loathe each other (some things never change). This is a gritty drama-driven rambling tale that swings between action, drama, horror, and plenty of very, very dark comedy. Warning: contains adult situations, absolutely horrible language, bathroom humor, implied ultra-violence, actual ultra-violence, drugs, alcohol, pirates, mercs, xeno prostitutes, moral ambiguity, deranged AI's with identity issues, giant commie space slugs, and a poor little frog girl who just wants to sell coffee. Updates twice weekly on Tuesday and Friday. *** Note: This story can get rough. Those warning tags? They aren't for show. I recently received a review and as a result I want to make one thing clear. Portraying something is NOT endorsing it! Many "heavy" topics are touched upon and just because a character says or does something does not imply that the author feels the same way. I selected the "Anti-Hero Lead" and "Villainous Lead" tags for a reason. Rule number one of this story is "no good guys". A good description of the story is, "bad people doing bad things to worse people". There are a few good characters, here and there, but they are the exception to the rule. If you want a hard-hitting, exciting, gritty sci-fi story that doesn't pull any punches, or shies away from "difficult" concepts, welcome! If you are set on a pure and noble knight that runs around and slays conveniently evil monsters and rescues totally innocent princesses... or your sensibilities are easily offended... You're not going to be happy with this one.
