《Another World: Scientist》Chapter 54. The First.
Advertisement
We waited for days, doing nothing.
We couldn't do anything, we had to wait for Landar to tell us that the guns had been created.
(I hate this... It's boring... I've done nothing productive all this time!)
"Hayden, you have done productive things during the time we have waited. You found out a way to get stronger guns here without having to involve anybody else." Ion immediatly realizes what I was thinking.
"True but there's no point right now... These guns are meant to be used against other people with guns, not with swords and bows." I sigh.
Ion lands on the table while I'm sitting on the couch.
We just stay there, silently.
Doing absoloutely nothing but wait for Landar to arrive, just like everybody else I came here with.
(Now I know why the heroes in the stories trained when they had free time. Not to become stronger, they already were that. But to not be this bored. I could train to keep my skills up to date and not rusty but I'd waste bullets. And right now, I don't know if they're going to be even able to make some...)
--- A few days later --
"Hayden! We've done it! The first gun and a batch of 'bullets' for it has been made!!" Landar suddenly busts through my door, shouting news I've been waiting for.
We stare at eachother for a few seconds before I react.
"What are we waiting here for, Landar! Gather your troops! It's time I show them how to use the guns! Even though we only have one but early training never hurts!" I push Landar out the door and we immediatly walk outside.
Landar tells me to wait and hands me the AK47 with an entire magazine filled with 30 bullets, the standard.

After half an hour, a ton of people in armor walk up with Landar leading them.
"A bit of our soldiers has arrived." Landar says that and then I realize one of my mistakes.
(Their armor, it's too heavy. If they want to be slow behemoth's wielding a big gun, then sure. But the AK47 is not a big gun. A gatling gun would be a big gun.)
"Alright, first of all. Get out of your armor. Armor will only slow you down. It won't help you in any way if you are trying to quickly kill as many enemies as you can before you run out of bullets. You must basically act like archers." They do exactly as I say, they get rid of their heavy armor without a single bit of hesitation.
I look around and see that the captain had the strongest armor and had them put it up so it would look like an enemy.
"See that, it shouldn't be easily penetrable by an arrow right? But guns are not bows and bullets are not arrows." As I say that, I fire a shot right into the head and the heart.
The soldiers were surprised at first since suddenly two loud bangs appeared which, if you are not used to it, is deafening.
When they opened their eyes and looked at the armor, they had two clear holes in them, right where I aimed.
"That is the power of a gun. Armor has no meaning. Maybe if you had so much armor that you'd need to be dragged around by a troll or something, then maybe this gun would be uneffective but there are more than just one type of gun. Similiar to how there isn't just one type of bow." I start giving the soldiers a lecture and all of them listen but I think Landar listened the most carefully to each of my words since he actually wrote them up.

"I don't know how effective guns will be in this world against creatures such as Dragons and other thick-skinned or tough-scaled creatures but a 'gun' will not be the only thing I bring into this world most likely. All of you must be prepeared to learn something new each time I bring it.
Some day, one of you will be shooting hellfire upon your enemies or carrying the wounded away from the battlefield in a 'truck'. So all of you need to be ready to learn new things." I continue my lecture.
(This is going well. They are learning.)
--- A day later ---
"Hayden, enough guns have been made for a company." Landar comes in again with good news.
"Alright. Have them form seperate platoons, split them up as evenly as possible. A company has how many troops Landar?" I ask Landar a question since Ion has been giving me information which I've been teaching Landar, like the size of a company which has retained through the ages.
"80-150. In our case 150." Landar answers immediatly.
"Good. Split them up into... 6 platoons. Each platoon consisting of 25 soldiers. Supply them with guns and tell them to not do anything to the guns until I get to their platoon." I advise Landar further.
Landar accepts my advice as he has no idea on how to do it himself yet, that is why he is listening to me obediently right now.
To study things from me.

8 148The London Phantom: A Superhero Webnovel
London is an old city. It has survived floods, fires, plagues and the man-made smog of industry. It has stood firm against the armies of Vikings, Saxons, Normans and the aerial might of the Luftwaffe. It has borne witness to dynsatic feuds, civil wars, military occupation and the sin of regicide. Through all these disasters the city has survived not through force of arms, though its walls were once the envy of the world, but through adapting to the times. Enemies become dependant on the city, and the wealth of the world that flows through it, and so become new allies. If the rulers change, then the city welcomes them with open arms, and open lines of credit. In this way the city seeks to preserve its ancient rights and position of power. Superheroes are a new phenomenon. The first superpowered man walked out of the Nevada desert in 1950, and the world was forever changed. Across the planet, men and women with exceptional abilities made themselves known. At first, they were little more than another source of fear in the era of Mutually Assured Destruction, but over time attitudes changed and the concept of the Superhero was created in the city of Los Angeles. From there the phenomenon spread across the globe; superheroes went from being feared arms of the state to a symbol of hope in these maddening times. Times have changed. Sixty years from the emergence of the first superhero, the City of London stands on a precipice. Two years have passed since the madman Fawkes nearly brought down the United Kingdom and the remnants of the Bow Street Runners, London's premier superhero team, are struggling to keep order in a city that seems on the brink of collapse. London stands on a knife's edge, with criminal organisations that once stuck to the shadows becoming more bold, and ancient powers from myth and legend making themselves known. Alexander Laszewski has recently 'awakened' and has become entirely unremakable, effectively making himself invisible to the world. He must use his newfound power to navigate a city on the edge of collapse. If only he could figure out how to turn it off.

8 85A Tragedy for a Demon Lord
In a world created from the love of two goddesses exists endless possibilities. The children of the two goddesses were given the gift of mana, a tool that can weave miracles through thoughts. Yet, with unlimited possibilities, prosperity was the first that disappeared in the world.While there was no difference between the two faction except for the fact that they were born from different mothers, conflict eventually arose out of that single disparity. The children of light saw the foreboding darkness within the heart of their enemies, yet they, who were born in the light, did not realize that they had stepped into the darkness. Because of the desire to eliminate the proclaimed heretics, the world was plunged into chaos and war.Those born to lead the children of the darkness were originally kind hearted souls. Their sole desire was to live in order to worship their mother and goddess. When the thought of war arose, they were the first to reject it. Even though they were born from darkness, they understood how beautiful the light, and the gift of life they received, was. However, after losing everyone and everything, their heart were eventually plunged into darkness. Without anything to live for, without anything to hold them back, they allowed themselves to be consumed by hatred. Cursing the Goddess of Light for the death of their family, those born from the darkness turned away from the light. From the chaos, the demon lords were born, and the cycle of chaos began. Long into the future, where those gifted with the ability to manipulate mana existed in few numbers, a child, fated to be consumed by chaos, was born. The child, born on the horizon that separates darkness and light, was given the blessing of both the Goddess of Darkness and the Goddess of Light. Because he did not exist within either side of the horizon, he was alone. Kept hidden within the castle of his father, he saw little of the world. But, he was content with the life he was given. He had loved his mother and father far more than he loved the world. As long as they were beside him, he did not feel alone. But, when the fated day arrived, his life was shattered. Broken and in despair, a child, born from the love of a demon lord and a human, sought for revenge- the sole reason he continues to live within a cold and merciless world that would never accept him.
