《Never Bring Sword Into a Gun Fight》The merchant return
Advertisement
Guarding a guard tower is a befitting job for a gunner.
But I just hope I have something more than this 1911.
It would be nice if I have that Accuracy International AXMC packed in .388 Lapua Magnum. Heck, I'll be satisfied even with just Kar98 with that 7.92 Mauser cartridge...
Oh! Mounting that MG 'Zipper' 42 here would also be nice...
Other than that, the thing I needed the most is...
A night scope!
Seriously, it's so dark out there!
I have a torch beside me, but the only thing it illuminates is my face.
I'll be a very juicy target for any sniper even if he's 3km away from here.
How can I spot a lycan in this situation when even in broad daylight it only gave off a black silhouette?
The first night is quiet.....
Back at the inn
[So, how's your first night?] Andreas
[Nothing much. It's very quiet which is good but on the other hand, it's too quiet it makes me always on edge for everything that moves.] Me
[but I heard a guard see something though.] Andreas
[Yeah, the guard in the West Billy told me. But no one is really sure what is it. A group that sent there to check also didn't find anything.] Me
[I mean, there's also a probability that you actually kill it that day right?] Andreas
[Maybe. But I won't be so sure. A single shot from my g.. magic can easily kill a man. I just dump 8 shots to that thing and it only stops after I hit its head.] Me
[Wow, seriously? kill a man with a single shot? I already guessed it'll be at least to that level after hearing that loud bang your magic gave. But to be honest, visual-wise,... it's not that spectacular.] Andreas

[Oy oy! If you know about the nature of my magic, spectacular audio and visuals are actually things that I avoid!] Me
[Not that I'll tell you anything about my magic though] Me
[Awww come on!!] Andreas
--------------------------------------
And just like that, a second and third night also gone quiet.
Did I really kill that thing? Did I worry for nothing?
Not that I want that lycan coming to this village, but why do I feel more unsettling now?
[See?? Like I said, it probably died already!] Andreas
[Oyyy! I'm back!!]
[Wait, Val? Why did you come back?] Me
[I have done my business in Romora so I come here with a group of mercenaries that being hired yesterday. I mean, who wants to miss an opportunity of loot from a lycan?] Val
[You might waste your time here, Val. That lycan never show up for these three days. It carcass must have been gone eaten by wild animal] Andreas
[What? Are you serious? We should have to check it back then.] Val
[But what if it actually still ali...] Me
[Excuse me, Mr. Dean, Village elder want to see you] villager
[Ah okay. Excuse me guys] Me
-------------------------------------------
[Dean, I want to hire you again.] Rando
[Huh?] Me

How A Villain Builds A Kingdom
READ THE WARNING Amadeus Devereux was born into a rich and powerful household. But he did not pursue power like his brothers because of his love for art, flowers, and poetry. Until one day, a servant arrived in the garden to see Amadeus smiling as if he was looking at a flower. Only this time, Amadeus was looking at the mangled corpses of two gardeners. ————————— Set in a fantasy world where magic exists, follow Amadeus as he embarks on a journey of self-discovery. Will he be able to feel emotions as others do? This is a novel that I wrote because I got tired of all the tropes that had transmigration, regression, deus-ex machina, etc. where everything that makes the main character reach the top is left to luck. —————————

The devil's got my number
Dalton was always a nice place. Always had been. When that new couple moved here, we were all ecstatic. They were wealthy, but not arrogant, always willing to help out their neighbors. All around the perfect kind of migrant. They brought a child with them. Jacob. He was beautiful, just like his parents. He had his mother's beautiful hair, and his father's beautiful eyes. But he was different. He wasn't social, or nice, like his parents. He mainly kept to himself. Until one day he didn't. Strange tales, of the boy running around the neighborhood at night started to pop up. Of sacrificing children and dark rituals. The average person dismissed it as just that, rumors. But those of us that had seen the boy, knew the truth. His eyes were no longer the deep, vibrant color of his father. They were the green of rot, his skin the color of a corpse. The devil had taken the boy, and, like a disease, he was spreading his curse.
