"Shotgun"
My part-time brother and Vargas are arguing.
Next to that, I activated my magic.
Riding the Valkyrie, I cast a spell on my right hand towards Vargas.
At that moment, a hard stone, sharp as an arrow, flew from my hand towards Vargas.
Dudan.
A shotgun pierces the ground with such a sound.
The magic that was unleashed on Balgas hit the ground, not because the aim was too sweet.
It was just a slight distraction, like a threatening shot.
A shotgun flew into the ground at the foot of Vargas.
"... is that magic?
"That's right. Drop your weapon. I want to talk to you. If you move, I'll hit you this time."
"All right, try it."
Though I called to discuss it, it seems that I received it as a provocation.
Even if I saw the shrapnel, I was just a little surprised, and it didn't seem like I was afraid.
Vargas began to run toward us like a prey.
Has he fought terribly fast, or has he been active on the battlefield, and has he taught his opponents who are capable of ranged attacks that they need to be approached quickly?
"Hey, stop. Shotgun!"
Activates magic to intercept in a hurry.
But the next moment, Vargas flew sideways.
Shotbullets flying with several stones have the effect of increasing the accuracy.
Because it's a magic made with the intention of hitting any one of them and damaging them.
But Balgas did a great job of preventing it.
The moment I flew the shotgun, Valgas, who was supposed to be running toward us, jumped sideways reading the trajectory.
However, that alone cannot circumvent all stones.
But in anticipation of that, he waved his sword as a shield and flew a stone that was about to hit him.
There was no doubt about the move.
Perhaps he was surprised by the flying stone and shook his big sword in time.
Maybe he spotted the characteristics of the shotgun when I first threatened to shoot him.
The magic of shrapnel is convenient, but it has its own characteristics.
First of all, I point my palm towards the target.
In other words, you can read from the opponent where you are going to release magic.
In addition, the characteristic that multiple stones fly in scattered spaces will be able to escape beyond that range as long as they understand how they diffuse.
Even if you can't escape out of range, there is no problem if you prevent it with a shield.
Even if it's a sharp stone, it's not powerful enough to penetrate the metal.
But I wonder if I can understand it and deal with it just once.
I may not be able to.
No, I wouldn't put it into practice even if I could.
If you fail to dodge, you will take a lot of damage.
I knew very well that a man named Vargas would be afraid of people in other villages.
Being accustomed to battle, he has the power to judge instantly and even the courage to jump in without fear of the opponent's attack.
I see, they just call me a hero.
"Shotgun, shotgun, shotgun, shotgun"
Vargas is gradually shrinking in distance.
I will continue to intercept it.
There must be a limit to how much judgment you can use to avoid it.
That's what I thought. I kept singing shotguns.
The sharp stones produced one after the other are thrown by the balgas as it runs closer.
Vargas trying to get around it somehow.
At last, however, there was a limit to avoidance.
I'm not panicking with you without thinking about it.
Predicting the direction Valgas would evade, he was firing a shotgun at a position that pre-fetched the movement.
The shotgun flew in a direct strike course toward Balgas, which jumped sideways.
No matter how big a sword it is, it can't be prevented.
That's what I thought. I was surprised again by Balgas's behavior.
It's a direct hit now.
That's what I thought.
"Ooooooooooooo!"
Vargas barked.
Balgas shouted loudly as if his tympanic membrane could definitely be torn.
And at the same time as that roar, Vargas pushed himself towards the shrapnel of my direct strike course.
Although Vargas wears a leather bra, he is other than that.
If I thought I'd hit the shotgun straight, I'd have done some damage.
But I don't see any major scratches on Balgas's body as close as I can get.
Could it be [cured]?
I had a big pig on my head that didn't shrapnel or shrapnel.
It was said that the big pig could not pass through the arrow, but the hard surface and fur were not the only causes, and it was possible to use the magic of cure .
Actually, I can do something close to this [hardening].
I often use Physical Enhancement to fill my body with magic to increase my strength.
However, concentrating magic on the skin, which is the surface of the body rather than the whole body, will increase the ability to prevent impact from the outside.
Probably the same with Vargas.
It's not a spell, but I might have learned how to raise my body's defenses on the battlefield by using a loud howling voice as a self-cue.
"I'm so sorry."
I didn't expect this village to have magic that would increase its defenses.
I also realized that the opponent who is accustomed to fighting may not be able to cope with Shotgun magic alone.
This may have been good in a way, just being careful before fighting the Fontana family.
But it was bad luck to come in ready to be shot, just because my defense was going up.
It wasn't decided that my attack would not go through.
The noise of Zudong echoed.
Soil and smoke are rising in the area, making the surrounding area less visible.
I don't suppose they knew what had happened.
It was quiet.
After a while, the wind blows and the earth and smoke disappear.
There was a balgas down there.
Next to that, his proud sword is rolling from the roots.
After seeing it, I guess I finally understood the surroundings.
I defeated Vargas.
The villagers watching with hard spit stared at me riding the Valkyrie as if I had seen something terrible.
