Chapter 284 – Poor Familiar and Utopia (4)

I summoned Shahemos and tried to sleep comfortably in the bed alone, but she whined that she didn’t want to go back.

She patiently waited for me to collect mana while using Yeonyeongshin Gong (連影神功), so should I just tolerate this?

Anyway, I can sleep comfortably thanks to combat sleep.

So, we laid down in bed together and this little boy snuggled into my arms.

I gave him a little pat on the back as if I were dealing with a child, and when his breathing slowed, I closed my eyes.

The next day, I took Shahemos to the shooting range.

Not many people use it because of the cost of bullets, but it is still a good place to practice.

I took out an automatic pistol and showed Shahemos shooting.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

After firing just three shots, Shahemos made a strange expression.

“Master, I think that’s pretty strong?”

“There is no weapon more effective than this when used or against someone without mana.”

Shahemos walked confidently forward to take the shot, but due to his short stature, he changed his form to that of an adult.

The man consumed during transformation was refilled to Shahemoth, and Shahemoth created a pistol with a combined magazine.

Then, just like I did, I held the pistol with both hands and fired at the target.

Bang!

“Ahh. Master, this has strong recoil!”

Shahemos was surprised by the recoil, but I was surprised that I made the gun and shot it.

My Shadow Craft is basically combining shadows and giving them physical power.

I wanted to make a weapon like a gun out of shadows, but I gave up early when I realized it was impossible.

I gave up the gun and chose to make a dagger and throw it right away when I needed a long-distance attack, but it was a gun.

Moreover, there was no shortage of power.

“Can you shoot more?”

“Yes. I won’t be pushed out this time.”

After saying that, Shahemos took his stance again and started shooting.

Bang! Bang!

After firing three shots, the pistol disappeared.

“Can’t you keep your shape if you fire three Shahemos shots?”

“Master, couldn’t you only use it three times?”

“This can hold up to twelve shots.”

I took out the magazine and showed Shahemos the ammunition one by one.

“It looks like this. Now I can make it for sure!”

After saying that, Shahe Mos held out her hand as if asking for her mana.

I filled up the mana again and Shahemos remade an automatic pistol with a combined magazine.

“Can I shoot?”

“If it were someone else, it would probably disappear the moment I handed it over, but if it was the owner, I think it would.”

Is it because I used my mana to create an illusion?

I grabbed the pistol and started shooting.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

It felt a little less powerful than the automatic pistol I used.

Is it similar in power to the one that Chris Roanna showered with bullets at me in sparring yesterday?

‘Chris Roanna was very good at making magic and using it.’

If fantasy magic is a type of magic, Chris Roanna can use it.

After firing nine shots, the gun disappeared into smoke.

It was a gun that had the ability to eject even shell casings, but once the shot was finished, everything disappeared like smoke.

Leaving no trace is an advantage, but wouldn’t it be a bit inefficient to not only have to make a magazine, but also make the gun disappear?

“How are you, master?”

After I finished shooting, Shahemos hugged me from behind.

“This is more efficient than using illusions to create a perfect strike.”

“I think I can do that twice now.”

“It looks like the amount of mana that can be stored has increased significantly.”

“Hehe. It’s thanks to the master♡”

“It’s smaller now. I have somewhere to go.”

“Chi. I understand.”

Taking Shahemos, who had returned to his small form, I headed to the equipment maintenance shop that I briefly visited yesterday.

And at the beginning of summer vacation, I stopped by Master to buy a gun.

“I’ve been a guest since daytime. Hmm. Isn’t it spherical?”

“Yes, Mr. Smith. It’s been a while.”

“Who’s the girl over there?”

“He’s my familiar, but he’s small, so I’m thinking of giving him an automatic pistol.”

“Still, it’ll be difficult to use, right? Well, since you’re a familiar, it’ll be okay. So, are you here to buy a gun for yourself?”

“I just plan to use it as a reference for now. Can you show me an automatic rifle?”

“Automatic rifle. I think it’s too much for a sidearm? I get it though.”

Mr. Smith went to the back and brought a gun to see if it was an item that was sold as often as a pistol.

He held the gun with both hands and looked at the magazine containing 30 rounds.

After examining her rifle, I handed it over to Shahe Moss to take a look, but the girl was completely off balance as she was holding a large gun.

Mr. Smith said after seeing that.

“I guess you were planning to teach your familiar what the rifle looks like, not for you to use.”

“Oh my… Have you been caught?”

“It’s okay if you just buy bullets instead.”

“I think it’s a bit expensive to say it’s the price of seeing a rifle… I used it, so I need to fill it up.”

I handed over the automatic rifle and its bullets to Mr. Smith.

Then I took out the empty magazine of the automatic pistol, returned one and filled the other.

This leaves two full magazines.

So I bought bullets, came out of the equipment maintenance shop, and asked Shahemos.

“Can you make it?”

“I don’t think it will work because I don’t have enough mana. It’s powerful and can shoot a lot.”

Shahemos attempted to create something similar to an automatic rifle by gathering mana in both hands, but it failed to take shape and disappeared.

“You mean I just need more mana?”

“Master, will you grow bigger?”

“No. I think there is another way.”

If you complete the Yeonyeong Shinguk (連影神功) used through the skill link, Shahemos will be able to grow on its own.

Then, the priority is for me to complete the original Yeonyeom Shingong (連炎神功).

I focused slightly and checked Han Xian, who was being liberated.

Han Xian, who was going about his usual daily routine, was resting while looking at the scenery at Huangshan Mountain.

‘I don’t think there will be much left for the Yongbongbimuje when Master Yeomwang comes.’

Since it was a long way to Shaanxi, I thought I might have to leave before then.

And I looked at Shahemos.

“You can speak all the languages ​​​​​of the other world?”

“Because he was originally a devil?”

As combat power increased rapidly by making guns, there were more places to use Shahemos.

I may not be able to use my power in Utopia, but being able to use a gun in the class I possess means that I have gained combat power that is like a foul.

“Okay. Let’s stay for a few days and then go somewhere else together.”

“I understand, master.”

I toured Shahemos and Global Academy and watched the remaining students in Utopia taking classes.

I felt like the professors were teaching more passionately than when I had seen them in passing before.

As the second semester approaches, classes may have become more in-depth, but we now have Olympus who can be considered a competitor.

As I was walking around the academy, Shahemos asked me.

“How old are you here, master?”

“I think I’m in the top 10 in a group called first year. There are more than I.”

“It’s full of people stronger than you, master. I’m glad they didn’t invade this place.”

“The other world is interfering here in the form of a dungeon. Let’s go to the dungeon as well.”

I took Shahemos to the dungeon management office.

Would you like to hunt a hobgoblin for the first time in a while?

After registering for the dungeon, I met Seoyeon and Royna Naen, who decided to have lunch together. Shahemos was very surprised at first when he saw Naen.

However, after noticing that she was a completely different person, including the difference in her breasts, speaking style, and personality, she returned to her normal childlike self and enjoyed the buffet.

*

(Master, I really like guns.)

Shahemoth, who canceled the summoning because he could not maintain his form, whispered to me.

Shahemos opened the way to almost the end of the dungeon where Hobgoblin appears as the boss.

I found out by continuing to supply mana to Shahemos while fighting, but there was a limit to Shahemoth’s ability to accept my mana.

Should I say it is fully charged 5 times in its current state? I was able to make 10 transformations and 5 12-shot automatic pistols.

Fortunately, I was able to resupply mana to a certain extent through effects such as the Continuing God’s Ability, so it wasn’t set in stone, but I wasn’t able to fight indefinitely while replenishing mana to Shahemoth.

“Yeah, because there won’t be a fight like this.”

Shahemoth’s accuracy rate was still low, and I had reached my charging limit when I came to a dungeon with many monsters. I grabbed the Shadow Longsword, thinking that if I got used to it a little more, I could break through the intermediate dungeon even if I just replenish mana.

“Then let’s finish quickly and go home.”

Yeonyeom Shingong (連炎神功)

Three-wheel resonance (破輪共鳴)

Guided by the heat radiating from within my body, I headed forward to the end of the dungeon.

The path I walked was shimmering in a haze due to the intense heat.

As I spent time visiting dungeons with Shahemos, the information control that Utopia maintained was relaxed.

From anyone’s perspective, the main purpose was to personally confirm Olympus’ intervention in the world.

“This is shit.”

Until now, every nation on Earth had been protected from the threat of another world called the Dungeon by paying a certain amount of money to Utopia, but now they have begun a tightrope walk with Olympus.

The monopoly collapsed, competition began, and the powerful nation of the United States has already turned away from the active intervention declared by Olympus.

Although donations are made to two places, would you say that the proportion of utopias has decreased significantly? In addition, Olympus said that when a new dungeon appeared, the surrounding land would not be purchased but would be recognized as that country’s land, so the benefits were even better.

Olympus began fierce competition as a latecomer, but Utopia did not change its policy significantly.

Many residents of Utopia expressed their frustration when they saw the direction of Utopia, which was waiting to fill the gap that had already widened, as if it were to be filled if possible.

In terms of politics, can it be seen as a fight between conservatives and progressives?

However, the difference from politics is that we plan to put our interests on the line and have a proper fist fight later.

So, I also plan to undergo a similar Yongbonbimuje ceremony.
