episode_0444
by fnovelpiaThere is something a villain who ruled the world said while revealing his ambition.
-Anyone who wants to shoot must be prepared to be shot.
Called.
That’s correct.
As I work as a villain, I go around breaking villains’ pots, and I live prepared to break at any time.
And this word can now be used in other ways as well.
“Those who try to break someone else’s cradle must be prepared to have the cradle broken.”
The cradle is the weakness of all people with this ability.
Since this has already become known to everyone in the world, many people with special abilities are still conducting research to protect the cradle.
“I thought of ‘gold beads’ as that method.”
“Indeed…. Even if someone tries to break your cradle, what ends up breaking is not the actual marble…”
“Golden beads.”
The actual organ is not ruptured.
-Hahaha! I finally broke it! The goblin’s cradle was broken by the attack of me, Villain A!
-I’m sorry. I am not broken yet.
-What… how…?! You must have broken it?!
-I thought there might be someone like you targeting the cradle, so I made a fake cradle.
-Hey, this guy…! Then what did you really do!!
-No need to know. die.
Like the case where the character with the broken arm turned out to be a prosthetic character, I also replaced the cradle with a gold bead.
“I’m sure there won’t be a problem then. Only the location of the organ has been moved, and the things that should be in that location remain the same.”
“Enough to serve as the center of gravity. Thanks to this, when I always weigh myself, the weight of two gold beads is added.”
Because there are gold beads embedded in the body.
“Won’t you get caught in a metal detector when you leave the airport later?”
“It’s okay because it’s Mana Gold. I’ll be careful not to get caught in something like that in the first place.”
“Indeed….”
“It is more effective if caught by a metal detector or X-ray.”
A person who was thought to have special abilities is wearing two gold beads instead of actual organs?
-Sorry, sorry. I didn’t know it was someone who didn’t exist….
Tallulah might be possible right away.
“Serin, what do you think?”
“…….”
There’s no answer.
Without saying a word, I just stayed still, leaving my body to the warmth of the hot spring.
“Don’t look for me. Because I’m really taking it easy right now and enjoying it.”
“They say so. So, let’s leave Serin sleeping well for a while and continue talking about cartridges.”
I reached forward and extended the goblin bat.
” Putting my gold beads aside for now, if we talk about you guys, you guys are going to make weapons too. With Managold.”
“Now Mana Gold is….”
“You can get it again. And it doesn’t necessarily have to be gold, so you don’t have to worry about that.”
Rather, it is easier to obtain.
It starts with gold, but in the future, more ‘metals from the Korean Peninsula’ will contain mana.
“You can use silver, or you can steal gold. Otherwise, bring some claws from some Mecha Tyranno over there.”
I’m asking for a lifesaver, but I’m sure they won’t give it to me just because I’ve become a Mecha Tyranno.
About the toenails.
“Whether it is Mana Gold or Mana Silver, it can be transformed into mana, and a weapon containing mana… is pushed into this bullet. Wait, let’s change the goblin bat.”
bang.
I put the goblin bat into the water and transformed it into a new form.
“Ta-da.”
“…What is this?”
“Gunblade?”
Also called a bomb sword, it is a weapon often seen in appropriate near-future settings.
“On the outside, it looks like a sword, but it is a weapon that can cause an explosion from the blade. The explosion…is triggered by inserting magical power.”
“Then the bullet is…”
“Just insert the cartridge. Ymir. Would you like to try it?”
I pointed to the front of the gunblade, to the part that was intentionally made to look like a revolver magazine.
“Just push it into the hole.”
“In the teacher’s hole…thick and thick…”
“Hey.”
“…heehee.”
Ymir pushed the bullet inside the cartridge into the magazine.
Thump, thump, thud.
The magazine rotated once and stopped in the exact center of the sword body, and I pulled the trigger on the handle of the gunblade.
“Injection.”
Pa-ang.
As smoke rises from the magazine, magical power spurts out from the tip of the blade.
Pushuuut.
“…Phew.”
“How about it?”
“White liquid spewing out from the goblin bat… Teacher, I can’t just ignore this, right?”
“You did that on purpose.”
It came out as if shooting water from a water gun, and the other three noticed right away.
“One person just left.”
Burr.
Someone was shivering violently in the hot springs, but for her honor we decided not to say anything.
“Hye-ra. Serin doesn’t seem to be in very good condition. Can you take care of me?”
“Sure. Hehe, I wonder how much heat would have entered the body.”
” City, it’s noisy….”
Hyeon Se-rin, barely able to utter a single word, sank into the water with a smiling face due to the heat of the hot spring.
“…Haaa….”
“Do you like it?”
“It’s good, it’s good….”
Hyeon Se-rin collapsed.
Of course, even if you cannot actively participate in the conversation, it is enough to be able to hear what is being said.
“What’s next?”
“It’s me, it’s me. Um, can I do it like this?”
Hye-ra Yoon came straight towards me and flopped down on top of me.
“If you keep your head to the side, talking is no big deal, right?”
“Relaxing. Is it because I didn’t use much mana this time?”
“That’s right. Serin and Jieun used a lot of mana this time.”
To them, mana is vitality and stamina.
In other words, the more mana they have, the better they can endure.
“At this rate, maybe I can handle Do Ji-hwan by myself today?”
“But what if a goblin appears?”
“Look….”
Hye-ra Yoon raised her hand above the gunblade I held out in front of me.
fluttering.
At the tip of the gunblade, white flames fluttered like a white flag.
Although she doesn’t use a lot of mana, she expresses herself through very precise magic control.
“So, if you use it this way, there will be no loss in the future… Oh?”
Get rid of it.
Yunhye-ra’s expression hardened as she saw something sticking out from the side.
“Is this really what you just said…?”
“Okay. Surprisingly, the thing that has faded is the Mana Gold that was just put inside.”
“This…? Wow, the condition is really bad.”
Ymir held an object floating on the water with his hand and stuck out his tongue.
“This thing just looks like it…It looks worse than crispy burnt pork belly.”
“It’s even worse than the guy who was inside the grill and found when the grill was about to split.”
“This is ‘gold’?”
Something like carbonized, crushed, and crumpled lead bullets.
“Okay. It’s gold. Until it explodes.”
It was the bullet itself that had entered the gunblade’s magazine just moments ago.
“Now it’s just trash.”
Bullet casings pop out?
Or will there be empty bullets that can be recycled?
-Lizard! There are no shell casings!!
-That’s right, there are no shell casings.
-yes?
-With this weapon, the shell does not come out, but the garbage comes out.
There is no such thing.
What comes out is not shell casings or empty bullets, but just trash.
” As soon as the mana concentrated inside the Mana Gold escapes, the atoms that make up the gold condense and deform.”
“It seems complicated….”
“You can think of it as trash that can never be used again.”
-Lizard! So does that mean we don’t have to pick up shell casings?!
-no. They told me to collect everything even if it had become trash because they didn’t know if it could be recycled.
-No, where is that…
-If you criticize me, I mean criticize me. So where is that trash now?
-……I’m sorry!!
Even if it can’t be recycled, it used to be gold, so some high-ranking people in this country might ask us to take it back.
” Putting aside Managold for now, even if you think of it as just gold, one shot… considering the price of gold, it would be about 2 million won.”
“2 million won per shot…disposable?”
“It’s just a story from when it was gold. Of course, Managold would be much more expensive than that.”
“Uh, isn’t that a bit of a waste…?”
“Not at all.”
Association is different.
“Money is not that important to us. Especially when you use something like this, it’s time to protect something more important than money. Um…yeah.”
I aimed my gunblade at the sky.
“Let’s assume that one day a meteorite suddenly falls from the sky. And it takes a huge amount of mana to destroy it, and there are 200 cartridges worth 100 million per shot next to it.”
“Um….”
“Wouldn’t it be better to spend 20 billion to destroy a meteorite rather than destroy the Earth?”
“I understand what it means. No matter how much money is spent…”
“If you can protect something more precious with that money, it is worth it.”
I was handed a cartridge that had been carbonized to ash.
“It may be a waste to use it as a demonstration material to show to everyone, but it has full value as an educational material.”
“Gachira….”
“If you put this on the market, it could sell for more than a phoenix’s feather, right?”
“……Yes?”
Ymir’s expression hardened.
“There are 2 feathers, right…?”
“That’s right.”
“This is just gold made into a bullet…?”
“Mir. It’s because I keep talking about this next to you. People who hear this for the first time will probably be shocked.”
I picked up another cartridge.
“With this, as long as the quantity is large, anyone can produce magical power that is several times stronger than their own firepower.”
“……!”
“You are buying the possibility. Even after giving that money.”
especially.
“At this point ahead of the World Cup, it is a ‘legal’ power-up tool, different from drugs such as mana powder.”
If there is a competition ahead where the pride of nations and the pride of talented people are at stake, everyone will try to find equipment, even if it means paying a premium.
“People have one misunderstanding. The great weakness of the phoenix’s feathers.”
“…Weakness?”
“Okay. For a villain like me, it’s a weakness that makes people say, ‘That’s worth 2 trillion won?’”
I made them raise the asking price to 2 trillion won, but honestly, it doesn’t mean anything.
“Phoenix’s feather has the power to return a person whose body has disappeared to 10 seconds ago.”
“Right…?”
“If I kill you again, it’s over.”
“Ah.”
It’s a natural thing to say.
“I used it once, so how can I use it again?”
Because resurrection doesn’t mean you can be resurrected.
“It’s no different from a cartridge.”
Consumables are just that: consumables.
“An enemy that uses up all its mana to strike a blow can be revived with a phoenix feather? Then, just use the cartridge to replenish your mana and then make an additional hit.”
resurrection?
Just kill him again and that’s it.
Even if your mana runs out.
All you need to do is recover with a cartridge.
