Chereads / Inakno! / Chapter 9 - Adventurer's Life

Chapter 9 - Adventurer's Life

I am in great fear of being killed or even getting lost for the least. They just suddenly decided for me and now I'm being forced to take up my weapon so I can fight.

Though there's still no coup that happened yet, I am armed with nothing but my pistol and some submachine guns created using the magic to use smokeless gunpowder and others. To be more specific, I am now being interviewed for the registration of an adventurer's ID.

...

Earlier that day, Myka, Lanze, and I discuss something about my power. Yes, I do possess knowledge but they told me that the world is too cruel for someone who have non-existant physical power.

I was told to fight a mock battle, but I ended up being arrogant and so, we decided I would be fighting in an actual battle. In the end, they send me here saying I will find myself to countless battles.

It was a decision unknown to me. To be outsmarted is to make a fool out of me yet I find it calming since I expected for a bit.

The one in front of me is a receptionist of the adventurer's guild, High Castle. The lady in front of me wore a violet uniform that spells the aura of being an office lady, though i find her appealing because of her clothing. Maybe just my lust getting rampant.

Either way, now's not the time for foolishness and only time awaits my fate. So I answer every question she ask. Such as possession of power, about that, I gave her a good example of mine. There's also the status, which is not that great.

Then the end. No practical or anything, just a simple mana test to check my validity. Still, despite being a faint magic, they accepted me.

They seem to have been notified early which is I thought.

"Here's your ID, if you want to take some request, there's the board. All of it are stationed there, you can only take the same level are yours. Well, you can also take higher levels, but you will not be compensated if any sort of things happen to you, additionally, you will have to pay extra compensation for the failure to achieve request.

Your rank will be 7th since you're just beginning, if you have anymore question, I will be here and ready to help you at anytime."

With that, I held my ID with a dignified face as it was an achievement. It was actually a worthy time for leisure.

For the time being, I will make connections within this guild and rise my power which is theorized by Lanze. I also gave them the blueprints to create or invent the Springfield Model Rifle. It was a pretty primitive weapon used in the Civil War. I also gave them the blueprints for Canon, revolver, and gatling gun.

I doubt they will be able to recreate the gatling gun with their low resources but if they are persistent enough, they might be able to create one.

Now, for me, I will be taking some request. Let's see, a horned rabbit, giant chicken, wait... I can read?

Oh yeah, I forgot. I was also given a linguist ring which give the power to read, I'm borrowing it until I am able to read them without the use of this third party.

So now, I should probably accept the giant chicken. Giant chicken is maybe like some sort of a dinosaur like creature but I doubt they look like that. They are probably just large bird who can't fly.

Thus, I decided.

...

Within the field of my vision lies a giant chicken, truly a giant chicken resting in her nest while napping. It was guiltful sight that might stay in my mind for a while but this innocent creature needs to die for the sake of the client's greed. In the end, I killed her by shooting her head, making it painless for her.

I also collected the large chicken eggs so I can try to them when I got hungry. Thankfully, I brought some salts with me which is enough. But having a pepper is better.

Well, anyways I collected the loot which is her body and continue my journey. One down, two to go.

And yes, I doubt my power will rise by just aiming at the enemy and killing them from a hundred meters away. It sound doubtful.

By the end of the day, I was able to collect all of them and delivered it to the adventurers guild.

What I love in a city is when it's dark. Back in my world, the darkness are overshadowed by the brightness of the light everywhere in my city.

However, even though I didn't expect, it did betray me. The lights here are powered by the mana crystal which can be trigerred remotely by the government. They are the responsible for the great view that I currently enjoy.

The people here and there buy their own product, others travel through foot beside the travelling horses, I dont know but I feel a bit nostalgic despite not experiencing this.

This is something that truly is worth protecting. Those innocent smile, they can never be exchange by mere technology.

As I was heading out, planning to deliver my collected loot with a smile, I was stop by a few suspicious guy.

To me, I don't look like feminine at all, nor do I look like someone who is incredibly rich. I do have a bag of bodies lying in my back but that's it.

"You're the new boy from the guild right? Quite the loot there, mind getting checked?"

"Why?"

"Just because."

I look straight at the eyes of a possible mugger and decided to confront him with everyone around.

"Are you perhaps trying to rob me? That would've been pitiful if you end up dropping dead here, though."

The man look annoyed, but the leader tried to calm him, still I am sitting duck right now.

I'm holding the bag with both of my hand which can hinder me from grabbing my guns.

Oh yeah, I've got an idea.

"Wait, do you even know who-"

Before I could finish, I was suddenly and forcefully strangled in my neck. The loots I have collected had also thrown to the ground revealing the eggs crushed.

"*Cough*, y... You, de-destroyed... my eggs."

They laugh, I was at my wits end and yet they're laughing. The people that was walking here and forth was also gone. It was as if they intentionally didn't walk near us.

Which is damned.

"Your eggs? What do you mean... You mean this?"

They held my balls which made scream from the pain, it was no simple touch but they also tried to squeeze.

It was painful, I wanna kill them as a price for trying to crush my future.

I held my waist with the small energy I have left, pointed it to the guy strangling my neck and a loud bang resound in the place. The man drop on his knee with great shock in his face as he tried to comprehend the situation.

His expression are in dim and any time soon he might scream. I held my balls, trying to comforting it. It was painful, and I want to let them feel how it feel.

The other two was also bewildered by the time I was standing and didn't gave them a chance to realize it. I shoot them three times, randomly, which hit one in the chest and the other in his stomach.

The one on his knee still tried to ease the pain by casting something on it, but to no avail, it didn't work.

I approach him, but slowly. I wore a smile I find terrifying and hope it scared it. Fortunately, it did.

"S-stay away from me, y-you!! What the hell d-did you do to me?!"

".45 ACP or also known as Colt 45 is a 45 caliber pistol designed in 1904 by Browning. A gun I find amusing despite being made pre modern era. It has 6 round bullet, which means I only have two more to use for you."

I pointed the gun at his crotch, I look at her and noticed he made a terrified expression. He realize that the weapon I'm wielding is the one that cause this much pain.

"M-My... My brother... If-If he knows what happen-"

I shot his crotch bleed gush out of it thankfully I'm quite far from him. Just enough not to be spilled by his disgusting blood.

"P-please...don't... I-I won't do it again... I promise."

"Yeah."

I replied, and shot his crotch one more time ending a six round of my magazine. It was not satisfying, but knowing he will live his life without the hope of regaining his future, that would be hilarious.

I don't wanna do it anymore also since I can feel the pain transmitting from his crotch to his. As if I were feeling sympathy. Though he doesn't deserve it.

In the end, I left them with a stern face. It was also extremely uncomfortable, my crotch itches every time I touch it. I won't also have food for dinner since the large eggs was destroyed. A worst day of my life.
