Chapter 18: Commercial contract

"B-bullets! Bullets!"

Joonbum came to his senses at clattering sound of his empty gun and ran to his ammo storage.

"Damn it!"

The area was destroyed, covered in debris. He noticed bullets were scattered all over.

"Keep calm... Keep calm..."

Joonbum picked up any bullet he could find nearby and started to reload.

"Sh*t!"

He unknowingly started cursing. He thought he was well prepared after over a month of repetitive practice but now he felt that he was terribly slow. His frustration slowly changed his fear into rage.

"You piece of- keep moving!"

His trembling stopped, freeing him from the stiffness that had overwhelmed his body.

He managed to reload three bullets and turned to the outside where two orcs were on Galfus. One orc was swinging its club wildly at Joonbum.

The orc tried to throw its club but was shot in its face and fell to the ground, screaming in pain. Its screams resounded throughout the forest. Joonbum had gotten lucky with that shot. It seemed like the slug had pierced the orc's eye, making him writhe in pain while covered in blood. It was no longer a threat.

'Two left!'

One orc had its skull crushed by Galfus and was shaking as if it was having a seizure. The other two were shot by Joonbum, rolling around on the ground, writhing in pain.

"Come here! Ugh."

His voice was coarse. He felt a bitter taste seeping from his mouth and stinging his throat.

Galfus reacted to his voice and came close to the wooden fence, dodging the orcs. The orcs followed it fiercely, holding their clubs above their heads.

'Two more shots.'

An orc that was on the ground stood up as if also reacting to Joonbum's voice, running toward the fortress.

"Sh*t!"

There was blood pouring out from both of the orc's eyes. Not only that, it was bleeding from gunshot wounds all over its body, but it still charged in blindly. The iron barbed wire wrapped itself around the charging orc but even that could not stop its advance.

However, that was its end. The fortress was also protected by iron stakes, facing outward to defend against intruders. The orc ran straight into the stakes, impaling itself on them. It screamed in anger and agony but soon fell silent.

It was like a scene from a movie, but it did not make Joonbum scared as it did before. He was afraid, but a furious rage was brewing inside him.

"Wait!"

Joonbum was startled by Galfus' cry and turned his head around. Galfus was on the ground, staggering from a blow to its body.

"You bastards!"

Joonbum unknowingly cursed loudly, while pulling the trigger as soon as he had the orc's broad back within the sight of his scope.

The orc staggered. The bullets pierced into its back, but it was weak. It took two full shots of the rifle, but it was not fatal.

Fortunately, it did help Galfus. There was evident fear on the only uninjured orc. It was hesitating, looking for an opportunity. The injured orc threw a club and tried the hardest it could to attack, but the uninjured orc did not.
