The Novel's Extra (101-200)

Chapter 147 - Three Years (1)

"Auu."

Thud.

I sat down on the chair I made. I was drenched with sweat, and my fingers were numb from firing too many arrows.

"Hm? Are you tired already?"

I was in Chameleon Troupe's training room, which was only 10% finished.

From about 300 meters away, Boss' voice rang out. Looking at her, I grinned.

"...No, not yet."

Boss was currently helping me train.

Well, it was more accurate to say she was helping me 'grind'. I was grinding to raise Master Sharpshooter's grade, which was still stuck at grade-5. Trying to raise a growth-type Gift's grade was hell itself.

"But you look tired."

"I just have to change my weapon."

I put my bow and quiver down.

Strength was much more important than speed and dexterity when it came to using a bow. To shoot an arrow far away with accuracy, a fair amount of strength was required.

"To a gun?"

"Yes."

However, a gun wasn't a bow. As I always say, guns were the best in that all I had to do was pull the trigger.

I took out my gun from Stigma and transformed it into its assault rifle mode.

"Try to dodge it if you can."

"Sounds fun."

Boss stretched leisurely.

As I prepared the magazines, I checked my proficiency EXP.

[Master Sharpshooter – proficiency EXP: 90%]

I was only 10% away from leveling up. In a few weeks, I should be able to get to grade-4, especially with Boss being my practice target.

"I'm starting."

"Okay."

Seeing Boss laugh, I pulled the trigger.

Blue magic power shot out of my gun.

The time it took me to empty the 45-round clip couldn't be more than a second.

All bullets simultaneously shot out, hurling towards one target.

I couldn't predict Boss' movements. As such, I fired at places that had the highest chance to hit her.

However, Boss was quicker than the bullets. Her body weaved through the bullets like wind.

I continued to fire up to 400 bullets, but only four managed to graze her clothes.

"Haha, well done."

Boss was still satisfied with my performance as she praised me with a hearty laugh.

I sat back down on the chair. Although pulling the trigger wasn't difficult, I was dizzy from using Bullet Time as well.

"I'll rest for a bit."

"We should stop here for today."

"...No, I'm almost at grade 4."

"I don't have time."

"Ah, yes."

I nodded and checked my smartwatch.

There were many messages I had yet to reply to.

[It's been a month since summer break started ^_^ Oh right, I met the elementalist, Shin Yeohwa-nim. You've heard of her too, right? She said she would take me in as her disciple!]
