FPS 139

Kay: So, I’ve been learning a lot more about my ADHD in the last year. WAY more than I ever have, ever ever (and I’ve been to plenty of docs and shrinks). The one thing I learned is that I’m inconsistent when not given some sort of deadline, by someone else. Meaning, a real tangible line my mind knows can’t be moved.

So… If I ever miss a release, blow up my discord asking for it. :]

I was attempting to stop Kada, the leader of Kaidou, and interrogate him on his activities along with people who were connected to the kidnappings. However, he had distanced himself using his skill [Water Flow Operation]. 

The 7.62x51mm NATO round from the M2A2 was deflected by the seawater that wrapped itself around Kada. He laughed from within it. He seemed to have noticed that I had been using something to attack from a distance. That bastard… 

I pulled the lever of my rifle, ejecting the spent casing and loading a new cartridge. The ejected casing dematerialized and disappeared into light particles. Perhaps realizing I stopped attacking, Kada came out of the water while grinning. 

The water protected him by covering his body. Since it had the ability to divert the bullet, that meant my Five-seveN would be useless as well. However, that meant that I just needed to make another plan. Fortunately, I was the one on top. 

I tried to change my aramments by opening the TSS, but Kada moved to intercept me 

“~~~~~,~~~~~,~~~~, Whirlpool dance – Aqua dance!” 

A water-type magic I’d seen somewhere before was chanted. Water in the shape of circular saws flew at me while spinning. 

“Tch!” 

I moved away from the top rail and descended backwards. The blades cut not only into the railing but also the rock itself. It destroyed it.  As I was descending Kada used that opening to cast another spell.

“~~~~, ~~~~, ~~~~,~~~~~,~~, Tide Supremacy!” 

The seawater in the lower layer converged. It collected into a single column of water that quickly became a mass of violence that was released. It pierced the top level and the floor I stood upon crumbled. The water did not stop there and swung toward the cave dwellings as if it were a massive sword of water. 

It was a tremendous spell! 

I evaded it by sliding, jumping to the side, and then wall-running on the inside wall. The water came down, chasing after me while shaving the rock wall. The magic effect was long… It didn’t look to be subsiding immediately. The water beneath Kada was feeding the torrent. So… It seemed the only way to stop it was to attack Kada. 

I held the rifle in both hands, turning to run down the wall and towards his position. From there, I slid out of my run and rotated my body 360 degrees at a position near the wall. When Kada became visible, I pulled the trigger the moment the reticle was over him. 

I didn’t know if I landed the shot, but I reloaded and once again shot at him, which was none as a one-turn shot jump shot, or a trick shot. 

By the time I landed at the bottom, the huge column of water scattered and sea water poured everywhere. With the momentum of landing, I shifted into a kneeling position while sighting in and catching Kada’s body. It was in the water and a large hole in his abdomen and both his right foot and tight had been blown away. 

However, the wounded parts were shining faintly as the tentacles of water that caught the blow to his right foot shined a bit out. 

“Hey, bone bastard… W-Who the hell are you? You’re not a normal undead.” 

Kada’s face appeared out of the water as he spat out blood with hateful eyes that stared at me. I ignored the question and squeezed the trigger when I saw his bare face. The water covered it as the bullet flew. It was aimed for his forehead but ended up piercing his cheek instead. It diverted it… But its power was weakening. 

I opened the TSS and selected a surekill firearm to replace my current one. 

“Who am I, you ask? I already told you. I am the one who will guide you to the deep sea’s bed. Requiem’s bell rings, and you will become seaweed in the ocean soon.” 

“Ha! No matter how many times you release you magic, you won’t be able to break my [Water Flow Operation]!” 

While both of us tried to buy time, I changed my weapons as he started to heal himself. It was unfortunate that I was the first to be ready. Light particles converged before me as the supply box appeared and I lifted a large weapon out of it – a GE M134 Minigun. 

It was a portable weapon made by General Electric Company of the United States. An electric gatling gun that shoots 7.62 x 51mm rounds with six rotating barrels. The maximum speed was 100 shots per second, and its belt capacity was 4,000 rounds. It was one of the higher cost items in VMB. 

Originally, this weapon would be mounted to a helicopter, and it was not a weapon an individual could carry. But due to the assistance of the power suit, and it being a game, it could ignore the issues of weight and the power source. I held the M134 in my left hand while I gripped the trigger in my right, aligned my crosshair on Kad, who was unable to grasp the situation.

“Let’s see if you can prevent this barrage!” 

I pulled the trigger. The barrels whirred to life as they rotated at a high rate of speed. Then the muzzle was dyed red as if it breathed fire. Kada tried to deflect the rounds again, but the storm of bullets ignored the water flow. It broke through the water protecting him and blew him to tiny pieces.
