Chapter 31 What do you want me to do (Part 1)
“So cute”
“What?”
“It’s nothing”
It looks like Cha Ji-hye is flustered
“Didn’t you just say so?”
“I didn’t say anything”
With a business like tone, she cuts it off
“… Well, alright”
She definitely said so
I reassuet position
My shoulder, with the butt of the rifle pushed against it, is a little uncoun and it feels aard I’et more comfortable as I use it
I take tentative aim from the 250-meter mark
Sylph is sitting on htly adjusts the rifle
-Meow
It al er
Tang-!!
A loud and piercing gunshot! The heavy recoil hits my shoulder hard
‘That was surprising’
If I didn’t have the physical buffer entry level 4, ht have been shaken froet is hit and faints over backwards
“How is it?”
“I was surprised cause the recoil was harder than I thought it would be”
“It uses a 762 mm bullet It is definitely more powerful than the 556 mm you probably used in the army Would you like to shoot more?”
“Yes”
“At 100, 150, and 250 ets will appear”
With that, Cha Ji-hye pushes a red button on the wall
Bbik-
With a weird sound, the target practice starts
At 100 et stands up
Tang!
Hit in the center and it falls over
And then a target appears at 250 meters Well, no problem
Tang-
Without effort, the target falls backwards
I shoot all 5 bullets and Cha Ji-hye hands me another clip with 5 bullets Like I learned earlier, I load the clip and reshoot
Tang! Tang! Tang!
How
Click
Huh? What noise is this?
I look behinda smartphone
As I look at her with a confused face, she gets slightly flustered and tells me
“We, we don’t have any inforather so?”
“Yes, of course”
From then on she openly films Sylph with her so-lucky like it hen she was at the café and ordered all those sweets
…She must like Sylph She could’ve just said so
I whisper to Sylph
“Want to assume a more cute position?”
-Meow
Froes into a cat model
She wraps the rifle in her tail to ai from the rifle like a koala bear Click, click, the ca how she likes it, it irl hates a cat, yep
Cha Ji-hye is all excited taking pictures when all of a sudden, she asks
“I would like to ask one thing”
“What is it?”
“Do you have to shoot the gun?”
“…What?”
“It doesn’t seeun”
“Oh, uh…”
I become blank
Yeah, why do I have to shoot?
Sylph aims for me anyway I only decide where to shoot and when to pull the trigger
“Sylph, you want to shoot?”
Sylph nods her head and takes over the Mosin-Nagant from me
Cha Ji-hye rushes over and gives up a 5 bullet clip But why is she respectfully give it with both hands? Sylph uses her tail to take the clip
Click, click
With skilled movements, she puts in the clip and aims What, what, like a veteran soldier! Veteran cat warrior?
“A…”
Without even realizing her thought ca pictures
With adorable front paws and tail, Sylph lifts the Mosin-Nagant and aims It’s a relatively seriously expression but even that is cute The upgrade from puss in boots!
“No start”
Cha Ji-hye pushes the red button again
The 150-ets up
Tang!
Sylph shoots without restraint
100 meter, 250 et up After shooting all 5 bullets, she swiftly changes another clip that Cha Ji-hye hands her and continues to shoot
Tang!
The 250-et falls onto its back It was extre speed were both way faster than me
“She’s like Simo Häyhä”
Cha Ji-hye has an enraptured expression on her face and mumbles
“Who is that?”
“He is a sniper from Finland that shot 100 people in 542 days Siant as well”
(TN: From Wiki: Simo “Simuna” Häyhä nicknamed “White Death”by the Red Ar a Finnish M/28-30 rifle (a Finnish variant of the Mosin–Nagant rifle) in the Winter War, he is reported as having killed 505 hest recorded number of confirmed sniper kills in any major war)
“Oh, I see”
To be re cute Sylph, I wonder if this woman has normal sensibilities
But I get it, Sylph is the best shooter
Without even the slightest delay, she shoot-shoots the targets down, neveronce!
-Meow?
Sylph turns back to look atme if she has to continue
Click, click, its loud Camera sounds
-Meow!
Sylph returns the gun to limpse of disappointment passes by Cha Ji-hye’s face
She asks me, with her normal hard expression returned
“How is the spirit summons consumed?”
“Hm, I don’t know I’ll check”
I call on the board and check to see how much of Sylph’s summons time is left
“Compared to when I shoot, it uses et rid of the recoil of the shot But that being said, it isn’t a huge difference”
“Then we don’t really need you… I mean, I think there’s no need for you to shoot”
“Just now you were almost about to say I’m not needed, huh?”
“No”
“Yes, you did”
“No”
“… Fine, let’s say you didn’t But if Sylph holds the gun, e fight, ill I do?”
