I see it, the safe house.
And it's... burning...
But how? Does a lycan have enough intelligence to start a fire?
[Is that the safe house?] Claus
[I think so. That's the only building big enough to accommodate the entire villager.] Me
[And it's burning pretty badly. OYYY!! IS ANYONE STILL IN THE BUILDING!!] Claus
[HELPP! WE'RE TRAP IN HERE!] Someone inside
[Claus! Can you break the door?] Me
[I can try] Claus
[Do it! Tonya! Keep your nose open for the lycan!] Me
[I can still smell a dog smell-nya. It must have been close-nya] Tanya
That lycan...
It's trapping the villagers and burning the building. Such a cunning move for a lycan. I thought a lycan shouldn't have that much intelligence.
Where is that thing anyway? Tanya still smells its presence so it's not yet running from here.
Just show yourself here and be done with it!
[AWWOOO]
[There! On the roof!] Tanya
[Tanya come with me! Claus! Just focus on evacuating all villagers. We'll try to distract the lycan as long as we can.] Claus
[Be safe you two!] Claus
BANG! BANG!
It running around jumping from roof to roof avoiding the bullet.
So it already learns that much from our last encounter?
BANG! BANG! BANG!
[My arrow can't hit it-nya!] Tanya
[Just keep on it. We need to make sure it's not disturbing Claus's job.] Me
BANG! BANG! BANG! Clank.
I finished my first mag and nothing hit.
Loading station summon: mag reload, .45 ACP - Jacketed hollow point!
Let's see what happens if we use a higher-speed bullet.
BANG! BANG! BANG!
Instinct skill improved: Weapon skill - Handgun Lv2!
Hits! But figure it didn't do much either except for a hit to the head.
Let's use a different arsenal this time.
[Tanya! Handle it for a while, I need to take another magic tool from my box!] me
[So that's inside that box-nya? Leave it to me-nya!] Tanya
The tale has been illicitly lifted; should you spot it on Amazon, report the violation.
Weapon summon: Remington model 870
Loading station summon 12 gauge 00 buckshot!
Let's see if you can avoid a lot of small projectile coming at you.
KABLAM! Schlick.
KABLAM! Schlick.
[Kaing!]
Instinct skill added: Weapon skill - Shotgun Lv1!
Rustle, rustle, crash!
[What's that-nya? It's even louder than before-nya] Tanya
[Keep your question for later. The lycan fall into that house.] Me
[OYY! Dean, Tanya! I finished evacuating the villager and now they're heading to the south gate for treatment from Jill. What's that boom sound you're all making? Is that your magic, Dean?] Claus
[It is-nya. And it's amazing-nya! That rod he's holding is spitting fire and boom, the lycan fall-nya!]
[It just like Tanya said. But we need to focus on that lycan first. It's currently inside that house.] Me
SLAM!
The door swung open forcefully.
Inside, a familiar black silhouette twitching its ultra-long fingers taking a step by step coming out from the house.
With a little bit of sunlight, you can see some blood trail on its jet black fur but it's not running or dripping like a fresh wound should have done.
So you have a super regeneration ability?
I guess you won't go down easy.
I know that you only lost your consciousness after a .45 ACP hit your head back then.
But you know what? If you lost your consciousness just from a small bullet, then I'm sure you can't handle what's coming for you next.
Loading station summon: Change the round in the chamber into a 12 gauge slug and fill the tube with buckshot.
[Grrrr...] Lycan
'try me!' is that your final word?
KABLAM!!
Drop.
Schlick
A square hit right between the eye and it's falling on its back.
[Is it dead?] Claus
[I'll make sure of it] Me
KABLAM, KABLAM, KABLAM, KABLAM, KABLAM!!
I'm emptying my gun point-blank on its face.
The result? Obliterated.
[It's dead] Me
