A beautiful elf with long blonde hair sighed as she looked out of the window. If she didn't do something, this beautiful scenery would be destroyed, and everyone here would be killed, including herself. The clock was ticking.

Her name was Serena Frostleaf, the only daughter of the most important person in that kingdom. Simply put, she was an elf Princess.

But she was also a transmigrator.

She still remembered her last day on earth as if it had happened yesterday. It was her break time from school, so she went all out playing games all day. The last game she played was a weird DLC from a game she had been playing for about a year now, [GG: Gunslinger Goddess]. It was fun, but she might have overdone it. At the end of the day, she felt so tired that she immediately went to bed, only to find herself in this new world the next day.

She even did the usual stupid stuff to make sure that she was not dreaming, pinching her own face. And it hurt, obviously.

Suddenly living in this strange world wasn't easy. There were plenty of problems she had to deal with, especially because she noticed that this world was based on the DLC she had played before. And not as a player character, but as the last boss.

It meant that her fate had been decided from the beginning that she would lose eventually, which was not ideal because it just meant that she would die. And dying was bad, as far as she knew.

There was a knock on the door. Serena, who had been lost in thought, was jolted back to reality. She glanced at the door.

"Can I enter, Princess?" a small, cute voice came from outside her room. She knew whose voice it was.

"Sure," Serena said. "You may enter."

"Thank you, Princess," an elf maid said as she entered her room.

Serena gulped as she saw the beautiful silver-haired maid with blue eyes staring at her.

Every elf had this unnatural beauty about them, and since she had transmigrated to this world, Serena had been feeling inferior in front of them. Her sense was still that of a normal human girl from a normal human family, so they all looked so gorgeous to her, even though her face should be above them. After all, she was an elf Princess.

Ha, Elf Princess. That fact still pretty funny to her.

"So what's up?" Serena asked.

"It's about what you asked me before, Princess," the maid said. "The merchant has arrived with the material you requested."

"Really? That's great!" Serena said enthusiastically. "And didn't I tell you not to call me Princess? Just call me by my name."

"I'm sorry, Princess, but I cannot do that."

"But we've been friends for a long time, haven't we?" Serena said. At least, that's what it seemed like to her. As a transmigrator, she didn't know much about their relationship before she taking over this body.

In the game, the enemy last boss called Serena obviously had a named henchman and followers, but when she was playing the game, she didn't really pay attention to it.

That included this elf maid, which was kind of weird, because Serena now felt a strong interest in her. Was it simply because she was now a real person and not just a 3D crappy model?

"I'm sorry, Princess," the maid named Altea said. "I really can't do that."

"Boo, you're not fun."

"Please don't make my job harder, princess," Altea said, looking troubled.

While she enjoyed teasing this elf maid, she didn't like making her make that expression.

"Fine," Serena sighed. "Then let's go take a look at my purchases."

Serena walked out of her room quickly, followed by Altea.

"We can just ask them to come and bring them here," Altea said.

Serena kept walking. "Nah, I'm in the mood to go outside anyway."

Then let's ask some guards to come with us," Altea suggested.

"I'm just going to the nearby town," Serena said. "That's not necessary."

"Still..." Altea's voice trailed off.

Serena understood her worries, though. This Elf kingdom had been in conflict with their neighboring human kingdom called Samalanra. While no humans were living here, it's still possible that some Elves would betray them for safety.

That's why she had been so frustrated. For a while now, she had been trying to find a way to survive this. Her choices were limited, so she was stuck for a while, but then she found out that she still had a skill [Weapon Crafting] from the game.

With guns, she would definitely win this conflict, right? Unfortunately, things weren't as simple as that.

The elves didn't take it well when she showed off her creation.

They thought that her gun was against nature and against their pride as masters of archery.

These old ways of thinking pissed Serena off the most. Sure, skill was the most important thing, but rejecting her gun was like keep using a cheap, beaten-up mouse when you had a choice to swap it with a high-quality mouse with high DPI.

That's just stupid.

And did these guys not want to survive or something?

Not to mention, for the last 100 years, the elf kingdom has lost more than 80% of its land to the kingdom of Samalanra. Yet they think if they keep doing things as they are, they will eventually win?

Serena looked back at the maid who was trying hard to match her step. Altea was not an athletic type, which made her easily get tired. Few of her weaknesses, but that just made her cuter.

"Let's pick them up on the way out then," Serena said as her maid reached her.

What she meant were the twin sisters who were currently working towards becoming her guards. They were supposed to be Serena's childhood friends besides Altea, and they were the only elves who accepted her weapon with an open mind.

"I would prefer you to take real guards with you," Altea said. "But I guess that is better than nothing."

Serena nodded and continued walking. She would most likely find them around the garden close to the gate, where they usually hang out.

As they reached that place, she saw two girls with a similar appearance.

"Oh hey, princess!" One of the twins noticed her and immediately waved at her energetically.

Her name was Talia. Her hair was short, light brown, and put into a sidetails hairstyle. Her sidetails was on the left side.

Meanwhile, the calmer one, Salia, was looking at her and nodding her head in respect. Her sidetails were on her right side.

"Are you going to do something fun again?" Talia asked as she approached Serena.

"Yes, I will show you something interesting," Serena said jokingly.

"Let's go then, princess!" Talia said.

"Hey, you're going to act as her guards. You better do it properly," Altea said.

"Yes, Mom," Talia replied.

"Don't call me that!" Altea said irritably.

Serena giggled as she saw that. The other twin approached from her side, making Serena glance at her.

"So where are we going today? The border again?" Salia asked.

"No, not this time," Serena said. "I'm going to town to pick up some stuff from the merchant."

"What are you buying, princess?" Talia asked, looking interested.

"You will see," Serena said.

They then started to walk, passing by the palace gate and following the way north to the nearby town.

"Anyway, can we make a quick trip to eat something later?" Talia asked.

"Hey, didn't I tell you to do your guard job properly?" Altea complained.

"I'm just asking," Talia said.

Serena laughed. "Sure, after I pick up my stuff, we can do that."

"No, don't pamper her, Princess! Or she will keep being useless!" Altea said.

"I'm not!" Talia protested.

"Really? Then why didn't you bring your bow with you? How do you plan on protecting Princess Serena without it?" Altea challenged.

"I don't need it. I still have the gun that Princess Serena lent me yesterday," Talia said, patting her bag.

Salia nodded in agreement.

"Fine," Altea said. "But I don't think it's a good idea to use it in town."

They arrived at the merchant's shop. The moment Serena entered the shop, the bald owner immediately brought a box that Serena had purchased.

"I apologize I didn't bring this to you immediately, Princess," he said. "I was kind of busy, you see?"

"It's fine," Serena said.

She opened the box. Inside, there were several metals, woods, and stones filled up inside.

"Oh... New material? Are you going to make something again?" Talia asked.

"Yes," Selena smiled.

She summoned her [Weapon Crafting] skill, which made her see a floating menu in front of her that only she could interact with. She selected the crafting menu for a weapon she had been eager to create.

Finally, she could make it.

She clicked the create button, and then the materials she brought started to shine and quickly molded into the weapon she picked.

"It still amazes me how that happens," Altea said. "I've never seen magic like this before."

"Yes, it's pretty interesting," Salia said.

"Wow, that's a lot bigger than before!" Talia said excitedly. "What is that, Princess?"

It's kind of heavy, but Serena holding it in her hand with a wide smile. It was her favorite weapon in the game.

"It's called a sniper rifle," she said. "Let's go to an empty area. I want to try it out."

They found an empty space near the forest and on a tree stump, Serena asked Altea to drop a few apples there. Then they moved a few hundred meters away.

"Uh, princess?" Talia said. "How far are you planning on going?"

"It's fine," Serena said. "This weapon's specialty is range."

"Still, this is already twice as far as the maximum range of a longbow!" Talia exclaimed.

"Around 500 meters, then?" Serena said. "Well, this was a quick test, so this should be enough."

Serena immediately prepared to shoot. Obviously, using a real gun and playing with it on the PC was so different it might have been like night and day. But for some reason, Serena could instinctively do it with no problem.

Probably because of magic? Serena thought to herself. I love magic.

Serena pulled the trigger and boom! One of the apples exploded.

"Wha--you really hit it from this far...?" Altea said, stunned.

"That's amazing, princess!" Talia said. "Can I try it too?"

Salia nodded, also excited but trying to hold back.

Looking at how surprised they were, Serena knew that her weapon was good. Obviously. There was a reason why weapons like swords were obsolete in the modern world. But because of the rejection, sometimes she felt like she was wrong.

Serena passed the gun to Talia, who got so excited that she almost dropped it.

"Careful now," Serena said. "It's a real weapon. You might accidentally hurt someone."

"Right, sorry, princess," Talia said.

Talia and Salia then carefully observed the gun.

Serena smiled. If she could make both of them able to use the gun properly, she might still have a chance of surviving. Like what happened yesterday, when they successfully drove out a bunch of human knights using a couple of her handguns and saved the human prince in the process.

"Princess," Altea called her. Serena glanced at her maid, who gestured toward an elf woman running toward them.

"I'm sorry to bother you, princess," she said. "But the king has been expecting you to come to the meeting. They will decide the fate of that human prince you took in."
