The Author's POV

Chapter 346

346 Beginning of the assault[4]

"…well fuck."

Staring at the barrel of the gun right in front of me, the world around me froze.

Despite of the fact that I had a gun barrel aimed at my head, I was calm. My eyes paused on the hole of the narrow barrel where I could see a small energy blast forming at the very end of it. Upon closer look, I noticed a small bundle of spherical mana agglomerating towards the very end of the barrel, forming a small pink ball.

Not taking my eyes away from the ball, the chip inside of my head started processing at full power, and all sorts of different scenarios materialized inside of my head.

All the scenarios had different survivability probabilities.

Some high, some low.

All the processing and analyzing happened within a short second, and before the ball had fully formed, I already knew what to do.

'…and I really wanted to conserve my mana.'

In the end, after simulating the many scenarios inside of my head, I decided to go with the most efficient method.

Although I really didn't want to do this as I had to conserve as much mana as possible, I was left with no choice but to do this.

Slowly lifting my head, I inwardly muttered.

'The one.'

The moment my words faded, the duergar standing opposite to me abruptly came to a halt as the hand that held onto the gun shook. The energy beam that was forming at the end of the barrel suddenly twisted and disappeared into the air like smoke.

Calmly placing my left hand on the gun, I moved it slightly. Then, leaning my head backward, I head-butted the duergar right in the face.

"Huek!"

Thud—

Falling butt first onto the ground, the duergar let out a strange sound and let go of the gun.

Without giving him any chance to recover, I stomped my foot on the ground.

Spurt—

A gory scene appeared in my vision as blood and pieces of flesh covered the ground below me.

Unemotionally staring at the scene below me, deactivating the effects of the one, I walked towards my sword and picked it up.

Tapping on my bracelet using my left hand, taking a potion out from my dimensional space, I uncapped the lid and chugged it down.

Gulp—

"Haaa…"

Downing the whole potion in one go, my shoulder slowly started to heal. Unfortunately, the process was not a quick one as my whole shoulder had almost gotten blown away.

It was so bad that I may as well have had my whole arm amputated. At this point, it was practically useless.

According to my estimates, I would need at least a couple of hours for it to fully heal.

Normally I wouldn't have had a problem with this, but that was on normal occasions. Unfortunately for me, this was no longer a normal occasion.

With everything that was going on, time was of the essence, and the fact that my dominant hand was no longer working was a cause of concern.

'To think that things have gone wrong this early into the plan…'

From how I practically lost my right arm to how I used more mana than I had originally anticipated.

Things were not going as smoothly as I had anticipated.
