Obscure Op: Survive As Fallen Noble With Gunsmith Skill In Eroge World-Chapter 68 - 67 - Night Ambush

"Ah, I see..."

"This is going faster than planned," I muttered after seeing the war proposal given by Amelia.

Different from the war proposals I could have chosen, the war proposal given by Amelia at this time was labeled "EMERGENCY EVENT".

There's no reason to turn down a sudden event like this, right?

This is the same as the previous Event, but with small difference...

This event takes place outside the eroge world's scenario.

In other words, it's an event that only affects NPCs in this world, not the main character.

With a half-baked heart, I glanced at the spoils of war, and seeing the only things I could get at the moment.

Only Amelia Tokens and small EXP. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

It wasn't very appealing to use all my might to hunt down bandits hiding in plain sight.

My hand immediately pressed the screen of my smartphone, and a question mark appeared next to the number of bandits to be hunted down.

"Ugh, this is troublesome," I grumbled without showing any signs of annoyance after Amelia's war proposal situation activated itself.

Without a button to reject Amelia's emergency war proposal, I took out my pistol and pointed it at the darkness of the night that Chitose was staring at.

Without saying a word about the danger surrounding us, Chitose immediately dashed off and left behind her wooden rack, whose containing her three different types of katana.

The attack stance performed by Chitose is a fast-type attack that I understand in the game. It is a wide area attack skill used by Chitose and can be used to effectively paralyze her target.

For now, I let Chitose take over the first attack as the opening strike.

"Doctor Portia, it looks like we can't just sit here and relax."

"Something happened, and I have a bad feeling about it."

"Something big and familiar to me, an attempt by the nobles to rebel against the King, who wanted to kill him far from the Royal Palace."

As I said that sentence, I could see the flash of an arrow shooting towards me, my body's reflex at that moment was to duck and let the arrow shoot past me.

Ctaanngg!!

However, Melissa moved in front of me to protect me from the surprise arrow attack from the darkness of the night.

"Turn off the magic lantern we are using and get into the Humvee to take cover for a while."

"Do it quickly!" I ordered by giving directions to Liliana and Vivian.

Ctaasss!!

Bruusshh!!

Taaanngg!!

Doctor Portia and Yua Mikami quickly turned off the magic lantern that served as a source of light at night. With the sudden darkness upon us, my eyes began to adjust, and I slowly moved toward the Humvee parked nearby.

My vision was getting better, and Melissa was now holding her pistol and throwing knives.

In this peak of darkness, Melissa had several advantages as a Master Assassin to sneak and stab from behind.

Slowly, by slowly, I escorted Liliana and Vivian into the Humvee.

Kraaanngg...

As the Humvee doors opened, Liliana and Vivian immediately got inside.

"Don't open the door to anyone you don't know!" I said, giving a message to my stepfamily.

"I-I know about that!"

"We will leave this matter to you, Hans!"

Liliana and Vivian seemed to understand my poin to protecting them.

I have lost the family of the body I am currently possessing, if I lose them too, then my survival so far will be in vain.

Braanngg!!

By closing the Humvee's doors and locking them, I hoped it was strong enough not to be broken when get magical attacks.

"Master Hans!!" Beside me, Melissa handed me the HK-416 I had shown off earlier.

"Thank you, Mell. Let's hunt them quietly using this," I said as I handed the pistol suppressor to Melissa.

That was the suppressor attached to Hoshino, and in this kind of emergency, I didn't have time to copy a large number of pistol suppressors.

"Doctor Portia, are you going to join us in clearing out these bandits, or are you going to take cover with Yua Mikami?" I asked Doctor Portia, who was already prepared with a small sword and several bottles of dangerous-looking potions on her belt.

"Don't worry about me, Hans. Even though I'm a Doctor, I also received training to fight as a female Knight. I can fight in close combat or help you with the potion bottles I carry," said Doctor Portia while showing various potion bottles on her belt.

"You've prepared for the worst, haven't you?"

"Yes, as always, Kitano Mina has also prepared for this bad thing too. But it will be a little too late because she has to protect that troublesome King."

"Then, what about you, Yua Mikami?" My eyes fell on Yua Mikami, who was now wearing gloves, and her sharp eyes were impatient to hit someone.

"I'll join in the close combat too, My Lord!" Yua Mikami replied with a wide smile.

"We don't know what's really going on, so make sure we hit the true enemy."

"Un! I understand!" Yua Mikami replied, starting to smile like a nun about to punish someone in the harshest way possible.

After our preparations were complete, I could hear the sound of approaching footsteps.

From behind the Humvee, I peeked and saw Chitose, who had returned with her katana covered in fresh blood. The darkness of the night were unable to cover up what Chitose had done. With that blood-stained katana, our eyes met.

"I'll be happy to help."

"Just think of it as my thanks for sharing dinner with me."

A cold and seemingly indifferent voice was heard.

Even though Chitose is one of the icy heroines who will be melted by the main character, I didn't feel like there was a chance to me to see her smile cutely.

Is this the fate of an NPC who is not connected to the main storyline?

If that's the case, I can't complain about it.

"You're welcome, I'll prepare myself first before the situation gets out of control," I said as I walked into my stepfamily's refugee tent.

Using the flashlight accessory attached to the HK-416, I quickly went inside and grabbed my backpack and a plastic box containing 9mm rounds. Luckily, I had already loaded some rounds into the magazine and was ready to use them.

"All that hard work reloading is going to be used in an instant, huh?" I grumbled in an annoyed tone.

My hands immediately grabbed my backpack and plastic box, and I immediately rushed out of my stepfamily's refugee tent.

Tap...

Tap...

With heavy footsteps, I quickly made my way to the Humvee's rear trunk and placed these valuables in the back of the Humvee. I also turned off the flashlight attached to the HK-416, just in case anyone from a distance saw us. I knew we were being watched, and the arrow attack was a warning sign from bandits. The good news was that Chitose had already resolved that issue.

"So, what are we going to do, Hans?" asked Doctor Portia as she looked at the important equipment I was securing.

"It's obvious, isn't it? To clean up the bandits who are disguised as royal knights," I replied while handing her a copy of the magazine containing the bullets.

"That will take a lot of time."

"I know, but it would be quite helpful to reduce their potential for surprise attacks. Help me by carrying this," while answering Doctor Portia's question, I had pocketed some magazines that I could carry for my Glock 17 and HK-416.

With such limited bullets, I hope there aren't too many bandits hiding around us.

Tap...

Tap...

My ears picked up the footsteps of someone running toward my stepfamily's refugee camp. From the sound alone, I could tell it wasn't just one person.

"KUHAHAHA!! COME OUT, DOCTOR PORTIA!"

"DON'T BE TO SHAMEFUL BY HIDING IN A SCRATCHY PLACE LIKE THIS."

"WE ALREADY KNEW YOU WERE IN A PLACE LIKE THIS, DOCTOR PORTIA!"

I glanced at Doctor Portia, who seemed to have invited an unknown guest to this place.

"Is this man an acquaintance of yours?" I asked Doctor Portia as I peered out from behind the Humvee at the group of men in royal knight armor covered in blood.

"Nope..."

Seeing them all in a hurry to put on the royal knight armor, there were some parts that were not neat and did not fit their body size.

It was clear that this royal knight was a fake.

My hand immediately pulled the HK-416's safety pin up and pulled back the slide to load the chamber with bullet. Luckily, I had time to turn off the flashlight attached to the HK-416, so our position in the darkness wouldn't be seen by these foolish bandits.

Ctaakkk...

With the sound of a bullet entering the chamber, I immediately aimed the HK-416's barrel at one of the bandits entering my stepfamily's refugee camp. Unaware that we were behind the Humvee, they were foolish enough to fight in the dark.

Melissa and Chitose had their weapons ready and were waiting for my signal.

Taking a deep breath, I immediately pulled the trigger of the HK-416.

Peessshh!!

Peeesshh!!

Peessshh!!

The bullets fired from the HK-416 feel quiet thanks to the suppressor installed at the end. There was only a flash of fire that was pushed by the gas and trapped in the suppressor.

Peeesshh!!

Peeessshh!!

The shots I fired were not focused on their heads, and several bandit screams were heard, triggering the movements of Melissa and Chitose, who had already prepared their weapons.

Chitose, with her precision attacks, immediately cut through the darkness of the night, with the sound of her katana swinging through the bandits.

Meanwhile, Melissa leaped high into the darkness and quickly entered my stepfamily's refugee tent to deal with some of the bandits who had entered.

Peessshhh!!

Peeessshhh!!

My hand was still busy pressing the trigger, which ignited a spark in the barrel of the HK-416.

At this close range, a pistol would have been more suitable, but I used it as a secondary weapon because switching to another weapon in a battle is much more effective than reloading.

"ARGH!"

"H-Hey, what's wrong? UGH!!"

"OOGHHKK!!"

"W-What's going on?"

While I was shooting at the bandits around my stepfamily's refugee tent, I almost got hit by a second arrow.

Ctaanngg!!

Luckily, it hit the Humvee's window, and my aim immediately shifted in the arrow's trajectory path. By spraying several bullets and circling the arrow's trajectory path, I hoped one of them would hit the bandit shooting at me from a distance.

"Damn..."

"This fucking bandits!" I grumbled as I pointed the barrel of my HK-416 at the remaining bandits.

Without thinking about anything else, I am killing them all, and I immediately shot to use up the remaining bullets in the HK-416 magazine.
