8 First Fight, First Death

"Thinking about it, I was surprised the receptionist actually allowed us to do this quest considering our ranks" -Emilia

"Well, he did defeat that C-rank guy after all, so I guess they let us after seeing some ability" -Elfina

"Huh, that generic thug was actually C-rank?" -Emilia (Doesn't have Appraisal)

"Yes, Amy was also surprised after using Appraisal on that thing" -Amy

'Somehow that what's his face got his evaluation gradually lowered?'

"Hahh, anyway I can't believe you drank all my MP potions, even though I had enough to fill up my MP twice"

"Hehe, I was thirsty"

"..." -Elfina

"So, that thing you made, the 'gun' was it called?" -Emilia

"Oh, I didn't really create it, I 'summoned it' kinda"

"You summoned it?" -Emilia

"Yep, I made a skill called 'Catalog Summon' for 300MP and opened 'Catalog Summon - Guns Subcategory Rifles' for another 300MP, apparently I can only opened some things with my current MP, besides it seems like it's quite hard to level up a High Human, even though I killed so many pests"

"You sure you wanna talk about all that when I'm here?" -Elfina

"Ehhh, I guess it's fine! Besides I saw your status, so this makes us even"

"I see..."-Elfina

"Anyway, about that gun summon thingy, can you also give them to others?" -Emilia

"Uhm, yeah, I think I can? though they are not usable without bullets, do you want one?"

"Do you have a smaller one?" -Emilia

"Not in this category but if I buy the pistol section which is 50 MP... done! So, what kind would you like?"

"I don't know anything about guns so you choose" -Emilia

"Hmm, well a 9mm might be good against humans but fantasy monsters... although its still a pistol and it won't be able to take on big enemies...Oh it even has this stuff! this one looks good"

'Although the system created the 'Catalog Summon' skill from my memory so there might be differences to the original'

"Here, btw this thing has some power against normal humans and small animals but don't think of using it on powerful monsters or high ranked humans, okay?"

"...It's pretty"

"Ah! Don't point it towards people casually! Confiscated! You'll get it back after we do a gun safety course!" As you say that you throw the pistol along with all the other stuff in your shadow 'Dark Magic - Shadow'

"...Can I get one too?" -Elfina

"...Which kind?"

"Preferably something not as loud as yours"

"Welp, it's not completely silent but I guess this should do"

"You'll also get it after a safety course"

"Papa, how about mine!"

"Ok, which type?"

"Uhm, can I choose?"

"Here you go" I swipe my hand in the air making a menu appear with 2 categories Rifles and Pistols, Amy goes to pistol and chooses...

"Amy, do you know how to use it?"

"Yes Papa, never point towards your allies, use magic for big enemies"

"Good Girl, now let me show you how to reload, you go like this, yes and then, yes like that and then you can shoot, remember to shoot at the vitals when you want to kill, I'll keep the ammo box in my shadow, oh, the holster for ammo goes like this and... done!"

"Thank You Papa, Can Amy try to shoot?"

"Sure, aim at that tree over there" I say pointing at a tree 20 meters in front

"Ok" Amy aims with her small white pistol

*PA*

*hit*

"Ohh, first try! Nice Amy!"

"Yay, I've been praised by Papa!"

"I want to try too..." -Emilia

"After safety course"

....

As we chat on the way back to the city something pops out of the bushes

"Ha! You fu**** is done!" Thug Boss

"""Ya, Boss tell 'im!!""" Lackeys

"You... what's your name again? whatever, you came to get the rest of the punishment?"

"Heh, so this is the baby boy that done you in Brett, to think you were so weak" -another guy

"Don't underestimate him Rick, he's stronger than he looks!"

"Yeah, yeah whatever, *whistle* wow those are some goods, I can't wait to put my" *BAM*

"M-Ghh, Arghh" Rick tries to clutch his chest where there is now an extra hole

"Rick?" -Brett

"HArgh" As Rick tries to say something blood starts flowing down his mouth and he collapses with a *thunk*

"...Rick" -Brett

I holster my Beretta M9 that I summoned earlier (with 3 magazines and black double holster. Extra bullets are in shadow) and say "You should choose your words more carefully"

"Yo-you! What did you do!?"

"Nothing much, just what I should"

"Yo-u, you ARE!..." As Brett was about to say something he stops and his eyes widen to saucers

"Eh? What's with you?"

"PAPA!" Amy jumps on you pushing you down

"GET DOWN" Elfina does the same to Emilia

*ROARR* As a huge roar is heard, a giant wall of flames engulfs the area where the thugs were, seconds later the flames subside and there is nothing left in that area aside from a black burnt semispherical space 'dug out'

'Oh Sh*t' you turn around in a hurry only to see a giant figure of a bright red Dragon staring you down as it sucks in air preparing for another flame shot

"Free-magic" (magic controlled outside spells) can be cancelled with quadruple the MP used by the attacking party regardless of level of control.

'Appraisal - Specific'

MP:3569/20000

As the dragon wall of flames was merely the dragon spewing flames its considered "free magic" and as the dragon is after all a "King of Fire" he doesn't use that much Mana to begin with, of course he can also use spells but probably due to the fact that controlling Mana with that huge mana pool generally worked just fine, the dragon usually just breathed out fire on his foes.

'But, that won't last, he's sure to change tactics soon. Before that! Magic Creation, Space Magic - Blink'

As I appear beore the dragons eyes, it seems somewhat startled but it soons regains it's arrogance... until I stab it in the eye with a sword made of light.

SYSTEM PROMPT

Skill created > Analyzing... > Skill already existing (reduction applied) > Light Sword Lv.1 created > 300 MP lost (after reduction) > END

*ROAR* the dragon gives an anguished roar with his right eye bleeding profusely, immediately a huge amount of Mana congregates towards the dragon 'Oh, he's using a high ranked spell, it looks like a rank 12 fire spell... he sure looks angry, Magic Creation'

Can mirror any spell or free magic of the attack type back at the attacker, Mana usage double the level of spell as if used with magic level of Mana Mirror, if Mana isn't enough, damage will be taken by the user in form of direct damage to the body (physique) but damage will weaken based on Mana used. Spell/"Free Magic" will be considerably weakened when reflected.

Because of nature of spell Mana usage cannot be lower than double the Mana used by the attacker, unless spell is at max level.

As the surrounding temperature spikes up, you find yourself in a world of Red with a small golden nuance, as you take the hit head on you activate 'Mana Mirror'

The dragon cries towards the sky sorrowfully as he tries to flee in confusion

"Where do you lizard think you're going?! AFTER INJURING PAPA!"

'Virtualization - Space Distortion'

As the dragon flees it hears a voice so cold that it makes it tremble from it's very soul inflicting damage merely by hearing it, before it has time to issue a cry the entire world distorts as Mana is depleting and the dragon feels like his innards are being minced, the space around him cracks open and space distortions appear all around slicing and mincing at the dragon's body and soul, issuing a last low cry the dragon falls into pieces on the ground littering its innards everywhere, painting everything red.

"PAPA" Amy rushes to your side and starts crying on your bloody chest and as you slowly lose consciousness you feel a warm feeling wrapping you up before everything turns to black
