Another World Returner’s Game Streaming

27 – Nightfall – Joint Broadcast (3)

Originally, a confrontation between a swordsman and a shooter is likely to lead to a very ugly and boring scene.

In fact, it is unavoidable when viewed objectively.

Because the swordsman’s specialty is close combat, where he closes the distance to the opponent as much as possible, and the shooters practiced effective suppression from a distance as a virtue while widening the distance from the enemy as much as possible.

Since each other’s fields of expertise are clearly different, each other’s fights naturally have no choice but to become a chase in the form of chasing and being chased.

If the swordsman gets close to the shooter within a certain range, he wins. Conversely, if the shooter doesn’t give the swordsman enough space, he loses.

Such fights are never glamorous, and there is not much to see.

It’s a suffocating fight between the parties, but from a third person’s point of view, it’ll just look like they’re playing tag with each other.

But.

The current battle between Eugene and Ecclesia was never like that.

Kaaang-!

Somewhere, a sound like tapping metal resonates endlessly.

Steel collides with steel in the air, sparks are constantly flying.

That is the surest proof that each is pointing a weapon at the other with the intention of killing each other.

But at the same time, it was by no means a sound that would occur in a normal battle between a swordsman and a gunner.

Chaeeng-!

That’s right. Currently, the two of them were fighting face-to-face at such close range that they could feel each other’s breath.

Ekklesia ignored the iron rule of a shooter that a swordsman should never be allowed a certain distance, and was swinging the two horse guns in his hands like twin swords.

In a way, it could be said that it was a movement itself in which no root could be found.

But at the same time, the movement unfolding in Ekklesia’s hand was terribly graceful, so it seemed infinitely free.

The horse gun held in Ekklesia’s hand spewed fire at Eugene’s vitals from a very close range, and even acted as a shield to block the sword he wielded.

That’s why Eugene was in a position where he couldn’t be vigilant for a moment in this battle where he had a one-sided advantage in a close battle with the shooter at zero distance.

He knew all too well how powerful the bullets fired from the horse gun were.

Even in the state where the body was corrected by the holy sword, he barely succeeded in spilling the magic bullet, so if that bullet hits the vital part in the current state, Eugene would at least die instantly.

That’s why Eugene was engrossed in taking Ekklesia’s attack carefully, using his ‘combat foreknowledge’ as much as possible, just as he did when he was fighting Ariandel.

As long as each of the opponent’s attacks had a strong chance of inflicting a critical blow on this side, it was because there was no hasty attempt to attack from this side.

Ekklesia also didn’t have the determination to break through Eugene’s iron wall and put a bullet through his head, so he was focusing on keeping his opponent in check by swinging his horse gun as if he were dancing.

In this way, the two of them were continuing a kind of sluggish state in which each other thought they were noticing each other.

However, it did not feel that way to viewers who were watching the duel between the two in real time.

– Wow, it’s really crazy, today’s weather hahahaha

– It feels like the two of them are not fighting, but dancing a waltz with each other…

– Today, my eyes are really good hahahahaha I ordered chicken in advance and I am the winner hahahahaha

– Actually, how did the two of you come together in advance? How can the sum be so tight that it’s not even a movie?

From the viewer’s point of view, this duel could be said to be the crystallization of splendor.

Because both Ekklesia, who uses two horse guns to show off a Gunkata that looks like something out of an action movie, and Eugene, who fights against him with only a single half-broken straight sword, are beings that have easily surpassed human limits!

Kaaang-!

“Wow!”

And after a fierce battle, it was Ecclesia that took a step back first and the only side was none other than Ecclesia.

The reason was simple.

For some reason, Ekklesia was only shooting magic bullets with a very honest trajectory, and because of that, Eugene was able to easily deflect the bullets with his sword by using his ‘combat foreknowledge’.

The saying that you can easily block a one-hit killer attack is in line with the saying that you can quickly catch the clue of a counterattack against the opponent.

As a result of the snowball rolling, Eugene was able to take the initiative throughout the battle with Ecclesia.

‘I won.’

Watching Ekklesia retreat back again while struggling to block the sword he wielded, Eugene felt confident in his victory.

As it is, if there are no other variables, he will win unconditionally.

Yujin thought so, he was thinking about whether he would finish it soon.

Clap-!

Ekklesia suddenly took out a bullet from her bosom and pushed it into his horse gun.

– Huh??? Load???

– Why are you loading the magic bullet???

– Could it be that you’ve run out of magic now?

Viewers who saw Ekklesia’s act of loading bullets into the magic bullet expressed their doubts as one.

A magic bullet gun is a weapon with a mechanism that shoots bullets using the user’s magic as a material.

In other words, it also meant that the process of ‘loading’, which can be said to be the most decisive weakness of a weapon called a gun, was unnecessary.

But now, you’re giving up the biggest advantage of the magic bullet gun? Why?

At the time when the question was popping up in everyone’s head, Ekklesia aimed the bullet-loaded horse gun at Eugene without hesitation.

Of course, Eugene, who predicted all the directions and trajectories with his ‘combat foreknowledge’, blocked the bullet with his sword one step ahead of him-

[The ‘Weapon Destruction Bullet’ hit the direct sword.]

[The durability of the straight sword has reached its limit.]

Kwajik-!

“… !”

The next moment, the straight sword Yujin was holding broke in half.

Unable to overcome the power of the bullets fired by Ecclesia, the sword body eventually collapsed.

– Wow hahahaha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

– Somehow, even though Somajwa kept blocking his attacks, there was no change in his expression hahahahaha

– As expected Eccle, you had a plan…

– Ekklesia! Ecclesia! Ecclesia! Ecclesia! Ecclesia!

‘Could it be that the reason I’ve been shooting bullets in an easy-to-block trajectory so far is to break my straight sword at the crucial moment?’

Eugene clicked his tongue inwardly.

He should have noticed something when Ekklesia suddenly did the act of loading his horse gun.

‘Chance!’

Meanwhile, seeing that Eugene’s straight sword is broken in half, Ecclesia mobilizes all of her magical energy that she has been saving up until now and pours out a baptism of magic bullets.

Eugene tried to evade as much as possible, but in her current body condition without the body correction of her holy sword, there was a limit to avoiding all the magic bullets.

Poo-Wak!

In the end, the balance of victory is tipped.

“Kuu!”

The bullet fired by Ekklesia eventually penetrates Eugene’s right thigh.

‘Combat Foresight’ read the trajectory, but for a moment, Eugene’s body couldn’t keep up with the foresight.

And the moment Ekklesia struck Eugene, her comment window went into chaos.

– Could this be Eccle’s reverse angle???

– Originally, it is Jeongbae that Somajwa wins hahahahaha What is a twist drama hahahahaha

– No, if you just fought with the holy sword earlier, you would have won easily; For no reason, I was holding a straight sword that was broken in half… ㅠㅠ

Almost all viewers were expecting an easy victory for Eugene, but everyone has high hopes for the unexpected development.

‘This is the end!’

Watching Eugene stumble for a moment, Ecclesia loaded the bullet she had been saving until the last moment into the horse gun.

The name of the bullet is ‘Magic Bullet Shooter’.

Boasting three times the speed and destructive power of normal magic bullets, the number of Ekklesia’s trumpets prepared for use against Eugene.

Because of its speed, it is close to impossible to see and avoid it, and even that Ariandel is one of the strongest blows in Nightfall, killing you instantly if hit properly!

Clap-!

In that moment, Ekklesia aimed her gun at Eugene without hesitation.

Eugene also activated ‘Battle Foreknowledge’ again and only measured the timing inside.

He hasn’t given up on this fight yet.

Even if you get a hole in your thigh, lose your weapon and end up empty-handed, it’s okay.

Eugene had a history of winning victories in the end even though he faced enemies under harsher conditions on a battlefield that was more unfavorable than this.

So the odds of him winning this duel are by no means zero!

Kiririck-!

The moment right before Ekklesia pulls the trigger on Eugene.

Eugene’s own eyes twinkled.

‘Now!’

Yam Demon Sword, Zanya!

The next moment, Eugene’s body disappeared from Ekklesia’s sight.

“Ah… ?”

For a moment, Ekklesia couldn’t hide her bewilderment at what happened so suddenly.

How can a human body disappear without any sign or trace?

– Back! Back!

– Noona, where are you looking from earlier!

She was already one step too late, although the viewers who noticed her situation before her shouted at her with her comments.

Before he knew it, Eugene was standing behind her on the back of her ecclesia, aiming for her.

“… !”

Ekklesia, who finally grasped Eugene’s location, hurriedly turned his gun to his back.

But it was already too late to fire the magic bullets.

Eugene had already reached a position close to zero with Ecclesia.

If each other’s body is in close contact with each other to this extent, it is difficult to even aim at the other person, let alone shoot a bullet.

The only way to deliver effective blows to each other at this distance is taijutsu.

And as if she had been aiming for it from the beginning, her Eugene stretches out her own hands towards her!

‘Don’t look at me!’

Although not at the level of an expert, Ekklesia had learned self-defense and several bare-handed martial arts from a very young age.

So even if you can’t overwhelm Eugene from the front, it’s possible enough if you can counter him and spread the distance behind him-

“…Huh?”

But the next moment, Ekklesia realized that his own body was upside down and left and right before he even knew it.

‘Nonsense!’

For just one moment, Eugene’s hand touched her shoulder very lightly.

And with that alone, Eugene neutralized her in an instant like this.

It was really absurd. Is this really possible for humans?

Kwaaang!

Eugene’s Ecclesia floated in the air for a split second, and she thrust her fist straight into her stomach.

“Oops!”

– Oh… Everything I see hurts

– Look at the lack of mercy towards Somajwa Eccle hahahahaha

Due to the system of Nightfall, her fist attacks do not do much damage, so the amount of her stamina she lost was not much.

But it’s painful. And it hurts so much

She learned several martial arts and even she was used to pain, she was in such a great pain that she could not breathe for a moment.

Eugene approaches Ekklesia, who eventually collapses on the ground and breathes heavily for her.

Her leisurely steps, as if her own victory had already been confirmed.

In an instant, heat rises in her head.

When I lost, even if I had a grudge against losing, I was going to aim my gun at that human, saying that I would somehow get a shot-

“Are you looking for this?”

Clap-!

In Eugene’s hand, she was holding a horse gun that should have been in her hand.

“Ha…”

Looking at that, a laugh leaked from Ekklesia’s mouth.

When did he take that horse gun from himself?

I didn’t care. You can be proud that you didn’t make any mistakes and that you used all your strength.

But I still lost.

It would be a lie if I said there was no resentment over the defeat.

But beyond that, awe for her opponent embraces her body.

Yes. From the beginning, he was a different being from the likes of her.

Like the mudfish living in the stream and the dragon flying in the sky are incomparable beings.

“…This is the real genius…”

After realizing that fact, Ekklesia was finally able to admit it.

“I… Lost.”

The fact that today’s duel is her complete defeat.
