Upon recognizing that the calamity floating in the sky was Heltic Anakhior, I sighed repeatedly inwardly and immediately spoke to everyone.
"Eshil, Yoo Sangah, Shin Yuseung, please help over there with Nouvelle Vague, the force of the King of Wanderers, and Jung Heewon to assist with evacuating people."
At my words, the three agreed, and soon Yoo Sangah quickly spread Arachne's web widely in the air to block the beams falling from the sky, while Shin Yuseung and Eshil helped Nouvelle Vague evacuate people.
"Kiyohime, Lilith, Meltryllis, handle the rampaging monsters and the falling building debris."
At my instruction, the three agreed, and Meltryllis, in a state of fear, absorbed the rampaging monsters who had lost their reason with Melt Virus, Kiyohime turned the collapsing building debris into ash with flames, and Lilith created Lilins with magic to deal with the monsters.
"Melusine, you handle Anakhior for a bit—...and she's gone."
Before I could finish speaking, Melusine flew towards Anakhior at high speed.
"Hey, Kim Dokja, you handle yourself!"
After saying that, I roughly set Kim Dokja down nearby and immediately started rummaging through the shop.
'Where is it,... where was it.... I saw it before...,..'
Only about 5 minutes had passed since I started searching the shop, but already the surroundings were being devastated by the fight between Melusine and Anakhior.
At least the others were moving, so there were no casualties...,,
'I'm going crazy..... where the hell is it...,'
[Yuseong, are you looking for that thing in the corner over there?]
'Huh? In the corner?....Ah! Found it! Thanks, Maiuri...'
I looked at the item Maiuri pointed to and immediately checked their information.
Rh X Blood Type Ampoule—Stock:1
Blueprint: Unchained Bullet—Stock:1
First-generation Rapture Core—Stock:10
I immediately purchased the three items.
[You have purchased the Blueprint: Unchained Bullet, First-generation Rapture Cores, and Rh X Blood Type Ampoule.]
[A total of 500,000 coins have been consumed.]
My precious 500,000 coins evaporated in an instant, but for now, this was the only way to defeat Anakhior without killing him.
[Will you use the Blueprint: Unchained Bullet?]
"YES"
[You have used the Blueprint: Unchained Bullet.]
[You have acquired the Unchained Bullet crafting method.]
Unchained Bullet Crafting Method
First-generation Rapture Core (1/1)
Rh X Blood Type (1/1)
Unidentified Bullet (1/1)
[Will you craft the Unchained Bullet?]
"YES"
[Crafting Unchained Bullet.]
[You have acquired the item Unchained Bullet.]
Simultaneously with that message, the crafted Unchained Bullet appeared in my hand.
Click!
Using E.G.O Magic Bullet, I immediately loaded the Unchained Bullet into the musket of the magic bullet.
[This bullet is not a magic bullet.]
[It receives only the minimum correction from the Stigma E.G.O Magic Bullet.]
[It receives only the minimum guaranteed hit effect from the Stigma E.G.O Magic Bullet.]
[Power is greatly reduced.]
[Destructive power is greatly reduced.]
[This is not the correct way to use the Stigma.]
[Burden increases immensely.]
At the same time, blood flowed from my eyes and nose, and several times more magic power than usual drained away.
'Hoo....it doesn't matter....after all, this bullet....is not to kill someone....but to save someone....'
Then, with trembling hands, I firmly gripped the musket and slowly aimed at the sky.
Kwa-gwa-gwa-gwa-gwang!!!!
At the place I aimed, Anakhior and Melusine were fighting without giving an inch.
'I realize this belatedly, but Melusine is amazing....'
Even though Melusine was still suffering from the penalty of reduced stats, she was not only fighting on par with Anakhior, who had descended as the Calamity of the Denying Mirror, but was gradually overwhelming him. However, seeing the sparks of probability flickering around Melusine, it seemed like something would happen if left alone.
'Remember, the opportunity is only once.....'
I kept that in mind several times, carefully aiming at Anakhior with utmost caution, and
[Melusine uses the skill Innocent Arondight.]
[Anakhior uses the skill Glass Slipper Full Contact.]
And finally, at the moment when two lights from the sky were about to hit each other,
"E.G.O Magic Bullet, Zeroth Bullet, Bullet of Liberation!"
The third light shot up from the ground raced through the void and finally pierced through the glass slipper.
