I Became the Companion of the Gods

106 – EP.24 Grand Casino -4

Even though it was an investigation mission, I always had to be prepared to fight the drug cartels inside the casino.

Because we don’t know when or where our identities may be revealed, and we don’t know how they might come after us.

It was necessary to be always alert and ready to fight at any time.

But there was one thing I didn’t understand in the current situation.

Did we really need to fight?

I found out information about the organization smoothly through the bartender.

Yata and Cordo must have participated in the game and took information in their own way.

I was convinced that if we shared and synthesized the information we gathered and followed the steps step by step, we would one day reach the information we wanted.

But, as always, reality betrayed me.

“What the hell is this situation!”

“Sorry! Even the boss of a drug syndicate tried to make her wear panties and failed!”

“No, why are you trying to unmask the final boss?!”

What we have to do is a stealth action game, not a stripping game.

Even so, this unstoppable crow played another game, and finally this division ended, and now the genre has turned into a survival game.

Extreme escape survival where you have to dodge all the shootings of drug gangs in a burning casino.

My heart is pounding, but I didn’t want that.

“Wouldn’t everyone at least once wonder what the color of the underwear of the drug boss today?”

“What crazy! The boss of a drug gang isn’t even a broadcaster, what the heck is that?!”

“Ahahahahaha!!”

Anyway, I don’t think I’ll live my life because of my nasty companion crow.

A mischievous being who always makes matters worse whenever something happens.

Still, she was the one who always gave a helping hand whenever it was important, so I couldn’t hate her again.

The crow that makes it impossible to do this or that is just ironic.

“I guess you did this because you had something on your mind this time too?”

“Well? How about it?”

“I knew very well that I couldn’t tell you straight away.”

Actually, drug gangs or terrorists are not really that threatening enemies.

Just because the location of the Grand Casino is in the south, and the recent movements of divine beasts residing in the south have been unusual.

I refrain from using the power of the divine beast as much as possible, because the divine beast reacts sensitively to the power of the same divine beast.

Thus, if you rampage here, you may end up fighting the Shinsoo a second time…

Considering that he has been fighting constantly with Shinsu lately, such a development was a no-brainer.

“I have no choice but to fight because the situation has turned out like this anyway.”

“Are you going for that operation?”

“Okay, I’ll ask you then. Miho.”

“Leave it to me! West!”

Miho hugged Tia, who was still touching the bartender’s skinhead.

Then, they took Tia and left this place at high speed.

“Please take care of yourself… !!”

“Yes.”

Shortly, Cor also goes outside following the fox.

With this, all the conditions have been met.

The only ones left in the VIP lounge are me, Yata, and Alice.

I never thought Alice would be included, but that’s okay.

There is no problem with Alice’s ability because it is not a type that affects the phenomenon like Miho, Tia, and Cor.

The same goes for Yata’s ability. In other words, the three of us were beings without any problems no matter how much we used our abilities.

“Even if I can’t tell you, can I help you?”

“Of course.”

“What if I said no after doing the work?”

“Anyway, I’m not that shameless.”

“Yes….”

I already thought I was shameless enough, but I tried hard not to let it come out of my mouth, so I kept my lips shut.

“Alice, is it okay to fight?”

“Yes, no problem. Because I came here to help the boss from the beginning.”

“Thank you. Let’s try it then.”

An unusual situation where only 3 people face the organization.

But I don’t know if it’s normal to not worry about anything anymore.

***

5 Seconds.

It may seem like a very short time, but it wasn’t.

The speed of bullets in pistols is more than 300M per second, and in the case of rifles, they fly at a speed of 900M per second.

In other words, every 0.5 Seconds, dozens of bullets approach where we are.

In that sense, being able to know the future 5 seconds later is a huge benefit.

Knowing where the bullets come from and when they come close to me means that I can dodge the bullets as well.

Just… Still, the gun was powerful.

“Nang-kun, blood is leaking from your forearm?”

“I know….”

I also tried to fight using Yata’s ability as much as possible, but my judgment was arrogant.

Reluctantly, I decided to use Tia’s ability a little bit and deflected all the bullets with the wind.

Then I ran and hid myself behind a bar where there was a cover to stop the bleeding on my forearm for a while.

In the meantime, screams began to be heard simultaneously from here and there.

I could have predicted that Alice was knocking down the gang members at an unbelievable speed.

If things go on like this, Alice might wipe them all out by herself..

She asked for her help, but it was unsightly to have her sucking her finger behind her back.

After quickly completing the first aid treatment, I came out again and immediately rushed towards the nearby enemy.

A man who witnessed me and opened fire.

It reads the future and avoids what can be avoided, and bullets that cannot be avoided change their trajectories by slightly bouncing the strings of air.

Successfully approaching me like that, the man tried to shoot me with the butt of his rifle, but my leg kicked his shinbone one step faster.

In the end, the man crouched down in pain, and I grabbed the man’s temples and put my knees into his face.

Finally, I grabbed the neck of the snake that was creeping up behind me and tore it in half.

“Cheer!!”

“Now is it one person and one animal….”

In a situation where Yata and Alice have already defeated hundreds of enemies, I have only managed one.

The start is delayed, but I have no intention of giving up all the prey to the two of them.

Now is different from the time when I had a hard time because of the ban on bringing weapons into the casino.

I finally succeeded in stealing the enemy’s weapon.

Picking up the man’s rifle, which had naturally fallen on the floor, set the control bar to continuous fire.

And then, holding the vertical handle of the rifle and taking a good grip, I ran forward.

There is no shooting stance that is as unstable and has a low accuracy rate as shooting while running.

However, accuracy was not that important to me.

Because he knew where to aim and hit the enemy through his future foresight, he was able to spit out spirits with a hit rate approaching 100.

Besides, it shoots while constantly touching the air thread and randomly changing the trajectory of the wind.

Enemy bullets couldn’t even approach my body, and on the contrary, my bullets were aimed at the enemy’s forehead in cover.

Now I’m almost running around. It was very satisfying to boast of impregnability without a single flaw.

Instead, it’s an embarrassing downside to occasionally have to pause and rummage through enemy corpses to replenish out of ammo.

“Boss, it looks like you need to evacuate. A third of our personnel have already been killed.

“What! What the heck are these guys? Are you slaughtering our gang members like rats with just three people!!”

“I don’t know. They are unidentifiable.”

“You mean I can’t identify you, are you farting? You won’t be able to find out if it’s a rival faction or an agent sent by a government agency!”

“The rival faction has lost the previous power struggle and has no time to attack, and the government collaborator replied that there was no plan to visit government agents at all.”

“f*ck! So where are those bastards from?”

“That…. Sorry, not enough information yet to figure it out.”

“What an incompetent bastard!”

The boss of a drug organization gets furious while slapping a man who appears to be the organization’s mastermind.

His anger was so great that their conversation could be heard even here.

Still, thanks to that, I was able to hear the keyword I wanted.

The ‘government side collaborator’, the collaborator they are talking about must be the traitor who was the target of this mission.

Then it became clear what I had to do.

A bookkeeper or the boss of an organization. We must catch one of these two and find out who the traitor is.

Thought so, I turned my steps back to where they were, ignoring them.

“He is aiming for the boss!”

“Quickly stop it!”

The members of the drug cartel block the way to the boss with their bodies.

Even though the boss’s actions were rubbish, the loyalty of his subordinates was strangely high.

No matter how capitalist the world has become, it would not be more precious than life, but their spirit to sacrifice lightly was amazing.

“Boss, let’s evacuate in this gap.”

“Hey! f*ck things!!”

The boss and the bookkeeper left after spitting on the floor and moved towards the elevator.

It is absurd to use the elevator instead of the emergency exit even in an emergency.

Still, they confidently used the elevator to go upstairs, meaning they would use the heliport on the roof of the casino.

If they leave in a helicopter, they won’t be able to catch it without Tia’s power.

We have to stop that much.

“I can never send… !!”

“These are really funny guys… !!”

After I dealt with the members blocking my way, this time a big bear-like man and a real bear blocked my way.

I tried to send him away as quickly as it was troublesome, and shot the man’s torso.

He was laughing at me with an ugly smile.

Then he unbuttoned his shirt and showed me a thick vest underneath.

“It’s a bulletproof vest! You stupid bastard!”

“Aha, it was a bulletproof vest.”

“Yes! Even if you shoot 100 times, I will not budge!”

“Then, is that head also bulletproof?”

“Hmm?”

-Taang!

I immediately aimed the gun at the man’s forehead and pulled the trigger.

As even I, who borrows Shinsoo’s ability, is a weapon that I must always be vigilant about, everyone except Shinsoo is equal in front of a gun.

“Kuwoeouk!!”

“Oh no… !!”

A brown bear, enraged by the death of his own companion, swung his front paw at my head.

I barely succeeded in avoiding him by throwing my body backwards, but the brown bear’s paws cut through the air and threw away the slot machine next to me.

After witnessing the power of it, the idea of ​​being equal in front of the gun came back to me.

In the past, I’ve seen the results of a study that the power of a bear’s forepaw is over 1 ton.

Compared to a gun that can at least kill you if you brush it against it, a bear’s paw might really fall behind if you brush it against it.

After that comparison, the gun started to look like a toy.

“Kuruk!!”

This time, the situation was complicated by the brown bear’s prepared posture to rush at me.

I don’t think I’ll be able to kill even if I shoot in response, and I don’t even have the speed or strength to dodge or block the charge.

In conclusion, I had to use my ability to knock him down, but I didn’t want to use my ability any more than that.

At the yard where my head was already pounding from the overuse of future foresight and air manipulation.

If you use the ability more, it will be useless later when the important moment arrives.

So I’m going to go with an unconscionable strategy here without thinking about face.

“Alice! Sorry I’m busy, but could you help me for a moment?”

“Yes… !!”

A rabbit came near me with a bright voice, perhaps because he was happy to be called.

As soon as they arrived, they were flapping their rabbit ears and their eyes were shining.

“What can I help you with? I’ll do anything for you!”

“Yes, yes.”

For some reason, it was like seeing subordinates who were trying to protect the drug gang boss.

In a way, it’s more loyal than them…….

In fact, it was a sticky feeling that I couldn’t conclude that it was loyalty.

Anyway, I decided to think about the rabbit’s change later, so I had to deal with the brown bear first.

“Now I have to go after the guys on the run, right? So, can you take care of this brown bear right in front of you?”

“Yeah, okay.”

“Thanks, Alice! Then I’ll ask you!”

“Kyahoo… ?!”

In my overflowing gratitude, I hugged Alice’s small body too tightly without realizing it.

Even if it’s a Shinsoo, it’s my fault for forgetting that I’m a woman.

She Leaving her a light apology to her, I tried to follow her on the path the two run away passed by.

Of course there was a brown bear rushing towards me to stop me like that, but……

“Sah, don’t disturb the boss… !”

“Quuk!!”

-Kwajik!

Thanks to Alice hitting the bear in the face with a paroo, I was able to safely resume the chase.

After this job is over, I should give Alice a proper reward.

‘Is it late….’

I solved the bear problem with a naive trick and reached the front of the elevator, but it was already too late.

Since the elevator panel was changing from ‘1’ to ‘2’, it must have left.

I had no choice but to use the nearby emergency stairs to climb up.

Considering that the rooftop is located on a high floor and the elevator is high-speed, following the stairs is a foolish thing to do.

Some are comfortably heading to the rooftop in seconds, while others climb slowly, sweating profusely.

No one would say that this isn’t foolish.

However, I couldn’t wait for the next elevator, so it was a natural choice for me to follow as far as I could.

“f*ck! f*ck! f*ck… !!”

He swears while running up the stairs two at a time.

The act of going up the stairs to the roof in a tired state is mortification during penance.

I’d rather leave the chase to Alice and I’ll be in charge of the bear…. I kind of regret it.

But since I had already reached the 8th floor, I was the only one who had to see the end.

“Haa… ! Ha… !”

The location of the rooftop is on the 10th floor, just go up two more floors and you’re done.

As I went up to the ninth floor with the hope that the helicopter hadn’t left yet, I had to grab the back of my neck.

“Where are you going in such a hurry? You can’t get past here.”

“Ah! Wash it off!”

The remaining gang members block the stairs to the 10th floor.

I could be sure that if I tried to fight them, I would definitely miss them.

“Get out of the way when I say nice things! If you don’t want to taste superpowers.”

“Psychic power… ? Ha ha ha! Guys! It’s a superpower!”

“””hahahaha!!”””

Seeing the men start to laugh at my words, I remembered the rice cake sticker who was laughing like this.

I tried to save on the use of my abilities, but I couldn’t just listen to the annoying laughter.

I wanted to give them an end like rice cake sticks.

‘Roll like this and go to the first floor.’

Write down your thoughts into sentences and hallucinate them all.

Then everyone lay down and rolled down the stairs.

Kudangtang! Kwajik! Cooong! Quaang! I heard a lot of bloody sounds, but there was no room to care about those things.

Because Miho’s use of his ability gave him a headache that felt like a needle stabbing his brain, he had to focus all his concentration on going up.

A state in which you can no longer use your abilities.

Nevertheless, I struggled up and barely reached the 10th floor, grabbed the doorknob that led to the rooftop, and opened it.

‘Whew… !! I think I’ll live a little.’

Unlike the stuffy air inside, the cool air entered my lungs, and my throbbing head felt a little refreshed.

I couldn’t use any more abilities, but it seemed like I could shoot without any problems, so I felt relieved for a while.

Above the heliport, I had to sigh at the helicopter that was nowhere to be found.

‘It’s really late….’

You could tell it was too late when you couldn’t even hear the sound of the helicopter’s propellers.

A night sky where nothing can be seen except for the exceptionally bright moon and stars.

I let out a long breath with a sigh and dropped the gun I was holding onto the floor.

I knew it was dangerous to act like this in a situation where the remnants might attack the rooftop at any moment.

I didn’t even have the strength to lift a gun because of the sense of collapse that took away all the strength in my body.

“f*ck….”

When I wanted to look back and reflect on my mistakes, where did I go wrong?

Suddenly, the sound of a strong wind and a cheerful woman’s voice came to my ears at the same time.

“There! A young man who is getting discouraged!”

“Yes… ?”

“Is this fat, cranky-looking guy by any chance the person you are looking for?”

“Ah, that….”

“Or is this cunning-looking bespectacled man?”

“Both….”

“If that’s not the case!! Could it be this beautiful and noble sister?”

“…… Except for my sister, everyone else.”

“You are honest! To such an honest you, a chance to marry me….”

“I don’t need it.”

“Too much!”
