The Boss part 5

Crouching behind the desk I pull Nick's body to the ground and search him for more ammo. His bullets weren't the same for the gun I was using so I took his revolver, there were mostly normal bullets on him, but he did have 6 enchanted bullets hidden in his innermost pocket.

I did the same check on Vincent he had a small double barrel Derringer pistol with on shot left and a fully loaded custom made silver desert eagle that was engraved with a floral design.

I look at my new gun with wide eyes "My god it really is my birthday" this gift really boosted my option on Vincent if he was still alive I would be singing him praises right now.

Arming myself once more with my remaining 3 Glocks, 1 revolver, enchanted flintlock and all the ammo everyone provided me I feel like I'm ready to take on the world.

Ross moves closer towards me worried about him I try to shoot at him, but his friends kept me at bay with their covering fire. Being shot at with enchanted bullets is way scarer than being shot at with normal ones.

The force from the bullets kept pushing the desk around I had to use the bodies of Vincent and Nick to keep the desk from moving too much. Seeing this get me no were fast I rummage around my guts again in search of a magic scroll I look through what I had left and seen the perfect one for the job.

I had my flintlock and Glock ready for what I was going to do, next I activated the scroll by tearing it up aiming for the ceiling when I did.

The scroll lit aflame forming a green ball of acid that shot upwards and exploded on the ceiling. Raining down acid on everyone below except me since I wasn't In the splash radius.

Ragnar told me that the spell acid splash was while considered an intermediate spell is versatile making it useful In many situations and that the acid is strong enough to melt stone.

So you could imagine the kind of reaction I would get from people who were very familiar with this popular spell.

Some of the acid landed on them but they were quick enough to angle the furniture to protect themselves which is exactly what I wanted. I started with Ross he picked up the desk above his head while still slanting it towards me but it was enough. His actions left a gap big enough for me to unload my Glock into his legs.

He screamed in pain as he lost his grip on the coffee table and falling down on a pile of acid that corroding away the floor and now eating away at his back. He tossed and screamed for help, but none came his friends were cursing my name as they watch him flop on the floor.

I didn't stop there aimed my flintlock at the tilt sofa to my left shot it and blasted the tilt sofa over there heads leaving them completely exposed. They both were in bad positions with nothing close so they take off in different directions while firing at me, Otis was running to were Clement was and Claire was running towards me.

I swapped guns for another Glock then aimed for Otis instead of Claire since having 2 people shielding themselves from me using the coach again would have been annoying to deal with.

Hitting a moving target was harder so I missed my first 2 shots then I got lucky and hit him in the knee Otis almost fell over, but his body glowed and he was regaining speed. I shot every bullet I had In the gun before he finally stopped running yet he was still not dead just collapsed on the floor.

Claire had already made here way to me in the time I took to bring down Otis she was crouched on the other side of the desk. She quickly made her way to the other side turned the corner ready to shoot me only to discover I was gone.

She thought I made my way around her turning around in panic only to discover nothing. She checked all sides but saw nothing she was starting to get worried when she heard a noise. Claire promptly turned around and shot in that direction.

She heard a groan of pain she knew it was me after firing a few more shots she heard a tumble. That damn woman managed to shatter the same spot on my leg Clement and Ross broke when the came to my home and beat me up. The enchanted bullet didn't hit directly but the force from it caused he damage to spread on my already broken leg.

I only used my spirit threads to fix the problem so all the damage was still there I just ignored the problem and forced my self to keep going. The other bullets didn't hit me, but my leg would take a bit of time to stitch together time I don't have.

On the floor still invisible I aim the Glock in my hand at Claire's remain arm making sure she doesn't shoot me again. It took me 6 shots to finally cripple her other arm after that I shot the rest of the bullets in her chest as she started to slump down I land a luck shot in her eye blowing her brain out.

With her dead I now only have to deal with clement, Otis is bleeding out on the floor and those 3 guys outside are trying to break the door down.

Even though the bullet didn't hit me I can still tell traces of the bullet's magic is in my leg so, I can't heal it for a bit.

Clement now having to fight me alone had enough he got mad and enhanced his body as much as he could and drunk the contents in a brown flask making his veins pop out of his body. Enhanced by magic and whatever he drunk he picked up the coach and charged at me with it.

I tried shooting him with the Desert Eagle to no effect the gun had too much of a kick for me to shoot properly with one hand. Making me miss entirely or hit the coach in a bad spot.

He slammed down the partly corroded coach on the spot he thought I was hard, making me cough up blood. He almost broke my ribs with that attack I groaned in pain as I try to push the coach off me only to see Clement pick it up again and slam it down repeatedly.

My Invisibility was useless I coughed up so much blood you could easily tell where I was. Clement pick up the coach again to continue his onslaught the moment he did I used every ounce of strength I had left and lunged at him he saw me and brought the coach down again. I swear I could hear my back breaking, but it didn't matter because I had already won.

I had a firm grasp on Clement's left ankle seeing this Clement tried slamming my skull into the ground but abruptly stopped because we were no longer fighting physically instead we were having a battle with our souls.

It was a different experience from what I had experienced before I think because Clement was still alive my vision and senses were split. I could see and experience everything from my soul's perspective and my physical body.

It's like trying to play 2 different characters at the same time I've done something similar already when I poked my soul out to guard myself against falling into more hallucinations, but Clement most certainly has not.
