Reincarnated in another world with a Gunsmithing System A well-earned reward
The death of the Elder Lich dealt the final blow to the undead forces, putting an end to the attack. The clouds gathered over Silver Springs disappeared and the evening sun brightened the clear blue sky with its gentle rays.As Ezra returned to Silver Springs, the governor bowed to him and expressed his heartfelt gratitude. “I still do not know who you are, but I am in your debt.”“I am just an ordinary Gunner, and it was my duty to help your people. After all, you were kind enough to allow us inside your family’s crypt,” Ezra replied.The governor slowly raised his head and smiled. “I am sorry, but I refuse to believe you are an ordinary Gunner. I am not a magic user myself, but I have never seen someone so young fighting with such mastery. Your skills can easily put even the most powerful Elementalists to shame. And I am sure even His Excellency would acknowledge you as an equal.”“That I would.” Count Gressil’s voice rang out from behind. He was accompanied by Tanya and Milton.Tany
Reincarnated in another world with a Gunsmithing System Enchanted Crafting
A three-hour car ride brought Ezra and his companions back to Magaravia. Despite the challenges, their outing had been fruitful. The Atlas of Altamir was now in Tanya’s possession, and Ezra had managed to acquire two futuristic weapons.Once they returned to their mansion in Verdant Gardens, the Count ordered his men to set out for Silver Springs the following morning to fetch the remains of his fallen Elite Guards. Although they deserved to have their last rites performed in Ignar under the watchful gaze of their family members, he knew it was impossible now since the city had been conquered by a necromancer. All he could do now was give them a proper burial close to the mansion.While Count Gressil was busy conversing with his guards, Tanya summoned two priestesses from the shrine of Ishani in Bolter Street. Since Tanya was still in two minds about trusting the people of Magaravia she chose not to reveal anything about the map. Instead, she requested the priestesses to accompany h
Reincarnated in another world with a Gunsmithing System Secrets of the Atlas of Altamir
The next day, Tanya returned from Ishani’s shrine at the break of dawn and immediately sent for Ezra and her father.Count Gressil and Ezra met up in the guest room on the third floor of the mansion, where Tanya was waiting along with Count Gressil’s two most trusted Elite Guards.“The map has revealed its secrets, and you won’t believe how expansive and detailed it is,” Tanya said, motioning the guards to leave.As the Elite Guards stepped outside the room, Tanya unfurled the Atlas of Altamir on the table, revealing a detailed map of the Ruined City of the Ancients. It covered everything, starting from the roads leading to the city to the traps and treasures hidden inside.Forever a treasure-seeker, the thought of setting off on a treasure-hunting expedition excited Ezra. Even in his past life, he had always been fond of reading about lost artifacts and venturing into abandoned shops and run-down buildings to seek items of value.Although his misadventures had often landed him in trou
Reincarnated in another world with a Gunsmithing System A royal invitation
Right from the moment Ezra had first laid his eyes upon Tanya, he was smitten with her beauty. And it wasn’t just because she had a pretty face. She was the kindest and most caring girl he had ever met but was also brave and headstrong like her father.The only hurdle that stood between them was Tanya’s vow of celibacy since she had promised herself to Ishani. However, things were looking different now, or at least that was how Ezra perceived it.“The royal ball will be a good place to meet new people and learn more about the families who hold influence over the royal court,” Tanya spoke after a long spell of awkward silence.Ezra got his head out of the clouds and nodded. He realized that Tanya was trying to use the invitation to the royal ball as an excuse to get close to the king’s court and hopefully gather some allies. “I hope you do not mind going with a priestess-to-be,” Tanya chipped in, distracting Ezra from his thoughts.Although Ezra felt a little dejected after hearing Tan
Reincarnated in another world with a Gunsmithing System The darker side of Magaravia
Ezra broke off into a sprint and ran after the thief, his eyes following the frail figure of the kid as it disappeared into a shadowy alley.“Get back here, you damn thief!” Ezra shouted as he brushed past the pedestrians, nearly throwing a couple to the ground and causing two bikes to crash into the street lamps.The commotion soon created a blockage on the road, but Ezra had already crossed and was standing at the entrance of the alley. He had watched the kid dip inside, and there did not seem to be any other way out since it led to a blind end on the other side.Clenching his fist, Ezra stepped into the darkness and entered the alley. Almost immediately, a foul stench hit his nostrils. It was dark and damp inside the narrow space, and sunlight only illuminated the area in little patches where there were cracks in the banisters of the adjoining buildings.Only Ezra’s hurried footsteps echoed in the darkness, occasionally interspersed by the squeaking of mice and the soft tapping of
Reincarnated in another world with a Gunsmithing System The Nightshades
Ezra’s heart raced inside his chest as he realized the grave implications of being apprehended in this situation. If the guards found him standing there with four dead thugs around him, they would get the wrong impression and identify him as the criminal responsible for the killings.“I need to get out of here!”As Ezra tried to look for a way out, the sound of footsteps splashing on the water reached his ears. The guards were coming in hot, and they were soon going to block off his only exit. Without wasting another second, Ezra pulled out an elemental grenade and tossed it into the dark alleyway. It exploded with a white flash, releasing an icy blast that froze the water on the ground, causing the guards to slip on the ice and come crashing down.“God damn it!”“How the hell did this happen?”“Captain…I think we are dealing with a spellcaster!”“Or maybe a Gunner.”Before the guards could break the ice and clamber back on their feet, Ezra jumped on top of a dumpster and used his ma
Reincarnated in another world with a Gunsmithing System Legendary Scrolls
The only scrolls Ezra had used in his life were low-level summoning scrolls and teleportation scrolls. But the scrolls decorating the shelves inside the glass cabinets were far superior to the ones he was used to seeing.“What kind of scrolls are these?” Ezra asked as he stared at the rolled parchments wrapped in golden and silver threads with different types of bows securing them in place.“These are not your ordinary scrolls, dear boy. The scrolls you see here are Legendary Scrolls! They were crafted by some of the most powerful mages and sorcerers on this continent and are more valuable than enchanted weapons,” Madam Moonfrey replied and slowly made her way to the cabinet in front. Unlatching its glass door, she let Ezra have a good look at the treasures on offer. “Choose any five scrolls of your liking, and we will call it a day.”“That sounds like a poor deal. I am selling ten different crafting components that can only be obtained by killing the undead. And don’t forget there ar
Reincarnated in another world with a Gunsmithing System The dual wielder
Ezra’s duel was going to be the last one in the opening round. And even though he had qualified for the next round by securing a victory in his first match, he wanted to keep the winning streak going.The crowd gathered in the Arcadium cheered for the rival Gunner as she entered the arena. She was hardly a few years older than Ezra, but her mischievous grin showed that she was confident of securing a victory.King Reginald and his Chief Gunner were watching the match unfold from the stands, but the Chief Court Mage was nowhere to be seen. The crowd, however, had suddenly become a lot more interesting. The proprietor of Silver Threads, Kaelan Agnerius, was sitting beside the owner of the largest apothecary in the city, and in the stands behind them were a group of veteran adventurers.Among the other notable personalities were Captain Legrand, the Captain of the Imperial guards, and a group of wine and textile merchants. Seeing such affluent people among the spectators, Ezra realized

Choose your fate
“I never really thought the boy had it in him to keep going after he lost his home,” someone observed in a calm, benevolent voice. “I must admit his resilience is quite impressive for a mortal. Were it anyone else in his shoes, the ending would have been a lot different.”“I knew there was something about him right from the day he was born. Alas, his mother never got the chance to see him grow up,” a feminine voice stated wistfully. “The question remains, what must we do with him now?” the male voice questioned.“I think it is time to leave the choice in his hands,” a second feminine voice spoke aloud. “Wake up, my dear child. Your mortal troubles cannot touch you here. Wake up and choose.”Groggy and disoriented, Ezra slowly parted his eyelids and immediately squinted as the bright white light flooding the room smarted his eyes. Still dizzy and weak, he somehow rolled over and gasped.“Where am I? What happened?” “You are safe inside the Hall of Wandering Souls,” a measured feminine
Sins of Thy Father
“The hour of darkness descends upon this world like a shroud, and the bleeding moon beckons the Lord of Decay to reclaim his lost domain. Come forth and ascend the throne of darkness, my Lord!”Ezra’s heart pounded inside his chest like a caged animal, and his head throbbed in pain as he heard muffled words shouted in the distance. Lying in a bloody puddle on the black marble floor, he parted his droopy eyelids and saw Lord Wilhelm standing behind the altar and Lady Lillian facing him on the other side.Though Tanya’s face was hidden from view, Ezra could see her supple white fingers tingling as her delicate arm dangled from the stone altar. She was still alive, but Lord Wilhelm was already anointing the ceremonial dagger forged from infernal obsidian and preparing to plunge it into her heart.“You…cannot do it. You need the crimson moon to…summon Zepheroth,” Ezra said, fighting the pain.“The hour of our Lord is nigh. And all celestials shall obey his will,” Lord Wilhelm continued cha
Heroes never win
The enchanted nock gun vibrated with elemental energy as Jasenki loaded it with enchanted rounds. The glyphs carved into its stock shimmered and dazzled as he aimed at Ezra.“Scream for me, Ezra!” Jasenki yelled, pulling the trigger.Bang! Fwoom!A fiery barrage lit up the dark pavilion as fifteen fireballs erupted from the silver-dusted barrels. The first hit burned Ezra’s left sleeve, setting his tattered leather jacket ablaze, and the rest of the fireballs charred his white shirt, burning his skin.“This gun was forged by the best Gunsmiths in Stonewell, and enchanted with the rarest of ancient glyphs. No one can withstand its power!”Jasenki reloaded his weapon and fired again, unleashing another flaming barrage.But this time, a barrier of flames erupted around Ezra, cocooning him within an elemental shell.All fifteen fireballs exploded into sparks as they collided with the flame barrier, leaving Ezra unharmed.“Damn you, Ezra. Keep trying your tricks and see how long you can su
Lovers in Crime
Ezra looked at the two Spectral Companions hovering behind Jasenki and Cecilia and realized these spirits weren’t obtained from their ancestral artifacts. “I see you have abandoned your family relics,” he said, carefully analyzing the two specters with his Dragon Eye skill. “These spectral entities are gifts from the Lord of Decay,” Jasenki replied, raising his head with arrogance. “I bet you have never encountered anything so powerful before.”“Go on, Ezra. Call your little Spectral Basilisk, and let us see if it can stand up to our companions,” Cecilia mocked, casting a disdainful glance at Ezra’s tattered brown jacket and muddy black boots. “You still look as beggarly as before. I suppose some things never change. I am so glad I rejected you when I did.”Suddenly, Ezra’s eyes glinted, and his pupils brightened with a bright blue flame that blazed with magic energy. The scar on his chest glowed through his shirt, revealing his true power.Reaching inside his jacket, Ezra pulled out
Hour of Judgment
Following the glowing trail left behind by the Spectral Beholder, Ezra avoided the rot vines squirming in the mire, and the Medallion of Purity hanging over his chest shielded him from the swamp's corrupting influence.Dark geysers erupted around Ezra, spewing molten tar several feet in the air and filling the swamp with a sulfurous haze. The choking odor brought tears to his eyes, but he pushed on through the vaporous veil.The Spectral Beholder led Ezra to a small patch of dry land surrounded by rotting oak trees. As he stepped onto the elevated mound, he spotted a fiery blue orb floating in the distance.Ten more orbs appeared out of thin air, floating through the foggy darkness. At first glance, they looked like glowing power crystals, but as Ezra took a closer look, he realized these orbs weren’t floating crystals or fireflies, but Elven Wisps.The Elven Wisps were unique spectral entities only found in the Violet Everglades. Unlike Banshees and Spectral Wraiths, the Elven Wisps w
Lady of the Swamp
A weary traveler lost inside the Violet Everglades was an easy prey for the creatures of the dark, and Ezra had just encountered one such nefarious entity. But instead of fear, his eyes lit up with a strange hopefulness.“You called out to me in Tanya’s voice, so you must have seen her passing through. Point me toward the Fountain of Chaos, and I won’t kill you,” he spoke in a cold, emotionless voice, without even turning to look at the creature creeping toward him.The creature laughed at his words and rushed through the darkness, moving like a shadow to play with his mind. Her voice echoed from different directions as she disappeared like smoke and danced around Ezra.“You are in my home, youngling. The dark ones told me you’d be coming,” she cackled. “But you won’t be walking out alive. So, forget about your friend and save yourself if you can!”As Ezra stood there motionless, a howling shadow rushed past him and gathered on a dry patch of grass overgrown with violet tulips that glo
Swamped!
The upturned black carriage slowly sinking in the mud, had turned into a feasting ground for the necrophages prowling nearby. But these slimy creatures neither resembled Ghouls nor Drekavacs. At first glance, it was easy to mistake them for Merfolk due to their scaly bodies and fish-like gills. However, their sharp black claws and long white fangs gave away their real nature.About thirteen of them were gathered around the carriage, fighting for the best share of the food and tearing out lumps of flesh from the dead horses lying in the mud. Seeing no human bodies around, Ezra concluded the cultists must have ditched the carriage upon entering the swamp and proceeded on foot from this point onward.“The cultists are already here. We should be careful,” Ezra cautioned the Count as he slid out of the saddle and dismounted from his horse. It was far too dangerous to ride any animal into the swamp, leaving him with no choice but to walk.“We are losing time here. Let’s go in and kill thos
The Everglades dilemma
Marquis Desmond volunteered to stay behind and defend Stonewell while Count Gressil and Aurelia joined Ezra, ready to venture into the Everglades and rescue Tanya.However, as soon as Flavius heard their plan, he immediately objected to the idea.“The Violet Everglades is a perilous swamp haunted by malevolent specters and damned elven warriors who were cursed to roam this world forever. Chaos magic flows in its murky depths, twisting everything it touches and distorting the surroundings. Aberrations and magical anomalies are as common in the Everglades as trees in a forest. It is not wise to willingly venture into that death trap.”“The cultists have Tanya, and they are going to sacrifice her at the Fountain of Chaos. I don’t care about the dangers!” Count Gressil retorted, his fatherly feelings pushing all thoughts of caution out of his mind.But Flavius, being a distant guest, could look at things objectively without getting overwhelmed by his emotions. He looked calmly at the Count
Pieces of the final puzzle
Ezra rummaged through the pile of ashes on the ground, hoping to find that one elusive clue that would lead him to Tanya. But all he managed to get his hands on was a pile of disjointed bones buried amidst the heap.“God, how I wish you were here with me, Marlin. I could really use your help.”The thought of summoning Vorus’ departed soul to this mortal plane crossed Ezra’s mind for a moment, but as he looked at his shattered Mystic Lamp medallion, he remembered the necromancer had destroyed his old relic, vanquishing the Tainted Djinn.“Damn it, Vorus. You are a pain in the behind even after your death!” Ezra clenched his fists, anger, and frustration surging in his heart. Even after killing all three necromancers, he had learned nothing about Tanya’s whereabouts.As Ezra’s pocket watch ticked the minutes away, his heart raced faster and faster. He knew he barely had a couple of hours to locate Tanya and free her before the other cultists sacrificed her.The sound of heavy footsteps m
