Reincarnated in another world with a Gunsmithing System Nothing left to lose
Ezra and Aurelia rushed out of the prison and flew straight to the shrine where Tanya had been staying in one of the priestly quarters.Count Gressil had already arrived along with Marquis Sullivan, and despite the several restrictions, the shrine was filled with Elite Knights.As Ezra entered the room, he immediately noticed the tarry black circle on the tiled floor. It was still wet and pulsating with dark energy.“They teleported straight into her room via a dark portal,” he observed before shuffling across to examine the other things. “And just how the hell did they manage to get inside a shrine? I thought Ishani’s light repelled all practitioners of dark magic!” Count Gressil was fuming with rage, his bloodshot eyes restlessly flitting across the room. “I should have never allowed her to follow this madness. Now, her blind devotion has cost her everything. Damn, the shrine. Damn, Ishani!”Moving to the far end of the room, Ezra reached Tanya’s bed and found the bedsheets stained
Reincarnated in another world with a Gunsmithing System The Crusade commences!
Marlin was reminded of his younger days as he watched Ezra work tirelessly under the light of the table lamp. He measured every single line with perfect precision and sketched like a man possessed, till finally, a faint outline emerged on the paper.There were several mechanisms in this special weapon, each composed of hundreds of tiny moving components. But this particular gun looked nothing like a rifle or even a hand cannon. In fact, it resembled something close to a mechanical extension of a Golem’s arm.“Is this also a weapon from your world?” Marlin asked, unable to contain his curiosity any longer.“Yes, it is one of the most powerful guns to exist in my world. But it's usually fitted on battle vehicles since it is too heavy for a single soldier to carry around,” Ezra replied without pausing his work.Marlin was surprised by this new information. “There are vehicles in your world that wield guns?” he asked.“No, the gunners stationed inside man the guns. The weapons are mounted
Reincarnated in another world with a Gunsmithing System The Horrors that lie in wait
The advanced scouts returned just as Ezra was about to ride out, but only half the squad had managed to make it back to the city. Among the five returning scouts, two were critically wounded, while another was delirious and shaking in his boots.“What happened out there?” Aurelia rushed to them, demanding an explanation while the medics tended to the wounded.“They are everywhere. We are surrounded by death!” the delirious one spoke out in a cracking voice, his eyes gleaming with madness. “They are…beasts from the blackness. They cannot be killed. I saw them…their claws…and their fangs.”“Speak some sense, will you? What attacked you?” Ezra asked, looking into the man’s dilated pupils.“There were gray wolves…and then there were black bears!” the scout answered, turning his face away and cowering in fear. “We were attacked by vipers and trampled by bulls. There were griffins and Razor-tailed Scorpions too!""This one has clearly lost his marbles. We need to get him to the shrine and le
Reincarnated in another world with a Gunsmithing System Reinforce and Fortify
Aurelia left for Racinta at once, but instead of flying, she chose to ride a black stallion to avoid getting spotted by the wyverns and dragons prowling the skies.Ezra wanted to clear the way to Cekunia as soon as possible since it was the first city on their list of targets. However, the reports from the scouts made it clear that they needed to exercise caution.Before heading out of Magaravia, Ezra decided to give his next orders as the commander of the allied forces. He immediately called for High Mage Ignacious and Overlord Dojing Wu.“The reports are alarming. The necromancers have their troops posted at every major checkpoint. We need to consolidate and fortify our newly captured territories first. If we go on the offensive now, there is a good chance the undead will try to organize another raid on our forward bases,” he said.Dojing Wu had fought plenty of wars against other Overlords as well as the barbaric hill tribes from the snowy north. However, he had little experience o
Reincarnated in another world with a Gunsmithing System Aerial Supremacy
Overlord Dojing Wu spearheaded the mission, leading the way on his Sea Dragon. The Majestic beast sprinkled raindrops each time it fluttered its wings, radiating a pale blue aura.The Griffin Riders followed in a scattered formation, some riding high and others keeping low to survey the ground. It had been a long time since Dojing Wu had led his fliers into enemy territory at night. But the darkness suited them well since Griffins were predatory hybrids and had excellent night vision.As far as the Sea Dragon was concerned, its emerald-green eyes could detect the slightest changes in temperature and spot enemies from miles away.But the darkness also empowered the undead and their infernal legions. As the influence of dark magic grew stronger at night, the ones raised from their graves became more ferocious, and some even gained new abilities.Dojing Wu flew across the Great Plains, keeping his eyes open for any sign of trouble. So far, the skies looked clear, and only a few vagrant
Reincarnated in another world with a Gunsmithing System Aerial Supremacy (2)
Each Tower of Corruption was a withered branch on the tree of undeath, connected to the abyssal realm by threats of darkness. Any attack on either of them resonated across the undead legion, alerting them instantly.Dojing Wu realized this a little too late, but once he figured it out, he understood he had to sever the tower’s connection with the abyss, or the reinforcements would never stop.As the Infernal Wyverns and Necro Bats swarmed in from all sides, Dojing Wu summoned his Thunder Spear and hurled it at the Tower of Corruption.He was hoping it would be able to destroy the Dark Crystal in one shot, but as the lightning bolt streaked across the sky, a dark barrier encased the gem atop the tower, absorbing the attack.“Keep the undead fliers at bay. I need to get closer to the tower!” he barked his orders before diving toward the tower with his Sea Dragon.The rest of the Griffin Riders immediately changed formation and spread out to deal with the undead fliers.As the Griffins sh
Reincarnated in another world with a Gunsmithing System Cosmic terrors of the blinding darkness
Ezra’s stallion raced with the wind as he leaned forward and spurred it onward through the misty haze. With the moon veiled by the encroaching gray clouds, the night darkened like the pit of a bottomless well, leaving the wretched traveler blind amidst the trees.In the pale glow of the lantern wobbling at his side, Ezra could barely make out the tall shapes of the ancient Gray Maples and Silver Sorrels flanking his path. Occasionally, his horse would let out an agitated neigh and veer off toward the low-lying steps of the distant hillocks, but he would forcefully steer it back on track.“Come on. Just listen to me!” Ezra grumbled, clutching the reins so tightly that the rope bit into his gloves, leaving marks on his skin. As the moon completely disappeared from the sky, the shadows smothered the way ahead, cloaking the snaking path running through the tall trees.Unable to see anything in that blinding darkness, Ezra had no choice but to pull the reins of his horse, bringing the agi
Reincarnated in another world with a Gunsmithing System Trolls and Totems
Fighting trolls was a nasty business even in broad daylight, but Ezra found himself staring down three of these fiendish brutes in the middle of the darkest night he had ever seen. The dangers were only compounded by the fact that these ones were already dead.Raised from their woodland graves with the foulest form of dark magic, the trolls had been transformed into unthinking masses of rotting skin and flesh. This ungodly resurrection had not only altered their brains but changed their forms as well.Each Undead Troll had gained new dark abilities and a cruel amount of strength that would put even the Orc Berserkers to shame.Ezra realized now that these wretched trolls hadn’t wandered onto this beach aimlessly, but had been summoned to this place to guard the way to Cekunia and keep unwanted visitors away.“I am glad we are at least fighting these brutes out in the open. God, I would hate to face them inside some lightless cave,” Marlin muttered, turning his cursed eye away from the

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
