Chapter 74: Panzerfaust type 60 and Wire entanglements (1/2)

At about noon on the sixth day of the travel.

“Five trolls, they have noticed us and are approaching!”

Shia stopped the wagon, then shouted out the name and number of the approaching monsters.

Lyss calmly plugged the AK47’s banana magazine in, flipped the safety switch, and pulled the cocking handle, consequently loaded a cartridge into the chamber.

Lyss hung a few magazine pouches with spare ALICE clips. She didn’t mind the mud stain on her cheeks, held the AK47 in her hands and jumped off of the wagon, just like a veteran guerilla soldier.

“Then I’m leaving it to you two.”

“Leave it to me, Lute-kun!”

“I will do my best to meet Lute-san’s expectation!”

Snow and Lyss were the ones who would meet the trolls.

The two of them went around the front of the wagon with AK47s in hand.

Meanwhile, to support those two, Chrisse was standing on the coachman seat with the M700P in her hands.

So that they would not startle the horses, Snow and Lyss moved them a short distance away from the wagon.

They pointed the AK47s forward while in a standing position.

The trolls didn’t know the might of the AK47 and just kept running straight toward us.

When they were no more than 50 meters away, the two of them started shooting in semi-automatic mode.

They enhanced their physical ability with a body enhancing technique to suppress the recoil, and they fired in bursts of two shots. The bullets blew away the trolls’ heads without straying from their aim. In a blink of the eye, Snow and Lyss had each taken down two trolls already.

The last one turned around and ran away in a panic, but it was already too late.

It was already in the killzone of the ‘vampire’.

BANG!

A hole appeared on the head of the running troll at the same time as the firing sound of the 7.62x51mm NATO round rang out.

Chrisse naturally pulled the bolt back to release an empty case.

It probably hadn’t even been three minutes in total since we started fighting.

Snow burned the trolls after she finished collecting the materials.

Lyss, who was taught how to use a gun, flipped the AK47’s safety switch back on.

Her cheeks were a little flushed.

“Thank you for lending me the AK. As I thought, this recoil is nice.”

“Lyss has completely got used to handling the AK47, huh.”

“This too, is thanks to Lute-san teaching me.”

In these six days, even Lyss had gotten used to travelling.

She didn’t get car sick anymore, she could gather firewood, and she did night watch without a problem, too.

So just in case, I taught her how to handle and use the AK47 for self-defense. At first, I was worried that she might get frightened by the firing sound and the impact of the recoil. But contrary to my expectation, she liked it.

She especially liked the full auto mode. After shooting practice was done, somehow her cheeks were dyed red, and she was drunk on the lingering numbness of her hands and body.

According to her — ‘Hafuu~, this recoil feels pleasant.’

What is this trigger happy condition……

She had found a preference that even she herself didn’t know.

At first I thought ‘Could it be that she doesn’t like it?’, but just like this time’s troll extermination, if there was a chance to shoot, she would want to shoot. So there was no problem.

At night, after we finished dinner, I talked to everyone while drinking scented tea.

The content of the talk was about the Giant scorpion, the extermination target in Green Howden, where we would arrive tomorrow.
