"...... not working. The Eye's attack has knocked out the magician."

"It seems so. We have confirmed that this magic gun can inflict a fatal wound on an iron-type magic-armored soldier. Let's use this information to plan our tactics next time.

　I observed for a while.

　However, it seemed that the magic-armed soldiers had really been disabled by Ai's attack.

　There was no sign of getting up at all.

　I thought that he would be all right now, and then I went closer to the iron knight to check his armor.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Metal armor made of iron.

　The thickness of the armor is about 2 mm.

　The front part of the chest seemed to be a little thicker than the rest, but it still could not withstand the attack of the magic gun.

　There was a hole in its chest, and the bullet that penetrated through it made a hole in its back.

　And inside the torso, there were traces of what looked like magic stones that had been shattered into pieces.

　As I thought, Ai's precise aim must have shattered the iron knight's magic stone.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The magic stone has been shattered, and the armored soldier can no longer move.

"...... isn't that gun too powerful?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Is that so?　In that case, would you like to use it, Master Alphonse?"

"Hmmm. Well, it's not that I'm not interested. After what you just showed me, fighting with a sword might seem a little silly. What's the point of training like that?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I think there is a point to training. The magic gun is a useful weapon, but it is not the most powerful weapon.

"With that?　I can target an opponent at a distance with that kind of attack power, you know?　Isn't it strong enough?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Is it possible that a magic gun is not strong?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I recall that he said that a spear is stronger than a sword because the distance between the sword and the spear is farther.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Compared with that, the distance between a magic gun and a sword would be outrageous.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Especially, it is said that the range of the previous guns was more than 200 meters, but this new one has even longer range.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　A sword would never be able to reach it.

"Not really. The magic gun is indeed very useful. But its attacking method is very simple. All you have to do is aim at the target and send the magic bullet straight at him. Moreover, its power of attack has a limit and it decreases with distance. It will not work against a person of higher rank who has more magical power. Besides, depending on the opponent, they may use magic.

"Oh, you mean there will be counterattacks from the other side?　They could attack each other from a distance with magic attacks."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Yes, that's right. That may happen. Or, you can't hit a person who acts by stopping time. In the first place, those who have high magic power also have high defense, so their attacks with magic bullets may not be able to penetrate.

　...... I see.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Or perhaps the opposite is true then.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I thought of what would happen if a magic gun attacked me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　If you are attacked from a long distance with an attack that can penetrate through your metal armor, the only way to prevent it is to raise your defense.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　In other words, unless you have a body that can withstand being hit by magic bullets, and unless you have an abundant amount of magic power, you will not be able to defeat an opponent with a magic gun.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　In other words, it is impossible to say that there is no meaning in training.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　In fact, with such a weapon, if you don't train and train until you can beat this weapon, when the actual battle comes, no matter how many lives you have, it won't be enough.

"Thinking of it like that, I should train harder and harder, shouldn't I? Then, I'll work a little harder. Besides, I couldn't fight against the Iron Knight because Ai got the best of me, so I should stay in the labyrinth a little longer."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Yes, sir. Then let's go a little deeper to increase the amount of magic. It turns out that we can deal with the iron armored soldiers even with magic guns, so I think we should be fine.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Okay. Okay, let's go deeper.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　In fact, I was thinking of leaving before I let Ai out in the labyrinth.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I even activated the nucleus of the Eye to deal with the three bronze knights at the end.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But I have decided to change my mind.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I decided to stay in the labyrinth a little longer and head further in.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　We look for signs, and we feel what looks like a magic-armed soldier further in the labyrinth.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Perhaps this is the Iron Knight.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I somehow think so, judging from the difference in footsteps and so on.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　In other words, we must have somehow crossed the area where there are many bronze knights, and have come to the area where there are many iron knights.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　And that means that we are deep into the labyrinth.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The depths of the labyrinth.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It means that we are getting closer to the labyrinth core, and it is also the place where the concentration of magic power is high in the labyrinth.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　A high concentration of magic means, in short, a great opportunity to raise your own magical power.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It is because you can capture the magical power floating in the atmosphere and make it your own.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　If you want, you may stay in the labyrinth for a few days.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I have packed a certain amount of food in my magic bag.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I think I have some canned food.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　With those, I can stay in this space for a while without leaving the labyrinth.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Seeing Ai's attack with the magic gun, I am getting more and more motivated.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Thus, I continued on my way toward the presence of the magic-armed soldiers further into the labyrinth.
