Chapter 314
Even after that, I continued my firearm training.
I was also dragged into physical training by the Sword Saint, alongside Claire, Leo, and Alice. Since my stamina had improved a bit, I even started learning swordsmanship—clumsily, but still.
And then there was Jennifer, who had followed the Sword Saint out of curiosity, only to decide that she had to teach me close-quarters combat. She tossed me around relentlessly.
To be honest, it didn’t exactly boost my confidence. The certainty of success was gone. If the reason I had never been shot in the head while traversing battlefields was because the goddess had calculated my survival odds, then that advantage was no longer guaranteed.
But that didn’t mean I could just give up.
According to the Sword Saint, if nothing else, I at least knew how to put in the effort. So all I could do was improve my skills as much as possible.
And—
A horrific scream rang out from outside the train.
It wasn’t the same as the screams that had followed the gunshots earlier.
To describe it accurately—
"Aaaaagh!"
It was the sound of something plummeting from the sky and crashing violently into the ground.
