Capítulo 16: 16 When In Doubt, Use Two Guns
I dropped like a large man with a gun, because that's what I was. I saw miles of beautiful forest below me, with an ocean visible at the edge of the horizon for a few seconds that vanished once I fell for a few seconds. I decided to visit there for a vacation after demon cleanup.
I kept looking, trying to find a place to land. I spotted a village under siege that had empty space for me to land. Two rows of buildings encircled a town square, and a wooden wall enclosed them. Then a horde of demon spawn surrounded the walls, completing the picture. The horde seemed to be comprised of wriggling tentacles and slashing teeth, with slithery scales thrown in for good measure. Luckily for the town, it's walls seemed to be holding together nicely for now.
I pointed the DS 9001 towards the tentacles and teeth, pulled the trigger and kept it down. The effect was almost everything I wanted. When my slugs hit their target, the opposing implosion and explosion fields fought against each other to create a centrifugal force that spun the affected area, which shredded and then fell apart upon reaching the limit of the affected materials' durability. The problem was that the effect had only a six inch range. This was fine if I was only fighting a few at a time, but there were hundreds of the terrors. I needed a larger AoE attack.
"System," I said, annoyed. "Start a new template called DS 9002. Copy the DS 9001 over as the base." Time for an upgrade.
I pulled up the DS 9002 template. All I really had to do was alter the size definitions on the implosion and explosion effects, but I didn't want effects that affected an area of several feet activating close to me if I ever had to shoot an enemy that got close to me. So I made a slide switch that had both definitions aligned with both enchantments. Moving the switch would slide the desired definition into place, with a clip at the end of the slide to lock it in place.
Then I saved the template and commanded System, "Create DS 9002!" The new gun appeared before me in all its glory and started to fall to the ground with me. I snatched it in my left hand. Come to think of it, dual wielding shotguns is a suitably Heroic thing for me to do.
Sadly, I was much closer to the ground at this point. The problem was that I needed the height advantage so that I could rain good old hot lead on the freaks below me. So I reached out and stabilized the space around me and stopped falling.
To elaborate, gravity occurs due to the nature of the interaction space has with form. Space, which is the container of reality, by its very nature encapsulates form. The more form is there, due to the mass of an object, the more space is needed to encapsulate it. Any smaller form is drawn into the larger by virtue of having its space subsumed into the space encapsulating the larger form. Since I was able to perform spatial manipulation, I was able to achieve antigravity by twisting the space around me out of alignment and make it my personal domain that was not part of the gravitational field.
Then a thought occurred to me. I could create a localized gravity field for the demons by twisting their space, and vacuum them up into one location, ready for the slaughter! That would really cut down on the time needed to finish these guys off!
So, I reached out and twisted the space above the demons, making sure that the pull was only downwards so that it wouldn't affect the village. Demons, dirt, and trees fell into the sky. I moved the singularity around until the ground around the village was entirely clear of everything, leaving only bare dirt.
I grinned and aimed my guns at the floating ball of confused demons and assorted detritus. Keeping the triggers depressed, I watched in fascination as the whole mess started whirling. Demons were shrieking, and their forms were dissolved into mana and absorbed by my body. The trees and other detritus blended together into a wet mushy soil.
Depositing the soil by the village gates for the farmers to use later, I floated down to the town square. Of course, that's when they attacked me.
