NovelEnglishChapter 34: Visit at night
"Hehehe, there is no point in hiding from me, little dust," Rain said while grinning. "No dust allowed at home. Go away."
Leiah watched her son using magic to clean just a bit of dust off from the back of the door… so luxurious. Using just a piece of cloth to clean it was better, but Rain used his magic for everything. That was fine since he wanted to help, but Leiah was starting to worry since Rain showed some weird eyes while making sure that everything was completely clean.
"I suppose special kids have some sort of… traits that can't be helped," Leiah thought. "Rain doesn't like to do things that most kids do, so he finds joy in weird situations like this."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtA few days ago, Rain learned that aside from creating the elements with his mana, he can also control them in the atmosphere. It was a lot harder, though. Still, he began to practice that by using his magic to move particles of dust in the air. Thanks to that, he was reaching another level of his earth magic. Aside from just creating and firing the earth darts, he also could make them spin to guarantee some extra piercing power.
"I already added this to my daily training routine, but I guess I need to add something else," Rain thought while checking one dart that he created. "Something like this should be easy to deal with and copy by the people of this world… I need to add my knowledge from Earth to surprise enemies here when it becomes necessary."
Rain wondered if he should copy the mechanics of bullets in that world that had hollow points.
Hollow point bullets are projectiles with a hollowed-out or concave tip, creating a cavity in the front of the bullet. This design feature allows the bullet to expand upon impact, increasing its diameter and creating a larger wound channel. The expansion occurs due to the hydraulic pressure exerted on the hollow point upon striking a target.
The primary purpose of hollow point bullets is to optimize stopping power and terminal ballistics, especially in self-defense or law enforcement scenarios. When a hollow point bullet hits its target, the cavity fills with tissue and fluid, causing the bullet to expand and transfer its energy more effectively. This expansion results in greater tissue damage, increasing the likelihood of incapacitating the target and minimizing the risk of overpenetration.
Applying principles of aerodynamics to shape magic projectiles for optimal flight characteristics. We can improve the accuracy, stability, and range by reducing air resistance and optimizing the projectile's design.
Utilizing advanced materials or alloys with specific properties to enhance the performance of magic projectiles. For example, incorporating lightweight but durable materials could increase their range, velocity, and overall effectiveness.
"I guess I still have some options," Rain thought.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmRain could add those modifications little by little. It would be easier if he could train by focusing only on that, but it wasn't possible since he had to go to school and he had to graduate in less than eighteen months.
Although he took his time improving his earth dart, it didn't take long for Rain to obtain some results. As an experiment, he fired one Earth dart upward, and then only after ten seconds, it fell on the ground. It crossed at least five hundred meters before starting to fall…
"When magic can become this powerful, is there a point in fighting up close?" Rain wondered. "I was planning to mix magic with my boxing skills, but I am not sure if that is actually efficient anymore… I never saw the people in this world fighting at close range, so I don't have any references. I know that I am stronger, even with this body, than I was on Earth, but…"
Rain was thinking about that while he was having dinner with his family. He shook his head to get rid of those thoughts since another school week was starting tomorrow, and he had to go to bed earlier.
"Hmm?" Rain furrowed his eyebrows when he felt something weird in the air, a cold breeze crossing the house and then quickly dissipating.
Rain resumed his meal since he thought that he had just imagined things, but then someone knocked on the door of the house.
"Who could it be at this hour?" Roan asked. "Everyone knows that it is dinner time."
Roan sighed and then headed to the door, and then Rain felt a shiver. When his father was about to turn the knob, Rain fired a blast of wind that pushed Roan to the side, making him collide against the door. In the next moment, a halberd crossed the door and pierced the place where Roan was supposed to be.
