Chapter 284 I Must Have Her 

What’s the first move?

As Lucius returned to the team, he positioned himself before her without noticing. His pale, almost see- through fingers took the gun she was pointing forward. “Focus straight ahead. I’ll take a look at the magazine for you.” 

Milly couldn’t help but feel a bit uneasy with him so close. 

Yet, saying she felt uneasy wasn’t quite the correct description. It was more than that–not just unease but a type of resistance akin to the natural aversion one might feel towards physical contact with the opposite 

sex. 

Having no other option, she had to rely on Lucius–after all, he was the only ally she had here. 

Milly took a deep breath, trying to calm her nerves, though she couldn’t completely hide her tension. 

Lucius seemed to pick up on this, halting his actions and narrowing his eyes sharply. “You’re scared of me.” 

1…” 

Why did he always press on this matter, asking the same question repeatedly? 

Shouldn’t a Yandere character like him be more unpredictable rather than firating on one response? 

She felt trapped between her answers; nothing seemed to fit just right.. 

Overwhelmed by the tense atmosphere, she was on the brink of collapse when she heard Xavier’s stern voice cut through. “Who said you could just leave the team without notice? Get back to base now!” 

It was Xavier. 

Through her tears, Milly saw Xavier, decked out in heroic attire, coming to her rescue like a knight in shining armour. 

Who said heroes could only emerge from the light? 

With his military and political lineage, Lucius was no stranger to discipline. Even though he was a bit of a handful at times, his upbringing meant he couldn’t just ignore an order–he returned to his post. 

The moment he exited, Milly sensed the atmosphere clearing up around her. 

She inhaled deeply. 

But then she thought, He’s gone. Note, how am I supposed to fire? Just aim and pull the trigger? Should I have loaded it first? 

“What are you waiting for? Make sure the safety’s off and that it’s loaded, came Xavier’s voice behind her. 

Milly blinked, looking slightly sceptical, and turned her gaze towards him. 

Sure, the person who once adored Stephanie enough to metaphorically twist his head off to please her is now her instructor? According to the book’s descriptions, shouldn’t he be distant and uninvolved, perhaps

It truly was baffling and utterly perplexing. Individuals donned in heroic attire were different from your average, comprehensible folks. 

Xavier locked eyes with her and responded with a chill. “Why are you staring at me? Do you think my face is a book? Focus on the gun!” 

Milly replied, taken aback, “Oh.” 

“Hold the gun firmly with both hands, and place your cheek close to the stock to line up your eye, the sighting groove, and the target. Take a deep breath, concentrate, and try to keep still before gently squeezing the trigger. Make sure you’re aiming correctly before you take the shot.. 

“Being precise in targeting, especially when lining up your shot, is crucial, which means adhering closely to the three–point line principle. This concept involves aligning the front sight notch, the sight, and the target in a straight line, no matter the position of the eyes. Essentially, the eyes ensure those three. elements are perfectly aligned. 

“Once everything is set up, go ahead and start shooting!” 

He spoke at a moderate pace, and his words were clear enough that Milly believed she got the gist. 

The three–point line. 

Gently, her fingers pressed on the firearm. 

“What’s the plan? Carefully pulling the trigger? Which type of firearm are you handling? You can nail the target in one go now. The careful squeezing of the trigger is something seasoned shooters do. When firing shot after shot, the bullets go off track, often upwards; they press down on the barrel to correct the aim. You’re struggling to keep the gun stable, and now you’re thinking of firing off continuously?” Xavier was clearly upset. 

“But…” Milly tried to justify, “I somehow feel more at ease doing it this way.” 

Even to herself, her justification sounded surprising. 

Had she been hanging around Anthony too much and picked up his overconfidence? But then, Anthony did have some fundamental skills, so what made her say that just now? 

Xavier scoffed. “At case, you say? Well, it’s your choice.” 

Milly shut her eyes, thrilled by the subtle smell of gunpowder lingering at the barrel. Upon reopening them, she fixed her stare on the far–off target. 

Bang, bang, bang. 

What followed was indeed a rapid succession of shots. 

Then, the big screen ahead displayed the score. Ten rings, ten rings, ten rings. 

The crowd went from silent to loudly astonished in an instant. 

“Am I mishearing or mistake? Why does it look like all tens?” 

“I’d more readily believe the machine’s busted.”
