Volume 27: Cold Hearted Sniper
(September 14th, 2025- In GGO • SBC Glocken • Underground Dungeon )
Sinon: Huhhuh..
Sinon breathed as she aimed at the monster
boss's head which revealed a yellow spot on
its head. After accidentally fallen down a trap
chute while navigating a dungeon below SBC
Glocken, she discovered a boss-class monster within the dungeon and decided to herself to at her best to try to defeat the boss before it kills her. The position she chose for her attack was on a high wall and it was just out of the monster's attack range.
As in right now, she was accurately hitting the
boss's weak spot which was a yellow spot on
its head. Up until now, she hit the weak spot
without missing even once at all.
Monster:*roars*
Breathing deeply, Sinon aimed and fired at the yellow spot, which caused the monster to fall but not without flashing its tail to the side, hitting the support beam and melting it before it falls and causes a cloud of smoke to cover the boss. Reloading her sniper, Sinon aimed and look for the yellow spot amidst the smoke. After a while, Sinon spotted the yellow spot and shoot it instantly, which caused the monster to roar before it tried to stand up. But before it could, Sinon shot another bullet at the yellow spot, causing the monster to explode into blue polygons.
Sinon: Huh...
Sinon breathed repeatedly before a window
pop up and she looks at the weapon's name:
[PGM Ultimate Ratio Hecate II].
She then taps the weapon and the window
disappears just as the weapon appears and
drops into her hands. Sinon looks at it in
surprise, not expecting it to be heavy that she
thought.
Sinon: heavy...I mean snipers are heavy.
Sinon look at it in surprise, not expecting it
to be heavy that she thought
Sinon: Ultimate Ratio Hecate II. Hecate, Greek goddess of magic that can work with the name.

-In GGO. Wasteland Field-
Ginrou: Hey, Dyne buddy. Are they really coming, here?
A man named Ginrou said to the man in front of him who's named is Dyne and was loading bullets into the chamber of his gun.
Ginrou: Are you sure your information is
good?
Ginrou has a mohawk-style light brown hair.
He wore a tight, dark top, green trousers,
brown boots, black fingerless gloves, and
white goggles. Ginrou's weapon of choice is a
live ammo type and it's the «H&K UMP» sub-machine gun.
Dyne: I checked their route myself. I'm sure
of it.
Dyne stated it before putting a chamber in his gun and clicked his gun.
Dyne: those monster spawns are probably
good, so they're clearing them out. That
means more money for you. No complaining about anything.
He smiled at him. Dyne has a large, rock-solid
body, a rough face with a mustache. Dyne wore brown boots and gauntlets, a red scarf, a yellow cowboy hat, a yellow coat, and sone brown pants.
Ginrou: But aren't these guys the same ones
we hit last week? Isn't it possible they got
scared and changed their route?
Dyne: Monster-hunting squadrons don't care
if they get attacked as long as they earn
enough hunting. They're wonderful prey for
player-hunting squadron like ours. They're
like monsters, moving by the algorithm. They
have no pride.
Ginrou:*nodding* That's right.
Dyne: They're all equipped with energy
weapons for hunting monsters. As long as we
have defense fields ready, they're easy prey.
Ginrou: But couldn't they have some kind of
contingency plan for us?
Dyne: They can't easily get that many physical
guns, to attack humans. At best, they'll have
one support weapon. And.......the best sniper in GGO will take care of that for us, right?
Dyne said as he looks to his right and sees
Sinon sitting against the wall with her
weapon on standby next to her.
Dyne: The plan's perfect. Right, Sinon?
At his own statement, Sinon only nods.
Sinon: Yeah.
Sinon's own avatar has thin, pale blue swaying
hair that was casually short, but there was a
tuft of hair tied up on both sides of her
forehead, and indigo-colored eyes.
When she is in combat, her wardrobe is a
desert colored military jacket, bulletproof
armor, and combat boots of the same color
and she wears a white muffler around her
neck.
(Sinon is best waifu, I always liked her GGO design)
Ginrou: Well, that's probably true. With
Sinon's long-range attack, we're in great shape.
After he finishes, Dyne coughed in his hand
making him turn to his attention.
Dyne: That's right, Ginrou.
Ginrou: Well... if, and I do mean if, Sinocchi
were to miss..
Ginrou stands up and pointed his gun behind
him.
Ginrou: I'll buy us the 60 seconds she'll need
to move and reset the enemy ID information.
Dyne: Listen to you.
Ginrou: So anyway, Sinocchi.
Ginrou said as he sneaks up towards Sinon.
Ginrou: You're free after this? I found a gun
shop with a great selection, and we could go
hang out afterward.
He looks at Sinon's body with a smile.
Sinon: I'm sorry, Ginrou. After this, I've git some stuff to do in the real world today.
Ginrou: I see. Are you a student in real life, Sinocchi? Got a report to turn in.
Sinon: yes, well...
Member 1: hey Ginrou, can't you see you're putting Sinon on the spot? You shouldn't bring up real world problems here.
Member 2: He's right. Just because you're lonely solo player in both world!!
Ginrou:💢 Hey, come on!! You guys haven't gotten lucky yourselves in years!!
After he finishes, the two players laughed in
unison as Sinon looks at them and look away,
covering her nose with her muffler.
Dyne: Cut it out, you guys-
Player #3: They're here.
One of the players who was scouting said as
everyone in the group grew silent and Sinon looks at him.
Dyne: Then it's finally time.
Dyne said as he takes the binoculars from the
scout member and he looks at the area the hunting squadron was in.
Dyne: Yeah, it's them.
He looks more closer to squadron and counted them.
Dyne: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 in all. There's one more than last week, huh?
At this, Sinon opens the lids of her weapon
and takes a look at her scope. She zoomed in
closer at the hunting squadron just as Dyne
speaks up.
Dyne: Four in the front row with energy
blasters. One with a high caliber laser rifle.
And... one with a physical gun, a Minimi LMG, That's the target then.
Dyne explained as Sinon focuses on the last
target that walkway behind the other players.
Dyne: the last guy. He's got a cloak in, so I can't see his weapons.
Ginrou: you said cloak, right?
Dyne: yeah.
Ginrou: could it be that guy? The one everyone's talking about....Death Gun? Or even The Fallen?
Dyne: No way. As if those two guys like that really existed!! He's probably a full STR build courier. He's carrying all the items they've scored, plus ammo and energy packs. We can ignore him during the battle.
Sinon looks away from her scope and looks at Dyne.
Sinon: I'm getting a bad vibe from that man. The first one I'd like to go after is the man in the cloak.
Dyne: why? He's barely even armed, Sinon.
Sinon: no reason. I don't like him because he's an unknown, that's all.
Dyne: by the same token, that Minimi is an obvious threat. If he gives you trouble and those blasters move in, it'll get ugly fast.
Sinon; understood. My first target will be the Minimi. If possible, the next bullet will have the cloaked man's name on it.
Player 3: Hey, we're running out of time to char. Distance, 2,500.
Dyne: all right, we're gonna advance as planned to the shadow of building and wait for the enemy. Sinon, let us know if the situation changes. I'll give you the order to start sniping.
Sinon: roger that.
Dyne: all right, let's go.
They all grabbed their weapons, their items and went down as Sinon was staying. She puts on her headset and looks in the scope.
Dyne: They're in position.
Sinon roger that. No change in the enemy's course or speed. From you, the distance is 400. From here it's 1,500.
Dyne: they're still far off. Can you still make it?
Sinon: no problem.
Dyne: alright. Commence sniping. I'm counting on you, Sinon.
Sinon: roger that.
She looks on one of the players.
Sinon: Pressure like this....Anxiety like this. Fear like this. Distance, 1,500? That's like tossing a balled-up was of paper into a trash can!! That's right....compared to that day!!
She pushes the trigger of her sniper rifle. The bullet was far as it hits one of the players that carried the Minimi as she gotten a head shot.
Sinon: next...
She chambers her sniper and shot another bullet but the cloaked player dodges the bullet. She looks out of her scope and looks around.
Sinon: Can't change my position...First target, cleared. Second target, failed
Dyne: Roger that. You sit tight, Sinon. Go, go, go!!
She then took her hand off of the boom microphone as she holds her sniper and looks at the sniper's scope to see that Dyne and the others members were moving closer to enemies. She looks at her teammates, then at the enemies, and lastly the cloaked guy.
The cloaked guy took off his cloak revealing
that he has a huge body, broad shoulders, is
nearly 2 meters tall, and seemed to be wearing a large backpack at first, but this turned out to be his GE M134 Minigun, connected to a large capacity ammunition box via a belt. He also wearing massive goggles that covered his face and hid his expression.
Sinon's eyes widen in shock and fear as she saw the man and his weapon.
Sinon: is that a....M-minigun? That party wasn't moving so slowly because of an extended hunt, but because the weight of that Minigun incurred a Movement Penalty?
Sinon began to shake in fear as her team went towards them. Ginrou looks his UMP's iron-sights and shot the enemy player damaging him and giving him a game over. He went behind a large rock for cover and reloads his clip.
Ginrou: just like we thought so, these chumps are no big deal!!
As he said it, the cover was getting shredded by bullets as he got out, he was hit badly by the Minigun and gotten a gameover as everyone was shocked.
Back with Sinon who look at the battle
through her scope, she saw that the Minigun player smirking on his face, she stand up from her place and ran to the side to help her teammates.
Sinon: that look in his face...
Sinon said in her mind with a determined
look.
Back to the battlefield. Both teams are still holding their own place as the enemy team is now hiding while being shot by Dyne and the
others. Dyne then notices a red line at him
and his teammates as he stops shooting.
Dyne: Here it comes!
As he and the others ducked under the cover
to dodge from the Minigun attacks.
Dyne: Damn. Don't let him get any closer!
Player #1: Understood!
He and the others stand to counter by shooting back at the Minigun guy but he manages to hide behind the pillar. Meanwhile, Dyne looks around him.
Dyne: there's no way to hide, huh? Dammit!!
He looks at the smoke and sees Sinon running from the smoke.
Dyne: Sinon?
She sees red lines and dodges the energy shots. She sees a wave of red coming from her location and jumps up dodges the bullets. She lands near to Dyne.
Player 1 and 2: Sinon!!
They ran towards Sinon as Dyne spoke.
Dyne: those bastards...Those bastards brought a a freakin' bodyguard!!
Sinon: bodyguard?
Dyne: I mean that Minigun-player. He's a macho bastard called "Behemoth."
Sinon: if we keep hiding like this, we'll be wiped out immediately. That Minigun should be out of rounds soon. If we attack at once, he might think twice about mowing us down. Jin and Miso, you go left. Dyne and I will sweep them from the right. Arashi, you can back up from here.
Dyne: that's not gonna work. They've still got three guys with blasters left. If we were to rush them, our defense shield's effects will...
Sinon: automatic fire from blasters is slower than live ammo guns!! We can dodge at least half of them!!
Dyne: it's not gonna work!! Even if we charge them, we'd oh get shelled by that minigun!! Sorry, but we're packing it in. If it means watching them gloat, then we might as well log out right now and...
Sinon: logging out wouldn't give us an out.
Dyne: for god's sake!! It's just a game, don't take it so seriously!! Even if we charged towards them, we'd only die for nothing...
Sinon: then die!!
Then she grabs Dyne's coat and pulls him to her face.
Sinon: let's see you fie facing the barrel of a gun in-game, at least!!
Everyone was silent as Sinon lets go of Dyne's coat.
Sinon: three seconds should do it. If you can distract the minigun, I'll take him out.
Everyone: g-gotcha...
Sinon: all right, let's split up. We're attacking at once from both sides!!
Them: right!!
The enemy team were waiting as Sinon and her team were back to back. The three players look behind Sinon as she counts down.
Sinon: go!!
Arashi shoots bullets out from his <M4 Carbine> as Dyne's team got up and charges up. The enemy team shot energy blast as Sinon dodges the blast. Two of them were going to shot but covered as Sinon takes out her <Lightning Hawk> and shot her bullets. The enemy players got up and were going to shoot.
Sinon: Dyne!! Cover me!!
Dyne pulls up his SIG SG550 and shoot his bullets. Sinon dives to the ground and looks her sniper scope to Behemoth and shot a bullet which he barely dodges but his goggles were destroyed. He was going to push the trigger but Dyne shot him causing Behemoth to stagger and miss Sinon.
Dyne: how do you like that, you bastard!?
He looks up to see Sinon was gone. She was behind a large rock to hide. She sees Dyne's shield taking hits until the effects wore off and he was losing his HP. He got up and screams as he charges towards them.
Dyne: the hell with you!!
He was shot on his face, he turned into polygons and gotten a game over. A grenade was thrown.
Enemy Player: all right, got him!!
The grenade hits a pillar and exploded defeating two players.
Sinon: nice going!! But..Somehow I've got to enter Behemoth's blind spot...
She looks around as she looks up on a building.
Sinon: right now, he can't pinpoint my exact location..
She rushes inside the building as she ran upstairs.
Sinon: that man has the strength to smile in the battlefield.
She jumps up from the broken stairs and continues running.
Sinon: I'm going to kill that man. And then I'll also...
She reaches to the top and scopes in but Behemoth has his Minigun ready and smirks. Sinon jumps off the building as Behemoth's minigum bullets shot Sinon's leg. This gotten
Behemoth to start to laugh thinking he
already winning. But then his eyes widened in
surprise when he sees Sinon is able survive
the attack. Behemoth kept shooting bullets at Sinon as she dives from the air while aiming her sniper towards him. But then Sinon got closer and closer and aim her sniper at the Behemoth head.
Sinon: the end!!
She shot the bullet towards Behemoth's head gaining a headshot and insta-killing him.
This gotten him a game over as he turns into polygons and Sinon rolling to ground.
(Back at the real world)
Sinon opened her eyes as she blinked a couple
of times when she realizes now she is back in
the real world She currently laying on her bed with AmuSphere on her head and now it was late evening. She then takes off the AmuSphere
from her head and lifts her right hand at the
sky as she makes a pistol sign with her hand.
After a few seconds, she put her hand down
and then put the AmuSphere at the table
behind the back of her bed. She then covers
her face using her left hand.
Sinon: I've got to...I've got to become stronger.
(Meanwhile in ALO)
Meanwhile in ALfhime Online, Liz, Silica, Leafa, Yuna, Asuna and Kirito were dealing with a plant monster. Silica slices a bit of the monster as she ran but the vines grabbed but she'd covers herself.
Silica: I'm not the same girl that I was before!!
It grew wings and she freaks out but she slices the vines. She falls but Asuna catches her, Leafa and Kirito slices the vines apart and Liz was up in the air and slams her mace to the monster's weak point and it was killed. A pop message appeared.
Liz: all right, all right, all right!!
Asuna: is that all?
Silica: did you gotten the materials you gotten?
Kirito: please?
Liz: I've think I got all what I need.
Leafa: we're not done yet by a long shot. Since you always take care of us at your weapon shop, don't be shy, okay?
Liz: thanks but..
Yuna: we pretty much picked these ground clean, right?
Leafa: why don't we take a break?
Asuna: yeah they can respawn back.
Them: okay
Silica then pointed towards a tree to where
Kitsune/Yami and Sachi were sitting. Yami
was laying his head on Sachi's lap.
(If it doesn't work well I'll replace it also I wish that was me)
Liz: It isn't fair!
Leafa: Now, now..
Liz: Jeez! I swear those two spend so much
time both in the Real world and Virtual world.
Kirito: Well, what can I say that it wasn't our
fault.
Yun: After all, we lose at rock paper scissor to
who's gonna give a lap pillow to Kitsune.
That got Liz and Silica to sigh at the same
time, then they look at each other and started
to laugh. At the tree Yui flies and lands on Sachi's right hand as she smiles while Kitsune looks at Aincard. He remembers what Kikuoka told him. He sits up and speak to Sachi.
Kitsune: Hey, Sachi. There's something I want to tell you.
Sachi: yeah, what is it?
Kitsune: I'm leaving...
Sachi: huh!? You're quitting ALO!?
Kitsune: no, I'll be returning but it will take a couple of days, Kirito will be coming with me. We'll return on what we can.
Sachi: really?
Kitsune: you heard the news?
Sachi: oh another death from VRMMO....
Kitsune: right now both me and Kirito will be in GGO. Don't worry about my stats they can't be reset.
Sachi: I was worried that you'll have to reset your level.
Kitsune:*shivers* well it's that guy from the Ministry...
Sachi: don't know why, but I'm not sure if I can truly trust that man.
Kitsune: well that makes three of us.
Sachi reaches for Kitsune's hand.
Sachi; please, try to get back as soon as you twi can, okay?
Kitsune: yeah.
