With Fatima's rifle in my hands, I could provide covering fire for her. The magazine of the rifle contained five shots, giving me five chances to help. However, given the large recoil from using her "true" bullets, I could only fire it once every half a minute at most.
The first time I tried using Fatima's true bullets, my ribcage got smashed into powder. Just remembering the excruciating pain from when my ribcage caved in, my trigger finger trembled.
Fatima, who passed her only weapon to me, was fighting against the Void Beast barehanded. It was quite a sight seeing a large beast and a human, the size of its palm, engage in a brutal and almost equal melee.
Still, due to the difference in mass, Fatima was losing ground. Wounds were appearing all over her body as she kept getting hit. Then, when she parried another punch, her foothold shattered, sending her off balance. The Void Beast aimed for this opening and was about to land a decisive blow. At that moment...
*BOOOM*
