Chapter 36: The first code of conduct

Varina's second attempt at rapid fire missed, but the scene was nowhere near as nerve-wracking as the first.

With his constant control of his firearms, the tension that could have led to an unexpected at any moment was gone.

The waiter in the red vest saw such a change in the distance, and his thoughts about going to the supervisor were much lighter.

Forget it, more is better than less, this gentleman doesn't look like a novice with an unsteady gun.

That's it, look at it from a distance a few more times, and if there is no problem, then it is better to pass it like this.

Then, under the increasingly shocked gaze of the waiter, Varina's progress was tremendous with each shot.

He hit the target for the first time on the 13th and the second on the 17th.

After the 23rd shot, he hit the target 10 meters away with almost every shot, well, except for the 27th.

The waiter couldn't believe it was Varina's first attempt at rapid fire.

He thinks that's how it should be - this gentleman used to be good marksmanship, but he hadn't touched a gun for a long time, so he went through a process of rehabilitation.

Well, that's reasonable.

After 30 rounds, Varina sat back on the couch not far away and rested on the small table next to him.

After more than ten minutes, Varina rested enough, picked up the top hat on the table, and left the club.

Walking along the road, Varina couldn't help but mentally compare the speed at which he practiced shooting before and after drinking the potion.

He found that the two simply couldn't be compared side by side.

That's a lot!

Previously, he felt that he was making good progress, and that was because he was comparing himself to ordinary people.

After becoming an "assassin", he practiced at a speed comparable to that of a veteran's rehabilitation, and the progress was simply appalling.

So, to be extraordinary, to some extent, is a shortcut to climb the social ladder.

And the playing method is a shortcut to climb the sequence.

Heh, a shortcut within a shortcut?

The corners of Varina's mouth unconsciously showed a cold smile.

……

Unlike the rapid progress of shooting practice, Varina's progress in language learning has not accelerated much.

Obviously, whether it is the "Assassin" potion or the extraordinary abilities that spontaneously emerge from their bodies, they do very little to improve their intelligence.

Varina has recently devoted much of his language learning to Hermesian, and as for Gufsak, he keeps his memory fresh by reviewing it every day.

Linguistics is meant to be used, and if you don't use it, a lot of things will be forgotten very quickly.

Varina didn't have the need to use these languages for the time being, but after some consideration, he decided to create one of these for himself -

He was going to make up a handy notebook that involved a lot of extraordinary knowledge.

The benefits of this are numerous.

First of all, he was able to fulfill the lie that he had made to think that his parents had left occult books.

Second, if anyone is interested in the occult books he has previously scrambled, such as Hugh and Firth, then he had better have such a book.

Moreover, he could use such a fabricated book to rationalize the source of his transcendent knowledge.

Eventually, he was able to concoct some copies of Russell's diary in such a large notebook, which he would later use to gather Klein's wool.

Finding a way to practice and use the language and writing that has been learned, without the extra effort, can reap so many benefits in passing, and Varina is of course very motivated.

"'Magicians' don't put on unprepared shows, and neither do 'Assassins.'"

The "assassin" kills people only for a moment, and passers-by can only see the achievements of that moment, but until that moment comes, no one knows how much effort the "assassin" has put in and how much preparation he has made.

Varina felt that this was the first code of conduct he had summed up.

In fact, he felt that the "Assassin" needed to be prepared more than the "Magician", after all, the "Magician" would get a laugh if he failed, and the "Assassin" would lose everything if he failed.

So, let's start by preparing a book on the occult.

Step 1:

Varina recalled some of the more profound knowledge of the otherworld, and as long as it wasn't too secretive, she wrote it down in her notebook in the Gufsak language that she had already started.

This step alone should take a lot of time to assemble enough content and knowledge to support such a quantitative concept.

By then, it may not be certain that Varina will be familiar with Hermes, and even Giants.

Of course, it doesn't matter, it's the follow-up that matters.

Step 2:

The contents are roughly divided into categories, and those that are easy to understand are put in the front, and those that are difficult are placed in the back, and they are re-transcribed, and the front is in Rune, then in Gufsak, then in Hermes, and even in Giants, and so on.

In this way, the entire occult book has been written in terms of content, and the only remaining flaws are probably spells such as divination.

The final key step:

Dilapidated and tattered this occult book, and then re-transcribed it.

In this way, even if someone gets it for divination, they will only get the picture of Varina copying the book, and they will not be able to find out that the book is actually made up by him.

……

Another day, at eight o'clock in the evening, at the end of West Villas Street.

Dressed as a worker, wearing a beige coat, a peaked cap, and a dark coarse cloth scarf, Varina came to the door of the house where the meeting was going and knocked on the door with the rhythm of the newspaper.

Soon, the door opened, and the waiter gave him a glance and made way of the way.

Everything was almost the same as the party a month ago, except for the absence of two ladies and ......

He is already an "assassin" of Sequence 9.

Because of her experience at the last party, Varina approached the two large blackboards in the hall and browsed through the trading needs on them.

He was mainly looking for Hugh and Forth's codes.

After all, all his current funds add up to just over two hundred pounds, and he can't afford anything that can be said to be of little value, let alone keep money to live.

He didn't make any money for the time being, but he spent as much as 9 sules a day, which was nearly 14 pounds a month.

Among them, the main daily expenses are nothing more than 2 soles for food, 1 suler for accommodation, and 6 sules for practicing shooting bullets, which is far from a luxury.

Varina looked at the blackboard and found no agreed code.

So, when the waiter came over and asked Varina to write the request on a slip of paper and turn it in, he decisively wrote the agreed code on his side-

"Sell one page of Russell's notebook, £10."

This trading demand will neither be very conspicuous nor will anyone pay attention to it, after all, 10 pounds for a piece of waste paper, except for Russell's die-hard fans, no one will do it.

Of course, there are exceptions for those who have agreed on a code.
