Holding a sword, Kazumi Saito ( A character from one of my works) looked at me, the writer, looking a bit confused.
" A sword versus gun fight?"
"Yeah."
"Any magic allowed?"
"Then it becomes a magic versus gun fight, so......no."
"Then there's no need for a fight, I'll just surrender."
"Why? Haven't you heard of the 21 foot rule? You're fast."
"What is the 21 foot rule?"
There's no way he didn't know about it.
"Well, in Chinese there's a saying which goes as the followings: "A distance of 7 steps or more, the gun is faster, but when within 7 steps, the gun is......"
"Is faster AND more accurate."
"......" That's of course not how it goes.
"Oh yeah, and it's also deadlier. "
"......will you accept a fight or not? "
" I won't. "
" Well, guess I'll have to find someone else......"
"Correct me if I'm wrong, I'm the only character you created who mainly uses a sword"
"The only Main character. I have supporting characters who uses a sword."
"Over half of them didn't even have a name! "
"......" Point taken.
"I can always create a new character. I'll name him Tom."
"What a random name. Did you even try to think of one?"
"No I didn't. He won't appear again in my other works anyway."
"Fine. And he......"
"Is a guy who uses a sword and won't refuse to an invitation to a sword to a gun fight."
"That's way too specific."
"Fine! I've created Tom and he's now at a sword to a gun fight!"
"Understood. Keep going."
"And Tom and his opponent bowed and shook hands."
"Not bad. Keep going."
"And they backed up to their positions, the gunner already pointing his gun at Tom."
"The referee said '3,2,1,go!"
"Tom needed a miracle."
"Sadly, Tom was shot in the face and died."
"(sigh) He lost to a guy who didn't even have a name!"
