Fantasy Assassin in a modern world

Evan Williams was a forty-year-old man. He was someone who loved guns and had a collection of them. He had knowledge on how to use all kinds of guns. He was also a martial artist but a very low leveled one. He seldomly tries to strengthen his inner energy as he was more focused on his guns. 

The cost of collecting and maintaining his guns has been large, and he had been doing many odd jobs to pay for his hobby. So when he received a job teaching someone to use different kinds of guns and was even given a large sum of money to buy the guns that would be used for practice he was ecstatic. This was the kind of job he wanted to do. Not only was he getting paid handsomely for doing what he likes, but he even gets to pick out the guns they were going to use. 

After he was done preparing the guns and the place where he and the student could practice shooting, he called the person who gave him the job. He was then told of the time and location, to pick up the person he was going to teach. 

...

The following day, Evan went to the specified location while driving a van filled with weapons. There he saw a rather handsome man, it was the same man that he was supposed to pick up. He lowered the window of the van as he called out to the young man. 

"Hey, are you Loki?" 

"Yes, so are you Evan my instructor?" 

"Yeah that's me, hop in we'll head to the place right away, or do you have something else to do first?" 

"There's nothing, let's get straight to it." Once Loki was inside the Van they drove off. 

... 

While Evan was driving, he was quite curious about what kind of person he was going to teach. At first glance there didn't look to be anything special about Loki, he just looked like a slightly more handsome young man. 

Evan was expecting Loki to be some kind of nouveau riche person or a snobby second-generation heir of some powerful family, but after seeing him in person that doesn't seem to be the case. Just looking at the things he was wearing which was basically a tracksuit one could guess he was neither of the two things Evan thought Loki was. 

"So, um, what kind of gun is your favorite?" 

"I don't really have a favorite one since I don't know much about guns." 

"Oh is that so..." Evan looked a little downhearted as he thought that he met a kindred spirit. When Loki saw the awkward smile on Evan's face, he had a good guess of what the other person was thinking. 

"Still, I'm interested in finding out more about guns. Maybe after today, I can give you an answer to that question of yours." When Evan heard what Loki said his facial expression changed quickly a small smile appeared on his face. 

"That's right, so later when we get to the site which gun would you like to use first?" 

"This one," Loki took out a large suitcase and opened it showing the parts of the modified Barrett M82. When Evan saw the modified Barrett M82 he almost hit the brakes as he wanted to carefully examine the gun. He had seen quite a few versions of the Barrett M82 and with just a glance he knew that this Barrett M82 was heavily modified. 

"That's a nice looking Barrett M82 where you the one who modified it?"

Loki shook his head as he answered. 

"This was made by a friend of mine, who knows me quite well." 

"Oh, I wonder what kinds of modifications were made to this Barrett M82 rifle."

"That's what I want to know as well." 

"Damn it, I'm getting excited and my trigger finger is itching! Loki hold on to something I'm going to punch it!" Before Loki could respond, Evan already stomped his foot onto the gas pedal making the van speed off. Loki didn't need to hold onto anything as his body didn't even sway from the acceleration. 

...

After a few minutes, Loki and Evan arrived at their destination. It was a private open area with several dozen shooting targets scattered around. Once Evan parked the car he quickly set up a table and placed an assortment of guns on top of the table, after that he looked at Loki's suitcase. 

"Can I please take a look at your modified Barrett M82?" 

"Sure," Loki smiled as he passed the large suitcase to Evan who carefully opened it. 

"This is the smell of a mostly newly manufactured gun." Evan then quickly assembled the modified Barrett M82, the speed at which he did so was quite fast. It didn't even take him several seconds before assembling the thing. Compared to Evan's assembling speed, Loki's was indeed very slow. 

Loki quietly observed the way Evan assembled the modified Barrett M82 and found that there was a technique to it that made the assembly faster. After seeing Evan do it, Loki did some image training and felt like he could do something similar, but with a slightly slower speed. 

"Oh, this thing is incredible! This thing only has the shape of a Barrett M82 but it's practically a different gun altogether."

Evan could no longer hold it in as he quickly got into a prone position, his body was perfectly aligned with the modified Barrett M82, his feet lay perfectly flat on the ground. He then made a v shape with his left hand and gently placed the stock of the rifle in between the v shape made by his thumb and index finger. 

The moment he got into this position, Evan's breathing and even the pounding of his heart became in sync. Evan picked the target that was placed around nine hundred meters away from him, as he breathed in and breathed out, Evan made his shot. The sound the modified Barrett M82 made was silent but the recoil of the shot almost made Evan's body move back. 

The shot clearly hit the target right in the middle, and the metal target was pierced through.. After making the shot Evan felt intoxicated.
