Considering the game's complexion, I almost nosebleed because how on earth will I make an OC embryo lol? I have to look up for more materials to match up to his skillset.

The OC MC came from military background. His father is a retired British SF and his granduncle on his mother's side, a retired ex-SF. He got marksmanship, gun handling, and CQB skills thanks to it. He's still young but he got exposed to target shooting, airsoft, and milsim

The rows of clothes hanging on the line appeared to be moving because of wind and today's weather earlier. Those lines in front were…well what appeared to be a clothing line because that's my grandfather and parents told me when I asked them earlier before we went the Happy Musang Cafe's range to watch my granduncle, Johnathan Hernadez, a retired Philippine Scout Ranger, to show me his intention of passing off his marksmanship skills and others to me in the future once I reach legal age. The range itself was for target shooting and archery, both of which got some employees there in that section.

My vocabulary and my manner might seem bit weird due to having adults around and the way I was educated..but I'm currently a 6 years old boy.

"Watch me closely, Caesar. This is how our family- a family of marksmen and sharpshooters do dating back to Napoleonic Era." said granduncle John, a laying(?) lively old man who readied his Lee Enfield No.4 Mk.1 (T) sniper rifle (a harmless and safe realistic beam rifle type duplicate variant for shooting competitions) to its place as he readied himself to aim. " As one of the snipers in our family.. for this case of holding this kind of rifle, one of the things to know is to control your breathing and maintaining your posture and focus. The same thing can be said to archery."

My granduncle, Johnathan Hernadez, like my family members, we get along like always and I love them. That's what my elders, family and parents taught me for basic Filipino values including our family values and traditions of what makes us, us. About my first impression of him when I met him two months ago for the first time, I was sort of shy because I never saw him once but my grandparents and parents often mention his name whenever they talked of him and his role in Marawi Siege and military career. As days go by that time of him looking after me while my grandfather from my father's side, Grandfather Feli, also publicly known Juan Felipe De Legazpi, the first Prime Minister of Fifth Philippine Republic, do his duties as the politician in the Philippine to make the country recover from the pandemic that harmed the world itself including the population which started last 2019 or so before I was before those times or period, we became closer as I got to hear how he and his team single-handedly eliminated last of insurgent reds and other surviving terrorist groups during his military career, how he switched to target shooting and airsoft after retiring, and how he taught Dad some of his military skills and secrets before he discharged from his military service and turned to airsoft as a hobby and starting up a successful business alongside his buddies from his military service with it including airsoft guns and workout that included target shooting and drills.

' How cool.' I thought, super impressed, watching him.

"This posture is called prone. " stated Granduncle John as he readied the gun for firing. "Back in my day before I joined the Scout Rangers officially as an ex-marine, the experimental training regimen I had, showed how much timing and observation to make the shot count away from yards and the direction of wind and other factors including our body movements and reactions. Normally, gun handling 'military-style' is fine in airsoft and a must-have fun for competitive teams. But what I am showing you today is how snipers, not marksmen, handle their sniper rifles for this case of target shooting using prone position."

Watching him, I saw his finger, pulled the trigger.

"BANG!"

I am not even sure what to do with this.

Oh, man, cut this SF crap for your special snowflake character. It is annoying as hell. Make him Royal Marine or something, but not father was SAS and his granduncle Green Beret or what?

"He got marksmanship, gun handling, and CQB skills thanks to it. He's still young but he got exposed to target shooting, airsoft, and milsim."

This is contradictory at best. Since when do you get gun handling and marksmanship from airsoft and milsim? Doubtful unless he carried real arms.

And last but not least, not all SF guys are engaged in the shooting department.

Thank you for your feedback, I'll make adjustments. It's not really official or anything but a thought.

This is the wrong section for this post. This is for writing prompts, not for reviewing works.
