by admin“I have to hand it over to the security guard…”
“It’s a misunderstanding!”
Brown could not bear to see the relationship between the main characters in the original work deteriorating.
Her identity was certain because of the information I heard from my friend.
“Um, Mr. Arwin? That…”
“Hmm…I understand.”
“Thank you! You are a benefactor!”
An incident involving a slight misunderstanding on the way to work ended smoothly with Brown’s intervention.
Afterwards, Brown arrived at the laboratory and had a conversation with the wizard in the living room.
“The guard’s actions earlier were meant to protect me, so please don’t look at me too negatively.”
“Ehehe…I didn’t do well either. What…”
The wizard readily admitted his mistake.
Brown was surprised to see her.
‘I admit this.’
It is a basic common sense in this world that wizards are usually obsessed with the idea that they are the noble chosen people and have an arrogant attitude, and that they are the type of people who never admit their mistakes and become tired when they are involved.
This is easier to check for wizards with lower circles.
But she admitted this so easily.
Not only that, he even showed some reflection.
Even after experiencing something humiliating for a wizard.
Brown was impressed by her personality, which was different from ordinary wizards.
‘Oops.’
This is not the time for admiration.
There was a reason I brought her to the lab.
-chin.
“Nothing different, I would like to ask you what this is.”
Brown said, placing her weapon on the table.
Although it was a bit crude, it was a convenient size to carry and had a metal barrel and wooden body.
Of course, the body and barrel were separated due to the impact when it fell.
“Oh…that’s…”
She looks at the broken firearm with a tearful expression on her face.
“It is a self-defense magic tool made with reference to a gun…”
I know that because I heard it a while ago.
“How does it work?”
“Umm… It’s a tool that simply infuses magic… so you can easily use magic without chanting. Fast as a gun! Bam! Simply shoot and kill enemies at close range…”
It is said that there are two ways.
A method that fires bullets by exploding magical power like gunpowder inside the barrel, and a method that operates purely on magical power.
“The second method has existed before, but the first method is a new type of self-defense weapon. This is easier to use and uses less horsepower.”
“I see…”
‘You can use magic in this way…’
Wizards were making their own weapons by referencing firearms.
Brown briefly pondered whether this would have been subject to patent law if he had been in a previous life.
“When we ran into each other this morning, I was going to tell you that something like this exists. Of course, I was stopped by the guards…”
“So…did Mr. Mars make this?”
“I made it by referring to what another wizard was making.”
“Are these magic tools spreading among wizards?”
“Umm…”
The wizard was pondering Brown’s question.
“It’s half and half.”
It is said that while there are some who find this magic tool interesting, there are also wizards who view it with a negative view.
Is it right for wizards to imitate firearms that only soldiers use, or is it true that wizards should not rely on magic tools?
“What. I tend to view it positively. Of course, it is perfect for self-defense as it can be used quickly.”
Brown, who was pondering while listening to her answer, opened his mouth.
“So, you said that it is a weapon that utilizes the user’s magical power. Can ordinary people also use this?”
Basically, every person in this world had at least some magical power in their body.
Using this to chant magic is another story.
“That won’t work. In order to infuse magical power into this magic tool, you must have a level of mana control ability that meets the conditions of a wizard.”
Brown was slightly disappointed after hearing the wizard’s words.
This was because there was a small expectation that it would be possible to create a clean firearm without gunpowder.
Of course, even if this were to happen, it would have been a problem.
The reason why it has not yet been solved by the public, and the main reason why other countries cannot imitate it, is because the manufacturing method of gunpowder has not yet spread.
In any case, it seemed like he had acquired enough information about magic tools for self-defense.
There were a few more things I wanted to check, but both she and Brown were busy, so they got up around this time.
“See you next time!”
Brown looked at her back and thought.
‘Madogura…’
A firearm that wizards can use.
How can I make it and use it?
It could be developed more creatively, not only by combining it with firearms.
‘what. I’m not even a wizard.’
Still, it seemed like a good idea to plan it out.
Other questions also came to mind.
‘If magic tools spread among wizards… well. I guess it doesn’t matter.’
They are human weapons that can annihilate people in an area if they want to.
It seemed like there was no need to be afraid of magic tools that were just for self-defense.
The next question is…
‘The relationship between Arwin and Mars…if Arwin doesn’t go to the North…um…’
Of course, even though he was worried now, no other solution emerged.
Brown put his worries aside for a moment and set off to send the letter he had written that morning to the North.
***
“Second supply has arrived from the Empire.”
“Hmm. I understand.”
Shotguns supplied with ammunition.
This is a much larger supply than before.
Through this, not only will the number of gunners be increased, but the subjugation of the demon beasts will also be much faster.
“And, here is the letter that came with it.”
The Grand Duke of the North opened the letter and took out its contents.
“Hmm…”
A warning that the reason the number of demonic beasts is increasing is because of the demonic beast forests, and that the northern part of the country could be dangerous if they are not conquered.
There is even information that the attack will become more difficult as time passes.
‘I know this…’
The preceding contents were not special.
The Grand Duke of the North has already confirmed the expected areas where demonic beasts will appear with knights.
Additionally, he was aware that the number of demonic beasts around the territory was gradually increasing.
However, the following information was new.
The danger level of the Forest of Demonic Beasts was assessed.
He began comparing it to the map on the table.
‘Northwest and northeast…and north…’
Unlike the other two Demonic Beast Forests, the Demonic Beast Forest to the north was written to be particularly dangerous.
‘Uhm…’
Who sent this letter?
And how do we know this information?
I had some doubts, but it seemed like there was nothing wrong with checking the information in the letter first.
Where demonic beasts gather, there is a thick layer of demonic energy.
Once you enter the forest, you will be able to confirm whether this information is correct.
In order to confirm this, I had to take a risk, but it was information that needed to be confirmed anyway in order to attack the Forest of Demonic Beasts.
The Grand Duke of the North soon summoned senior knights and issued orders.
“Just figure out the risk and come back. There is no need to overdo it.”
“Okay.”
Of course, entering the Forest of Demonic Beasts is dangerous, but with their skills, they will be able to obtain the necessary information and return.
The knights left the place after receiving their orders.
“Umm…It’s the Forest of Demonic Beasts…”
“I was scared.”
“No. I thought it would be suitable for warming up.”
Knights riding on horseback and having a conversation.
“Still, just in case, let’s prepare.”
Another knight spoke and began to lead his horse.
“Northwest, northeast, and finally north?”
“Correct.”
Zigzagging, northwest is closest, northeast is next.
Lastly, the north was the furthest away.
The first place we arrived at was the Forest of Demonic Beasts in the northwest.
The senior knights dismounted from their horses and entered the forest.
Low-level magic beasts welcomed them.
-Suddenly.
“What. It seems to be okay here.”
“The territory’s troops will be enough.”
After dealing with the charging demon beasts, the knights had a conversation while feeling the demon energy.
“Do not move.”
Next is the northeast.
Once again, low-level magic beasts welcomed them.
A mid-level magic beast was also among them.
As expected, it wasn’t difficult to subdue it.
“I think it might be a bit overwhelming here.”
“But wouldn’t the territory’s troops be enough?”
“Hmm. We need to be well prepared. Go to the next one.”
Finally, north.
This place was different from the other two forests.
First of all, the demon beasts were nowhere to be seen.
However, the forest was infinitely dark, and thick demonic energy surrounded the knights.
One of the knights who was quietly feeling the magic spoke.
“…don’t go back.”
It felt like if I stayed here any longer, I would be eaten by the demonic spirit.
The knights quietly agreed to those words and left the Forest of Demonic Beasts.
After hearing the reports of the returning knights, the Northern Grand Duke began to write a letter after much thought.
***
“Derek. How do you put the bullets in?”
“When you pull the lever, the barrel bends.”
“Oh. Thank you.”
The number of shooters in the squad increased.
A total of three including Derek.
Derek was teaching senior soldiers how to use a shotgun.
“But, did you hear that?”
“What do you mean?”
“They say they will carry out a subjugation operation in the Forest of Demonic Beasts.”
“Wow.”
The news that was spreading among the soldiers soon became established fact through the mouths of the commanders.
