Chapter 260 – 27. Mula Wave.

* * *

“No! Who is this!”

Count Ellin, who was taking a walk with the group, saw a familiar face and approached with an exaggerated gesture and voice.

After the establishment of the great Habsburg kingdom, it was Viscount Milkis who was assigned to the territory of Agneel, and who could be said to have been demoted.

“… Countess.”

Milkis made a disapproving face, but bowed politely.

Haha. Nice to meet you How many years has this been?”
“Less than a year.”
“Is it? I missed you so much that it seemed like a lot of time had passed.”

She casually put her arm around Viscount Milkis’s shoulder his.
Milkis glanced at the obnoxious thing slung over his own shoulder his, but he said nothing.

“Okay, how is life there? It’s a pirate den, so where did you get into danger?”
“It is not as underdeveloped as you might think.”
“Okay? Good luck then.”

Disbelief eyes.
Elin continued.

“Well, don’t be too disappointed. Even if it’s actually a demotion, I’m sure I’ll be able to make a comeback someday. Think of it as a vacation.”
“I don’t think it’s a relegation.”
“Haha! Is it? A positive mindset is important no matter what. Okay. If you persevere, His Highness will understand your sincerity.”
“….”

Ellin, who patted the shoulder of the silent frowning Milkis a few times, left with a refreshing smile.

In the end, ‘You were demoted? She giggled and spoke to her to taunt her, but she had nothing of her heart her for her.

Milkis sighed as she looked at Elin’s group as they walked away.

“A person with no character like that is a central aristocrat. I’m worried about Her Highness of Her.”

It’s not actually a demotion, but even if it is, it’s rude to come and tease someone like that.

The unfortunate thing is that most of the nobles who came to the Great Kingdom were like that. At least there was the Terrin faction, which held down the Elin side, but the Elin faction, which had a large number of high-ranking nobles, had a force that could not be ignored.

She stared in the direction Elin had disappeared for several minutes before turning her body her away.
Anyway, I have work to do now.

The place she headed was the Algray Magic Tower.
It was to check various guns on behalf of Katarina, who couldn’t see what he was doing.

Personally, I didn’t think it was a great weapon.
Hearing it, and actually delivering it, the range was less than 50 steps, and the hit rate was terrible, so I thought it was rather baggage.

But, Katarina said, if this develops, she may change the history of war.
If you look at the title, Milkis is superior, but it is definitely a body attached to the Agneel domain. He had no choice but to follow her opinion of her.

“Sometimes he does the right thing… I can only hope that what he thinks is true.”

Even though she was worried, she arrived at Agneel Magic Tower with the help of her maids.

There was a destructive sound coming in the middle of the day, because of this, it is said that the protest of the nobles that the house price is falling.

“Yes? You are….”

There were passengers there.
It was Count Ebena, who is currently dividing the nobility of the Great Kingdom with Count Elin (excluding the Terrin faction, of course).

“Your Countess. Hello.”

Unlike Elin, she had a fairly open mind and was especially supported by young aristocrats.

“Nice to meet you. What’s going on here?”
“I came here because Lord Agneel said it was a weapon that would change the history of war in the future.”
“Ugh. Okay. Coincidentally, I have the same idea, do you want to see it together?”
“I see.”

The two women went inside, talking to each other.

“I was waiting.”

Mooning, the owner of the magic tower and currently the hottest power, greeted the two.
Listening to her words of her, it seemed that there was an appointment with Elin in advance.

“Is this person…?”
“My name is Viscount Milkis. He is the person in charge of inspecting the Agneel estate.”
“Ah!”

I clapped my hands saying that it was nice to see Mooning.

“You were one of our biggest customers.”
“Yes… What….”
“You must have come to see weapons, right?”
“Yes. I came here because Baron Agneel said it was a weapon that would change the history of war in the future.”
“Oh, oh my, such excessive praise… Of course, I think so too. Hehe….”
“….”

She thought Mooning was a little distracting.
The ever-changing facial expression and tone of speech….

“Anyway, come here. I prepared it in advance.”

As Mooning said, on the long table, there were piles of new-looking guns and strange, pointed cylindrical objects.

And next to it was a large canvas with her mouth open.

“Hmmmm. I’ll tell you in advance, but it’s difficult if you think about what you’ve seen so far.”

Munning, who rhymed her majestically, spread her arms wide to where her guns and guns were listed.

“These kids are state-of-the-art! It can be said that it is the best weapon of this era.”

It was unnecessarily grand.

“Has the range problem been resolved?”
“Were there any accuracy issues?”

To the question of the two nobles, Mooning only smiled and did not answer.

“Whatever you imagine, you will see more.”

After she clapped her hands a couple of times, her students her hurriedly moved.
Then, skillfully maneuvering, she inserted a similarly large pointed cylinder into the mouth of the large canvas.
It was the size of a person’s face, but at a glance it looked quite heavy.

‘Are you saying that they’re using those things as shells?’

Like guns, artillery had serious problems with accuracy and range. But the destructive power was enormous.
However, it was quite questionable whether it would fly properly when it was used as a shell of such an ignorant size.

It wasn’t just Milkis’ idea.
Even Ebena, who was looking rather favorably by her side of her, had similar questions.

But.

Those doubts were dispelled with the launch.

As always, the shells fired with a majestic roar had a range, accuracy, and destructive power unlike anything seen before.

Despite flying hundreds of paces, it hit the target with almost no error and caused a huge explosion.
The two women’s mouths fell almost at the same time as Mooning raised her spirits with an ‘Ahem!’

“What, what? What just happened? Is it a coincidence?”

Even if the hit was a coincidence, the range and destructive power could never be a coincidence, but the two women were so surprised that they couldn’t even think of it.

In particular, Milkis, who was not expecting much, was even more so.

“Whoops. This is not the end. The important thing is this.”

Munning picked up a pretty tastefully crafted gun.

“This guy’s model name is Ebena 1. She was specially made for the Count.”
“Oh, for me?”
“Yes. Would you like to shoot yourself?”
“I’ve never dealt with this before?”
“It’s okay. The advantage of guns and cannons is that anyone can handle them as long as they know how to use them. Especially in the case of this gun, even a child can handle it if it is a woman.”

Mooning placed the gun in her hand and handed her a strangely shaped piece of metal.
That was a new concept bullet.

“Now, first, open this lid and put three of these ‘bullets’ in it. All you have to do is press it hard.”

Milkis unwittingly complied with her words her.
After opening the lid and loading the ammunition, the lid was closed again.
Then he pulled back what looked like a stick sticking out from the side, then pulled it forward again.

“Yes. That’s it. Now all you have to do is fire it, then pull it back and release it after you fire it. Then the cartridge case will pop out through the hole.”

I thought it would be complicated if I just listened to the explanation, but it wasn’t complicated at all.
All you have to do is put the bullet in and reload… I couldn’t believe how the hell they made such an instantaneous progress.

“Is there no need to add gunpowder?”
“Yes. Because it’s already in the gun. That’s how the concept of a shell casing was born.”
“….”

She was aiming at a target far away, even though she was longing.
Of course, she had never handled a gun, and she had never handled a bow, so her posture her was sloppy and her aim her was poor.

But she had a strange feeling that she might be able to hit something.
