25 – To the Battlefield of Maslantia(1)

“It’s finally done.”

Early morning.

At the news that the weapon was completed, I rushed to the forge.

“Are you really okay? As I said many times, this is not a weapon, it is a suicide tool.”

Floren said with a worried face.

“Don’t worry, I won’t die.”

At my words, she sighs and hands me her weapon covered in her rags.

I received it with a trembling heart.

It feels like facing your first love in middle school.

‘Is this my first weapon in my life….’

How much I ran around like dogs to find them.

I’ve been through a lot of annoying things, but it feels like I’ve been compensated for all of them.

I carefully removed the rags, as if taking off something innocent.

Soon after, the design of platinum that stretches out in a curve catches the eye.

‘Wow… So damn pretty.’

The mouth opens naturally.

Luxurious patterns decorated with gold in platinum shone splendidly.

“Isn’t it beautiful? It’s a symbol scientifically designed to lower the value of mana resistance. In addition, it has a weight reduction magic, so it wraps around your hand. And if you look at the handle @#$@#… “

I couldn’t hear Floren’s words.

There is a Maxim pictorial in front of you, so how could a documentary or something catch your eye?

As if possessed by something, I put the shotgun on my shoulder and got into form.

As if it had found its owner, it was the perfect size for my body.

“… It’s in It’s a caution, are you listening?”

“Okay, I want to try it right now.”

Floren sternly cut me off.

“No, if you’re going to die, die alone.”

“Is that enough?”

“Yes, as you said, I ignorantly raised the output value. Everything around will be a mess.”

So said Floren, adding her own words.

“I recommend not using that weapon. The moment you pull the trigger, you will die.”

I picked and laughed.

“It seems like they keep dying and dying. Don’t worry. ‘Cause I’m stronger than you think More than that, I will definitely repay this favor. Do you want anything?”

“I just need a quiet place to experiment.”

She was her answer.

I nodded her understanding and looked inside the smithy.

Come to think of it, I can’t see one person.

“Where is Taliesin?”

“I noticed it very quickly. The boy went to sleep. I stayed up all night for three days.”

‘It must have been a lot of hard work.’

It must have been very difficult to complete.

It’s the first weapon you’ve ever seen, and you must have designed the operating principle yourself.

If it weren’t for the two of us, this weapon wouldn’t have been complete.

I thought so and opened my mouth.

“Tell them to find me when they open their eyes.”

Since I received help from this side, I thought I would definitely compensate.

I don’t know what Taliesin wants.

“Are you leaving already?”

“Yeah, I need to test the weapon. The laboratory will be ready within today.”

“It’s fast, good.”

From noble mtl dot com

“Then, see you later.”

“Wait a minute, we need to decide on a name for him.”

Floren pointed at the shotgun I was holding.

“The name of the weapon… “

I had already decided.

“Blunderbuss. That is the name of this gun.”

I said that and left the smithy.

I wanted to test this weapon soon.

**

The place I found was the Monarchy.

“This is it. You can test it comfortably here.”

As I thought, Dermian knew the right place.

The location was on the back side of the castle, where you can see the ridge, and it was quite suitable as a test site.

“It’s okay. I can see the target.”

In the sky, a bird of a kind I have never seen before is flying around.

Looking at its hideous appearance, it seems to be a type of monster, but it was perfect for testing.

‘Now, let’s shoot.’

I put the shotgun on my shoulder.

And then, with one eye closed, he placed his eye on the sight seat.

A bird looks like a dot through the sight.

‘Maximize your vision.’

The figure of the bird became clear as if it were right in front of my eyes.

At this level, you should be able to hit it.

No, honestly, it doesn’t matter if I can’t match.

Anyway, this gun shoots dragons in the face.

I held my breath and fixed the target.

And then, indifferently, I pulled the trigger.

-Quaaang!

Magic energy shoots out in a spiral with an ear-piercing sound.

At the same time, my expression was stained with astonishment.

A huge mana stalk opened its mouth and began to swallow everything in front of it.

The monsters and green grass floating in the sky turned into powder and disappeared.

The ridge in front of me was dented and burned like half-eaten ice cream.

‘…… Crazy! This isn’t a shotgun, is it a bazooka?’

It was truly crazy power.

I’m beginning to understand why Floren is said to be a suicide weapon.

The fact that my body wasn’t pushed by the recoil means that the recoil was so great that it could endanger my life.

For example, a broken spine or a severed nerve.

In addition, the red gun looked very hot even at a glance, as if it had been scorched by fire for a long time.

Without the defense, my hands would have melted in an instant.

‘… What if I shoot this in the face?’

Just thinking about it made me dizzy.

There is no doubt that it is a direct route to Hwangcheon-gil.

“As expected, you are the monarch.”

Dermian gave a short exclamation while clapping beside him.

Obviously, he was also surprised by the power.

“You must have noticed.”

However, one of my eyebrows went up at the words that followed.

‘What did you notice?’

I looked at Dermian without a word.

I had no idea what he was trying to say.

“Since you said you were testing the weapon, I was going to handle it quietly. I didn’t know you were talking about testing it on a rat.”

‘A rat?’

He said that and walked in front of him.

And how long has it been?

My pupils widened.

Of course, Dermian was dragging a human wearing a robe.

‘… What, when did that start?’

“It seems that he was curious about the newly appointed 7th Lord. Well, it’s common.”

Dermian said that and threw the human onto the floor.

“These are the entourages of the warriors who have not yet accepted defeat by the demons. Sometimes they hide like this and come back.”

“… !”

I looked at the burnt man with a puzzled face.

He groaned and was dying slowly.

‘Damn it… An aide to the hero?’

Then it was also on my side.

Basically, they were also in a position to confront the demons.

‘… Did he get caught up in it because he was there?’

However, unfortunately, he is included in my shooting path and is wandering between life and death.

“Can you cure him?”

“You are thinking of interrogating me. Unfortunately, he is on the verge of dying, so it will be difficult to save him with my own strength.”

Deremian lowered her head as if she was sorry.

Tsk, she clicked her tongue and looked at the man.

‘Poor bastard. Please, go to a nice place.’

All I could do was pray for her to rest in peace.

It was a mistake on his part from the fact that he came in my shooting path in the first place.

Then, a question suddenly came to my mind.

‘Wait, come to think of it, why didn’t I see the level?’

That question did not last long.

Judging from the level of the fallen guy, it seemed to be a matter of distance.

If you are farther away than a certain distance, the level will not be visible.

“Bury him.”

He slung the blunderbuss over his shoulder and said.

Darmian, hearing me, opens his mouth.

“Okay.”

**

“Is this the start?”

Just after the previous incident, I sat in my office thinking.

‘It looks like the warriors are moving soon.’

After humans were defeated in the war against the demons.

The hero was mortally wounded by the overlord and disappeared.

Humanity surrendered, pointing the finger at her, saying that she had abandoned them.

In reality, it wasn’t like that at all.

She was only concentrating on recovering from her wounds and was conserving her strength to drive out her demons again.

And now.

‘How much has the body recovered?’

Judging from the movements of the hero’s aides as before, it seemed that they were preparing for a counterattack little by little.

This is good news for me.

The reason I became a monarch in the first place is to suppress the power of her demons until she recovers.

– Smart.

As I was thinking that, I heard a sound from the window.

When I turned my head, I saw a crow.

‘… Is it the overlord?’

I got up and opened the window wide.

The crow flaps its wings and comes inside and opens her mouth.

-Hello~ 7th Lord, long time no see?

“Overlord, long time no see. What are you doing here?”

-How can you not do that stiff tone?

“Let’s try.”

– To lie, I don’t believe it.

“I want you to stop talking nonsense and get to the point.”

– It’s cold. Just to see what you’re doing. I have something to ask of you.

‘… A favor?’

I started to feel bad for some reason.

Isn’t the fact that the overlord omits the people below and has the overlord do the work?

“I will listen.”

– It’s simple. I just want you to go somewhere. It’s been a while since you became the 7 lord, and there is no one more suitable than you.

“You missed the most important thing. Where are you going?”

– Maslantia.

‘!’

I couldn’t help but be taken aback by the overlord’s words.

It was a battlefield there.

-I want you to come after annihilating the humans there.

‘What… ?’

My expression twisted at the words that followed.
