Steel, Explosives, and Spellcasters

Is Magic really just a wish machine? No! In a universe where Magic truly exists, the ultimate nature of Magic must be as simple and aesthetically pleasing as the laws of physics. This is the story of a mass-produced magical war tool who learned the ultimate nature of Magic. But what of it? Just as birds can fly without understanding aerodynamics, magicians can use Magic without grasping its ultimate nature. Learning the ultimate nature of Magic doesn't mean the tool can instantly transform into a great magician. But yearning for knowledge is a human instinct, and curiosity is the primary driving force of human civilization. Even for Magic, which should seemingly defy explanation, humans hope to understand its inherent operational laws. The pursuit of Magic's ultimate nature requires no reason! The story in this book takes place in an era where steel and gunpowder dance together. Here, firearms are on the rise; armor remains the main character; military theory is changing rapidly, with endless innovations in systems and techniques. And this world has something more than ours: Magic. The world is undergoing a profound transformation, and no one can remain detached from it...

Chapter 103: Rivers

On June 20th, ten full weeks after his injury was set, the tribe's healer removed the wooden mold from Winters' left leg.

"Does it hurt?" Erhulan asked with concern.

Winters shook his head.

After two months, the broken leg that had been mended was finally reunited with its owner.

The owner of the left leg had put on a bit of weight, and his complexion had greatly improved—the diet of the herders was too high in fats and proteins, and his previously sunken cheeks and eye sockets had visibly filled out.

But his left leg had lost weight, the muscles atrophied, making it look like a straw compared to its twin brother, his right leg.

The tribe's healer pinched Winters' injury inch by inch.

Then he bent down to his leg and gently tapped it with a small wooden hammer.

"[Herde Language] Edun," the healer respectfully said to Erhulan, "[Herde Language] Batu can walk now."

Erhulan was overjoyed, presenting the healer with many gold and silver jewels as a reward.
