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 54: Reunion with Benwei_2

```

"Alright, alright." Benwei responded to Winters helplessly.

There was a moment of silence between the two, only interrupted by the constant croaking of toads in the small pond outside the courtyard,

"I've heard about the dock situation." It was Winters who broke the silence, "Since when did working at the docks require forming gangs?"

Leaning lightly against a tree trunk and gazing into the distance, Benwei said, "It hasn't been that many years. Anyway, back when my dad worked there, it wasn't like this... Essentially, it all boils down to fighting for work. More and more people have been flooding into Sea Blue City over the years. Despite the hard labor, if you have the strength, you can work at the docks, so the competition has become fiercer. Maliciously undercutting others is the least of it; it's common to beat people half to death in the alleys. If you don't band together, you'll get bullied by those who do, forcing you to form your own group."
