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 30 The Sound of the Bell

Hundreds of soldiers marched briskly toward Deerhorn Town.

Strangely, there were no troops wielding halberds and wearing armor to maintain order, nor officers riding high-headed horses and dressed in splendid uniforms.

Only soldiers, and nothing but soldiers.

A rider came from the opposite direction, squinting his eyes, trying hard to find his superior among the soldiers.

A bald man impatiently waved his arm at the rider.

Relieved, the rider happily ran to the colonel, saluting automatically.

Gessa slapped away the rider's hand in a fit of anger, "How many times have I said it? No salutes!"

The colonel had also changed into coarse clothes, his face smudged haphazardly with soot.

But no matter what he wore, his shiny bald head was too eye-catching, so he had also gotten a dirty hemp freedom hat.

At a glance, this baldy actually did look like a rough peasant—just a bit too plump.
