Dwenor's movement stopped..
How can you belittle an academic subject that a precious student is interested in?.
You must be thinking you made a huge mistake..
He continued speaking as if he was embarrassed..
“Perhaps because everyone thought it was inferior to magic, there were only a few books in the library..”
“…….”
“I guess I guessed wrong. There must be a reason why everyone avoids it..”
A regretful expression filled his face..
Only then did the Dwenor begin to move again..
“Hmm, magic is also engineering... … I guess I should bring some related books to the library..”
“yes? There’s no need to do that just because of me.…….”
“Uh- huh! This is the best academy in the empire! If it is a field that is developing recently, you should definitely pay attention! I'll make sure you can see it right away starting tomorrow.!”
“Well, you care so much... … Thank you.”
“Ah, tsk tsk! I can't handle even something as basic as this! Anyway, this place won't go back without me.!”
Dwenor smiled, satisfied with his excellent work..
But this business is not over yet..
I made a fake sad face, and Dwenor responded right away..
“Zero, what's going on??”
“……it's nothing.”
“Uh-huh! Are you going to lie to me too? Come on, tell me. I'll keep everything a secret, so don't worry.”
The intention is to keep the contents of the consultation secret..
I may have said this to protect the student's privacy, but for me, the situation couldn't be better..
I opened my mouth, pretending to wipe away tears..
“I'm really happy to hear that a lot of books on magic engineering have arrived. But isn't there a limit to everything in theory??”
“yes.”
“Especially in the case of magical engineering, it is said that seeing, touching, and examining things is even more important..”
“What you're saying is that you need educational materials..”
“That's right. Books on magic engineering are good, but it would be even better to have a good textbook. for example…….”
“for example?”
“Something like a magic gun?”
I wonder if it was too explicit, but I can't help it..
Because the lines have changed.
‘Just because likability increases doesn't necessarily mean it's a good thing..’
1After the chapter ends, talk to Dwener in the pond alone to receive a magic gun..
Originally, it would have been five sentences, but strangely enough, there was no conclusion, and I had no choice but to speak directly..
Dwenor looked at me intently..
Was it too blatant after all??
“……It's uncharacteristically pathetic, Zero-kun..”
“yes?”
“I guess he didn't think I would just bring in books. Of course, I was planning on bringing in educational materials as well. Unlike the book, it took a little longer so I didn't say anything..”
Ah, that's right. Still, I wish you had told me sooner..
“We need to create a classroom that can cover all teaching materials on magic engineering. Sorry, it will take some time..”
“Well, there’s no need to do that.……?”
I feel like things are getting bigger and bigger..
Why did the hidden piece, which requires only a magic gun after five sentences of dialogue, end up like this?.
“Besides, it's not like I don't have anything to give right now..”
“yes?”
Dwenor grinned..
“It's also a magic gun. A good item just arrived. Wait here for a while.”
Dwenor started running like lightning, fluttering the hem of his robe..
20Has it been about a minute? He came running from far away, panting..
There was a huge magic gun in his arms..
“omg… … omg… … Take it, Mr. Zero..”
“what is this……?”
“It's the latest magic gun. It's a prototype scheduled to be released in the third quarter..”
Annwood Academy, the best academy in the empire.
If you are the president of a place like that, you are bound to receive various gifts..
And among those gifts, prototypes like this sometimes come mixed in..
Although they try to pretend that it is a gift to expand students' knowledge, it is an undeniable fact that it also serves as a 'public relations' role..
The magic gun in my arms.
As someone who habitually used the information window, I couldn't help but be surprised..
‘what? There's a skill attached.?’
[There was one skill called [Overcharge] attached..
I searched my memory, but this is the first time something like this has happened..
In fact, this route was used by anyone who had stagnant water..
A magic gun that can be easily obtained just by talking to it..
It was used to supply gold in the early stages by selling it to stores..
‘The hidden hidden piece has been activated..’
The magic guns I sold at the store alone numbered in the thousands. If you include other users, there will be millions..
However, this is the first time I have seen a case where the [Overcharge] skill is attached..
What happened??
“It's a prototype, but it'll be a little different. They said they would cut out one of the features because the unit price was high..”
“……Yeah, I see..”
“He told me to keep it for ornamental purposes only, but... … Well, it doesn't matter. I'm not going to use it for tearing it down anyway.?”
“Hehe, hehe… … That's right. You don't have to worry.”
hmm… … Because someday it will break down.
So there won't be any big problems. yes?
It was a time when I was rationalizing myself by saying that of course it would be like that..
“……Zero-kun, do you think magic engineering will develop??”
“yes?”
“Didn't you say that you suddenly became interested in magic engineering? Even though other people are negative.”
Dwenor's expression is somewhat serious..
The future of magic engineering. Do I need to talk to Dwenor??
‘……Well, it's true that I got help..’
I decided to give out some information..
If you're lucky, you'll be successful in your investment and be able to make a living two years later, even after the academy collapses..
Don't you think about the impact on the future??
There's no need to think about that..
‘Because Dwenor is an incompetent character..’
At best, you will end up making money through personal investment..
This means that it is absolutely impossible for Dwenor's actions to affect the world..
“……I think it's natural.”
“hmm?”
“Artifacts are evolving every day. A few years ago, we succeeded in creating artifacts that did not use mystical powers. One of them is the magic gun..”
“…….”
“This will be a much more powerful weapon than a bow. The bow is pure power, but the magic gun is pure power plus technical skills..”
Dwenor was lost in thought..
I don't think it's a serious concern. Whether to invest or not, and if so, where to invest.
It's just a thought.
I also calmly lost in thought. Because I had to check the harvest..
‘They're bringing in a lot of magic engineering textbooks... … . If you're lucky, you might be able to get something other than a magic gun.?’
It's not a bad thing that there are books related to magic engineering..
Because I often read books to gain knowledge about this world and find hidden pieces..
But the biggest harvest is still.
It was a magical gun with skills..
It was a time when I smiled at Leger's increased usage(?).
“Looks like there's nothing to worry about now.”
“yes?”
“Hehe, when you become a president, you can tell the true intentions of students just by looking at their faces. Glad I found it helpful.”
Dwenor smiled warmly..
That's not because I'm good at acting.…….
Well, whatever. I just need to achieve my goal.
‘perhaps… … Maybe your crush on me has increased?’
Then it can't stay like this..
Now that we have discovered that there is a hidden piece hidden within the hidden piece, it would be advantageous to maintain a stronger relationship with the Dwenor..
I rushed over with an expression of great excitement..
“President!”
“zero army!”
we hugged each other.
“Always cheer up, Zero. If you have any concerns, please tell me anytime..”
“Yes, Mr. President. of course. The only thing I can rely on here is the great and capable President.!”
I thought while hugging Dwenor..
Kkkkkkkkk! A bastard son of a bitch. I'm busy today, so I'll leave now.
‘I'll rip you off more next time, so look forward to it.!’
Do you know my thoughts or not?.
Dwenor just kept patting me on the back..
* * *
Memories of extortion full of profit... … No, memories of a healing pond full of emotion and tears..
When I remembered that, tears started to flow..
“huh? I told you to speak quickly? What did you do to the president??”
Luna's face got bigger little by little..
He gradually started to show his face and interrogate me..
I thought about it for a moment, but I didn't think it was necessary to talk about what happened with Dwenor..
Because Luna will never understand this beautiful story..
“Hehehe, the process was fair. So no need to worry.”
“……Somehow it sounds like the beginning and end are not legitimate.?”
“Hehe, you're mistaken..”
“…….”
“Huhuhuhuhuhuhu!!”
Was my smile so beautiful?.
Luna slowly stepped back and headed to Leger's side..
“……Let's write it first. If there's a problem, you can pass it on to that guy..”
Luna, what does that mean?.
The person who used it was Leger, so wouldn't it be right for him to take responsibility??
Luna, who was carefully examining the magic gun, said to Leger:.
“From what I've seen, I think I can use it for a while. If it doesn't hit you, you can switch back to the bow in the middle..”
“Is that so??”
“huh. It's true that this is a little better than a bow. Until we get to grips with mana, it might be better to use a magic gun.?”
A little better than a bow? well.
Now, let’s compare..
For bows.
Need arrow → attach to bowstring → pull → aim → fire
In the case of magic guns.
Auto-inject mana → Aim → Fire
The entire process can be completed just by ‘clicking’ the trigger..
You have to shoot the bow vs click.
Anyone will raise their hand to click.
‘Above all, the speed is different.’
The time it takes for Leger with a strength stat of 3 to shoot an arrow..
A whopping 10 seconds.
On the other hand, the magic gun lasts 3 seconds at most..
All you need is the strength to pull the trigger, so it's the perfect weapon for Leger..
Still, you say it's a little better than a bow. It's absurd.
“hmm… … Should I use it as a sidearm too? I guess it's not that bad until you can handle mana..”
It's not a bad idea for something that came out of Luna's head..
but.
“Hehe, you'd better stop. It's harder to use than it looks.”
“Is that difficult? If you just shoot, you won't get hit.?”
“Let's give it a try.”
Luna did not hesitate. After infusing her with mana she immediately pulled her trigger.
Tung!
Kwaang!
“……?”
A huge question mark appeared above the heads of all three of us..
Because the mana bullet flew into the air..
I shot it in a straight line, but the mana bullet headed towards the ceiling..
The shooting score is 0, but the art score could have been given 10,000 points..
“Lu, Miss Luna! You are truly amazing! Maybe you can shoot like that? Me, never to me! It's absolutely impossible!”
Leger shouted with his eyes sparkling..
……Does he also have pure evil traits? A genius twist.
Luna said, brushing her hair..
“Hehe, if it catches me, it’s about this much..”
……It's Luna.
That's not a compliment.
