“good job.”

I told the two generations who were embarrassed by the fact that they were caught. The 2nd generation looked at me as if they didn’t understand why I was suddenly praised.

“A weapon that is stronger than the current standard firearm is premature. Mass production would be impossible.”

“I thought it would be very scolding. I agree with that.”

The two were relieved and laughed. But he hesitated as if he was grasping something.

“… … One bag, I made it.”

Then he sighed and said.

“bagful? What are you talking about?”

“that is… … I made a gun that applied all the techniques the Crown Prince talked about.”

“… … what?”

I was genuinely surprised by the two unexpected remarks.

“Of course, parasols are impossible! I just tried to make one by pouring all my technical skills into it. It was very difficult to make bullets… … .”

When I was shocked, the two hurriedly added. As expected, did I say it for nothing?

‘I thought the technology of the 2 units was as good as a cheat, but I never thought it would be this much.’

It has surpassed the development of firearms by several generations. I didn’t think that even if it was just one gun, it would make something that came close to a modern rifle.

“That’s great… … . Did you bring it?”

“no. It’s in the depths of the workshop. It’s scary to carry around.”

“i get it. go see it soon I never thought I would actually make it.”

By this point, I felt fortunate that Yangsan was overcrowded. Even the current standard firearms are already much better than the original standard firearms. If it develops beyond this, I honestly have no confidence in controlling it.

‘At that time, I was excited and explained this and that… … I’ll have to refrain from bringing modern technology.’

Variables are sufficient as parabellums. You don’t have to take the initiative to create a variable yourself. I guess it’s already a little too late to realize.

“So, what is the reaction to the standard firearm?”

“I don’t think everyone has realized its power yet. But since I said it well, the education will go on properly. It is only a matter of time before it is introduced into practice.”

“indeed. The future of Azmash Workshop is bright. And damn Ivan too.”

“hmm? Why Ivan?”

When I asked, the two generations wondered and explained as if they didn’t know.

“It was Ivan who invested in the support fund for making firearms. It’s a weapon that the Crown Prince has marked out, so I poured almost all of my wealth into it in advance, saying that it would work out of course.”

“Was it? I had no idea.”

“It seems like you’re already making a lot of money, right?”

“… … indeed. I mean.”

For some reason, I thought it was a strange atmosphere, but maybe that’s why. He was doing funny things without talking to me.

‘I’ll have to catch up and collect money later. Rejoice while you can, Ivan.’

I’m busy with work at the knight academy right now, so I decided to leave it alone for now.

“But when guns are introduced in earnest… … Who is the gun pointed at?”

While thinking about how to roast and boil Ivan later, the 2nd generation spoke in a slightly weak voice.

“… … .”

I didn’t answer right away. It was because he knew that it would be headed toward the people with a high probability.

“The situation in Iron Blood is not so good. It has been like that since Saratov. Even without looking at it, you can tell that the local economy that is not receiving support is almost bankrupt.”

However, it cannot be said that they are innocent people.

“It’s not strange if someone rises up against it at any time. I am preparing for him.”

“Is it the suppression of the rebellion?”

The word rebellion instantly brought to mind the events of Saratov. My stomach felt stuffy.

“… … It will be my job to stop it.”

I added with a sigh. Rebellion in that form is a no-go.

“The introduction of firearms will act as a deterrent against rebellion by their very existence. There is no reason to feel guilty.”

“… … thank you. It’s funny that you’re thinking about something like this for a subject that has been making weapons for a long time.”

The two of them laughed with a slightly relieved expression.

“Well, if the situation is stable without much trouble, advancing to the continent beyond the sea… … .”

While bringing up an appropriate topic to lighten the atmosphere, I stopped talking when I felt a presence. There was someone on the other side of the building.

‘Are you trying to eavesdrop on the conversation? or not… … ?’

I put my index finger to my mouth and signaled to be quiet. Then, faking any possible signs, he looked around the corner.

‘Eugene?’

“… … Whoa.”

A tired-looking Eugene leaned her back against the wall. Haven’t figured out this one yet.

“… … .”

Yujin rummaged in her arms——and took out a cigarette. It was the same brand that some teachers smoked.

“hmm.”

With a skillful movement, Eugene put it in his mouth and took out a match and lit it. Cigarette smoke billows thinly. After taking a deep breath, he let out a sigh.

‘I’ve heard that cigarettes are secretly circulating on campus, but you’re not supposed to be smoking them.’

I’m not some kind of high school bully, what are you doing? Well, at that age.

“A bad student? It’s also at the Knights Academy.”

“… … right, what.”

From noble mtl dot com

I couldn’t find anything to say against the second generation. Because Eugene is now a delinquent student.

“Is it okay if I don’t pay attention?”

“Leave it alone. A banquet is not a very pleasant place for him.”

Eugene continued to smoke without noticing this side as if his head was complicated. It was a skillful move that must have been smoked for quite a long time.

‘The subject, who never drank in the original work, has completely fallen.’

I don’t know how it happened. Anyway, it doesn’t matter.

“Two, go up first. I’ll think about it and go up.”

“Is that so? While I’m here, I’ll have to pick up the main prize.”

The two followed my words and returned to the banquet hall. I saw the two generations off with my eyes.

‘Come to think of it, I forgot to ask if Leta was the name Proud called.’

Thinking of something good, I leaned against the wall and glanced at Eugene. Eugene calmly lit the second cigarette. It’s more like a wolf out of the herd than a bully.

‘At that level, it’s a revolutionary army, and it’s not going to work.’

It will not be easy to gather people to the present Eugene, who is like a lone wolf, who is the opposite of the bright and lively personality of the original work. It may have become stronger than the original, but it has lost its personality.

‘Originally, the firearms were no different from those of the Revolutionary Army, and the muzzles must have been aimed at the nobility, the iron-blooded vested class.’

But not now. Prior to that, the existence of the Revolutionary Army itself had also faded.

In this situation, I have a doubt.

‘Perhaps Parabellum was behind the Revolutionary Army in the original story?’

Looking back at the contents of the original work, starting with the supply of firearms that were not explained in detail, there were not one or two suspicious parts. Supporting those against Sangvis Sangvis is too much to pass over moderately.

And the fact that Lenny, the remaining elf who remained in Iron Blood until the end in the original work, actually belonged to Parabellum added persuasiveness to this suspicion.

‘It is also significant that Eugene knows the sentence of Parabellum. He might have been instigated by Parabellum to start a revolution.’

Maybe it didn’t appear in the original, but I was suspicious that something like that might have happened.

Could it be that the ending of the original work is that everything went according to Parabellum’s will? It was a little creepy.

‘Fortunately, in reality it doesn’t seem to go the way I wanted.’

The current Eugene has no intention of raising a revolutionary army. Although it seems to have been influenced by Parabellum’s thoughts, it never seems to be so.

Now that the revolutionary army supported in the original work has disappeared, what will Parabellum try to do?

‘It’s not even that difficult of a question.’

The answer is simple. We will find a new force to support.

There are many forces who are dissatisfied with Sangvis Sangvis and will follow if they entice them to support them. It is the parabellum that made even the ragtag revolutionary army grow into a threat against iron blood and finally win. Rather, it may create something more troublesome than the original Revolutionary Army.

To oppose him, I need to build my forces.

‘Now that the existence of the Revolutionary Army is uncertain, what if we absorb the members as they are?’

Besides, what if he could attract even Eugene as an ally? If that’s possible… … .

“What are you doing?”

“Ugh?!”

While I was concentrating on my thoughts, Eugene spoke to me and I was surprised.

“Oh no, what are you doing?! In such a dark place!”

“Isn’t it the same as you being in a dark place?”

“… … That’s right.”

I was embarrassed and said something stupid. It was obviously me who was spying on it. looked pitiful.

“Rather than that, I smoke cigarettes or something. What are you going to do if you find out around you?”

“I don’t think it’s specifically prohibited by school rules. Aren’t all the teachers smoking too?”

“There is an image that it is ugly when minors bloom. refrain from it.”

“You look just like my mother.”

that there is no mother. I swallowed the words that were about to come out of my mouth. I never thought I would envy the position of a commoner who had nothing to lose.

No, but there’s no one around, so isn’t it okay to say that much?

“Well, I didn’t have a mother.”

“Are you saying that first?”

Once again, he’s a really annoying guy. This guy played the main character well.

“Is it okay if I stay here? I’m not looking for anyone, but I don’t think you are.”

“I’ve already dealt with enough. The chancellor still hasn’t come. Is that what you call me?”

“If you want me to call you Crown Prince, I will.”

“Ha, f*ck it.”

The feeling of being bowed down is a specification. Eugene then said that he would call me you without hesitation. If Proud or Katyusha saw it, they would be treated harshly for being disrespectful.

“… … I’m asking for confirmation, but do you know that I really am the crown prince? Don’t you think it’s just a nickname or something?”

“I know.”

I asked just in case, but it wasn’t. It’s funny to say now that it was an illusion.

“I’m not asking you to use respectful words, but you’re good at using informal words.”

“Because it’s okay for people in the same grade to use short words. If you cease to be a student, I will honor you.”

“I am looking forward to that time.”

Conversation was interrupted. Yujin and I stood silently for a while.

“Eugene.”

It was me who broke the silence. Eugene, who was about to return, stopped walking.

“If I say I’m raising an army, are you willing to come in?”

It’s a story from a fairly distant future, but I wanted to hear the answer. Because it is an important part in determining the direction of how we will move in the future.

“… … .”

Eugene slightly furrowed his eyebrows. It was a movement close to bewilderment, not displeasure.

“… … Now is not the time to talk about that.”

“What do you mean?”

I immediately asked for an unsatisfactory answer. Yujin quietly shook her head and pointed to the school gate.

“The chancellor is coming.”

A large carriage was being inspected in front of the school gate.
