Chapter 12: Grace’s Decision
“Vigna… are you safe? I mean, that’s…”
I look around while calling to her. Wyverns are small, but they’re still dragons. Although magic can be used against them if you attack in a group. But Vigna whose main fort is close combat should have had difficulty handling them.
Besides, she had always prided herself on her mithril sword, which was only given to knights of the King’s guard. It was hard to believe that she would use a different weapon.
“Don’t worry, I killed all the wyverns that attacked us. I killed them quickly, so I’m certain there was no damage to the people. But it’s amazing what you can learn from another world. It’s called a magic bayonet gun sword, apparently Bowman made it based on your gun.”
“I’m glad everyone’s okay, but then again, Bowman…”
I touch her magic bayonet gun while her words echoed. For the time being, it was good that there was no damage. I use “World Library” with a little peace of mind.
———————————————————————————————-
*Magic Bayonet* a bayonet made of pure mithril and iron alloy. A mithril blade is attached to the tip of the gun. It’s not only for close combat, but also for a variety of other purposes. In addition to close combat, by releasing magic mithril bullets, it’s possible to inflict both damage from the bullets and magic damage when they land on enemies at a distance. A weapon made by Bowman with reference to a gun from the other world.

When firing a bullet, it uses fire magic and also fills the contents of the bullets with magic, so it can only be used by humans who can use magic.

What the hell is this? Bowman saw my gun and applied this technology to make a weapon that’s similar… isn’t this just like that time with the mithril alloy?
“He made it for me. I’ve been so frustrated because I’ve been so useless as a guard lately, but I guess he saw through that.”
She looked a little embarrassed as she said this. But I asked her about what was bothering me.
“But… weren’t you proud to have the mithril sword you received as a guard knight? Didn’t you have any resistance to using this new weapon?”
“Yes, I did. But when Sarah told me, I realized that when I came here, I was no longer a knight of the King’s guard. I’m just Vigna and I’m your companion. My power as a King’s guard knight wasn’t enough to protect everyone. Right now you’re pioneering Asgard as Souzi’s successor, not as the third prince. That’s why I thought I had to change too, because of that, I was able to protect this village like you asked me to.”
“Vigna…”
“I’m able to protect not only you, but also this village. With this child.”
She touched her magic bayonet lovingly as she said this. Her expression was softer than when we parted this morning. She’d been struggling with a lot more than I thought. No wonder. Our environment has changed since we left the castle.
She must have been thinking about what she could do and how she could do it, just as I had been thinking about how to develop this place.

Then I have to change too. In order to protect this village, I still have some resistance in my heart, but I might have to start creating that thing.
“I’m sorry to interrupt you, Master, but I’ve detected some human hostility. It’s possible that the wyvern attack was a man-made event. It’s not too late. Shall I capture them and kill them?”
“No, you can’t do that, Galatea.”
“But…”
I shake my head at Galatea, who looks unusually unhappy. What I’d been thinking would happen someday has actually taken place. I thought that if Asgard stood out a lot, the number of enemies will increase. I knew that someday, someone would attack me like this.
I still don’t know who it is. It could be the Azul Chamber of Commerce. It could be my brothers or my father who had taken notice of the technology I had acquired.
Thanks to Vigna, It was okay this time. But the next time, a more powerful enemy might come. That’s why I need to be prepared.
“Can you follow him without him knowing? He’s probably just a disposable pawn. If that’s the case, let them swim around and find the mastermind. Then we’ll talk.”
“Yes, Master! I understand. Rest assured… if it’s an enemy of this level, I’ll be able to follow.”
Galatea immediately crossed the Guardian chain and ran somewhere and as I stare at her back. I don’t know who we’ll be fighting, but although we have powerful allies like Galatea and Vigna, we’re probably inferior in terms of basic strength.

The advantage I have is my knowledge of the other world. I look at the gun in my pocket, which is a weapon that anyone can use and the “magic bayonet” that Vigna is holding.
In the end, it’s eat or be eaten in this world. Even if you have knowledge, if you don’t have power, you’ll be eaten by the strong. But you can make even the weak stronger with knowledge. Just as I got a weapon called a gun and defeated a monster.
So there’s only one thing for me to do. I’ll create the thing that I’ve been avoiding in my mind… I will create a weapon.

Finally…. it’s time to UPGRADE MILITARY EQUIPMENT~
making “Gunpowder” huh? it was naive to think that he could “survive” in a world that only respects the “strong” without weapons, but it’s nice that he wants to change that, character development in my japanese novel!? what?? hahaha.
Let’s see what happens next.
I won’t say “naive” but he wanted to try to go a different route than his family but he can’t wait that long to get to that point; he still needs to protect himself and his lands because he’s starting from zero.
Too bad comment doesn’t work on the previous chapter but wanted to shout! “gunsword!”
