Being Strong On Your Own

Chapter 28: Ancient Weapons

Grey, Anabeth and Arina go on two horses, where Grey and Anabeth use the same horse.

Instead of using the train more efficiently by going like this. Arina opened the map and pointed to the left of the two intersections before they continued their journey and rested after reaching 5 km away.

"I thought the guns were here, but I didn't think they'd put them in a weapons development area."

"Do you know anything about that?" asked Grey who gave the roast to Anabeth.

"Yes, once this place became the development of firearms, you only need to pull the trigger then the tin arrow will penetrate your enemy easily."

"There's such a weapon."

"It looks dangerous" Anabeth added.

"Like that but still in development, depending on the user if the weapon is used by a good person it can change the situation but if otherwise it will have a bad impact if used against humans as well."

"Why was the city abandoned?"

"Because the weapon needs a large amount of gunpowder to be used, I heard that the only mine in this place has been overrun by undead... they're not interested in the gunpowder but just the rock inside, do you think we can use that weapon?"

Grey says that the odds are not zero, he should use the entire ace in his hand.

The gunpowder consisted of sulfur, charcoal and potassium nitrate, with the presence of Arina who could use alchemy techniques all going smoothly.

Grey checks the route they are about to cross and finds a trail of new horseshoes along with the wheels of the carriage.

"It seems like it's not just us who want to go there, seeing this direction must be a trace of the Neira kingdom."

"Does that mean it's good if the kingdom uses it?" asked Elizabeth from the horse.

"No, I doubt if they'll give their weapons to the border. they'll only use to protect the capital just that."

There were some men in knight clothes who were assigned to guard it while others started to stuff the boxes into it.

"This is the territory of the Vardes kingdom they really have no rules" Arina said.

"They've been like this for a long time, I'm gonna sneak up and grab the whole gun.. Arina and Anabeth, you secure our important weapons."

"Sure, according to the map of the kingdom there are four points of secret rooms in this city I'm sure one of them leads us to the weapon we're looking for. let's Anabeth."

"Good."

When the day changed, everything started moving. Grey sneaks between the trains and moves all his luggage into his storage ring, Grey feels it might be the second delivery they've made, they couldn't have just brought this many trains if they didn't know the exact number.

Grey was attracted to a long box of chests and when he saw the contents inside was a little girl with silver hair and gothic clothes.

"Well!"

He was really surprised.

"Who's there?"

He was soon discovered but did not forget to carry the girl on his shoulder before running away.

"Wait you?"

Grey had the advantage of moving at night and in an instant his whereabouts disappeared, he hid behind a tree as the knights passed by while muttering.

"Actually who is this girl?"
