Yin Zidian

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...

Although she never revealed her feelings to her sister, Anna understood that this whimsical adventure had to come to an end eventually. But she did not know how it should end.


The lingering smell of gunpowder also constantly reminded her that Iron Peak County was not safe. What would happen next day, next month, next year? No one knew.


That's why Anna, in a parental manner, made arrangements for Catherine: as long as the roads were clear, she would immediately arrange for someone to escort Catherine back to Sea Blue, regardless of whether Catherine was willing.
