Let’s take a moment to process this.

The Cheonsan Group existed even in the previous timeline. Back then, however, the group’s stock prices had hit rock bottom. Why? Because they’d recklessly developed magic-based firearms to counter monsters.

These weren’t conventional firearms using gunpowder or traditional fuel. Instead, they were weapons powered by mana stones. The problem was the massive consumption of these stones. In low-level dungeons, the cost of the mana stones far exceeded the value of the loot obtained. In high-level dungeons, the damage inflicted was negligible, and pouring mana stones into the weapons wasn’t a viable option either.

But what if the targets weren’t monsters, but humans?

Even though hunters are stronger than monsters in some aspects, their physical endurance isn’t on the same level. Unless their bodies are properly reinforced, magic-based firearms could cause significant damage to them.

So why am I interested in these seemingly inefficient weapons? Simple: I can create mana stones out of thin air. In other words, for me, these weapons aren’t inefficient at all.

That’s why I decided to pay Yi Yu-jin a visit.

“What brings you here today?”

Yi Yu-jin greeted me while offering a cup of tea.

Despite leading the Cheonsan Group, she seemed to have quite a bit of free time. Well, her availability worked in my favor.

“I believe the Hunter Association is preparing to launch an operation against Baekhwa, and there’s a good chance the guilds will unite to support them,” I explained.

Yu-jin, sitting across from me, crossed her legs, shifting restlessly. What was she doing? Trying to seduce me? Could it be that she had a vibrating egg inside her?

“So, does this mean our dealings are coming to an end?” she asked cautiously.

“Not at all. I actually came to request some weapons.”@@novelbin@@

“Weapons?”
