Gun-ota ga Mahou Sekai ni Tensei Shitara - Chapter 146
“Meiya!”
“Lute!”
“”Weapon Manufacturing Banzai!””
Our voices overlapped at the time of the meeting.
We moved the luggage from the airship and recently built a workshop in the headquarters of the New pure Maiden Knights.
In the studio, Meiya and I scream together.
I started talking first.
“Today is the first day of production at this workshop … Meiya, can I ask one thing?”
“What do you say, Lute! Don’t ask one, ask 100 or 1000! I’ll answer any question you have! For example, if you ask me about the size of my left arm, I’ll instantly, verbally and with textual detail, give you the answer! Even I’ll bring a bangle bracelet of the same size.”
Wow, Meiya-san doesn’t skip it from the beginning. She rubs her left arm and glances at me with a flickering red face.
By the way, in this world, if a man and woman are going to marry. There is a custom of sending a bracelet. In other words, it is what on Earth is called a wedding ring.
I pretend to be unaware and clear my throat.
“Well, then I’ll feel free to ask you a question. Why is Meiya wearing a maid outfit? And wearing a white coat over it …”
“I heard that Lute sama likes maid clothes. I wanted him to be happy and tried it on… How do I look?”
For some reason, Meiya put on the same orthodox maid outfit worn by Shea’s escort maids and wore her usual lab coat over it. She wears white gloves and a headdress on her head.
It wasn’t about the bracelet so, Meiya had a disappointed look, but I immediately changed the topic, and she made a full turn on the spot. The skirt and the lab coat spread out softly.
“Welcome back, Master!’. Fufufu, how about now, do I please you?”
Meiya bowed to imitate what Shea did and asked for my reaction.
My reaction was–
“Don’t get on with it, sow!”
“Eh?”
“Wearing a white coat over orthodox maid clothes is degrading the sacred formal wear into colored objects. The stupid act of pouring rotten muddy water into a famous and beautiful sake. What’s even worse is that you’re not aware of your sin at all.”
I turn my gaze to Meiya with nothing but hostility. Meiya trembled with tears in her eyes.
“Take off your lab coat now or change into another outfit. Otherwise, I’ll send you directly to the catacombs with my own hands.”
“Hiiiiiiiiiiiii!”
Meiya screamed and hurriedly torn off her lab coat.
I’m not so fond of maid clothes. Rather, I prefer the Chinese dress that Meiya usually wears. However, I couldn’t allow her to wear a white coat over the orthodox maid clothes. The words come out of my mouth naturally.
Why can I forgive the dragon dress (Cheongsam) plus the white coat that Meiya usually wears?
Meiya in an orthodox maid outfit began to cry. She knelt on the floor, put her fists in front of her chest, and lowers her head deeply. It was the traditional pose of the dragon race like ‘dogeza’ in Japan.
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry I’m sorry. Please don’t abandon the most ignorant and stupid disciple. Loyalty to the God Lute, unrelenting, eternal loyalty. Give the sow another chance …! “
Meiya bowed and kept muttering repeatedly remorse, confessions, apologies, pleadings, and loyalty. The tears shed by Meiya clearly wet the floor.
It was bad… I was a little too emotional and angry.
I forced the kneeling Meiya to stand and wiped the flowing tears with a handkerchief.
“I’m sorry for this. I’m a little too emotional. I’m not angry anymore, so don’t be afraid.”
“Hic, sniff, I’m sorry, Oh, Hic, Forgive me, Hic, cough.”
“Yes, I forgive you. So, stop crying now. Your pretty face is ruined. Yes, don’t do it.”
Meiya Dragoon, the most famous on the Dragon continent and a genius magic tool developer recognized by people all over the world, blew her nose in a handkerchief. It’s a scene that was too surreal.
She was still restless, shedding tears, coughing, and sobbing.
You’re a beautiful woman if you keep silent. If you keep silent…
It took about 30 minutes for Meiya to settled down.
I let her sit down, poured tea, continued to comfort her while brewing and stroking her head. I repeated many times that the maid’s clothes look good and that she looked cute.
“So, what will, sniff, Lute-sama make?”
With red eyes like a rabbit, she asked while holding the handkerchief with both hands and covering her mouth.
I started the explanation with more energy than usual to attract her interest.
“I’m going to make combat shotgun.”
“Hic, sniff, cough, a “Combat shotgun? “
First, what is a “shotgun”?
Shotgun, in Japanese ‘Fowling piece’, was developed to shoot birds.
It was even called in the past under the name “wild bird hunting fowling piece” (fowl = poultry, large bird / fowling-piece = bird shooting gun). [TN the author was explaining the characters in Japanese.]
A shotgun called “horizontal double-folding side-by-side” was developed. It was a shotgun with two barrels lined side by side. It could only fire to shots (the reason why the number of bullets did not exceed this was because it was enjoyed as a game).
However, people who went to the United States began to use shotguns not as a game but as daily necessities to secure food.
In World War I, with the advent of the machine gun, it became impossible to approach the enemy. As a result, the soldiers often attacked at night to get closer or dug pits to brought them into close quarters battles. That was the so-called “trench warfare”.
After experiencing trench warfare, the German army developed the Submachine gun. On the other hand, the U.S. military introduced the shotgun, which has been used for many years since the pioneering for daily necessities.
The U.S. military achieved great results by developing a pump-action shotgun and putting it into trench warfare. In this way, the pump-action type shotgun was called a “Trench gun”.
Besides, the U.S. military officially adopted shotguns in the military and used them not only for the military but also for police and riot control.
This time, I’m trying to make a “Combat Shotgun.”
What is the definition of “combat shotgun”? The Trench gun or Riot gun was made based on a civilian shotgun. On the other hand, the “Combat Shotgun” was made from the beginning under the concept of battle.
Shotguns are versatile and able to change the ammunition with a magazine like an assault rifle while retaining the advantage of being able to use non-lethal special ammunition such as rubber bullets, gas bullets, etc.
This time I will make a semi-automatic shotgun “SAIGA12K” based on the AK series.
The specifications are as follows.
■ SAIGA12K
Ammunition used: 12 gauge.
Overall length: 910 mm
Weight: 3.5 kg
Barrel Length: 430 mm
The source is the assault gun AKM, which is an improved version of the AK47.
The barrel of the SAIGA 12K is too short and violates the laws of most countries. Therefore, they created the “SAIGA12S” with an extended barrel and exported it to other countries.
The specifications are as follows.
■ SAIGA12S
Ammunition used: 12 gauge.
Overall length: 910 mm
Weight: 3.5 kg
Barrel Length: 520 mm
This time, we will make “SAIGA12K”.
The barrel length is 430 mm, which is illegal for private use in many countries, but it has nothing to do with us in another world.
The Saiga is based on the AK series, so it is the most easy-to-make combat shotgun for us right now.
If this can be done, it will be possible to invade a room by destroying the door key with a shotgun and not through the window like in the hostages’ case the other day.
I explained the above, omitting the parts that cannot be heard by Meiya.
She still has red eyes, but when she hears the explanation of the new firearm, she regains her smile.
“I see! This weapon can not only defeat the enemy but can also incapacitated it without killing by changing the bullet. As expected of Lute-sama! This flexible idea! God-like flash is why a genius is a genius!”
“Ha, ha, ha, that’s right (stick)”
I made her cry earlier, so I’ll let her worship me to some extent.
Meiya’s eyes shine and she approaches.
“Then let’s make it now! What should we make first!”
“No, wait a minute. There are other things I want to make.”
“What? There are other things besides the combat shotgun!”
“That’s right. Besides the shotgun, what I want to make is…”
Meiya listened carefully to my words.
I told her that.
