Starting with a Military Arms System I Rise to Dominate Another World Chapter 68 : Chapter 68

Chapter 68: Loxi’s Resolve, the News Sophia Brought

Ti flew by, and in the blink of an eye, two months had passed.

The training plan Ryan had laid out had already co to an end.

After two months of grueling training,

the aura and strength of the four won had undergone a complete transformation.

Compared to how they had been two months ago, they were like entirely different people.

Now, they looked like warriors who had stepped straight off a battlefield.

During those two months of training, there had been a great deal of practical combat.

This included sparring among the four won themselves, as well as hunting monsters and more.

Ryan was confident that he could lead them in helping Isabella reclaim control of her family.

It was also worth ntioning that,

during these two months,

Loxi often ca to Ryan to ask about the Desert Eagle.

The problem was that Ryan did not really understand the principles behind it himself.

How could he possibly understand all those technical details?

He had only made it by following the instructions on the blueprint.

When Loxi saw that Ryan had produced many new types of weapons, her interest deepened even further.

One Desert Eagle was not enough to satisfy her research.

With so many weapons now before her, Loxi wanted to study every single one of them in detail.

“A suppressor? It can actually have such an incredible effect?”

“A submachine gun? Why can it fire so many bullets so quickly?”

“A sniper rifle? At such an extre distance, how does it ensure accuracy?”

Loxi seed to turn into a walking book of endless questions.

Every kind of firearm made her raise a long list of them.

Ryan told Loxi everything he knew.

But as for the deeper principles behind them, Ryan did not understand those either, so he could only brush past them vaguely.

For soone like Loxi,

having an entirely new thing placed before her, yet being unable to understand the principles behind it,

was more unbearable than anything else in the world.

She did not know that Ryan did not understand the principles either.

Instead, she simply assud that Ryan was unwilling to share them with her.

For one brief mont,

Loxi had even considered offering herself to Ryan outright.

If she beca Ryan’s woman,

then perhaps Ryan would teach her everything he knew without reservation.

After Loxi shared that idea with Fina,

Fina did not know whether to laugh or cry.

She quickly told Ryan what Loxi was thinking.

If Loxi were allowed to go on like this,

then there was no telling whether she might actually do it.

Of course, it was not that Fina disliked the idea of Loxi becoming Ryan’s woman.

Quite the opposite.

Loxi was an extrely talented Magic Tool craftsman, and she would surely play an important role in Ryan’s future developnt.

It was just that deciding sothing like this on her own without Ryan’s consent was a very bad idea.

It could very easily provoke Ryan’s displeasure.

As Ryan’s childhood sweetheart,

Fina naturally understood his personality.

Otherwise, it would not have taken her so many years for the two of them to finally co to understand each other’s feelings.

If Ryan did not want to do sothing, no one could force him.

After hearing Fina’s words, Ryan could only smile bitterly and shake his head.

What was he supposed to do?

Loxi was convinced that he was keeping secrets from her.

But he really had told her everything he knew.

After thinking for a long ti, Ryan exchanged a blueprint for the Desert Eagle from the System.

The very first firearm he had ever made had been crafted according to a blueprint.

With Loxi’s skill, she would surely be able to produce a finished product by following the blueprint as well.

That way, Loxi would stop bothering him.

Once she obtained the blueprint, Loxi treated it like a priceless treasure and imdiately returned to her workshop to begin her research.

Not long afterward, she successfully made one.

Just when Ryan thought Loxi would stop bothering him now,

one sentence from her left him frozen on the spot.

“Please let beco your woman!”

Loxi stood before Ryan and said it formally.

“Uh... huh??”

Ryan was montarily left speechless.

He looked toward Fina, wanting to see whether she knew about this.

Fina smiled and nodded.

She clearly did know what Loxi was thinking.

The fact that Loxi had said sothing like this today was partly because Fina had encouraged her.

The other won also turned their gazes toward them.

“Ahem.” Ryan gave a light cough, then said seriously, “Loxi, do not joke about sothing like this. This kind of matter requires careful thought.”

“Mr. Ryan, I am not joking.”

Loxi paused, then explained, “I have thought this through very carefully, and I have already discussed it with Fina.”

“If I want to continue researching firearms, then bullets are indispensable materials. Yet only you, Mr. Ryan, have a large enough supply of bullets for to study.”

“Secondly, there are the different types of firearms. Mr. Ryan, you only gave one blueprint, but I believe there must be more. I want all of the blueprints for my research.”

“I know you do not lack Gold Coins, Mr. Ryan, and I would not take your blueprints for nothing. That is why I want to beco your woman. If I do, would you be willing to give a copy of every blueprint for my research?”

Loxi spoke with clear logic and perfect order.

Ryan stood there in a daze.

Could soone really go this far for the sake of their research?

Of course, it was not as if Loxi would be the one taking a loss.

Ryan understood the value of firearms.

He understood even more clearly the value of the blueprints for every firearm.

Back when he had given Loxi the blueprint for the Desert Eagle, it had only been to brush her off so she would stop bothering him.

If Loxi truly wanted to obtain the blueprints for every firearm in the System,

then honestly speaking, she could not afford them at all. To put it more accurately, no one in this world could afford them.

Loxi surely understood that as well.

That was why she had chosen this thod.

As long as she could beco Ryan’s woman, then when she asked him for blueprints in the future, Ryan would definitely agree.

Ryan thought about how, once he established his own faction in the future, he would need to issue firearms to every mber.

When that ti ca, having soone like Loxi attached to the na of those weapons would be extrely important for his faction.

People had heard of Loxi’s reputation.

If it were said that Loxi was the one capable of creating such powerful Magic Tools,

then no one would doubt it.

But if a nobody like Ryan were the one producing such Magic Tools,

then what awaited him would certainly be plunder.

The nobles of this world were even filthier than the capitalists of Blue Star in his previous life.

At least on Blue Star, capitalists still knew how to hide what they were doing when they dealt with people.

The nobles of this world were different.

If they took a liking to sothing, they would simply seize it by force.

Nor did the nobles think there was anything wrong with that.

After all, everything a commoner possessed belonged to the nobles.

It was only natural for commoners to serve the nobility.

That was common sense in this world.

“Ryan, I think Loxi’s suggestion is pretty good.”

Fina ca to Ryan’s side and spoke softly.

Thunk!

Ryan flicked Fina on the forehead.

“Ah! That hurt!”

Fina covered her forehead and pouted.

“That is what you get for coming up with such ridiculous ideas.”

Ryan looked at Fina helplessly.

He knew that if Loxi had thought of this, then Fina’s advice had definitely played no small part in it.

The main wife helping him find other won.

Thank you, another world.

If this had been Blue Star in his previous life,

how could soone like that possibly exist?

Thankfully, this was another world.

Ryan fell silent for a mont, then looked up at Loxi. “Very well. Since this is what you want, I agree. Also, from now on, if anyone asks, you can say that all firearms were invented and made by you.”

“Huh? Huh???”

Loxi’s eyes widened at once.

“N-No, that will not do. How could I lie like that?”

Loxi hurriedly shook her head.

She knew better than anyone how valuable firearms were.

As a professional maker of Magic Tools,

every invention represented countless efforts poured into it by its creator.

No creator would ever willingly hand over their invention to soone else.

Ryan waved his hand. “It’s fine. I have my own reasons. When explaining it to outsiders, just say that.”

“Th-That... alright.”

Loxi hesitated.

But when she saw the expression on Ryan’s face that allowed no argunt, she understood that he had already made up his mind.

There was nothing she could do.

She could only agree.

...

So ti earlier, Isabella had already gotten in touch with her good friend Sophia.

Isabella had asked Sophia to help gather information about her mother.

“Sophia, it’s been a long ti.”

“Isabella, seeing that you’re safe matters more than anything.”

Sophia happily took Isabella’s hand as they spoke.

“Mr. Ryan, thank you for taking care of Isabella.”

“It’s nothing. Taking care of Isabella is only what I should do.”

“?”

Sophia looked puzzled.

But Ryan did not continue explaining.

So Sophia did not pursue the matter.

“Isabella, after I heard what happened to your family, I was terribly worried. And not just . Tina and Rosa were very worried too.”

“It was all thanks to Ryan that I was able to escape here.”

Isabella held Sophia tightly, filled with emotion at being reunited with her friend.

“Sophia, could I ask you to help gather information on the Jurgen Family? Especially information about my mother.”

Isabella made her request.

“That’s very easy, actually. Ever since I learned what happened to your family, I’ve been paying special attention to the Jurgen Family’s situation.”

“Hermann is currently the one in power within the Jurgen Family, but he is only acting as the interim family head. He has not beco the official family head yet. According to the information I found, the family elders are still evaluating him. Only if Hermann passes their assessnt will he be formally established as family head. After all, Mr. Alfred was an extrely capable leader before this.”

“What about my mother?”

“Lady of the House Greta is not in any danger. She has rely been placed under house arrest in the castle by Hermann. Although she cannot leave, her daily life has not been affected. The original servants in the castle are still at her side attending to her, and her injuries have already fully recovered.”

Sophia briefly explained the Jurgen Family’s current situation.

“I see.”

Isabella let out a long sigh of relief.

As long as her mother had not been hard, that was enough.

It seed Hermann was still wary of Alfred’s influence.

Isabella was no longer in Hermann’s hands.

If anything happened to Lady of the House Greta, then no one could guarantee that Alfred would not lose his mind and slaughter all of them.

From Hermann’s perspective, the current situation was already ideal.

By keeping Greta under house arrest, he could force Alfred to hold back out of fear.

Once he passed the elders’ test and officially beca family head,

then even if Alfred returned, it would already be too late.
