"Explosive?"

"Well, actually, it seems that Father's idea at the time might have been like that, using Jujutsu Papers of Wind to increase the speed of the bullets, and then using explosive Jujutsu Paper to enhance the power of the bullets. This way, it is convenient to carry and also has a certain level of destructive power."

"So, that's how it is..."

Ryuto could only respond with a bitter smile.

No, this doesn't seem right. What do you mean by a certain level of destructive power? Those bullets when fired would practically be cannonballs. Even if it doesn't have the power of a rocket launcher, the power is definitely not small, and it can be fired continuously. Moreover, the speed, though not as fast as a sniper rifle, within the range of a handgun, that kind of speed is quite threatening.

And it's easy to carry and stuff, this could very well be a new weapon, not only convenient for assassination but also for combat.

Perhaps to divert attention, Ryuto scanned the small studio once again.

Maybe because the attire of the previous black-clothed person was too conspicuous, so only now did Ryuto notice another object hanging on the wall.

"Is that also a gun?"

Ryuto pointed to something on the wall and asked vaguely, because that thing was very strange, at least Ryuto had never seen it before, it was only after seeing the barrel and trigger that Ryuto realized it was a gun, and it was silver.

Upon hearing this, Crepes·Deckray's tone had a slight change, but to an ordinary person, there was no discernible difference.

"That was also made by Father."

Although it sounded calm, there was a hint of anger mixed in it.

But Ryuto didn't pay much attention, just asked with some confusion, "What's different about that one?"

"If there is anything different, it's that, that gun can only accommodate one type of Jujutsu Paper, and it can only install Wind Jujutsu Paper."

"Ah... Is that like an experiment? In order to create the kind of handgun that can be compatible with two types of Jujutsu Papers like yours?"

Thinking in this way is not actually strange, if you want to make one compatible with multiple types, you'd surely start from adapting to one type, this is the most basic of basics.

Although this inference is very correct, but...

"No, that was made by Father afterwards."

Receiving the denial from Crepes·Deckray, Ryuto was more concerned about something else.

"Afterwards? Is it made after those two guns?"

"Yes, that's right."

Crepes·Deckray closed his eyes and nodded.

"But isn't it strange? Since a gun capable of accommodating two types has already been made, why make that one, and especially using Wind Jujutsu Paper, if it were other types, it would be understandable as preparation for the next step, making a gun that can accommodate three types of Jujutsu Papers."

"No, it's not strange. Father's initial goal was to create specialized guns."

"Specialized guns?"

"Yes, a design philosophy opposite to using multiple Jujutsu Papers."

Upon hearing this, Ryuto seemed to have realized something.

"Could it be that Duke Crepes's goal is to create guns with special abilities?"

"Yes, actually, to be precise, although guns that can accommodate multiple types are useful in general situations, they are not effective in certain special circumstances. For example, mine has an advantage in close combat, but not in long-range shooting, the range is not enough, after all, no matter how modified, it is ultimately just a handgun, it cannot compare to a sniper rifle."

"So, is the goal then...?"

Because he remembered what Crepes·Clair had just mentioned, that the gun only contained Wind Jujutsu Paper, based on the characteristics of Wind Jujutsu Paper, it was not difficult to deduce the inventor's goal.

To this, Crepes·Clair just nodded helplessly.

"Ah, it's precisely to create a handgun that surpasses all sniper rifles."
