"That's good to hear!"

Retracting his gaze from the crow, Mika looked toward the distant streets.

"Since we're already in the Imperial Capital, let's take a good stroll around!"

"Sure! I was just thinking about seeing what that merchant called a 'living hell.'"

Mellie said with a light laugh.

"You probably won't see that during the day on the Imperial Capital's streets."

Shaking his head, Mika led Mellie and Airmid toward the bustling avenues.

...

"So, how should I put it?"

After hours of wandering, the three found an open-air café and sat down to enjoy some drinks.

"This place gives off a blend of ancient and modern vibes."

Leaning back in her chair, Mellie shared her thoughts.

"That's only natural, isn't it? After all, the Empire has existed for a thousand years."

"Over a millennium, its various institutions have decayed continuously, but with the passage of time, new and novel things have also emerged. That's why you feel this way."

"If you want the best example, aren't those guards over there?"

Following Mika's gaze, Mellie and Airmid were momentarily stunned.

They saw a nobleman accompanied by two armored guards.

But the guards' weapons were guns?

And not spears or polearms, but firearms that could shoot bullets.

"I see. Because this world has warriors who can enhance their strength through training, even though firearms were developed, they could never become mainstream."

"Thus, the development of firearms was limited, leading to a coexistence of cold weapons and firearms."

"After all, to those generals who can take on thousands single-handedly, firearms are practically useless."

Mellie immediately understood why this world was so peculiar.

Powerful individual combat strength safeguarded the old systems, preventing new innovations from challenging them.

They could only serve as supplements.

In the Hunter world, Nen abilities are kept secret through rigorous Hunter examinations.

But in this world, warriors exist openly within society.

Therefore, societal development is stifled.

"But such a world feels rather dull!"

Mellie couldn't help but say.

"It feels like there's nothing here that can enhance our abilities."

Hearing Mellie's complaint, even Airmid nodded in agreement.

In the previous worlds:

The magic and magecraft of the Type-Moon universe.

Nen abilities from the Hunter world.

Even the Breathing Techniques with profound philosophies from the Demon Slayer world.

All these brought Mika and his companions immense gains.
