Chapter 70: Battle of Clavicule 1 (6)
One by one, the new weapons that he was so proud of were revealing their flaws. Despite this, there was no sense of urgency in Tullius' expression. Neither did Uni show any overt change in emotion. It was as though none of them expected much from the muskets.
"Well, it's just a disposal of our overstock. We don't have to worry so much about it....... Anyway, Uni, what's the current time?"
"I think it's about 14:53."
Despite the hurried battlefield control, Uni answered without even looking at her watch. As an experienced thief, she can tell the time by checking her internal clock based on her biorhythm. She was confident that if she wanted to, she could keep her sense of time even if she was trapped underground for a week or two without the sun.
Of course, the man who had created her did not doubt her answer.
"If we can stick around a while longer, do you think the sun will start to set?"
"Yes, master. It's autumn in the mountains, so I was wondering if the time of sunset would be earlier."
"If that happens"
"Yeah"
They exchanged affirmations as they listened to the clamour of the battlefield in the distance.
Tullius smiled leisurely, while his attendant lowered her eyes as if in prayer.
"Its my victory." "Master has won."
The outcome of the battle was clear to both of them.
