I beca out “…What the… is this a puffed rice ?”

“Puffed rice?” Hans made a puzzled face, only for it to be quickly replaced by a considerably satisfied expression next “Ahaha! Yes, I’enius, indeed!

This weapon would prove to be a powerful card inthe peace

“Can you show me the blueprint?” I asked Hans
