Upon hearing those words, Vanessa was startled and looked at Arthur in confusion.
"The demand for weapons has increased by a thousand percent?" she asked, frowning as she slowly shook her head. "If that's true, we'll make a huge profit. But... it sounds impossible. Unless..."
Her voice trailed off. Her heart began to race, and her eyes widened.
Noticing the change in her expression, Arthur chuckled softly and nodded. "Yes, you're right. There's only one thing that could cause this—war."
War is the most feared thing in the world. Death, destruction, and the loss of loved ones—those are nightmares more terrifying than anything else.
But there's an old saying from the Roman era: "In every chaos, there is opportunity."
War may bring fear and devastation to most, but not to everyone—especially not to merchants.
They are the ones who benefit most, particularly weapons merchants.
The kingdoms involved in the war would need weapons, and that demand leads to unimaginable profits.
