Konstantin's remark made Eugene stand up like a dumbfounded man. Housing people in the castle really meant a completely different approach to the functioning and maintenance of its internal systems. And although the sewerage, water supply and heating were originally designed by Olga as fully centralized communications, almost no one used them.
Vampires easily tolerated low temperatures and calmly solved hygiene issues with the help of personal magic. The whole fantastic engineering idea of the vampiress was still idle or had not been realized at all. And now all of it abruptly needed to be in working condition and available, not in plans.
- I'll go talk to my wife about it. It would be good just to sink..., but we have nothing to sink with, - Eugene whispered and turned around and went back.
Konstantin went to his office alone. Svetlana Lvovna and one of the vampires from Mikhail's blacksmith team were sitting in the waiting room, opposite to the smiling Yulia. The presence of the former psychologist was easy to explain; the girl was maniacally persistent in proposing plans for world domination, and every new such plan was brought to the attention of the Triumvirate.
But what the blacksmith forgot in the waiting room was completely unclear, but it soon became clear, as the man was the first in line. Without a word, he placed a wooden box on the Triumvirate's desk and offered to open it.
- Motherfucker! - Konstantin was only able to utter when a real revolver appeared in his hand.
It was a monstrous weapon, like something out of a Police Academy poster, and it seemed to be the kind of gun that Tuckleberry was armed with.
(*American "Police Academy" character)
- And the ammo? - The triumvir looked at the gun with childlike delight.
- I've made ten so far. The alchemists don't make gunpowder for me, and I don't have lead for bullets, so I have to make them out of swamp iron," said the man, who was an ordinary locksmith in his homeworld.
- How did you make the primer?
- I had to do some magic there.
Harmless phrase, in this world had a direct meaning, and apparently the man really great magic, because the exact composition of the explosives used in the primers, Konstantin did not even close to know. Although they may have been known to the "inventor" of small arms.
- And how does it shoot?
- I haven't tried shooting it yet, but it should be fine. I've been working with metal for a while.
- What else can you do?
- I can make a Kalash (AK47), a Mosinka, a TT. The rest I'll have to think about. I've only ever held them in my hands.
