"If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't believe that a Southeastern Province could gather over two hundred magic crystal cannons!"
Governor Piers exclaimed.
The lack of widespread use of magic crystal cannons wasn't just because they were expensive; the huge consumption of magic crystals was another crucial factor.
In the past, nobles had limited shares of magic crystals that they could exchange from the kingdom, making it difficult to train magicians, let alone maintain those gold-eating beasts known as magic crystal cannons.
Having cannons without sufficient ammunition reserves is purely ornamental and costs a large amount in maintenance.
This situation persisted until the discovery of the magic crystal mines, alleviating the Southeastern Province's shortage of magic crystals.
