"Was the Bite Brother right to use that family name?　Isn't the Barthes family similar to the Barca family, and isn't that complicated?"

"No, on the contrary, it's nice to be related to Barca. From now on my name is Bite van Barth. Nice to meet you, Ars.

"Oh. I'm counting on you, brother Bite."

　Deciding that we could no longer hold out in this camp, I sent Bite and Leon to do the naming.

　Both of them now had about 300 men who could use magic.

　In particular, I think that the older Byte brother has become much stronger.

　Originally, after I became an independent knight of Barca, I entrusted the training of soldiers to my brother Bite.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He was the one who trained the soldiers and disciplined them.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It was not simply physical training.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He was also training them to improve their magical power.

　Ordinary people have less magical power than I do.

　I mean, since I was a child I consciously trained myself to improve the quality and quantity of my magical power by experimenting with various things.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I take in magic power from the air to increase the amount of magic power.

　When I eat food, I gather magic in my internal organs so that I can take in more of the food's magic along with the nutrition.

　The magic power from the outside is then mixed with one's own magic power in the abdomen and boiled down to a thick paste.

　This is how he trained.

　And my brother Byte knows this methodology.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I did not hide this method from him. I told my family about it before I became a knight.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I have also told them how to use magic power to activate magic and how to make it into spells.

　My brother Kyle has developed his own magic that I cannot use because I taught him how to do it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　My brother Byte has yet to create his own original magic, but he knows how to train his magic, and he practices it himself.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　And he teaches this training method to his soldiers in their daily training.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Although the theory is completely based on my own senses, the soldiers who have listened to this training method and trained with it have gradually shown its effects.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　And the effect is easy to understand for those who have the Barka surname.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　There was also an easy-to-understand method of determining the effectiveness of the training, as those who had previously only been able to use [Landscaping] became able to use [Wall Construction] through magical training.

　In other words, the soldiers who were trained by the Bite Brothers in the Barka Knight's Domain had higher magical power than ordinary people, even if they could not use magic and lived as farmers.

　They were the ones who were given the name of the Bite Brothers this time.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The Barthes, the new name of the House of Bight.

　Although they named roughly the same number of people, the Bite Brothers are now stronger than Rion, who is just a bunch of untrained peasants hastily gathered from the newly established Graham Knight Domain.

　Well, both of them have improved their magical power considerably, so this might work out.

"But, I should say after naming them, the number of those who can build the wall has also increased after Bite-Brother named them. Is it possible, after all this time, to change the policy and build a lot of walls and endure for five days?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Yes. That may be possible. But I have just noticed something that was pointed out to me by someone else.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"What did you notice?　Leon, what is it?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'm sorry. It's the food. It seems we are running low faster than I calculated.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Food?　Could it be that the [black flame] has burned you out?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

No, that's one thing, but not quite. There is no food for Valkyries.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Valkyrie's?　...... Well, under the circumstances, I can't grow hatzkas."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Yes. Until now, when we built the encampment, we improved the land inside a little [to improve the soil] and grew hatzkah. We used to use it as part of the food for the Valkyries. It seems that this was ruined by the [black flame]."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I see, so the food that was brought in for the soldiers was given to the Valkyries as well, and it was running out fast."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Yes. It seems that we consumed more than we had calculated. I didn't realize it until just now. ....... I am sorry."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Okay. I was only paying attention to make sure the food storage area wasn't on fire. I guess ...... means there wasn't enough food to last another 5 days to begin with. Well, it's convenient in a way."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Why, Ars. What's so convenient about not having food?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Yeah. We'll eat all the food we have left today. Then we won't have anything to eat. This means that unless we charge into the Uruk army, destroy the enemy generals, and break through the enclosure, we will die. Everyone will fight to the death.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I don't know what it's called.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It's called a "backwater battle," where the allies have no way to escape before the battle, and then everyone becomes desperate.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　If we can do more than a cornered rat bites a cat, we may be able to break through the Uruk encirclement.

"Oh, and I'll give this to Leon..."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Isn't this the Thunderbolt Sword?　Are you sure?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"No, I mean, you have to have it. I mean, you have to have it. I have the Nine-Tailed Sword and my brother Bite has the Thunderbolt Sword.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Thank you very much. Then be my guest. But it's amazing. Just a few days ago I was a member of a fallen former knight family, and in no time at all I've become a knight of the realm with a magical weapon.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"We're just a bunch of hungry peasant kids. But I don't want us to burn to death here! We're going to beat Pesci and escape the siege for sure!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Yes, Ars. All right, everybody, get ready to eat. We're going to fight as hard as we can.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Yes. Let's do it, Mr. Ars. I put the future of the Graham family on the line for you. And it would grieve me if you were to leave me here without your sister.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Thus, we ate what might be our last supper and decided to attack the Uruk army.
