"Yeah!"

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

　Pesci fell to the ground, motionless.

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

　The response to the follow-up blow convinced me of my victory through the weapon in my hand.

　When Pesci attacked me with the Black Flame from the Nine-Tailed Sword, I was momentarily aware of my defeat.

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

　But my attack surpassed his, if only by a single blow.

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

　I used a magic weapon against the Nine-Tailed Sword with the Black Flame.

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

　However, it is not the nine-tailed sword that I had at first, nor the thunderbolt sword that I gave to my brother Byte and Rion.

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

　I used a hard fang sword.

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

　But it was not the normal hard fang sword that defeated Pesci.

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

　It was a special hard-tusk sword, the only one in existence at the moment.

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

　A weapon that can produce magical effects when enchanted.

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

　It is called a magical weapon.

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

　And the first magic weapon I ever held in my hands was a hard-tusk sword that Gran made from the tusks of a giant boar.

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

　But there are two kinds of hard-tusk swords.

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

　There are two types of hard-tusk swords: the normal type made from the tusks of adult boars, and the type made from the tusks of juvenile boars.

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

　The hard-tusk swords made from the tusks of adult boars are shaped into the shape of a Western sword by Gran, and their hardness increases when magic power is applied to them.

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

　However, the sword that was used to kill Pesci was not this normal type of hard-tusk sword.

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

　It was a hard-tusk sword made from the tusks of a juvenile boar.

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

　The first time Gran made a hard-tusk sword, he gave me both types of hard-tusk swords.

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

　He said that the hard-tusk sword made from the tusk of a juvenile boar was a "weapon that grows.

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

　The swords are so small that they seem to be made for children because they are made from the tusks of young animals.

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

　However, it is said that the weapon itself grows as it is repeatedly infused with magical power.

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

　Nobles and others have kept such growing weapons from generation to generation and cherish them by pouring magic power into them.

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

　The grown weapons are said to be transformed into weapons with performance far beyond that of the normal type.

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

　But I couldn't wait for the little sword to grow up.

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

　I couldn't wait for the little sword to grow up because it didn't grow up even though I sent magic power to it every day.

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

　So I decided to force the sword to grow.

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

　Using Valkyrie's magic.

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

　That's right.

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

　I ordered the hard sword to keep growing by pouring magic into Valkyrie's horns every day.

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

　That way it would grow faster than if I alone poured magic into it.

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

　At first the effect was not so great, but gradually this little sword grew and now I even think of bringing it to the battlefield like this.

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

　In hindsight, it must have been the effect of Valkyrie's [sharing] magic.

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

　All of the magic power of the flock is [shared] by Valkyrie, who continues to pour her magic power into the sword that grows day by day.

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

　The larger the flock, the greater the amount of magic power, and in just a few years, this sword has grown.

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

　The result is the hard-fang sword I now hold in my hand.

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

　However, the shape is very different from the normal type.

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

　For some reason, it has been transformed from a normal western sword to a sword that is warped like a Japanese sword and specialized for cutting.

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

　But this was good.

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

　It seems that this Japanese sword shape was a good match for the hard sword that had grown up.

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

　A single-edged sword with a thin and warped blade would have been easy to break if handled badly.

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

　But even though it has grown, it was originally a magic sword with the property of hardening.

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

　It seems that [hardening] does not simply mean that it becomes harder.

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

　If it only hardens in the pure sense of the word, the weapon would break easily.

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

　However, just as the human body's physical and magical defenses increase when magic is concentrated, this Japanese hard sword has developed into a sword that is extremely hard to break and easy to cut.

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

　And it occurred to me when I saw Pesci blocking the Bite Brother's all-out attack with his thunderbolt sword.

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

　I thought that if there was a weapon that concentrated a huge amount of magical power, it might be able to prevent the attack of the nine-tailed sword, no matter how much it was covered with [Black Flame].

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

　As it turns out, my idea worked.

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

　I attacked the nine-tailed sword with the sword that slipped out of its scabbard like an iai-diri, and as a result, the opponent's [Black Flame] was bounced off the nine-tailed sword, and it cut through the metal armor, which seems to be suitable for the head of the family.

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

"Simple is best. With this sword, even a master with a large amount of magical power can be defeated."

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

　As magical weapons, the Ice Spirit Sword, the Nine-Tailed Sword, and the Thunderbolt Sword look more flashy and attractive.

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

　On the other hand, it is true that I felt that the Hard Fang Sword would only become harder and not gain much benefit even if I poured magical power into it.

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

　But it was not so.

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

　In order to achieve the goal of defeating the head of the clan who boasts overwhelming defensive power, if you strike each other, you can cancel the magic of the opponent and cut through the opponent whose defensive power is such that even blades may not be able to pass through.

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

　There could be no better anti-personnel weapon for the master.

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

"Okay, I think I'll call this thing the Iron Sword Gran Valka from now on. I just cut something stupid..."

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

"Hey, you idiot Ars. What are you doing here? You're surrounded.

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

"What?　Sorry. We took down Pesci, so let's get out of here as soon as possible."

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

"I'm afraid not, Mr. Ars. The Uruk army is not disheartened by the defeat of their commander-in-chief, Pessi, but is instead motivated by a desire for revenge.

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

"Oh, come on, Leon, what do you mean? What do you mean, Leon? You're going to die if you're stuck behind enemy lines like this. Can't you do something?"

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

"......It looks like it's going to be difficult. Let's join with the infantry and reduce the number of Uruks as much as possible. That seems to be the only way."

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

"Seriously?"

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

　d*mn it.

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

　I guess it's one thing to have a hard time.

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

　It seems our lives are no less in danger now that we've managed to defeat Pesci as planned.

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

　I had thought that if we broke out of our position and killed Pesci at super-speed, the other army would lose its will to fight due to the fact that their chain of command would be disrupted and they would have lost their will to fight due to the fact that their leader had been killed.

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

　However, the opponent's movement was different from what we had expected.

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

　Instead of being saddened by my defeat of Pesci, they seemed to have decided to immediately avenge their enemy.

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

　Thus, although they achieved their goal, Barka Graham's army was surrounded by enemies all around.
