"Let's charge in, thundering swords!"

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

　At midnight, the Barca cavalry, which had left their positions, launched a surprise attack on Memento's army.

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

　The first to attack were the knights of Barca, armed with thunderbolts.

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

　They had received several thunder swords as part of the payment for their victory over the Arbalests and their claim for compensation.

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

　They used them.

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

　The purple light flashed through the lights that Memento's soldiers, who had been on the lookout, produced with their lights.

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

　The attack was a broad, diffuse electric strike.

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

　The attack caused a rift in Memento's defenses, which were trying to keep the cavalry from entering.

"All right, let's charge! Let's burn the larder!"

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

　They rush in to push open a small hole in the opponent's defense.

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

　I rode at the front of the charge, mounted on my Valkyrie.

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

　In my right hand I hold the ice and flame sword, and in my left the holy sword.

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

　My main weapon, the Glanbarka, which has changed its name from the Iron Sword to the Holy Sword, will belong to the church if all goes well.

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

　But for now it still belongs to me.

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

　The sword that cut through even the hardest dragon bones is still sharp, and in fact, it was this Grambalka that killed the leader of Memento's army.

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

　The existence of this grambalka was a blessing when dealing with a leader who uses his abundant magical power as high defensive strength.

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

　After all these years, I am still worried about giving it to the church.

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

　I will have to make a second Zantetsu Ken (iron sword) as soon as possible.

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

　While wielding the sword, he was attacking with his right hand, which was holding a sword of ice and flames.

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

　This Grand Ars has a mysterious property.

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

　When it is enchanted with magic power, the ice sword extends like an ice spirit sword.

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

　This ice has substance and can cut through opponents.

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

　But that was not the only effect of the Ice Flame Sword.

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

　The ice in the form of a sword can be converted into flames.

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

　Therefore, as soon as the ice sword slices through the opponent, the ice turns into a scorching fire that burns the opponent to the ground.

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

　And that's not all.

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

　When the ice sword extended from the ice flame sword comes in contact with other ice, even the ice turns into flames.

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

　However, there was a third ability hidden in the Ice Flame Sword.

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

　It can attack from a long distance.

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

　I have already made several ice flame swords out of flame ore and entrusted them to trusted partners such as Vargas.

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

　In the process, others had discovered new uses for the ice flame sword that I had not immediately noticed.

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

　It was to activate the [Ice Spear] while holding the ice flame sword in the right hand.

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

　Normally, the ice spear would be fired from the palm of the right hand.

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

　But by muttering the incantation while holding the ice flame sword in his hand, he caused a new phenomenon.

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

　He fired a spear of ice from the tip of the ice flame sword.

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

　However, it was different from the usual ice spear.

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

　The Ice Flame Sword has the ability to transform ice into flame.

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

　It was an ice spear with this ability added.

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

　In other words, if you use the [Ice Spear] while holding the [Ice Flame Sword], the ice spear is shot from the magic sword, and upon impact, it transforms into a flame that can extinguish a person.

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

　This is a very interesting effect.

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

　The same ice spear is flying from the magic sword as when you use the [Ice Spear] normally.

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

　This means that there is no apparent distinction between the [Ice Spear] fired from the palm of the hand of a knight who can use Fontana's magic and the [Ice Spear] made with an ice flame sword.

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

　What if some of the many [ice spears] from Barca Cavalry have a flame effect by using ice flame swords?

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

　The opponent tries to block the ice spears, but they are actually made by ice flame swords, and they turn into flames as soon as they hit the target.

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

　In other words, if you try to defend against it with a shield, the shield itself will be burned.

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

　Moreover, it is impossible to distinguish at a glance which is the ice spear that turns into flames.

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

　This may have something to do with the fact that ice was previously dropped from the airship and burned.

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

　The soldiers of Memento's army who were attacked were in a state of panic when they saw the ice spears that turned into flames.

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

　They could no longer even maintain the composure to defend themselves properly.

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

"That's enough. I will not tolerate any more of your antics! Ars von Barka, I myself will take you down myself!"

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

　The Barka cavalrymen charge through Memento's army, setting fire to food stores and warehouses with their ice lances.

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

　But they are not so naive as to let this go on indefinitely.

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

　At last a man emerges, a muscular man with a magical power that overwhelms all others.

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

　His fine armor gleamed in the light of the lights and the blazing fire in the pantry.

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

　A beautifully decorated Western sword to match the armor.

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

　The man who wears such equipment is probably the head of the class who has been entrusted with this army.

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

My name is Jean Men Brown. I am the great warrior of the house of Memento. Ars, the lone ruffian against the House of Memento. Let me make you rust with my sword.

Thanatos, do it.

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

"Woah woah woah woah!!!!!!!"

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

"What the hell is this big piece of shit?" ....... d*mn!　Oh, it's heavy ......"

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

　I called out to Thanatos as soon as I saw the man, Gene Men Brown, jump out in front of me.

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

　Thanatos, who is not a very good Valkyrie rider, reacted instantly to my call and jumped down from his back.

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

　Thanatos howled as he landed on the ground, tumbling down to the ground.

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

　And at the same time, the magic was activated.

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

　Thanatos is called the Warrior of Atmos.

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

　His power was to transform into a giant.

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

　In an instant he transforms into a giant three times the size of a normal man.

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

　Wearing black armor called "Oni Armor," he grows as large as he is.

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

　But perhaps the most noticeable thing is the club that such a large Thanatos raises above his head.

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

　This is also a Nyoiryukon, which has grown just as large as the giant Thanatos.

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

　Just after he thought that Thanatos, who is 5 meters tall, raised it above his head, he brought it down.

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

　To Mr. Mannojo, who had taken the trouble to introduce himself to us in a friendly manner.

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

　However, the other party is also the head of the family.

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

　He managed to block the blow from Thanatos, which would have been powerful enough to dismantle the walls with a single blow.

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

　He received the attack of Nyoiryukon by supporting his beautiful sword with both hands like a barbell.

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

　But it was a bad move.

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

"Bite brother!"

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

"Oh."

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

　Me and my brother Bite knew in advance that Thanatos was going to attack.

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

　It would be impossible to pass up an opportunity like this.

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

　To prevent Thanatos from attacking, I stopped and got behind him using both hands and got into attack position.

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

　Brother Byte used [Strengthen Armament] on his Thunderbolt Sword, and then he attacked with excess magic power to increase the power of his thunderbolt.

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

　The attack was once blocked by Pesci, the leader of Uruk, but thanks to the [Strengthen Armor], which was not present at that time, he succeeded in cutting Jean Men Brown's back with his armor.

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

　Gene lets out a yelp and his back is thrown back.

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

　Then I followed my brother Bite and attacked.

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

　I swing down the holy sword Granvalka while mounted on Valkyrie.

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

　Thus, I had defeated the second head of the clan.

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

"Good, I have killed Jean Men Brown, the head of the Memento family. We have what we came for. Let's turn back!"

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

　The war is going well.

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

　I'll take no more chances.

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

　We have defeated the other leader well, but there are still many knights of the Memento family here.

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

　There is a possibility that the Valkyries will be injured if they use such a dangerous attack magic as [Sickle Sword].

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

　He returned to his own position as if he was cutting through the still confused Memento army.

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

　The first time I saw him, he was in the middle of a battle.

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

"You did it, Ars. The Grand Barca is still amazing. That thing cut his armor in half. I want one too!"

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

"Too bad we can't give you this one, Brother Bite. We're going to dedicate it to the church."

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

"d*mn, what are you going to do with a weapon like that in the church?"

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

"Well, don't say that. They're grateful to us for the holy sword. Thanatos! Are you hurt?

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

I'm fine, I'm fine.

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

"That's good to hear. But I still think that [Kamaitachi] is a nuisance. There's been a number of people killed here as well.

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

"But it's a good enough result, chief. We killed another one of their leaders. With far fewer men than our opponent. We can fight this battle.

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

"Yes, you're right, Vargas. But be on your guard. Let's keep our heads up."

　Thanks to a surprise attack that took out their leader with a single blow, the Barca cavalry managed to escape to their position.

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

　As long as they are in position, they will be relieved for the time being.

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