"Thanatos, can you go?"

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

Oh. I'm going with Lila to smash that rock giant."

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

　I ride the Valkyrie and call out to Thanatos.

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

　Thanatos, who had noticed the existence of the magical weapon at about the same time as I did, instantly sensed that it was a dangerous opponent and began to act.

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

　He jumped down from the Valkyrie he was riding and turned into a giant.

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

　And beside him, another giant transformed into a giant, just like Thanatos.

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

　Laila, a warrior of Atmos, who until recently had lost her limbs, stands alongside Thanatos and activates her magic in the same way.

　The two call out to each other and attack the magical weapon.

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

　Thanatos took the Ruyi Dragon Cudgel in his hand, and Laila took the long hardened brick cudgel I had prepared for her, and raised it.

　Gagan!

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

　The moment the attack hit the target, there was a very loud noise.

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

　The opponent's figure was not what it appeared to be, but a really hard rock.

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

　We could tell that he had struck a hard, massive substance with great force.

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

　The rock giant of the magical weapon fell to its knees.

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

　The area where Thanatos had struck it was blown away, and especially its left shoulder was shaved off.

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

　Well, even though the magic weapon is bigger, the Atmos Warrior in Titan form is a bit bigger than Thanatos.

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

　Even with the defensive power of his rock body, he would not be able to remain unscathed.

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

　I thought so, Thanatos thought so, and so did Laila.

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

<...... be careful, Thanatos. It will be restored.

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

<<< What?　You're not going back to the way things were?

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

　But the next moment, I was shown something I didn't like.

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

　I thought that the rock giant, which had fallen to its knees and had its left shoulder shaved off, would be unable to rise again, but that was not the case.

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

　As soon as he started to move, he picked up a rock by himself and put it on his shoulder.

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

　Then, the left shoulder, which was supposed to have been cut off, was restored.

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

　Could this be that?

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

　Like the mud dolls, is there a core somewhere in their bodies that will revive them unless something is done about it?

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

　That's too much trouble.

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

　Maybe the warriors of Atmos were defeated by this rock giant.

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

　Because it seems that this magical weapon is not a single item, but several.

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

"Hey, hey, they're all coming out! They can't be defeated by the magic our soldiers use.

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

"What do we do, Ars?　Is there any way to defeat it?"

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

"Yes. Maybe if we can get the core out of the rock giant's body the same way we did with the mud puppet, it might stop moving. The trouble is, we don't know where it is.

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

"Okay. If there's a chance, we have to do it."

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

"Yes, Thanatos. Then hit Thanatos with the Nyoron Cudgel from head to toe. Lila will work with me. Okay?

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

"With Ars?　Yeah, okay. Take care of Lila."

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

<...... okay. I will follow you who saved my life. Lead me, Ars.

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

　We can't afford any more trouble against the one-eyed rock giant.

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

　Then we must stop him as soon as possible.

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

　Hence, I decide to try the same method as with the mud puppet.

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

"Ice Spirit, freeze that rock giant!"

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

　He gives instructions to the ice spirit that was already floating around him.

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

　As soon as they heard his voice, the ice spirits floating in midair began to act.

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

　They froze their magical weapons so that they would freeze the surface of the rock's body.

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

　However, it seems that the opponent is also quite powerful.

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

　While frozen, they are trying to move, making cracking noises.

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

"Burn!"

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

　But it was enough if the movement stopped even for a moment.

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

　I immediately run to the frozen magical weapon and attack it with my sword.

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

　The blow is not a strong one.

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

　It only slightly scratched the frozen rock.

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

　But it was enough.

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

　The ice flame sword in my hand causes the entire frozen rock to burst into flames.

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

　After being encased in ice that stops you from moving, the ice is converted into flame and heated to an extremely high temperature.

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

　And the next moment, I am cooled down again by the ice spirit.

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

　I don't know how the body of that mass of rock moves, but it probably can't keep up with the change in heat.

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

　My guess was correct.

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

　Seeing the rock body cracking noisily due to the sudden change in heat, I signaled to Laila.

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

　Hearing this, Laila slammed her club down on the cracked magic weapon from a high vantage point.

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

　The next moment, the weapon was shattered into pieces.

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

"Is that it?　Valkyrie, retrieve it."

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

　I observe the crumbling weapon with the magic power concentrated in my eyes.

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

　Then, among the crumbling rocks, something similar to other rocks and stones, but with a much larger amount of magic power in it, caught my eye.

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

　Thanatos immediately has the abandoned Valkyrie retrieve it.

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

　Is this the spirit stone that Thanatos had mentioned?

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

　Somehow I had a feeling.

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

　A black stone.

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

　It was polished to a smooth surface and seemed to have a pattern carved on the surface.

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

　Perhaps this was the core of a magical weapon?

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

　It seems that I was not wrong in my guess.

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

　The rock giant that Lila and I defeated in our joint fight did not revive even after it was shattered into pieces.

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

　It seems that the combination of the ice spirit and the ice-flame sword works against it.

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

　Thinking so, I was going to join Thanatos as he was hitting the other magical weapons that had appeared with the Nyoi Ryuukon.

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

　But then I heard a voice calling me from another direction.

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

"Hey, wait, Ars! Help me out here.

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

"What's up, brother Bite?"

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

"There are too many of them. We're surrounded. We're surrounded. We'll be surrounded and our forces will be too heavily damaged.

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

"...... d*mn, one after another."

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

　I have found a way to fight against the rock giants, the magical weapons, and I am just about to do so when I am called upon to do so.

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

　It seems that Thanatos and I were caught by the magical weapon and got a little far away from the main army.

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

　That's when we were targeted.

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

　The other party's soldiers with magic wands that can unleash offensive magic are surrounding the Eastern Expeditionary Force and attacking them from a distance.

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

　If I had had my brother Baito with me, I might have been able to get around them a little better, even though there were only a few of them.

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

　But this is my mistake.

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

　I had brought with me all the horned men of the Eastern Expeditionary Force in order to have Valkyrie perform [road construction] when crossing the Daisetsuzan Mountains.

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

　It was also necessary to set up the transfer stone.

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

　However, it seems to have backfired on this occasion.

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

　Riding a horned Valkyrie, it is impossible to wield weapons satisfactorily.

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

　Therefore, they mainly used magic attacks during the assault, but the soldiers dismounted from the corner where it was difficult to fight in order to attack the opponent coming out of the building.

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

　This is where they were targeted.

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

　The army that stopped at a standstill was surrounded and attacked.

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

　The horror of the attack was reminiscent of Kyle's attack in a previous military exercise.

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

　...... has no choice.

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

　I had hoped to save a few more, but I'll use my back up.

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

　I looked around the battlefield and had no choice but to make that decision.

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

　Thanatos is still holding the magical weapons, but there are still a lot of them.

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

　No ordinary soldier can take them.

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

　But that doesn't mean we can leave the Bite Brothers with no choice but to persist in the encirclement.

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

　I quickly put my hand into the magic bag on my waist and unlocked my newly acquired secret weapon.
