"Ice nymphs, dwell in the ice sucking stones."

　From the magic bag on my waist I pulled out an ice-absorbing stone I had found in the Daisetsuzan Mountains.

　The altitude is so high that it is extremely cold all year round, and I occasionally find ice absorbing stones.

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

　I had succeeded in magically memorizing and reproducing the ice suction stone.

　But what I have just extracted is not an ice suction stone that I have created with my magical powers.

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

　I took out a natural ice suction stone that I had found in the mountains of Daisetsuzan.

　Ice absorbing stones have the property of taking in the surrounding cold and growing in size.

　And the ice-absorbing stones were very popular among the ice nymphs.

　On the way over the Daisetsu Mountains, they went out of their way to find naturally occurring ice-absorbing stones and built shelters there to rest their bodies, while the ice nymphs sucked energy from the stones.

　During that time, the ice spirits were sucking energy from the ice sucking stones. After one night, the ice sucking stones became a little smaller, so it is certain that the ice spirits took some power with them.

　So, I retrieved the ice stone.

　I put the original ice suction stone into my magic bag, and set the newly created ice suction stone in its place.

　Then, I collected several ice absorbing stones that had accumulated energy as I crossed the snowy mountains.

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

　I will use them.

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

　I didn't want to use too many of them, but under the circumstances, I must not be stingy with them.

　The ice spirit jumped into the ice stone I held in my hand and entered.

"...... a snake. Nice, an ice serpent."

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

　Then, the ice-absorbing stone shrank rapidly.

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

　The large, clear, ice-absorbing stone, which looked like a large block of ice taken out of the mouth of the magic bag, began to disappear as if it were melting.

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

　However, it did not disappear.

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

　As soon as the ice-absorbing stone disappeared, a bluish-white light flashed, and the next moment, an ice serpent appeared.

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

　The ice serpent was at least 10 meters long, and its body was thick.

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

　That's it, isn't it?

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

　It is similar to the ice serpent that appears when Elance of the Burma family, one of the frontier counts of the Fontana Kingdom, uses the "Ice Spirit Summoning".

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

　Yes, this ice serpent is an ice spirit.

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

　When I use [summon ice spirit], a blue ball of light appears, which does not have much attack power, but for some reason, other people can summon ice spirits in other forms.

　My brother Bight is an ice wolf, and Vargas is a giant tortoise.

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

　But I finally succeeded in summoning an ice spirit with combat capability.

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

　I have to use the ice-absorbing stone that I collected in the snowy mountains, which absorbs cold air and builds up its power.

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

　Perhaps the ice-absorbing stones have something to do with the ice spirit.

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

　For example, what about the hypothesis that an actual ice spirit is a naturally existing ice-absorbing stone that continues to accumulate power, and that power is taken by an ice spirit like a ball of light that I can summon, transforming into some kind of form?

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

　In short, it is like an evolutionary item.

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

　By the way, the ice spirit that I forced to change its form by using the ice sucking stone does not always turn into an ice serpent.

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

　Considering that they used to look different, I am thinking that they might become something different every time.

"Go. Kill those who surround the Eastern Expeditionary Force!"

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

　The ice serpent is commanded.

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

　Hearing this, the serpent wiggled its body toward the guards.

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

　In such a case, the ice spirit with a shape is very helpful.

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

　Because it would be scary just to have a big snake approaching you, and if it crushes you with its body, it would do a lot of damage.

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

　Unlike a ball of light that just floats in the air, it is very good that it has physical attack power.

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

　And since they act autonomously, we can concentrate on other things.

　The ice serpent can generate great speed just by moving its body with a jerk, knocking down the opposing soldiers, wrapping itself around them, and solidifying the area it passes through with ice.

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

　The ice serpent seemed to be able to withstand the attacks of the magic wands used by the other side.

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

　This is because, just like the other party's magical weapons, they can repair their injured bodies using the surrounding snow and other materials.

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

　The guards that were supposed to be surrounding the Eastern Expeditionary Force are startled and confused by the sudden appearance of the ice serpent.

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

　Taking advantage of the opportunity, the ice spirits of Baito and Elvis also went on the offensive.

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

　Bite's ice wolf and Elvis's ice spirit, which was a little smaller than Bite's ice wolf and looked more like a dog than a wolf, were using their speed to distract their opponents so that they would not be able to narrow the siege net while they were surrounded.

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

　But it seems that the serpent that I had sent out has given him the time to strike out.

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

　He is now able to use his ice spirit not to follow the surroundings, but to attack.

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

　Seeing this, I felt that the other side seemed to be okay for the time being.

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

　So, I look again at the rock giants that Thanatos is fighting.

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

　Thanatos was fighting against a number of magical weapons, wielding his Nyoronkaku.

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

　It seems that he had already knocked one of them out of action.

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

　However, it was only because he was able to hit the black patterned stone that was the nucleus of the weapon by accident, and he was struggling against an immortal opponent.

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

　It's a terrible battlefield, one can't help but think.

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

　Both camps are ravaged by restorative beings.

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

　But there was one crucial difference between the two camps.

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

　The magic weapons could be killed by me and the warriors of Atmos, whereas they could not respond immediately to our ice spirits.

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

　The rock-casting magic wands were powerful, but they were not strong enough to deal a heavy blow.

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

　It seemed that the more magic power we put into the wand, the bigger the rock would be, or the faster it would fly, so we lacked a decisive blow.

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

　As a result, after Laila crushed the last magic weapon, the Ice Spirit and Atmos Warriors could not be stopped, and the game was decided a short time later.

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

　Thus, the Battle of Atmos ended with the victory of the Eastern Expeditionary Force.
