Ai, are you okay?

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

"Yes. There have been no attacks by meteors since then. We were thinking of retreating from here to the second line of defense in case of another such attack.

"Well, it looks like you're doing just fine."

　Ai holding back the archers of Grougalia.

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

　We have already built a wall here.

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

　I've ordered the Barka mercenaries to build it.

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

　While I had them cutting down the softwoods, I had a part of the mercenary company split up.

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

　One part wields the axe and cuts down the softwoods.

　And the other was building a line of defense using [wall construction].

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

　Behind me and Ai attacking the approaching Grougaria ships from above the water, several walls were built and towering above the ground.

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

　Ai was using these walls to defend himself against attacks from the bow and intercepted them with his magic gun.

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

　The wall made by "wall building" is at least 5 meters thick.

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

　No matter how much he used the bow of soft magic wood, he would not be able to break through the wall of this thickness.

　But the attack of arrows by shooting meteors must be impossible to prevent.

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

　At any rate, the arrows are powerful enough to make a big hole in the ground.

　That is why the soldiers of the Orient were urged to retreat and returned with Ian and the others.

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

　But it seems that there has been no meteor attack since then.

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

　If there had been, no matter how many ayes there were, they would have broken through this line of defense.

"Where is he?"

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

"...... looks like they're over there. They're inside the other guy's army, and they're on the rampage."

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

"Oh, really. ...... seems to be okay."

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

　The eye was guarding this line of defense.

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

　But Ai was not the only one.

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

　There were others.

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

　Unlike Ai, who intercepted them from behind the wall using his magic gun, there were soldiers who entered the enemy lines alone and rampaged.

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

　These soldiers were wearing armor.

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

　Armor that covered his entire body.

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

　Everything from head to toe was armor.

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

　But I am sure that it was just me and Ai who first attacked the archers of Grougalia.

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

　We did not bring any other soldiers with us.

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

　And yet there is a reason why those armored men are already fighting.

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

　Because I put them there.

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

　It was the armored soldiers who were fighting the Bulgarian soldiers.

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

　A kind of demon that moves only in full body armor.

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

　Soldiers to protect the labyrinth that the core of the labyrinth, called the Magic Labyrinth, keeps producing.

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

　These soldiers were here.

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

　But these soldiers are neither bronze nor iron.

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

　No, in a sense, can we call them iron?

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

　It was full-body armor with a bright blood-red color.

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

"How are you, Norn?"

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

"Yeah. Not bad, Alphonse. I never thought I'd be wearing armor instead of a sword. You never cease to amuse me.

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

"No, you're the one who's amazing. No, you're the one who's amazing.

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

　The soldier in red armor comes back toward us and we call out to him.

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

　It seems that he has stormed the enemy camp.

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

　The other party seems to be watching us warily, or perhaps they are not following up.

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

　So, I called out to the armorer who had just returned.

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

　Norn, the magic sword.

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

　A magical sword created by a man who once aspired to be a vampire.

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

　It is not only powerful as a simple weapon, but also has the mysterious ability to assimilate the blood of its contracted partner through a blood contract.

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

　The magical sword Norn was standing in the form of armor.

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

　In fact, this was not the intention from the beginning.

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

　At first, I was thinking that I could use the magic stone I obtained in the magic labyrinth as a magic weapon.

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

　The magic stone called "spirit stone" that can be found in the village of Atmos can be used as an armored weapon called "rock giant".

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

　They were trying to see if they could make a bronze or iron armor weapon in the same way.

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

　But the result was failure.

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

　Although the magic circle was drawn in the same way as when making magic weapons, the device ran out of control.

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

　I don't know why, but the magic weapon using the reddish-black magic stone taken out from the armored soldier goes out of control and attacks people.

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

　Perhaps it has something to do with the time when they were created in the labyrinth.

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

　Gran, who accompanied me in this research, told me that the reuse of the magic stone from the magic labyrinth has probably not been successful even in the Brillia Magic Kingdom.

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

　If they had succeeded, there would be no need to go all the way to the village of Atmos to retrieve the spirit stones.

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

　They could just use the magic stones found in their own labyrinths to create metal armored weapons.

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

　The fact that this has not been done in the past leads to the conclusion that it could not have been realized even in the Brillia Magical State.

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

　Therefore, the reuse of the reddish-black magic stone failed and should have been put on hold.

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

　But this was reversed by the existence of Norn.

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

　Norn, who was supposed to be in my body now, having been assimilated into my blood through a blood contract.

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

　The Norn's power is to make my blood into a magic sword that can be used as a weapon, and to take the blood of the person he cuts.

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

　I used this power when I killed the bandits.

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

　I cut them and take their blood.

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

　By capturing the magical power contained in the blood, Norn was able to further enhance his power as a magic sword.

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

　But I found another use for the blood.

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

　Well, it was just an idea.

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

　The reddish-black magic stone becomes an armored soldier made of metal.

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

　But metals such as bronze and iron have gone out of control.

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

　Then, why don't we make blood armor from the blood absorbed by the magic sword Norn?

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

　I had read that blood contains iron in it, and I thought it would be a good idea.

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

　I tried it and succeeded.

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

　Is the fact that the blood itself is norn the reason why it does not run out of control?

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

　I am not sure about that.

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

　But anyway, using the blood absorbed by the demon sword Norn, a blood armored soldier was born with a reddish-black demon stone as its core.

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

　Norn the fresh-blooded soldier.

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

　That's the name of my own newly created armored soldier.

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

　Suddenly, a soldier in full body armor the color of bright blood appeared on the battlefield.

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

　The sight of this lifeless blood monster attacking the battlefield seemed to confuse the Grougary soldiers.

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

"Well, we've got to buy a little more time, don't we?

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

　I will take advantage of the confusion to buy even more time.

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

　Thus, I decided to join up with a new force, the Norns, to buy even more time.
