　Hoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.

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

　With such a sound, an arrow shot from a meteor's bow flies through the sky, drawing a parabolic line.

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

　The arrow flies straight to the target without any blur, and its movement is beautiful.

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

　However, we cannot just sit and watch the arrows flying in such a beautiful trajectory forever.

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

　The arrow was flying through the sky at a tremendous speed.

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

　The arrow was not aimed at Ian, but at us.

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

　It was faster than the arrow I saw when I first saw Ai.

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

　And there was more magic in the tip of the arrow.

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

　If it were to hit the ground, it would probably have a wider impact than before.

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

　Or rather, it might hit me without hitting the ground.

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

　He must have aimed more firmly than the first shot.

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

　It had a perfectly direct trajectory.

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

"Norn!"

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

"Yes!"

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

　The arrow, which has risen high into the sky, reaches its apex and falls.

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

　All that remains is for gravity to accelerate it further.

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

　I managed to move before it did.

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

　I call out to Norn and leave the scene.

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

　As I do so, I grab onto Norn.

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

　He grabs me and starts to run with me on his back.

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

　With each step he accelerates and leaves the area out of range of the force of the arrow.

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

　Boom!

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

　The attack hits the ground with a sound that is hardly the sound of a bow and arrow attack.

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

　The moment an arrow landed from the sky and pierced the ground, the area within a radius of about 50 meters centering on the point fell into a large depression.

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

　It was a terrible attack.

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

　If it had been one more step too late to escape, he would have been stuck even if an arrow had fallen nearby.

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

　But I got away.

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

　I have already moved out of the range of the attack.

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

　The shockwave hit me as I ran away, but I was still safe.

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

"Keep running, Norn."

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

Yes, sir.

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

　It is thanks to Norn that we were able to do so.

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

　I was saved by the Norn who was created using the red and black magic stone I obtained in the magic labyrinth and my blood.

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

　And now I am moving with the help of the Norn.

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

　I continue to move while straddling the Norn.

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

　But I am not carried by the armored Norn.

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

　Because the Norn is now moving on all fours.

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

　The fresh-blooded Norn is not in armor now.

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

　His shape has changed.

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

　He has changed from a human-like bipedal armored form to a riding form like a Valkyrie.

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

　From human form to Valkyrie form.

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

　They say that this is possible because fresh-blooded soldiers are made of blood.

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

　It does not mean that they have to be in the form of armor.

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

　Riding on the back of Norn's Valkyrie-like form, I run toward the meteor.

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

　He is fast.

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

　Not only does he imitate Valkyrie, but he also imitates her movements, and there is nothing unnatural about his running, and he is as fast as Valkyrie.

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

　The nearby archers of Grougalia probably did not expect Norn's appearance to suddenly change.

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

　They are slow to react.

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

　Without giving the archers any time to intercept, they headed straight for the meteor.

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

　It may have been because Ai was fighting hard on the defensive line.

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

　After landing in the middle of the island, the Glugaria soldiers were approaching the area, spreading out to avoid the sniping attacks of the magic guns.

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

　That is why it seems that there were not so many of them at the landing site.

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

　They were behind me and Norn, who were approaching the landing site on horseback.

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

"Shit. d*mn."

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

"Too slow."

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

　And the man called Ryusei, who was also there, was slow to respond.

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

　He is a big strong man, isn't he?

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

　His body with the bow was as muscular as Ian's.

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

　Especially his arms, shoulders, and back were so muscular that they pulled his clothes tight.

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

　His body and his abundance of magical power must have enabled him to make such a tremendous attack with arrows.

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

　However, it seems that those powerful arrows are not so easily fired in rapid succession.

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

　The interval between the first attack and the previous one may have been waiting for him to recover his strength or magic power.

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

　Not only was he unable to immediately launch the same attack again after a single shot using a huge amount of magical power, he was breathing on his shoulder even though he was getting closer to the target.

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

　He might be very tired after all.

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

　But even so, the opponent would not simply allow him to approach.

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

　Even though they are still fatigued, they ready their bows and fire their arrows at the approaching attackers.

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

　Their arrows are stronger and sharper than those fired by the other archers of Grougalia.

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

　Although they were stronger than usual, they were not an attack that could not be dealt with.

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

　I mix and flow my magic power while straddling the back of the Valkyrie Norn.

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

　I maintain my riding posture and strengthen my lower body so that I can swing the magic sword firmly while mounted.

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

　I also channel my magic power into my eyes in order to spot the many intercepting arrows fired by the man known as Meteor.

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

　Norn and I approach as fast as we can.

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

　The arrows coming toward us.

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

　My eyes, however, were firmly fixed on the flying objects that were approaching us at such a high speed, as if they were going to collide head-on.

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

　I shift my body slightly from my riding posture to avoid the arrow just in time to avoid the arrow's trajectory.

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

　Or, if I judged that I could not avoid it, I deflected its trajectory with my magic sword.

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

　As a result, the arrow flying from the front does not hit me, but flies directly behind me.

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

　Norn runs by the meteor without checking the arrow's movement until the end.

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

　I took advantage of the momentum of the arrow and swung my magic sword with great force.

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

　It seems that I might have used my power to intercept the meteor and could not use it for defense.

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

　The magic sword succeeded in cutting itself without any resistance, despite the strong enemy, Meteor, who had attacked so powerfully.

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

　The next moment, a large red flower bloomed in the center of the island.

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

　The blood of the man called Ryusei fell on the juuma-magi, a species endemic to this region, and dyed it bright red.
