　A battle of 5,000 against 3,000.

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

　The attackers are the 5,000 men of the Bulgarian army, and the defenders are the 3,000 men of the Orient.

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

　Arrows are flying from the Bulgarian army at the fortress, which has been reinforced by the construction of a wall.

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

　Normally, I would think that the ten-meter-high wall would be more advantageous to us.

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

　The difference in height is a major factor, although the defense is simply harder.

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

　The reason is that shooting from the top will have a longer range than shooting from the ground upward with a bow.

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

　But the Bulgarian army chose to do so.

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

　This must be their usual tactic.

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

　The whole army is composed of powerful archers.

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

　They are strong in siege battles.

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

　They must know very well that a slight difference in height does not matter.

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

　They are confident that they can shoot arrows farther and more powerfully than if they were to be shot from the top of the wall.

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

　I feel that they are so confident that they are attacking us without hesitation.

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

　And they are not wrong.

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

　I could see that their arrows fly much farther than ours.

　Archers who have been with the bow since their childhood, have grown up, and now that they are recognized as full-fledged archers, they are even more adept with the bow of the soft magic tree.

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

　When they put their magic power into the bow, the hard bow, which normally cannot even be pulled, draws a supple arc.

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

　And the arrows that they shoot by making the most of the bow's flexing are also attacked with magic power.

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

　The attack power is incomparable to that of ordinary bows.

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

　The accuracy of their arrows, which fly through the air as if they are no more than 10 meters away, is also extremely high.

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

　Our soldiers on the wall were hit and wounded by the arrows one after another.

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

　The wall of Atmos can build an even higher wall, but it is too high for us to defend against, and since we only enclose the important areas, there is damage everywhere.

"As I thought, the bow of the soft magic tree is strong. It's difficult to master it overnight, and it's not so easy to imitate."

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

　The attack of the Bulgarian army is impressive.

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

　They are simply strong.

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

　It's not that they use some unusual strategy to gain an advantage, but they are just so strong that it might be very difficult to fight them properly.

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

　I have also got some soft magic wood which I got last year, but I have come to the conclusion that it would be difficult to use it even if I made it into a bow.

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

　I could imitate only archery by [practice], but that was only a physical skill.

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

　It was not so easy to imitate how to manipulate the magic inside the body, distribute the necessary amount of magic power to the bow and arrows of Jumaki, and aim and fire them precisely.

　Therefore, the Groglian army would have an overwhelming advantage if they only attacked with bows.

"Commander, they're in range! Permission to fire."

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

"Yes, Walter. Permission to engage. Release.

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

　Well, I didn't plan on competing with you in archery from the start.

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

　I mean, the amount of soft magic wood I have is limited.

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

　I knew that even if I turned that precious soft magic tree into a bow, the other side would have a much larger amount of it.

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

　The stronger one wins the battle.

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

　And strength is the quality of numbers and equipment.

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

　Ai taught me that the law is that the greater the number of men with strong weapons, the greater the victory.

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

　Therefore, there is little point in making the same bow that Grougalia has.

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

　So I decided to make a better one.

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

　With my permission to attack, Walter's squad will begin its attack.

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

　The attack came from a new device using soft magic wood.

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

　No, it was new equipment, but the original idea was already there.

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

　It was merely an improvement on it.

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

　It is a crossbow.

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

　A crossbow made of soft magic wood.

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

　It may remind you of the bow Orient that Banagher made, but it is a little different.

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

　It is different in size.

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

　The bow Orient that Banagher made was the size that a soldier can hold in his hand.

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

　This is because the people of the Orient did not hone their archery skills from an early age like Grougaria did, and they wanted archers who could be immediately effective on the battlefield.

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

　But this time I prepared a large crossbow.

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

　Some of the wood I had taken from the lumberyards of Grougaria was logs.

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

　I was planning to use it as a large bow for Ian the Giant, but I thought that there was no need to limit it to Ian.

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

　A big crossbow can increase its power by itself.

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

　But to make it more powerful, you have to pull the string with more force.

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

　To do so, a large number of people are required, or a complicated mechanism is needed.

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

　However, the Juumaki has solved such problems.

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

　If you put magic power into it, the terribly hard wood bends.

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

　And to bring the large flexible crossbow to the firing position, we also use the magic circle of the magical bow Orient, a magical tool.

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

　In other words, if you prepare a magic stone filled with magic power, even a single ordinary soldier can fire a large crossbow with high offensive power.

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

　In short, this is a large offensive magic tool.

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

　And the bullets fired are multiple bricks.

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

　This is simply because it is easier to secure bullets.

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

　If you can use magic, you can use [Brick Generation] to get the right number of bricks anytime, anywhere.

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

　With just one attack, a large number of bricks can be scattered in the sky.

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

　Moreover, the bullets I just used were not ordinary bricks, but hardened bricks.

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

　They are said to be harder than most metals, and they weigh a certain amount, and they are falling on top of the Grougary troops on the ground.

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

　Bricks hurt!

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

　Thus, the battle proceeded in the form of the Orientals attacking the Gulagarians from the ground with bows made of soft magic wood, and the Orientals attacking from the fort with a number of large magic bows attacking with hardened bricks at range.
