　Elvis on his Valkyrie rushed toward the Perian army of about 3,000 who were attacking the church of Barca there, followed by a group of Barca mercenaries.

　The red-suited group approached and attacked.

　Before they could do so, the attack fell on the Perian army.

　The attack came from archers led by Hale Medium.

　Hale and his men shoot their bows while mounted on their horses.

　All of their bows seem to be made of soft magic wood.

　By putting magic power into the bows, the soft magic wood bends, thereby increasing the power and range of the bows.

　The arrows rain down over the heads of Elvis and the others as they run past.

　They are fast.

　I have fought against the Bulgarian soldiers before.

　But this is the first time for me to see these archers moving as allies.

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

　There are only about a hundred archers here now, not many.

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

　But as soon as they made one shot, they took out the next arrow, readied it, and shot.

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

　There was no waste of time at all in their movements, and they continued to do so.

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

　Although the number of archers is only a hundred, it seems as if there are many times that many archers.

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

　This is probably due to the fact that each and every one of the Grougary soldiers is a master.

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

　They have been holding bows since childhood and have trained tirelessly even as adults, which is why all of them here are exceptionally skillful.

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

　Moreover, they are united and commanded by Hail Medium, a veteran archer.

　The father of the meteor whose blood I once sucked must have fought on many battlefields.

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

　And I'm sure he's led them.

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

　The swift and accurate fire of a hundred archers was all in unison.

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

　The arrows that Hale aimed and fired were followed by the arrows of the other archers.

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

　In this way, the target may feel a carpet of arrows falling from the sky at equal intervals.

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

　The arrows are fired from a bow made of soft magic wood, and each blow has a very high offensive power.

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

　Even if the Barka mercenaries, all of whom are clad in metal armor, were to suffer this kind of attack, they would not be able to get away with it.

"Amazing! They are indeed soldiers of Grougalia who are unrivaled when it comes to bows.

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

"I'm sure it is. There is a terrible boy in the next country, after all. We have been training even harder since that defeat to prepare ourselves.

"I see. So you are getting stronger day by day. That's scary."

　The attack, which arrived before Elvis and his men came in contact with the enemy, caused a widespread upheaval in the Perian army.

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

　They were originally upset by Elvis's bravado, so they were probably even more unnerved by the attack.

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

　But still, it was not only amateurs who were attacking the church.

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

　Someone in the center of the Perian army gave the order and took measures against the arrow attack.

"A wall, huh? Magic is useful and all, but that one is a real nuisance.

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

"The walls of [wall construction] are thick. Even if you use a bow made of soft magic wood, you won't be able to penetrate it, will you?"

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

"Normally, yes. But to this Hail Medium, a wall like that is as good as a piece of cloth. Is it not the same for you, Mr. Alphonse?

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

"Well, yes. Well then, let's shoot together.

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

　The glugaria archers continue to fire their arrows.

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

　Nearby, Hale and I call out to each other, and then we make our move.

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

　I take out my bow from the magic bag on my waist.

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

　The bow is, of course, made of the same soft magic wood as Hale's bow.

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

　And the arrows that I clipped to the bow were special metal arrows made of vulcanized steel.

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

　They put their magic power into their bows and arrows.

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

　They also put their own physical strength into the bow and arrows, and fired their most powerful shot.

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

　The thick wall made by the "wall construction" was designed to prevent the attack of the giant boar, a monster that even the expert archers of Gulugaria could not pass through.

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

　The two of them simultaneously fired an attack that turned it into a mere obstacle, not a piece of cloth as Hale had said.

Meteor.

　Me and Hale.

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

　Both of us mounted, our arrows fly through the air past the other arrows, reaching the front line of the Perian army.

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

　A number of walls have been built randomly to prevent the carpet attack of arrows.

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

　Meteors collide with these walls, shaking the earth.

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

　Flying walls.

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

　The chunks of shattered bricks blow around them and smash into the Perian army.

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

　The brick wall, which they thought was a safe and secure defense against bow attacks, instantly becomes a deadly weapon that injures them.

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

　Then, the Barka mercenaries, who had been running from the collapsed defense, ran into it.

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

　Some bricks must have come flying at them as well, but they ignored them and continued to run with all their hearts.

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

　Then, they attacked the car as if they were devouring it through the holes they had made.

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

　The Barka steel swords, made at the Barka Ironworks, are both highly sharp and durable, and they wreak havoc.

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

"Is this going to be a quick decision?"

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

"...... No. Apparently, it doesn't work that way. Or perhaps we're walking into a trap?"

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

　The Perian army attacking the church of Barca.

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

　The Barka mercenaries began to overrun it almost unilaterally.

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

　But it seems that this is not the end, as Hale says.

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

　The capital of Peria is behind us as we approach the Perian army to attack.

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

　The gates of the walled city have been opened.

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

　And coming out of them was an army of armed men.

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

　Unlike the poor and weak-looking people here with weapons, these soldiers were well-equipped and well-equipped.

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

　It seems that those who were attacking the church may have been just a diversion or bait.

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

　They waited for us to bite them and then attacked from behind.

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

　As if they were waiting for us like that, the true Peria army came out of the city one after another and approached toward us.
