55Chapter 55/89 An encounter in the Demonic Forest
56
57——Back to the three months ago. After the defeat of red demonic beast that commanding the bug-type demonic beast, and the time where Ikaruga has fall to the ground.
58
59Ikaruga who was barely reached the ground safely from the fallen bug-type demonic beast which had been chasing him. When it was crushed after failing down, a liquid like fluid splashed to the surrounding on the impact. The magic that had been supporting the giant body was already lost in the same time after its life has ended. The corpse becomes brittle, and the contents were scattered all over the place, then began to evaporate at once.
60
61It has formed an Acid Cloud in a tremendous momentum and swallowing Ikaruga as a whole. Now that the Magi Jet Thruster which known as the best propelling system has lost its function, and there’s no other ways for Ikaruga to escape the death cloud.
62
63“This is the worst! If I don’t escape soon, I would be melted sooner or later”
64
65Then, Ernesti is trying to make Ikaruga run but after a few steps, it got on its knees.
66
67“What. This is bad, the Crystal Tissue is・・・・”
68
69In order to protect himself, he shut off the external air intake and switch it to internal ones. However, its not like the whole Silhouette Knight’s body has completely sealed off. The Acid Cloud was easily invaded the inner part, and damaged the Crystal Tissue first.
70
71Even though Ikaruga was called as the first generation of Eastern Mode’s Silhouette Knight, the durability of each one Crystal Tissue are still remain same despite being upgraded into the Strand Type which certainly improved the overall durability. And it can be said it was unexpected to be able to function in the middle of the corrosive atmosphere.
72
73To make matters worse, it doesn’t mean the lost function of Crystal Tissue is only damaging the driving system. In short, the Crystal Tissue is responsible to store a mana in the Silhouette Knight.
74
75When the huge partial of Crystal Tissue has been lost by the corrosive atmosphere, on the other hand the enormous mana that Ikaruga had been stored are being depleted at once. In this worst-case scenario, no one ever imagined the structural defects of the Silhouette Knight have been exposed.
76
77While it can’t stand up, the itching-like Ikaruga’s exterior began to peeled off. In the same time, the Capacity Frame has lost functioning, and Ikaruga lost its little remaining mana again.
78
79The situation will soon to be getting worse.
80
81Losing a large amount of mana means that there is a problem on the enhanced magic which was used for strengthening Ikaruga’s body.
82
83Unfortunately, the air intake to the heart furnace is closed to prevent the corrosive atmosphere. Even the overwhelming mana supply that known as Ikaruga has lost from now.
84
85Without knowing when will Ikaruga began to collapse. Even the prideful strongest knight runner was no longer able to operate one finger. And just sit and wait until everything began to collapse.
86
87“・・・・・I can’t move it. I wonder if it still has a proper shape left. Moreover, I can’t even get out from this”
88
89The surrounding area is covered by the corrosive atmosphere. Although, Eru didn’t really know it was accompanied by a strong toxic, either way the result will be same if it exposed to an acid.
90
91He even can’t escape from here. When the pilot’s seat began collapsing, that would be his last moment.
92
93“・・・・・Haa. So, this is the end”
94
95When Eru takes a long deep breath, he leisurely sinking himself into the seat. Now the cloud has completely covered him, while Ikaruga just waiting for its last moment, there’s no sign of resistance left on him.
96
97“Oh, this is not good. At this rate, I can’t fulfill my promise to my mother. It seems I can’t show to her since I had already made the Wind Carrier”
98
99He suddenly raised his eyebrows after remembering something. There’s a promise he hasn’t fulfilled yet. And he began to bet everything to find a way on this unexpected possibility.
100
101However, the situation is still ruthless.
102
103There is a loud noise coming from the machine. The strengthening magic finally getting weaker, and the corrosive atmosphere has reached the inner skeleton. Without any delay, it would eventually reach his last protection.
104
105“At least, everything will be over. I’m sorry Ikaruga. I just still wanted to more, and always to run wild with you”
106
107While patting the keypad, he muttered it by showing a small smile.
108
109“At least, at least I was happy to be with you till the end. In the first place, I had already died once, and this time I’ll die while piloting a robot. I’m just glad”
110
111Died while piloting a robot.
112
113Eventually, the destination of this mecha otaku was always be here. It just this time has come by pure chance. It’s not like he was prepared for it, in a certain way he is always seeking this place.
114
115Ernesti Echavalier has lived with the robot and died with the robot——.
116
117——However.
118
119For instance, when Eru already giving up on everything, there’s someone who absolutely will not tolerate it. Several lights of bullets come from the sky as if it was ready to break his sentimental feeling. An attack which come from Silhouette Arms. After the bullets touching the ground, by following the script, an explosion has occurred. The barrage equal to the OverdSpell that causing a tremendous blast along with hole that had been pierced on.
120
121Not just only that. A long and continuous barrage still comes in a short moment. Although, it can be said if it goes bad, even Ikaruga would be blown away, though the ones who has released the barrage doesn’t seems to hold back at all.
122
123Now the Acid Cloud covering Ikaruga has blown away, a cleared hole has opened. On the straight line, the shape of half-man and fish can be seen.
124
125“Give!! Eru-kun!! Back!! To!! Meeee!!””
126
127It is none other than Adeltrud who ride the Syrphirne.
128
129By deploying the Magi Jet Thruster to the limit while releasing the ether on the etheric levitator, she has rapidly descended the altitude.
130
131“I finndd you!! Heeree I coommee!!”
132
133After discovering Ikaruga which had almost turn into a wreckage, this time she began to decelerate rapidly. While supplying ether on the etheric levitator, the fins stabilizer had been deployed widely to reduce the air resistance. Then adjusting the speed and return like she was ramming the Acid Cloud. On that moment, she ejected the equipped twin anchor.
134
135While pulling the long silver light, the thread-like tow flying in the air. It has an iron-like shape on the tip and it can grab an object. With Addy operating technique, it can fly freely in the air and arrives at the damaged Ikaruga to bites strongly into the brittle body armor.
136
137Syrphirne has begun to pull up the tow while ascending. Hence lifting Ikaruga’s body in the short moment and quickly escaped from the clouds.
138
139Although she smiled in satisfaction, soon it turns into clouded state.
140
141“Ah, aaahh!?・・・・・Noo!!”
142
143Even though it looked like has worked well, but that just the end of it. The barrages were certainly blow off the surrounding Acid Cloud. However, it was not completely blowing them all, there’s a thin cloud still remained in there.
144
145Yet, the thin Acid Cloud were plenty enough to melt the fragile Silver Nerve’s tow.
146
147After seeing the damaged silver wire, Syrphirne began to turn around in a high speed. At the same time, the etheric levitator has released the ether to descend again. On that moment, the last towline has been disconnected, and Ikaruga’s body was thrown into the air.
148
149“I won’t let you!!”
150
151Syrphirne began to accelerate at full throttle and aiming to the Ikaruga’s body. Before it fell back again into the Acid Cloud, Syrphirne successfully catch Ikaruga’s body by rushing to the side. Addy somehow trying to rise the altitude, but・・・
152
153“It won’t rise!? Why!? Shii-chan please! Just a little more!!”
154
155It doesn’t stop descending, and Syrphirne was facing the ground while keep falling.
156
157She might not know about this, but this was due to one of Undinestarle’s [1] flaw. Or rather, it can be said it was one of etheric levitator deficiency. The principle of this device is to create a floating force field by supplying an enough amount of high purity ether to make the machine able to float.
158
159But when the supplying and discharging were repeated in an instant, the ether density inside the vessel will become unstable, as the result, it won’t able to create enough floating force field. And without floating force field assistance, the Undinestarle cannot soar high to the sky.
160
161Fortunately, rather than rushing toward the Acid Cloud, Syrphirne was able to jump out from the cloud’s range because of the acceleration to catch up with Ikaruga. But the situation is quite different to relax yet. After all, the altitude still continues to fall and now the ground is already before the eyes. The Wind Knight won’t able to soar high by only using the propulsion system and Fins Stabilizer. While Addy looked at the approaching ground, she braces herself with determination.
162
163
164
165She moves Syrphirne and hold Ikaruga tightly. From there she prepared to hold her breath.
166
167“Shii-chan, please・・・・! Please protect Eru-kun!!”
168
169By operating the rest of ether supplier, the large amount of ether floating force field is capable to climb them up. Afterward, twisting the body and let the Syrphirne fly in reverse state.
170
171“I’m sorry!”
172
173Before the impact, Addy has activated the Gear Ejector. The pilot’s seat that located on the back is separated in an instant, and the compressed gas had ejected her into the air.
174
175Ejection is one of the hellish training before getting into the machine. She immediately spreads the Descend Rad’s arms and hold in the air. After stabilizing her posture, she was looking for Syrphirne first.
176
177Just around that time, Syrphirne was already crashed down on the ground. Because of the reverse flying, Syrphirne was able to protect Ikaruga just before the impact to the ground. While tearing down the trees and scraping the ground under its own momentum, the dust cloud begins to smear out. The armor is blown away from the body, the crystal’s fragments are scattered all over place, and the unbearable sound can be heard on the surrounding.
178
179It’s not strange if the machine was shattered into pieces if it crashed on that such momentum. However, beyond the dust cloud, Syrphirne managed to stop the momentum while holding Ikaruga’s body firmly.
180
181Even though the floating force field was lost its function due to unstable ether, in the end, it has regained its little strength after the forced supply. In the aftermath of the effect, the floating force field was able to perform as the shock absorber, and reducing the damage of the frame.
182
183However, because it was scrapping above the ground surface. The damage is so serious and almost same like it had being shoot down. Especially when the early rammed shoulder to the upper body damage is pretty serious, probably it was already distorted on the inner skeleton part.
184
185Furthermore, the lower body was not left unscratched, there’s a rainbow-colored light spouted from place to place. With the impact, the etheric levitator is damaged, and the inner ether are leaking out. It seems, Syrphirne won’t able to dance in the sky again.
186
187But, on its arm.
188
189It was proudly holding the Ikaruga’s body, which had been protecting by sacrificing itself.
190
191â—†
192
193Addy flies in the sky using the Aero Thrust magic and arrived to the Syrphirne side. Without getting out from the Descend Rad armor, she ran to the Ikaruga that being held in the arms.
194
195As she tries to climb up the body, she began to tremble after seeing Ikaruga’s grave damage. The exterior was next to nothing, above of all, the Crystal Tissue have been dissolved, and even the inner skeleton was already exposed. It’s reminded like a corpse that had been covered by the leaf, and surely in terrific state.
196
197Nonetheless, she began to shook her head and leaving aside the bad precognition. Her objective is not Ikaruga itself. No matter how damaged the machine is. As long the chest part has still remained, there’s a possibility the ‘content’ was also safe.
198
199When she runs upward the Ikaruga’s wreckage, she is trying to knock the distorted armor that had been dissolved by the acid.
200
201“Eru-kun! Eru-kun! Are you okay!? Are you still alive!? Please, respond to my call!!・・・For crying of loud! Get out of my way!!”
202
203Although she was calling him, soon it become too bothersome. Immediately, when she tried to pull the Gunn Staff, she shoots a magic without reserve. The fragile chest part has blown away by the fire ball in one hit, and leaving a deep black hole inside.
204
205The light coming from the forest, illuminating the internal pilot’s seat. When Addy looked into it, there’s a figure of Eru with his eyes closed and in fetal position. At first glance, it doesn’t look like he is injured or anything. Addy leans out to him and make sure everything is fine.
206
207“Eru-kun, please be safe・・・・uwa”
208
209From the face, she hit something somewhat elastic and transparent while being held down near Eru side. Addy immediately notice the trick. That is mass of compressed air created by Air Suspension magic. And one of the magic that had been created by Eru which supporting the maneuverability. If something like this was here that means.
210
211By the time Addy was watching over the mass of compressed air, it began to squeeze slowly. In front of her who sit closely to him, Eru has began to open his eyes and start to move.
212
213“・・・・Umu, that was one of terrible tremor. Is that you Addy? I see, you come to save me. I narrowly become a mince meat back then・・・・here・・we go”
214
215Before saying anything, Addy is gone hugging him like she was jumping away. When she was embracing him without holding anything back, a strange voice can be heard on Eru’s mouth.
216
217“I’m glad・・・・・Eru-kun, is alive. Is still alive・・・・! Eru-kun, Eru-kun・・・・!”
218
219“W-wait, I can’t breathe. It’s fine, I’m really okay. So please, hold back a little, or I die・・・・・”
220
221While wiping her tears, there like a crushed frog-like sound every time Addy strongly hugs Eru. In the end, she needs a lot of time to settle down.
222
223“Fuu, I thought I was gonna die ・・・・”
224
225“Uuu, Eru-kun, Eru-kun. I thought it was over. I’m glad, I’m on time・・・・・uuu, this fluffy sensation, its feel good ehehe”
226
227Although the power is loosening, it doesn’t seem she want to release Eru at the moment. She is busily poked his cheeks and patting him while cuddling. Sometimes, there’s liquid-like fluid that falls into Eru’s cheek. When Eru hugged Addy back, he strokes like he was caressing her hair.
228
229“It’s okay. I’m still alive. Because the one who have saved me it’s you Addy”
230
231“Yes・・・・”
232
233“Listen Addy, have you forgotten that I asked you to protect the ship. In the end, you came along with me”
234
235“Even so!”
236
237When Addy tries to loosen the strength to embrace him, she sharply looks at Eru’s eyes.
238
239“Even if I have protected the ship, Eru-kun will! Left alone・・・・! Ikaruga eventually will be crashed down too・・・・”
240
241It seems she has remembered a lot of thing while saying all of that, when the tears began to flowing on her eyes, Eru somewhat lowered his eyebrow.
242
243“Because of you, I’m saved. However, if something goes wrong, you might as well the one who in danger, Addy”
244
245“It doesn’t matter! I’m fine die together with you rather than being left alone by Eru-kun!”
246
247He finally let out a long sigh.
248
249“It seems I can’t die carelessly too. I need to be careful from now on”
250
251“That’s right! I will not forgive you!!”
252
253At long last, in response to Addy who start crying again, he spoke in a gentle whisper to her ear.
254
255“・・・・Thank you, Addy”
256
257Then he softly kisses her cheek.
258
259Although she stopped crying at once, there’s still some dissatisfied looks on her face.
260
261She gave Eru a blank stare, and silently demand something.
262
263“・・・・・Ummm?”
264
265“It not enough. I’ll forgive you if you kiss me a little longer”
266
267When Eru gave a wry smile, he eventually brings his face closer.
268
269And sealed off her lips.
270
271â—†
272
273Although, there are a lot of thing had happened, they went outside at least.
274
275Once again, they are looked up the two machine that have become like a corpse, and just stand still out there without doing anything.
276
277One of it was broken into pieces after crashing on the ground, while the other one was dissolved by an acid that can’t even keep its original form. It can be said those machines had been fulfilling its own life to protect their master.
278
279Soon, Addy began to turn around and looked at the surrounding. In the middle of the forest where the grass and trees grow thickly, the traces of Syrphirne are remained on the dragged straight line. Other than that, there’re mountains and forests as far they could see. Also, any kind of human activity is nonexistent.
280
281“What should we do from now on・・・・・”
282
283After the fight has ended, the sky is returned to the tranquil state. Surely, their Knight Orders’ levitate ship were already leave this land. None of them would think to return here due to the dangerousness of bug-type demonic beast. In other word, those two were left alone in the Bocuse Sea of Tress.
284
285After knowing all of it, a cold shiver ran down on Addy unconsciously. Looking back into account, they were always with the people in Laihala Kinght Runner Academy, or the later with the comrades in Silver Phoenix Knight on every battlefield situation. Unlike before, they never had been isolated like this.
286
287“・・・・・・・”
288
289In the same time, Eru was staring at the Ikaruga’s wreckage without saying anything.
290
291Addy who stick close to him, try to speak but stopped halfway as if she was unsure. Reminding on how much effort Eru has spent when building Ikaruga, she got feeling that no matter how much she tried to console him, it would be in vain.
292
293“Fufu. Fufufufu, ahaha, ahahahahahaha”
294
295And then, some kind of laughter has reached to the girl who lost in thought. Addy is startled. As expected, Eru seems at lost after losing Ikaruga.
296
297“Ahaha, haha! ・・・・・Okay then, let’s eradicate them”
298
299However, his word is full of contradiction.
300
301“That bug-type demonic beast・・・・they are able to evolve to have strong acid in their body, in order to dissolve other demonic beast’s shell, I suppose. They are literally natural enemy for Silhouette Knight. But I don’t need that kind of existence on the world where I live”
302
303Depending on how someone listen at, it was such very arrogant line. However, as long they are not compatible to each other, there is no other way for one of them who will be destroyed. Then, he surely would do it.
304
305“Although, we must somehow do our best to eradicate them・・・・・the most important is, Ikaruga and Syrphirne are in this state. Our lack of war potential also big, this is not good. First, we must repair them”
306
307While mumbling something, he counts what should he do in the future with his finger.
308
309“Well then, was it faster to go back to the country first and go back to recover, or aiming to be repaired in here with two of us. What do you think, Addy?”
310
311“Hohe!? Er, hmm. I don’t know the answer in this kind of situation”
312
313“That’s also right・・・・・we still have too little information about this place. Let’s start with reconnaissance, we should go with safety first. Addy, we will start to collect any kind of things we can bring”
314
315“Ah, eeh? Y-yeah”
316
317Even Addy was stunned after seeing Eru’s sharp movement which not too long ago make her feel sentimental. She was also worried about his positive way of thinking about confirming the current situation.
318
319“Are you not afraid Eru-kun? We are in the middle of Bocuse, right? We also don’t know how many demonic beasts live in here”
320
321“Yeah, I’m scared・・・・・I am really scared for two of us who have crashed in here along with Ikaruga and Syrphirne”
322
323But it seems, Eru point of view about fear was somehow a little different. For a madman (mecha otaku) whose purpose will always lead to Silhouette Knight in the end, the condition itself are full of contradiction.
324
325“Then, let’s remember what we’ve learned in the school. What should we do if we separated from the group? How to find a way to survive? Didn’t we already had done any various exercises before?”
326
327“I think nobody would consider it if the situation was in the middle of Bocuse”
328
329Stranded in the forest full of demonic beast, Silhouette Knights got ruined and there’s no possibility for their allies to rescue them. Normally, only death will wait them on this kind of situation. Either they will stop their advance in despair. Will they fall in distress. Or will they freeze in fear.
330
331“Also, the problem from now on to repair Ikaruga is. There are many troublesome substantial difficulties even if I think for a moment. Among of it・・・・”
332
333When he reaches out his arm to the waist and draw out the gunstaff. Eru has smiled upon staring at the blade that gave a faint radiance.
334
335“A problem where ‘cut, shoot, and beat them out’ is nothing but trivial things to do. Don’t you think?”
336
337“Eru-kun is way to positive・・・・”
338
339Granted, Eru started to move again.
340
341The burials for the robot are left for other occasion. Now is the time for them to move and do what they can for the rebirth of their beloved machine. Even if only suffering awaits them in the end of their way. There’s no way for Ernesti Echavalier who has set his goal, to stop his advance. After all, he is a madman (mecha otaku) who cannot be stopped even the death itself.
342
343“Hence, we need basic necessity first. We need to find a place where we can rest”
344
345On that moment, a lightning has struck Addy’s whole body.
346
347“・・・A, are you mean・・・・! Eru-kun and I will have a sweet life for a while!? Somewhat I feel the urge to do our best!!”
348
349For sure, Addy is like Addy who is same like Eru whose an oddball.
350
351â—†
352
353Then the two of them went through to find as much supplies they could carry in Ikaruga and Syrphirne.
354
355As a customary, the Silhouette Knight is equipped with some supplies in the case of emergency. Fortunately, Ikaruga was no exception. In Syrphirne case, because it was equipped with Descend Rad as an escape mechanism, from the start it can be taken out safely. A variation of medicines, blankets even a simple cookware. And rations. For time being, there’s no need to worry about starvation.
356
357What next to confirm is their war potential. Its hard to say, their Silhouette Knight are completely broken. Then, the biggest factor of their remaining strength will be Addy’s Descend Rad. Although Addy want to pass it to Eru who was enviously staring at her Descend Rad but.
358
359“As for that armor, I would like Addy to use it. Either way, the size doesn’t fit me well so・・・”
360
361Although Descend Rad is not exclusive, it was adapted to the user physique to some extent. Eru needs to make special order for his small build. He was even more sad than losing an Ikaruga back then.
362
363And the weapon he held are two Winchester and several wire anchors that had been attached on his waist. Although he did think about the machine was not enough in a spur-of-the-moment, he immediately pushes out the worries.
364
365“Let’s secure the water source for time being. I’m sure when I view from above, there should be a river in vicinity”
366
367The bulky luggage is being carried together in the Descend Rad. Although if they are using Silhouette Gear, this kind of luggages would be an easy task. In the first place, it was a frame that would help them after being thrown like this situation. Unexpectedly, they themselves were able to complete their purpose.
368
369Thus, after completing the preparation, the two of them start to walk to the center of the forest
370
371â—†
372
373On the shades of the leaves, and while jump over the rocks, Eru moves his nose. When he looks around the surrounding, there is something that move stealthily in the middle of his sight.
374
375“・・・・There is. I won’t let you escape”
376
377It was a beast similar like a rabbit which ran through the trees swiftly. Then he jumps out using the Aero Thrust magic, and accelerating like an arrow.
378
379Although the rabbit was also fast, it cannot escape from the lost child’s high-speed movement. Eru cuts the neck after passing it. By using the Sonic Blade magic, the rabbit has struck in one blow and died after losing much blood.
380
381As intended. After hunting the prey, he hangs it on the tree to bloodletting. With that kind of pace, he returns happily after collecting several of them.
382
383While hanging the prey on his gunstaff, he lightly passes the forest. Leaving the place where the trees grow thickly, his destination is the place where a widely rocky terrain located.
384
385“I’m home Addy. I got something for the dinner tonight”
386
387“My. Welcome home, d-e-a-r”
388
389After hearing his voice, Addy comes out from the tent. Somehow Addy is in a good mood.
390
391“I’ll make it soon. Would Eru-kun prepare the fire for me?”
392
393“Ah, yes・・・・speaking of which Addy-san? Why are you seem so happy about?”
394
395“How can I not happy when waiting Eru-kun back in the house・・・・uehhehehe”
396
397“Here is just temporary one for reconnaissance. I won’t settled in here you know”
398
399Eru who doubting her misplaced one’s priorities, and somehow Addy nodded in affirmation, but no matter how it looks, she’s plenty happy about it. Although, it was better than feeling down, or so what Eru thought.
400
401Upon passing over the prey, Eru began to gather the firewood. By igniting the basic foundation of explosive magic. Anyone could have an unlimited fire source if able to utilize the magic phenomenon. However, it’s often said too meaningless if everything left with magic alone. That’s why trees used as a fuel.
402
403It has been one week since they are start crawling in the forest. As soon as they are leaving the Silhouette Knight, they found a river. From that point, they climb up and build a base, thus living in here by hunting modestly.
404
405Their base is based on Addy’ Descend Rad. The tent is fixed with framework and the waterproof cloth. In the cases of emergency, they can fold the cloth and move away immediately.
406
407“Although we had the Descend Rad, I couldn’t help myself to leave all the load on Addy”
408
409“I’m fine! Isn’t this child somewhat looked like our house? Our house・・・・I will surely protect it!”
410
411With that, Addy seems to be full of motivation for an unknown reason, while Eru gives up barging in any further. It is important to have a motivation after all.
412
413Today dinner is a roaster meat, with smashed trees’ nuts and wild grass. Because food is always gathered from the forest, everyday somewhat it turns out like this.
414
415“I’m glad there is a beast which can be turned into a meat in this area”
416
417“Too bad we could have only made the seasoning with the baked herbs”
418
419Although there are many inconvenient about the environment, but that was where Addy skill shine. Because her cooking skills are quite good. When she serving Eru, somewhat she looks at him while smiling, but Eru let her do as she please.
420
421With that kind of unforeseen adventure continues. The only human being are themselves, everything beside that is the nature. Incredibly small and confined safe territory. And even if they are gonna laid back a little, they feel their mind will be swallowed among the trees.
422
423The Knight inside Fremmevira Kingdom were taught how to survive in the forest. Even so, there’s many things where the situation that cannot be seen so far.
424
425However, they were adapting on live on the forest. There’s no sadness on the two people that had been stranded on the forest. There is also no despair on them who live in a place full of danger either. If the mind already breaks on that kind of degree, Ernesti Echavalier won’t able to reach into this point. Because he always going for the next steps.
426
427Furthermore, they are blessed with high fighting ability as individuals. They could even take the duel class demonic beast as long they are being cautious about it. As a result, they had lived in an audacious manner between the forest.
428
429â—†
430
431“・・・・Mu, it’s already morning”
432
433As soon as opening the eyes, immediately jumps to the thin waterproof cloth while in sight. In a small tent utilizing the Descend Rad. A tent that enduring the rain and wind as much as possible, but there is the most important thing for them; a house.
434
435The morning sun kindled their surroundings. And the new morning has greeted them. When Addy want to drove off her sleepiness, she embraces someone next to her tightly.
436
437In the fearful Bocuse Sea of Trees, there’s no people beside her who live in the forest; it’s none other than Ernesti. Addy gave a delightful smile. In some condition, Eru is always morning person than Addy, but sometimes their position is reversed. On that such time, it was a chance where she could have fun.
438
439Eru’s sleeping face can be seen in the dawn light. Although, from the start Eru have a baby-faced appearance, he becomes more purely and cute when sleeping. Even though they are in the same age, like always he still has a petite body, and she hugged on between his arms.
440
441“Fufufu. Oh my, Eru-kun is cute after all・・・・”
442
443She gently pokes his cheek with her finger. A smooth sensation and refreshing body texture transmitted to the fingertips. She drools over them on the mouth, but closed it soon.
444
445“But after waking up, always do reckless things”
446
447That fight which caused them to live in the forest. There’s a danger within his action. Although it is okay to seek something in straight way, in his case there are too many times he could engulfed in danger. What worse was the person itself know too much about his ability. Even though, some of it can be managed, the risk still exists if he even fails a little, and it would lead to dangerous. Granted, just like this time.
448
449“As expected, I can’t leave him alone anymore”
450
451She affirmed her determination while staring at the side of his face. Even she wasn’t thinking about how to stop Eru at all. Because mostly will become useless after all. And while looking at Eru face, an ‘etching to do something’ urge has risen inside her. By being careful to not wake him up, she closes her face. A small sleep breath is opened, and the sensation of the breath tickling her off. She seemed like wanted to laugh in any moment but she continues to approach him and kiss on his cheek.
452
453“Yeah, Eru-kun is soft after all”
454
455Of course, on that position she will wake him up. Thus, bring her face close to his unforgettable lips and——
456
457After the distances between her cheeks are narrowed, she stopped her movement. When she looks closely at the opened thin eyes, she could see Eru who couldn’t hide his wit’s end expression and holding down her face.
458
459“Good morning Addy. What are you up to do in the early morning?”
460
461“Morning Eru-kun. You can still sleep you know, I’ll give you a wake up kiss”
462
463“Haa. Good grief, what are you saying now, this child”
464
465While groaning a sigh. Immediately Addy has launched her face, in response of that, Eru moves swiftly. On that short moment, their lips are connected to each other but soon separated.
466
467“Now we have finished our morning greeting. Get up properly Addy”
468
469In the same time Eru began to wakes up, Addy face melt down in a smile form and a deep blush spread on her. When she trying to get up, she hugs him in meantime.
470
471“For crying out loud, I love you so much Eru-kun”
472
473While hearing the ‘uhehehehe’ eerie laughter, once again Eru has groaned a sigh. Somewhat as if has been become troublesome, he leaves it as if while being hugged.
474
475Around of their tent, a faint roar of a beast can be heard. The scenery was too calm that they couldn’t think it was a demonic beast territory.
476
477“Eru-kun, we really can go back to home, right?”
478
479By whispering on his ear, Eru has stood up slowly and embracing her back.
480
481“We will return without a doubt. Of course, with Ikaruga and Syrphirne too”
482
483“Yeah”
484
485Leaving a kiss on Addy’s cheek, Eru goes out from the tent.
486
487“Let’s make out breakfast first. Then which direction we should go today”
488
489Today as well, they are kept going on through the forest. Although the information is increasing on the self-made map, there’s still no clear destination.
490
491And one day they finally meet ‘that’. It was an encounter that changing every future in the forest.
492
493â—†
494
495When traveling through the forest, Eru has suddenly stopped.
496
497After listening to his surrounding and runs to the nearby trees. If he would stand still, a slight vibration was transmitted into his body.
498
499“・・・・There’s something far away, and heavy. It is duel class demonic beast, I suppose”
500
501“Shun it again?”
502
503“Normally it is. However, I want to know the location, let’s search it from the top of the tree”
504
505A duel Class demonic beast is supposed to be a deadly for a living human flesh who doesn’t have a Silhouette Knight.
506
507Nevertheless, the fighting ability of those two are little off for a human. For them, there is no opponent they couldn’t beat. Still, they are always avoiding on the most time-consuming one.
508
509Eru and Addy who wearing the Descend Rad, climbs the nearby tree quickly. After securing the position, they’d searched around carefully. Eventually, a something huge entering their vision.
510
511Two giant creatures that walk through the forest while resonating a heavy footstep. As assumed, their size would be categorized as duel class. However, they gulped their breath and opened their eyes in surprise.
512
513The shape of the giant creatures they could see between the trees. After all they are——a huge version of a ‘human’
514
515“Are you kidding me, why there is a Silhouette Knight in here!?”
516
517“・・・No. That not it, not at all. There’s something wrong with them. Don’t tell me, they are・・・・!”
518
519And then, it was ‘wearing’ a ridiculously huge beast bone. From its size, they believe it was a bone equivalent or higher rank than duel class. Like before, it was ‘equipping’ an armor made by demonic beast. If only that, it can be said it was something like a Silhouette Knight.
520
521However, there was the most important dissimilarities. It was looking around with its one-eyed lid, from its mouth is hot and exhaling a moist breath. The partially exposed limbs possess the freshness of a blood vessel and the texture of flesh.
522
523Granted, this kind of titan is alive. Not a man-made titan, but a genuine ‘living titan’.
524
525“・・・A giant. Not a Silhouette Knight・・・・but a duel class giant in flesh!!”
526
527With that kind of cognition, a cold shiver ran down Eru back. Eighteen years have passed since he was born in this world. From the time he has spent, he was already used experiencing the existence of a monster that boast the huge body using magical power.
528
529If he thinks it carefully, it’s not strange at all. Because if a mere beast was able to grows in size, there’re possibility that humanoid creature will also grow in size.
530
531However, until this point, they have treated the man-made huge humanoid machine as a weapon. For them a titan is the best armed force of humanity, that is nothing other than a Silhouette Knight.
532
533“For・・・・a living giant exist. I-I won’t allow that such thing・・・”
534
535Addy who confused and shaking in uneasiness state, grabs Eru’s hand tightly. When he gave a smile, he points at the titan direction with his finger.
536
537“If you look at the giant closely, aren’t they wearing an armor that has been made with demonic beast’s shell. That’s also mean there’s a crafting technology, and culture. Or even more, they have a language”
538
539“・・・・Fue!? Eeh, is, is that so. Eh, eeeh!?”
540
541Eru is staring down every titan moves. Due to the size, their body is heavy, and also, they have strong and robust muscle strength, probably using a strengthening magic. On their hand there’s something like a club which mainly for hitting. The hand’s finger is five, mostly same like a human do.
542
543Probably the armor had been made from demonic beast corpse. Bone, hide, and shell as the main materials, while any metallic part hasn’t been seen yet. There are also decorative parts that had been made with fur and feathers, and it was clear they have a concept of a culture.
544
545The longer he looks at them, the much firmer Eru’s face changes into a smile.
546
547“Alright! Let’s follow the giant Addy”
548
549“Ehh!? Are you serious Eru-kun”
550
551Addy shook her head in side. Naturally, if the other party is a mere demonic beast, it would not brother her. But she didn’t even think to get close to a huge creature which could rivaling the Silhouette Knight.
552
553“If we able to get that giant armor・・・we could do something with the outer skin. We can always use a bone. I guess it would be difficult to ‘take off’ their bone. What remaining is only Crystal Tissue, this is certainly difficult. However, this is much better than nothing at all!!”
554
555“Are you jumping the conclusion too soon!? Say, it’s a living giant. Are you not surprised at all?”
556
557Addy stunned while looking at Eru who confirming the reality in relaxed manner. Leaving aside the amazement and start looking for application first, certainly giving off a few screws already loose impression.
558
559“How advanced do you think about their crafting skill? There’s possibility of blacksmithing too? If so, building mutual relationship might even help us in a certain way”
560
561“I don’t think so!? Eru-kun, its reassuring to see you like that but calm down first”
562
563Certainly, if the titan could have a blacksmith skill, it is likely to be more efficient than a normal human works. But it’s not like they have to ask the unknown huge humanoid creature (possibly) to do some blacksmithing works. It can be said that anything is possible for his purpose.
564
565“I know the threat of living humanoid giant. But wasn’t more interesting than the two of us who wandering around the forest aimlessly. Well then let’s go!”
566
567“It would not good at all if this kind Eru-kun state”
568
569No matter how many unknown creatures, Eru will be Eru. And Eru who has found the purpose and a way to do it, is cannot be stopped. Addy eventually gave up and agreed to his proposal. Then the two of them start sneaking behind the titan.
570
571A very small creature has been mixed in the vast forest.
572
573In order to return what they have lost, a ship that flying in the sky once again advancing to the forest.
574
575The unknown tribes that lives in the forest, the titan.
576
577These encounters will later evoke an unprecedented tremor in the fearful Bocue Sea of Trees.

600Chapter 90 The Giant’s Nation
601
602Beyond the Fremmevira Kindom, there is a vast woodland that covered the east side of Zetterlund continent. That forest is known as ‘Bocuse Sea of Trees’.
603
604There are no humans that rule over this vast forest – only countless demonic beasts who have many power struggles to keep their own land.
605
606The ‘Silhouette Knight’ – humanity’s greatest weapon, is a giant knight crafted from steel.
607
608In the past, many people attempted to use the power of Silhouette Knights to unlock the path into the forest. But their ambitions perished after facing the enormous demonic beast who roamed inside the vast forest.
609
610Since those failed campaigns, no one has been permitted to enter the Bocuse Sea of Trees. Furthermore, the forest has now become a symbol of dread and terror.
611
612Amongst thick and dense trees, there were two giant beings walking.
613
614Their height reached to a maximum of 10 meters. Although every living being that was in the forest were considered without exception as demonic beasts – the size of most of those beasts were categorized as ‘Duel Class Demonic Beasts’.
615
616Utilizing the super physical power known as ‘Magic Phenomenon’, the demonic beasts can support an enormously huge body while also increasing their destructive ability.
617
618But the two walking giant beings were unlike the forest’s demonic beasts.
619
620After all, they were wearing ‘Armor’ that were made from demonic beast’s leather and bone. Behind their armor, there were absurd swells in their muscular body, moreover they were stepping on the ground using their two feet.
621
622Yes, these two massive creatures that were shaped like a human – these two could be labelled as “Titan”.
623
624There was a large beast trail caused by the myriad of duel class demonic beasts that were active in the forest. These two titans were walking on the gap that were stamped on by the tracks of an enormous beast that had passed by previously.
625
626One of titans was wearing a demonic beast skull as a helmet, and within the helmet, there was one huge eyelid that was looking around.
627
628As the titan moved forward cautiously, there was a primitive axe that was made by combining a stone with a huge log in its hand. Even though the axe was worn-out, it could still demonstrate great power through the axe’s weight.
629
630While the other titan had different characteristic from the one-eyed titan.
631
632It had a large body that was full of vigor and strength, wearing more complicated armor which was decorated by lots of fur in some places.
633
634The biggest difference between the two titans was behind their helmet. There were additional small eyes than the one-eyed titan.
635
636In short, he is the ‘Three-eyed Titan’.
637
638While the one-eyed titan regularly looked around cautiously, the three-eyed titan moved forward casually and without care.
639
640Eventually, the one-eyed titan who had lagged behind slightly, hurriedly increased the pace to regain sight of three-eyed titan’s back.
641
642There was something conspicuous in there. An extended baggage warped by demonic beast’s leather.
643
644While mentioning the contents, the one-eyed titan began to open his mouth.
645
646“・・・Three-eyed Seat (Tertias Okrys) [1], we were lucky this time. Who knows we can obtain stained beast (Cretvastia) [2] husk while still intact”
647
648Likewise, the three-eyed titan still did not look back.
649
650“So dull – the hunt ended without a scratch. I am the one who went to fight. Gathering leftovers was the lower classes’ [3] responsibility, right?”
651
652“However・・・・however it was Cretvastia. When I hear many eyes of Brave (Fortissimos) [4] has fallen into their mouth, as I thought I cannot think other than the hundred eyes (Algos) [5]”
653
654At last, the three-eyed titan started to slow down, and then faced the one-eyed titan.
655
656“But, there is something interesting. Someone beside me has defeated Cretvastia. Was its beast? Or human? Eventually a foe worthy of the Fortissimos, surely we will face each other・・・”
657
658The three-eyed titan pursed his lips so ferociously that it looked like a grin, while the one-eyed titan become stiff when seeing that.
659
660The one-eyed titan was just a servant (Almygera) [6] who also cannot display the ragging heart that only the Fortissimos can hold. Because the one who can hold courage is only the Fortissimos.
661
662“Anyway, we must tell the Sorcerer (Marga) [7] about this. Let’s hurry”
663
664After he said that, the three-eyed titan hurriedly moved onward, while the one-eyed titan quickly followed after him.
665
666Then after going through the beast trail, they eventually left the forest and went to an open space.
667
668There is a settlement in there. A place similar to them, a settlement where the titans live.
669
670The buildings were arranged side by side and made with timber framing while covered in demonic beast’s leather. There were not many of them. And it seems that it was not too large reminding of their scale. [8]
671
672But there are the sites where the titans live. Of course, every house was massively huge. The source of the demonic beast’s leather that was used for covering was at least duel class or higher. Or they must use that kind of material to support their huge housing.
673
674The two titans that passed through the forest proceeded to the center of the settlement.
675
676In the middle of the route, the titans living in the settlement saw the two, and after calling around the titans gathered in one place.
677
678By the time the two of them arrived in the center of the settlement, they were surrounded by the titans who were living in the village.
679
680Their number didn’t even reach 20 titans. In this small clan living in a village was relatively common for them.
681
682Then the three-eyed titan look at the surrounding, focused his power and raise his voice.
683
684“I am the Three-eyed Seat of Brave (Fortissimos De Terrias Okrys) [9] who has now finished the battle and have returned!”
685
686In response to his proclamation, the villagers who were in the way opened up a path for him.
687
688Behind them, a titan slowly stepped out from the biggest settlement in the village.
689
690Every titan assembled in this place had different appearance.
691
692Most of them had giant figures, well representing their name as titans, but there are also children among them. There were men and women, furthermore there were also distinguishing variations that can be seen among the titans.
693
694The titans living in this place have a constant number of eyes.
695
696There were one-eyed and two additional pair of eyes mixed in them. Only two titan who had three eyes including the Brave (Fortissimos) that had just returned to the village.
697
698And there was a titan who come from the biggest settlement.
699
700Dressed in gaudy clothes that displayed the collected, gorgeous demonic beast material.
701
702In one glance anybody could understand the distinction of that titan because the other titan was wearing clothes that were made from fur and already plain enough.
703
704A lot of wrinkles was inscribed on the face of the titan. Unlike the others, the limbs were too thin to walk. The aged titan looked exactly like how an elderly woman would appear.
705
706However, the four eyes that were buried in the wrinkles stared quietly while deep in the thought.
707
708The three-eyed titan placed his arm and kneeled before her while keeping open only one eye on his forehead.
709
710Beside him the one-eyed titan took similar position and his eyes was not closed.
711
712“The Sorcerer of Four Eyes Seat (Marga De Quortos Okrys) [10] I have returned from the battle”
713
714The old woman looks at them with her four eyes and nodded.
715
716“You have returned safely, Fortissimos. Did you fight well?”
717
718“Nay, we do not achieve the victory”
719
720The moment he spoke, the buzzling sound echoed on the shocking truth.
721
722“Then what did you obtain?”
723
724“Please look at this!”
725
726The three-eyed titan presented the load he was carrying on the back. What came out was a long and thin developed horn which was similar to a demonic beast’s shell.
727
728The moment she saw that, a groan leaked out from the old woman’s mouth. The unpleasant sound rumbling among the surrounding titans continued.
729
730“Ooh, this is surely the stained beast (Cretvastia)”
731
732“Did you slay it? What bravery! As expected of our Fortissimos!”
733
734“It was strange isn’t? Why did Fortissimos say it is not prevailed?” [11]
735
736Ignoring the surrounding noises, the four-eyed woman looks at him with intense eyes.
737
738Concerning that, the three-eyed Fortissimos began to explain.
739
740“My sorcerer (Marga). Unfortunately, it was not me who slew this beast. Someone already killed it before we arrived to obtain this from the fallen corpse”
741
742“I see, therefore it was not your victory? But even so, it will not change your determination to fight at all”
743
744He still keeps his posture while resuming his stance.
745
746“Not only that. There is still countless corpses out there, we only brought this one”
747
748The old titan woman slightly extends the wrinkles covering her faces.
749
750“・・・・was it true? I wonder what kind of living being was able to resist this spreading impure calamity [12]. And with that many・・・・”
751
752“I do not know. There is only Cretvastia’s corpse in that place”
753
754When the old woman impulsively thinks over it. The villagers began shivering after hearing those two stories.
755
756“Then, if the Cretvastia has been defeated. Will this be our opportunity?”
757
758“That’s it! Without Cretvastia, we will not afraid of the Rubel clan (Genos De Rubel)!”
759
760“Messenger. Send the messenger to make an inquiry to the new wise man!” [13]
761
762The piled-up enthusiasm was shoved aside when the four-eyed old woman got enraged.
763
764“Silence! I will not allow any reckless movement!”
765
766The old woman struck the ground with the staff she held.
767
768Although the titans calmed for a moment, they started to argue again viciously.
769
770“Now the Cretvastia has fallen, there is no other reason to be afraid of the Rubel clan!”
771
772“It might not be the whole beast. Besides, do not regard your opponent as being inferior to yourself, we are already losing by our number”
773
774The old woman gradually took control of the situation. She carefully chose her words so as not to add fuel to further the debate.
775
776When the titans calmed down, one of them open their mouth and with murmuring.
777
778“However My Sorcerer, you might already have known this. They do not befit the throne properly. The previous wise man was not worthy of selection of the hundred eyes [God] at all. This kind of savagery cannot be tolerated. Someday it would be necessary to make the enquiry” [14]
779
780The old woman slightly narrowed her four eyes between the wrinkles, and thought deeply this time.
781
782“Listen everyone. There is no other than me who surpasses the four-eyed sorcerer level. Even if I must sacrifice my eyes, we will not hesitate. But I am already too old. Without eyes [a titan] that can become my heir, I cannot offer my eyes lightly”
783
784The titans correspondingly calmed down as they were reproved.
785
786And then the three-eyed hero [brave] who was quietly listening for a while, begun to stand up and looked at the old woman in ease.
787
788“My Sorcerer, we must share this information to other clans. If we ask, their eyes might be opened after that”
789
790“Do not be hasty, Fortissimos. Will you be going to repeat the same mistake as before? Whatever it was by force, we still cannot stop the savagery that Rubel clan has done. Far from that, aren’t we just sticking at each other throat?”
791
792The three-eyed brave is speechless with no words to answer the titan woman.
793
794The enemy of our enemy are allies, he cannot say that nonchalantly. In fact, the bitter history where even if they had joined hands with others they could still not defeat their opponent.
795
796“But, you have your point there. There is someone who caused this to occur, whoever it was, they might not able to keep silent for long. But for now, we must close our eyes・・・・we must wait for the right time”
797
798After the crowd was calmed down by the four-eyed old woman, she grasped the horn with allegiance and told him majestically.
799
800“The Three-eyed Seat of Brave (Fortissimos De Terrias Okrys), I will praise your courage. You must decorate this stained beast’s horn with honor”
801
802“Acknowledged. The hundred eyes [God], be my witness!”
803
804The old woman bestowed the demonic beast horn while the three-eyed of brave received it graciously.
805
806Even thought it was obtained from the fallen corpse, the deed of arm ceremony was acknowledged by exchanging the horn. It was very important for them to decorate themselves with the parts of a demonic beast that was defeated with their own power. [15]
807
808As he gripped the horn, he raised his hand.
809
810“Even though this is what I am got from fallen corpse, next time I will decorate it after taking it down myself!”
811
812With that yell, the titans began to shout each other.
813
814“Fortissimos! Fortissimos! Fortissimos!”
815
816The time he knocks his fist and stomp the ground heavily. The surrounding titan began to shout with joy in every direction.
817
818While the titans gathered and jumped up and down in frenzy, there was a tranquil gaze that kept staring at them.
819
820A human shaped figure who was located in the forest encircling the settlement, while standing in the highest tree trunk.
821
822The two shaped human that were rather far too small compared to those raging titans.
823
824Those two small figures were Ernesti and Edeltrud. Using their skill to hunt demonic beasts as a knight, they secretly follow the titan’s trail after encountering them in the forest.
825
826“W-what is this・・・・that such a thing”
827
828Addy embraced Eru with her arm using all her might.
829
830She was trembled at seeing the spectacle right before them.
831
832“This is truly shocking. Leave aside the giant have a culture to speak・・・・”
833
834Not only her, Eru was also astonished. That reason is.
835
836“・・・・to think we can also ‘understand’ it too”
837
838Eru, as a human, was very different entity than a titan.
839
840Although they were shaped like a human, as long they have knowledge and culture, it’s not strange if they can also speak.
841
842However, the language they spoke was too similar to what Eru had been expecting. Of course, some of it might be wrong but, most of it you can understand it briefly.
843
844“What’s going on!? Who・・・ are they? I thought they might be a demonic beast who were shaped like a human but, it is not・・・・”
845
846Addy was a knight runner who had been on the battle field countless times.
847
848When she was facing the demonic beasts, whatever it was duel class or division class, she would not get frighten by them. Because of their destructive nature, to humans, demonic beast were beyond understanding.
849
850But the scene in front of her was something beyond her comprehension. And the unusual feeling slowly builds up deep inside her.
851
852“・・・In other words, we can converse with them. Then, can they understand us too?”
853
854“Eeh!? Eru-kun, are you perhaps planning to speak with them!?”
855
856Addy become surprised the moment she heard the bizarre words from Eru.
857
858“Just as I thought, we shouldn’t do that before we know if it is safe or not. But, let’s think of it as an option in an emergency situation”
859
860“It, it might be so, but・・・・”
861
862She embraced him tightly instead of replying with the right choice.
863
864While the gust of wind was blowing, Addy was vigorously hugging Eru, in meantime, he was listening to the titan’s silliness.
865
866“Oh, look at that the horn they brought. That is the bug demonic beast’s shell. Ufufufu, so they were called ‘Stained Beast’ (Cretvastia), huh. Ahahaha, surely, I remember that’s my nemesis”
867
868“So you did really hear that・・・・・”
869
870Somehow Addy finally reached her limit and leaked out a long sigh.
871
872“Oh my, Eru-kun! Although they somewhat look like humans, but they were giants proportionately like duel class demonic beast, right? And then they were talking! Isn’t that absurd. Did you even think it was scary・・・ or creepy?”
873
874“Not at all. Now I want to learn them about more. Of course, you need to do that properly, right?”
875
876He was acting usually at this kind of situation, somehow being upset at him become more and more ridiculous.
877
878Thus, without noticing Addy stopped being upset and starting to observe the titan calmly.
879
880“But it is somewhat strange isn’t it? Their words are somewhat archaic, right? Kind of hard to understand”
881
882“It seems they have different linguistic after all, I thought it was the same at first”
883
884After observing them for a while, they seem to begin to scatter around.
885
886Some of them go back to their own settlements, while others head back to work.
887
888After watching all of that, Eru began to fold his arm and think deeply.
889
890“Well then, what kind of approach we need? Even though they have culture, their movements are pretty wild. And a pleasant approach might be impossible after all・・・・”
891
892“Uuu, as I thought you are serious about it, Eru-kun”
893
894“Of course. In this regard, we might be able to communicate with them, and they might have some kind of technology. So we still have hope to have them repair our Silhouette Knight”
895
896Certainly, it would be more efficient if they leave it to those titans.
897
898But it doesn’t mean to abruptly ask to do smithing on the gigantic human shaped demonic beast (guesses) – that would be insane. [16]
899
900In the end, Eru is choosing what would be the best for his beloved Silhouette Knight.
901
902Although, there is a limit in everything but, without that much confidence, it sure would be hard to survive.
903
904Leaving aside the titans’ attitude, Addy begin to tilt her head with anxious looks.
905
906“I wonder if it would turn out well・・・・”
907
908“From the start it would be not good. Even if we fail, we can confirm them as an enemy, so it would not be futile at all”
909
910That was not the problem. As she though that, she immediately gave up on saying that.
911
912Besides, it can’t be helped if she was thinking that it was someone else’s problem. Somehow it was necessary to take action than to do nothing.
913
914“Anyway, we need more information. If possible, we need to know their lifestyle and culture, after that we will decide if we want to negotiate with them or make them an enemy”
915
916“Then, how about we sneak in?”
917
918Eru nods.
919
920“We should not come from the front. Let’s wait for a moment and sneak in at night”
921
922Considering their height difference, it might be not difficult to sneak in. They are already certain to work with the darkness cautiously.
923
924But Addy cannot remove her anxious feeling.
925
926“I hope some of them can do smithing. Moreover, it would be great if they can lend us their power. While at it, repairing Ikaruga might be good too”
927
928In contrast with the unlimited possibilities, Eru was busily thinking a lot of things.
929
930Eventually the sun was setting and the darkness of the night started covering through the forest.
931
932The moonlight began to pour down, with the mysterious howling that goes through the trees.
933
934Unlike when daytime, the nighttime in titan settlement warped in tranquility.
935
936As Eru thought, the titans seem to have the habit of sleeping at night.
937
938There is something like a jet black shadow running around the giant houses in the settlement – Eru and Addy who were wearing silhouette gear.
939
940They were far too small compared to the size of the titan’s house, because of that they were able to move stealthily.
941
942In addition, they were capable of flying around by using enhancement magic, but still it was difficult enough not being able to see clearly in the darkness.
943
944In the end they were sniggling each other in the edge of titan’s house while looking up figuring out the scenery.
945
946“Somehow I feel like a mouse crawling in the house”
947
948“Now then, our objective is not to find some food. However, let’s find any information and as many we can before we got caught”
949
950While Eru was pointing at the direction, Addy began going up using the silhouette gear.
951
952Those two secretly crept into the house where the titans live and were residing.
953
954In the house, no light could be seen – it was completely dark.
955
956Actually, there was a gap at the top, but most of the light cannot penetrate inside the house because it was made using a double structure. Furthermore, the doorway was closed up with a curtain, so even the moonlight cannot past through it.
957
958If those two listen carefully, they can hear the titan’s heavy breathing in the back of darkness.
959
960A normal respiratory sound, it seems like they were already sleep and doesn’t seem like moving at all.
961
962“Buut, can’t see anything”
963
964“Umu, it seems more troublesome than I thought”
965
966The two of them whisper with lowered voice.
967
968There is no light or whatsoever. So, they couldn’t begin their investigation. Nonetheless, no matter how deep the titan’s sleep, they were still hesitant to light a lamp.
969
970Then, their situation now in a deadlock.
971
972“What a blunder, we cannot investigate anything at this rate”
973
974“It is dangerous・・・・・we still don’t know where the giant is too”
975
976It was too dangerous to wake the titan in this darkness.
977
978After trying everything, in the end the two of them give up their investigation and went out from the house.
979
980What’s only left is just an ordinary titan’s sleeping breath.
981
982———that’s what was supposed to happen but, the sleeping titan was interrupted.
983
984Within the darkness, there is a huge presence getting up. It moves like a massive wild beast who held its breath.
985
986At the time, the moonlight caught Eru and Addy who just recently went out from the house.
987
988“As I expected, the giants sleep at night. However, it’s sure hard to find anything without light”
989
990“In the case, how about we sneak in during daytime?”
991
992“Although it was dangerous, it seems there is no other choice. What shall we do・・・then・・・・ah”
993
994That was something Eru planning on what to do next.
995
996Blocking the fickle moonlight, there is a big shadow that cuts out their surroundings.
997
998The two of them look up with their raised faces.
999
1000Something very large just now come out from the titan’s house———that was a head.
1001
1002That head alone able to surpass Eru’s height several times.
1003
1004A titan, there is no other word than that.
1005
1006On the face that cast a shadow, the three eyes sparkled in reflection of the ground.
1007
1008Wilts Fortissimos Terrias Okrys De Caelleus [17], one of the Clan of Titan (Astragali) [18]. The titan frowned when staring at the small creature at his feet.
1009
1010As if a creature that looks like them but smaller.
1011
1012He does recognize their identity, and also their ‘owner’ as well ————
1013
1014“Goblin? [20] Why you are here?・・・don’t tell me you rascal! Aren’t you the goblin that’s kept by the Rubel Clan!!”
1015
1016“Ehh?”
1017
1018Even though Eru and Addy heard the titan speak, they didn’t understand what he meant.
1019
1020Ignoring those two who were still bewildered, the agitated titan quickly grabbed a weapon near him.
1021
1022“I could see their pained looks losing the stained beast! However, being able to snoop around with a goblin alone, their eyes sure have been cloudy!!”
1023
1024“No, you are mistaken. I think you got the wrong person”
1025
1026“Eru-kun!? This is not time to respond to it calmly!?”
1027
1028A huge club swing down on them when two of them begin reciting each other.
1029
1030Because of the titan’s huge weapon hitting the ground, a small explosive-like sound echoes around the settlement while the others titan start waking up from their slumber.

1039Chapter 91 Let’s Start Conversation with a Giant
1040
1041
1042
1043Even though it was so dark, the stone axe overwhelming destructive power have been proved closely.
1044
1045The third eyed titan staring at the goblin who dwells in the dark. The next moment, the limb’s muscle swing down the stone axe violently.
1046
1047The raw physical strength who will inherit the Brave (Fortissimos) name. There is nothing like a mere goblin who can escape that overwhelming attack.
1048
1049———If that was a goblin then.
1050
1051The one who stood again him were the strongest knight order of Fremmevira Kingdom. Ernesti Echavalier the commander of Silver Phoenix Knight and his number one disciple Adeltrud Olter.
1052
1053Didn’t even need glances at the titan, using the ‘Gun Staff’ on the hand, they already completed the ‘script’ in their ‘magius circuit’.
1054
1055No one know how many times they have used that kind of magical phenomenon. Because they now don’t even need to think anymore.
1056
1057By using the script, the air has been amassed and compressed, and it can be guided thru launching the high pressure.
1058
1059Eru and Addy who have been utilizing the ‘Aero Thrust’ magic, flies around the midair.
1060
1061As soon as that giant axe smashing the ground where the spot those two belong before. The outburst-like force shimmering down the ground, with the titan’s weapon which is overly sized than a human height.
1062
1063A blunt explosion noise, roaring through the serene night.
1064
1065“Nu!?”
1066
1067His frame as third eyed of brave was not just for show, but.
1068
1069He caught the glimpse of the goblins who had jump faster than his strike and escaped right before the direct hit.
1070
1071He surprisingly opened his eyes. And with that shock alone unblocking the dust that have been covering him.
1072
1073“How dare someone like goblin able to escape my attack!?”
1074
1075He is the Brave (Fortissimos)———the strongest and highest position in the village.
1076
1077The fact that a mere undersized goblin able avoid the attack, hurt his eyes too much. [1]
1078
1079The time he starts running by lowering his hips, the clacking sound made from his teeth can be heard clearly.
1080
1081Break through the dust, and leaped to the goblin who wanted to run away into the darkness.
1082
1083â—†
1084
1085Without waiting the titan who still at full of rage, Eru and Addy began to turn their back.
1086
1087“Umu, I couldn’t agree with this. Even though we are not goblin or anything”
1088
1089“Aah, enough! You can do that latter! Moreover, what should we do now!?”
1090
1091The titan has a huge step, his movement speed is very fast despite he was just sprinting.
1092
1093Even though the two of them using aero thrust magic and move like a bullet, the titan still able to catch up them.
1094
1095“For now, let’s withdraw to the forest!”
1096
1097Without further ado, the two of them run into the darkness between trees shade.
1098
1099The titan also followed them from the behind without much thinking. Yet, after entering the forest, his advance come to a halt.
1100
1101“Kuh!? Curse you!”
1102
1103It was difficult to track ‘small animal trail’ who ran away in the forest at night. Also, it would be impossible to find small animal who move swiftly like that.
1104
1105He was drifting in the fury while gazing at the dark forest. His mind become clouded because of the sound of the trees combined with small animal who running in the dark.
1106
1107“・・・・・Being able to escape from me. No matter how small are they, do not disregard them, huh?”
1108
1109He stares at the forest with a sheer expression for a while, eventually shook his head and return to the village.
1110
1111At the time when the Brave come back to the village, every titan who hear the commotion gathering up and waiting for him.
1112
1113And in the center, there is a four eyes old woman who also called ‘The Sorcerer’.
1114
1115“Brave, such commotion in the middle of night. What’s happened?”
1116
1117“My Sorcerer. There are a few goblins who snoop around something. Feasibly, they were from Rubel Clan”
1118
1119“Oh my・・・・・！“
1120
1121Between the titan, the buzzling sound echoed on them.
1122
1123The fourth eyed old woman began to close her eyes, afterward she opened her mouth.
1124
1125“・・・・Goblins. There is no other clan who keep them other than Rubel Clan. To depend on that miserable eyes, what a bunch of wretched clan. Then, where this goblin now?”
1126
1127“Regrettably, their leg is so hasty and have run away. ・・・・as the one who inherit the brave name, this is a disgrace”
1128
1129The Brave kneeling down while closing his pair of eyes. The stone axe in his hand making a thump sound as he grasped it.
1130
1131“There’s nothing you can heed for now. Soon or latter, someone might know about the corpse of stained beast hearsay. However, to think Rubel Clan using goblin to move around. How prominent of them to do such an extent・・・”
1132
1133“My Sorcerer. There should not be only goblin here, it’s insufferable for Rubel Clan to sustain their eyes closed”
1134
1135The old woman nods back at the Brave words.
1136
1137If the goblin loafing around the village, there must be someone nearby who control it. They were certain a titan from the Rubel Clan might be hiding somewhere in the forest.
1138
1139“What a fool. Rubel Clan is being impatient. ・・・・Everyone listen! Let’s send a messenger. We must convey this to our neighbor clan”
1140
1141“My Sorcerer, in that case, I will be going!?” [2]
1142
1143The surrounding titan who listening the Brave and old woman began to murmur in lower voice.
1144
1145“Our eyes already opened. Before the Rubel Clan begin their move, we must joint with various clan and ask the enquiry to the wise man. Without any delay. Everyone, we must prepare”
1146
1147To respond the old woman phrase, every titan arising out their war cry. In a short moment, the tranquil forest quaked and the birds fly at once in dismayed state.
1148
1149To not being pursued by those madness, two small human shaped shadows run past through the forest.
1150
1151â—†
1152
1153The environment of titan settlement within that night has changed completely.
1154
1155“Prepare for hunting!”
1156
1157“Suit yourself in armor! Display our courage without question!!”
1158
1159This situation, usually were no different from hunting for food. But their behavior become too enthusiastic.
1160
1161The amount of armament has increased several times than usual.
1162
1163In addition, targeting a demonic beast that normally didn’t often to hunt before.
1164
1165For example, the robust crustacean. The demonic beast which have a larger body than the titan.
1166
1167It possesses overwhelming toughness which requires considerable amount of effort and endurance to hunt. An opponent whose didn’t really efficient to hunt.
1168
1169For such opponent, the titan grouped together enhancing their attack persistently.
1170
1171As not to damaging the shell as possible. Aiming its weak point at the gap of the shell, a truly time-consuming attack strategy.
1172
1173Eventually the massive demonic beast become weakened and then collapse into the ground.
1174
1175“Alright, pull it!!”
1176
1177With the synchronized yell, every titan pulls the massive load. By placing the demonic beast on lined logs, they pull it by using a rope made from demonic beast hair.
1178
1179No matter how superior the titan’s strength is, it sure difficult to transport a demonic beast that surpass battalion class in one go.
1180
1181The titans pass through the forest with triumphant war cry while carrying massive demonic beast carcass.
1182
1183The population in Kaelleous Clan’s [3] settlement is not too many from the start.
1184
1185Most of them preceding to hunt, but a small number of them, heading to different route.
1186
1187Their attire was also different from when hunting, and they also will not return for several days or weeks. Their duty as a messenger leading them to travel around to another clan within the forest.
1188
1189To ask an enquiry to the wise man, they need to assemble at least 6 number of clans.
1190
1191The titan is relatively use small number of clans as a central to relay the message.
1192
1193“Today is the big catch! Well, then everyone, let’s do our best!”
1194
1195The prey that had been hunted brought to their settlement.
1196
1197Every whole of them regardless of whether they are man or woman, went to hunting and also every one of them begin to handle the prey.
1198
1199The demonic beast skin will become soft after they lose its strengthening magic when they died. After it, disassembling them will be an easy task.
1200
1201The titan peel of the shell as if they were already used to this, afterward they mince the meat.
1202
1203Tanning the skin, lining up the bone. Excluding the fresh meat for today feast, the leftover must made into dried meat.
1204
1205Although, there is no reason for them to preserve the meat, because for most titan always consume what they hunt at that day.
1206
1207But now, they must prepare for approaching occasion, to ask the enquiry to the wise man.
1208
1209They were carefully maintained their weapon, cleansing the whole place, and then back to their own house with a leather and shell on their hand.
1210
1211The material they hunt today used to strengthen their hunting attire like armor or fur coats.
1212
1213They can make it durable and flexible by combining the hard shell and leather to replace the old and damaged part.
1214
1215By twisting the demonic beast hair, they can make simple thread or sometimes they even use demonic beast sinews as substitute.
1216
1217Including the battalion class demonic beast’ material, the armor it self become firmer than before.
1218
1219The beast material that has been gathered by themselves, will be acknowledged by the Hundred Eyes (Algos) and will bless them with greater power if they use that material to make the armor.
1220
1221Soon or later, their preparation has come to close.
1222
1223â—†
1224
1225Morning has come, the light shine down the Bocuse Sea of Trees.
1226
1227Countless number of animal living in the forest start poking out their head, and bustles with its fullest.
1228
1229As the small demonic beast raises, the fluttering noises imbued through every tree.
1230
1231Ernesti opened his eyes when that peaceful melody going through his ear.
1232
1233The leaf that covering his face, instantly falls away from his sight. He was in the top of huge tree dotted within the forest.
1234
1235Eru began to stretch his body, peeks out his face from the edge and looking out at the condition below the tree.
1236
1237At the same time, Addy who began to move fidgety after noticing Eru has been awake. Stretching out her arm and then embracing Eru who observing down below the tree.
1238
1239“・・・Eru-kun・・・・is something happened?”
1240
1241“There is nothing particular nearby. Even the Sound Chirping Bird (Ring-ring Bird) [4] is still sleeping, right?”
1242
1243The place where they still sleep-talking each other.
1244
1245A bird-like hemispherical place, made by compiling tree branch and leaves——actually, it was really the bird’s nest itself.
1246
1247Though in the center of it, there is a big bird that can extend its wing up to 10 m. Of course, it was categorized as duel class demonic beast.
1248
1249Of all things, they snuck out into duel class demonic beast’s nest, from all this time they have been using the demonic beast itself as a pillow.
1250
1251Although that kind of deeds can be said as reckless, obviously they won’t do that such thing without clear reason.
1252
1253This big bird is a species with possessing the friendliest characteristic amongst demonic beast, besides it doesn’t feed on human.
1254
1255It also posses interesting trait, it will ignore any presence that would not endanger itself, but it will react perceptively when it senses any danger even if just only a slight of it.
1256
1257When it got endangered, it would cause intense cry while notifying its kind, that’s why it called Ring-ring Bird.
1258
1259Eru and Addy who took it as their property, utilizing the demonic alarm device, moreover using its feather as pillow to sleep.
1260
1261Furthermore, even their silhouette gear placed inside the nest.
1262
1263Despite the fact it is placed at the edge of the nest with some diffidence. Without any covering, it was arranged to able get in at any time they want.
1264
1265No matter how much they can be exploited, they must not forget to be cautious.
1266
1267And when they enfolded in drowsy, the big bird indicated a slight nervousness.
1268
1269The dozing bird immediately reveal its pupil, and began to steer its neck impatiently.
1270
1271Those two who notice it, peered down again from the edge of the nest.
1272
1273A huge human shaped shadow can be seen between the forest’s trees. Soon after confirming that, the two of them withdrew their head.
1274
1275“Uun. The giant still wandering around the forest. Are they still looking for us?”
1276
1277“Assuming that is the case, it’s not like they were still resentful about it but・・・・rather, they were only targeting demonic beast. Maybe it was something like a hunting season for them.　Umu・・・・”
1278
1279While crossing his arm and bothering something, no clear answer can be obtained yet.
1280
1281Because of their previous investigation ended with failure, there is no way for them to know the titan circumstances.
1282
1283However, no matter what is the circumstances, having the titan aggressively moving around is sure bothersome.
1284
1285It doesn’t matter how vast the forest is, they cannot foresee when they will meet next, and even if they happened to meet, for sure they will be attacked again without question.
1286
1287“This is not good, I can’t see the situation. Anyway, we still didn’t have many cards to play”
1288
1289The big bird loosening its nervousness since the titan already passed by.
1290
1291As Eru praises and patted the wing. The big bird catches the glimpse of him for a moment and then lost its interest while closing the eyes.
1292
1293“Well then, I believe we must consider how to take opponent card soon”
1294
1295“It would be troublesome if we don’t do something about the giant, right?”
1296
1297Eru and Addy who leaning on the big bird, thinking about what they planning from now on.
1298
1299â—†
1300
1301In the other place, not far from the center of the forest.
1302
1303There is a three eyes titan. The Brave who walking without fear like usual.
1304
1305Since accepting the blessing, he always keeps leading even at the hunting time.
1306
1307The three eyes of his seeking around the trees, and then discovering a beast’s traces there. Although, it was hard to find the trace of small beings, but it would be different story if the target was a demonic beast.
1308
1309Below from the large tree, there is a dung scattered around the tree’s root.
1310
1311Of course, it was dropped from the top. When the titan trying to look up, there is a nest which made by combining tree’s branches and leaves.
1312
1313“Sound Chirping Bird, huh・・・・alright”
1314
1315He knows the demonic beast who live in that nest. For a titan, this kind of prey is not worthy to eat but their feathers are good for decorations.
1316
1317To meet and ask the enquiry for wise man, it was important to decorate the armor. Because armor value is not just stiffness at all.
1318
1319As the Brave thought that way, the titan grab holds of boulder that loitering around of him.
1320
1321Immediately, the Ring-ring bird opened its eyes. In a flash, a loud ‘alarm’ noise ringing from its beak.
1322
1323Eru and Addy were tripped over due to loud cry blaring them at the close range. In the same time, the big bird flapping its wing and jumped from its nest without hesitation.
1324
1325Immediately afterwards, a bulk of rock come flying through the nest.
1326
1327Penetrating the branches and leaves on its way, leaving a huge hole in the nest. It was really tremendous strength.
1328
1329“Addy!”
1330
1331Although their ear still ringing, Eru and Addy were forced to make a move.
1332
1333Addy who start up the silhouette gear as soon she rides, leap into the nearest tree branch.
1334
1335“Throwing, huh? I thought there is no tools that can be used in this forest”
1336
1337They soon spotted it if they look at the ground, the glaring eyes. The figure of a glaring titan who look at the Ring-ring bird direction.
1338
1339“Eru-kun this is our chance! It would be fine right if we didn’t let this guy free right?”
1340
1341“Yeah, this also good opportunity for us. Let’s go talk a bit with him”
1342
1343After Addy said that, moodily. Eru responds it with a refreshing smile.
1344
1345Afterward, the two of them jumped off from the tree branches.
1346
1347“What a fast bird as ever. It’s hard to hunt at this distance”
1348
1349While watching the loud-cries shriek from the distance, the third eyes brave click his tongue.
1350
1351Because of the Ring-ring bird special trait, they will inform the threat to their kind. For awhile they will be alerted and will not able to hunt easily.
1352
1353It can’t be helped if it was a failure. As soon the titan wants to walk away, a faint noise entering his ears.
1354
1355The titan looks around quickly, eventually he found a small human-like figure standing in the tree branch.
1356
1357“・・・・What, a goblin! To think hiding in this such place”
1358
1359His eyes shine brightly, and then his mouth began to grin twistedly.
1360
1361At the same time, Eru who noticed something start to narrowing his eyes.
1362
1363“That voice, I do recognize it. It seems you are the same giant from other day. This might be some kind of fate”
1364
1365“What a luck. To able face my failure again. This time, for sure wipe it!” [5]
1366
1367The whole titan body infused with his fighting spirit. The titan gathering his power not solely for hunting but for a hot-blooded battle.
1368
1369“Goblin. Your luck already ran out without your owner eyes”
1370
1371“You don’t understand anything at all. As I told you many times before, we were not being kept by anyone at all”
1372
1373The Brave face loose its smile after hearing the fearless Eru answer.
1374
1375By slowly moving forward while measuring the distance, he glares at the top of the branch.
1376
1377“You awfully talk a lot. Are you saying you are ‘stray’? Then it would not necessary to snoop around didn’t you”
1378
1379“I just wanted to know about you guys”
1380
1381“I cannot understand. Just ask to your owner is enough for that. But・・・・I no longer emit any more word”
1382
1383The titan who carefully shorten the distance, landing his last step.
1384
1385At the same time, the stone axe cut down the branch into a small piece.
1386
1387Eru who think ahead, jumped out in the midair. As if they have been replaced, Eru now attempting to leap over the titan, but resulting the stone axe bounced up.
1388
1389Eru who still in the midair, by utilizing aero thruster magic he forcefully change the direction.
1390
1391The stone axe swings into the sky once again, and pierced through the ground pointlessly.
1392
1393“What a feat to able avoid my attack continuously! For a mere goblin, you are not bad. However!”
1394
1395“Honestly, what a giant! Was it your word is only for show!?”
1396
1397For a stone axe that used to beat huge demonic beast easily, sure have a bad affinity when aiming at small opponent.
1398
1399Yet, despite having been evaded countlessly, the titan swung up the stone axe again.
1400
1401With attack combining on stepping in, Eru once again avoided it.
1402
1403But, at that time Eru felt something wrong. There is something suspicious——soon he notices the reason. The titan’s third eye is always glancing his figure.
1404
1405The titan is not only having a lot of eyes. As consequence, their field of vision is wide and also have outstanding dynamic vision.
1406
1407When they mean glaring at the prey is.
1408
1409“!!”
1410
1411The stone axe that supposedly cutting an air, suddenly curved like a living being, and chasing after Eru in three times.
1412
1413Eru immediately change aero thruster direction but, what most terrifying is, the stone axe also able to change the trajectories.
1414
1415The Brave’s cheek filled with grinning.
1416
1417When he swings the stone axe, he deliberately pulls his strength. And by suppressing the momentum, he can move the stone axe freely. His aim was the gap between prey’s movement.
1418
1419For a titan, it was easy thing to do swinging without momentum. Even if Eru got hit from stone axe, he cannot come off without a hitch after all.
1420
1421Complicated movement to freely swing the huge stone axe with such weight, all of that due to the strength of the titan.
1422
1423The stone axe raises its roar and approaching Eru.
1424
1425In front of approaching a large mass. What on earth was he thinking, by posing up the gun staff to the front.
1426
1427Is he planning to catch a huge stone axe with that thin gun staff? There is no way to think other than desperation.
1428
1429Even so, he still took his gun staff toward the stone axe————in a second, there is compressive-air outburst occurred.
1430
1431Eru’s body blown off like a tree’s leaf after being overwhelmed by raging wind storms.
1432
1433The gathered air functioning as a cushion, furthermore he was able to escape to the distance.
1434
1435“Sonic Boom・・・・it’s been a long time huh?”
1436
1437As it is turn around in the midair, by using Air suspension magic he slowly going down to the ground.
1438
1439“Whaat・・・・!?”
1440
1441Before the spectacle, even the Brave start to distrusted his eyes to that extent.
1442
1443Although, swiftly avoiding the attack was still relatable. But, able to survive after receiving the overwhelming titan attack from the front is too unbearable for him.
1444
1445The Brave has a preconceived view toward the goblin as he has strength to crush them in piece.
1446
1447The titan began to forgot lifting up the stone axe, and then a smile broke into his faces.
1448
1449“How could・・・・haha! To able survive that! Goblin, I must apologize to you! For a mere goblin, you are the worthy Brave opponent. Then I am also, as a Brave will not display shameful fight! Hundred eyes, be my witness!”
1450
1451The titan acknowledged, he had no choice to admit it. In front of him, there is no mere goblin at all, he is worthy opponent who should not be disregarded.
1452
1453Therefore, as the Third Eyed Seat of Brave (Fortissimos De Terrias Okrys), he completely changed his posture.
1454
1455“・・・・you are really selfish, huh? None of mutual understanding can be done. Fine, Let’s hear it even if it just an obstinacy”
1456
1457Finally, Eru has reached the point to give up.
1458
1459He was preferring to negotiate, if they could start a proper conversation. With his ability, evading any attack was not hard at all.
1460
1461But, the titan in front of him somewhat convinced by himself, furthermore increasing his wariness. It was not the vibe that makes proper conversation at all
1462
1463There is one way to converse with a battle junkie.
1464
1465
1466
1467“I have one favor for me before we fight”
1468
1469“There’s no rule talking in the middle of the fight・・・ but, for a mere goblin. Fine, it would be your last word. I will consider it”
1470
1471He leans the stone axe on his shoulder, and then the Third Eyed of Brave look down with overconfident manner.
1472
1473If this was a battle between titan, exchanging conversation before the fight is considered become useless when the fight begins.
1474
1475However, this time is not a titan but a goblin. Was it the strongest composure or the matter of enthusiasm? The third eyed titan seems interested enough to hear it.
1476
1477After nodding, Eru nonchalantly opened his mouth
1478
1479“Let’s go somewhere else”
1480
1481“・・・・what?”
1482
1483The titan who excused him to speak. Intentionally respond with that kind of doubtful condition, he concerned about this stupidity.
1484
1485Still, the next word he speaks make the titan speechless.
1486
1487“Let’s go to your village, and fight there in front of everyone”
1488
1489Without confirming the true meaning in Eru words, the titan has no word to reply. Even the Brave, began to doubt his weariness.
1490
1491“In this fight with no meaning at all, should be displayed only once. Well, please guide me there”
1492
1493Disbelieving on what he hears, for the first time, the Brave finally look at the small figure clearly.
1494
1495The goblin that looks like a titan. They were only small and easy enough to trample.
1496
1497Whatever how big the size, he is the ‘Brave’, that is the truth which even the Brave himself admitted it.
1498
1499“Fine. Fight between the Brave must be acknowledged widely”
1500
1501While thinking in a short moment. The Brave nod his head solemnly.
1502
1503â—†
1504
1505Afterwards. The titan which located in the village, wondering about the Third Eyed Brave early arrival.
1506
1507“Third Eyed Seat? What happened, return with empty hands. Did you close your eyes while on hunting?”
1508
1509Even with that bizarre looks, will be replaced with surprised expression by the Brave responds.
1510
1511“Will change the enquiry to the wise man. Watch it”
1512
1513“What did you say!? We still haven’t sent the messenger. What on earth is happening・・・・!?”
1514
1515The titan who seek the figure of the Brave opponent in hurry, eventually discovering a hideous being.
1516
1517Behind the Brave, there is a small figure who was being accompanied without afraid or anything.
1518
1519The titans could not understand at all. While still stunned, the frightened titan asked the Brave.
1520
1521“Don’t tell me・・・・the enquiry to the wise man, will be that goblin!?”
1522
1523“Indeed”
1524
1525“What a fool!? Did your eyes become clouded, Third Eyed Seat?”
1526
1527“Nay. This is what I have been bestowed to call a Brave. As for the truth, it should be revealed after this”
1528
1529The titans look at the Brave with sudden turmoil, and without clearing the confusion, changed their line of sight.
1530
1531The Brave who become stubborn to this extent, how can they able to persuade it. And then, in a such terribly shrewd air, a savior appeared between them.
1532
1533It was the fourth eyed old woman who dressed in a gaudy decoration. The Sorcerer of Four Eyes Seat (Marga De Quortos Okrys).
1534
1535When the old woman come out in front of the titans, she glared at the Brave.
1536
1537“Brave. I have heard the story. Was it true, to give a goblin an ask to enquiry?”
1538
1539“I swear it on my eyes”
1540
1541The brave kneels down before her leaving his eyes on the forehead opened.
1542
1543After watching him kneel, hearing his words, the old woman groaned. The Brave word right now is the highest oath for the titan.
1544
1545The Brave knew immediately about how much is the unbending confidence he had.
1546
1547“If you say that much, then there is no room for me. What left is asking the Hundred Eyes・・・・”
1548
1549“No, please wait. Please don’t make the decision only by yourself”
1550
1551The objection that come from the unexpected place.
1552
1553The old woman, open her eyes which buried in the wrinkles and seek the source of the sound.
1554
1555Even though surrounded by huge figure, the small being who didn’t even show any shred of fear, cool and calmly standing between them.
1556
1557None of the titan, expecting this miserable mouth speaking its words.
1558
1559They do not know the reason why the Brave would ask to enquiry to the wise man so whimsically, besides they still believed and will not doubt on a mere goblin who can simply just be crushed.
1560
1561Yet that also, will be ended until this moment.
1562
1563“This is a duel. Then I want a demand if I win this fight”
1564
1565With just one breath the titan expression changed dramatically.
1566
1567With their Brave as his opponent, this small being is———speaking, with intention to win.
1568
1569“Fine, say it”
1570
1571“Brave!?”
1572
1573“That’s, between the goblin he must be the brave. Then, the Hundred Eyes must be pleased. That victory need requital”
1574
1575The titan’s line of sight now traverses through the Brave and Eru.
1576
1577The situation that going in front of them were already beyond anyone imagination.
1578
1579Gathering various clan, and then asking the enquiry to the wise man, why all of this happened at the time like this.
1580
1581Only one man, the only Brave who remain elegantly.
1582
1583“After I win the battle, you must hear what I’m trying to say”
1584
1585“What?”
1586
1587And yet, after listening beyond unexpected demand, even he (the Brave) couldn’t hide his bizarre looks.
1588
1589“Honestly, I don’t know what is the circumstances, you guys didn’t even to listen despite of how much I have been explaining all this time. If you guys really have a language, at least show me we can do proper conversation”
1590
1591“・・・Are you fine with that kind? This is the battle between Brave”
1592
1593Unlike the confused Brave, Eru puffed his chest and nodded proudly.
1594
1595The old woman who seeing all the details, buried her four eyes into the wrinkles.
1596
1597That small brave is, different matter with the goblin that Rubel Clan has been kept.
1598
1599There is no history, fighting a titan without using phantom beast help.
1600
1601Then, it would be something different from the old woman thought.
1602
1603Without hiding that doubt, the old woman said it with serious tone.
1604
1605“・・・・the preparation has been fulfilled. With this, as for the Hundred Eyes, we will ask the enquiry to the wise man. Brave, your name!”
1606
1607Formally, the beginning of the duel has been announced.
1608
1609At the moment, the surrounding titan become tightened. When the enquiry begins, there is no room for objection anymore.
1610
1611The Brave inhaling the air heavily, put his stone axe in the ground and puts out his chest.
1612
1613“My name is Wilts Fortissimos Terrias Okrys De Caelleus! The Hundred Eyes, be my witness!!”
1614
1615Afterward, he held his favorite stone axe.
1616
1617There is no reason for him to held back, even if his opponent is a small goblin. Yet, that such thing was futile, because this goblin didn’t even afraid a slightness thing against the titan.
1618
1619“My name is Ernesti Echavalier, I’m just a knight commander”
1620
1621As a prove, he glares at the Brave with the small blade on his hand.
1622
1623Next, after they introduce them-self, the two beasts start running in the same time.
1624
1625TL note:
1626
1627[1] original text : (ひどく彼の癪に障った。) hurt his eyes too much. For a giant, eyes meaning pride, name, or everything about their existance.
1628
1629[2] in this dialog, the original text were: 「魔導師、しからば！？」.( しからば) is an old fashioned word that have meaning like (Well then, please excuse me ). At first, I thought it was something like this (Hallo. My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die) kek

1633[4] 鳴報鳥(リンギンバード): Honestly, I don’t know how to spell this. All I know is the romanji of (リンギンバード) this (ringimbaado). So I thought it would be Ring-ring bird. As for鳴(sound, ringing, cry) , 報(information, communication, report), 鳥 (Bird). For now I called it sound chirping bird, or noise humming bird, or anything else if anyone know what is the best
1634

1637Holy shit, after checking and reread through this two chapters, I’m really sure this kind of translation is hard to read. Although it was still rough, there is no literature on it.

1641Oh, don’t worry I will continue my work.

1657
1658Chapter 92 Let’s Confront Enquiry to the Wise Man (Duel)
1659
1660There is one of titan’s clan called Kaellous who are now enveloped with unusual excitement between them. The reason of their excitement was the showdown between brave which is raised in the midst of preparing to ask an enquiry to the wise man.
1661
1662Without regard to their age and gender, all of the titan gathering in the center of the village. And in the center of them, there is a three eyed titan who received the Brave’s blessing, also a human boy who was not tall enough to reach the titan’s knee.
1663
1664While all the attention focused between two of them, Adeltrud who wear silhouette gear, sneaked into the village secretly. The titans raised their voice every time the Brave and Ernesti exchanging their blows. At the same time, Addy who snuck up behind the titan peeked at the battle situation.
1665
1666When the ground quaked every time the titan swings down the stone axe, Ernesti run around by evading it. After seeing that, Addy who hold her palm while wearing silhouette gear, quietly murmured.
1667
1668“Eru-kun, seemed pretty annoyed?”
1669
1670Was it regarding to pay no heed to what he says, or fighting without Silhouette Knight?
1671
1672“Maybe both. Oh, well. Anyway, while they at it・・・・”
1673
1674Thanks to Eru who challenging the Brave from the front, their houses was quite vacant now. Addy who move quietly as possible, invading the vacant house.
1675
1676“There is nothing much here”
1677
1678Inside the house that made accordingly to the titan size, was duller than what she imagined. There are tools that made for hunting and fighting. A repaired armor, and a simple weapon such as stone axe and club are lying around. Along with that, there were also have weapon looks like a spear. A thin grip with needle-like-spearhead were lined up, maybe they are used for throwing.
1679
1680What’s remaining is the preserved food that had been piled up which leaving a bad scent within the house.
1681
1682“Uu, if I know this going to happen, I should have fight too!”
1683
1684Other than that, no matter how many small tools sighted, that was not enough to call it something like a tool. Basically, the titan who have a robust body, only use few kinds of essential tools to live. There was mostly equipment for hunting, like weapon that has been made mainly from a stone and armor that has been made mainly from a beast material.
1685
1686“I think it would be impossible to build Silhouette Knight with this”
1687
1688The titan’s culture was completely different from what they expected. Eru might be disappointed. No, it’s probably not in the case. If it something possible he will challenge it, but if it was impossible to do, he will immediately be given up. If it was Eru, he would like to think so.
1689
1690As long as the titan can be used for heavy laboring, their technology was not matter at all.
1691
1692“Although, they didn’t have any technology. Then, at least they can be used for heavy laboring, right?”
1693
1694Once she has held someone like a fear, she was already considered them as a heavy labor resources, it seems she was already poisoned by Eru that much.
1695
1696With this Addy has completed her run through and looking around. Even if the duel with the titan ended with failure, the minimum result already has been achieved. While she doing it, a loud cry from the village center can be heard.
1697
1698“・・・・・・・There is nothing left to do! Is it fine to help Eru-kun soon right?”
1699
1700Although, to whom is she representing that kind of resolve to, now she started to run.
1701
1702â—†
1703
1704A stone axe runs through along with its roaring wind. Whatever it was Silhouette Knight or a titan, there is no human being who can receive their attack without a hitch. The destructive power that created by size and weight plus momentum was too overwhelming.
1705
1706But if only can hit the target thought.
1707
1708A small opponent who challenge the Brave——— Either way Ernesti was awfully too nimble. Even the blows of wind that made from stone axe attack couldn’t scratch him. The Brave already know about his swiftness several times before the duel, and now he had renown that difficultness again.
1709
1710“Was goblin such this tough opponent before! It seems my eyes still clouded after all!”
1711
1712Whatever it for hunting or fighting, it was normal for the titan to attack enemy while defend incoming enemy attack. Because the battle between gigantic being with overwhelming destructive power wouldn’t need any cheap tricks at all.
1713
1714Therefore, no matter how much the titan received the brave’s blessing, he has no experience on fighting with small and swift opponent. Although his struggle was due to Ernesti who specialized in extremely high-speed combat among the Knight Runner.
1715
1716The Brave was trying to catch the back of Eru movement by swinging the stone axe with various controlled pace of attack. But he wouldn’t get caught easily once the Brave has shown his real intention.
1717
1718The Brave realized that he was not getting anywhere moved on more boldly. The movement which didn’t really think about his defense at all. Although, it was understandable. For a goblin who use a small blade like that was not enough threat against a titan. Leaving aside damaging the armor made with demonic beast, even piercing the titan skin might be impossible after all.
1719
1720But why this goblin tends to fight with full of confidence?
1721
1722Their answer was appeared suddenly.
1723
1724The moment when the the Brave stepped on his all-out attack, suddenly a ‘fireball’ come from the air.
1725
1726“Nu!?”
1727
1728A fireball come out of nowhere flying through his side’s vision, and the Brave remarked in a small surprise. Although it was small, it was something that cannot be ignored. When he steeps strongly to kill the motion, he can avoid it by bending himself backward.
1729
1730In the same time, Eru took his distance from the Brave. With that movement, the Brave began to suspect his surrounding without distracting any attention.
1731
1732“Where did that flame come from?”
1733
1734But he was certain, it was not come from the goblin direction.
1735
1736“This goblin, I though he was the Brave first, but to think he was the sorcerer all along. I could not understand at all”
1737
1738The titan also knows about the magical phenomenon that can create flame. But they couldn’t understand when it comes out of nowhere.
1739
1740“I think its time to finish this”
1741
1742In a space which is dominated by doubt, only Eru who in settled condition.
1743
1744“You have attacked enough right? Next, I will be coming at you”
1745
1746The Brave start to take a step firmly without replying to him. No matter what he does, the Brave will not allow any petty trick anymore. And the only way is, to crush him in the front.
1747
1748That assumption was forced to be altered shortly afterwards. This time the fireball that come from the air were not only one. They come from right and left after another, all of them flying to the Brave blind side. As expected, it was impossible to dodge them all, the armor that had been licked by the fire leaving a brown mark on it.
1749
1750What strange from it is, the surrounding titans who watching the fight also couldn’t understand the true nature of Eru’s attack. They couldn’t think other than a fireball suddenly come from the nowhere.
1751
1752But there should not be ‘comes from nowhere’.
1753
1754Of course, there was a trap
1755
1756Surely, there is something that flies around the air. However, for a titan that was something so small and couldn’t be seen properly.
1757
1758“If Ikaruga was here, I call it・・・・’Rahu’s Fist’”
1759
1760Through a fist that connected by Silver Nerve to make magical phenomenon and shoot at long distance. It was named Rahu’s Fist, one of Ikaruga armament function as well as Ernesti beloved machine.
1761
1762The metallic scissors that can be driven using Crystal Tissue by relaying magical power through the Silver Nerve———matching it perfectly with ‘Wire Anchor’.
1763
1764“Unfortunately, this is a fight without Ikaruga but・・・・for now, I will become Ikaruga substitute so, lets endure it for a moment. Also, to train my intuition for not being too dull”
1765
1766While muttered, Ernesti took step forward.
1767
1768At the same time, a reel that positioned on his hip launched the Wire Anchor. Leaving the sharp jet-like sound and flies to the sky.
1769
1770Wire Anchor was originally created based on auxiliary device for movement. And he used it as a ‘Magical Launching Device’ to run in the midair.
1771
1772Following the ‘Script’ that had been sent through the Silver Nerve, the Wire Anchor can be used as intermediary to perform magical phenomenon in the midair. From that principle ‘Fire Ball’ magic can be released from that place.
1773
1774The Brave might able to capture Wire Anchor movement if he calmly observes at it. But, Eru was already in front of his eyes. To make the Brave took attention on Eru, he moves quickly so the Brave cannot afford to overlook him.
1775
1776While controlling the Wire Anchor, Eru took the Gun Staff and face it to the Brave. From there, a Fire Ball were launched one after another. And before he knows it, the Brave is confined with fireball from all side
1777
1778———The Brave was being toyed.
1779
1780The moment he realizes that fact, an explosion-like anger began to run through the Brave annoyed state. Even though each one of the fire balls is relatively small, attacked from either side can also too bothersome for him.
1781
1782A goblin who able to repeating this kind of attack was surprising at first, but on the second though it was still small kind of magic. Considering the armor durability, each one of them lacking firepower to inflict damage to the Brave.
1783
1784“You’re splendid, goblin’s braver. But if you can only do that much, you can only scratch me!”
1785
1786While the Brave body still barraged by magic, he was unleashing a brute force attack. The Brave thought, all of this will be ended if he can defeat his opponent first.
1787
1788Using tremendous force, he unleashed a sharp strike from above while running at high speed. Unlike before, this kind of momentum would be impossible to stop.
1789
1790“Yeah, I have been waiting for that kind of attack”
1791
1792Eru smiled while staring at the approaching stone axe. And now, he uses whole different magic.
1793
1794A faint light engulfing the tip of Gun Staff, that was also known as the activation of magic phenomenon. From there launched several sparkling lances of fire. That was the ‘Piercing Lance’ magic.
1795
1796“・・・・Canister Shoot”
1797
1798Without realizing, the stone axe got stuck between Wire Anchor which had been changing its position. The flame bullet that come from Wire Anchor and Eru. All of them launched toward Piercing Lance’s firing lane to the stone axe at once.
1799
1800Because of compressed flame bullets, the stone axe blade and handle turned into numerous lights. Immediately afterwards, a massive outburst occurred because of the light turned into electromagnetic properties according to the Script.
1801
1802The stone axe was eaten from inside and outside by countless flame bullets. Although the Brave weapon was indeed big and strong, originally it was just made by combining lumber and stone. And then, the stone axe now has been crushed in one clap.
1803
1804“I, impossible・・・・・!?”
1805
1806The astonished Brave’s face can be seen beyond the outburst flame and the scattering fragments. The Brave had made one big mistake. In order to defeat Ernesti, that kind of huge stone axe was not necessary at all. Eventually his fatal gap will be exposed after his usual accustomed weapon has been destroyed.
1807
1808Within the swirling flame, a silver radiance run through the scattering fragments. Ernesti who rush like a wind after seeing the Brave unrest expression.
1809
1810Using the hand as a footing, ride into the momentum of blowing air and run through to the Brave who still on same position when swinging the stone axe.
1811
1812As the Brave sight the approaching Eru. Soon the Brave known what his aim. Even for the Brave who wearing an armor and have a strong body due to strengthening magic effect, his weakness was already exposed. Eru true aim is his ‘Eyes’.
1813
1814“I wouldn’t let you!”
1815
1816The Brave instantly throw his stone axe remains, and preventing Eru attack by returning his arm. It can be said his reaction alone was too quick to be praised.
1817
1818Although, if his opponent was not Ernesti from the start.
1819
1820At that time Eru already in the front of the Brave. By using ‘Sonic Blade’ magic, a distorted edged-like blade attached on the Gun Staff. The Brave closed his eyelids and avoided the swinging blade by hairbreadth.
1821
1822“Gnu!! Gaah!”
1823
1824The blade cuts the eyelids and leaves a horizontal scar. The Brave fallen back hardly, while a red blood splatting from his face.
1825
1826By confirming his eyes was safe, he began to reforming his collapsed position while opening his eyes. And immediately searching Eru figure who have gone after kicking his helmet. For the Brave, moving with high speed and aim at the eyes from the blind spot was too dreadful tactic.
1827
1828On the other hand, the Brave trying to bend his body, and backwards jump in a distance. Of course, Eru did let him escaping from his sight. If Eru go around behind, he can still attack the Brave body. Otherwise, Eru can attack to the front or go back from the Brave sight. A truly attack and defense movement.
1829
1830As usual, Eru who went around to the Brave’ back, he accelerated his charge and swirling his body in the midair. As it continues descending to the ground. A rumbling sound can be heard when the Wire Anchor went back.
1831
1832The Brave began to lower his waist and sets his fist after seeing Eru figure. The brave who will not show any carelessness and unshaken feeling. Now, he didn’t think his opponent was too weak anymore. There is only, to build up the strength to defeat each other.
1833
1834No feeling despises anymore. Defeat it with small and swift strike. It might not only his eyes alone if he let Eru to strike him for the next time. The Brave calmed his remaining eyes and would not overlook any small movement.
1835
1836Because of the blood flowing from the torn eyelids, one of his eyes cannot be opened properly. While not getting angry about not being able to see, he calmly grips his fist. After opening his eyelids, he was learning first time in his life on how to fight against small enemies. He doesn’t need a big move. Just a quick and small move will do.
1837
1838And the titan who watching the fight, grasping their own breath. For a mere one goblin able to pin down the Brave was not imaginable for them. Although, there is nobody who can do that in the first place. Probably, if he was not the Brave, he might already fall on the ground while his eyes have been crushed. Leaving aside the size, his opponent is way too terrifying.
1839
1840For a moment, each one of them mutually reading their opponent moves.
1841
1842While not aware, the Brave began to smile. For him, to lost the stone axe might be good after all. In the first place, he doesn’t need that exaggerated weapon at all. All of the titan body including the enormous mass were already deadly weapon for him. He didn’t consider the advantage of having a huge body before, but he didn’t consider it as a disadvantage after think it calmly.
1843
1844“Thank you, My Hundred Eyes・・・・this is truly the duel between Braves!”
1845
1846After resolving himself, the Brave greatly stepped forward. The movement that increasing his concentration to the limit, and from that huge body leaving the sharpness that beyond imaginable.
1847
1848A plain stepping attack, from diving in. [1]
1849
1850Of course, Eru went to the midair. Aiming for that, a wiggling jab flying toward him.
1851
1852Eru who got caught on the raging storm of fist that pierced through the wind, dancing like a fallen tree’s leaves. Using the projected fist as a footing, Eru aimed to jumps higher than that.
1853
1854The Brave utilizing his size to broaden him arm widely. By mow down the widen arm as it is, he could create a suppressive attack.
1855
1856As he stopped swinging his arm, he could feel a slight discomfort. It was there when he glanced all over the place. By sticking on the Wire Anchor, the goblin was standing there on his arm.
1857
1858Eru who start running faster than the Brave who noticed his figure and want to waving his arm. The Wire Anchor flies into the air while passing Eru and rushing to the Brave.
1859
1860A flame is born in the midair. However, because that small fireball cannot inflict damage to the Brave, he ignored it and poked his head out.
1861
1862By ignoring his speculation, the flying Wire Anchor launch a magical phenomenon. It was specially dazzling, and run through in red. Also, that was not a fireball magic. ‘Flame Strike’———It was Middle Spell from fireball magic tree, which is more powerful than fireball.
1863
1864The fireball firepower that Eru has been used so far were indeed small but, he deliberately used it to bait the Brave. Afterwards, from the Brave sides, a fierce explosion can be heard.
1865
1866Although, the penetrating ability is much inferior than Piercing Lance, the explosive bombardment was much higher than a pure impact. And that firepower alone was enough to impact the helmet.
1867
1868Immediately afterwards, the Brave began to crumble in abnormal state.
1869
1870Run through the shoulder on the leaning titan, Eru swung up his Gun Staff. The magic has been activated on his twin sword. By using ‘Sonic Boom’, the compressed air and the shock wave overlapping each other hitting the Brave face. As if he had been punched by a titan, the Brave crashed intensely.
1871
1872The Brave head was greatly tilted over after being punched in the face, from that sight an opened jaw can be seen.
1873
1874Eru who jumped up from the collapsing titan, immediately sticking out his Gun Staff and releasing a barrage of Flame Strike as if the they were sucked into unprotected jaw. When the Flame Strike landed on the unprotected jaw, a great flame of flower bloomed on there.
1875
1876The Brave who received the Upper Cut bombing in the jaw, begin to float into the air and thrusting his head into the ground leaving the rising dust. With that trajectory alone, it could even draw a gentle slope mountain on it.
1877
1878By using Air Suspension magic, Eru landed on the top of sprawled Brave body. [2]
1879
1880The Kaellous clan who staring at the scene before their eyes. Their Brave who fell down in the center of the dust, and a small Braver who stand on the top of their Brave. A suffocating silence running through between them.
1881
1882At that time, the small Brave swallowed a deep breath, and asking unbelievable question with the small head of his.
1883
1884“Well then, how can you decide the outcome of this battle? It was indeed too troublesome for me to kill a giant”
1885
1886The Brave who has lost its consciousness and a goblin who look down on it. Before the surrounding titan began to panicking, the Fourth eyed old woman come toward at them.
1887
1888“My Hundred Eyes, the outcome has been brought. It’s already ended, goblin Braver・・・・it’s your victory”
1889
1890The surrounding titan looked each other and wanting to said something but, without saying anything they just petrified with puzzled looks on their face.
1891
1892In the meantime, a groaning voice can be heard from the fallen Brave.
1893
1894“Did you come to your sense, Third Eyed Seat?”
1895
1896“・・・・・・Did I, close my eyes?”
1897
1898While shocking his head sharply to make him come to his senses, he gets up slowly and unexpectedly calm without getting any remorse at all.
1899
1900“It was my loss”
1901
1902Before the old woman want to say something, the Brave suddenly say it by himself and asking while facing at Eru direction who just jumped out to the ground.
1903
1904“Why didn’t you end me?”
1905
1906“You are certainly big. I couldn’t even easily kill you”
1907
1908“Fu, sound reasonable”
1909
1910There is something changed inside him. When the Brave began to grin, he suddenly tightens his expression. From his position, he starts to kneel before Eru while not to wipe the blood that flowing from his forehead’s eyelids, he closed his unharmed eyes.
1911
1912“My small Braver, you are acknowledged by the Hundred Eyes. By following your victory, I will ‘obey your words’”
1913
1914“・・・・・・I think this kind of direction was a little off but. Well whatever, from the result, it was not problem at all”
1915
1916After Eru got seriously and nodded, a huge shadow overlapping each other.
1917
1918“That word, can I hear it too?”
1919
1920“My Sorcerer”
1921
1922The old woman also began to kneel next to the Brave and sat on the ground.
1923
1924Because of their height difference, it was hard to keep a conversation after all.
1925
1926“Before that, I must ask you goblin Braver. You said that you are not being kept by Rubel Clan, was it true?”
1927
1928“It was true. From the first place, you guys are the first giant I have meet”
1929
1930Although Eru was in serious expression, but for the titan that answer was too puzzling.
1931
1932“For the first time? Where on the earth you have been living before?”
1933
1934“A country far too west from here, the Kingdom of Fremmevira”
1935
1936Even though, it was the truth. None of the titan known that name, uselessly deepen the mysteries between them.
1937
1938The old woman narrowed her eyes while thinking about it, but the Brave nodded without hesitation.
1939
1940“・・・・The one who had been acknowledged by the Hundred Eyes. I will believe in your words. Without a doubt you are not from Rubel Clan”
1941
1942“I have been saying that from the beginning, did I?”
1943
1944The Brave touched his own wounded eyelid. Although the blood already stopped, the half-dried part stickily stuck on the fingertips.
1945
1946“Naturally, the one who hold this kind of power. I cannot imagine for Rubel Clan to able obeying them”
1947
1948There is a goblin that being kept by the titan. That was also a common sense among the titan. But even so, he cannot believe that kind of fearsome being able to tame it. Whatever who is the big clan, they definitely get their hand burned for sure.
1949
1950From the wound he owned, the Brave understood that. The fact that this goblin was accustomed on fighting against ‘huge being’.
1951
1952Did they have been hunting a titan, or a beast?
1953
1954In any case, he was worthy as the Brave. That’s enough for him.
1955
1956The Brave start to stand up and looked around.
1957
1958“Small Braver. From now I will treat you as a guest of our clan. Any objection, everyone?”
1959
1960The surrounding titan who look at the Brave and Sorcerer, began to stare at themselves in a confusion, but eventually nodded.
1961
1962They had been convinced because of the duel between two braves.
1963
1964Then the old woman also began to stands up.
1965
1966“Unknown・・・・clan name. I must ask further from your truth. It might become important guiding toward our clan”
1967
1968The old woman seized on Eru appearance.
1969
1970It was like trying to see something on his little body which had a sharpness.
1971
1972“A, did the fight already ended? As I though, you already win, Eru-kun!”
1973
1974At that time, a strange in lump of metal came through the titan. It was Addy who wearing Silhouette Gear.
1975
1976After seeing unfamiliar object and come straightly to Eru, the Brave narrowed his eyes like a warrior.
1977
1978“Is that also a goblin? The same Brave like you?”
1979
1980Gradually, the gaze becoming stronger. Eru who felt a disturbing situation groaned faintly.
1981
1982Although he was able to convince them with one duel, it would become hassle if they start asking to duel again.
1983
1984That why, he pointed his finger to Addy direction.
1985
1986“Umm. This is my・・・・wife”
1987
1988“Oh, it’s your wife”
1989
1990“!? Wifeeeeeee!!!!????”
1991
1992Even though the brave still in the middle of asking, somehow a big scream come out Addy.
1993
1994Ignoring all of it, Eu nods quietly.
1995
1996“Wife, married couple, mating. Such that kind of custom and words. Do you didn’t have it?”
1997
1998“Nay, we have, we have. But to think you are married couple. I see, with that kind of Brave, sound reasonable enough?”
1999
2000The goblin is too small for the titan. Among them Eru is particularly small than them.
2001
2002Although, he thought something unnatural in there, but the Brave was convinced by his blessing as a Brave who have various kind of power on him.
2003
2004By the way Addy was not caring the situation at all.
2005
2006After leaving the Silhouette Gear, she began to rush and embracing Eru.
2007
2008“Eru-kun, Eru-kun, Eru-kun, hufufufufufufufufufuhyou!!”
2009
2010“・・・・Calm down Addy. If I didn’t tell them that, we might repeat again that kind of duel. For a while, talking with a giant already succeed, and we got safe place to sleep too”
2011
2012Despite Eru explaining all of that, sure enough she didn’t listen to him at all.
2013
2014“It’s fine if we become that way, no, we must become that way”
2015
2016“・・・・・We can talk that for latter but, for now the surrounding gaze makes me uncomfortable though”
2017
2018Anyhow, they were located in the center of the titan.
2019
2020Being able to defeat the Brave was enough for them to keep their eyes on Eru.
2021
2022Of course, Addy would not care that kind of thing.
2023
2024“Eru-kun! After we got back, we should plan the ceremonies soon. Together with everyone, we will decorate Fort Olvecius! With Ikaruga grapping my Tzen-chan, we will go around everywhere!!”
2025
2026“You surely think the future too much. Although we just got acquainted with the giants, I still cannot see the way to return home yet”
2027
2028“It’s fine, really fine at all! Because I will kill anyone who become hindrance. I will do my best!!”
2029
2030Eru looks away as he given up while he guesses this will not stop for a while.
2031
2032“It was good to have a motivation”
2033
2034And for a while, Addy had turned into an object who always leaked a cringe laughter.
2035
2036Before those two-small people, the Brave confusion began to deepening again.
2037
2038“・・・・Truly, what on the earth are you guys?”
2039
2040“A missing knight commander and its assistant”
2041
2042As he though, the Brave didn’t understand at all.
2043
2044From now on, the titan will need quite a bit of time to understand this little brave.
2045
2046Like this way, is one of titan’s clan called Kaellous, visited by a rare guest and also began to live in the village

2072Knight’s & Magic Vol 7 Chapter 93
2073
2074
2075Chapter 93 What he always seeks
2076
2077Capital of Fremmevira Kingdom, Känkänen.
2078
2079On the city main street, there was a horse-like Silhouette Knight who lined through the center of the street. The Centaur Knight ‘Tzendrinble’, which designed by having upper torso as a human and the lower body of a horse, leading the other steel horse that making a hard-like sound mixing with the crowd.
2080
2081A large number of residents looking on the side of a street while cheering and waving their hand to the leading centaur knight. The flag of national crest of Fremmevira Kingdom and a Silver Phoenix’s emblem that spread its wings, raised on every building along the road.
2082
2083Eventually the Tzendrinble ceased their advancement after reaching Castle Shreiber.
2084
2085The centaur knight opens its armor and revealing the person inside the cockpit. The one who come from the cockpit is no other than Ernesti Echavalier, the commander of Silver Phoenix Knight. Unlike his usual knight runner attire, he was wearing glorious clothes used for ceremony.
2086
2087He turns the beautiful embroidered mantle over, and reach out his and to the cockpit. It was Aldtrud Olter, also as commander assistant who take his hand with her slender arm. Her attire was also not wearing her usual easy-to-move knight runner uniform, but a lovely dress which made by several layers of fabric.
2088
2089The two of them dressed themselves with their fullness.
2090
2091As Eru wanted to draw Addy’s hand, he turns his hand to her back after looking at hard-to-move dress and hold her with his both hands. Even though Eru looked too small for bearing Addy who have taller body than him, but that kind of problem was solved because of absurd benefit of his magical abilities.
2092
2093Eru who held Addy with his both hands smiled once, and immediately show himself from the Tzendrinble back with casual manner. While the mantle and dress skirt fluttering in the air, they use Air Suspension Magic to decelerate before reaching the ground. Afterward, those two fell down softly and letting their costume tucked each other. And then went to the castle while keeping their appearance as before.
2094
2095In the castle, the knight guards who holding a sword in their hand were lined up each other with a salute gesture.
2096
2097“Silver Phoenix Knight, the commander of knight order, Echavalier, entering!”
2098
2099The sound of trumpet and bell ringing together.
2100
2101Eru who still hugging Addy, continue walking on the carpet that stretches toward them.
2102
2103“Uehehehehe. Look, everybody is celebrating us!”
2104
2105“Yeah. Of course, they will do. Since this is our wedding ceremony, His Majesty will also be going to give us a word too”
2106
2107From her facial expression, Addy who still held by Eru looked as the happiness itself as she embraced Eru tightly.
2108
2109Although, with that position Eru should not able to see, somehow his footsteps were firm enough for him to walk.
2110
2111“I cannot believe we are able to held the ceremonies・・・I have been waiting for this long. It sure was difficult to find a way to get home back then!”
2112
2113While talking over each other, Eru began to step into the podium.
2114
2115In the vast space, the decorated Silhouette Knight were arrayed up while in the innermost presence, there are the King Riothamus seated on his throne and the King’s machine ‘Raids of Valor’, standing up behind him.
2116
2117Before the King Riothamus, the member of Silver Phoenix Knight Order; Boss, Edgar, Dietrich were lined up in a straight line. And in the far side of them there is Eru’s parent and Addy’s mother.
2118
2119“Don’t think too much about it, we’re already returned right. Well then, we have arrived. Everyone is waiting us, here we go my beloved Addy”
2120
2121“Yes, my dear, let’s go!”
2122
2123Eru who had dropped Addy, now holds her hand while walking together on the carpet that continued into the king. It was very unusual for a king to manage the ceremonies. But that also mean a person named Ernesti have a great influence in the kingdom.
2124
2125“I still cannot believe, I will together with Eru-kun as a married couple now・・・・”
2126
2127While walking, Addy still confirming the truth that befall before her. The bond she makes with him was more important than blessing from the surrounding.
2128
2129“From now on, we will be together, my beloved Addy”
2130
2131“Yes, I will definitely stay with you forever!”
2132
2133They are even fell into the demon’s forest back then, with no one can foresee difficulties that can separate them. Because now, Addy was filled with determination and unshaking confidence.
2134
2135“We will together・・・・as a married couple right. And then, we will have a child afterwards・・・・・・uhehehe, Eru-kun! How many children you want?”
2136
2137“I want a lot. If possible until we can make our own Knight Order with it”
2138
2139“Eru-kun・・・・・!”
2140
2141Although, they were still in the middle of the ceremony, Addy who in overexcited appearance tightly embracing Eru. Within her arm, Eru raises his face after smiling at her. Eventually their eyes were aligned and then those two faces closing each other.
2142
2143“Like I said Addy, it’s already morning”
2144
2145“・・・・・Eru-kun?”
2146
2147Eru suddenly asked if their lips were touching or not for no reason, which make him wonder what does she mean about it.
2148
2149The surprised Addy opened her eyes, and remembering the smiling Eru after closing to her face———
2150
2151“How long are you planning to sleep. Get up”
2152
2153———When Addy leisurely opens her eyes, the first thing she look was Eru worried face which covered in a blanket and shook Addy shoulder as she continued to daydream. While looking at her surrounding, there was nothing like a royal castle but it was nothing else than a simple tent.
2154
2155“・・・・・Mu. Huh? Eru-kun? Where is our Knight Order・・・?”
2156
2157“What are you talking about? We are now doing our best to get back to our Knight Order, right?”
2158
2159She was still spacing out for a moment but, gradually woke up for real this time and let out a big sigh.
2160
2161“It was a dream after all・・・・・”
2162
2163As soon as she is being sulky after feeling drained out, her hand was reaching out to the Eru waist that sat beside her, dragging her face and closely hug his chest. On the other hand, Eru who got embraced, softly hug her back with a bitter smile on his face.
2164
2165“Are you perhaps dreaming about the Knight Order? It sure had been long time since we got stranded on this forest”
2166
2167A half-sleep response can be heard between his arm if one of Addy’s curly hair got strained after going to fall sleep again. Eru muttered with a soft voice when he closely put his face on Addy ears.
2168
2169“Let’s do our best in order to return to Fremmevira, there are a lot of things we have to tell to my father, mother, and also aunt Ilma right?”
2170
2171Addy who was still trying to sleep again now waking up at once.
2172
2173“That right! We need to report for holding the ceremonies properly too!! Alright, Eru-kun, let’s do our best!”
2174
2175“Yes, yes. Let’s start it with breakfast first”
2176
2177Leaving aside the over excited Addy. Eru just walked over by bringing the pot with one hand.
2178
2179There is one small tent between the corner of the settlement in the Kaellous Clan, one of titan clan. A tent where Eru and Addy lives that looks like actual toys if it compared to the other tent.
2180
2181In the front of the tent, the pot placed on a small furnace that lit with fire. There is a small amount of wild grass and dried meat that had warmed up inside the pot.
2182
2183Those two always prioritize consuming the preserved food since they have come to this settlement. Although, no matter how much they preserve, one day it would not change for a food to become rotten.
2184
2185It sure was convenient to have a proper house. Because they were able to live in the titan settlement, they now afford to store things and arranging various thing in their tent.
2186
2187“You are rather late to wake”
2188
2189The voice come from over their head, the figure of Three-eyed Seat of Brave (Fortissimos De Terrias Okrys) sighted as they looked up. The brave who lightly dressed without helmet and armor got curious after seeing the small pot beside those two.
2190
2191“Hou. Is that your cooking?”
2192
2193“Yes, that’s right. Thank you for giving us your preserved food yesterday”
2194
2195“Do not heed. Your kind of appetite was too small for us”
2196
2197Although Addy and Eru always prioritizing to consume the preserved food, there is no way they could able to eat all of it. For a titan, giving two human who have different stature and appetite was too insignificant. Even if just the edge was already enough for two of them. But they were also securing the fresh food as well beside the food that had been hunted by the titan before.
2198
2199“Most of the giant eating by hunting the prey, right? Have you tried to eat a fruit?”
2200
2201“There is no fruit that can fulfill our belly. It also takes too much time to find. If our body was small like yours, it might be worth considering though”
2202
2203“It can’t be helped. But, somehow eating with just a meat, kind of too bland・・・・”
2204
2205In general, the dishes that made by the titan was most likely cooked through roasting the prey and most of the dishes were prepared by only using animals. As for other ingredient like fruit was not enough to fill their stomach. Although most of the plant that grown up in this forest were huge enough to have a giant fruit, but even so, its still can be considered as a snack for them.
2206
2207In this forest, they will never run out of beast to hunt. So, the meat was their staple food after all.
2208
2209Eru who finished his breakfast after having that kind of conversation, start to get up and seems like he decided on something.
2210
2211“As a guest, it seems we can’t always ask for food. Let us help your hunt too”
2212
2213“So, you wanted to hunt for yourselves. That’s a good spirit, let’s have a good sight of the Hundred Eyes together”
2214
2215The Brave nods his face. Although, they were not worrying about sharing their food. Compared to how much they usually eat, Eru and Addy portions were nothing to fulfill stomach at all. Nonetheless, there is nothing wrong either if they wanted to collect their own food.
2216
2217That was the Brave though first, but Eru shook his head and denying the Brave statement.
2218
2219“No, we will help hunting the same prey like yours. Although, it wasn’t that much, we will gladly lend our strength”
2220
2221“What?”
2222
2223After the Brave heard Eru proposal, he began to twist his head strangely. While the Brave still looked contemptuous, Eru and Addy who finished cleaning their meal, began to prepare swiftly. In the end, the two of them entering the forest after persuading the Brave who still leaning his head in confusion. Although, the Brave didn’t notice that he was being drifted on the moment.
2224
2225In the forest, a titan footstep can be heard clearly because of their weight. Indeed, their size were big yet, their walking speed were also fast. In this world, because of the strengthening effect could strengthen the body, an enormous existence can be petty agile regardless of the size. Despite of their speed, the two small shadows flies around between the trees.
2226
2227Eru, and Addy who wearing the silhouette gear.
2228
2229They were utilizing the Aero Thrust magic on tree’s branch as a footing then proceeding to fly away. This way would be faster than running normally.
2230
2231After proceeding through the forest, eventually they caught presence of a beast among the trees. A wild boar-like duel class beast with a huge tusk as a main feature of their body.
2232
2233The Brave hold his new stone axe and take his stance after comes forward to the front.
2234
2235“Fumu. You two, wait here. Immediately got one, I’ll get the food at once”
2236
2237“That’s won’t do. Since we already here, let’s us show how we hunt first.・・・・・Addy”
2238
2239“Ro-ge-r”
2240
2241Although the Brave wanted to say something, the two of them already flies around leaving the speechless Brave. They left behind a titan who somewhat having a complex expression after remembering the duel he had not too long ago.
2242
2243The small hunters quickly shorten the distance to the demonic beast. And after they got close, the demonic beast finally realized their presence.
2244
2245While it looked like a wild boar, it was still classified as a duel class demonic beast. Sighting Eru and Addy who got close at a tremendous speed yet, the beast reaction was too dull. Originally, that kind of beast was not being cautious after all.
2246
2247And that kind of negligent would be fatal. There is no mercy for those two who aim to hunting the beast. As Eru jump forward by using his foot, there is a countless magic released at once. His aim was the beast leg, although it was a non-powerful magic, anyone couldn’t ignore the power if it launched one after another in a concentrated point.
2248
2249A small-like explosions continued toward the leg’s joint. The demonic beast leaking a short scream as soon as tilting its own body. But the beast quickly regained its stiffness and began to take back its position. As they though, that four legs were no joke at all, it wouldn’t fall down even if it already wounded.
2250
2251The demonic beast raises its scream and quickly turns into a rage, eventually start looking for the small enemy———the figure of Eru who attacked and turned it into that state. Normally, the beast wouldn’t mind at all but, in the case when the beast got hurt, there is no reason to overlook it.
2252
2253However, that kind of behavior already anticipated by those two. After the beast got enraged, this time Addy comes to the beast’s blind spot. The magical phenomenon has already activated on the palm of her Silhouette Gear. Her target was also the leg’s joint. A flood of fireball magic aiming for the unscratched forefeet.
2254
2255The demonic beast raises a brief scream again. But this time, the beast was unable to endure the damage and eventually fall down to the ground. Even for the demonic beast couldn’t stand a chance if their feet were injured. A two small shadow now approaching the demonic beast who trying to get up after enduring the injured feet.
2256
2257
2258
2259The Three-eyed Seat of Brave who behold that kind of spectacle, can’t help to cross his arm and raises a groan.
2260
2261“As I expected for the Brave who could beat me・・・・”
2262
2263In front of his eyes, the demonic beast who got cut on the neck, splatted its blood and collapsed. As the bleeding continues, the demonic beast movement gradually weaken.
2264
2265A splendid demonic beast which have a firm meat and muscle, also having superior rushing power by utilizing its own weight. Even if the opponent were the titans, it could even break their bone. Of course, the Brave could take it down alone. But this time, the one who attained it were two goblins. To response with that, the titan Braver show its head in amazement.
2266
2267“Hunting together, and eat together. This is more than a guest”
2268
2269While the Brave nod his head in consent, Eru had come to his feet as if he was feeling apologetic for some reason.
2270
2271“I’m sorry. There is something I would like you to help me”
2272
2273“What. You already take it down. There is nothing I could help you to slay it”
2274
2275“Err, no. Although we certainly slay it, we sure will have trouble if we take it to the settlement by ourselves・・・・”
2276
2277“・・・・Sound reasonable”
2278
2279In the end, not only his own prey but the Brave also carrying Eru and Addy prey to the settlement. Next time, he secretly decided to bring more people as baggage holder when they go out for hunting.
2280
2281In the center of the village, the gathered titans filling the crowded grounds. It was a rare scene in the past but, soon after Eru and Addy lives here, it has become frequently can be seen.
2282
2283There is a duel class demonic beast corpse in the center——the hunted prey. That was one of their prey.
2284
2285“I am, by offering the Brave eyes, I will swear to the Hundred Eyes. This prey is surely hunted by the goblin Braver”
2286
2287The Brave began to explains to everyone. As the one who know that battle, the titan also recognizing the goblin Braver were strong enough. However, the amazement precedes them after seeing them doing the same thing like themselves.
2288
2289“Therefore, they were not only as a guest. As the one who hunt and eat together, we should welcome them as a companion in our clan”
2290
2291It was like a rule for them. When wanting to joint another clan, it was required to hunt and eat together before recognized as a member of the clan. Although, it was unprecedented to applying to a goblin yet, all the titans were already giving their consent.
2292
2293After the Brave nods with satisfactorily, he swift his sight into the small person on his feet with gloomy expression.
2294
2295“But I was forgot about this・・・・if it is a member of the clan, you must decorate yourself with the prey you hunted but”
2296
2297The titan’s clan traditionally make various weapon and armor using the prey they hunted. By doing that, they can clearly display their competence to the surrounding. For that reason alone, the prey they hunted for the first time is regarded as important. As for the titan who don’t have that much, making the tools using that kind of material was customary to make memorable items.
2298
2299If Eru and Addy use the hunted beast’s material, they could make many tools and equipment as they like. But the problem is, there were no technology for the titan to make the ‘smaller one’.
2300
2301Eru who looked at the puzzled Brave, nodded with a smug smile on his face.
2302
2303“Yes. Since we already accepted as clan member, I’d like to make an armor with this prey”
2304
2305“Nu, although I want to give it as a celebration, to match with goblin is・・・・”
2306
2307While the Brave cross his arm and worrying it, Eru respond it with a calm and fresh expression.
2308
2309“Don’t worry about it. You can make it the ‘same’ armor like yours”
2310
2311“・・・・・It’s not possible for you to wear it. No matter it was a celebration for a new clan member, if you cannot use it then there is no meaning making it”
2312
2313As expected, they couldn’t let the two small Braver using the same armor like them. It’s not like there is a problem with it, but for sure they would likely be crushed. For the Kaellous clan who didn’t have close relations with the goblin, they couldn’t sure how to handle this kind of case.
2314
2315“No, I’m not forcing myself to wear it. However, since this is an occasion, you can decorate it to somewhere”
2316
2317“・・・・Fumu. If you wanted it that bad, fine then. I am as a Brave will prepare an armor for you”
2318
2319Although the Brave was somewhat irritated, but somehow Eru able to convince him that there is no difference in decorating for the honor anyway.
2320
2321“Ah・・・・・I might know what are Eru-kun thinking right now”
2322
2323Addy, the only one person who always known Eru for a long time can imagine what kind of treatment he wanted to do with the titan. As for the titan, they were genuinely wanted to make the armor by using the demonic beast skin with honor.
2324
2325The huge leather armor made by duel class demonic beast which Eru and Addy had been hunted not too long ago was stored inside the Brave’s house. There is no way for this huge thing could enter Eru and Addy house, and yet the Brave didn’t even hesitate or suspicious thinking about it.
2326
2327The armor that made from the prey for the first time. Unlike the titan, Eru was pleasingly looking at it with a joy. While Eru looked like he was imagining things with a smile, Addy strangely take her distance from him.
2328
2329“Still planning something again・・・・”
2330
2331“No, no way I plan something dangerous. If we could process all kind of thing with this condition, I just thought if we could make a Silhouette Knight by using this leather”
2332
2333Of course, Eru was not thinking to make a leather armor just because they were in occasion. What he always aims is only one. A huge humanoid weapon———to make a way to build Silhouette Knight.
2334
2335“Hmm, but I’m sure it will be difficult. We could might use the Inner Skeleton as substitute for demonic beast’s bone? Or might not”
2336
2337Addy began to counting her finger. No matter how much they could make the outer body, they still couldn’t make the Silhouette Knight. Because, there is no inner part to move them away.
2338
2339Eru also nodded at Addy statement. In the first place, there is too many problems to begin with, but there were two main problems.
2340
2341“The last thing we would need is Crystal Tissue after all”
2342
2343“Uun. Then, why not we ride inside the giant instead!”
2344
2345“That would be a normal giant then”
2346
2347While exchanging the vague discussion, they were thinking about any various possibilities. Leaving aside about Eru’s hobby, they surely need Silhouette Knight to return back to Fremmevira Kingdom. Addy was also encouraged about it too.
2348
2349“However, using demonic beast as a material・・・・・I couldn’t even think about this back in the kingdom”
2350
2351“Isn’t that too troublesome?”
2352
2353“That’s right. Its only takes much time and effort for processing it”
2354
2355Back in the kingdom, there are blacksmith who have wielded technology and have enough facilities to process metal. Also, it was more flexible when using metal as the material. In that sense, using material from demonic beast was sure hard to handle. Didn’t even fulfill the standard and mass producing, it can be said that is a method which emerged in emergency situation.
2356
2357“Its not just a matter time and effort. Because a living being is filled with their own Mana and Script, it would not accept any other than them even if we overwrite it. That’s why the Crystal Tissue that can be moved and controlled from the outside is very useful”
2358
2359Furthermore, it was not so easy in the case using the demonic beast as a material. Because there are various restriction exists.
2360
2361“On the contrary, if it just a corpse that can suspended the mana supply and maintain it by using a script, it would be possible to use it as a material on that kind of basis, though”
2362
2363“Eru-kun. As I thought, wouldn’t too much riding such a Silhouette Knight that made from dead demonic beast meat”
2364
2365“Yes, first of all, that kind of thing would likely rot soon after we make. The mobile efficiency also still uncertain too, as I thought it was not practical at all”
2366
2367Although, Addy reason was fundamentally different from Eru, she decided not to mind it deeply.
2368
2369“Crystal Tissue are crystal catalysts, that has been modified through alchemy. In other words, it doesn’t exist naturally. We can’t also dig it out either. Umu, I didn’t have much knowledge about alchemy though・・・・・”
2370
2371With materials and technology, Eru will accomplished it no matter how long it takes. But there were too many things left.
2372
2373“If we could salvage any Silhouette Knight nearby”
2374
2375“Then what about Shii-chan? Although it was crashed and already broke, the inner part should be fine”
2376
2377The Syrphrine was destroyed after crashing from the impact, while Ikaruga had almost lost all the parts other than the center. And if they recover it, it could be used as a material.
2378
2379“Of course, I will collect both Syrphrine and Ikaruga. But that alone were not enough right. I wonder where we could find many Silhouette Knight lying around・・・・・haaa. I want to go to the western countries and pick up some wreckage”
2380
2381“Isn’t that too much convenient for us～”
2382
2383Although Addy was already fed up with it, while Eru suddenly think another possibility.
2384
2385“・・・・・No. Perhaps, it might not be the case”
2386
2387Eru was smiling faintly towards Addy who has a strange look on her face.
2388
2389“Historical question: What is the reason Bocuse Sea of Trees becoming prohibited land before Fremmevira Kingdom established?”
2390
2391“Eh? Err, a・・・・・the ‘Forest Military Campaign’?” [1]
2392
2393——Forest Military Campaign.
2394
2395It was a history when the entire human race was burning in the ambition to rule everything after the west already conquered by eastern army. The disastrous military campaign that crossed Aubigne Mountain Range by gathering a large-scale division of Silhouette Knight toward the Bocuse Sea of Trees.
2396
2397Although at that time, the Silhouette Knight was far more inferior than the latest one. The division demonic beast was also treated as brigade class demonic beast back then. Furthermore, the demonic beast that living in the forest was catastrophically tyrannize the Military Campaign until destroyed. Eventually wears down to the extent barely annihilated, and returned with the remaining main troops.
2398
2399Although the campaign was considered as a big failure, the only achievement is succeeded securing some territory on the east of Aubigne Mountain Range. After that incident, that land will be known as the Fremmevira Kingdom.
2400
2401In the first place, there is meaning when using Levitate Ship as a preliminary survey for the second Forest Military Campaign.
2402
2403“Its still unknown how deep they come to Bocuse. But the possibility for recovering their heritage should not be impossible after all”
2404
2405No matter how low is the hope, Eru could not help to expecting it to be happen. If the debris still remains and reusable, his goal will be increased significantly.
2406
2407“And if we were able to gather all the material・・・・the remaining problem is, one more. Very important problem”
2408
2409Addy was puzzled. She thought after hearing all of the problem, it would be possible if they can do something about the material.
2410
2411“That point is, from the collected material, how can we assemble it into a Silhouette Knight”
2412
2413If Boss was here. Even it will take time, they could able to assemble it. Certainly, Eru is knowledgeable about the design, but its not like he can do any blacksmithing. In the first place, it was necessary to have many skilled people to build Silhouette Knight.
2414
2415“Hey, hey! We know how to use demonic beast material. We might manage to build it even without Boss assistance, right?”
2416
2417“I see. We can also plan to educate the giants if it comes to・・・・ufufufufu”
2418
2419Addy keeps her distance and hit her hand after Eru who began to leak his ecstatic laughter.
2420
2421“L-let’s pick up Shii-chan first! Ah, was it better for Ikaruga first? Shii-chan won’t even move if we don’t do something to Etheric Levitator, right?”
2422
2423“Well, yes・・・・・yes? Huh? Technically speaking, the Levitator was more important considering the way we could go home”
2424
2425“I see. We did think to return by walking, right. But isn’t that more complicated than Silhouette Knight?”
2426
2427It was out of the question if they were returning by walk from the distance that traveled using Levitate Ship. Also, even if they can build the Silhouette Knight, it should be difficult to return from walking alone.
2428
2429They could do faster than using their body. But, if they move without stop, the Silhouette Knight will be exhausted. Furthermore, it might be broken again after encountering the demonic beast along the way. The most realistic way to leave the forest was securing the ‘way to flies in the sky’.
2430
2431“Too much problem!! Give up?”
2432
2433“Not really. Since it come to this, let’s use the demonic beast until the most. For now, let’s study about the Stained Beast’s material”
2434
2435Eru was remembering Ikaruga’s last battle. He saw it during that battle, a Stained Beast was flying with the shining rainbow wings. That light is similar to Etheric Levitator reaction. In other words, it can be assumed that Stained Beast is also flying with the same principle.
2436
2437While Eru seemingly motivated, Addy had confused looks on her face.
2438
2439“Are you sure? Isn’t that Eru-kun enemy?”
2440
2441“For me they were an enemy I must destroy, and if they were died, that would be a good thing, right?”
2442
2443Although it was such a dangerous reason yet, since there is no other person who could respond his statement, Addy was able to convinced so easily.
2444
2445“Alright, lets talk with the giants first. After getting along, they will come and help us to gather the materials・・・・we should think how can do from now on”
2446
2447With this, they were going to spend their days in the titan settlement while continuing various trial and error for their own purpose.

2452
2453First, I have a good news.
2454
2455After discussing each other, I got an editor who gladly edit my translation into something easier to read than mine.
2456
2457He’s already working on the chapter, sooner or latter I’ll post it after he send to me his work.
2458
2459The second one, after thinking I got an editor now. I’m trying to give more extra careful when I translating the chapter, so in the future the editor burden would be not too much.
2460
2461As for the translation, I’m sorry for the misunderstanding.
2462
2463I’m still confused about (降下甲冑), when I first read it, I thought it was something like the (Silhouette Gear), but after I reread through vol 6 it was something like (Gear Ejector).

2474
2475
2476“・・・・Well done, for coming here”
2477
2478Far from the side of a wide tent, a voice can be heard from the darkest part. The master of the tent, the Sorcerer of Four-eyed Seat exposing her wrinkled eyes after looking at the visitors. Among the tent around the Kaellous Clan’s settlement, there is a place where the Clan Chief residing in a large and more dignified tent.
2479
2480Although the entrance was made for the titan size, the two small shadow simply standing on the widely opened curtain. Ernesti and Adeltrud who’s referred as a goblin for the titan.
2481
2482“I hear you need something from me today”
2483
2484“Indeed, thank you for coming. Please come here”
2485
2486The old titan waving her hand to invite the small guest. After that, she poured a tea (or something like that) on the huge stone bowl and put it in the front of those two as her hospitality. Even though it was used only for the titan, that bowl alone already surpassed Eru height in a slight margin. However, they were nonchalantly bringing the container and drink it as they already used to.
2487
2488While the two of them catch their own breath, the old woman gently opens her mouth.
2489
2490“I have nothing else to ask other than the goblin who lives in this land and also commonly kept by Rubel Clan. However, you two were not from that clan, no? Please let me hear the truth”
2491
2492“I see, it will be a long story. Would you mind it?”
2493
2494“Of course. This is my duty as a Sorcerer. Speak it to your heart’s content”
2495
2496While sipping the tea, the Sorcerer nods her head.
2497
2498“I understand. Well then, first let me tell you about where I come from・・・・・”
2499
2500Afterward, Ernesti Echavalier began to speak.
2501
2502To the west far from the forest where the titan lives, there is a place where the human lives. They formed many countries and lives within it———
2503
2504The old woman who keep listening quietly for a while, now slowly open her eyes like there was no wrinkles in the first place.
2505
2506“A country where the goblin lives・・・・there is no giant, but only goblin country, huh?”
2507
2508“From our respective, you guys were the first giant we encountered after being stranded in the forest”
2509
2510“In the west, was it truly many goblins live in there? Then, were you two also come from the west?”
2511
2512“I don’t know. In the first place, we still don’t know if the goblin was truly same race like us”
2513
2514Addy who got bored after the old woman and Eru talking in a long time, finally barged into the conversation.
2515
2516“We come from the country called Fremmevira Kingdom. Our objective is to explore this forest. And for that reason, ・・・・”
2517
2518Eru continued her story. About a huge weapon that can match the titan, the existence of Silhouette Knight. And embarking to the forest by using the Levitate Ship that can soar the sky.
2519
2520As they expected, when they told about the Levitate Ship to the old woman, she was clearly exposing her eyes as she understood all of that.
2521
2522“・・・・Is it the truth? Its hard to believe for a goblin who lives in the west. But then, why only you two left after all of that happened”
2523
2524“In the middle of our journey, we encountered the Stained Beast and fought against them”
2525
2526It seems the old woman finally understood the situation now.
2527
2528“We certainly dealt massive damage to the bug that attacked us. However, both my giant and the bug were destroyed each other. In the end, together with Addy, we got stranded on this forest”
2529
2530“For you to able manipulate the Mystical Beast [1]・・・・wait, in that case, the corpse that had been found by the Brave. Was it the Stained Beast you two have slayed?”
2531
2532The old woman began to leak a groan from her mouth after looking at Eru who nods his head.
2533
2534“I see. There is no such word other than an amazement. Previously, my eyes might have not able to perceive that. But, after seeing you able to defeat the Brave, that kind of valor must be happened. The Hundred Eyes might be aware of you two too.・・・・This is such bountiful time, being able to know the truth behind the tip of the Hundred Eyes vision”
2535
2536Once again, the wrinkles around the old woman face began to succumb her eyes, meanwhile Eru opened his mouth and start to ask the old woman.
2537
2538“If I may, can I ask you something?”
2539
2540“Do not heed. I will answer everything I know”
2541
2542“What kind of・・・・being are the goblin, who under Rubel Clan rule? Were they truly same like us?”
2543
2544Addy who still in the middle of her drowsiness trying to get up after lying on Eru’s lap. She was also curious about the goblin’s true identity.
2545
2546“What I know is; they have same appearance like us, their height couldn’t even reach our knees, and they have the same eyes like the Deuce-eyed Seat (Seconda Okrys) [2]. However, they couldn’t do anything for themselves, and just listen to our words. In the end, only Rubel Clan who obsessed on keeping them”
2547
2548The old woman said so after bringing her face closer to them. While looking back at the huge eyes, Eru start to tilt his head.
2549
2550“In the past, are they also residing on this land too?”
2551
2552“I do not know. But I’m certain that long ago before me, they were already residing here”
2553
2554A race like a human already have lived here since the previous generation of the titan. From their appearance, by only having one pair of eyes, can be said they have close relation as a human rather than a titan.
2555
2556“・・・・・In that case, can we take them as our allies? No, I understand. Well then, just one more question・・・・・about the Stained Beast. Are they not demonic beast? And why they were also under Rubel Clan rule?”
2557
2558“Like I know! In the first place, they were an enemy for every clans!”
2559
2560The respond comes from Eru and Addy’s back rather than the Sorcerer that lies ahead. When they trying to turn their back, they could see the Brave who standing in the entrance.
2561
2562“I have heard your stories. As the one who had been acknowledged by the Hundred Eyes, it was splendid O goblin’s Braver. Was it your Mystical Beast who slew that Stained Beast?”
2563
2564As the Brave continued to talk, especially he was entering without reserve. And the Sorcerer seems didn’t try to stop him either, rather she was serving tea for him. While sipping the tea, the Brave sits down next to Eru and Addy.
2565
2566“Are you believe it?”
2567
2568“Didn’t I have promised with you before, I will not doubt”
2569
2570The Brave exposing his teeth with a big grin. After that, he narrowed his eyes as he remembers something.
2571
2572“The Stained Beast is our nemesis. They were soaring the sky while spreading their stains. In the first place, their target were not only us, but every living being in the whole forest were their prey”
2573
2574Certainly, they are bug-type demonic beast who flies on the sky while sprouting the toxic——a strong acid as a weapon. After encountering them in the forest, it was easy to imagine about how difficult to dealt with them.
2575
2576“We have always fight them from our ancestors. It can be said slaying them was one of the Brave duties・・・・・alas! After the eye’s incident, they were obeying the Rubel Clan now! That was the beginning of everything!”
2577
2578“Sounds like it happened recently then?”
2579
2580“Indeed. It was happened after ‘The Eye of Truth’s Disturbance’[3], while the Hundred Eyes still not around”
2581
2582Eru and Addy looked at each other.
2583
2584“The Eye of Truth’s Disturbance?”
2585
2586“That Rubel Clan bastard! They were jealous on the chosen’s Hundred Eyes! They were blemishing our throne!!”
2587
2588“Throne?”
2589
2590“That’s right! There is only ‘Six-eyed Seat (Sexts Okrys)’[4] who able to call themselves as a king. Anyone who have less than that is worthless!”
2591
2592While they were talking, the Brave’s breath become rougher. No matter how much time flies, it seems his anger is still vivid. More importantly, Eru began to point another question.
2593
2594“Perhaps the more eyes you have, likely to be chosen as a king isn’t it? Not considering the person abilities?”
2595
2596“There is no such thing. From the start the Six-eyes Seat is the closest being to the Hundred Eyes. And if the Six-eyed Seat reign the throne, the Hundred Eyes will reveal more eyes to observe us”
2597
2598For the titan, the meaning of royalties was very different from Eru’s knowledge. To depends on the supreme beings, it seems has strong nature to meditate with a God rather than a King. Furthermore, unlike human beings, it was required to have specific physical features.
2599
2600“So, it was something like that. Now then, what would you do if the Six-eyes Seat is not around?”
2601
2602“When our eyes were not enough, our deeds will not reach the Hundred Eyes. Hence, we will hold the wise council and will endure until the birth of a new Six-eyed Seat”
2603
2604“That was quite unique method. Then now, there is no Six-eyed Seat’s reign, right?”
2605
2606The moment the Brave heard Eru question, he suddenly opens his eyes while standing up eagerly.
2607
2608“Yes! The Fifth-eyed Seat (Quints Okrys) [5] from the Rubel Clan bastards!! Even though the eyes were insufficient, they shamelessly claimed the throne!! What a bunch of ridiculous! With this, the Hundred Eyes will close the eyes!!”
2609
2610The old woman who had been silent for a while, once again open her mouth.
2611
2612“However, among the clan in this land, the Rubel Clan is the largest and blessed with many eyes. Although up until now, they have taken the throne many times before”
2613
2614“I see. So, they finally ignore the required number of eyes after they have the biggest populace”
2615
2616“That’s it! For such foolishness proclaiming as a King that has been foretold by our ancestors. In addition, the Rubel Clan has acknowledged this shameful act! Normally, they must repent the disgrace first!!”
2617
2618After the Brave condition has calmed down, he loosens the firm grips of his fist.
2619
2620“・・・・There is no clan will want oppose this kind of savagery. No, there’s no one! But・・・・!”
2621
2622“And the Stained Beast・・・・who supporting behind all of this by force, right”
2623
2624“Yes. For such thing, the whole clan’s nemesis——the Stained Beast began to abide Rubel Clan reign. Many Braves fall down after receiving their stains in The Eyes of Truth’s Disturbance”
2625
2626Finally, the Brave return to sit down again. Unlike before, he no longer feels the anger. Instead, a strong regret shows on his face.
2627
2628“We, couldn’t stop them. But・・・・・in contrary, it might be the best if the Six-eyed Seat hasn’t appeared yet. We couldn’t bear if the Hundred Eyes seen our deed for something like this”
2629
2630Eru cross his arm beside the depressed Brave.
2631
2632“・・・・The Stained Beast, and goblin? Fumu, the more I hear, the more I know about Rubel Clan who have different from others”
2633
2634What kind of conclusion did he find out? While thinking about it, the Brave who sat beside him began to strike his fist.
2635
2636“But not yet! O goblin’s Braver. You two already have slayed the Stained Beast, no? This is mean, the Hundred Eyes have shown its path. We must correct the mistake, by repenting this disgrace!”
2637
2638“In other words, we must fight against Rubel Clan? Certainly, the number of Stained Beast were already deceasing, but aren’t they still the largest clan, right?”
2639
2640As the Brave looked down at Eru face, he greatly nods his head.
2641
2642“I’m aware. But this is our true enquiry, we cannot leave it by. We need more eyes to correct their path. Therefore, we gather the other clans and ask enquiry to the wise man”
2643
2644“Are you perhaps, in order to prepare that, you had been hunting from all of this time・・・・”
2645
2646Eru confused on how to handle this situation. Their journey somehow given a huge impact to the titan who lived here.
2647
2648“It seems I have no more time to be relaxed”
2649
2650At that time, Addy who was beside him, pulled the tip of Eru’s clothes.
2651
2652“The giant seems like want to start a war but, what should we do? should we help them?”
2653
2654“For some reason, we become the main cause of this conflict. But its not like we are already hostile with the Rubel Clan. More importantly, I don’t want to fight without Silhouette Knight”
2655
2656“As I thought, that was the problem eh・・・?”
2657
2658Seeing the two of them discussing each other, the Brave began to move his mouth and barging in on their conversation.
2659
2660“The goblin’s Braver. Although you two already become the member of our clan, but that doesn’t mean you need to joint the battle. This is what we must shown to the Hundred Eyes”
2661
2662“Indeed. I’m already satisfied with your strength in defeating the Stained Beast”
2663
2664The Sorcerer also nods her head.
2665
2666Eru start to straightened his figure, and look up to the two titans.
2667
2668“・・・・・If we could, we want return to our home. And for that reason, we want to prepare everything we can”
2669
2670“I see. The wanderer and also as a goblin’s Braver. We, everyone in the Kaellous Clan will lend our hand for our companion. If you ask our help, we will gladly lend our strength”
2671
2672“It’s truly splendid for a giant that will lend their strength for us. We are in your care”
2673
2674While Eru smiling happily, Addy was showing delicate expression after thinking about the strength definition was different from what they mean.
2675
2676â—†
2677
2678The time has flies and the villager was bustling with noise since the conversation had finished. The massager has returned after informing every clan in the vicinities.
2679
2680“Many clans will participate according to the response of ask an enquiry to the wise man”
2681
2682“As expected, we can’t allow the Rubel Clan doing. The Hundred Eyes will never forgive this mistake”
2683
2684In order to response the Kaellous Clan’s plan for ask an enquiry to the wise man, many clans in vicinity had return to fulfill the call. The one who used for massager are small to medium populated clans that scattered in all over the place. In other words, they are forming an alliance between many clans to oppose the Rubel Clan who have the largest population.
2685
2686“Indeed. In the end, we cannot leave the Rubel Clan as it. The Stained Beast was gone for good, now this is our opportunity to rise. Everyone understood it very well, right?”
2687
2688In the middle of the village, every titan who had gathered in there, nod their head and giving the war-cry sound by beating their limbs after hearing the Sorcerer words. Their heart has united as one after waiting and preparing for this time.
2689
2690“Let’s go to their clan to ask an enquiry. I’m counting on you while we were away”
2691
2692To ask an enquiry to the wise man——in short, it was a conference before the war begin. Of course, the only one who will participate are the Sorcerer and the Brave as a representative, rather than not something like every clan member will participate.
2693
2694Looking at the absent minded Eru, the Brave approached Eru who still gazing up to the highly spirited titans.
2695
2696“As you can look. We will go to ask an enquiry to the wise man. What do you want to do?”
2697
2698“I will stay here with everyone, because we still have something to do”
2699
2700“Understood. I will tell it to my servant. If you need something, just ask it without reserve”
2701
2702“Yes, thank you”
2703
2704Thus, by seeing them off, the Sorcerer and the Brave went out to ask an enquiry to the wise man.
2705
2706The titans who remained in the settlement were returning to their daily lives, even after the Sorcerer and the Brave’s departure. Speaking of which, one thing had become different from before, something like unsuppressed euphoric feeling has included between them.
2707
2708“・・・・・What kind of game is this”
2709
2710In the middle of that, there is one titan who feeling deeply confused. The One-eyed Seat of Servant who looking down at the foot while flickering his huge one-eyelids. There is a small figure with no larger than his knees plus another small figure who somewhat a little bigger and wearing an armor, it seems they were busily moving around.
2711
2712The smaller one; Eru who cross his arm and leaking out a ‘Uu～’ groan from his mouth, finally raised his head to the questioned voice.
2713
2714“This is for research”
2715
2716“・・・・Umu? Do a goblin fulfill their livelihood by lining up some bones?”
2717
2718It can be said, all he had to do was picking up an abandoned demonic beast’s bones and arranging them into a human shaped. Although when he was at it, he does complain about ‘ah this won’t do’ or ‘ahh, this one neither’.
2719
2720The shell or leather from demonic beast that had been hunted by the titan will be used to make an armor, while the meat will be possessed as a food. Even though, the bone was also used to make an armor, there are too many unused parts and must be thrown away from the settlement. As for Eru and Addy, they have gathered it on purpose.
2721
2722“Eru-kun, what about this?”
2723
2724“Oh, that looks right. It seems long and sturdy too, let’s use it on the legs”
2725
2726Addy who wearing the Gear Ejector (Descent Rad) carrying a huge bone larger than her height and place it on the ground.
2727
2728The One-eyed titan couldn’t hide his confused expression even though Eru already had explained to him. Originally, his task was something like the Brave follower. For that reason, he was holding the Servant position.
2729
2730Because the Brave now went to ask an enquiry to the wise man, he was ordered to make himself useful to the goblin’s Braver. Speaking of such, this strong small goblin was able to defeat his lord who also the Brave. Although, it was not a disgrace to serve him, he couldn’t fathom their behavior at all.
2731
2732For a titan, arranging the demonic beast bone was more likely played by children. In the case when they are playing it, it would be called completed if they could reassemble it in a beast figure. But, these two goblins had gathered from the various bones and arranging them apart.
2733
2734Furthermore, it can be said too weird for a something like a titan figure.
2735
2736“Are my eyes did not enough. I couldn’t understand what are the goblin thinking at all”
2737
2738Although the One-eyed of Servant taken back weirdly, he still helps Eru with sincerity. But in reality, Eru also thought the same like him.
2739
2740“Umu. Why I do feel like something ominous will happen after arranging the demonic beast’s bone, no?”
2741
2742“So, just noticed it at this point, eh・・・・・”
2743
2744There was an atmosphere where they could be called a Necromancer due to their work. Of course, it’s not like Eru had changed to that kind of flashy job.
2745
2746“As I thought, the demonic beast’s bone and the shape was not compatible at all. The size was not always consistent, and there is no guarantee to found the right shape・・・・even if we design this, truly the bone will break, huh”
2747
2748What he always seeks is still unchanged. The humanoid weapon, Silhouette Knight. The first step of Silhouette Knight alternative manufacturing plan which arranged by demonic beast’s bones.
2749
2750“How difficult～. This bone might more fragile than I thought if we use the strengthening magic on the Inner Skeleton”
2751
2752“The output also become too wasteful, right～”
2753
2754They were known enough to process some metals. However, they never have any experience building the Silhouette Knight using the demonic beast’s bone. That’s why the preparatory studies were required to execute.
2755
2756Eru began to write a memo on the tree’s bark.
2757
2758“When it doesn’t take the shape, let’s combine it with the small bones and then attach it with strengthening magic. Even if we do that, we surely couldn’t leave the dimension tolerance. It can’t be helped if we need more some power, huh・・・・・”
2759
2760Fortunately, Ikaruga Ether Reactor; Emperor’s Heart has abundant output. From the first place, Ikaruga itself is a machine which supported by high-powered strengthening magic.
2761
2762“It will be necessary to use Emperor’s Heart. As for the placement will be supported like this, what’s left is・・・・”
2763
2764After organizing the information, the next step is the design. Leaving aside the strength factor, the procedure itself is no different from the previous Silhouette Knight design. The part between the heart were also left unscathed, so it can be useful to some extent.
2765
2766“There is a lot of efficiency loss if we use the demonic beast’s bone. But somewhat we could secure a normal Silhouette Knight”
2767
2768“If we could able to build it though～”
2769
2770Eru slowly looked around the arranged bones. It looked like a titan’s skull corpse instead. Of course, it was in the silence of the death. [6]
2771
2772“There is no point in arranging it like this. To move・・・as I expected, the problem is Crystal Tissue, right”
2773
2774“Eru-kun. Before the giant starting their war, would it be bad if we don’t collect Ikaruga and Shii-chan soon?”
2775
2776At that time, Addy suddenly clap her hand. According to the Sorcerer and the Brave, the titan will soon enter the war state. In the midst of that, it was difficult to build Silhouette Knight nonchalantly.
2777
2778“I think so too but・・・・even if we can ask the giant to carry it. We still don’t know where should we go to not get caught up in the battle”
2779
2780‘I see. Then, we can’t move without building a Silhouette Knight and in order to build the Silhouette Knight we need to carry it to the safe place. Huh? It doesn’t seem right at all?”
2781
2782There is no end of it, Addy began to tilt her head.
2783
2784“We just need to carry it somewhere. Seriously, if this could work, we can carry as much as we want”
2785
2786Whatever the material, if it can move as a humanoid weapon, Eru will happily riding it to transport. Although, it was a problem when reality is reversed by order.
2787
2788“It can’t be helped if we worry something we can’t do. As swiftly as possible, let’s look for Crystal Tissue alternatives”
2789
2790“Yes. Can’t imagine it at all”
2791
2792“Yeah, me too”
2793
2794After that, they asked “Is there any demonic beast material that can easily expanded and shrunk by magical phenomenon?” unreasonably to the One-eyes of Servant, and then his eyes changed into white and black panel.
2795
2796TL note
2797
2798[1] 幻獣 : (Mystical Beast). Don’t know what she mean. Eru already explained to her about Silhouette Knight, but she interprets it as (Shadow beast, illusionary beast) that can be manipulated
2799
2800[2] 二眼位(セクンダオキュリス): Deuce-eyed Seat (Seconda Okrys), same like before, symbolizing about how many eyes they have and as their title.
2801
2802[3] 真眼の乱: Whatever is [the truth of eye’s disturbance] or [true sight of disorder]. If you have other suggestion, I will change it next time.
2803
2804[4] 六眼位(セクストスオキュリス): Six-eyed Seat (Sexts Okrys), the highest rank of the giant can achieve, the closest being to the supreme being, algos.
2805
2806[5] 五眼位(クィントスオキュリス): Fifth-eyed Seat (Quints Okrys), same but higher rank than any other seat.
2807
2808[6]original text(当然、それは死の沈黙の中にあった。): somewhat it was like draquest catchphrase ‘there is no response it’s just a corpse’.
2809
2810You might be wondering why Addy not using silhouette gear.
2811
2812Well, basically. It was silhouette gear but mainly used in Syrphrine safety fuction, and powered with motor rad. While silhouette gear powered by magius engine (mind me if I wrong though)
2813
2814From now I will change ‘silhouette gear’ term into ‘gear ejector’ in order to match the previous translation.
2815
2816Also, I will change the ‘forest military campaign’ term to ‘bocuse expeditionary force’ for the same reason.
2817
2818If you have any suggestion or anything feel free to tell me, I will change it on edited version.
2819
2820As for the edited chapter. I’m still waiting for my editor, I’ve told him to take his time while editing my translation.
2821
2822If you know, the latter part is not included in LN. So if you have read the LN, it might be a little different.

2830
2831Chapter 95 Let’s Comfort an Enquiry to the Wise Man (Conference)
2832
2833The place where the enquiry to the wise man will be held is located at the separated and innermost of the forest, rather than being held in a clan’s village. A wide and empty space can be seen abruptly soon after passing through the thick forest which have been guided by the beast’s trail. In there, the stone were lined and the plant were also grown in an unnatural way. Although the stone were still rough, it was polished enough for a titan to sit it down and it were arranged in an encirclement for such event.
2834
2835Granted, from that old and mossy condition. It was certain this place has been used many times in the past.
2836
2837From that place, two persons from the Kaellous Clan were the fastest who comes earlier. When the enquiry to the wise man occurred, usually the ones who called the conference would be the first one that comes first.
2838
2839“・・・・Umu. For such old body to endure this”
2840
2841A four-eyed old woman immediately sitting down as soon as she has reached the conference place. No matter how much muscle the titan can have, it seems their muscle will decline after living for a long time. Yes, just exactly like this old woman.
2842
2843“I must have troubled you Brave”
2844
2845“My Sorcerer, please don’t hide your eyes. This is also my duty as a Brave”
2846
2847The Three-eyed Brave who has escorted the Sorcerer from this far, shook his head while showing his smile to her. As he said, it was normal for him to do his duties.
2848
2849After that, the Brave went through the lined stone and stand in the center of the place. In there, a blank space without any stone was left alone and replaced by piled-up ash that already changed the ground’s color.
2850
2851The Brave start to piles a firewood he brought and then he starts handling the beast which is he already hunted on his way before. He was already skilled at handling the beast by doing it every day. The beast was quickly dismantled and lined after skewering each part of them.
2852
2853The Sorcerer comes over him after resting her body and place her hand on the firewood.
2854
2855“Come (Venit)” [1]
2856
2857Along with her muttering, a swirling flame has appeared on the edge of her hand. Eventually lit up the firewood, and begins to burn up.
2858
2859“・・・・I suppose, this enquiry will become major turning point for us”
2860
2861Said the old woman while gazing at the burning flame.
2862
2863The Brave who had already faced the burning firewood nod in agreement.
2864
2865“Indeed. There is no history where the Truth of Eye’s Disorder occurred within our ancestors before”
2866
2867“I can’t return to the Hundred Eyes side while my eye still reflected that evilness”
2868
2869The old woman who was covered with wrinkles slowly gathered the strength in her eyes, as if she was looking at the future inside the flame.
2870
2871And then, while they were waiting, the titan began to assemble one after another. Although every clan who had comes here were in a small number, the number of various clans that have been gathering here were far too much to count. Also, each one of them were bringing their own baggage. Soon after that, only a few stone seat now remains.
2872
2873In the center of the place, the firewood that had been brought by everyone delivered into wavering flame. Besides of that, there is a clan who began to grill the meat other than Kaellous Clan.
2874
2875Looking at the titan who have gathered there, most of them have two pair eyes which can be said as the ‘Four-eyed Seat’. Although among that group, a small number of ‘Fifth-eyed Seat’ arrogantly mixed between them.
2876
2877On the other hand, there is no ‘Three-eyed Seat’ other than from the Kaellous Clan.
2878
2879“Hm? Have you returned to the Hundred Eyes sides yet, the elderly of Kaellous Clan?”
2880
2881One of the Fifth-eyed titan comes to Kaellous Clan seat. He was glaring at the Sorcerer while smirked with a devious mouth. Before the old woman began to open her eyes, the Brave already stood between them.
2882
2883“I will not allow any insolent mouth before our Sorcerer”
2884
2885“What did you say. Don’t dare you interrupt me for a mere three eyes!”
2886
2887The five-eyes of his were staring down intensely above the Brave. Not only he has two additional eyes, his body size also bigger than the Three-eyed Brave. Although, the Brave didn’t falter to look back at the Fifth-eyed Seat without any pressure at all.
2888
2889Because of that, the tension between them increased significantly. Eventually the titan around them slowly shut their mouth after sensing their intent. In the amidst of the quiescent, all attention was directed toward those two.
2890
2891Before the tension reach its peak, the old woman began to stand up and put her hand on the Brave shoulder. As if she wants to displace the Brave and face the Fifth-eyed Seat.
2892
2893“Fifth-eyed Seat. This is the place for enquiry to the wise man. A place where we convey our word, there is no need for such standing”
2894
2895“Hmph. I see, for such dictum really exist didn’t they”
2896
2897While he was taking breath from his nose, the Fifth-eyed Seat has lost his interest on those two. As if he was trying to walk away by pushing the Brave, he finally sat down on the nearest stone seat.
2898
2899The surrounding titan who have saw the scenery before them leaving an astonished looks on their faces.
2900
2901“Promptly, there are already many of us gathered here. Let’s us begin the enquiry to the wise man”
2902
2903Taking the advantage on the focused attention, the old woman informs them to start the enquiry. The remaining mixed voice in the surrounding also began to crumble. With a composed gait, the old woman went into the center of the place and put her hand on the top of burned flame.
2904
2905“The Hundred Eyes, please be our witness”
2906
2907Following the old woman, every titan began to murmur the same word like her. Giving prayer to their guardian god; to the God of Hundred Eyes (Algos De Plenus Okrys). [2]
2908
2909By doing that, every argument that will be conveyed from now on, would have given their deity acknowledgement. This is also one of the enquiry to the wise man’s dictum which must be followed.
2910
2911“First, I want to inform everyone about this enquiry. There’s no other thing than the Rubel Clan’s grieve mistake “
2912
2913“・・・・The enquiry, already passed long time ago. In the end, our Brave were stained!”
2914
2915Not long after that, various clans raise their own voices. Every clans who have received devastating damage from the Truth of Eye’s Disorder. Especially the Brave who have been called by the strong men, become the first victim after being defeated by the Stained Beast which under Rubel Clan control.
2916
2917“Indeed. But, the Hundred Eyes will no overlook our mistake. Our Brave finally discovered the Stained Beast corpse”
2918
2919Among the raising commotion, the Fifth-eyed began to barge his voice.
2920
2921“Was it only one? Or perhaps telling me the Third-eyed Seat able to defeat it!”
2922
2923“Nay. Our Brave was discovering only the corpse”
2924
2925“You had asked an enquiry just for that? Damn you Kaellous, you have aged too much!”
2926
2927The old woman slowly faced the Fifth-eyed who has stood up from his seat. The eyes that had been wrinkled her face, didn’t lose any strength at all.
2928
2929“The number of Stained beast’s corpse that have been discovered by our Brave, is exceeding more than ten number”
2930
2931This time, an uncontrolled astonishment spreading among the titan. Even the Fifth-eyed Seat has shocked by her word.
2932
2933“The Stained Beast・・・・”
2934
2935“Was it truly, for such thing・・・・”
2936
2937“Then, nothing to be scared!”
2938
2939“However, the Truth of Eye’s Disorder・・・・”
2940
2941The titans are grumbling each other. It seems the titan were still persisting by not opposing again Rubel Clan’s deed. And one of the reasons is, the existence of Stained Beast’s strength.
2942
2943If their presence has gone, then the prerequisite will become different too.
2944
2945“We will demand the decision for the Hundred Eyes. The Rubel Clan’s deed, was it true or false!?”
2946
2947With a silent voice, no one has raised their voice. The enquiry already has been said, then the answer must be given without any unnecessary word.
2948
2949————However, this time was not in the least.
2950
2951“Rubel Clan’s deed・・・・・was it truly a mistake?”
2952
2953Among the seated titan, there is another person who has stood up beside the old woman. Having the largest body than anyone else, the Fifth-eyed Seat broke the current flow and throwback the enquiry.
2954
2955“In the first place, the Six-eyed Seat are too few when they born. When the Six-eyed Seat appeared, we should guide it to the Hundred Eyes. But when there is none of them were born, won’t it sufficient if the Fifth-eyed Seat able to replace them!”
2956
2957“・・・・Are you sane?”
2958
2959At that time, the Sorcerer has realized. This Fifth-eyed Seat wanted to gain favor by themselves after make the Rubel Clan as an example.
2960
2961Unable to endure the scene before him, the Third-eyed Seat of Brave also began to stand up. Same like before, the Brave shout at the Fifth-eyed Seat with a glaring eye.
2962
2963“How・・・how shameless you can be. We are in the midst of the enquiry. There is a limit to say such statement in the front of the Hundred Eyes!!”
2964
2965“I’m sure the great Hundred Eyes will observe us with full of forgiveness”
2966
2967An anger slowly swells inside the Brave after hearing the Fifth-eyed Seat’s evilness intent before him. Not only staining the sacred enquiry, he even tries to changes the king selection. For the Brave, it was not something he could forgive.
2968
2969“How much・・・・how much rotten your eyes have been!!”
2970
2971“You have heard it Kaellous・・・・in the first place, are you speak the truth about the Stained Beast? Aren’t you mistaken it for something cowardice like a mere Third-eyed Seat!”
2972
2973“You even call us without shameless! What an unsightly remark! Don’t even think you will be acknowledged by the Hundred Eyes!!”
2974
2975When the Brave wanted to ask a new enquiry with outrage, in the same time a sudden roar blasting through them.
2976
2977“Sileeeence!!! ・・・・We are still in the Hundred Eye’s presence”
2978
2979A roaring voice which made everyone hold their tongue went through the place, it was not something like an old person can do. Everyone attention is focused on the Four-eyed Seat of Sorcerer. At the time when she opened her eyes, even the upper Fifth-eyed Seat like him was losing his power against her.
2980
2981“The Fifth-eyed Seat. You may watch the enquiry if you think like that. Tonight is the enquiry to the wise man”
2982
2983As the Fifth-eyed Seat shut his mouth and look around him, the piercing gaze shoot through at him from the seated titan. And because of that, he was unable to say anything back.
2984
2985“Only the Hundred Eyes who able to guide the chosen throne”
2986
2987“We will not forgive the Stained Beast who disturbed this rightfulness”
2988
2989“This is something we must see with our eyes”
2990
2991“Enquire it, let’s ask an enquiry to them”
2992
2993“Once again, to the Rubel Clan, we must enquire it”
2994
2995“We must enquire their mistaken deed at once”
2996
2997One by one their voice has risen after another.
2998
2999“The enquiry has been revealed. This time, the Hundred Eyes has also acknowledged this enquiry”
3000
3001The old woman reached out and highly lift her arm to creating a burning fire ball.
3002
3003“Our clan (Barysu Genos) [3] has once again united as one. Hundred Eyes, be our witness!!”
3004
3005Among the titan who got excited after standing up, only the Fifth-eyed Seat who has bitter expression on his face.
3006
3007“・・・・・What a fool”
3008
3009He began to walk away while leaving the dissatisfaction feeling behind. Not long after that, the one who in the same clan like him, start to follow his back.
3010
3011Only the Third-eyed Seat of Brave who intensely gazing at them and try to follow them, although he cannot leave the old woman side. At least, seeing them off was the best thing he could do.
3012
3013After leaving away from the fruitful enquiry to the wise man’s place, several titans moving through the forest in a quick pace. Between them, the titan who have the biggest body, heavily shook his head. The Fifth-eyed Seat titan who roughly stepping out in frustration.
3014
3015“Damn you Kaellous! Prying too much with the past sealed eyes!!”
3016
3017“The enquiry has been revealed. They will surely saw this as a mistake”
3018
3019For the titan, the result of enquiry to the wise man will be considered as the Hundred Eyes Deity’s will and has absolute restriction power. For starter, the clashes between Rubel Clan and united clan are certainly cannot be avoided.
3020
3021“What should we do Fifth-eyed Seat. If we leave it be, our clan will be confused・・・・”
3022
3023“We cannot leave it as it is”
3024
3025The Fifth-eyed Seat comes to halt his step. Smile with a vicious smile while thinking an devious plan.
3026
3027“・・・・Then, we can simply tell them”
3028
3029The titan beside him looked at each other.
3030
3031“To the Rubel Clan”
3032
3033After narrowing his fives eyes, the titan was looking at the edge of the forest.
3034
3035â—†
3036
3037Not long after the enquiry has been revealed, every clan were returning to their own village. From now, they will be preparing for the war and assembled once again after that.
3038
3039The titan from the Kaellous Clan were also already returned back to the village. As if the clan member were waiting for the return, and excitedly making a noise by their feet after hearing the alliance.
3040
3041The old woman informs her clan member after returning from a long trip.
3042
3043“My brethren Kaellous Clan. The time for the truth is near. Soon we will join together and once again ask an enquiry to the Rubel Clan. For now, we must prepare for that!”
3044
3045The voice of agreement was overlapping each other, and then every titan began to divide for fulfilling their roles.
3046
3047Although they were the first one who cast the enquiry, the Kaellous Clan is the most prepared clan in vicinity. Because of that, they have much time to be relaxed.
3048
3049“My Servant! I have returned! Where is the goblin・・・・!?”
3050
3051The Brave who have returned to his tent, at that place, he has found strange thing created beside him.
3052
3053“What・・・・kind of joke is this”
3054
3055Even with the braveness which only the Brave can have, he couldn’t help to feel freaked out. What placed in there was an armor made from the demonic beast which the Brave wanted to give for the goblin Braver. Although, there should be no progress before he went to enquiry, there was something like a human form which created by the bone of demonic beast. Moreover, it had already hanged on the nearby tree before he notices it.
3056
3057Because of that, it was looked like a deceased titan skeleton. Even for the Brave, this kind of bad taste make him speechless into that extend.
3058
3059The Servant who has been glared by his three eyes, shrunk from the distance, but eventually pointed at his feet as if he has something to say.
3060
3061“This is, what the goblin Braver say it was necessary for them”
3062
3063With a great interest and vigor, the Brave now asking the goblin who moving around quickly on his feet.
3064
3065“Goblin Braver. What kind of harassment is this!?”
3066
3067“Yeah, we are now securing the movable range by estimating the available space. Thanks to that, we are able to calculate the amount of muscle we need to move. Although, we still can’t secure the right amount, we will estimate it on how far we can go・・・・・”
3068
3069They should be able to converse but, their word is not connected at all. All the Brave can do is completely covered his head.
3070
3071“・・・・Hundred Eyes, please guide me!!・・・・Well, fine. More importantly”
3072
3073After giving up everything he saw, the Brave sit down heavily on the spot.
3074
3075“The enquiry has been revealed. As the Hundred Eyes had guided us, we will once again ask an enquiry to the Rubel Clan”
3076
3077“Oooh・・・・!”
3078
3079As the Servant continue to cross his arm while sit down with one knee up, his eyes now lifted by the upcoming battle before him.
3080
3081“Because of your work, we cannot thank you enough for defeating the Stained Beast for us, goblin Braver. Originally, it was something we must to face but・・・・”
3082
3083“Don’t worry about it. But from now on, you will go to fight, right?”
3084
3085While sitting there, Eru give a wry smile. Just like the Brave said before leaving for the enquiry, he nods in agreement.
3086
3087“That’s right. We will face the Rubel Clan to ask an enquiry. But we still have time for a while. I will gladly lend my strength anytime when you need it・・・if it was not something like this harassment”
3088
3089The Brave trying to keep his sight on the fake skeleton corpse beside.
3090
3091Eru who start thinking after crossed his arm, leaking a ‘mm-hmm’ noise on his mouth. There is something he must do in this short time, and that answer is most certainly.
3092
3093“Then, before you going out to fight, there is one thing I would like to borrow everyone strength”
3094
3095“Fumu. What is it?”
3096
3097As he stood up and began point his finger to the west where their hometown located.
3098
3099“I want to recollect my treasured・・・・my Silhouette Knight which had been destroyed after fighting Stained Beast and fall in that area. However, because it was too heavy for us to, we need a great strength to bring it here”
3100
3101“Fine, it will be easy. I am with my Servant will lend our strength to you”
3102
3103For a titan who have a tremendous power, carrying a luggage was too easy for them.
3104
3105“We might need some round trips though. The place is around the Stained Beast’s carcass”
3106
3107“I see. Then, we already know that place. Fumu, well then Servant, bring the basket”
3108
3109“Understood”
3110
3111By the Brave order, the One-eyed Servant brought a huge bag which had been made with a strong vine.
3112
3113“Are you sure? Didn’t you have another important matter to attend on this time, right?”
3114
3115“We still have a time to spend, reminding we still need to prepare. Besides, this is our thanks to you, goblin Braver. No need to reserve”
3116
3117The Brave proudly hit his chest. Under such circumstances, Eru and Addy who brought along with the Brave and his Servant went left to recover the Silhouette Knight’s wreckage and a place where the Stained Beast’s carcass located.
3118
3119
3120
3121Bocuse Sea of Trees.
3122
3123There are many powerful demonic beasts who lived in this land, both from the ground and either on the air. There is no other way to survive except having a power like a titan or using a weapon like Silhouette Knight.
3124
3125In that such forest, there is a huge shadow who was flying and ruling from the sky. It was something shaped like a bug with a shining rainbow wings around it, and also leaking a buzzling sound to its surrounding.
3126
3127The giant bird, monster bird, and any other demonic beast who live in the sky, would rather run away after sighting that figure. It can be said that such being is on the topmost demonic beast. Among of them, there is a thin and reddish tint that rising a loud cry. And then, with an inorganic, and emotionless eyes; ‘they’ are turn to one direction, lowering the altitude, and landing to the ground.
3128
3129Their destination is a small opened village in the forest. With many eyes opened in astonishment, the death incarnation of spreading stain has been descended.
3130
3131The first one who notice the oddity is the Third-eyed Seat of Brave.
3132
3133“・・・・Did something happen?”
3134
3135In the group who was moving through the forest, the Brave suddenly stop his step and began to look around. It seems his sense of being trained warrior was able to notice something. Was it something like a sound or tremor, even the Brave himself doesn’t know either. But he certainly feels something.
3136
3137“Look everyone, what is that?”
3138
3139In the group who have stopped their advance, Eru was pointing at the sky after he trying to turn around his body. The group who looked at it, obviously notice something has happened in there.
3140
3141Several lines of black smoke flowing from the ground, and a shadow-like figure who flying on the sky. Moreover, the surrounding area was already covered in a fog.
3142
3143The Brave recognized it the moment he saw the scenery before him. He knew the existence who could do that. Therefore, the Brave shout a loud cry and opened his eyes.
3144
3145“The Stained・・・・Beast!! No way! Why they are here・・・・!”
3146
3147“Brave! Don’t tell me that direction, our・・・・clan’s village!!”
3148
3149The Servan screamed with a trembled voice. Right now, that direction is where they had come and also the direction of the Stained Beast and the smoke. And the place lies before it is none other than anything they could thought.
3150
3151Not even thinking about it, the Brave running straight to that direction. Soon after that, the Servant was also following him on the back.
3152
3153“Addy, we will follow them!”
3154
3155“Yeah!”
3156
3157In pursuit of the titan who rushing at the maximum speed, Eru and Addy were also start to follow them.
3158
3159The closer they have come back, the better they could see the sky above the village. The sky has changed into ashen clouds mixed with the strong acid poison which had been released by the Stained Beast. They weren’t sure what kind of state happened bellow it. Even thinking optimistically couldn’t help them from imagining it.
3160
3161At that time, the Brave who running on the front suddenly reduced his speed. They got someone else presence coming from the front. From this situation, they cannot think other than their allies at all.
3162
3163As the Brave stood up and pull out a rod without hesitation. The Servant was also stand beside him, and preparing to engage the person who come to them.
3164
3165“Please wait, Brave! That is your・・・・”
3166
3167Eru who was watching above the trees, giving him a warning. The Brave and his companion who still hasn’t jumped at the front, waiting for a slight movement.
3168
3169“Aah, Brave・・・・”
3170
3171What appeared before them were the titans from the Kaellous Clan.
3172
3173“You fellow, so you’re safe! What’s happening in the village・・・・”
3174
3175Although the Brave began to regaining his calmness after sighting a familiar eye, he soon returned to that state again when considering the number of the titan who lives in the village were obviously less than appeared before them. Besides, many of them were wounded and even some of their body has swollen after taking the strong acid.
3176
3177“What happened・・・・where is the rest!?”
3178
3179The Brave pulling out the unscathed titan unintentionally.
3180
3181The titan who still full by themselves began to firmly look back at the Brave.
3182
3183“Without noticing, they come from the sky. When we realized it, we are already too late and everything covered in stain・・・・we cannot even attack them, running from them was all we can do”
3184
3185The Brave expression has changed like a something crushed. Eventually, he realizes that there was no old woman figure on that place.
3186
3187“W, where is the Sorcerer・・・・!?”
3188
3189“・・・・To let everyone escape, the Sorcerer use her magic・・・・to fight the Stained Beast alone! But I’m afraid the Sorcerer was already retuning to the Hundred Eyes side・・・・”
3190
3191As soon as he heard the answer, the Brave had sunk to his knees. Then he whammed his fist against the ground.
3192
3193“・・・・・・・・・・・・I will not forgive this・・・!!!!”
3194
3195The Brave who had raised his face with a bloody eye, trying to run through while leaving a loud cry. Eru jumped in the front of his eyes after seeing the Brave who was going to lose himself.
3196
3197“Brave! You must not go!!”
3198
3199“Goblin! Don’t stop me! This is our・・・!”
3200
3201The Brave right now was no different from a beast. Although he was emitting a massive killing intent on the head-on, Eru didn’t even hesitate to oppose him.
3202
3203“If you go, then who will protect your wounded clan member after leaving them here!?”
3204
3205The Brave took one step ahead, and endure it. Gritting his teeth until a bubble start to leak from the edge of his mouth. Even now the anger that emitting flame has turned into shimmer, and shakes the Brave surrounding.
3206
3207Eru slowly reached a word to the Brave who had changed into a beast.
3208
3209“And from their information, the village was already・・・covered in stains”
3210
3211“I already know about that! I am! ・・・・I am a Brave!! If I don’t stand right now, then when will I must stand for the future!!”
3212
3213The one who stand to stop the Brave is his companion words.
3214
3215“Brave・・・just like the goblin said. The village are already・・・・our companion, many of them couldn’t escape and become stained・・・・”
3216
3217The Brave who had trembled while gripping hard his fist, suddenly hit the ground using his head.
3218
3219“Damned Stained Beast! Damned Rubel Clan! Such a deed! For them to show this to the Hundred Eyes・・・・!! I will not forgive・・・・・I will never forgive this・・・・!!”
3220
3221One of the titans went forward to the Brave who was grieving in the sadness. There is a young female titan who held on its arm.
3222
3223The Brave slowly raised his face and faced the girl’s four eyes. A young eye, who lived with fear and stain; engulfed with an anger, even so giving the light of a strong will inside it.
3224
3225“Brave, I have a word from the Sorcerer・・・・I must apologies for returning to the Hundred Eyes side ahead. You must correct this mistake, Brave. For that reason, you must train as for the one who will succeed my eyes・・・in the end, we will hide our embarrassment and we must escape to live!!”
3226
3227Afterwards, the Brave has leaked a roaring voice that doesn’t even to be in this world. As for real intention, he wanted to leave it to his anger and find a way to avenge her. But now, as the strongest warrior in the village, and as the protector of the Sorcerer. It doesn’t change if the Sorcerer was still young and immature.
3228
3229The Brave who had been shaking for a while eventually placed his arm and kneeled before her while keeping open only one eye on his forehead to face the girl.
3230
3231“My new Sorcerer, I will swear it here. I will protect you from any disaster until you have succeeded your predecessor・・・・and I will surely to correct the Rubel Clan deeds, and have them to be judged by the Hundred Eyes”
3232
3233“Brave, there are not many who inherited this eye from our predecessors. But I will surely overcome this trial. Until then, I’m in your protection・・・・”
3234
3235Although the titan still considered as a child, she was still big for a titan. And she was rather successfully replying to his words, even though she seemed had been tensed in the front of trembled Brave.
3236
3237One after another the surviving Kaellous Clan member, imitating the Brave by kneeled before her while closing their eyes.
3238
3239While the Clan’s life pulse hasn’t been run out after falling from the misery, the remained clan member was united and resumed their walk.
3240
3241“・・・・I’m glad, it seems has already settled then. Brave also stopped rushing in too”
3242
3243Eru and Addy were watching the titan condition above the tree. They couldn’t intervene their clan problem. They just lend them their power a little.
3244
3245Suddenly, Addy who hasn’t got any reply from Eru; look at his direction. His sight is far away from them, to the direction of Kaellous Clan’s village which still covered in a white fog.
3246
3247“・・・・・What happened? Eru-kun?”
3248
3249“Nee, Addy. The Stained Beast attacking the village meaning”
3250
3251At that time, Addy has remembered something. In that village, together with Eru, she does know what he means by that——―———
3252
3253“What do you think about the demonic beast material we had build and still in research?”
3254
3255“・・・・・Uwaa”
3256
3257Without knowing she took a step back. Because she now has seen. The smiling Eru. A smile with full of anger that will incites the whole world.
3258
3259“Fufufu・・・・for a mere bug stand against me again in the second time”
3260
3261From the top of the branch, Eru looks at the remaining Kaellous Clan including the Brave.
3262
3263“It seems, we have a same interest with them”
3264
3265Eru and Addy were working for their own purpose. It would be the best if the just could escape the forest and return to the kingdom. Although it was coincidental, his Silhouette Knight had already destroyed twice, there is no way he will leave it as it is.
3266
3267“At first, I didn’t intent to get involved between the giant’s conflict・・・・but, it seems I must have Rubel Clan-or-whatever is pay for it. The cost of destroying my Silhouette Knight is expensive you know・・・・!”
3268
3269At this time, one of the titan’s clan; the Rubel Clan has completely make an enemy of the world most problematic Knight Comander; Ernesti Echavalier from the Silver Phoenix Knight.

3326Chapter 96 Reunion
3327
3328A silent shock had run through the demonic forest.
3329
3330“What did you say, the Kaellous Clan were already・・・・!?”
3331
3332“Curse you Rubel Clan. They still have that many Stained Beast”
3333
3334“Just same as Eye of Truth’s Disturbance. If we leave it as it is, I wonder if we can win・・・”
3335
3336The destruction of Kaellous Clan and the release of Stained Beast’s attack by the Rubel Clan within the settlement soon become known to the other clans. The united clan which had been formed to oppose the Rubel Clan now completely stopped their advance.
3337
3338At the same time, an important implication can be noticed by that assault. In other words, another attack could have happened again if a new clan become the center of all the unified clans. It can also a frightening thing even for a hot-blooded being like a titan, and the opportunity to oppose has been rapidly deceased.
3339
3340â—†
3341
3342While the united clans were drowning in dejected swamps, the Kaellous Clan’s survivors have lurked around the corner of the forest. All of them are wearing a dark expression. In fact, their opponent was the Stained Beast which can found them while flying in the sky. And for that reason, they have to hide in the deep woods of the forest. The deeper they would go, the harder they can move. And because of their small number, they were able to survive even without hunting at all. With that such delicate life continues along the way, they were sharing the remaining hunted prey carefully to everyone.
3343
3344“・・・・・If this life going on, I have no intention become a part of the trees”
3345
3346The Third-eyed Seat of Brave has been decided to discuss on what to do for the future. While the Fourth-eyed young girl looks up at him with anxious face.
3347
3348“I will certainly repay this kind of deed to the Rubel Clan. The Sorcerer・・・・everyone’s vengeance, I will avenge for them”
3349
3350While sitting in a circle, the titans nods in agreement quietly. Any one of them have the same feeling about the vengeance.
3351
3352“However, we do not have enough strength to fight them. Our clan were also・・・・・small in comparison”
3353
3354“What about the unified clan, Brave? The enquiry has been revealed, then they must have already starting to move・・・・”
3355
3356The Brave has begun narrowing his eyes and shook his head in disagreement.
3357
3358“Remember on what happened to our clan who have been attacked by the Stained Beast. With that fact alone, we could expect on what their move eventually”
3359
3360The titans let out a groan in frustration.
3361
3362After seeing the destruction of Kaellous Clan and the remaining Stained Beast, there would be a few of them who still wanted to move. And without their strength, they can’t oppose the largest Rubel Clan if they not stand up together.
3363
3364“That strength is no longer visible. The Stained Beast, and Rubel Clan. We must have defeated these two in the same time”
3365
3366“Are we really able to do that? Please show us the way, the Hundred Eyes・・・・”
3367
3368When the surrounding titan looking down in bewilderment, the young Sorcerer was looking around with an uneasy look. Leaving aside their enthusiasm, it was something very difficult to achieve. The more they think about it, the more they know about their difference in overwhelming power the opponent have. But despite of that, the Brave’s still standing up by himself.
3369
3370“I am also confused on what to do. Our enemy is certainly too big. But I can’t leave it as it is. How can I face the Sorcerer who have returned to the Hundred Eye’s side?”
3371
3372The Brave himself was aware he is just pretending to become strong. But as the strongest warrior and the guardian of the clan in the same time, as well as the young Sorcerer who still in training; he still needs the purpose for the Kaellous Clan to walk forward from their former path. Even it was difficult to walk, he was aware to rise by himself before anyone else.
3373
3374Thus, at the place where the grave atmosphere has begun to appear, a bell-like sound can be heard.
3375
3376“I see, I have fully understood about the situation now. This is certainly difficult”
3377
3378The surrounding titans began to concentrates their gaze on the young Sorcerer. Without further ado, the young titan girl shook her head in swiftly. It was not something she would say; the source of that sound is come from Ernesti who have sit down next to her. The Brave suddenly softened his expression.
3379
3380“I’m sorry the goblin Braver・・・・for you to have caught on our conflict”
3381
3382“Please don’t worry about me. I was also recognised as one of the Kaellous Clan members, didn’t I? Then, I will lend you some of my power to help too”
3383
3384“Did you perhaps have a plan?”
3385
3386In the direction of doubtful Brave, Eru has put his hand sharply and show his two fingers to the Brave. Although his two fingers were too small for a titan, nobody knows what he does at that time.
3387
3388“Yes. First of thing, we still have two option. To make more allies, or only us who take a move”
3389
3390“As I said earlier. The united clan would not rather to act carelessly. And I am fully aware we cannot fight the Rubel Clan by ourselves”
3391
3392If we could at least do something to have them act
3393
3394That kind of thought, run through his mind while grinning his teeth.
3395
3396The Brave still confused even if he was able to unite with them again, how many of them will face the ruin after their respond to his call. However, this goblin Braver has a different idea than he would think.
3397
3398“I’m agree. Then for a starter, lets go near their place for a while?”
3399
3400“Near them? Where we should go in vicinity?”
3401
3402Eru responded with a bright smile to the suspicious looks of the Brave.
3403
3404“Yes. The settlement where the Rubel Clan lives. Of course, they have it, aren’t they?”
3405
3406“Wha・・・・・are you saying we should go to capital of the Hundred!?”
3407
3408Not only the Brave, but the surrounding titan also switch their gaze to Eru direction. No one have been thinking about going to enemy base with their small number of clan member with this kind of situation.
3409
3410In the other hand, Eru had smiled in agreement.
3411
3412“Fumu, so it was called capital of the Hundred? Either way, that Stained Beast will come to hunt the remaining Kaellous Clan, right? Then, this forest must be targeted by them. No one will notice if we went to their own foothold, right? The answer is there was no safe place other than near capital of the Hundred”
3413
3414The titan in Kaellous Clan confusedly look at each other face. None of them could reply Eru statement and neither of them have been thinking about it. At that time, the Brave has sat down in a heavy thud.
3415
3416“As you said, it was not easy at all. We can’t sneak in to their foothold with our own”
3417
3418“We will be easily noticed if we come with a large number. That’s why with our small number can do it”
3419
3420The Brave has crossed his arm and stares at Eru. Unlike the young titan girl beside him and the Brave who still can fight them on his own, Eru has a different perspective which any other titan can think. Was it the differences of their races or due to their experience, no one could fathom it.
3421
3422“・・・・even if we go to capital of the Hundred, what should we do after that. We cannot enquiry to them by ourselves”
3423
3424“Indeed, let’s find more about them. We must find out why the Stained Beast suddenly reigning in Rubel Clan’s control first”
3425
3426“That’s・・・・・・umu. Certainly, we don’t know”
3427
3428For the Brave, it was not something he could wondered ever since the Eye of Truth’s Disturbance. And with the time flies, there was only few selected titans who still questioning about it and the topic was rather become common for them.
3429
3430“I’m sure there is a trick behind it. If we can reveal it, we might can・・・”
3431
3432“Are you saying, we could deal with the Stained Beast?”
3433
3434“At least, we could return them to become all of the giant’s enemies. It would be better if we have less enemy after all”
3435
3436The Brave once again cross his arms. In the past, Stained Beast is known as every titan nemesis. That’s why the Brave duties was solely to defeat them. But the situation where they had under control with a certain clan is rather strange.
3437
3438“Even if we can’t separate them with the Stained Beast. At any rate, there are many things we could find out about them”
3439
3440While thinking out another idea, Eru began to add one more finger to count.
3441
3442“Certainly, the Rubel Clan have many clan members. But then, was it they have same will? Among of them, there might be someone who still think the rightfulness of the Hundred Eyes. It’s not like every clan member was our enemy at all, right? Then we need to divide them into two. If we have the difference between our number, we don’t need to attack them on the front. I suppose, I could say to confuse them by separating themselves into two faction and then defeat them afterwards・・・・or, at least we could let them to defeat each other”
3443
3444With a freshly looks and a big smile in full of motivation, he told them about their future.
3445
3446“Eru-kun, I thought you are not seriously fighting them・・・・”
3447
3448Meanwhile, Addy was slightly taken aback in a distance, and secretly retreats into the young titan girl’s shoulder.
3449
3450Until now the Rubel Clan doesn’t know about the fierce disaster who have turn its fang into their throat. For Eru, destroying his Silhouette Knight twice (including the latter build) was unforgiveable act.
3451
3452“There’s no such・・・・thing for the clan to be divided”
3453
3454“It would be helpful for us if they wanted to fight by themselves”
3455
3456“I’m not sure if we can do that. Definitely, we have to deal with the Stained Beast after all・・・・”
3457
3458The surrounding titan look at each other face. Certainly, Eru suggestion was not usually known as a way of fighting by their culture alone. For them, they will move when the clan have decided something. Especially for a small clan like the Kaellous Clan. That reason has allowed themselves to not able believing the idea to divide the member of same clan. Of course, Eru didn’t really care about their circumstances.
3459
3460The Brave looked at his surrounding and once again turned to the small Brave direction. In the Brave chest was filled with sign of lostness. Eru has given them a few means to fight, and with that suggestion will certainly bring hope to the Kaellous Clan. But in the same time, it also said that kind of reasoning has given birth to a great source of resistance. In short.
3461
3462“・・・・・・I wonder if that kind of fighting will be recognized by the Hundred Eyes”
3463
3464The three eyes of the Brave have been bitterly bending over it. In their battle, they had always coming from the front when the enquiry to the wise man started. That’s why, they could get the right answer by defeating their opponent with that way. It can be said Eru suggestion are kind of hectic for them.
3465
3466“Then, are you saying that the Hundred Eyes has been wishing for the Kaellous Clan’s ruin? Did the enquiry already have reached its answer?”
3467
3468After the Brave has been questioned again and again, the latter word finally stuck on his mind. For the titan, enquiry to the wise man have the same meaning to the Hundred Eye’s will. And it was unforgivable for them to drop the answer which have been raised at once. Furthermore, in this situation they couldn’t allow it at all.
3469
3470At that time, a small but clear voice can heard through the Brave.
3471
3472“Brave. I will accept the goblin’s proposal”
3473
3474“Young (Pallva), Sorcerer (Marga)”
3475
3476Surprisingly, the source of the voice was the young titan girl who had inherited the Sorcerer name. Among the surrounding titan, the small and young girl confirming the word by nodding her head.
3477
3478“Without the Stained Beast, surely the enquiry among us will be revealed. And if this was the only conclusion we can have, I’m sure the Hundred Eyes will recognize our deeds”
3479
3480The Brave has opened his eyes widely. They are agreed; the reason of their animosity to the Rubel Clan’s deed since the Eye of the Truth’s Disturbance had occurred. And the answer is rather simple, because it was not something they could answer by themselves after all.
3481
3482“Someday, there will be the right time to enquiry. And for that time, we must prepare in advance”
3483
3484“That’s right Brave. We will surely correct this mistake. For that reason, we must separate them”
3485
3486The Brave look at the Ernesti’s face and turned his eyes to the young Sorcerer. Despite they are in a such difficult situation, all of them filled with the strong will. There’s none of them who had scared in opposing the largest clan and the Stained Beast.
3487
3488“It seems my eyes hasn’t fully opened yet・・・・”
3489
3490The Brave has been leaked out a bitter smile unintentionally. It seems even the strongest warrior in the clan was also weakened after his defeat. That’s another reason to not let him shown his current condition to the Hundred Eyes.
3491
3492The Brave couldn’t help but had been inspired after seeing this kind of courage. He is no other than a titan; the Brave of the prideful warrior.
3493
3494“When fighting with a huge beast, we must fight it little by little. And same applies for the larger clan. Even though all of it are out from the Hundred Eye’s sight, we can only fight based on what we have seen”
3495
3496The Brave stood up once again. In his sight, there is no lostness and weakness remaining.
3497
3498“The Rubel Clan and also the Stained Beast have given us so much disdain. From now on, it’s our turn to crush their eyes!”
3499
3500The surrounding titan began to consent at once. Unlike before, they had raised their arm and roaring a loud anger after a while. The young Sorcerer also showing her smile after standing up with Addy who had been riding on her shoulder.
3501
3502“Well then, I will think a way to defeat the Stained Beast when the first encounter I have meet them”
3503
3504“Are you still wanting to challenge that goblin?”
3505
3506“For me, it was something I must have to eradicate”
3507
3508Even if they could separate the Rubel Clan and the Stained Beast, there is no change they still become his enemy. And someday they surely will clash with them again. The Brave also grasped his fist and headed to the Eru direction.
3509
3510“I will give you my strength goblin Braver. We now have nothing to be afraid anymore. But certainly, there will be more difficulties when fighting them. From now on, we might need your power to archive that”
3511
3512“Please leave it to me. I may look like this but, I’m actually a knight commander after all”
3513
3514His reason was something they cannot fathom at all but, they are known he was full of confidence.
3515
3516Thus, the Kaellous Clan has started to fight back. The first thing, they must go to the deep in the forest where capital of the Hundred located. Without letting the Stained Beast notice their presence, they already had procced with a steady progress.
3517
3518â—†
3519
3520“・・・・・There is no taste in the meat”
3521
3522Within their way to the capital. Adeltrud-san is engulfed in a bad mood.
3523
3524“Since we leave everything in the Kaellous village, together with the settlement our belonging were lost right? Even the blanket, medicine, and also rations・・・・・”
3525
3526“Furthermore, aren’t our seasoning has been decreased lately! I won’t forgive that bug at all!”
3527
3528At that time, Addy and Eru who were about to go out while carrying some remaining supplies using the Ejection Gear. However, it was still at minimum. Little by little, their taste in food had faded considerably over a long journey.
3529
3530“Even if we gather it in the forest, it seems walking through for another way was rather difficult. At least we can’t relax if we don’t find some place as our base soon”
3531
3532“Well, they’re still chasing us, right～. Isn’t difficult for now?”
3533
3534The titan was fine if they’ve just had to burn the meat. But for those two, it was really serious problem. The most irritated was rather the person in charge of Eru meal and cooking—— Addy.
3535
3536“Haaa. I wonder if we can find some settlement which okay to steal from them”
3537
3538“Eru-kun has become merciless・・・・if we don’t make the Silhouette Knight as soon as possible, it might be dangerous”
3539
3540Addy took her distance from Eru who is rather seriously disappointed in their situation. Apparently, by losing the Silhouette Knight, he seems had become wilder.
3541
3542Within that conversation the young Sorcerer who slowly walk from their back, listen with a full of curiosity.
3543
3544Before long, they have arrived in an open spaced place within the woods. This trails where several titans can walk together side by side was still continued on. Many beings like a beast or titan had used this trail many years until this extent.
3545
3546The Brave has pointed his finger onward.
3547
3548“If we’re aiming for the capital, this way is the fastest one”
3549
3550“But its not like we come to their front door. right?”
3551
3552There are only a few trails in the forest. And it can be said the one who have been utilizing that wasn’t only themselves. In exchange for the speed, the danger comforting them is rather not a small chance.
3553
3554“You are the one who suggesting to sneak into their foothold. They were also doesn’t think we are heading to their place. Then, there is no other choice than choosing the speed”
3555
3556“I see, you’re right. Then we will go using this path・・・・”
3557
3558At that time, Eru was looking back after their conversation.
3559
3560“・・・・What is that?”
3561
3562Eru has noticed someone who was approaching from the west side of the trail. A humanoid shaped existence, they are a titan and a group who have brought a cart.
3563
3564The titan who also noticed Eru situation, turn their back and together they realizing at each other presence.
3565
3566“Rubel・・・・Clan!! Why you are in a such place!?”
3567
3568“Oh my・・・・Kaellous! I see you hasn’t dead yet!!”
3569
3570By the Brave cry. The young Sorcerer began to strengthen herself and hides behind the Brave. While Eru and Addy stared blankly at the new appeared titans.
3571
3572Just like the Brave says, it was the Rubel Clan’s members. They are certainly different from the Kaellous Clan. However, it doesn’t mean they have a different shape from a normal titan. The most intriguing part is the attire which can be said their armor was different from the other parts.
3573
3574Their armor was not only decorated with demonic beast material, but there’re also used some kind of ‘metal’ works on it. Clearly, that shape is created by the human hand and not something they can found in the forest.
3575
3576“So, that is the Rubel Clan. Is that an iron・・・・!? No, more importantly”
3577
3578“They are pushing a cart・・・・・huh, Eru-kun!! Is that!?”
3579
3580Realizing the presence of Kaellous Clan, the Rubel Clan also somehow found themselves in a loud noise. But instead of them, Eru and Addy were interested in the cart they brought.
3581
3582A cart who had been dragged by a huge Duel Class four-legged demonic beast. It seems the Rubel Clan’s members were in the middle of carrying something.
3583
3584“Isn’t that the Stained Beast! I see, they even have no intention on giving up the carcass!!”
3585
3586As the Brave said, the Rubel Clan had been carried the Stained Beast’s carcass with the cart they brought which is the time when Eru and Ikaruga were defeated.
3587
3588Between the titan who starting to bark at each other, Eru line of sight was being drawn far on the back. Following the Stained Beast’s cart, there is another cart beside the carcass. The flatform was tied up on it and it was something he knows too well.
3589
3590“You lot, don’t tell me that is”
3591
3592It was a lump of metal that had been melted and dissolved by a strong acid and something like a huge lump of steel with a tube entwined like an offal. On the other side, there is a slight crystal-like radiance on the remaining part. Looking at the damaging part, something was clearly attached in the past, and there was an empty hole in some spot. Furthermore, in the center of the space, there is a path that likely to be accessible to human.
3593
3594Before he knows it, Eru began to walk out.
3595
3596The Wire Anchor which have been carried on his hips, relaying his mana and begins to release the air flow violently. He also grabs his Gun Staff ‘Wincester’ in both hands.
3597
3598“・・・・My Ikaruga!!”
3599
3600The wreckage of Ikaruga; the Silver Phoenix Knight flag unit, and also Ernesti Echavalier beloved machine. There is no way for him to be unable to notice his own machine. No, that’s wrong, no matter how many times he will reborn, the answer would be same.
3601
3602“Hey wait! Even my Shii-chan too!!”
3603
3604Moreover, it was not only Ikaruga in there. Next further than Ikaruga, there is a Syrphirne’s wreckage which also Addy’s treasured machine. Although, it was easier to knows because of the entire shape is still remains.
3605
3606“Mu, what happened goblin!?”
3607
3608The Brave who has noticed the odd atmosphere between Eru and Addy, wondering about what happened to them after glaring each other with the Rubel Clan’s member.
3609
3610“Brave, we will take them down now. I will not let anyone of them run away”
3611
3612“By all means, I have nothing to argue with that. But, did you know what they took?”
3613
3614The Brave asked with dubious looks on Eru which had more intense than fighting him in the first time.
3615
3616“They are trying to steal our treasure. I will not give it to them, you damned barbaric beings, I’ll kill them all・・・・!”
3617
3618“Wait, goblin! Oh well, they’re our enemy in the first place. Let’s go!!”
3619
3620After shook off the restraining, the Brave issued a command to his servant for following Eru who had flown and leaving behind a cloud of dust.
3621
3622“What a fool. I’m grateful for the time and trouble to meet you guys in this place. Just go to the Hundred Eye’s side without resist!!”
3623
3624The Rubel Clan’s member were also having a weapon and planning to attack. The clash between the Rubel Clan who had to protect the cart and the Kaellous Clan’s violent attack couldn’t avoided anymore.
3625
3626Among of them, a silver glow ran through of those movement. The Aero Thruster which sound like a jet, traveling in the air exactly as an arrow.
3627
3628A foreign object was sighted to the Rubel Clan who was cautiously looking on the Kaellous Clan’s movement. Without a time to defend itself, a sparkling barrage of bullets pierce through the one-eyed titan. Afterwards, a small explosion occurred on its face.
3629
3630“Guh!! Gaaaggyaa!!!!”
3631
3632Seeing the one-eyed titan suddenly screamed with its face being held down, the Rubel Clan’s member start to shift their attention. With that chance, the silver light is flying in the sky and heading for his next prey. Beside it, a Wire Anchor fired around the titan’s neck.
3633
3634
3635
3636“What is this!?”
3637
3638The titan who starting to feels uneasy trying to stretches its arm but, it was already too late. The arrow-head-like part of the Wire Anchor has begun to show the magical phenomenon. The ‘Sonic Blade’ run through the neck while generating the vacuum-like blade with a strong cutting ability.
3639
3640At the same time, the Wire Anchor is returned to Eru direction. Afterwards, he jumped back on the titan’s shoulder and then with a heavy thud falling on the ground, a blood splatted on its neck.
3641
3642“What is this!? Kaellous! What did you do!?”
3643
3644“There’s something here!? What’s happened!”
3645
3646In a short time, the Rubel Clan’s member fall into confusion. Without knowing one after another have been killed and injured. Moreover, they couldn’t know what is the reason. They couldn’t even catch the small and fast moving Eru’s movement.
3647
3648In a midst of that, the Kaellous Clan’s member danced enthusiastically. They are the one who have killed the member of their clan. With that reason, they have swung down the wooden rod and knocked down the Rubel Clan without mercy.
3649
3650“For a someone like your eyes are worthless after returning to the Hundred Eye’s side!! Let’s smash them here!!”
3651
3652“Silence, don’t get too cocky!!”
3653
3654The Rubel Clan who was a late starter, receiving their blows in the armor. The Rubel Clan’s armor that had been made from iron and demonic beast material, is extremely strong. The clubs blow was reflecting back and they start to taking stance back.
3655
3656“If you have followed our King obediently, we don’t even need to use the Stained Beast! All of these was your fault in the be・・・・”
3657
3658The Rubel Clan’s member was holding a huge iron axe and swing it back to the Kaellous Clan. But something went down above the pointed-out axe. There is a something like small silver radiance which has raised a doubt within the titan’s mind.
3659
3660“Wha? Goblin? What are・・・・gu. Ggyaa!?”
3661
3662Before he could finish the word, the hand that could hold the axe are already cut off in the middle. The Wire Anchor which flies freely in the sky, comes through the gap of the armor.
3663
3664“For a mere goblin inflicting us!? Guhh!!”
3665
3666The titan who was trying to help, took a peek and hold its face. The blade swayed and cut the eyes. Not only Eru but Addy with a sword in the both hands also joint the battle on that place.
3667
3668“As expected for the Brave who I have been acknowledged! Everyone, my brother! This is the proof which had been approved by the Hundred Eyes!!”
3669
3670The Kaellous Clan’s member raises its roar and their spirits. Although, the Rubel clan have an advantage in equipment, each other clans have the same number.
3671
3672However, by flying and swing down the blade, Eru and Addy presence are the one who deciding the victory.
3673
3674“Do not touch my Ikaruga!”
3675
3676The titans have cuts in the necks, split their arms and smashed their eyes. Eru mercilessly hunt down anyone who want to take his beloved machine without his consent.
3677
3678It didn’t take that much time until the Rubel Clan’s number were reduced and falls down. No matter how strong their armor is, it’s not like they are invincible at all. After the attack they received from the Kaellous Clan, they finally fell one after another.
3679
3680Soon after that, there is only the Kaellous Clan remaining. Among of them, after raising the victory cry, Eru was jumping on the cart without a glance. As if he was trying to lick them in each corner.
3681
3682The Brave and the young Sorcerer looked at that spectacle with confused looks in their face.
3683
3684“Is that your treasure. Seems like important to you・・・・?”
3685
3686The Brave leak out a groan after glancing the titan’s corpse who had lost its head. Surely, if he made one mistake back then, could be he will become like that too. Even though they have won the battle, he could not say anything after the cold sweat run through his body.
3687
3688“Yes. This is also the one we wanted to take along back then”
3689
3690“Oh, right. I see, you said it was near the Stained Beast wasn’t it?”
3691
3692When talking about that, somehow the satisfied looks has been returned from Eru faces.
3693
3694“This is an embodiment of the most I love in this world. Although it was a bit broken for now”
3695
3696“I don’t know but, can you fix it?”
3697
3698“That’s also one of our targets to find a way to fix it”
3699
3700The demonic beast who had pulling the carts are somehow still staying there without worrying anything. The Kaellous Clan’s member were trying to put a bridle on them and pull it away.
3701
3702“Fumu, alright. This is also one of the Hundred Eye’s guides. Let’s aim to the capital of the Hundred with that spirits”
3703
3704The surrounding titan began to nods in agreement. At that time, Eru was looking at the Rubel Clan’s corpse in vicinity.
3705
3706“About that・・・・・・・・do you know a trick to fool an enemy, Brave-san?”
3707
3708“Mm? I don’t know. The enquiry must always be straight forward. Otherwise, there is no way the Hundred Eyes will acknowledge us”
3709
3710Although it was a sudden question, the Brave answer it without deception.
3711
3712“I see. Then how about this. Let’s wear these equipment and sneak into their settlement”
3713
3714“What!? Are you saying to wear the loser armor!!”
3715
3716As expected, the Brave was angry. If it was a demonic beast, without a doubt he would using it but, these are originally coming from Rubel Clan and the ones who had lost to them. It seems in the titan culture, it was hard to allow themselves to wear that.
3717
3718“No. This is just our spoils of war. And by any chance the spoils of war are coming from the Rubel Clan, please think it you had just deceived by it”
3719
3720“There no such joke! There’s no way the Hundred Eyes will accept it!!”
3721
3722On the other hand, Eru doesn’t lose his smile.
3723
3724“The other party is not the Hundred Eyes but the Rubel Clan. They didn’t have enough eyes to take the reign, right? If none of them notice it, we might able to get some important secret”
3725
3726“・・・・But that is!”
3727
3728“You must have look for the truth with that eye. That’s why we must think it carefully to get close to them. However, didn’t you say we have difficulties when facing them? You might able to win if you able to endure it for a moment”
3729
3730“・・・・・b, but・・・・”
3731
3732“With our small number, the options to do that is limited. Wouldn’t you like to make the most efficient way to win?”
3733
3734“・・・・・・・”
3735
3736Addy has shrugged her shoulder after seeing the fluffy smile on the Eru faces and the bitter most expression in history which the Brave has.
3737
3738“Eeh, Eru-kun trying to do something evil again”
3739
3740“Is that how the goblin Braver’s way of fight?”
3741
3742“Hmmm, I’m not sure. Honestly, it might be not in the case for now”
3743
3744Addy was also showing a complicated look. The young Sorcerer who sat down close to her, tilt her head in confusion.
3745
3746Without the Silhouette Knight’s power, Eru knowledge would be limited. Although, that kind of knowledge is leaning into a vicious direction though.
3747
3748In the end, the Brave goes along with Eru suggestion without something he could refute back.

3757Chapter 97 The Village of Goblin
3758
3759While staring at the passing clouds, Adeltrud was sitting on the edge of the cart. Her Ejection Gear is also placed beside her by kneeling on the heels.
3760
3761“Eru-kun has stopped moving・・・・”
3762
3763After the clash, every Rubel Clan’s member were eradicated. The carts which had been carried by the Rubel Clan are now in the hands of Kaellous Clan. Using the four-legged demonic beast to pull the cart, they are going at slow pace. Alongside the cart was Ernesti who had recovered Ikaruga’s wreckage.
3764
3765“Eru-kun～. Ikaruga won’t recover even if you held it that much, isn’t it?”
3766
3767“It doesn’t matter・・・・I can・・・・I can feel the strength coming from it”
3768
3769“Aah. Eru-kun has turned into a good-for-nothing person”
3770
3771He was refusing to leave Ikaruga’s side and didn’t even trying to move either. Seeing Eru in that such state, Addy let out her breath on a sigh.
3772
3773There’s nothing she could do right now, the best way she can do is leave him alone while riding the cart to pulled them away. After absentmindedly without doing anything, a voice come down from their overhead.
3774
3775“It’s not the time to sleep, goblin Braver”
3776
3777Beside the cart, there is the Third-eyed Seat of Brave who took a peek at them while running along the cart.
3778
3779“We will soon arrive at capital of the Hundred. However, we can’t keep to bring these carts forever”
3780
3781They are heading to capital of the Hundred to fight the Rubel Clan. There is no fighting power for a such inanimate object like these carts. No matter how strong Eru and Addy are, they sure can’t afford to protect them all.
3782
3783“It would be good if we leave it somewhere・・・・”
3784
3785Of course, Eru has shown extreme reluctance to his statement.
3786
3787“I cannot leave Ikaruga just because it got broken! I must have to keep it from being stolen again!!”
3788
3789Addy shook her head in the front of reluctant Eru who was still hugging the wreckage.
3790
3791“This is not good. If you wanted to force Eru-kun in that state, you will need to resolve yourself to fight him”
3792
3793“To that extend?”
3794
3795Even for the Brave, he doesn’t want to fight Eru for no such reason. And Eru might even opposing him seriously.
3796
3797“Fumu. But, won’t it hard to move while bringing these carts?”
3798
3799By using their small number and sneak into their base—— is one of strategy that had been suggested by no other than Eru himself. While the titans are still need his advice, it would be difficult too if they leave the cart along with Eru.
3800
3801“In other words, it would be okay if we have a reason to not throw it, right?”
3802
3803“I wonder if that’s the case?”
3804
3805Although Addy was tilting her head, Eru was rather oddly motivated.
3806
3807“Let see about that. First, this cart is the one which have been brought by Rubel Clan’s soldiers. I mean, they wouldn’t be thinking to throw this cart if they really need it right・・・? Second, won’t be more valuable for us to keep the Stained Beast’s material rather than throwing them up?”
3808
3809Not only Silhouette Knight wreckage, but the Stained Beast’s carcass also loaded in the cart which had been carried by Rubel Clan.
3810
3811“Fine. I know, I know. Leaving aside we can’t throw it away, however, we can’t also leave it as it is”
3812
3813It can be said Eru has a silver tongue when it comes to a humanoid weapon. Meanwhile the warrior who had always been come to fight; the Brave cannot refute back to argue with Eru. And the brave was rather quickly given up after remembering about Eru nature.
3814
3815“I agree too. At least we must create a base somewhere in this forest”
3816
3817When they’re looking around the surrounding, nothing but a dense trees and tropical ground can be seen. Although one can assume if they proceeding the forest without leaving a mark is same like throwing them away. At any rate, they must create something as a landmark if they decided to hide it in the forest.
3818
3819“Understood. Let’s start with proceeding further”
3820
3821The titans began to continuing their advance with the four-legged demonic beast along them. Eventually, the road has gradually changed into wide and firm place. Granted, it’s a place where many other titans who were also using that place. By knowing that, the Third-eyed Seat of Brave has begun to increase his cautiousness and nervousness.
3822
3823“・・・・We will arrive at the capital of the hundred. Do not lost your sight”
3824
3825All of the Kaellous Clan’s members were nodding their head in agreement. Still no one knows when they will encounter someone in Rubel Clan’s members. Its not weird given the situation they are already in the enemy base.
3826
3827By using the stolen helmet and armor, they are gambling how far they can go and if they were fighting in here, they will easily be crushed by sheer number of the enemy.
3828
3829“If we have to fight, we can’t protect it alone goblin Braver”
3830
3831“I don’t mind. I will destroy every existence who want to touch my belonging without mercy”
3832
3833They had not understood the reason but, it seems they are not worrying about it anymore.
3834
3835â—†
3836
3837As far as they’re proceeding it further, finally the time has come. A huge shadow has appeared beyond the roadside. A giant-like humanoid form mixed with lump of metal. The closer they came at it, the more they realize it was an armed Rubel Clan’s member.
3838
3839“It would be nice if we can ignore it, but at least I want to gather some information about them”
3840
3841“You want to ask them? I think not”
3842
3843Behind his helmet, the Brave shows his bitter face. It was unlikely for the Brave to exchange words with the loathing Rubel Clan’s soldiers. And so, the One-eyed Seat of Servant who had been carrying their baggage all this time, come before the Brave.
3844
3845“Leave it to me Brave”
3846
3847As he said that, he takes the lead. Eventually, closing up their distance and close enough to exchanging words. As for Eru and Addy, they are secretly hide in the wreckage. Because they are not sure if they should be seen to them.
3848
3849“Halt. You there, what are you carrying on that cart?”
3850
3851Just as they thought, one of the Rubel Clan’s members start talking to the one in the lead. In response to the question, the One-eyed Seat of Servant from Kaellous Clan replied.
3852
3853“Agreed. We brought the Stained Beast and Mystic Beasts’ corpse here”
3854
3855When the Servant pointed his finger in the cart direction, the Rubel Clan’s member smirked after taking a glance.
3856
3857“Hmm. That was goblin’s food, wasn’t it? Then just carry it at once”
3858
3859In the shadow of the wreckage, Eru and Addy look at each other. They have realized something on the titan’s word. And the Servant continued to ask a question to the Rubel Clan without knowing there is someone who heard their conversation secretly.
3860
3861“Understood. Then, where should I carry it?”
3862
3863“As usual. To the goblin’s settlement”
3864
3865As if they were saying the most obvious thing, soon they’re leaving and spits without interest.
3866
3867“Right. Then, which direction is the goblin’s settlement?”
3868
3869After continuously asking a question, the Rubel Clan’s members stopped their advance and looked back slowly. A slight nervousness runs through the Brave guts and withdrawing his weapon whenever he ready to strike them down. As he thought they had asked them too many questions.
3870
3871However, although they have tilted their helmet a bit, the next moment, they are responding with a mocking voice and told him bluntly.
3872
3873“Hmm? Given by your eyes, I thought you are smarter than that? Obviously, it was over there. Did you have not opened your eyes properly?”
3874
3875While they glanced at him with a sneering expression, they had pointed to the other separated road.
3876
3877“I see. Thank you, I must go now”
3878
3879Although his response is kind of laid-back, every Kaellous Clan’s member continued moving the cart forwards. Behind them, a faint laughter can be heard as they could imagine it clearly what are the Rubel Clan’s members talking about.
3880
3881Then, after passing over the Rubel Clan’s members, the Brave went to the Servant’s side. Even though the Brave was doing his best to keep quiet, his face now looks something like a dreadful criminal beyond the helmet.
3882
3883“I’m sorry to have you close your eyes to face the Rubel Clan・・・・”
3884
3885When the Brave grabs his axe tightly, the Servant understood what he means and shook his head in disagreement.
3886
3887“I am the Servant, the one who will follow its master. The Brave duty is to fight. Therefore, other than fighting is my role. I do not mind it”
3888
3889“・・・・Leave it to me. When the time for enquiry has come, let us fight with all of our might”
3890
3891Once again, the Brave has renewed his resolution. He cannot betray the expectation from his own clan.
3892
3893“Nee, Eru-kun. Its look like we will head to the goblin place”
3894
3895“Let’s see, when they were looking at the wreckage, they are immediately point to the goblin’s settlement direction. I’m grateful for it but, what else could they have in there?”
3896
3897While they were being drifted away by the cart, Eru and Addy are lost in the train of thought after proceeding through to the forest.
3898
3899Anyway, the Kaellous Clan had no idea where this path will lead them to, still they have no other choice than moving toward the direction indicated. Also, when the road divided into other path again, for the time being they had to choose the same direction like before. The road they had took before were already headed into different direction, of course.
3900
3901“Looks like we have arrived. Hou, is that what they call goblin’s settlement?”
3902
3903The tree’s density had become sparse, entering the open spaced place.
3904
3905In there, there are a small building obviously too small for a titan which had been lined up. And there was a thin smoke rising from all over place, they even could feel the breath of life between them.
3906
3907“Well then, we’ve found it. What’s to do next?”
3908
3909“Yeah, we can’t hand over our baggage to them though”
3910
3911There’s no way for Eru to hand over his precious treasure which had been carried in the cart. But at that time, he suddenly raised his face and twitched his nose like he smells something.
3912
3913“This is, the smell, of blacksmith・・・・”
3914
3915“Eru-kun, did you get any strange quirks again”
3916
3917Despite Addy’s confused looks, Eru has begun to think about that village. The existence of goblin——the similar shape which had been carried in the cart——and the technique of blacksmithing.
3918
3919“・・・・Perhaps, they were the one in charge to process the material. So, I could fathom why we must bring the material here. If I am right, we might able to persuade them to help with anything”
3920
3921The answer is clear.
3922
3923With a big grin, his face has changed to form a (evil) smile.
3924
3925“To the goblin? But we won’t know if the Rubel Clan really keep them that way”
3926
3927“Yes. That’s why let’s us suppress it. Their scale seems small, and we could easily conquer them with our small number”
3928
3929“They’re the same race like you, aren’t they・・・・?”
3930
3931Although the surrounding titans seems taken back, only Eru who was full of motivation.
3932
3933â—†
3934
3935On that day, the goblin’s village was hit by sudden uproar. The heavy footsteps can be heard from the other side of the road which the only path leading to them, as if it was driving away the tranquility while they are still working in the middle of the day.
3936
3937“Is that・・・・huh!? A giant!?”
3938
3939“What they want in our lowly village・・・・the ‘payment’ day hasn’t arrived yet”
3940
3941“I don’t know・・・・・inform this to the chief, quickly to the village chief!”
3942
3943They were in havoc after seeing a group of titans who wearing an armor approaching to them steadily, because it was very rare for a titan coming to this distant land. The village’s resident, regardless of adult or children, were forced to lock their doors and windows while shutting themselves away in their homes. Although, there’s no meaning to lock themselves in their homes, but for now, they had no other place to flee from them.
3944
3945The village has engulfed in tranquility, as if they were living to hold their breath from the approaching titan’s footsteps.
3946
3947“What a small settlement for a goblin”
3948
3949At the end of the road, the Brave sighed after looking around on the entrance of the village. Still, this village is not much different from a small scale like the Kaellous’s settlement among the other clan. Moreover, their buildings are just for a goblin, so it was rather hard to stand out.
3950
3951When they were waiting at the village’s entrance, a few goblins tottered unsteadily while coming to greet them. Apparently one of them is already old and walk slowly than the other.
3952
3953“・・・・・So that was a goblin. They are truly a normal human after all”
3954
3955Eru who was watching quietly from the shadow in the cart, uttered a groan after looking at them. No matter how they look, everyone who had lived in this village and been called as a goblin were just a normal ‘villager’. There is no difference between the people who lived here and the people who lived in Flemmevira Kingdom or in the west. However, they seem wearing rugged clothes which likely have been worn out many times in the past. Although their atmosphere was even worse than the rural area in the kingdom.
3956
3957Then, among the gathered attentions, the elderly people had come to the titans’ feet on their knees and lowering their head into the ground. Although their shape was already small, they are even smaller as if the ground itself.
3958
3959“Oh・・・ooh, m, may I ask what kind of business for Your Grace to come to this lowly village? Perhaps, we still have a time before the payment day for this year・・・”
3960
3961As they spoke with a trembling voice, they can’t even lift their own faces. There is a 18m titan before them, and they could be easily crushed even if they slightly worsen the titan mood. However, they seem have another reason beside their excessive fear.
3962
3963Well, so far, the Kaellous Clan had to come here for no specific reason. Although the one who seriously planned to conquer the village is only Eru.
3964
3965“That’s wrong. We were just carrying the material”
3966
3967“I, I, I am afraid Your Grace has mistaken for lowly village like us・・・・ According to Your Grace, the right path to take would be the ‘upper town’ direction”
3968
3969The surrounding titans look at each other face. Of course, they don’t know the goblin have a multiple settlement.
3970
3971“I see. But, must we carry this to upper town-or-somewhat too?”
3972
3973Soon after that, their faces come in bewilderment. For a titan, they don’t really care about the goblin society.
3974
3975At that time, a bell-like voice can be heard in the cart direction.
3976
3977“Then, how about we took a rest in here?”
3978
3979“Hmm”
3980
3981Clearly, another voice can be heard among the surrounding titan. When the village chief raises its fearful face in astonishment, a small shadow standing on the cart could be seen.
3982
3983A small figure standing out among the group of intimidating titans with armor. No matter how they look at it, the small figure that looked like a child was standing there beside the surrounding titans confidently.
3984
3985The village chief opened his mouth after comparing the small figure with the titan, shortly after that he had noticed something different between the hair color and attire.
3986
3987“H, how・・・ can be for an upper town’s ‘nobility’ like yourself in this lowly place?”
3988
3989In the amazed elderly and the groaning village chief. Eru who still doesn’t really understand what’s going on, start to tilt his head while the villagers were lowering their head to him.
3990
3991Aside from their situation, the surrounding titan began to discuss each other.
3992
3993“What are you going to do, Brave? Build a base in here for a while?”
3994
3995“Too small for us. However, I do not mind at all. I think the goblin Braver will be satisfied if we leave it here”
3996
3997For the Kaellous Clan, they didn’t really mind at all about the village itself.
3998
3999“I hear there is no other clan who comes here. In that case, encountering them would be unlikely then”
4000
4001“Let’s go for a hunt first. We have eaten too much in these past few days. We need to replenish back our reserve”
4002
4003While the goblins are having conversation, the titan was trying to give a breath among themselves. Thus, the group began to settle down in the village of goblin for a time being.
4004
4005â—†
4006
4007Without troubling the villagers, the Kaellous Clan have begun to hunt in vicinity after dropping their baggage. Even though there were not too many, with reasonable results they are lining up their prey in satisfied looks. First, they need eat a food for today. When they are handling the prey by chopping them, they pass it to the fire for a while. As always, the titan’s cuisine was truly astonishing.
4008
4009“This is yours Braver”
4010
4011“Thank you as always”
4012
4013After receiving suitable piece of meat, Eru and his company will prepare the dinner. For a titan, one slice of meat is same as huge-pile of meat for a human being, which had been cut nicely by Addy. Although she was trying to cook using many different kinds of herbs, her expression becomes cloudy soon after that.
4014
4015“Hmmm, as I thought there’s not enough seasoning～. I wonder if I can trade something here”
4016
4017When the Kaellous Clan’s settlement was attacked, they had lost a lot of luggage because of that. And without any supply, their food is become more and more tasteless. But now, they have come to this far, there are many things they wanted to replenish in this full of life’s place.
4018
4019While thinking about that, Addy shook her head by looking around. Soon, her eyes meet with a villager. Although the villager was rather a small child thought.
4020
4021The children who had been watching them for a long time, were staring at the meat which has been cut off by Addy.
4022
4023Eru and Addy looked at each other face without nothing but unshaken enthusiasm.
4024
4025“・・・・Nee, want to eat this?”
4026
4027“!? Ah・・・・uu”
4028
4029The children didn’t expect being called up by them, as if they were wanted to run away, soon they are immediately stopped in hesitation. Their gaze now reciprocates between the lump of meat and Addy.
4030
4031“What should I do? Trade and exchange it with some-kind of materials?”
4032
4033“That’s worth considering but・・・・before that. I will give you a meat in exchange would you hear my story?”
4034
4035The children were even more puzzled and hesitated for a while, eventually they had come closer. Even if given a meat that have been cooked, they didn’t even mind the heat.
4036
4037“Do you like this meat”
4038
4039“Yes・・・・yes!! It’s delicious!! Very delicious!!”
4040
4041Although, without much seasoning but only cooked by a fire. Eru had narrowed his eyes after seeing them eat like a feast.
4042
4043“Are you usually doesn’t eat that much meat?”
4044
4045“Yes! Because we need to hunt for that”
4046
4047“・・・・・Hou”
4048
4049Eru was listening with a slight smile on his face——but, for Addy who had always be with him, know what he will thinking for. That’s a face when he started to planning something.
4050
4051“Eru-kun・・・・?”
4052
4053“I see. I think this will be a good ‘businesses’ for us”
4054
4055When the children were eating with them, the adults who looks like their blood had been drained from their face, ran through to them.
4056
4057“Wh, what are・・・・・!! What are you guys doing here!!”
4058
4059Their face turned to white when they are seeing Eru and Addy after appearing in anger. They soon bow down on the spot as if they were rubbing of their head into the ground.
4060
4061“How can you so rude to the nobles!! However・・・・however they are still a children, please! Please be mercy at us・・・・!!”
4062
4063“I hear this village is forbidding to hunt”
4064
4065Eru asked them while ignoring their beggar.
4066
4067The villagers trembled in fear, because they could not ignore his question and raises their head.
4068
4069“・・・・We are not only one who live in here. If we enter the forest carelessly, we will easily become the beast’s prey. Therefore, the honorary ‘Knight’ forbit us to hunt”
4070
4071“I see, it would be dangerous if you encounter demonic beast, right?”
4072
4073Although Addy was convinced after hearing that, Eru has sensed something wrong in the story.
4074
4075“I’ve been thinking since the first time I come here but. Slightly, feels off, right?”
4076
4077“What are you mean?”
4078
4079“Why the giant won’t live together with the goblin in this village?”
4080
4081This is a village only for a goblin. A village dedicated to a small person which located in the corner of the demonic forest; Bocuse Sea of Trees.
4082
4083“For us, we had to use Silhouette Knight to repel the demonic beast. But there is nothing here. Although I can understand if they are scared being protected by the giants but, there’s nothing like that”
4084
4085While looking around, Eru let the villagers raise their head and stood among them.
4086
4087“Why they forbit to enter the forest because it was dangerous but was forsaken in the forest? It’s almost like, they had been treated like no one cares if they died in here?”
4088
4089“That would be right if you say it like that. But, what should we do?”
4090
4091With a kind smile, Eru slowly stands in the front of the villagers. They don’t know what kind of speech he would give to them while trembling in fear.
4092
4093“I have something to discuss with the villagers here. Would you like to have a deal? I will give you enough foot and security”
4094
4095Eru put the cooked meat in front of them. And the villagers who saw it got their stomach pangs.
4096
4097“In return, I want you to provide blacksmithing technology for us”
4098
4099Ah that was your aims from the start
4100
4101At that time, the first one who notice that was Addy.
4102
4103â—†
4104
4105“Yes, yes. Line up properly please. It’s okay, we still have many so please be patient. It’s not like we normally can eat the whole duel class demonic beast at all”
4106
4107In the next day, a duel class demonic beast which had been hunted by the titan placed in the center of the village. By Addy command, the woman in the village were taking it apart and dismantling it together.
4108
4109“Well then. Because the demonic beast’s muscle is hard, it would be troublesome if we don’t handle it properly!”
4110
4111In the first place, Addy has considerable cooking skill, and she has completely mastered dismantling a demonic beast while living among the titan.
4112
4113She had to arrange the unskilled villagers without a miss.
4114
4115The line of sight of the women who were following Addy’s command was oddly glistening. With a knife in the hand and a basket in the back, they were participating in a war to get as much meat as possible. For the villagers, the opportunity to get enough meat was valuable enough to think it like a battle.
4116
4117“I’m sorry for asking to hunt more for us”
4118
4119“I do not mind. We didn’t have any trouble to cover for a whole goblin. Moreover, it was natural to get reward from the hard work”
4120
4121This is not just a good intention. But it was a contract and business negotiation. The villagers who had received the meat will fix the Kaellous Clan’s armor.
4122
4123“Because the ‘spoils of war’ we get from the Rubel Clan were different size with us”
4124
4125“Please leave it to us! We already used to make an armor for Your Grace to wear!!”
4126
4127The men who were gathering at the titan continue to appeal one after another. Rather than appealing to work hard, it was an attitude to give them more meat after all.
4128
4129And then, the duel class demonic beast is dismantled before the villager’s appetite. At that night, a banquet was held in the center of the village. Drinking the treasured alcohol and eat the cooked meat.
4130
4131Addy was also happy to get their seasoning, including the herb they had used first time in their live. It was better to cook with a proper seasoning after all.
4132
4133“Well then, we can make the Outer Skeleton with this・・・・”
4134
4135In the loud voice, Eru has deeply smiled in satisfaction.
4136
4137â—†
4138
4139Thus, the time has flown so fast.
4140
4141“How about that master”
4142
4143“Fumu, this is good. It won’t get in my way. Hmm, I cannot underestimate the goblin skill at all”
4144
4145“Well, we are eating a meat nowadays. So, everyone were also motivated by that”
4146
4147The villagers have worked hard. In the first place, this village has many blacksmiths and their main livelihood were producing an armor for the Rubel Clan but got replaced by a deal with Kaellous Clan.
4148
4149As a result, not only meat, but their food situation was also had been improved at once. Because blacksmithing is a physical labor and their food had increased, the blacksmiths are getting better and healthier. So, they can move more energetically.
4150
4151The one who have increased their work is not only the blacksmiths. Everyone in the village were making a dried meat after getting the meat from the demonic beast. They intend to use the food without exception. In their eyes, there was a glimpse of an extraordinary obsession in them. At the same time, they were also preparing to make a dried meat for the Kaellous Clan.
4152
4153In the busily village, Eru and Addy have visited the village chief.
4154
4155“Aah. My, my. We are really grateful for a noble like yourself and of course without the giant help we still able to live to this extend”
4156
4157“No, no. This is what they call a business. More importantly, we have a few things to ask you today”
4158
4159The old village chief nods in smile while advising Eru and Addy to take the brewed tea.
4160
4161“Yes, I’ll answer it everything I know”
4162
4163“I am probably not a noble like you have known”
4164
4165Unable to understand the sudden released words, the village chief blinked his eyes.
4166
4167“We might even not a goblin either. I want to know about the tribe called goblin who looks like ours, and able speak in the same language like ours”
4168
4169With a fluffy smile, Eru has done taking a sip of tea.

4177
4178Chapter 98 The Peaceful Village and The Unrestful Occurrence
4179
4180——Not a noble, moreover not even a goblin.
4181
4182The village’s chief was unable to hide its bewilderment when Ernesti try to introduce himself.
4183
4184“・・・・Then what should I do to call you for?”
4185
4186“I’m also troubled too. That said, let’s just leave it as a traveler”
4187
4188They look at each other face, revealing the puzzlement expression.
4189
4190“A traveler・・・・I thought that kind of word have no relation for us who can’t move from here”
4191
4192The village’s chief is mumbling with a smile. Because the world they know was only this narrow place.
4193
4194“I would like to know, who in the earth are you guys”
4195
4196As they were putting their body forward, they shook their head after asked that question.
4197
4198“We do not really know about that complicated things. However, we have lived here by generation after generation and we’d called as a goblin since that time”
4199
4200In the villager chief’s face, which has been carved with many wrinkles, there is no doubts or denials at all. Although, they may not be interested in the first place. For them, living in here were the most natural thing in the world.
4201
4202“My great grandfather was also doesn’t know how long we have been living here. Even if someone asked the same question, I’m sure there is no further answer than that”
4203
4204“Is that so・・・・come to think of it, you had always made an equipment for the giant on this village, right?”
4205
4206“Yes. Although not only our village, but many villages other than us should be doing that, I suppose”
4207
4208Eru began to tilt his head.
4209
4210“Are you saying there is other village like yours?”
4211
4212“Yes, from what we’d heard. Since we can’t go elsewhere, we do not know very much about”
4213
4214In his mind, the sense of discomfort start rising again.
4215
4216Numerous isolated villages in the middle of the forest, and the people who doesn’t know the outside world—— there is no kindness toward the human beings in the Bocuse Sea of Trees, even though there were also other human which had been living in here.
4217
4218“From what I’d heard, aren’t you being protected by the giants?”
4219
4220“There are the ‘nobles’ who lives in the upper town with the giants alongside. They are come to our place only in rare occasion”
4221
4222So that’s why they are surprised, said the village’s chief answering Eru question.
4223
4224“Then, why this village made giant’s armor? Its not like you are in their protection either”
4225
4226“Although they are not helping us directly, we also receive their blessing by living closely with them”
4227
4228The village’s chief said that without breaking the calm expression. It can be said, all of that were something absolute with no room to doubt for them.
4229
4230“Isn’t dangerous for you to live in this forest with a few demonic beasts?”
4231
4232“That’s・・・・・the reason why the nobles forbit us to go there”
4233
4234“Aren’t you having difficulties in finding the forest’s blessing? Did you receive the food only on the field? In fact, we were also having difficulties to find a meat since arriving in here”
4235
4236The village’s chief faces who had been calm until now, shook his head in the first time. Although its only few, there is a bitter-like wrinkles shows on the face.
4237
4238“We have no choice・・・・there’s no ‘knight’ among us. The one party who live in the upper town alongside the giants is only ‘Knight Runner’ which belongs to the knight order. We are unable to enter the forest if only just among us・・・・”
4239
4240Along with the long sigh which had been exhaled among the word, Eru slowly raised his face.
4241
4242“・・・・Did you say Knight Runner?”
4243
4244With a word that cannot be misheard. Eru has faced the village’s chief with an unusual look.
4245
4246“I wonder why I have heard that such words. However, it seems like it was quite different from what I know. What kind of people are the nobles and that knight runner?”
4247
4248“The knight runner and their companion were nobles in a same time. They are living in the upper town and conversing each other with the giants”
4249
4250At that time, the village’s chief who had been answered Eru’s question until now, has changed his line of sight.
4251
4252“May I confirm that you are a traveler who had come from different place?”
4253
4254“Yes. We come from a country far in the west”
4255
4256Eru has shut his eyes and think upon the far place. He was wondering about the safety of the escaped levitate ship after he and his beloved machine has fallen. Although, he suddenly concerns about that.
4257
4258“There’s no giant on that country and there is also someone like us・・・・like you who had small body and lived in a number”
4259
4260“A place where there are no giants・・・・I suppose, it’s hard to imagine”
4261
4262The village’s chief muttered and lost in thought after imagining Eru stories.
4263
4264“Same like here, we encountered many demonic beasts there. But, with the Silhouette Knight’s power——the giant knight, we able to protect our land and people”
4265
4266The village’s chief and his surrounding looked at each other face. They could feel the dizziness between the confusion as if they were trying to imagine Eru’s country.
4267
4268“You say they would protect us. But we don’t have anything・・・・・”
4269
4270“In that case, would you like to build it by ourselves?”
4271
4272The village’s chief raises his face without thinking after hearing the unexpected word.
4273
4274“I don’t know what kind of knight you might prefer to but, I have the knowledge to create an existence which can fight toe-to-toe with the giants”
4275
4276Eru cheerfully shows his smile without concerning the doubtfulness of village’s chief. He is something more than a goblin, villager or even noble. Granted, it can be said he is more like a heterogenous form of living being.
4277
4278“What in the earth are you trying to do?”
4279
4280“I mean, I need someone who will act as my arms and legs. I can’t do it alone even if I have knowledge and skill”
4281
4282Eru has stood up among the buzzed villager.
4283
4284“Let’s see. Its faster if you look at it, please come here”
4285
4286After he said that, they are leaving the village’s chief house. Although the confused villagers were still hesitating, but after knowing the village’s chief has stood up, soon they are following Eru after that.
4287
4288The destination ahead of them was the cart which had been delivered in there before.
4289
4290“Are you trying to do something again?”
4291
4292In the middle of their way, the One-eyed Servant complaining to them while walking beside. He has learned if Eru gets involved in something then it would turn into something not good at all.
4293
4294Thus, the villagers who had come to the huge cart somewhat looked uneasy, because they wouldn’t know what kind of thing hidden in there.
4295
4296“How is it? Do you recognize what is this?”
4297
4298The Servant heave a sigh after being asked by Eru to lift something on the cart with sincerity. The thing is a wreckage—— a metallic corpse that barely looks like an upper body of a person. It was the upper body of the destroyed Syrphirne.
4299
4300The villagers have stopped their breath. The village’s chief lip trembled slightly as he opened his eyes that had been buried in the wrinkles.
4301
4302“Is, is this・・・a knight, I suppose?”
4303
4304“As I thought you have recognized it. Then you are perhaps・・・・・no, that’s not important right now”
4305
4306As Eru shook his head a little, once again he looks at the surrounding people.
4307
4308“This is what they call Silhouette Knight. Unfortunately, it was broken on my way going here. Our purpose is to repair this”
4309
4310After listening Eru’s explanation, every villager looks at each other faces. They were still unsure on what to do next, eventually their line of sight gathered in one place. On their sight, there is the village’s chief who have opened his mouth in determination after his lip still trembled slightly.
4311
4312“Ahh・・・・even it was truly a knight. I suppose we still can’t help you because we have no skill to do that”
4313
4314“You already have the skill in blacksmithing to make the giant’s armor. The remaining is, if some of you might know about alchemy”
4315
4316The village’s chief slowly shook his head.
4317
4318“We don’t have any knowledge in alchemy・・・・・the one who know about that is only a noble one”
4319
4320Eru lightly nod in agreement and cross his arms.
4321
4322“If we don’t know anything about alchemy then we might be lacking in crystal tissue. Still, I have no choice to find for an alternative. Now that you mention it, I wonder if the material for giant’s armor still available”
4323
4324“Yes, it was stored in the village warehouse. If you would, I will lead you there”
4325
4326“Then, please do”
4327
4328The village chief call its people and guiding Eru to the warehouse.
4329
4330After they went to the warehouse, everyone who live in the village had gathered to the village’s chief side who still remained in there.
4331
4332“Was it fine to bring him to the warehouse? Inside that warehouse—— were it not ours but the nobles’ belonging wasn’t it? What would happen if they found it out in the next inspection・・・・”
4333
4334“Everybody in the village are grateful for the fare. But that doesn’t mean・・・”
4335
4336After listening their opinion one after another, the village’s chief eventually raises his face.
4337
4338“Even if we continue to live like this, would we be just starving again?”
4339
4340With that single word, the surrounding people fell into silent.
4341
4342“Are you still depending on the nobles who has helped us until now. Then, the giants who have arrived here were far better than them”
4343
4344“It may be true, but”
4345
4346“Even if we have no knight, if we are able to talk with the giants・・・we might able to state our wish for living in the upper town to the king (Oberon). Even if we can’t archive that, we could change something”
4347
4348When the village’s chief spoke slowly, and look around to the everybody presents.
4349
4350“First of things, let’s return the goodwill we receive. Then, find another solution on the other day”
4351
4352While the villagers were discussing something, Eru and Addy are exploring the village warehouse. An unusually large for a warehouse compared to the size of the village. That reason could be understood in one glance on the inside.
4353
4354“Woow! There is many demonic beast’s material here!”
4355
4356“I see, naturally it would be like this to make an equipment for the giants after all”
4357
4358In order to make it easy for the villager, the materials hadn’t piled up too high. Because of that, they need a large area to stack them.
4359
4360Eru walks around the lined shelves and the materials. While the etching Addy began to tilt her head on the side.
4361
4362“Eru-kun, did you find something useful?”
4363
4364“Yes, it would be good if we had a silver but, the variety of metals didn’t many as I thought”
4365
4366“Silver, huh”
4367
4368“If we had a silver plate, at least we can build some Silhouette Arms”
4369
4370“Ah, it wasn’t something we carved on the Magius Jet Engine’s Emblem Graph, right・・・・ahh, that was sure tough to do～. But even if we create it, we have no unit to equip it, right?”
4371
4372Their Silhouette Knight were still in wreckage condition. No matter how many they can build the silhouette arms, there is no way for them to use it in flesh. However, Eru tilt his head to the other side.
4373
4374“Of course. That’s why I need the giants to use it”
4375
4376“Ehh”
4377
4378After hearing such unexpected word, Addy has stopped her feet suddenly.
4379
4380“Because they have a huge body close to the duel class, perhaps their mana was also suitable for them too. Then what left is, how to utilize it”
4381
4382“Ehh!? I know but, why so sudden?”
4383
4384“Let’s make everything we can here. We can take it back if we need it and also it will strengthen them too. In that sense, this kind of weapon are convenient”
4385
4386However, after looking through the warehouse, Eru let out a slight dejection with a sigh.
4387
4388“That being said, we do not have the materials. After this, let’s go exploring area around the village”
4389
4390When the two of them leave the warehouse, they were coming to the titan’s place.
4391
4392“Brave-san! We want to explore the surrounding village for a while”
4393
4394“Hmm. What are you trying to do goblin Braver?”
4395
4396“I think we’ve to find a weapon for the giants to use”
4397
4398The Third-eyed Seat of Brave has looked down on his foot and raises his doubt to the small Eru.
4399
4400“A weapon you say? Will we able to use the weapon which had been made by a goblin?”
4401
4402“Not a problem, didn’t they make an armor for you guys?”
4403
4404The Brave now cross his arm and think deeply. This small goblin was always saying something exaggerated about their body difference. Although, having any weapon doesn’t mean they are clearly at disadvantage.
4405
4406“Well, I don’t know how but, it’s fine if you want to made that. Servant, please do”
4407
4408“Yes, understood”
4409
4410Of course, the one who will help them was the One-eyed Servant role. Eru thanked him happily.
4411
4412“Well then, should we go then”
4413
4414“Ah, we’ve to prepare a lunch before that!”
4415
4416Addy who somehow in high spirit begins to bring various preparations. In the end, they didn’t leave on that day.
4417
4418Instead they leave on the other day, Eru and Addy who had made the preparation, entering the forest with the Servant in group.
4419
4420â—†
4421
4422There is only deep green forest that surrounding around the village. Sometimes they just had found some silly demonic beast. In order to fulfill its hunger after finding a small human, the demonic beast was killed with tremendous speed. They took out their anger on the demonic beast, because they have found nothing.
4423
4424The three of them were resting on the tree after walking around until the sun has surpassed the middle point of the day.
4425
4426“Haa. We got nothing・・・・”
4427
4428“At least we could get something to eat today”
4429
4430The demonic beast will become their food. It can be said that alone was not in vain. Although, what they found was at least the minimum from what they anticipated.
4431
4432“No matter how they look, it was just a forest. Why not make some silhouette arms with engraved demonic beast bone instead”
4433
4434“Eru-kun gradually changed and in bad taste!? Somehow I don’t want it・・・・”
4435
4436Addy who had imagined a weapon that made from demonic beast’s bone, immediately show a disappointed look.
4437
4438“Generally, mana conductivity on the demonic beast weren’t too high in the first place, it would be our last resort if we must”
4439
4440“As I thought, that was the reason”
4441
4442If the machine has assembled, a little bad taste will not discourage Eru at all. It just a little price to pay. However, for the time being, they have no intention to take such means. While complaining about it, Eru face was turned upwards.
4443
4444They were leaning and resting on a tree. Although he was looking up for a while with a sloppy look, suddenly he got up and strikingly hit the tree’s surface then confirming the surface texture. After that, he unexpectedly pulled out the Winchester and peel off the wood. After examining the smashed peeled skin, he now strokes the below surface. Somewhat there is a conviction on his face and smiled broadly.
4445
4446Addy and the Servant looked surprisingly at the sudden Eru’s movement who happily lift the peeled tree’s skin.
4447
4448“Eru-kun. What so sudden?”
4449
4450“Addy, this tree. Isn’t this tree! Do you know about this tree?”
4451
4452“Hmm?”
4453
4454Addy doesn’t really understand but, for now she is trying to look at the tree’s skin. On the white surface, somewhat it was smooth. As she was trying to remember a plant with such characteristics, somehow, she managed to remember it from the bottom of her memory.
4455
4456“Mm～. Ah! I see, I’ve heard it from the class. This is what they call ‘White Mist’, isn’t?”
4457
4458“Do you remember what are their characteristics?”
4459
4460“Errr. Normally, a wood is hard to flow mana, right? On that point, silver is the best metal which easier to pass. But I hear White Mist is a tree that have good mana conductivity exceptionally well”
4461
4462“That’s correct!”
4463
4464Eru applauds excitedly with joy. Because he looked so much cuter, for time being Addy was hugging him closely.
4465
4466“For that reason, the wand’s handle uses this kind of tree・・・・this is truly fine catch”
4467
4468“Ehh, Eru-kun. Are you trying to use this tree?”
4469
4470The two of them looked up behind the tree. Eru immediately look back and speak to the one-eyed titan.
4471
4472“Servant-san! I have a request”
4473
4474“What do you need goblin Braver”
4475
4476“Let’s cut this tree and bring it back”
4477
4478“What?”
4479
4480It was quite unexpected offer, although the Servant only have one eye, he thoughtlessly stares at the tree. The tree itself has grown quite well. It will not be easy for him to bring it back.
4481
4482“・・・・・This tree? I guess・・・・you are serious about this”
4483
4484Looking at Eru, there is no sign of him telling a joke. The Servant now thinking about how to do it, while endlessly heave a sigh.
4485
4486â—†
4487
4488“・・・May I ask you goblin Braver. What are you trying to do with this”
4489
4490The bewilderment of the Brave’s three eyes when he looks at the Servant who was supposed to explore the surrounding area, coming back desperately with carrying a tree. Indeed it was too heavy even for a titan, the Servant who just had returned from the forest ended in ragged breath and carrying a tree. In the same time, he would also have to carry the beast he hunted.
4491
4492The scenery itself was very empathic. Even the Brave saw him off without saying anything to him.
4493
4494Furthermore, without caring the titan’s hardship. A certain small thing (Eru) was somehow excitedly without reason.
4495
4496“For time being, to make it easy to use, we still need to process this wood into a board first・・・・Brave-san! Pleas lend me your hand!”
4497
4498“I said, what are you trying to do!? Are you telling me this log is a weapon!?”
4499
4500The Brave doesn’t have any idea on what Eru trying to do at all. He was confused to imagine what kind of reason he needs to cut this tree.
4501
4502“No. After processing this into a board, I will carve the emblem graph here. To the everybody in Kaellous Clan. I will lend you my tactical magic (Overed Spell) knowledge”
4503
4504Even though the titan stared at him with a sharp look, Eru is not afraid at all. Or rather, he was even more fight it back strongly.
4505
4506Although they were doubtful about it, the titan at least helping Eru. That because their trust in Eru who had bring them to this point. He has insisted to do that, either way they had decided it will not be useless at all in the end.
4507
4508Although the titan doesn’t really have special skill on handling that, above of all they had their own processing technology——their strength.
4509
4510Because of the villager and the titan were going all out, the board is finished in a short time.
4511
4512The issue is, they have to carve the emblem graph on the whitish board’s surface. More than anything, the problem is there was no other than Eru who had memorized the Overed Spell. For time being, they had to write the graph on the other place and then engrave it on board together.
4513
4514As expected, it sure took some time but, either way they have completed a new equipment.
4515
4516“This・・・・So what is this?”
4517
4518The third-eyed titan was looking at that in bewilderment.
4519
4520Certainly, it took a form like a box. A rectangular wooden box. There is no accurate explanation other than that.
4521
4522Inside the box, there are large number of the carved Overed Spell on the surface. Literally, it is just tightly packed. Furthermore, the crystal catalyzation which had been pulled out from the demonic beast was attached on the outside of the box, at least the function was satisfy enough.
4523
4524There is a handle on the outside while they can also grab it to hold. Although the handling wasn’t good at all, at least they were able to aim with it.
4525
4526But it wasn’t suitable for hitting something. Rather, it was something more fragile and cannot be used for fighting. For someone like a Brave or his companion, it can only be described as a mysterious object rather than categorized as a weapon.
4527
4528“Brave-san. Please face to that tree while holding that”
4529
4530Said Eru while pointing to a tree on the distance.
4531
4532The Brave following his order with a vague movement. No matter how you look at it, it just a figure of a titan who holds somewhat unknown box.
4533
4534“Now, pour some mana on it!”
4535
4536“・・・・What is that”
4537
4538At that moment, Eru has stopped working. He slowly turns his neck to the surrounding and somewhat showing an embarrassing look while smilingly at the glaring Brave.
4539
4540“What kind of movement is pouring some mana on it? I can’t understand if you describe it poorly”
4541
4542“How can be・・・・perhaps the giants are not conscious about mana that much?”
4543
4544There’s also possible if he thinks about that way. For Eru; for a human who had a small body, they have to polish their wisdom for the technique of magic instead.
4545
4546But for the titans. A huge body which can fight toe-to-toe with duel class demonic beast. Have a high strength and attack power. Even if they didn’t do anything, they already had built up their power by living in the forest. Thus, without polishing the skill, they haven’t known how to use mana or magic.
4547
4548“This is troubling・・・・No. Speaking of which, there is someone among the giant who could handle a mana”
4549
4550Soon, Eru has remembered something. There’s someone among the giants who had been called as a magician.
4551
4552Before answering his question. Someone has come from the Kaellous Clan’s group.
4553
4554“Brave. Please lend that to me”
4555
4556“Hm. Is that you young Sorcerer (Parva Marga)”
4557
4558A little girl (among the titan) who have inherited the Sorcerer’s name.
4559
4560She stood before the Brave and reach out her hand. At first, the Brave was troubled for a while, eventually he handed the box on his hand to her.
4561
4562Although the box was made for the Brave, it is slightly oversized even for her. Somehow, she able to hold it and start to opens her mouth.
4563
4564“Goblin Braver. There are not many among us who can use magic”
4565
4566“It seems that way. I didn’t really think it at all”
4567
4568“Although I’m still inexperienced. At least I can pour some mana on it. Do I need to do like this・・・・・kyaa!?”
4569
4570On the moment when the young Sorcerer has poured some mana on it. A strong light came upon them. It was a White Mist which a wood that can easily absorbed the mana. With the mana that has traveled over the carved graph, it will make the magic through the fiber of the wood. Soon as it reaches the top of the catalyst, a phenomenon will appear in this world.
4571
4572The unique luminescence soon takes a form like an orange’s ball of flame. The type of script that had been inscribed is explosion-type magic called ‘Spear of Flame (Carbalion)’.
4573
4574It went through according to the script and flew into the air. In the faint light, a flaming bullet strikes a tree at the end of the trajectory. Soon turned into a detonating flame and shattered after hitting the trunk then explode into pieces.
4575
4576“・・・・・What”
4577
4578The young Sorcerer who had opened her four eyes, become petrified with her opened mouth. Even though the Brave was also showing an astonished expression, this time he was immediately derived in joy.
4579
4580“To think you has learned such a wonderful magic (Magia) young Sorcerer! With this, the Sorcerer will also be proud of you!!”
4581
4582“・・・・・No, that wasn’t me. Just・・・・what is this”
4583
4584The young titan girl looks at the weapon she held nervously.
4585
4586That was something she felt in the first time despite being a magician. Even though she didn’t build her own magic, the magic phenomenon still occurs. There is a tremendous discomfort along with a something impossible has happened. But more importantly, she has immediately understood the meaning of this ‘weapon’.
4587
4588She now looked at the person who had made this weapon in some kind of admiration. But the right person who have made that; Eru was troubled by crossing his arm.
4589
4590“Mumumu, as I though it can be used if we can pour some mana properly. But I didn’t expect that the giants weren’t good at handling mana. Now what to do・・・・muu”
4591
4592Although the young Sorcerer seems stunned for a while, eventually on the line of her sight, she regained her strength back. She has remembered about what should she do and the only one she could do.
4593
4594“Goblin Braver. Was it fine to teach everyone on how to use mana?”
4595
4596Eru began to look up at her face.
4597
4598“I will be saved if you could do that. If you do your best, at least I can prepare some silhouette arms for everyone”
4599
4600“So, you are saying that everybody will be able to use this if I could do it・・・・”
4601
4602It might be something terrific for a someone like a Sorcerer. It can be said that was possible for her to relinquish her role which was being an expert in magical knowledge. However, at the same time, she knew her immaturity.
4603
4604She didn’t even need time to decide. The young Sorcerer turned back and looked around her clan’s companion.
4605
4606“Brave, everyone. Please, open your eyes and hear me. If we could use magic without being a Sorcerer. It means anyone will become able to use magic. This weapon will surely lead us who have a less power”
4607
4608On the figure of the immature and young Sorcerer who holds the silhouette arms, the Brave has already opened his eyes. Although she was still small, part her behavior is showing the glimpse of the Sorcerer——the one who lead their clan.
4609
4610After a while, the Brave nods in agreement.
4611
4612“I will believe on what you have seen young Sorcerer. We need some power for us who still in small number”
4613
4614Everyone from the Kaellous Clan began to gather. They have believed on the young Sorcerer’s determination and made their will as one.
4615
4616From that day, the titan began to train every day. It was nothing so advanced at all. They just need to recognize the mana inside them.
4617
4618If they’re able to learn how to pour mana, what’s left can be handled by the silhouette arms. It was something revolutionary for a titan who able to use magic without being a Sorcerer——.
4619
4620â—†
4621
4622While the titan passionately trains to mastering the silhouette arms, every villager on the goblin’s village were busily undertaking on manufacturing silhouette arms
4623
4624Their lifestyle on food assumption has also improved dramatically, because the titans were supporting them. Even it was strange for them, to be perfectly balanced on each other.
4625
4626With that situation, Eru was being called by the young Sorcerer. Before the young titan, Eru sat down there. Although she is still young, her height easily reached near 5m——which three times larger than Eru.
4627
4628Even though she didn’t do anything, a strange intimidating atmosphere leaking out on the blatant pupils of her four eyes. However, Eru didn’t seems to care anything at all.
4629
4630“Umu, Although, she is cute, surely she’s big!”
4631
4632And Addy the other person who strangely sits down on the young Sorcerer shoulder while knitting her hair. Beside the big hair, it seems fairly strong and hard.
4633
4634“I hear you know many things goblin Braver”
4635
4636“Yes, I may look like this but I had led one Knight Order back in the country”
4637
4638Although his answer didn’t clear enough for the young Sorcerer to understand, at least she was able to understand his behavior and self-confident were not groundless at all.
4639
4640“I’m・・・・haven’t inherited that much from my predecessors. Because I’m still young to learn・・・・・my predecessor was already gone to the Hundred Eyes side”
4641
4642Addy began to peek up the dejected young Sorcerer who looking at the ground. When she was distracted for a moment, the young Sorcerer regains her strength and stare at Eru.
4643
4644“To become able to make something like that. You are truly the Sorcerer among the Brave”
4645
4646“Well, yeah. I wonder that would be in the case if it was from the giant’s perspective”
4647
4648Eru tilt his head to the side. Granted, that kind of perceptive is the unique culture of the titan.
4649
4650At that time, the Four-eyed Seat of young Sorcerer has corrected her posture. Facing him with sincere attitude and unheeding their difference in height.
4651
4652“Then I want you to teach me. Your knowledge of magic”
4653
4654“That is・・・・・even for me, I do not know anything about giant’s magic?”
4655
4656“Still. I do not have enough power as a Sorcerer. I can no longer receive such teaching anymore・・・・”
4657
4658She holds her fist firmly. Even for the immature titan like her, she couldn’t lend her power in a situation where her clan in peril.
4659
4660“I don’t think it was okay to stay this way either. The magic that had been used by those weapons. I think just knowing it might become a power”
4661
4662After listening her earnestness, Eru nods his head.
4663
4664“I see. Now I understand, I will do my best to teach you my knowledge”
4665
4666“I’m counting on you, goblin Braver”
4667
4668In the same time, Addy who still on the top of the young Sorcerer shoulder, suddenly poked out.
4669
4670“Then, call us ‘master’ from now on!”
4671
4672“Err, Addy?”
4673
4674Leaving aside the twins who had been taught a magic by Eru. For Addy, she was her first disciple or somewhat like her junior. And apparently, she seems like it very much.
4675
4676“I understand, master (Magister)”
4677
4678“Master! Fufufu, what a nice ring!”
4679
4680“Addy・・・・are you fine with that?”
4681
4682“Although she’s a little big, it was okay because she is cute!”
4683
4684“Yeah, sometimes I cannot understand Addy at all”
4685
4686
4687
4688Even though it was a little unexpected, Eru didn’t stop her. Because Eru is a quite person who will not stopping other people’s actions. Thus, Eru has acquired a new disciple in ages beside the twins.
4689
4690After that he want to start the lesson for the eagerly young Sorcerer and said.
4691
4692“Can you show me the giant’s magic first? Its fine if it something simple. Please draw it like what kind of script did you use”
4693
4694The young Sorcerer began to nods her head and pick up a stick then start drawing the shape on the ground.
4695
4696“Hm. Basically, there are no change. It sure interesting. But, as expected for a giant to use this kind of high output. However, there is a lot of useless things. I wonder if that was because they could break through the output without considering the importance of efficiency”
4697
4698Eru was staring on the ground, but soon he grabs a wooden stick on his hand.
4699
4700As he walks around, he has rewritten the script on the ground. More precisely, he makes it more efficient. While compressing the meaning of the script many times.
4701
4702A countless number of cutting-edge weapons in the Kingdom of Fremmivira. The one who have assembled the precise script for it was none other than Ernesti himself. Although, recently he had gotten more job as a knight commander and as a knight runner, that kind of skill deeply sleep inside him.
4703
4704For a long time, he hasn’t showed himself as a programmer.
4705
4706“The core script was too naïve. It doesn’t have to be connected that much, for that reason let’s just expand it around. Even with this, the power won’t be reduced if the flame is spread out・・・・”
4707
4708“Ma, master・・・・?”
4709
4710In front of her eyes, her technique is going to be rewritten. All the young Sorcerer can do is only watching him over. Because, she couldn’t fathom what Eru’d done at all. She has understood it clearly that something she learn from the previous Sorcerer was quite different.
4711
4712“In any case, why not use magic more efficiently. Wasn’t this giant’s magic already good enough. They had been made with a firm build”
4713
4714Eru start to stands up while smiling in satisfaction.
4715
4716Thus no one know, a something formidable was about to start————.

4725
4726For those who doesn’t know about this.
4727
4728this is the earlier concept of ikaruga which had been uploaded by the author-san.
4729
4730leaving aside the difference, ikaruga is known as a masked fierce god. as you can see the crystal tissue looked like a muscle where the armor placed like a skin, enabling each joint a free movement. I personally didn’t dislike the modern concept, heck yeah the illustrator is the one who make a lot of gundam design and i love gundam very much. but in a sense the fierce god meaning stuck in the earlier concept than modern one.
4731
4732Well yeah, this is just my opinion though. if you have something to know, just ask the author-san directly.
4733
4734right, this month really a downside.
4735
4736my nose has been itching everyday since the spring come. although i already anticipated it i caught some cold in these past days.
4737
4738fortunately, it just normal cold but, i couldn’t concentrated at all. taking strong meds only make my sleepy while the most time i had been working are at night. someone told me whiskey or vodka were great medicine for cold but, i wasn’t sure they want to erase my memories too. damn those flameable water.
4739
4740i’ll take back my lost time eventually, but it seems it still take me 5 to 6 days or even 7 days while recheck, proofreading, or finding some typo in the middle.
4741
4742though, it would be great if you have pointed it out and I will be grateful for that.
4743
4744sorry for the late and be sure to enjoy the ride.

4763Chapter 99 A Peaceful day in the Middle of a Certain Village
4764
4765The young new Sorcerer in the Kaellous Clan had a lot of worries on that day.
4766
4767“Let’s start with the basics first. Please try to remember the expansion script or connecting script by concentrating between the foundation script.”
4768
4769“Magister, were there so many spells used by goblins?”
4770
4771Although Ernesti was a goblin, he became the Sorcerer’s master and taught her with passion. While slightly moving his small body, he drew the script in front of her.
4772
4773The young Sorcerer quickly lost herself after seeing him drawing the small-scale script line by line. She hadn’t been looking down on it before but, it turned out to be more than she expected.
4774
4775“The foundation of magic which is used by the giants is the same as us. If you are able to learn this, we’ll continue to combine them next. Or rather, that is the most important part when using magic.”
4776
4777“Do I need to memorize this too?”
4778
4779Eru began to describe about combining to the young Sorcerer who had just desperately learned to memorize the script, the method about the most efficient magic he invented, how to draw the script precisely and a method to make the script more efficient.
4780
4781In contrast, his method was way too obscure for a titan who excels in using magic to exercise their senses. In the first place, Eru’s method was categorized as special even for a human, but there’s no way the young Sorcerer could know about that.
4782
4783Report this ad
4784
4785“This script can still be drawn in more detail. If you connect this part, you might able to increase the output.”
4786
4787“Ye, yes”
4788
4789After Eru corrected the drawing, she kept it in mind. Every day, she had headaches from remembering the script and how to combine it. It wasn’t comparable to the substantial lectures she got from the former Sorcerer.
4790
4791Eru’s method was focused heavily on the basics. He was thinking if she can remember the simple and accurate method, then later should come practical use. That’s why he strictly teaches her to memorize thoroughly.
4792
4793At this point, the young Sorcerer became teary-eyed.
4794
4795“Well then, let’s increase the scale. I’m sure the giant’s Magius Circuit is larger than ours. It should be able to operate more than this.”
4796
4797“Ah, aaahh・・・・・”
4798
4799“If you get used to this, we should able to operate more than one at the same time, let’s work hard, shall we?”
4800
4801“・・・・Eu”
4802
4803Every day after she has finished her training, the young Sorcerer would fall down exhausted.
4804
4805Eru as her teacher is quite strict. Whether it was magic or anything relating to a Silhouette Knight, it was something like a hobby for himself to investigate it, memorize it, fiddle around with it, and let it go in one strike; in short, it was what he lives for. His passion itself is a little different however.
4806
4807Even so, the young Sorcerer was desperately following him. Although, she no longer understood if she did it for her pride as a Sorcerer or as a member of her clan.
4808
4809“You can’t learn it if you only observe. It is important to put into practice what you have learned before.”
4810
4811“・・・・・! I understand. Magister, please watch me!”
4812
4813After learning the theory, next is practical use. The young Sorcerer immediately got motivated. Because it was better than forced memorization. Her senior disciple, as well as her teacher, Addy was also the one who guided her.
4814
4815“Well, then Parl-chan! Try to swoosh the movement of mana inside the body with feeling, then squeak it to gather into your hands!”
4816
4817“Magister Addy, I understand! I just need to swoosh and squeak it, right!”
4818
4819The young Sorcerer replies to her strongly, and close her upper two eyes. Fundamentally, the larger body she has, the stronger magic circuit she could have. The young Sorcerer began to process the script she just had learned quietly.
4820
4821“When operating the script, you can line up them all with a bang! And then you can just stick them one after another!”
4822
4823“I understand! Line them up・・・・・and stick them・・・・”
4824
4825Although her processing is still slow, her script was assembled one after another. Gradually, the scale was increasing to the point of becoming an Overed Spell which was comparable to a titan usage.
4826
4827“Combine the script with mana! And release it all at once!!”
4828
4829“I will, release it all at once!!”
4830
4831A crimson flaming bullet was created in the palm of her hand. A magic which had been connected to the foundation of an explosive flame script. The young Sorcerer watched with surprise as the flame that was created from a titan’s mana went flying.
4832
4833The target was a huge boulder located not too far from the village. In order to restrain themselves from blasting away the trees every time for training, they had been looking for something hard to hit. There were already a number of cracks and burns on the surface, and now, there are much more to be included.
4834
4835The flaming bullet became a bursting explosive soon after reaching the boulder. A blaze raises with a shock wave sticking on the surface of the huge boulder.
4836
4837“One more shot! Do it with a flashy move!”
4838
4839“One, more!”
4840
4841The young Sorcerer created another flame on her other hand. She lifts her hand up to the sky, and shot it once again at the huge boulder.
4842
4843Then, her rough breathing continues as she tries to keep her palm up. Although she is indeed a titan, she was too young for that. There is still lack of mana to handle an Overed Spell continuously. However, her skill has certainly improved, and so has her magical power. Despite her strict teachers, she definitely has gotten stronger because of their teaching.
4844
4845“Magister! Did you see that!!”
4846
4847“Yes, as I thought Parl has the same perception as Addy. In the first place, giants might not have known about the theory until now, so magic seems like natural for them・・・・”
4848
4849Eru began to mumble something as he crossed his arm while looking at Addy and the young Sorcerer.
4850
4851“Either way, we already can see the result of the training. If you continue this way, you might become a fine sorcerer without shaming your predecessors.”
4852
4853“・・・・! Yes. Someday when I’ve returned to the Hundred Eyes side, I’ll show this to them!”
4854
4855Still, there is one serious problem in this Eru special menu training regime. That problem is he wasn’t really familiar with the magic which had been used by the titans.
4856
4857That’s why, he was using the huge being——the Silhouette Knight’s performance as a standard.
4858
4859Thus, the young Sorcerer kept her enthusiasm in training, unaware that this was abnormal for a titan. Now, the peaceful days of the young Sorcerer have ended in another sense——.
4860
4861â—†
4862
4863While the young Sorcerer was devoting herself in magical training, the remaining Kaellous Clan’s members are practicing using the silhouette arms. They have used it in turns on the rocky place not too far from the village.
4864
4865“I never thought that we who are not Sorcerers would able to wield a magic. To think there is such a way, certainly I don’t dislike the goblin’s technique.”
4866
4867“Indeed. It was inevitable for the Rubel Clan to gain this much power”
4868
4869The third-eyed Brave looked at the boxy object on his hand while the one-eyed Servant nodded in agreement with his statement.
4870
4871Since they are deeply impressed, it can be said using Ernesti as a standard is very dangerous. Unfortunately, they haven’t known any goblins other than Eru, so there is no other person who can correct their misunderstanding.
4872
4873Report this ad
4874
4875If the enemy is strong, then they must become strong too. While tighten their mind (?), they were engulfed in training their body and mind.
4876
4877Day by day, the Kaellous Clan with Eru and Addy spent their days in the forest, furthermore in the enemy base in the relaxed state (?) without even expecting it before.
4878
4879Eventually, the young Sorcerer’s lecture focused on the practical use rather than theories, and nowadays only with Addy who was better at teaching her. The Kaellous Clan’s members are enthusiastically training with the silhouette arms and the villagers were being driven to help them.
4880
4881Eru who had a little time to spend, was now facing the new Silhouette Knight. They were offered an open-spaced house to live in. Although it was a vacant house in the beginning, many miscellaneous tools were scattered around before anyone realized it.
4882
4883With a flutter sound, Eru spread a scroll on the desk. He was using the scroll that had been made using White Mist as a material. He brought his favorite pen and wrote what he thought by adding an ink. (?)
4884
4885“There are enough materials from the remaining Ikaruga and Syrphrine. And also, from demonic beast’s materials.”
4886
4887With a scratching sound, he drew a skeletal blueprint. Looks like an Ikaruga, similar like a Syrphirne. (?) Of course, he has remembered the whole blueprint.
4888
4889“However, with the remaining crystal tissue・・・・I can build half a body at most”
4890
4891It would need only the upper body or lower body at most to make it work as a Silhouette Knight. If so, then it would be hard to imagine about fighting or even moving away.
4892
4893“No, let’s make a quite・・・・slight・・・compromise. There’s a way even if I must use the Etheric Levitator.”
4894
4895If there is an Etheric Levitator which can make any object float regardless the shape, then he can make a simple flight machine if he can prepare Magius Jet Thruster.
4896
4897Because it was possible to prepare numerous silhouette arms by using White Mist. He could probably make a Magius Jet Thruster with some effort too. But as expected, there are some fatal problems left.
4898
4899“This is not good. It’s impossible to make another Etheric Levitator. I cannot find anything in here to supply the Etherlite.”
4900
4901He stopped his hands. The problem keeps occurring in the same place. In Flemmevira Kingdom they were able to mass produce it, the reason was the existence of excellent blacksmiths and Boss that they were able to do it. For Eru, he had the knowledge but not the skill.
4902
4903“If it was only Ether, there’s plenty in here.”
4904
4905Eru who finally getting bored, leaning on his chair and stare at the air.
4906
4907“That’s right. There is ether in the atmosphere, if we collect it・・・・・collect it. Collect!?”
4908
4909He opened his eyes and kicked up the chair while trying to stand up. He slowly looked down at the drawing then pointed his shaken finger at one one point.
4910
4911“They are gathering・・・in here. Isn’t there a large amount of highly concentrated ether?”
4912
4913In regard of his answer, there is an Ether Reactor which can be said the heart of Silhouette Knight.
4914
4915“Mana Pool・・・・!”
4916
4917The Silhouette Knight that had gathered the ether will transform it into mana with the work of the furnace. The crystal tissue will absorb the stored mana, and by consuming it the Silhouette Knight can be driven. Conversely speaking it would be——.
4918
4919“Mana is an excited state of ether. Then, if I can convert mana back to ether・・・・I can use a big ether filter on the Silhouette Knight body・・・・!!”
4920
4921The idea that appeared like a comet, ran through his brain to the body then flowed to the fingertips. He grabbed a pen and drew the idea like the ink was flying away.
4922
4923“How about it? What should I do? I can do it. I will do everything from what I can afford.”
4924
4925A strange shape has been produced. It doesn’t need various functions, but his thoughts were reflected to the form.
4926
4927“Please wait a little longer my Ikaruga. It may become a little ‘weird’ but・・・・・since we’re fighting, it would be okay right?”
4928
4929Eru held the scroll up high and showed a cheerful smile.
4930
4931â—†
4932
4933Eru came to Addy and the young Sorcerer who was still in training without being noticed. The young Sorcerer wondered if he wanted to teach her something new but it seemed that was not the case.
4934
4935Then noticing the young Sorcerer beforehand, and take out Addy with him. As he keeps his head and goes straight to the cart direction. On the scattered wreckage, Eru began to turn his back. (?)
4936
4937“I have a request for Addy”
4938
4939“What’s with the formalities? If it’s Eru’s request, everything is fine!”
4940
4941“Err. Please hear me out first”
4942
4943“Okay～”
4944
4945Although she had already embraced Eru, well, it always been like this for now.
4946
4947“Actually, I want to dismantle Addy’s Descend Gear (Descend Rad)”
4948
4949She was wondering what it was, but his request seemed unexpected to her. She blinked her eyes in bewilderment, she looked at Eru in her arms and tilted her head to the side.
4950
4951“Why? It’s not like we don’t need to use it・・・・again, right?”
4952
4953“Yes, of course. This is a valuable weapon for us. If we could, I want to leave it as it is but・・・・”
4954
4955After being stranded in the Bocuse sea of trees, the Descend Rad’s strength has successfully led them in housing problem (?) and there may be many situations where it can still be used if they think carefully. Naturally, he didn’t think to give it up in a meaningless way.
4956
4957“I have made a new design. To make it, I would like to teach the people in this village our technology.”
4958
4959Eru who had pulled out from Addy’s arms said that in the front of her face.
4960
4961“Although the Descend Rad has a simple design, it still uses the technology in our Silhouette Knights.”
4962
4963“I see. It would be easier to understand if they can actually see it right・・・”
4964
4965“I didn’t want to break it that much but・・・・I’m sure, it would be difficult. They have to learn it by their hand rather than their eyes after all.”
4966
4967Addy closed her eyes for a while. As its owner, she might be sentimental about it. Eventually, she raises her face with a smile.
4968
4969“Yeah, I’m fine! We have to fix Ikaruga and Shii-chan, right!”
4970
4971“Thank you, Addy. I promise to fix it back. Even though it may be different from before, I will make it to able to move again.”
4972
4973Thus, Ernesti Eru Echavalier had begun to move. In his blueprint, a man-made monster comparable to the demonic beast that live in the forest was starting to move.

5000Chapter 100 Just a Little Longer to The Sky
5001
5002Bocuse Sea of Trees, a forest where the countless trees grow thickly.
5003
5004There are many beast trails because of the demonic beast that have an enormous body walking slowly through on this forest. For a demonic beast that surpassed the duel class category, leaving path by tearing the trees on its way was an easy task. While the surviving plants evolved themselves to stretch their stem higher until the branches have reach at the height where the demonic beast cannot touch them and spread their leaves thickly. Thus, the beast trails in the Bocuse was shaped like a tunnel made by tree’s leaf.
5005
5006In that natural tunnel formed by the trees, there was a huge shadow walking. Stand on its own feet, and shaped like a human being. But, no one couldn’t think it was something other than a titan.
5007
5008Unlike titan in the Kaellous or even Rubel Clan, this kind of titan’s ‘imitation’ have a kind of mechanical form, oddly-thickish long arm that rubbed on the ground, and a rounded shoulder like an aged farmer usually do. Their neck was also not clearly separated from their body and there is a pointed head-like shape on the tip of their torso. When the small head move with a clacking sound, several small eyes sharply searching around the surrounding. Furthermore, the whole body is covered with an armor leaving no space for a softest part to be shown.
5009
5010It’s looks like a titan wearing such an armor or even appear like a living being who have a shell on the body. Truly, a mysterious being.
5011
5012There are five of them. Going through the natural tunnel without difficulties. Eventually that titan’s imitation went through the forest tunnel and arrive at the open hill. When the small eyes blink over the place in the corner of the forest, a village where the goblin lives can be seen.
5013
5014Soon, the titans’ imitation noticed. In the middle of the village, there is a glimpse of huge presence between the trees.
5015
5016There is a titan in the goblin village. Not a fake one but a real titan.
5017
5018The titans’ imitation who had noticed that, began to leak a growling sound. Eventually they start to go downhill together. And their target is a certain goblin’s village——.
5019
5020â—†
5021
5022“Oh, it’s Eru-kun! Guess what, would you like to see Parl-chan’s training today with me・・・・what are you doing?”
5023
5024Adeltrud who had undergoing training with the young Sorcerer day by day, on her way she found and called Ernesti out. Although she always has joyful appearances, soon turn into doubtful looks. For some reason, Eru had brought a cart full of wooden boards.
5025
5026“Yes, since I want to prepare this board for everyone, I’ll carve the emblem glyph from now on. Although the glyph requires quite a bit of space・・・・would Addy mind to help me too?”
5027
5028“Eh?・・・・Err. You see, I still have to teach Parl-chan after all!”
5029
5030“I see. I’m sorry to leave her to you all this time”
5031
5032Addy retreated immediately after seeing the wooden boards were bulkier than Eru’s height. No matter how much she loves him, apparently, it seems there’s still have a limit. Meanwhile Eru began to nods in agreement without bothering anything.
5033
5034Behind Addy, there’s a confident young Sorcerer while her four eyes sparkling.
5035
5036“I do not mind, Magister Eru. Magister Addy has taught me well. Someday, I will show you the result of my training”
5037
5038“I’m eager to see that happens. In my case, there’s still lot of work though”
5039
5040“I see you have made a lot of thing, recently”
5041
5042Said Addy while looking at the back of the cart. Even though no one who can stop Eru when he was working on something. This time, he has made something big again.
5043
5044“Yeah, I caught on something very interesting this time! After all I have・・・・”
5045
5046“Err, Eru-kun! Look, you can explain that later, okay?”
5047
5048That’s surely will be long. Addy splendidly know too well how to avoid it.
5049
5050“Hm. That’s right. Fufufu, I’m sure Addy will be surprised after seeing it”
5051
5052“So, it would make me surprised too・・・・I got feeling Eru-kun’s brake already flew away in ages”
5053
5054Thus, Addy and the young Sorcerer went to forest leaving the place where a dry laugh can be heard.
5055
5056Because of the forest area near the village was already destroyed remarkably by the Kaellous Clan, their training ground are also gradually separated away from the village.
5057
5058“Yeah, it seems I can’t lose too. I’ll make it with my fullest!”
5059
5060Eru who just had left behind, excitedly leaking out the ‘Physical Boost’ on his limbs and run toward the workshop while nimbly dragging the cart.
5061
5062â—†
5063
5064There’s one goblin’s village on the corner of great forest. Not too long ago, this village, which only had to spend their days by waiting their lifespan, now they are in the middle of unprecedented heat.
5065
5066The center of the heat is located on the back of the village and known as the only workshop they have. This place was also used for making the titan’s armor, because of that, it has exceptionally large space and well-equipped.
5067
5068The men who live in this village were mostly working on this workshop. Once in the past, they had to process the metal and demonic beast’s materials as a duty.
5069
5070“What’s going on with this. I should have remembered all of this・・・・”
5071
5072“What a complex structure. Were all of this assembled on this scale?”
5073
5074“Look carefully at the assembling process. We have no future if we don’t make ourselves useful for knight-sama”
5075
5076Right now, every one of them are trying to get close with a huge wreckage.
5077
5078That were the wreckages of Silhouette Knight which have been carried by the Kaellous Clan; Ikaruga and Syrphirne.
5079
5080Beside them, there’s a half-remained dissembled Descend Rad. And they are eagerly used it as a real object to master their skill. Because their lives will be greatly changed on the future depend on the result they have got in here. Just like before, they couldn’t help themselves to let their live in half-dead hunger state anymore. In order to not let that happen again, every one of them were desperate.
5081
5082“Line up those similar parts”
5083
5084“Prioritize the useable part first! Make sure to send the broken ones to the furnace!”
5085
5086Next to men’s heavy laborers, the group of women are also busily moving around by collecting and sorting each part which had been dissembled. Granted, their job is not only to dissemble after all.
5087
5088“Wow. In the back of the armor, almost all of them are Crystal Plates”
5089
5090Peeling the huge armor by using chisel, and tearing off the back part. All of these were from Syrphirne. While Ikaruga have nothing but the heart part after losing from the Stained Beast.
5091
5092The cutting-edge Silhouette Knight technology in Fremmevira Kingdom are utilizing Capacity Frame on part of the armor. That is a simple combination of an armor and crystal plates, a method to increase mana pool, and it was easy to made with a little alchemy knowledge. For that reason, the materials were carefully separated.
5093
5094Then, after all parts have been dissembled.
5095
5096“Knight-sama, what should we do after this?”
5097
5098The men who remained in the workshop are lined up in the front of the small ‘knight’. Around them, the workshop’s floor is filled with a large amount of steel and demonic beast’s materials which had been dissembled and stored all this time.
5099
5100In the middle of them, there are an offal-like object and hardened metal pipes. It is Ikaruga’s Emperor Heart, which remains untouched.
5101
5102“First. We will use this heart. While repairing the exhaust tubes, let’s reinforce the surrounding area”
5103
5104This heart part is the innermost Silhouette Knight technology, which can be said it was impossible to reproduce it again.
5105
5106If this part was damaged even a little, Eru shouldn’t able left unscratched. However, because of this, Eru can continue to walk again once more.
5107
5108By following Eru’s order, the villagers start moving in unison. From now on, their battle has just begun.
5109
5110“Please bring the firmest demonic beast’s bone here”
5111
5112Around the heart part, a number of demonic beast’s bone are combined. On this area, sturdiness is prioritized more than anything. That also the reason why they had to made the small steel, and strong bone materials. Although, originally a Silhouette Knight must have a flexibility in movement, but this time the idea making Silhouette Knight more flexible has not to take into account.
5113
5114In addition, the White Mist wood that has been cut out like a thread, are included on the gap.
5115
5116This is the Silver Nerve alternative.
5117
5118Without using any Crystal Tissue, anything can be used if the object does not move and able to passes through enough mana.
5119
5120This processes steadily build up which make someone fainted if those blacksmith people back in the country see it.
5121
5122“How is the limbs condition?”
5123
5124“Knight-sama. I’ve tried as far I know but・・・・・”
5125
5126After building the body which had been made by materials like from mysterious pot, the neck and arms are attached. In here, the mechanism for movement was included.
5127
5128Unlike the body that must have to be firm, these sections are require more labor. After all their skill are still naïve. They must have to lower the difficulties as much as possible.
5129
5130As expected, the demonic beast’s bone is usable on the inner skeleton, and the Strand Crystal Tissue based on the Descend Rad’s blueprints has been attached carefully.
5131
5132“Because it would be dangerous if we fail, so let’s test it carefully”
5133
5134A cheer come from Eru surrounding when he tried to show the temporary fixed arms in the uncovered pilot seat. Little by little, the knight has formed to the shape by their own hands. When they think who lives in the lower villages couldn’t do anything, now they have grasped the power to challenge the forest. How could they able to stand still after this. With that spirit, their morale has increased.
5135
5136“Let’s increase a little more firmness. If we keep going like this, we would able to completed this soon. So, let’s do our best until we’ve finished!”
5137
5138With a loud high-spirited voice, the workshop has been filled by a strong cry.
5139
5140â—†
5141
5142And then, while the villagers were working desperately. Meanwhile Eru had to carve the Emblem Glyph on the White Mist’s board with full of concertation.
5143
5144“At any rate, I still need a strong aerial operation. Let’s just divide the Sonic Boom magic and borrow from the fundamental script”
5145
5146He uses the arrayed wooden boards to build up a magic which belongs to wind element.
5147
5148Although no matter how much powerful it is, if using combustion type of propulsion, certainly Magi Jet Thruster was more efficient. Nevertheless, he has decided to choose the wind propulsion without blinking his eyes on the others.
5149
5150“Gotta make many Amplifier script and many and many and more, more, more, more, more”
5151
5152While singing some absurd song, Eru continues carving the script. Because it was too eerie, let alone the villagers, even Addy was keeping her distance.
5153
5154Leaving that aside.
5155
5156The time has passed, the terrific wooden board’s glyph which can draw out destructive power have been lined up.
5157
5158In a simple term, the output can match or even exceeding the Gordesleo’s Blast Howling. If someone used this thing, it would even erase a half dead demonic beast in one hit.
5159
5160However, more terrifyingly. This is not a weapon to attack.
5161
5162“Well then, will it go well with this output?”
5163
5164Eru who still remained in good mood, connecting the line on the middle of the airframe. Ikaruga’s heart was still alive. It still possible to process some mana at any time.
5165
5166The Behemoth’s Heart which had awoken from a long time, began to generating large amount of mana while filly sucking the air. While the villager turned their eyes to the source of loud sound that shakes the workshop, only Eru who pleasantly gazing the wooden board.
5167
5168“・・・・Reconverting large amount of mana. Release the Ether”
5169
5170The radiance of overflowing mana, flowing through the carved glyph on the wooden board. And that faint light eventually turned into rainbow color. Producing a rainbow vortex. Painting a rainbow light on the stunned Eru’s smile.
5171
5172“Fufufu・・・・・as I expected. Marvelous, truly marvelous. Well then, it seems you are able to move properly, my next beloved one”
5173
5174It has deviant half-baked body as a Silhouette Knight. Including the terrifying magic. And the beast he wished for has gradually formed to shape.
5175
5176Then, he suddenly realizes something and fold his arm.
5177
5178“I know! Isn’t this a whole different form than Ikaruga. If so, I need to think a name for this new machine. What should I do・・・・・”
5179
5180Thus, he began to tilt his head, while humming a song mixed with troubled expression.
