Black Summoner - Chapter 90

Chapter 90: King of Giants

Crest Forest / East End

“Stupid, they aren´t really girls and children…”

It’s no wonder Wolfred is confused. Rion is natural, but Melfina is also a girl who looks less than 20. She isn’t so, but he couldn’t believe the fact that Trisen’s proud Hybrid beast group was destroyed.

“Oh, oh …”

The fear of soldiers is unusual. What did you say of the battle that took place on the front lines? The dignified girl with blue hair smiles like a saint.

“Thank you for your guidance. Thanks to you, I was able to reach this point without getting lost.”

“It was the correct decision to leave it to Sara and follow him.”

“Did you intentionally let this guy escape and followed him …!”

The monster lying down there is “Big ground Bird”. Although it is a bird-shaped monster whose wings are degenerated and cannot fly, it is faster than a horse in terms of running speed on the ground. The agility and speed of the fleeing soldier mounted on that Big Ground Bird have been crushed by the chasing girl… Wolfred abandoned his hesitation, not to be fooled by their appearance.

“Giant king, don’t let your guard down turn them into fine dust. Think of them as the family’s enemy!”

The whip hits and squeezes the giant’s fighting spirit. The giant growls low and moves forward thumping the earth.

“It’s even bigger when you look closer. Isn’t there a wall made by Kel-nii?”

“Hmm, you can fight as it is, but that’s right …”

Melfina put her hand on her chin and made an annoying gesture. Rion looked into Melfina’s face with a sword in her hand, asking, “Why don’t we fight?”

[Rion, try to defeat this monster with your power.]

[Eh … just us?]

[Yes. The enemies you have fought so far have been somewhat inadequate. Even if you beat someone weaker than you, you are not really strong. Would you like to be recognized by your brother as soon as possible?]

[……Yup.]

[If you can beat it, let’s clear it up and recognize you as a full-fledged adventurer. I will refrain from treating you as a child as much as possible.]

[It’s not going to stop…]

For some reason, everyone understands Rion’s abilities. However, there is concern about whether it can be demonstrated in an actual battle that has become extreme. Like Luca, she is a younger sister-like existence of the mansion, but should I call it a fear of the consequences? This is especially true within the party.

[That monster is probably S-class strong. Can you still do it?]

[… I can do it. Every day, I’ve been beaten by Gerald for swordsmanship and Kel-nii for magic and I hate it.]

Rion’s talent as a hero is out of the standard. While the status enhanced by the level-up is the same, the “courage” skill acquired as Kelvin gives her an unshakeable mental strength (except for physical characteristics).

She was able to endure the most rigorous training because she wanted to protect everyone. It’s such a simple reason.

[I know Rion’s efforts. All right, if you can put out your strength, you will surely win.]

Rion was relieved by Melfina’s soft voice. Like Kelvin, Melfina was one she respected. That alone cleared Rion’s mind.

[Yup! Well then, let’s go!]

A little time after the giant came forward, Rion also started to move.

(Is she alone …!? Suck it!)

Wolfred doubted his eyes. Because the girl in black, light clothes went out alone in front of the S-class monster. The girl’s one-handed sword is well trained. However, she is still a B-class. She may be good until now, but to this Giant king, she can’t scratch its steel-like skin.

(The moment you touch it, it will break from the root! You should regret it after you break your beloved sword!)

Hit by the whip again, the giant screamed and ran towards Rion. A tough gray body was fired like a bullet. It was agility that cannot be imagined from its huge size.

“Go, Giant king!! “

“I’m going!”

Rion disappeared from Wolfred’s view.

(Where is she!?)

From no preparatory movement, Rion reached the maximum speed at once. Rion’s agility status had already surpassed that of Sara and Melfina. It’s just that she is saving it because it’s not sustainable. But even Rion, who moved at that speed was caught by the Giant king.

The giant’s right arm swings while rushing. The aim is exactly where Rion is, diagonally to the right of the giant. The moment the fist touches the ground, the ground cracks, and the trees that existed there sink into the large hole. Its power is not on the ratio of the Grave Death Ogre. If you look down from the sky, you can see that the Crest forest has lost some of its trees.

“It’s amazing power!”

“Huh! Avoided … huh!?”

Rion admired, and Wolfred was astonished when he heard her voice and locates her. Rion not only avoided the giant’s attack but also ran up his swayed arm to the giant’s torso.

“Alex!”

Alex, who was hiding in the shadow of Rion, also appeared. It’s late at night, and there are many shadows in this forest formed by a slight moonlight. He cut through the giant with his sharp fangs and claws, and the giant also slams his palm against his body in an attempt to fight back. However, Alex has disappeared into a new shadow.

Gagagatsu!

(But it’s shallow)

It was only a thin scratch in the skin. There was no blood from the giant’s gray skin.
(The skin is thicker than I expected. Then …)

While the giant was concentrating on Alex, Rion quickly reached his head, gaining momentum and swinging the sword down on the giant’s head.

Gakin!

The sword broke just as Wolfred expected. The sword wasn’t durable enough. The name of this sword was “Strengthened Mithril Sword”. It was a reforged weapon of the sword that Kelvin borrowed from Kasher, but that didn’t seem to work for this giant.

The attacked giant also turns his eyes to it and shifts the target to Rion.

“Take that!” (TN. Thanks to Mio and Phillip for the help.)

“And it was done!”

Wolfred and his soldiers rejoiced when Rion’s sword broke. However, Melfina was looking at her with pity.

(It’s okay to be absorbed in it, but you’ve completely forgotten about me. Now that the giant is fighting Rion, you’re vulnerable … well, that’s not Rion’s test. But…)

Wolfred and the rest were unaware that there was an ice wall behind them. Melfina secretly tried to prevent them from escaping, but she began to think that she didn’t need it.

(Who said that Rion has only one sword?)

Rion, who lost her sword and had both hands empty, continued to avoid the giant’s attack. Sometimes she changes her trajectory with air steps, sometimes kill its power and travels along the giant’s body. Alex also saw a chance and attacked, but the giant decided that it was harmless, and completely ignored it.
(It’s not good. If it hit me even once, I’ll die instantly. As Kel-nii says, it’s good to have the courage skill.)

Rion saw the shadow where Alex last hide.

[Alex, Clotho, I’ll match you!]

A small Clotho pops out from Rion’s arm guard. He then spat out three new swords from the storage. Two in Rion’s hands and one in Alex’s shadow.

“Gow!”

Rion landed on the giant’s right arm, and Alex, who caught the sword from the shadow with his mouth, landed on the giant left arm. All three swords gave off a strange atmosphere.

“Now what, dual wielding!? But that skill should only be handled by heroes!?”

“Eh, is that so? I don’t know, but it was normally listed in the skill column …. But we’re not doing dual wielding.”

Rion and Alex hold the swords.

“The human-wolf is a three-sword style!”

Yeah, Melfina smiled with satisfaction when she saw Rion and Alex who decided to pose.
