113 – Fairy’s Song
“aaah!!!”
“Here we come again, again!!!”
“Stop it with all your might!!!”
“What are you blocking!? If you don’t want to be left behind, dodge right away!!!”
“You idiots! Don’t stop casting magic!!! The Saiger guy is coming this way!!!”
Hail of human-sized rocks falling from the sky onto one’s head.
An arrow like Krysia’s ballista that fires almost once per second.
Deuka’s javelin, although noticeably slower than the others, takes exactly one life every time it is fired.
Once the magic projection stopped, Jesar narrowed the distance in a straight line.
When all of this was throwing the students of the Tricolor Alliance into confusion and fear.
“──Come to your senses!!!”
The students’ agitation was instantly blown away by the girl’s sharp rebuke that echoed directly in their heads.
And without missing that moment, the girl’s instructions quickly followed.
“Rocks falling from the sky are not as threatening as you might think! If you look closely, they only fall randomly, and less than 10% of them actually fall directly on you! Magic 3rd Division! You read the trajectory of rocks falling from the sky and follow your colleagues. Use magic to intercept only the rocks that might fall on you!”
“Ah, I understand!”
“Ballistas can also be offset if a mid-level or higher warrior gives their all! The 1st warrior unit should take full charge of ballistas from now on!”
“I understand!”
“The survivors of the 4th Magic Division and the 5th Magic Division must guard against javelins! Use fire magic to create a mirage and water magic to create thick fog, and wind magic to create turbulence to reduce the hit rate as much as possible! Although you are hit by a single blow, If you don’t, the treatment unit can help you recover!”
“Lose!”
“The 1st and 2nd Shooting Divisions will join Jesar Cyger’s efforts to fill in the gaps left by the magic division!”
“Leave it to me!”
The students regained their composure and began to move again as the command continued to resonate.

“If this is the case, the damage will not increase in the future… However, the consumption of stamina and magical power will rapidly accelerate. This state can be maintained for the next 20 minutes… No, about 10 minutes. In that case…”
Le Kai, who was quickly shaking his head while muttering at the sight, raised his eyebrows and shouted at the top students of the Three Color Alliance.
“Aness. Please take charge of Chrysia Greenwood. If she can be defeated, that’s fine, but if not, at least give her time.”
“Hmph! Don’t ignore me! This time, I will definitely defeat that woman and prove that I am the best archer in her first year!”
As soon as the instructions were given, a wild girl jumped from the castle wall and ran beyond the forest, shooting down Chrysia’s arrow.
“Minor, Aren. You are Jesar Cyger!”
“…hehehe. Is that guy again this time… If I’m going to fight, I want to fight someone who’s eye candy like Greenwood or Sylvest…”
“Miner’s words and actions are always so, so she’s always being told by other women that she’s in a bad mood behind her back.”
“You’re lying…, Isn’t it…?”
“Isn’t the fact that Minor, despite being the Viscount’s second son and having reached the level of a superman, still not had a fiancé is the clearest proof of all?”
“Such…Stupid…!!!”
“(There were some fire foxes that were approaching… But it’s a secret that I chased them away. How dare you tell my minor.)”
“…Huh? What did you say?”
“No? I didn’t say anything? Didn’t I hear you wrong?”
A short blond-haired man with a sturdy build and a black-haired man with a slightly slender build moved toward the castle gate.
Le Kai, who sent them off, smiled and looked back at Jin Park Shin standing next to him and said.
“Ah, Jin. You are Deuka Pike. Be sure to defeat him or I will sell the ring I gave you to a pawn shop.”
“Isn’t this extremely unreasonable for small people!?”
“Don’t complain because it’s a sign of my trust and love for you.”
“That certificate is in danger of being sold!?”
“Oh, I’ll sell it even if I can’t defeat it within 5 minutes.”
“Time limit!?”
“1, 2, 3….”
“Oooooh!!! Now is the time to enter the realm of sound!!!”
As the girl slowly started counting with her fingers, Jin Park Shin, who was frightened, ran at such a speed that even an afterimage remained.

Miner Brow, a man with short blond hair, and Aren Egger, a man with black hair, climbed onto the castle wall and observed Jesar, who was gradually closing the distance.
“If I can defeat that guy who is in second place in my grade right away, I’m sure my popularity will explode with the other girls! This is the perfect opportunity to start my harem plan against Minor!”
“I think that the plan that has no possibility of being realized and the pitiful brains of Minor who came up with the plan are very good.”
“Sweet!!! Anyway, Aren!!! Let’s go!”
“Ah… Let’s become one, Minor.”
Pajik-
When Minor heard those words, blood vessels appeared in her head and she vented her anger towards Aren.
“You…!!! I’ve told you so many times in the past not to make that unconscious homo speech and behavior!!! Because you always say and do things like that, the kids in my class misunderstand that we’re really homos…!! !!”
“Why do you think it’s a misunderstanding?”
“…Huh?”
“Ah. Look at that, Minor. We have to be quick. Otherwise, Jesar Saiger will reach the castle wall.”
“Huh? No…, Uh…? I heard you say that’s not important…!?”
“It’s late. Go quickly.”
Puck-
Aren kicked Minor, who was about to say something, and made him fall under the castle wall.
“Wow!!! [Giant]!!!!!”
The new model of the minor that was falling off began to grow in an instant.
──Boom!!!
What appeared with a heavy crash sound, like a small earthquake… Despite his one-kneeling posture, he was such a huge ‘giant’ that his eyes were in the same position as the 10-metre-high castle walls.
When the giant bent his knees, his size reached a whopping 17 meters.
The giant looked down at Aren, who was smiling brightly on the castle wall, and shouted in anger.
“Areeenn──!!! What are you doing──!!!”
Even though she was directly hit by a loud and threatening shout that made her whole body tremble, Aren’s smile did not waver in the slightest.
“I had no choice because the minor was late.”
“That’s why you kick someone off the castle wall?!”
“Ah, okay. I was wrong. As an apology, I’ll buy you a special meal worth 1000 points from the Valhalla restaurant that Minor wanted to eat last time, so stop getting angry.”
“…I can’t help it. I’ll just accept it.”
“…I like that it’s easy and simple.”
“Hmm? What did you say? I misheard because my senses are dulled in my giant state.”
“It’s no big deal. By the way, keep your head down. It’s hard to ride.”
“Ah.”
Minor bowed her head at Aren’s words.
Aren jumped high from her spot and hung on Minor’s neck.
“Then let’s begin, Aren.”
“Yes. It’s a ‘combiner’.”
Miner activated Brauga’s blood system function, .
Pud! Pudduk-!
The muscles beneath the giant’s tough skin began to explosively increase in volume.
Brauga’s blood system function dramatically increases strength and durability, while significantly lowering agility and stamina.
Miner’s body, which was already muscular, has now turned into a fierce body, as if it were wearing thick muscle armor.
And on top of the muscle armor, Aren added an additional layer of armor.
“[Iron Armor] Maximum output.”
Aren Egger’s Gift, [Iron Armor B]
The ability covers the user’s entire body with armor made of ‘ultra-heavy compressed iron’, which has enormous durability.
The armor at maximum output is over 2 meters thick, and even Aren, the gift holder, cannot even move when he puts it on. It is covered with iron armor weighing ‘several tons’… ….
“…Whew. It’s just the right weight.”
For Minor, who displayed [Giantization] And , It was just the weight of wearing heavy armor.
[Giantization], [Iron Armor], And Provide enormous strength, enormous durability, and violence with a mass exceeding several tons.
This is why two people who are measured as Tier 2 by users when using each other are raised to Tier 1 when they are used together.
“”【Combined Machine: Super Heavy Armored Giant (超重鐵甲巨人)】””
The two of them in their current state were literally at a level where they could fight head-on with the black iron giant, the dungeon boss that Seonwoo Lee had previously fought.
Boom! Thud-! Thud-!
The iron-clad giant stretched out his heavy feet and started running.
As if to prove the weight of several tons, deep footprints were engraved on the hard ground.
The huge stride length of over 10 meters per step quickly narrowed the distance to Jesar to the point where the agility stat, which had dropped to D grade, was insignificant.
Jessar was targeted by the charge of a giant with enough power to turn him into a lump of blood with just a single touch.
“Ha. You’re finally here!!!”
He smiled cruelly.
“But, I’m really sorry… But it seems like I’m not your opponent this time.”
An unusual magical power emanated from Jesar, who had a truly regretful expression.
“Instead, as an apology, I will generously show you our ‘hidden badge’.”
Having said that, Jesar placed his hand on his heart.
“Taboo (禁技)──[Physical overload]”
He used [Overload] Not with his sword as usual, but with his own body itself.
──Duuung!
A sound like a giant drum rang out, and at the same time, a blue line was engraved on Jesar’s entire body.
… No, it wasn’t a line, it was gold.
Crack that occurs when the body cannot withstand excessive magical energy and collapses.
As if it were proof, a haze of magic so dense that it became tangible began to seep out from between the cracks.
“This technique maximizes all physical abilities, but it is a dangerous technique that causes my body to explode if the control of magical power is even slightly off.”
It looked dangerous, like a glass that would shatter if you even touched it….
The person in charge was very calm.
“It’s an extremely high-risk technology, but the return is just as big…!!!”
Boom!
The moment when Jesar stamped his foot loudly.
His new form disappeared, leaving behind only deep footprints and blue magical smoke.
Minor, who had missed his target, quickly looked around.
“Uh, where?!”
“Here it is!!!”
The place where Jesar appeared was right below the giant that was about 50 meters away.
Jesar smiled fiercely as he watched the giant’s feet fall on his head and swung his sword with all his might.
“Wow!?”
A minor who suddenly loses his balance while running, one foot rising high in the sky due to the shock as if a land mine exploded under his feet.
Sigh-!!!
And next to him, there was Jesar, who was spinning at high speed, making full use of his body’s already maximized abilities.
“Hmm!!!”
Jessar put all his strength and rotational power into one sword, so that several blue lines were added to his arms, and struck Minor.
“Fly!!!!!!”
The moment when Jesar struck the sword. Bang! And the sword filled with Jesar’s magic exploded, increasing its power.
Jesar’s full-body blow was not enough to literally crush the giant’s armor, but was so powerful that it sent the giant’s torso weighing several tons flying far away.
“To blow that giant all the way to the forest where the elf woman is… Despite his pretty appearance, he seems to be crazier on the inside than I am! I like it so much!”
Jesar, who landed on the floor, chuckled as he remembered his man giving him such absurd instructions.
“Come on…Now let’s go wild!”
Jesar rushed towards the castle wall, his bewildered expression evident, his blue magic haze flying.
******
In the forest not far from the fortress.
Chrissia and Agnes, a girl dressed in wild clothes, were confronting each other.
“What’s wrong, Greenwood? Unlike the last time we fought, you’re just defending!”
As Agnes said, Chrysia used the trees around her as a wall and took a passive stance, shooting down only the arrows that were likely to reach her.
However, Agnes, who was pushing forward, was feeling uncomfortable, as if there were bugs crawling on her back.
‘… ‘Those eyes.’
Aness, who had followed her father, the leader of the ranger unit, since she was young, realized that Greenwood’s eyes were those of a hunter looking for a decisive opportunity.
Agnes clicked her tongue and increased her magical power even more.
“I don’t know what they’re aiming for! It doesn’t matter as long as we crush them like this!”
The moment when Agnes fired the above series of shots and tried to corner Chrysia.
Finch-
Krysia’s ears twitched as if they sensed something about her.
“Sigh!”
Krishia ran behind her with all her might.
Right after that.
──Kwagwagwagwang!!!
A huge giant suddenly flew in and fell between the two, toppling the dense trees like dominoes.
“Wow!? What?! What’s going on?! …Huh?! Minor and Aren?! Why are you guys flying here!?
“Opportunity!”
Unlike Agnes, who was confused, Chrysia’s eyes lit up as if she had been waiting, and she grabbed a handful of unusual-looking arrows from her quiver.
He pinned her to the ground, drawing a circle around her.
And placing the bow made from the branches of her World Tree in the center of her circle, Krysia poured all her magical energy into her bow, while at the same time granting her own Gift [Her Tree Dominion] Used as her maximum output.
Guuu!!!!
A powerful wave of magical power emanated from Krysia.
A category of output so enormous that the amount of magic power spurted out per second is equivalent to all of Krysia’s magic power.
Originally, it would have caused magical exhaustion long ago.
Thanks to the gift of [Tree Ruler], Which allows her to freely share her magic power from the surrounding trees, Kryshia was able to use magic power that far exceeded her original magic power.
Closing her eyes and concentrating, Krysia began to sing in a forgotten language that has not even been recorded in modern times.
“■■■■■■──(One of the twelve roots that worship the sacred tree, I pray in the name of Greenwood──)”
From Noble mtl dot com
It is the language of the High Elves, which only two people in the world know, she and her mother.
The magic power soaring in the air began to dance to Krysia’s song and be drawn into the bow and arrow.
Wow!
The arrows and bows, absorbing powerful magical power, began to emit a resonant sound.
“Where…!!!”
Aness immediately fired arrows at the sight, which was unusual for anyone to see….
T-di-di-ding-!!!
“What…!?”
The arrow was swept away by the endless surge of magic power and bounced around helplessly.
“■■■■■■──. (The one that appears is one of the twelve guardian beasts that protect the sacred tree.)”
Chrissia continued chanting without even paying attention to the arrows bouncing off.
“Mineooooo! Areeen! Wake up quickly! Hurry up and attack! I don’t know what it is, but something dangerous is coming!!!”
“──Uooooo!!!”
Due to Agnes’ screaming cry and the threatening magic felt from Krysia, her iron-clad giant forced her body, which was still in shock, to move.
Kugung-! Coogung-!
A giant who stumbles but walks straight towards Krysia.
“■■■■■■── (The deep green gardener, the embodiment of regeneration and circulation, the honest and kind giant of the willow tree.)”
Krishia closes her eyes and does not stop chanting.
“Oooh!!!”
A giant’s blunt and heavy fist swung with the aim in mind.
Just as it was about to crush the delicate fairy.
“──Come, Wicker Man.”
──The fairy’s song has ended.
