Chapter 129 - Magic Sword

 

　The advancing Uruk army has cut off its movement and is preparing for a camp.

 

　This camp is quite a task.

 

　They have to feed a camp of several thousand people and get some sleep.

 

　But this is not the same as camping out in a field.

 

　It requires a great deal of preparation.

 

　They have to make beds and prepare food.

 

　Because of this work, they stopped moving while it was still relatively early in the day and started preparing a camp.

 

　I watched their movements from afar with binoculars, guessing where they were by the movement of people and objects.

 

"It looks like they're distributing food and other supplies in several places, but they're all gathered in the center of the army."

 

"We're going to attack at night, right? Ars, are you planning to go after the food over there?"

 

"Yeah, that's right, Baito-nii. What good is an army if it can't eat?"

 

"But they'll be on their guard. Are you sure?"

 

"If I can ride the Valkyrie and run straight to the pantry, I'll be successful, but depending on how alert they are, I may not be able to get that close..."

 

"I'll burn down the tents over there then. It would be nice if we could take out some knights."

 

"Well, let's be flexible. It's easier to set fires with this.

 

　I put my hand on the sword on my hip while talking to my older brother.

 

　Now I have two weapons.

 

　One is the Hard-fang Sword I've been using since the Barca uprising.

 

　The other is the Nine-Tailed Sword that Carlos gave me when I defeated a cavalry general named Keima of the House of Uruk in battle recently.

 

　The Nine-Tailed Sword is a magic sword that, like the Ice Spirit Sword handed down in the Fontana lineage, when mana is poured into it, flames in the shape of a sword appear.

 

　The only difference is that the Ice Spirit Sword was made of ice, which is a massive substance that forms the shape of a sword, so the ice that appeared could be used to cut down the opponent.

 

　The Nine-Tailed Sword, however, is not like that.

　I don't know what the mechanism behind it is, but it only takes the shape of a sword, and flames are flames without any material weight.

 

　It could not be used as a sword against another sword but had the characteristic of slashing with flames.

 

　However, I tried to use it myself with mana, and I was glad that I didn't confront this Nine-Tailed Sword with my sword at first sight.

 

　To put it bluntly, I think it's a much stronger weapon than the Ice Spirit Sword.

 

　The flames that appear in the shape of a sword when you put mana into it are just masses of heat that are not solid like the ice on the Ice Spirit Sword.

 

　In other words, if I had been deceived by the shape of the sword and had tried to fight it with my Hard-fanged Sword, the flames of my opponent would have slipped through the sword and attacked me.

 

　In short, the part of the flaming sword that appears when mana is poured into the Nine-Tailed Sword is an attack that cannot be defended against.

 

　The only way to prevent damage was to keep avoiding the flames, which was a terrifying characteristic.

 

"It's really foul of them to have had such a sword, isn't it?"

 

"Yes, it is. But I think it is not without its flaws, Baito-nii."

 

"Flaws? It's stronger than the Hard-fang Sword, no matter how you look at it."

 

"I think the Hard-fang Sword is pretty good too. It's a very durable weapon and is very reliable. The Nine-Tailed Sword is less fuel efficient than the Ice Spirit Sword. Maybe the downside is that you can't produce a flaming sword for a long time."

 

"So, if I have to fight with a sword, I'll have to avoid it while it's flaming and aim for my opponent to run out of mana. In the end, the opponent has the advantage, right Ars?"

 

"'Well, it's a bit incompatible with the Hard-fang Sword. If I had the Ice Spirit Sword, the difference in ice cold air and reach would have allowed me to deal with the flaming sword."

 

"Damn. I want another magic sword too. I'm sure some of the troops over there have Nine-Tailed Swords. Maybe we can get one during the night raid."

 

"Nii-san, don't get greedy. This time, we will approach them after dark and set their camp on fire. That's the objective. Don't get greedy and delve too deep."

 

"I know, I know. Hey, Ars, they've stopped moving completely. You're aiming for that area, right?"

 

"...... Yeah. Let's do it when the sun goes down and they go to sleep. I think I'll take a nap and get some rest."

 

　We continued to observe while talking and decided on a strategy for the night attack.

 

　Once we had set our sights, we moved away to rest our bodies.

 

　The other side was burning wood and eating a hot meal, but we were working in secret, so we couldn't make a fire.

 

　Baito-nii and I ate the salted meat we had brought with us and waited for the night to come.

 

　As the sun was setting and the darkness was spreading, we started to move.
