Chapter 213 - Armed Strengthening
"Demon-san, this way, to the left. All right, Baito-nii, I hope you're ready."
"Okay, I got it, Ars."
I found a demon moving in the forest, and led it to a certain point.
There is a space in the forest that looks open.
Baito-nii was waiting for me there.
Once I successfully brought the demon to the clearing, I could watch him attack the demon.
After killing the first one that was sighted, I went into the forest and kept looking for demons and killing them.
However, after defeating a few, I switched with my older brother so he too could fight them.
It wasn't that I was being an asshole and forcing my brother to do it.
It was actually him that volunteered.
"Goooooooooooooo!"
The creature was lured out by me and brought to a place where there was a person with a weapon in front of him.
Maybe the demon found out about it and got angry.
Or maybe it simply used its power because prey appeared in front of it.
Apparently, these demons are also magic.
It seems that whenever it raises its voice and yells, a change appears in its body.
The body that was originally muscular becomes even larger.
However, the muscles do not simply swell up but change into a form of metal armor.
They use a spell that could be called [Armorization] if I were to take the liberty to name it.
That spell is simple but terrifying.
The new creature has a high level of defense, but at the same time, it has an innate and overwhelming strength.
If it hit the ground with a clenched fist, the ground will cave in, and if a human were to get hit by that very same fist, that person would break and shatter.
He was a high-level opponent in both offense and defense and could be called a true monster.
Baito-nii was fighting alone against this demon.
In his hand was a Hard-fang Sword.
After experimenting for a while with the Thundering Sword, Nine-tailed Sword, and normal swords, we found that Hard-fang Swords worked the best against the demons.
Even a normal Hard-fang Sword, not just the Grand Barca, was able to penetrate the skin of the monster.
Any Hard-fang Sword only has the ability to [Harden] if mana is passed through it.
It's not as flashy as a Nine-tailed Sword or one of the Thundering Sword.
However, it had the ability to continue to not break, even if put under strenuous conditions.
And, the effect of the demon's [Armorization] was not foolproof.
It could be defeated by being attacked over and over again, being struck down by swords.
Even if you are attacked by your opponent, in this case the demon, the Hard-fang Sword can defend you.
This sword could be used for both attack and defense.
Nonetheless, not just anyone can fight these types of creatures even while having a Hard-fang Sword.
After all, there is too much of a difference in power between humans and demons.
Even if you take a punch from a demon, guarded by the sword, the sword itself won't break, but you, the human, will still be overpowered and get blown away.
Under most circumstances, the bones in your hand that were grasping the sword would break and you'd be thrown into a tree or something, taking a lot of damage.

Also, if you try to hit the demon with your sword, you can damage it, but you can't kill it with just one blow.
The only way to win is to keep attacking over and over again without taking damage from your opponent's overwhelming attack power.
To put it bluntly, I don't think it's an opponent that an ordinary person can defeat.
However, Baito-nii wanted to fight the demon.
It was an act of self-improvement.
Demons are strong, there is no doubt about that.
However, there are people who are stronger than demons.
They are the so-called Heads of families.
Those who boast overwhelming mana will have even more powerful spells, so they can be said to be stronger than these mere creatures.
In order to be able to win against such people, my brother had been training against the demons living in this forest.
"Armed and Fortified ā ā ~a~a~a~a~a~a~tsu~tsu~tsu~tsu~tsu!"
Baito-nii unleashed his own words in front of the demon.
For now, it's just a meaningless cry.
He was saying that while putting mana into the Hard-fang Sword.
The magic sword has an effect when you pour mana into it.
However, there is an upper limit to its effect.
Increasing the amount of mana poured into the Nine-tailed Sword will increase the length of the flaming sword that is created, but it will stop growing at a certain size.
In the same way, the Hard-fang Sword should stop [Hardening] at a certain point.
But my brother kept adding more and more mana even after the sword was well-past the limit that would increase the [Hardening] effects.
Normally, this would be a meaningless act.
However, the mana he was pouring into it was not wasted.
This is because the overflowing mana was used to wrap around the sword.
An attack by Baito-nii with his sword at its best condition, yet being enhanced by the mana around it was quite powerful.
In other words, he was creating a spell to increase the power of his weapon.
The new Hard-fanged Sword certainly did a great deal of damage to the demon compared to the normal ones that had no mana encasing.
However, it had to be said that this was a dangerous act.
Allocating most of his mana to attack instead of defending meant that even one hit from the demon could lead to death.
However, my older brother did not back down.
He was willing to put his life on the line to face the demon and put his all into it.
There were so many dangerous moments that my heart almost jumped out of my chest.
Even so, he continued to fight the demon.
And so, day after day, he continued to fight, piling up demon corpses, until he succeeded in creating a spell called [Armed Strengthening].

Oni will stay as "Demon" until further notice. I might sometimes say "ogre", but don't mind it. I've also gone and asked for just a bit of help so we'll probably be fixated on one answer by the end of the week.
And just a bit busy, so 2 chapters will be released tomorrow to make up for the one missed today. Sorry...
