409 Part 1

12-59 Reiko’s Battle

The one who made the first move was the combat Golem.

The length of his greatsword was about the same as Reiko’s height. He held the sword over his head and swung straight down at Reiko.

With her splendid steps, Reiko dodged the attack.

In a swift motion, the Golem swung the sword diagonally from below, attempting the next attack. But it was too late. Reiko was no longer there.

“Hmm, speed is the only remarkable trait she has, eh?”

Marcus murmured, and then barked an order to his combat Golem.

“Garboreal! Get serious!”

In response to his command, the combat Golem increased his speed by one level, no, two levels.

Likely to weigh over 400 kilograms, the giant began to move faster than humans.

The ground was either gouged or cracked from the impact of his footsteps.

“What an amazing speed with that enormous body …!”

Most spectators were astounded by his movement.

However, Prince Ernest was not impressed. He turned toward Princess Lieschen, who was sitting next to him, and whispered,

“It’s not that big of a deal at all. With her small body, Reiko had knocked off dozens of stampeding combat Golems in the past.”

“Yes, I have also witnessed her true ability. She neutralized 50 bandits in an instant with ease.”

Just as she said, Reiko was dodging the combat Golem Garboreal’s onslaught with a devil-may-care attitude.

“Heh, all she could do is dodging. She’s just a second-rate Magi Engineer’s doll, after all!”

Reiko heard Marcus’ muttering.

“… I’m only following my father’s order to not cause you too much embarrassment, but it seems like you don’t even understand that.”

Reiko stopped. She blocked the incoming greatsword.

“Oh, oh?!”

The audience could not believe their eyes.

Reiko started to engage the attacks of the combat Golem Garboreal; sometimes she dodged, sometimes she repelled them, sometimes she directly blocked them.

The entire audience was flabbergasted seeing how Reiko’s tiny hand could skillfully wield the tiny sword, which was only one-tenth the size of the greatsword. She could withstand and even overwhelm the physical strength of the greatsword wielded by the combat Golem. Her physical strength was already unbelievable to begin with, but what she was currently displaying was even more ridiculous.
