Chapter 318 (2/2)

Ionis grasped the «Kaiten» in each hand and broke into a run towards the Giant She arrived at its boso the Giant's attacks

Then she did a big leap towards its face and released her «Kaiten» at it They accurately landed near its brows, but it only caused the Giant's face to bend back a bit with no real dae dealt

Ionis landed with a spin, then touched the ground and started discharging the netism

”Sink!”

Just as the electrical discharge phenoround, the Giant's radually dropping towards the ground

”You did it! Good job, Io-chan!”

Muir, as well as everyone else, started grinning frohted at the fact that they could stop this Giant with this just like it ith Nigg and BeJohnny

However, its falling face suddenly came to a stop

”GA…GAGAGAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!”

It released a yell so terrific everyone had to cover their ears, and the pressure it brought forth blew off everyone around it Ionis was no exception to that and forcefully crashed to the ground

With that, the Magic seee about

”No way… Io-chan's Magic has no effect?”

”Kh…”

”Io-chan! Are you okay!?”

Muir rushed to Ionis who laid fallen to the ground

”Ugh… As expected, Io's Magic is hardly effective on such a giant body…”

It see it anyway, only for it to end as she expected

”Just now, it was that thing, right? The «Magic Warding Roar»”

”But Uncle… isn't that a power only the particular races of Beastmen can use?”

”Yeah, I' is, but it was exactly like the one I saw before”

”…You have seen it before, Uncle?”

”…Yeah, you should know about it too, Muir”

Arnold's words caught Muir off guard And then, Arnold continued with his answer

”It's about your father”

”F-Father!?”

”Yeah, the «Magic Warding Roar» should have aeffect It was the speciality of your father”

”…I see, so it was father's”

Muir slightly cast her eyes doith aher deceased father Then she swung her head side to side to abandon the idea and continued

”If Magic does not affect it, then what should we do, Uncle?”

”No, I' that the Magic will be repelled with that roar And that usually uses ayou can use so easily, but…”

Looking at the Giant ue made him frown in displeasure

”It looks quite lively to ic has no effect! Likebefore, it seems that it has little resistance to fire and wind If everyone showers it with the concentrated attacks of those two attributes, we ht be able to at least stop its advance”

Indeed, it see» were especially effective compared to the other attributes, and could easily wound its skin Of course, even that quickly healed with its regeneration, but if they concentrated it in one spot, they would be able to deal far ood nya! Let's go with Arnold's idea nya!”

”Got it! Everyone who can use those two attributes, gather up!”

Hearing Ionis' words, 'Evila' and 'Gabranth' soldiers started asse in succession

”I'll explain e have to do! We are going to concentrate fire and wind attribute attacks into one spot and attack the Giant! We are first going to ai!”

Indeed, if they aied to destroy it, they would be able to hinder its advance

The soldiers, despite their tense expressions, found hope of stopping the Giant with the suggested plan and responded energetically

They formed respective units of fire and wind and positioned the it between the as it takes a step forward nya!”

By concentrating fire and wind attacks froed that it would definitely deal a large ae to the Giant

”Everyone else distract the Giant so it doesn't attack the units on either side nya!”

If the Giant directed its attention towards those units the plan was highly likely to fail, so Crouch ordered the ones in front of the Giant to provoke it

While everyone else was desperately pulling its attention by Magic and «Binding» fro powers to discharge their respective strongest athered in them at a terrific speed Everyone believed that this

But then, the Giant's ic Warding Roar» Thinking that to be the case, Crouch signalled the two squads with her hand to hold off the attack for now

The soldiers, too, felt that once the roar ended and it started ain, it would be the perfect time to attack However, their expectations were cruelly betrayed

Suddenly, the Giant's stoht in its eyes And then, the ht of the fire unit on its left, it opened its giant mouth――――――――――――――――――
