「Decisive Battle」
The soldiers and warriors stationed southwest of the Holy City numbered just a little over ten thousand .
The people gathered here were from various races and different nationalities . The human soldiers from Rhoden, Nozan, and Salma Kingdom made up the bulk, followed by the elven warriors of Canada and Doranto, with the miscellaneous addition of the Blade Heart Clan and the two Dragon Kings .
This was the first time in this world’s history that such a variety of nations and races formed an alliance with one another…… each party here because of a common goal shared between them .
In the center of this gathering stood a ma.s.sive simple tent where a representative of each power was a.s.sembled, and their attention was on me .
“Undead giants…… such troublesome things . ”
Dylan groaned out a response as he attempted to sooth the deep wrinkles hearing Ferufivisurotte and my report .
Beside him, Ariane made a complicated expression as she listened to our tale .
“An attack that spreads ‘death impurities’ is nothing to laugh at . If they can do such a thing, ordinary men will be killed immediately . Considering the giants’ size, their range is too vast for us to even approach the holy city……”
The muscular Canadian elder in full warrior attire, Furgas, nodded along with Dylan a.s.sertions .
Everyone’s faces went grim when they heard about what the “death impurities” did when they came into contact with the ground .
It was then that Ferufivisurotte, in her human form, stepped up with a confident smile and spoke up .
“That is why Williahsfim and I will be the giants’ playmates . Besides, Arc-hon can grant everyone a protection charm capable of dispersing ‘death impurities’ at least once, isn’t that better?”
Everyone’s eye fell upon me at her remark .
“Arc-dono, is that true?”
Margrave Branier was the one that asked me to verify the extent of my magic’s effects .
It’d been sheer luck that the spell had managed to work on Ferufivisurotte during our reconnaissance mission……
However, it shouldn’t be a problem .
“We confirmed the effects of the spell when Ferufivisurotte-dono received a direct hit from the ‘death impurities’ attack . Although 【Holy Protection】can dispel the curse, the question remains if the person can endure the hit or not?”
Just because the body of a strong dragon king can withstand the impact of the “death impurity” attach didn’t mean than a human body could .
You shouldn’t overestimate the effects 【Holy Protection】 had on you upon getting it .
“To avoid unnecessary casualties due to the Giants’ attack, a frontal a.s.sault is out of the question…… I can’t imagine the damages that would cause . ”
Prince Sect brushed a forelock aside and let out a weary sigh as he spoke .
There were no aftereffects of his previous injuries, yet he carried the responsibility of leading Rhoden’s forces with a wryly smile now .
“Even if we divide our forces into platoons and conduct guerrilla warfare, I don’t see things going over very well . Shouldn’t we wait till the undead giants are slain before trying to invade the Holy City?”
Princess Lille’s escort and acting commander of the Nozan forces, Zahar Bahárov, was the next to speak up .
On behest of King Asparuf himself, the princess’s other escort, Nina, accompanied him to provide a.s.sistance .

I was ignorant of the political landscape, but it appears the king had poured quite some resources into a.s.suring that talented and trustworthy people stood alongside his daughter .
Chiome, as the youngest attendant and representative of the Blade Heart Clan added her own opinions in a dignified manner .
“The opponents aren’t humans, they lack the strategic thinking necessary to withdraw . While Ferufivisurotte-sama and Williahsfim-sama are fighting the undead giants, we can draw the undead outside the range of the giants’ attacks . ”
Behind Chiome, Goemon, the giant fighter who was larger than Furgas, crossed his arms and silently nodded in agreement with her suggestion .
An ordinary person might take issue with Chiome’s pet.i.te size and age, but Goemon’s solid ma.s.s ensured that no one was brave enough to voice their complaints .
However, most of the representatives were experienced fighters who could detect the strength she possessed .
In that respect, the most surprising thing was that Prince Sect, who’d lead the charge at Urier river until an injury took him out of the fight, seemed to be the only one who couldn’t see her strength .
As I pondered that mystery, Dylan faced each of the representatives and gave us a pa.s.sionate speech .
“……I’ll take all your input into consideration as we finalize our plan of action . This shall be the decisive battle against Hiruku . Once this matter is settled, history shall remember what has taken place here . Right now, in this very place, we sit on the cusp of a new era . For that reason, I pray for everyone’s luck . ”
Each representative calmly nodded along after Dylan finished his speech before leaving the tent to address their individual followers .

“The decisive battle with the Hiruku Theocracy……”
“Kyun!”
As I left the tent while scratching the scruff of Ponta’s neck, my gaze wandered over to the Holy City, specifically the ma.s.sive cathedral that peeked over the city wall .
Besides me, Ariane looked straight ahead as she tied up her hair, Chiome recited a string of ninja mantras, and Goemon cracked his knuckles as he glared at the city .
“Then, let’s go . ”
“Yes . ”
“Right . ”
“Hm……”
Each of the responded to my words in their own way .
