Legend

When there was an unprecedented commotion going on in Mejougo... there was a similar commotion going on elsewhere than that again.

A vast space extending underground.

There were countless giants out there who would just be stupid to count too.

Now, I guess I can't hear any of the giants making a scene because the giants are asleep.

Until now, there have been no particular problems with it.

Because of the black crystal shards that were surgically implanted in the giant's body.

Surgical surgery, of course, is not as highly skilled as Japanese doctors.

All I'm doing is simply cleaving the giant's body with a dagger and embedding black crystal shards about the size of his fingertips there.

If it is a wound to the extent that it has been torn several centimeters with a dagger, with the resilience of a giant, that is the only way to fully recover in less than enough time.

That's the kind of surgery you can call that too daunting.

But... one shoulder inside the sleeping giant moves small as he holds his knee.

If it has the effect of black crystal fragments, behavior that would never be possible.

If a Jayan human being in this cave sees that sight, it wouldn't be strange to behave like a big commotion just because of it.

But only the giants are here, and no one is surprised to see it.

Such giant movements do not stop...... not just one, but some other giants also move small.

The giants moving that way had something in common.

That is, fragments of black crystals that should have been embedded in the body have disappeared from the body.

Originally, black crystals can also be called the biggest keys to keeping the giant under control.

Because of that, the giants slept here heavily and did not need food.

But... at this moment, the black crystal shards disappeared.

And the giant, whose black crystal shards disappear, gradually regains movement.

The number of tiny, physically moving giants gradually increases, and eventually the movement is not very much but cannot be called small.

That's such a move, as if the state you've been asleep in is on your way to waking up.

Not just one or two of the giants, but that's what's spreading to all the giants gathered here.

Awakening of about a thousand giants. What the hell does that bring...... no one knows the tragedy yet.

But the tragedy was imminent.

"Hmm, that's quite a lot, watchful"

Ray mutters when he sees a soldier who is unconscious.

Fortunately for the soldier, although consciousness is pruned, there is no such thing as broken bones in his hands and feet.

I guess I had to get hurt to the point where I didn't say anything like "whore".

The cave was the main road, but we encounter soldiers several times.

Apparently, the soldiers don't patrol, they have a set of waiting areas.

Thanks to this narrow space, we don't have to do anything like fight a large number of enemies.

(Cartoons and all that, enemies waited for each floor on the tower of the enemy stronghold and unfolded to knock it down in turn... kinda like that?

I thought it was Ray that way, but I guess the person in charge here thought it would be more efficient to keep the soldiers within a certain range, not on patrol, than to never have a good scaffold being a cave.

In fact, that's never wrong.

If it were normal, it would have been possible to call reinforcements to the gap where our people were being attacked, and to inform them of enemy attacks by any means.

It's just... the only biggest miscalculation is that it was the overwhelming strengths like the Rays who raided us?

Thanks to this, the soldiers each get their consciousness pruned faster than they can take any action.

Many of the soldiers who have lost consciousness have suffered considerable wounds.

This was because many soldiers were chatting with their peers without having to do anything in particular where they were waiting.

No, if it's just a chat, I don't care that much.

However, the fact that the content of the chat was directed against Mejougo's whores caused a severe stimulus to Elaine and the others.

"You've sent a good number of reinforcements to Mejougo's underground facility, and you still have all this room."

"Precisely, I guess you left the soldiers you needed to keep an eye on here and sent everyone else."

To the words of Vihera, Marina returns them so.

In fact, if we could still afford soldiers in Jaya... more precisely in this cave, we would have increased our reinforcements.

Few soldiers remain here than they are.

That was Marina's idea... but the problem would be that the number of soldiers who felt that was less than Marina expected.

(Talk in the first place, this place is waiting for the giant...... save? Storage? It's such an important facility as to keep it, so it's natural that the number of soldiers is high)

With that in mind, proceed through the cave.

That passage, strangely undivided, naturally makes Ray question it.

I wondered why there was no more division than so unnatural.

There has been no division at all since we entered the cave and there has been a division that leads to the Giants.

Obviously it just seems like a sight to call unnatural.

"Hey, this cave... I knew you were getting your hands on it, right?

"I think so, too. … although I am concerned that the ground remains difficult to walk for that matter. If we're really going to get it, I think we can make it easier to walk."

Elaine, wearing the same Slapenil shoes as Ray, steps lightly on the ground in the cave.

What's there is such a bad road that it would be difficult to run if it were normal.

If the Jayans here were carrying supplies such as supplies, household goods, food and beverages, the difficulty of walking on this ground would have been a major drawback.

For once the carriage is large enough to pass through, but even if there is a carriage, the wheels will undoubtedly be fitted and unable to move.

That's what I think, and I notice Ray.

"Are you using giants to bring in supplies?

Jaya's freedom to manipulate the giants is obvious given the raid on the Resistance.

And given the size of the giant, there will also be a considerable amount of luggage that can be held.

Not to mention, giants can load their luggage into the kind of luggage and carry it bare hands, in addition to all of it being the same size.

"It would be possible, wouldn't it? I think it's a little difficult to use a giant for something like that from an organization called Jaya."

Aren't we going to imitate that basically just to the giants who prepared it as a force of war?

Ray can't deny that to the marina.

(Anyway, if we move on...... yeah?

Ray, who was going down the aisle, gently reaches out and signals to stop behind him.

Look at that signal, Elaine and the others stop.

What's the matter with you? and to Elaine and the others who have turned their gaze, Ray shows the end of the aisle.

There it is, a huge door.

That was the door that had the size of an easy entry, even for a giant.

... What's wrong with that more than watching similar doors over and over again in Mejougo's underground facility? I'm being honest.

However, having such a door would undoubtedly mean that beyond the door there are the people of Jaya... and that too, if Lutus is right, there are those who were deeply involved in the matter of the giant.

And as a matter of course, there are soldiers in front of the door.

However, unlike the soldiers Ray and the others had encountered before, they did not imitate such things as talking to colleagues to kill time.

Sometimes they are just entrusted with this door, and they are elite... At the same time, there are people beyond the door who have more than a certain status among the jaws.

The appearance of disingenuity in front of such persons was tantamount to suicide for the soldiers.

Anyway, this isn't the regular army, it's the tissue jar behind it.

Even if it is unbelievable if it is the original army, it can be executed more easily than it is the organization behind it.

That's what I don't care about, because I'm not taking my watch seriously. I don't want you.

So fight the Titans with your life at stake to make sure the Titans are capable of fighting... and so on.

With that in mind, naturally it would also be natural for the soldiers to take their work seriously.

You're a pain in the ass.

Elaine and the others nod back, too, to Ray's words, which whine small.

Being seriously guarded naturally doesn't mean poking your opponent's gap and approaching him all at once and knocking him down, as he has done before.

Of course, I was confident that I could do whatever I wanted, but if we move flashly here, we could be distracted by those beyond the door.

"Even if you use magic, it's more flashy than it is in my case."

The only magic Ray can use is flaming magic.

Often it becomes flashy magic, as it should be.

"What about Elaine and the marina?

"I don't think there's anything you can't do, but if those soldiers fall, won't they still be noticed on the other side of the door?

"Right. If you're going to knock it down, you need to knock it down with one blow... so it doesn't make any noise either. Or make it disappear all at once so you can't make a sound."

I guess Marina, who calls it extinction with a cheerful face, still has a lot to think about an organization called Jaya.

"It's kind of like imitating that.... I can't help it. You can make some noise, so we can take them all down as soon as we can."

I decide that I would rather have defeated them normally than use magic in the end.

"Are you sure? You'll find him soon enough, won't you?

"Right. Normally, if you get close to the other side, you'll find it. It's just... how about from the top?

This cave is as tall as a giant can afford to travel.

The height up to the top is about 5m to 6m.

However, there are stone ice columns on top… some stalactites are stretched.

In such a place alone, there were a number of potentially dangerous ways Ray was thinking.

"Me and Elaine have Slapenil shoes where we can walk in the sky. If you use this and set up an ambush from above... I'm not saying you won't find it, don't you think it's hard to find it?

Fortunately, the Rays are currently at a corner from a path with a huge gate.

It's a loose curve, but there's absolutely nothing wrong with hiding the Rays.

The only difficulty is that there is some distance from turning the corner to where the gate is?

Without the ceiling, we can move higher and act so that the soldiers don't find us, but there is ample chance that we might find ourselves at the height of the current ceiling.

But in the end, when he decides that's the best, Ray turns his gaze to Elaine.

You understand what that gaze means, Elaine nods quickly too.

"If we launch an attack, Vihella and the others will be ready to go. Maybe it's okay, but it doesn't mean they're not going to do something strange."

"Yeah, okay. But you need to act as quietly as you can."

Ray nods back at Marina's words like asking for confirmation.

"That's right.... Elainea, are you ready?

"Oh."

Nodding at Ray's words, Elaine falls back with Ray.

You should be able to use Slapenil's shoes at least as far as you can travel to earn some distance.

Understand that and move.

That's how when we take about ten steps back, we run out together as it were.

When you go up to maximum speed in a few steps, you jump while trying not to make as much noise as you can.

That's how you activate Slapenil's shoes with the jump, taking a step in the air first.

At once in that step you go up to near the ceiling, kick it as if you were going to triangulate in the air in the next step, and show up in the passage with the door.

Seriously, they were soldiers monitoring the surrounding situation for any anomalies, but they notice something uncomfortable.

"What?"

But even if you're uncomfortable, you don't know what's there.

Turning his gaze to a colleague nearby, he looked around to see if he was equally uncomfortable with anything there.

And casually...... the moment I really casually turned my gaze upwards, what came into my eyes were two shadows traveling near the ceiling.

Sometimes it was near the ceiling that had that shadow, just glancing at you... the next moment, a shadow descended from above the soldier and the soldier was unconscious.

When you need to speak up about something, even though you think so...

That's how he looked at the unconscious soldier, and Ray turned his gaze to Elaine, who, like himself, was in front of the unconscious soldier.
