452 Chapter 452: 4 Days (3)
Frost didn’t have anything else with him item wise, but he did tell Leo an abridged version of his encounter with Valend the frost giant, which caused another frown to appear on his face.
Frost giants weren’t unheard of in the monster stampedes, but they were certainly a rarity and never encountered near beginning of the late stages. Alas this wasn’t any old stampede, the current six B-ranks beyond the northern wall was evidence of that.
Leo took in this new information with a sigh before Frost and Kiba took flight to the northern wall following the young noble’s orders.
Frost landed near Hamon who was still exuding his aura in a threatening manner and staring down the seething rindars, taunting them to make a move.
“Colonel” Frost spoke while dismounting Kiba.
“Oh Leo finish telling you what’s what and putting you to work already.” Hamon smiled wildly as heard Frost’s voice and noticed that the eldest rindar’s gaze was no longer on him.
‘Looks like I’m no longer the most hated.’ Hamon internally mocked but also analysed the dangers of such a situation. Frost’s level of strength made him vulnerable to the attacks of the rindars far more than himself who previously held the focus of the enemy commander. A young up and coming adventurer who was not only highly skilled and brave but was close friends with the Viscount and his family, nothing could be allowed to happen to him.
He eyed the eldest rindar with no small amount of trepidation, large doses of fury can make someone act illogically regardless of their intelligence.
“Yeah he said that we needed to survive for another four days, at that point serious reinforcements will arrive.” Frost nodded his head before turning to face the gaze that threatened to burn a hole in his cheek.
.....
‘For someone with an extra two arms he’s being awful petty about losing just one.’ Frost smirked towards the eldest rindar, fully taunting him before turning back to Hamon.
“I handed over some supplies as well so hopefully that will make our jobs easier until then.”
“Much appreciated Frost, I’ll make sure to put them to good use.” Hamon gave a strong nod and thanked him.
“According to Bastion and Ryuu you’re someone with martial skills, chakra as well as ice magic correct?” Hamon placed his hand under his chin and rubbed it while in thought, a habit he had developed.
“Correct though my magic is slightly weaker than my glaive mastery and chakra control I’ve got no issue casting 2nd circle spells and even a few 3rd circles. Do you need me to reinforce the magic corps?” Personally he wanted to re-join the frontlines, using his glaive and chakra to cut down swaths of D and C-rank enemies for their glorious DP and stabilise his advanced mastery. But this was a war situation, he was one but many high level fighters and needed to go where he was required if they were to have any chance of surviving this siege. This was not a one man show.
“Hmmm that would be for the best right now. Our vanguard fighters are strong enough and plentiful enough to handle the current situation, putting you in right now would be a waste of your stamina and our resources plus there’s a very big target on your back right now, best not to further aggravate the enemy when we don’t have to.” Hamon agreed with Frost, the magic crops was in dire need of fresh blood.
“Understood Colonel, what of Kiba?” Frost performed a military salute before gesturing towards Kiba and rubbing his head with affection.
???????????????? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????-????????????.????????????
Hamon’s eyes narrowed as he looked at Kiba, at his wings in particular before smiling mischievously.
“Oh I think I can find something for him to do as long he’s ok taking order from someone who isn’t his master.”
Kiba and Frost looked towards one another, exchanging their thoughts through their soul bond.
“He says he’s fine with that, you’re strong and he respects you, so he’ll follow your orders to a tee.” Frost answered verbally while Kiba chuffed and displayed his sharp fangs, eager to enter the fray.
“Perfect then it’s settled, until the next break in the wave I’ll have you join the magic corps alongside Ryuu and Major Jessie while Kiba here will be under my direct command, I’ll be putting those wings of yours to good use little tiger hehehehe.” Hamon laughed eerily but Kiba failed to notice the strangeness hearing only the fact that he’d get to use his wings.
Frost however did and shook his head in response before saluting Hamon once again and heading towards the magic corps that was set up across several towering platforms behind the northern wall. He could already see Ryuu staring his way with a bright smile on his face causing Frost to natural smile in response, his heart warming at seeing another friendly face.
“Welcome to the special relaxation destination that is Furano, a period that crops up only every few years but attracts nearly all adventurers in the vicinity and you’re in luck this year seems to be far more popular and relaxing than normal, hopefully you enjoy your stay here.” Ryuu instantly joked about the situation causing the other B-rank mage, Major jessie to let out a restrained laugh before she elbowed him in the side for distracting her and lying so naturally.
Frost shook his head and chuckled in response, finding the joke quite well timed. He then looked at Ryuu’s face.
“You look like shit Ryuu.” He answered honestly. Ryuu currently had a serious case of bloodshot and unfocused eyes, a symptom of mana exhaustion. His body also looked as though it was struggling to maintain his balance as though he could keel over at any second.
“Haaaaaaa if I was a woman I doubt you’d be so brutally honest.” Ryuu sighed but didn’t reject the statement he’d certainly seen better days; he was already at his limit before the desperate situation with Douglas but now he was beyond that point and suffering the painful consequences. Hamon realised this would be the case that’s why he needed Frost to replace the heavy hitter that was Ryuu, allowing him to get some much needed rest and avoid permanent damage, something they couldn’t afford.
Frost moved in close and place his hands on Ryuu’s shoulders, gripping them tight.
“You can take a break now old man you’ve earned it.” Ryuu’s eyes shook before he let out a sigh, the memory of their first meeting flashing before his eyes.
At that point he aggressively pressured Frost with his aura trying to make him fall to his knees as he believed he was an enemy that sought to harm his daughter. Only a few months had passed since then yet now Frost stood before him on equal grounds, his aura fully realised, a proper B-rank fighter. The young will always surpass the old, Frost was a clear basis for that statement.
“Just so you know your regular [ice bolt spell] won’t cut it here you need to at least know and be able to cast 2nd circle spells repeatedly such as [blizzard], [ice ball] or [ice lance]. Only they will be strong enough to have some impact.” To be honest an ice user really wasn’t much good here given the type of enemies so even 2nd circle spells of that element would have minor affects at best.
Frost’s smile slowly stretched from ear to ear making him look cocky before his eyes glinted and he began casting a spell he purchased a couple days ago.
“[Ice burn like flames and freeze thine enemy in an explosion of cold fire, freezing fire ball]” Frost summoned his mana and generated a complicated magic crest before him that summoned an azure ball of fire similar to the one Ryuu utilised earlier except it was cold instead of hot. The ball of high mortal ranked cold flames fired off in a parabola over the northern wall before crashing down into a group of ice trolls.
Boooooommmm!
With an explosion of freezing fire the ice trolls were blown outward, their chests covered in chilling burns that sapped their physical strength and sent jolts of pain throughout their bodies with every breath. Two ice trolls had been significantly wounded from this single 3rd circle spell a fact that drew the attention of the rindars and other B-rank monsters. No one as of yet had used cold flame spells meaning Furano had received new reinforcements.
“Well will this work? I’ve also got some regular 3rd circle ice spells that can serve as crowd control instead of straight up damage dealers.” Frost looked on at the shocked expressions of Ryuu, Jessie as well as the other members of the magic corps.
Cold flame magic was a very specialised class that only a select few could utilise, Frost was one of those few.
Ryuu’s lips twitched as he felt his decades of magic training was nothing but a joke in front of Frost this endlessly talented brat. But in the end he was his friend and could only feely happy about his improvements.
“Yeah that’ll work right Jess?” He asked his current colleague and vice leader of the magic corps.
“Certainly you’ll make a fine addition to the magic corps so keep firing, Ryuu’s not the only one who could use a good break hehehehe.” Jessie replied with sparkling eyes and chuckled as a weight was lifted from her shoulders. Her physical state being not much better than Ryuu’s.
Frost nodded his head and took up position on the platform before casting his [freezing fire ball] once again as requested.
