"What are those things… They look kind of dangerous," Kate said when she saw the new toys that Billy created.
Poisoned Shuriken
Upon contact, it causes extra poison damage equal to five points per second for ten seconds. The damage can be multiplied if the target is hit by more than one Blade at a time.
Durability: 15/15
Billy forged several four-pointed shurikens. The blades recalled a bit the edge of those falchion swords. They certainly will cut many things well… Moreover, Billy won't have to train or worry about hitting someone with that. He will control everything with Telekinesis. He will increase the spinning speed so much that if most enemies don't get cut in two, they will die with the poison.
"Just some weapons that I thought that it would be interesting to use," Billy said.
That kind of ninja-like weapon wasn't famous, but it existed in that world. Billy found shurikens and even katanas when he was participating in the tournament held by the barbarians. In any case, Billy hoped that the next enemies won't be of the Poisonous type. He got carried away with that idea and forgot that it would be better to make several shurikens of several types of elements.
"Look," Billy said and then threw one of the shurikens toward the window, and then the weapon returned after making a long arc.
"... Where did you learn that?" Kate asked. "Also, don't use this in front of the kids."
"They are sleeping, so it is fine," Billy said.
Billy wanted to test those nasty toys as soon as possible, but it was hard to say if the monsters would come that day. In any case, they will be better than bows and crossbows since their effects will be unknown from far away. Besides, no one will think that Billy would be using mana.
When Billy and his friends went to the area where the others were waiting for the monsters, they noticed that the air around the people was a bit weird. It couldn't be that they were angry because the monsters weren't coming…
"What is wrong, Svan?" Billy asked.
"Some of my men are upset because we have come to fight months ago and while we fought, the enemies are no longer coming, so they think we don't have a reason to be here," Svan explained. "The mercenaries have another problem… They are expensive and the people from here can't keep paying them if they don't work."
Those sure were some unexpected problems… It wasn't like neither side was wrong. The barbarians had been there for many months, after all. As for the mercenaries, they were hired to fight, but it wasn't their fault that the enemy took a break. The people of the city were understanding, that was why everyone was cooperating to pay for the costs of the battle, but they could only do so for so long. In any case, that wasn't Billy's problem…
While everyone waited for the monster's arrival, they kept looking to the North. Eventually, they found something approaching from that direction. Still, it was too small to be a horde of monsters, but it was pretty fast… It couldn't be Icarus, though. If he wanted, he could run without leaving traces. With his improved eyesight, thanks to Hawkeye, Billy and his friends found what that was… It was Marie approaching while running with all her might. The closer she got, the more they noticed that she was exhausted and flustered.
"It is Marie… I guess she has some bad news," Billy said.
"You have some crazy eyesight… She must be thirsty if she ran this much nonstop," Svan said and then made some of his men prepare food and water.
Eventually, Marie arrived, but she fell with her butt on the ground. She truly had been running nonstop for who knows how long. She grabbed the water bucket and began to drink right from there without saying anything. While wheezing hard, she pointed toward the North, East, and West.
"What is that supposed to mean?" Svan asked.
She didn't reply yet. She was trying to control her breathing, but she was too exhausted, and her body needed oxygen. When she finally had the chance to talk again, everyone had some guesses about her message.
"They are coming… From north, east, and west," Marie said. "Dozen of thousands of monsters. Perhaps even more than that."
That didn't seem like good thing… The summoner wasn't stupid enough to divide an army of only ten thousand monsters into three groups. That would only make things simpler for the defenders to wipe them out… However, what if the number of enemies was too high that he had to divide them and make them attack from three directions at the same time? That would make things way more complicated for everyone.
"How much time do we have?" Svan asked when he saw Beatrice approaching.
"One hour, perhaps two, but no more than that," Marie said.
"What monsters are coming this time? Is it the same as before?" Beatrice asked. "We need to divide our forces properly…"
"It is a new type of enemy, I don't know what that is called and I never heard of something similar," Marie said. "They aren't big, but they can fight using weapons and all of them had two swords on their hands."
That was weird. Monsters that could use weapons usually appear in high-level dungeons, and they are extremely rare. It also increased the difficulty level since they usually are smarter than ordinary monsters. Nevertheless, Beatrice didn't hesitate and divided her soldiers into three groups, and she also divided the mercenaries in two and made them move to the eastern and western sides of the city. The barbarians would stay in the North. All of those groups will receive support from Galatea soldiers. Still, to make sure that things would end well, Billy decided to split his friends and well.
"We finally can make ourselves useful," Gustav said.
"It was about damn time," Gerald nodded while he was stretching his arms.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
