Half-elves Fall in Love

“For the time being, the Renfangas army has no chance of turning into an enemy so far”
“In fact, our army has a near zero possibility of a cold climate battle so far, so it doesn’t matter if it gets caught”
“Hey Hey”

Dianne also makes a wry smile.

“That doesn’t mean it’s a show off, though that’s not what I bring someone along”
“Well, that’s right”
“At the time when elder sister Laila, who is the most confidential, is imposing, naa?”

……Yes.
The most powerful equipment for cold regions is a fire dragon.

Continue with Isaac Corps for a while.
Laila walks on two legs in the snow with the carriage lifted without returning to her human body.
I ride on Laila’s head and look at the crossbow corps march from the side.

“But……there are more variations, crossbow corps”

I know that retirement, changing assignments and transfer have changed the corps considerably, but I didn’t have a chance to look at every corner in detail.
I feel a little left out.

“The proportion of dark elves and human beasts has increased”

Chibi Laila mutters into my ear.

“Now that you say that……”

There are especially many fox beasts.
I could roughly see ten dark elves.

“Make up for what Dianne was magically covering……”
“So that’s it”

Dianne is walking while talking to Isaac at the beginning, so she can’t hear it now.
Not to mention the dark elves, the fox beasts are also a race that is good at magic.
Keiron is useless, but it is said that magic can be used for about two-thirds of the time.
However, it is also true that magic tends to be a good price or inferior in physical strength compared to other beast races.

“Don’t be late, you guys! The pace isn’t going up that much!”
“Even if 10-man captain Bronson wants to shortcut!”
“We walked all the way from Basson!”
“You can complain, but don’t argue! Don’t let go of it because it’s okay! You’ll die if you get lost during a military operation!”

Bronson’s opponents were also young fox beasts.
Well, it’s not that dark elves and humans don’t even say anything.
There is no guts in any race.
……By the way, the ogre soldiers, who are generally not good at snow and mountain marches, were always fine.
Because of their large size, they can’t afford cardiopulmonary function and they tend to get sick as soon as they climb high mountains, but this equipment will overcome that area.

“Ho”
“What´s up”
“……The road is blocked, but what should we do?”

It’s been two hours since we started walking.
Laila raises a suspicious voice.
When I saw it, there was an ice wall blocking the road.

“Issac.
Map”
“Yes, no doubt.
……In summer, it’s a good road”

Williams and Isaac look up at the ice wall.
Apparently, the ice grows in winter and blocks the road.

“Should I melt it?”
“Stop it.
Then it’s not going to be a military training

If you assume the help of a dragon, you will end up in a place where you can fly from the beginning.
Dianne slams the wall with her fist and looks back at Isaac and others.

“Detour?”
“No.
We have a reserve for such times.
……Rackman!”
“Yes Sir”

One of the members that came from behind, the corps that was pulling supplies with a sled with the wheels removed from the rear car, called the dwarf Rackman, a regular soldier.

“That’s your turn.
Start”
“That’s it”

Rackman throws out a wooden box from the sled and opens it.
From that flat box……what is it?

“Axe?”
“You’re going to break that ice with an axe.
Long-suffering”
“I think it’s going to be spring by the time we make……”

Rackman carries an axe, which seems to be a little big for a dwarf, to the front of the ice wall.

“100-man commander Isaac”
“Ou.
Move back”

When Isaac takes it, it looks like a hatchet.

“……N, that axe……”

Dianne seems to have noticed something.
Isaac grinned, took off his cloak and raised the axe.

“I’ll go”

Isaac swings back.

“……Do it, 『Ice Decker』!!”

He smashes the axe against the ice wall.
Then a light exploded from the axe.

Zugoon, a loud roar.

“What !?”
“That is……!?”

I’m shrinking involuntarily and Laila looks surprised.

“Wh, What happened!?”

Jeanne and Naris, who were in the carriage, also hurriedly opened the coachman’s stand.
However, the dense fog that occurred in an instant is blocking the view.
……After a while, when it cleared up.

The ice wall, which was nearly 5 meters high in front of Isaac, had disappeared for several tens of meters across.

“What is that……”
“Dragon Slayer……no, different.
I don’t feel uncomfortable denying life like that……”

As Laila mutters, it is a spectacular power that seems to be mistaken for a dragon slayer at first glance.
But the ice has been blown away, but strangely the road beneath it hasn’t been damaged at all.
If it was such a big destruction, the ground would have been scooped out and dented, but only the ice had disappeared cleanly.

“……Isaac, this is the one”
“『Ice Decker』.
It seems to be the latest work of the development department”

Isaac shook the axe and worked hard to extend the road.

————————————–

There is a race called Merman.
It is a race that has joined hands with Celesta in recent decades and wielded its power as a maritime force and boasts an absolute advantage over other races in underwater warfare.
After all, it’s scary because a fleet of about 10 or 20 ships doesn’t have an hour to face an underwater unit of about 10 Mermans.
A legend that is passed down to them.

The sea serpent, once regarded as the great evil dragon of the sea, fought a fierce battle with the Merman´s hero.
The battle lasted seven days and seven nights and an island sank and a storm broke out.
To the exhausted hero, the sea serpent pressed the iceberg it called from the northern sea as a trump card.
The iceberg is big and you can’t escape even if you try to escape.
At that time, when the hero seemed to be the last, a maiden took out a flea (a stone or a tree carving instead of an insect) from an archaeological site on an island and threw it into the sea.
The hero who took it digs one or eight holes and hits the flea against the iceberg to escape.
The flea is actually a sacred treasure of the sea god and has returned all the icebergs to seawater.
The sea serpent who lost the trump card was tied to the hero as it was and somehow it rotted at the bottom of the sea.

“It seems that it is a copy product made by analyzing the flea that is said to be the sacred treasure.
Well, it is a sacred treasure, in short, it is a relic of the ancient civilization”
“……Is this a copy product? It’s scary”
“But the downside is……it only works on ice.
It’s just ice, not water or rocks”
“…………”

Dianne seemed to try to say, 「It’s still amazing」, but she looked a little displeased.
A weapon that blows away only ice.
But other than that, it’s a normal weapon.

“……What are you using it for?”
“I think there is no choice but to use it for making roads in cold regions or exploring the polar regions”
“Can’t you use it as a countermeasure against ice dragons? It’s not ice, but cold air itself is a weapon”
“There are no monsters that use ice as a weapon”
“…………”

Dianne had a really displeased face.

“It’s useless”
“But snow is also ice, so it’s convenient to make bivouac points”

Isaac laughed bitterly while putting away the 『Ice Decker』.

“Ice dragons are likely to dislike it”
“It’s the amazing technology of the Celesta army……”
“Wait a minute.
It looks like it will sell great as a snow shoveling tool, right?”
“!! That’s Smithson.
……It’s military.
I don’t think the military can make money”

Amazing super technology.
Even though I witnessed the power of Celesta, it was a very embarrassing atmosphere.
