The shock was greatly reduced thanks to the skin of the body. The body, which had grown strong from overeating the meat of the metaphor, endured. However, being strong against the cold does not mean that one does not feel the cold. Likewise, being strong does not mean that one does not get sick. Shin-gi gritted his teeth against the pain that was rising from his chest.
Humility, who had blown away the spirit, set his next target as the commander of the royal knights. The commander of the knights, holding a double-handed sword, dodged Humility with a small movement as he lunged at him and struck Humility’s neck. The commander’s sword also glowed brightly like Humility’s horn.
In Shingi’s eyes, it was clear that the Knight Commander’s evasion was delayed, but he dodged Humility’s charge appropriately. And Humility’s neck seemed to be about to be cut by the sword, but Humility’s body spun around and blocked the sword with his horn. Humility’s horn did not glow, but it easily deflected the Knight Commander’s sword.
Thanks to the meat of the metaphor, Shingi’s physical abilities have been enhanced in every way, and he has seen with his own eyes that the neck of the humble can freely expand and contract. Shingi’s pure physical abilities are no less than those of the trained knights of the Order, but since he has not undergone any professional training, he is unable to utilize those abilities at all.
Shingi took out the Sword of Judgement from his magic pouch. In the meantime, two knights had already lost their lives to the Horn of Humility. Only three knights, including the Knight Commander, were able to avoid Humility’s attack, while the other knights fought back with force, getting seriously injured or losing their lives.
“Snowman Soldier.”
The snowman soldier summoned by Shingi is about 3 meters in size. Although many can be summoned, Shingi concentrated the magic power required for the magic into one snowman. The magic was originally supposed to summon dozens of snowmen about 50 centimeters tall, but Shingi summoned only one snowman.
The original snowman was very agile. However, the snowman became somewhat slow as it grew bigger. When the snowman moved a few steps toward Humility, Humility’s position changed, so he had to change direction again. Shingi thought about it and used magic substitution.
“Snowman Archer.”
This is a magic created by Shingi. Snowman only has soldier magic that can be used in close combat. However, Shingi boldly created magic by trusting in the star-shaped golden earrings and the leaf-shaped blue ring. The earrings enhance control, so the probability of the magic succeeding increases, and even if it fails, the ring completely immunizes the backlash of the magic failure.
The snowman’s appearance changed slightly to look more nimble. However, it was not an archer shooting arrows as Shingi had thought. It would be better to call it a pitcher. The snowman tore off a chunk of snow from its body and threw it at Gyeomyang.
“Snowman Archer.”
Earlier, I changed the snowman soldier into an archer, but this time I created a new one. Every time the snowman threw a snowball, it drained the magical power of the divine spirit, but up to ten snowmen can be easily endured with the regeneration of mana.
The process of recovering mana is a painful process. It feels like the wind is blowing through your bones. Since there were no more casualties, I didn’t use the new magic in a hurry. The more mana you use in a short period of time, the more painful it is to recover.
“Snowman Soldier”
This time, he summoned dozens of 50cm tall small snowman soldiers. He summoned snowman archers and soldiers as his mana filled up. As the number of snowmen increased, Gyeomyang began to show signs of running away. Shingi was so concerned about the placement of the snowmen that steam rose from his head. When the opportunity finally came, Shingi poured all his magic power into unleashing his magic.
“Ice fence, a thousand layers”
It is said to be a thousand layers, but in reality, it is only a few dozen. The ice fence, which had become stronger through the Sword of Judgement, surrounded the slow-moving humility, hesitating whether to escape. The snowman soldiers immediately began to charge humiliatingly at humility.
The ice fence, which was stronger than before, restricted the movement of the humble, and the agile snowman soldiers rushed towards the humble. The archers worked together to throw snowballs, creating a snowy net instead of a fire net. Although the humble specialized in rushing, changing direction, and evasion, it eventually collapsed under the ignorant barrage of Shingi.
The snowman soldier that hit the right hind leg of the humble turned into a small snowball and stuck to the humble leg. Although it was a small snowball, it was quite heavy, and on top of that, it attacked the humble body with its cold attribute. It wasn’t just a simple cold attribute, but also an enhanced lumping attribute, so the humble’s magic resistance was unable to properly resist it.
Preservation properties such as the Ice Chest and the Clumping property such as the Snowman are not offensive properties, so they are less affected by magic resistance. It is difficult to shake off these two magics unless you are a monster specialized in resistance, such as a sieve.
The slightly slower Humility was more careful to avoid the snowman soldier’s physical assault. As a result, he was unable to avoid the snowballs thrown by the archers. The snowballs, which were much smaller than the snowman soldier’s transformation, clung to Humility’s body.
As the snowballs on Humble’s body grew, one of the knights who had been waiting for an opportunity rushed in and cut off Humble’s neck. There are monsters of the 4th grade that have a set point of view, and there are monsters of the 3rd grade that have a point of view that is arbitrary, but from the 5th grade onwards, they are similar to animals or humans.
Humility quickly turned around and struck the knight’s chest with his horn. The knight’s sword slightly scratched Humility’s body, but he quickly recovered. If he had been lucky enough to cut off Humility’s head, it would have been a great achievement, but the monster’s reaction and physical abilities were far inferior to those of a well-trained knight.
The knight’s intrusion caused the siege net to shake, and Gyeomyang tried to escape. Since it was a monster, it had snowballs hanging from it, and if the knight ran into a snowman, there was a high possibility that he would die instantly. So, the snowmen around the knight were removed, and a gap was created in the siege net.
If he were a god, he would have appropriately used the knight’s intrusion with the power of Field Command 10, but the god lacks talent and experience. He quickly moved the snowmen to re-establish the encirclement, but Gyeomyang quickly escaped the hastily constructed encirclement of the snowmen.
“Ice box.”
As soon as Gyeomyang escaped the encirclement, Shingi quickly used magic substitution. With the substitution, he changed the snowballs attached to Gyeomyang’s body into ice and used the ice box magic. Since the opponent was moving at high speed, and the basic resistance of a 6th-grade monster, he was not able to use the magic properly because it was a hastily made magic rather than waiting for an opportunity.
Although it was not able to spread properly, one of Humility’s hind legs was trapped in the ice box, slowing down his speed. Since it was not restraining his entire body, if the supply of mana was cut off, the ice box would disappear. At that moment, as if he knew the circumstances of the new god, the knight commander blocked Humility’s front and attacked Humility’s head with a shining sword.
Even though he could not ignore the Knight Commander’s attack, he stopped walking and cautiously dealt with it. After blocking the Knight Commander’s triple attack with his horn, Gyeomyang tried to accelerate again, but it was already too late. The snowmen mercilessly attacked Gyeomyang’s body.
Shin-gi disregarded the safety of others and rushed the snowman. Until then, he had been controlling the snowman with a headache, but he was holding it steady, but he was angry because of the knight who sprinkled ash.
As the snowmen’s momentum grew fierce, the knight commander retreated after three attacks. The knights who were running to help the knight commander also stopped walking. The snowmen’s momentum was clearly different from before.
As the snowmen covered the body of the humble, the ice gradually increased. As the snowballs turned into ice, the ice box grew bigger and bigger. When all the snowmen disappeared, half of the humble body was trapped in ice. The three most powerful knights, including the commander, took turns attacking the humble. They were trying not to give him a chance to escape the ice box.
Even when one of the legs was sealed, the humility continued to change positions, making it difficult for the divine being to deploy magic. Some magic can be used regardless of the opponent’s position, but magic such as the Ice Box must be precisely determined in range.
The new form of humility was finally stopped by the efforts of the knights and the ice box magic that was spread by replacing the snowball. Shingi gathered the remaining mana and completed the ice box magic. The mana consumption was very high because he rearranged the snowman magic into the ice box, but he quickly recovered the mana with the stronger recovery ability.
It used to take a little over an hour to restore all my mana, but now it takes less than half an hour. The messages are quiet these days, so I don’t know exactly what my status is. It said my body was hindering my stats, but the message didn’t tell me if my current body was the best or if there was room for improvement.
Shingi used his psychic powers to lift the ice block onto the roof of the engine carriage. Shingi, Andre, the Knight Commander, and Marquis Berkam boarded the engine carriage carrying the ice. Those with higher ranks quickly rode the engine carriage and traveled to the capital, while those with lower ranks walked back. Since the engine carriage would not start and had to be dragged to the capital by a rope, it would take much longer to arrive than if they simply walked.
When they arrived at the capital, many citizens came out to see how the rumor had spread. The awakened ones, whom the Japanese refugees called ninja, were included in the knights, but Shingi did not know. So when the hunt was successful, the royal family immediately found out and widely announced to the citizens that they had killed a 6th-grade monster.
“You’re still alive, so I’ll kill you.”
The divine spirit, who had fully recovered his mana, transformed some of the ice that had imprisoned Humble into ‘thorny icicles’. The thorny icicles spun around and pierced Humble’s neck, then transformed into ‘ice thorn flowers’ and cut off Humble’s neck. After confirming that Humble was definitely dead, the divine spirit canceled the magic.
Soon, a large man who looked like a night watchman came with a magic saw and cut off Humility’s horns. It took eight sharpenings to cut off two horns. Humility’s horns were given to Berkam and Singi.
The corpse of the humble was handled very carefully, not even a single drop of blood being shed. The blood, flesh, skin, and bones were all used to make cosmetics. The corpse of the humble was such that nothing was wasted. After disposing of the corpse of the humble, the queen gave a speech to the knights and the royal family.
Shingi, who had been listening to the queen with patience out of consideration for her dignity, finally opened his mouth as the conversation became longer and longer.
“Your Majesty, it seems our contract is not yet concluded.”
The queen looked at the knight commander. When the knight commander shook his head, the queen bit her lip slightly. She was thinking of dealing with the divine spirit if possible, regardless of whether it was a credit or not. So she asked the knight commander for his opinion, but the knight commander shook his head and said it was impossible.
The Knight Commander remembered that when Humility attacked, Shingi used two magic spells silently. And he also confirmed that he was fine even after being hit by Humility’s horn. It is no exaggeration to say that Shingi alone subdued Humility. There is no way that the Knight Commander could do anything about someone who could subdue a 6th-grade monster that the power of the Canadian royal family could not subdue.
At the queen’s nod, the second princess took off the silver earring from her right ear and handed it to Shingi. Shingi accepted the earring and thanked the queen and princess with an elegant gesture. Then he put the earring on his right ear.
“Frost Mirror.”
The earring remained on Shingi’s right ear without changing into a tattoo. A refreshing smile appeared on Shingi’s lips.
