「Err, how do we make this move?」
I dug up and investigated a tank that was frozen solid.
The dwarf inside was still alive, but since he’s frozen and can’t move, the knight had secured them.
Putting that aside, the tanks…
「The driver system has no engine, no tires, no tracks, it’s just a metal box covered in divine iron armor?」
Since the appearance resembles a tank, I was sure that it was structured similar to tanks from my past life. However, when I look at the actual thing up close, it was different.
Nasha-chan and Sophie-oneesama were disassembling the tank while tilting their heads, they speak of their opinions.
「I think it’s probably magic metal. I heard that the dwarves can make the metal they create move however they want」
「The difference in material is obvious. Everything except the armor is brittle. It breaks easily」
Certainly, everything except from the divine iron placed on top was fragile. Since Sophie-oneesama used magic attack on the exposed bottom part, it easily created a hole, I think the other knights could’ve defeated them if they aimed for the bottom part too. Just like the turtle’s shell, only the upper part is sturdy, the underside is very brittle.
「Perhaps the bottom part is used to make legs to run. That’s why they can’t put on the divine iron armor」
「Legs?」
That’s an unexpected feat. There’s no super tech or secret magic artifact from the dwarves. Are the dwarves in this world just brute-force types.
「Hey. Why magic can’t pass through, yet the dwarve’s magic metal remains? Are the dwarves making magic metal from magic?」
Lina-chan, who had been blasting magic towards the armor, posed a question to us. She tried searing it, shooting with fireballs, and strike it with magic matter, but it’s all nullified, it seems like she can’t even touch the divine armor.
She’s a little grumpy because her magic didn’t connect at all.
「That’s obvious. The magic metal made by the dwarves have already become an independent entity as matter. Divine iron cannot nullify matter」
「Lina-chan didn’t study enough. Mana and Magic are different. We use mana, but the Shinryu use Magic. Yet it’s the same」
「It’s different, but the same?」
「You don’t remember? We learned this from class…」
‘Lessons?’ Her face says, but we just learned it last year, Lina-chan.
Kiryu’s mana is temporary, it disappears if the Kiryu stops, but Shinryu’s magic is permanent, it lasts forever.
Mana has Power. It’s nothing but a fleeting illusion when the power stops. In contrast, Magic has Law. They continue to exist, engraving laws of the world.
The magic power substance created by the Kiryu will eventually disappear, but the magic law substance of the dwarves will not vanish and continue to remain. The reason why Mana vanishes when touched by divine iron and magic metal doesn’t must be that.
「When you think about it, this tank is well made.
They can defend against the enemy Kiryu attacks, and utilize their own strengths It’s the ideal weapon, forcing your strengths to someone who don’t want it.
If such things are suddenly brought forth without any prior information, even a knightly order boasting great strength deserves to suffer catastrophic damage.
「This turret isn’t a gunpowder cannon; it’s a Mana-type large ballista that shoots a large amount of divine iron pellets, and the designer is undoubtedly a real genius.」
They took revolutionary ideas into real weapons, even achieving mass production.
One might wonder if this talent could have been expressed in another field, but the fateful history between the dragon and the dwarf must have prevented that choice.
「Hmm?」
When I touched the turret made of divine iron, I feel a lot of unease.
What’s this feeling? Somewhere…
Gogogogo….
「ーEh?」
Deep in my sight, the middle slope of the great mine opened up.
Then a humanpod weapon shining in gold appears from the hangar.
「Ha, haha, what the hell? No way, they’re running that with magic metal and divine iron?」
Could they make a giant humanoid figure out of magic metal and put divine iron fully body armor on top of it? Maybe that’s not impossible?
Thud. Thud.
While we were frozen in surprise, the golden humanoid weapon, glittering like the sunshine, moves out like a giant. They were taking steps one at a time, checking their movementーthen they ran off at incredible speed.
「Everyone, attack the ground, stop that giant!!!」
Lina-chan and the knights started moving as I made a desperate shout.
Countless mana shots pierce the grassland, gouge the earth, and created massive holes.
But the golden giant, contrary to its seemingly dull appearance, moves with light steps, avoids the hole, sometimes raises the earth to create footholds, and runs past the water currents that try to catch it, leaving them behind.
The golden giant who ran from the Great mines to the Lord’s residence in an instant, hold a giantーtruly giant golden divine iron axe in his hands.
Then it was swung down.
「ーーIs that it? The power of the one who claims to be the king among these stone-eaters?」
Ice wall.
Before one knew it, a transparent ice wall appeared in front of the giant, stopping the giant axe swinging down.
「To think that they bite back with such strength…」
There’s one blue figure on the wall.
Staring at the enemy appearing before them with a freezing gaze.
「You must pay with your life!!」
The great lord who ruled the northern lands struck the magic of ice mass.
