Chapter 493 Third party (2)
Billy watched the ice titan while his monsters recovered his mana. Thanks to that, he noticed that the titan was acting quite weirdly… Even though Billy attacked the creature, it still wasn't doing anything. It was just standing… Something was off. Considering how tall the beast was, it shouldn't have a problem finding Billy.

"As expected, even that fucker can hide its status, even though it is dumb as a wall…" Billy thought. "That makes me wonder, is that really a power that the monster is using?"
Billy's original guess was that such monsters were like a defense mechanism of the world that activates when the world is in danger. He didn't want to admit it, but he considered that the arrival of the reincarnated individuals was something that the world didn't want. Hence, the world was using the titans to make things get in order again. Instead of just killing the reincarnated individuals, they were powering up, until they wiped them out… Even if they have to sacrifice some people of that world.
Thinking like that was rather troublesome, but Billy had to consider such a hypothesis. Regardless, the ice titan wasn't moving, and it wasn't doing that anything to bring back the ice cyclone, so Billy wondered how come a creature could be so stupid. In any case, that was probably for the better since he would need the help of the soldiers of that state to fight the beast. Still, without magic and with their specialty being melee fighting, a lot of them were bound to lose their lives.
"They are fighting to protect their homeland, so I shouldn't think too much about it," Billy said.
After half an hour, most of the soldiers of the capital had already moved and were ready to fight. The four were in front of them, and they all were wearing the armor of weird colors. Aside from the green and brown, there were others with purple and orange. Aside from Sei and the annoying guy who had showed up the other day, the others were quite nervous.
"I will be blunt… The easiest type of enemy for that thing is the melee ones," Billy said. "I will try to draw that thing's attention as much as possible, but its footsteps alone will kill dozens of your people."
"We didn't abandon this city because we knew that something like that would eventually happen," Sei said. "We are ready to die to protect our homeland."
That was pretty brave but dumb as well since they had one year to evacuate the capital. Nevertheless, there was a small chance they might survive instead of being exterminated like rats.

After that, Billy charged toward the titan. It would be better if he got the attention of the monster right from the beginning. Otherwise, the chances of the samurai surviving would be quite small. It was a pity that siege weapons were useless against something that big. Otherwise, Billy would have other uses for those guys.
In any case, it didn't take long for the ice titan to notice Billy. All of a sudden, Billy felt some mana below him, and then a massive ice spear emerged from the ground. With a swing of his glaive, Billy destroyed that without having the need to stop. He might be small compared to the monster, but he wasn't lacking in firepower.
As if the creature was just pretending to be dumb until now, it only used that attack once and then pointed both hands toward Billy. In the next moment, a massive cannon of cold wind hit the area where Billy had been and turned the place into a crystal forest. Billy had predicted something like that, so he used Flash to escape the attack and also approach the creature in a single instant. He suddenly appeared right in front of the knee of the creature, and then he swung his glaive with all his might.
A fissure appeared on the monster's right leg that went all the way to its belly. The monster also trembled due to the impact, but ice slowly covered the wound as if nothing had been there in the first place. Even before the wound could close, the monster tried to smash Billy with its right leg, but as for Billy, he just smirked. When the foot was about to crush him, he thrusted his spear toward the lower part of the foot, and he stopped the attack for a short while. When the height got a bit more troublesome, he used Light Spear.
The skill made several crackers appear on the beast's body, and it also made the ice titan lose its balance due to the unexpected movement. The ice titan even took a single step backward to fix its posture. In the end, Billy wasn't surprised that he could do something like that… His diamond glaive was that powerful, even at level one.
For the first time in a long while, Billy felt like his physical strength was higher than his magic power, but Billy couldn't get carried away with only that much.
"All right… Perhaps a well-aimed Gungnir will do the job," Billy thought.
All of a sudden, the area around the monster began to get cold, and Billy also felt his speed decreasing. It was a spell similar to Niffelheim, so Billy had no choice but to move away from the beast. The ice titan kept that spell going and then tried to kick Billy. Although he managed to jump to the side, the cold wind blasted by the sudden movement made Billy feel like he was inside a freezer… His cold Resistance wasn't much use against the Aura of the monster…
