196,

The front line has been divided into two sides - north and south. In order to tightly grip the demons, Daniel has set up a trap from behind.

From the southern part of Seven Sins City to the southwest end of the continent lies a valley inhabited by a group of Crimson Flame Dragons.

After bestowing the Four Lords' honor upon Allen, the Summoner of Snakes, Carl, sets off for that place alone.

In addition to allowing long-distance communication, Carl's snakes also have another use - luring enemies.

His task is to lure down the Crimson Flame Dragons that are preparing for winter on the volcano.

As the dragons appear, the Water Sect in the south dispatches its army without any knowledge of the situation, in order to suppress the danger.

The righteous Water Sect and the evil demons are natural enemies. If the demons try to escape to the south, they would encounter the Water Sect.

Under the circumstances of intercepting their southern retreat, a competent commander would concentrate most of their forces in the north.

First, let a few powerful elites guard the south, and then engage in a large-scale battle or retreat in the vast territory of the north.

But after much thought, Daniel believes that if it's Arrogance, he would choose a more sinister tactic.

The same strategy, but not guarding, rather, a surprise attack.

Opening a path for a surprise attack in the south while simultaneously restraining Allen's army in the north.

This one percent worry has now been resolved.

Chio's appearance has changed Daniel's plans.

Based on this new plan, two days after confirming the witch Yuna, Cyclone, his two wives, Shia, Chio, and Churchill have arrived in front of the Forest of Lust, near the Tower of Desires.

Late at night, Cyclone and his two wives rest by the campfire.

Churchill went to sleep by himself, while Chio returned to the carriage.

Learning about his sister's immense power, Shia is very worried. In order to stay by Chio's side, she has recently been keeping a close eye on her.

Cyclone believes this is what Chio wants the most.

However, when he sees the giant sword behind Shia, Little Dragon suddenly speaks.

"I didn't expect you to have the ability to be a master~"

"Hmm?"

"I'm talking about Shia~"

"Oh!?"

"How did you come up with the idea? To train Shia as a sword wielder."

Shia's sword, Cyclone remembers that at that time, he seemed to have put a piece of Magicite Crystal on the sword to protect King Allen.

At that moment, Cyclone realized that this giant sword was some kind of great masterpiece.

As for the reason for choosing this sword, Cyclone certainly wouldn't reveal the truth.

A huge and heavy sword, definitely not something a child can swing, thus lowering Shia's performance in the Allen Martial Arts Tournament, and so on.

"Of course, I have a knack for 'developing' things~"

To avoid being discovered, Cyclone changes the subject.

"By the way, that kid seems to have gotten a lot stronger."

"Because of you, of course."

"Me?"

Little Dragon looks at Cyclone.

"Yeah. That sword must have been very expensive."

"Oh...actually...it's not that expensive..."

I can't say the reason, but I can tell you how I got this giant sword.

I remember Cyclone ran to the nearest weapon shop at that time.

In the shop, there was an old man with grey hair who looked very poor. And he was trying to sell the giant sword he had in his hands to the shopkeeper.

"Shopkeeper, look at this giant sword I crafted. Is it worth a thousand gold coins?"

Cyclone looked at it. Not only was the sword huge, but the blade was also full of holes, like it was made by a crazy person.

But at the same time, wasn't this broken sword exactly what Cyclone wanted?

He wanted to take a closer look, but then he noticed a foul smell coming from the crazy man...

Forget it, he decided not to look at it anymore.

Even the desire to see it had disappeared, so Cyclone turned around and gave up.

"Hey hey hey! Who do you think you are, kid!?"

As a result, when the other person saw Cyclone unwilling to even look at his giant sword, he immediately became angry.

"You little brat, just by looking at you, I can tell you're a useless piece of trash who can't even wield a sword. You haven't seen the world, my sword can even pierce through dragon scales!"

After being taunted like this by the other person, Cyclone clicked his tongue.

"Oh~ seems quite impressive, doesn't it?"

"What do you mean 'seems'!? This giant sword was crafted by me with all my effort, it's a magnificent masterpiece!"

"Oh, really? But compared to my sword, this one is just average."

"Damn it! My giant sword can even slay ancient god races! What can your sword do?"

The other person seemed to be showing off to the maximum, but for Cyclone, it was just child's play.

Cyclone took out a small sword from his pocket, which was less than ten centimeters long. The blade was not sharp, but rather very smooth, with a series of small round balls connected together.

Moreover, this sword was moving in Cyclone's hand.

"As for my sword, it can conquer every woman~"

After finishing the story, Cyclone looked at his two wives, who covered their eyes with one hand and seemed speechless.

"Well~ I exchanged this sword back in this way, and then paid the shop assistant to help me bring it back~"

It is said that on the day Cyclone obtained that giant sword, a crazy person was killed on the street for assaulting a young girl.
