Chapter 13 「Fighting Giants」
* * *
The landscape flew by at a such a rate that it was hard to tell how long we’d been following the two dragon mounts in front of us.
Unfortunately, I didn’t have something like a watch on me, but no more than thirty minutes had probably passed. Despite moving at such a high speed, there was still a gap between us and the other dragon mount.
Before long, some sort of village appeared ahead of the two tiger tribesmen’s mount.
We were still a good distance away, but everything seemed fine until the ground started to rumble as if the Mongol hoard was closing in.
Two silhouettes came over a small hill in the village’s vicinity. There were six tiger tribesmen, hailed for their fighting prowess, holding those creatures back.
“Are those the giants……?”
Ariane peaked her head up to at my question and took a look in front of us.
Despite the noise the charging dragon mount generated, I could still hear her breathing.
“Kyun! Kyun!”
Ponta barked in the giants’ general direction before she hurriedly coiled herself around my neck.
The giants the tiger tribesmen were fighting were slightly different from what I imagined.
First of all, they didn’t have any heads. Apart from the lack of a head, they did resemble humans like one would expect them to.
No, though I haven’t seen the animal in this world, a more accurate description would be a headless gorilla.
They stood six meters tall and their bodies were covered in black fur. Their thick, long arms held stone axes and they managed to carve out swaths of land with each swing.
In lieu of a head, these giants had a weird face sticking out of their chest.
They had no noses and their eyes were completely dilated. Their huge mouths were filled with yellow teeth and overall, they reminded me of a monster from a sci-fi show.
“They look like Ewaipanomas……”
Contrary to my careless remark, the battle between the tiger tribesmen and the black giants was a violent struggle.
It wasn’t possible for the tiger tribe to walk away from of this battle unscathed.
When a giant grappled one of tribesmen, their life was squeezed out of them. With that much damage, even using resurrection magic would be a wasted effort.
Besides, on the outskirts of the battlefield, I could see those who were too injured to move.
When they caught sight of their allies’ plight, the two riders in front of us increased their speed and charged at the giants.
As they approached the giants at breakneck speeds, a threatening wail rose from their mouths.
The two riders were in a headlong charge, and one of the giants’ delayed reactions left the side of its leg exposed. Two sets of dragon mount horns simultaneously collided with said leg.
However, I heard a dull thwack and saw that the dragon mount’s horns had broken off, the collision sending it flying.
The horns of a dragon mount didn’t give me the impression of fragile objects.
In other words, the defensive strength of these black giants was considerably high.
“……! This is going to be a troublesome opponent.
