The battle between Albert and Grasword grew more intense.
Because each of the commanders were fighting, the chain of command ceased in it’s functioning, as such, the troops fell into disorder.
However, such a matter was a trifling issue for the commanders in question――
Both of them had recognized the other as a worthy opponent and were enjoying the battle.
「Kakakakakaka! Quite the skill you have there, you amazed me.
To have a chance to cross swords with a person like you, it is a great honor as a warrior!」
「This is not by my skill.
Only by these, the equipment which was given to me by my master Rimuru, that have granted me such strength.
If it was with my former equipment, I would already be defeated without being able to so much as endure the pressure of your sword.」
Albert calmly turned aside Grasword’s praise.
It was true, however it was only by Albert’s ability that the power of the God grade equipment was drawn out.
「Ha! No need to be humble. Amongst the Giants, there are only a few who can fight me.
Although we were going to do a pincer attack on Demon Lord Ruminas’ army with the angels ――the situation is now beyond our control.
However, defeating one of the enemy generals is also an important duty. Since there is no lack of opponents!!
Yet…… still, my younger brother Fenn really picked the short straw.
Even though he was this precious opportunity where he can rampage as much as he wants, he received a weak magician as his opponent.
Certainly knowledge is wonderful, as a person that man may have a favorable impression, however……
Because we have『Magic Nullity』, a magician is utterly useless.」
He exclaimed so whilst brandishing his Great Sword.
He planned to make Albert, who was worried about his master, become agitated by his words. A small mistake would lead to death. It was an excellent tactic to induce unrest to the mind of his opponent.
On the other hand, Albert, without changing his expression――
「It seems you are clearly misunderstanding something.
Certainly, I, as the guard of Adalman-sama, am the one in charge of the vanguard.
However, I would like to ask you to not forget this――
Adalman-sama, as one of the 12 Guardian Lords of Rimuru-sama, is far stronger than me!
You understand what that means, right?」
He said that and denied Grasword’s words.
Grasword muttered “Ho?”, and raised one of his eyebrows.
Then he suddenly raise his sword over his head without speaking further.
His strategy to provoke his opponent seemed to have failed, then, in that case he will just beat him from the front. Grasword decided on such a plain and simple tactic.
「Fufufu, is that so? In that case it’s good that Fenn will truly enjoy his battle.
Oh well. Then I shall accomplish my duty!」
