(POV Snake Armor Soldier)

The fight between the female titan and Shigure - sama continued with her advantage for a while… no one in our group doubted that she would win in the end!

Also, it was obvious that the titan girl was starting to get desperate for not being able to finish off Shigure - sama…

From those who could also transform like her in our group, we knew that they could only maintain that form for a predetermined amount of time. Surely the same thing was happening with this girl… so that was probably the reason for her desperation, she should be running out of time.

But, probably because of that, things in her began to change!

“…”

On the body of this female titan began to form a blue layer of what looked like a crystal of a light blue color similar to ice! Although it wasn't on her entire body, the parts she attacked with did!!

…It was almost like the bone armor of the titan that we had seen that was near Alexander-sama! It might even be even tougher than such armor… since the swords Shigure -sama used were unable to penetrate the crystal and ended up breaking!

Well… she was still much more exposed than that other titan… so, if she was just attacking more vulnerable parts, then there shouldn't be a problem for Shigure -sama. 

The problem was that... it seems that somehow this had not liked her! As if she was not satisfied that her swords broke and could not cut the titan!!

S-She also seems to have her pride in her abilities… not for nothing was she the sword goddess to many in the citadel!

Unfortunately, she couldn't do much to change things. 

Though she kept attacking while changing the breaking blades, she soon ran out of more of these…but I don't think it was due to Shigure-sama's lack of skill. Before she ran out of the various blades put on the [Three-Dimensional Movement Equipment], marks began to appear on the crystal that the female titan had formed on her limbs.

…I think the problem was that those blades were just too thin and brittle.

Then something happened that changed things again. In the distance from here, it was clearly seen that the armored titan that was fighting with another titan and Alexander-sama suddenly tried to escape from this place!

But obviously, it wouldn't be that easy to escape from Alexander-sama! In the next moment, that titan who was now without arms fell to the ground to not get up again! Yes, these people were definitely amazing!! 

Even though those of us in our group didn't have a hard time defeating a normal titan, one like that armored titan would be a completely different thing... many of us had practiced with some of the citadel who had that titan form, and such training was the most hated by our soldiers!! 

It was just fucking troublesome to do it!!

Also, if an armored titan tries to run away, maybe the only thing we could do is watch him get away… it would be almost impossible to stop him! Therefore, it is not strange that all the soldiers here shouted praises to Alexander-sama for this!!

And we weren't the only ones who noticed this... seeing who should be her partner fall must-have represented many things for the female titan! She probably saw that she would have a similar future if she didn't do something soon or just the nervousness and fear started to get stronger in her… whatever she felt, her attack intensified!

The good thing was that maybe Shigure -sama also thought that she had wasted quite a bit of time in this fight…unlike before, a sword that was as long as she appeared in her hands!

…well, maybe it was just because she didn't have any more blades like the ones we all use, so she had no choice but to draw that sword.

However, holding that sword, things seemed to totally change… the aura around her was much more intense than before! And it's not only us who feel it, that titan who had started attacking desperately even had to stop because of this!!

…we all swallowed the saliva in our mouths while witnessing this. I think it was clear to everyone that things were about to come to a conclusion in this fight!

As the two of them stared at each other for a while, the first to move was the female titan…she lunged at Shigure sama while placing her sword at her side with the end downwards holding the hilt at the height of her head…

Unexpectedly, when she moves to avoid the attack, her attack is not with her sword... as she jumps back a little, what appear to be several stars are thrown... and almost as if they have a life of their own or are remote-controlled, they curve avoiding the arms of the titan to reach their goal... her eyes!! 

“GRAAAWW!!!”

In the next moment, probably reflexively, the female titan raises her hands to her eyes as she lets out a loud scream!

…it had completely lowered its lair! And of course, Shigure -sama didn't miss out on such an opportunity… 

After her feet hit the ground again due to her jump, this time she's the one who lunged forward! In an instant, she was standing in front of the foot of the female titan, and then… the only thing I could see afterward was that her sword had moved… it was so fast that it almost seemed like an illusion!

But that wasn't the most surprising… what shocked all of us who watched it was that in the next second the titan's foot is cut off… but not once, at least there were ten pieces of meat that fell to the ground! And most importantly, that included the crystal that titan had covered herself with to protect her body!!

Losing one of its supporting feet, the Titan loses its balance and begins to fall to the ground.

So, like any person who was about to fall, the first thing she does is try to use one of her hands to support herself… probably now she didn't care too much about the damage to the eyes or that she couldn't see.

Unfortunately for that titan, when her hand hits the ground, what it's expected was the same result as her leg! Her whole arm is cut into several pieces of meat by Shigure - sama's sword!!

With two limbs amputated and her vision lost, the next thing that happens is not a surprise… to put it in simple words, the titan is practically dismembered until the person's body is exposed!

“So things are over here too…

Also, just as I thought, that girl is really dangerous… I don't understand why Alexander was worried about her! She would probably be the last of us to die if we had to face something that put our lives at risk! ”

“Well… it's for the best that Shigure -san is alright, right?

Also, Annie has also been defeated… I didn't expect her to be someone who could transform into a titan as well.”

“…certainly, the important thing is that I will receive my boxes of donuts without having to do anything else!”

“…”

Because I was completely focused on Shigure - sama's fight, I didn't notice when Horo -sama along with another girl each carrying a boy appeared!

…on the other hand, I wish she wouldn't say such words… if something happened that could take their lives, then wouldn't that mean total annihilation for us?!

“H-Horo-sama!”

“…okay, you don't need to get so stiff… it's not like I'm going to eat you all, you know? Surely, like those titans, no one wouldn't taste good… anyway, Alexander told me to you take care of this boy, he wants him to be transported to the citadel and kept in custody and guarded."

“Y-Yes!”

Everyone here understood that the person who... Horo -sama simply throws to the ground was most likely the one who was the armored titan, so the captain who was the strongest among us is the one who steps forward to pick up the boy… although, in doing so, he sees Horo - sama with a certain nervousness.

I-It wasn't a very nice joke to hear from her about devouring us… since the first thing that comes to mind is her wolf form! I-It was a joke, right? Or was she being serious?!! 

Apparently, although many probably wondered this, no one dares to say it out loud...

[ Crusshhh !!]

“ D-Damn it, now what happens?!! ”

While listening to Horo - sama's instructions, in the place where Shigure -sama was, something unexpected occurs again! The girl who had been exposed when her titan form was completely severed, just like with her titan form, crystals start to form on her skin!

Shigure -sama has to back away quickly because it seemed like anything close to that girl would end up just like her! Completely wrapped in crystal!!

“…t-his is troublesome”

““…””

Now that things had quieted down a bit, Shigure - sama's voice reaches us… and well, I think her words fell short!!! That was a bit dangerous, if she hadn't backed down in time, then probably everyone's head here would have been cut off by Alexander-sama if something happened to her!

…it was no secret what kind of relationship he had with these girls, so everyone could understand what would happen if after telling us to come help, then she ends up trapped in that crystal!

“Yes… how will we transport this girl there now? Well... that's not my problem either~."

““…””

Y-Yes, if we see it as Horo - sama says, then this was really a problem… and well, many of us can only sag our shoulders listening to her… since this is certainly our problem! 

If before we were asked to carry the boy that the captain now carried on his shoulders, then it stands to reason that it would be the same with this girl too!

…I wonder if we can tie several ropes around the crystal with the girl inside and carry it between several of us… that doesn't seem very easy!

“S- Shigure -san… can't you do anything to get Annie out? Alexander-sama wanted us to transport her along with Riner as well. ”

“U-n… I can try”

“ Whoooh~!!”

T-That girl who had been accompanying Horo - sama was quite good! Everyone can't help but send her grateful glances for this... but it seems that she didn't care about our situation either, she just wanted to carry out what Alexander-sama asked of her.

We are simply ignored… she was certainly a great soldier to put Alexander-sama's words as the only priority.

With her words, we all roll our eyes at Shigure -sama praying that she can do something, and hearing her reply, we all raise our hands while shouting with joy!

In the next moment, Shigure -sama starts to circle around the crystal containing the girl a few times as if examining it… then as if finally making up her mind, she takes a stance with the sword.

Now that we were closely observing this, surely it wasn't just the aura around her the only impressive thing... if you looked closely, something seemed to be moving on the blade of the sword! And whatever it was, such a thing sent chills down my spine!!

Then, when she's done making her preparations, the sword in an almost imperceptible movement... cuts again.

“F- Fuuu~…”

…and right after her sigh that she releases after finishing her attack, the crystal is cut into pieces releasing the girl!

“…you really were able to cut this crystal, right? It seems that if I used my claws or teeth I would not be able to do it… how did you do it? ”

“It was amazing, Shigure -san…”

Not only were the two of them shocked, everyone here was too!

“I saw…A-Alex doing something similar before, so I thought to do the same…so, I cut the crystal…”

" Shoo shoo shoo ~ ! "

"This is... s-ecret to him, or... maybe he will be a bit annoyed since he couldn't do very well yet."

““…””

…after Shigure - sama gives her answer, a little mouse comes out of her chest and it seems like it's telling her something. Then as if understanding its shrieks, she turns back to Horo -sama and the other girl to say that.

At this point, I was feeling quite impressed by two things…

First, it was a surprise to me that she could so easily master something that she had only seen. And the second… because I never thought I would want to be a little mouse!!

…and seeing the faces of my partners, I know I wasn't the only one with such thoughts!
