Lord Of Puppets Chapter 67 – Improving craft

(Honestly, I don’t really like this.) – thought Thauma.

(Making bombs.)

(This will make use up materials and instantly lose them the monts bombs activate.)

(But it may be the best strategy that could deal with bear beastman.)

(The main problem with that enemy is not his speed or power, it is his defense.)

(The only things that scares that man were the crossbow.) – thought Thauma as it picked up one of the crossbows it made and fired it at the wooden shield, easily piercing object with the shot.

(This is the only thing he really was scared off.)

(But would crossbow bolts really kill him?)

(I saw his defense. It managed to stop the blades with him not even trying to block their attacks.)

(When he was outside, he did blocked attacks from the standard golem.)

(Maybe their attacks could wound him too?)

(But he was able to block quiet easily their hits.)

(There is also the earth magic...I need to destroy that wall AND land a hit at the sa ti.)

(And if explosions is strong enough, it could possible do both of these things.....Yes.... Yes!)

(This may work out!)

(If I create powerful enough explosion.... No. Series of explosions would also do the job.)

(That man abnormal defense back then.... It could had been ’enchantnt’.)

(Enchantnt are form of magic that focuses on bestowing powers onto the objects or people.) – thought Thauma as it picked up one of the books nearby that has written on its cover: "Magic for dummies – Basic schools of magic and spells".

(.....Here.)

("Enchantnt.")

("One of the main schools of magic that focuses on the art of empowering object or person.")

("Enchantnt magic grants the ’target’ said abilities or benefit.")

("For example empowering their attack power, increasing their defense or their speed for example.")

("Enchantnt are usually focused on either object or person.")

"...."

(Considering how back then he took on the hit with his body, he must had been using ’person’ type enchantnts.)

(Hm..... Honestly.... Maybe I should learn few enchantnts myself?)

(But how strong is his own enchantnt?)

(Depending on the mage, the fire power of the exactly sa spell may varies.)

(Was that person going all out there? Or was he holding back?)

(Not only him, but what remaining soldiers? The soldiers that were with him.)

(There is also question on how I would caught them off guard.)

(Even if I do make weapon that could possibly explode and take down their defenses in one go, would that kill them?)

(What if the first explosions won’t do it and they will keep their guard up afterwards?)

(No.... I need to ambush them and make sure they get destroyed in single go.)

(But how do I do this in the first place?)

(....)

"!"

(Wait.... That is, it!)

(I can just make "that" into a weapon!)

(But I can’t ss it up.)

(If I do, then things may..... No. I cannot depend solei on the "bombs".)

(I need to continue researching other things.)

(Especially the Artificial Mana Organ.)
