Frost didn't have anything else with him item wise, but he did tell Leo an abridged version of his encounter with Valend the frost giant, which caused another frown to appear on his face.
Frost giants weren't unheard of in the monster stampedes, but they were certainly a rarity and never encountered near beginning of the late stages. Alas this wasn't any old stampede, the current six B-ranks beyond the northern wall was evidence of that.
Leo took in this new information with a sigh before Frost and Kiba took flight to the northern wall following the young noble's orders.
Frost landed near Hamon who was still exuding his aura in a threatening manner and staring down the seething rindars, taunting them to make a move.
"Colonel" Frost spoke while dismounting Kiba.
"Oh Leo finish telling you what's what and putting you to work already." Hamon smiled wildly as heard Frost's voice and noticed that the eldest rindar's gaze was no longer on him.
'Looks like I'm no longer the most hated.' Hamon internally mocked but also analysed the dangers of such a situation. Frost's level of strength made him vulnerable to the attacks of the rindars far more than himself who previously held the focus of the enemy commander.
A young up and coming adventurer who was not only highly skilled and brave but was close friends with the Viscount and his family, nothing could be allowed to happen to him.
He eyed the eldest rindar with no small amount of trepidation, large doses of fury can make someone act illogically regardless of their intelligence.
"Yeah he said that we needed to survive for another four days, at that point serious reinforcements will arrive." Frost nodded his head before turning to face the gaze that threatened to burn a hole in his cheek.
'For someone with an extra two arms he's being awful petty about losing just one.' Frost smirked towards the eldest rindar, fully taunting him before turning back to Hamon.
"I handed over some supplies as well so hopefully that will make our jobs easier until then."
"Much appreciated Frost, I'll make sure to put them to good use." Hamon gave a strong nod and thanked him.
"According to Bastion and Ryuu you're someone with martial skills, chakra as well as ice magic correct?" Hamon placed his hand under his chin and rubbed it while in thought, a habit he had developed.
"Correct though my magic is slightly weaker than my glaive mastery and chakra control I've got no issue casting 2nd circle spells and even a few 3rd circles. Do you need me to reinforce the magic corps?" Personally he wanted to re-join the frontlines, using his glaive and chakra to cut down swaths of D and C-rank enemies for their glorious DP and stabilise his advanced mastery.
"You can take a break now old man you've earned it." Ryuu's eyes shook before he let out a sigh, the memory of their first meeting flashing before his eyes.
At that point he aggressively pressured Frost with his aura trying to make him fall to his knees as he believed he was an enemy that sought to harm his daughter. Only a few months had passed since then yet now Frost stood before him on equal grounds, his aura fully realised, a proper B-rank fighter. The young will always surpass the old, Frost was a clear basis for that statement.
"Just so you know your regular [ice bolt spell] won't cut it here you need to at least know and be able to cast 2nd circle spells repeatedly such as [blizzard], [ice ball] or [ice lance]. Only they will be strong enough to have some impact." To be honest an ice user really wasn't much good here given the type of enemies so even 2nd circle spells of that element would have minor affects at best.
Frost's smile slowly stretched from ear to ear making him look cocky before his eyes glinted and he began casting a spell he purchased a couple days ago.
"[Ice burn like flames and freeze thine enemy in an explosion of cold fire, freezing fire ball]" Frost summoned his mana and generated a complicated magic crest before him that summoned an azure ball of fire similar to the one Ryuu utilised earlier except it was cold instead of hot.
The ball of high mortal ranked cold flames fired off in a parabola over the northern wall before crashing down into a group of ice trolls.
Boooooommmm!
With an explosion of freezing fire the ice trolls were blown outward, their chests covered in chilling burns that sapped their physical strength and sent jolts of pain throughout their bodies with every breath. Two ice trolls had been significantly wounded from this single 3rd circle spell a fact that drew the attention of the rindars and other B-rank monsters.
No one as of yet had used cold flame spells meaning Furano had received new reinforcements.
"Well will this work? I've also got some regular 3rd circle ice spells that can serve as crowd control instead of straight up damage dealers." Frost looked on at the shocked expressions of Ryuu, Jessie as well as the other members of the magic corps.
Cold flame magic was a very specialised class that only a select few could utilise, Frost was one of those few.
Ryuu's lips twitched as he felt his decades of magic training was nothing but a joke in front of Frost this endlessly talented brat. But in the end he was his friend and could only feely happy about his improvements.
"Yeah that'll work right Jess?" He asked his current colleague and vice leader of the magic corps.
"Certainly you'll make a fine addition to the magic corps so keep firing, Ryuu's not the only one who could use a good break hehehehe." Jessie replied with sparkling eyes and chuckled as a weight was lifted from her shoulders. Her physical state being not much better than Ryuu's.
Frost nodded his head and took up position on the platform before casting his [freezing fire ball] once again as requested.
