Master Of None

"Think of a golem made of sand. Falling apart and reforming itself. Now imagine if they could also get stronger and solidify their bodies with some intelligence. Sandstone and other things. They have a core made of jewels. Often they live in groups and will often pool their energy together to make other sand giants when they find valuable gems. They are dangerous. Hard to kill. And they will hoard valuable treasures they find within the stones and lands beneath the desert or from those that travel it."

The group looked at Ethan as he looked around at them. It was clear that the sand giants were a fairly hated monster by the Fel empire angels as a whole. The simple reason would be that they had caused a lot of issues since this desert fiasco started. The undead were one thing, but very tough monsters that could form their body over and over were an issue.

"The longer they live the harder they are to handle. Some of the oldest will have bodies made of the toughest sandstone hardened by their constant gathering of earth elemental mana. They also are unaffected by sandstorms once they reach over a year of age because of the tougher sandstone bodies."

"The worst is that when we damage them, they can fall nearly to pieces and reform. Their limbs can be remade from sand using their mana. They can just start over with a fresh body if the gems that they use to house their mana is not handled. It is ridiculous and deadly." Ethan had shown a little more emotion than clearly intended. But that was fine. He had to make sure that he got the danger across. Without this point he could send all these soldiers to death.

"It is a worthless endeavor to escape from them as well. They have the potential to be able to melt their bodies back in to sand. They move through it close to the speed of the saw tooth sandworms. If they are able to remain below you, then they may drag you down like quicksand. Naturally, this is different for the older sand giants. They will not be able to break their body apart so easily because of the toughness they created."

There was a lot of information to absorb. But when the earth mappers created an image of one of the sand giants then proceeded to show multiple forms that they had witnessed, every soldier knew the dangers. Whether they wanted to fight or not would be ignored. The sand giants would be an issue no matter what.

"If we have Terron here he could cause them issues when reforming their bodies. But now we are limited because he is still with the wyverns. It appears we have left the wrong dragon behind." Current was a little surprised. He spoke but it was more of a surprising, oh no, feeling towards himself. He felt he had made a mistake. It was a rare feeling for him.

"If Terron were here we would have let him handle it all." Ignus mocked Current then grabbed a pile of sand from the map and heated it. "I will melt it in to glass. They can not reform from that, can they?" This was a good point.

Ignus was a dragon and had the hottest head out of all of them. He could surely lose his focus and go on a rampage against the undead with little repercussions until he ran out of mana. But using his head, he brought out a vital weakness that he could exploit. Glass.

Sand was sometimes able to be melted. As a fire dragon, Ignus had lived in a volcano, lava lands, and many other places with temperatures that could melt ores and rocks easily. Now his flames could do the same after his studies. Therefore, why would he not be able to melt the entire sand giant in to a solid piece of sand glass?

Furthermore, the sand glass could work to trap the body parts that did not melt inside it. It could trap sand giants completely for a long time if not forever. A way to trap them for the study of the Fel empire while also allowing the soldiers to safely pass through.

"If things get worse, then we can fly in to the sky and attempt to attack from there too. No need to worry about underground quicksand attacks." Ventus added more to the strategy, she didn't mind having to bring the soldiers in to the air again. It would save lives and make sure they were still a strong army to fight the undead.

The last benefit would be restoring the supply chain to the soldiers that the Fel empire already sent in to the desert. They had been cut off while fighting the undead. To them, even seeing one flask of water would be enough to send them to the moon and back. The morale of hearing that they had a solid way to get back and forth food and water was enough to push them to greater heights.

"First we work with fire then we work with light. That will be the goal. We can start traveling. Ventus will cause the sand tornado that should form to travel away from us. Then Ignus will handle the sand giants and make sure that they stay trapped. Ventus will be our safety net. She can save us if young sand giants try to trap us underground."

Walker was sure that all the soldiers were agreeing. Even the Fel angels were massively impressed by the speed that their plans were coming together with the addition of the Genesis soldiers. "From there we will meet the Fel empire forces and resupply, heal, and prepare them. That leaves Mordant, Midnight, and Onyx to go exploring in to the shadows with the dragonkin under Mordant. If any Fel empire darkness affinity soldiers can sneak, they will fall under him."

"Of course, We can make sure that the scouting is done together and with perfect skill usage." Ethan agreed wholly with this. He did not see any negative to this. Only benefits.

"From there, we will let Rise prepare the light attacks to break down large groups of undead. That will be the way inside wherever we need to be so that we can handle the thing causing all this. Meanwhile, everyone else will be guarding and watching for intruders. For thieves trying to steal away knowledge they want to use for evil. Slime breeder, demon king, or whatever the last ally he has is; sloth."

Walker was not foolish. He knew that the last remaining mysterious sin title holder had to be Sloth. How could he not? Every other sin was accounted for. The slime bread had already proven himself to be Envy. he had partially said it in everything he did through slimes and in stealing things away.

Furthermore, Walker was sure that they would see some sign of the demon king's intervention. This place had too much to not do so. Immortal undead would make to be the most powerful army something evil could ever have. A deadly force that would stop at nothing while continuing whatever it was ordered to do. Something that could haunt the nightmares of every living thing in existence.

"That only means that we have one thing left." Su looked around at everyone and motioned to the supplies and the other items prepared. "We need to gather whatever we need in an orderly and organized manner. Walker can store it away with his storage skill but we should not leave it all to him. What would happen if he was injured?"

The Fel empire's angels had known of Walker's amazing skills and were ready to rely on it after offering him more of a payment. It was a very useful skill they had seen before and had data on. But they lacked it right at the moment. Therefore, they had been presented with a great opportunity. Yet, Su raised a great point and the many backpacks that were set up for supplies were pointed out by Ethan.

| сom "And I will need to see what else I can prepare before we leave. Explosive potions can make a big difference right now, right?" Remey looked at the image of sand giants. She saw that they could be broken with her alchemical strength. So what if she wouldn't be able to break the tough stone bodies? She had other means of attacking that could use her defenses and alchemy to make work.

"Then the plans are set. We will leave in ten hours. Preparation will begin. I will send my healers and alchemy experts to meet with yours. I will let you handle the light soldiers from Rize, it appears they are more comfortable with you anyways." Ethan had sharp eyes and Walker didn't reprimand him. This was still a tough situation for the two empires.
