Tyrant Tortoise

Tyrant Tortoise (暴君霊亀) is the fifty-fifth chapter of The Rising of the Shield Hero manga adaptation.

Synopsis
The devastating Spirit Tortoise is heading straight for Melromarc. With Naofumi's party just barely surviving the last attack, new plans are formed to defeat this juggernaut. The battle to save Melromarc begins now.

Summary
Tensions rise in Melromarc as beams of light from the Spirit Tortoise's attacks are seen. With the monster approaching, Queen Melromarc makes plans to evacuate Castle Town. Just as Queen Melromarc sends messengers to reform the devastating allied forces, Naofumi's party is teleported to the castle.

The Shield Hero's party updates Queen Melromarc with the Spirit Tortoise's power-up and introduces Ost. Queen recognizes Ost from when she was one of the King of Houri's concubine. Ost explains that she was in there to bring about instability in Houri to collect souls in order to prevent the Waves of Calamity. Her role was to tell the Heroes about how to release the Spirit Tortoise if they defeated her. Despite it going against her original purpose, Ost offered to help defeat the Spirit Tortoise.

In the attack strategy meeting, Ost reveals that the Spirit Tortoise uses dragon veins as a power source for its beam attacks. A battlefield where the dragon veins are weak is chosen.

Naofumi's party approaches the Spirit Tortoise while the remaining allied forces stay some distance behind. As they approach, they are able to dodge the missile-like spikes and get close to the Spirit Tortoise.
