Chapter 480: Defense Specialization and Daily Life – part eleven



“We did it!” Mai exclaimed.

“A complete victory!” Yui exclaimed.

Things went on just as they had planned. Each person did their part and created the perfect situation that allowed the main attackers to deliver their finishing blow.

The twins’ attack is so powerful that most people wouldn’t be able to handle even a single blow.

And well, never mind all sixteen consecutive attacks.

The only time Maple ever remembered seeing somebody survive the sixteen attacks was when they were fighting a raid boss that multiple guilds had to work together to defeat.

However, a black shadow soared high above, leaving flames on its trails.

The boss was still alive and well.

Moreover, its HP had only decreased by a fraction of what they had expected.

“Eh…!?” Mai and Yui were both in disbelief.

“Mai, Yui!” Kasumi exclaimed.

“Let’s pull back for now!” Sally exclaimed.

Both picked up the confused twins and immediately jumped away from their current position.

A moment after that, a large fireball hit the area where the four had been just a second ago.

“It definitely took damage, but… Does the boss have a shield that scales with its own power or something?” Sally mused.

“It’s possible… The strength of the players has been steadily rising, so I guess monsters too were made stronger, so as to not let them get one-shotted.” Kasumi commented.

While the twins may be the only people who can deal this much damage with normal attacks and basic skills, Velvet’s [Heaviest Attack] paired together with [Super Acceleration] can also deal plenty of damage.

Especially if it comes after Hinata applies a debuff and Payne uses his [Holy Blade of Conviction].

Even if they aren’t as powerful as the twins, the main attackers of other guilds can also deal a lot of damage.

There is also the tenth floor coming up. Enemies there are probably going to be even stronger to counter all the skills that the players have accumulated so far.

Not to mention bosses of hidden areas, those will definitely be even stronger without a doubt.

“Is this all that you’ve got? I’m gonna win way too easily like this!” The boss exclaimed.

“It still took damage. Let’s continue with the same strategy!” Maple told her team.

Even if the boss has a strong defense that mitigates Mai and Yui’s damage, the twins are still the ones with the highest firepower within the party.

And because each of their attacks is so strong, they won’t need to get many attack opportunities in order to kill the boss.

As such, the number of times they will need to put themselves in risky situations is small. This makes relying on them the optimal strategy even now.

“Me and Sally will create a chance.” Kasumi told them.

“Make sure to not miss it and hit the boss with all that you’ve got.” Sally complemented.

“Got it!” Mai and Yui exclaimed.

Then, Sally and Kasumi jumped towards the boss again, who countered their approach with a large amount of flames.

“That’s too predictable.” Sally said.

“I’ve already seen that!” Kasumi exclaimed.

Both Sally and Kasumi flew through the fire rain.

Even as the boss flew at a high speed, constantly changing its position and shooting fireballs one after another, the two were able to dodge them all and close the distance on the boss.

Being able to avoid attacks is the lifeline of players without shields. The more they can avoid attacks without using skills, the more of an advantage they’ll have in a battle.

And well, both Sally and Kasumi are amazing at dodging blows.

“[Wind Cutter]! [Fireball]!” Sally exclaimed.

“[Blood Blade]!” Kasumi exclaimed.

Sally used her magic to break the boss’ barrier, and Kasumi made use of the gap to deal damage.

While Mai and Yui are the main attackers, it’s still important for the other members to deal damage to the boss.

If they lose concentration and make a mistake, they might end up getting one-shotted by the boss, so in order to avoid this kind of disaster, it’s important to chip away as much HP of the boss as they can.

Though the boss isn’t sitting still as it takes damage. It too was attacking.

This time, it threw flaming spears towards the rearguard.

But even if this attack has wide range and high power, Maple and the others were fully prepared for it this time.

“Use the wall!” Iz exclaimed.

“Maple, just in case, use [Cover] too!” Chrome told her.

“Got it!” Maple replied.

“[Magic Barrier]!” Kanade exclaimed.

They quickly set up a barricade while Sally and Kasumi attracted the attention of the boss.

Differently from the last time, which was an emergency defensive maneuver, the team was already prepared for the attack this time around.

So, a thick wall was made with multiple layers of defense.

Combine that with Kanade’s barrier, and the boss’ attack was thoroughly blocked.

“We can handle this kind of thing on our own. You can go on the offense, Maple!” Kanade told her.

“I’m going too, Sally!” Maple immediately took action.

“Got it!” Sally replied.

“[Deploy Armaments]! [Commence Attack]!” Maple exclaimed.

It was fine even if she didn’t hit the boss directly. As long as her barrage could restrict the boss’ movement, she’d create an opportunity for the boss’ barrier to be broken.

While Maple focused on attacking, Iz set up barricades for emergency evacuation and consumed gold to make additional barricades to further enhance their defense.

For as long as Iz has the time, space and materials, there will be no cooldown on the barricade creation.

“[Ancient Weapon]!” Maple exclaimed.

Black cubes floating near Maple started emitting light and spreading blue lasers in a mesh pattern that connected the cubes.

“Maple, make us a scaffolding!” Kasumi asked.

“Syrup, [Nature]!” Maple obliged.

“[Eighth of the Swords: Gale]!” Kasumi exclaimed.

Once Maple created a path to the boss with the vines, Kasumi immediately used that opportunity to quickly reach the boss.

“Alright… [Origin of the Swords: Hollow]!” Kasumi exclaimed.

Now that she was in range, with her hair dyed white, Kasumi used her unique teleportation skill to appear behind the boss, even if there was no foothold there.

And so, she was easily able to overcome the issue of her small durability and use her sword to destroy the boss’ barrier.

“[Seventh of the Swords: Crush]!” Kasumi exclaimed.

The sword hit the boss’ back directly, knocking it towards the ground.

Maple and the others were just waiting for this opportunity, “That’s what we needed!” Maple exclaimed.

Mai and Yui readied their weapons, while Chrome and Maple prepared themselves to react to any surprise attack.

They were close enough now.

“[Weapon Throw]!” The twins exclaimed.

The thrown iron lumps engulfed the boss and threw it towards the wall again.

The tremendous damage was greatly reduced once again, but it was still far more damage than what Kasumi had dealt with her series of attacks.

Then, while the twins manipulated their inventory to retrieve the thrown sledgehammers and re-equip them, the boss spread its wings and flew high up.

“I guess I was taking this too easy… Let’s be a bit a more serious.” The boss said.

Then, it spread its arms up high, and a gigantic fireball was created above its head.

The barricades would be unable to prevent this kind of attack from burning everything on the ground.

“Everyone, gather near! I’ll handle this!” Kanade called out to everyone.

The seven players stopped trying to solidify their defenses and instead quickly moved close to Kanade.

A jet-black sun started falling from the skies.

You can’t handle this kind of thing without going all out.

Nonetheless, “Sou, [Awakening].” Kanade calmly called out to Sou.

By using [Mimic], Sou’s appearance changed to that of Maple.

And just before the giant fireball was about to connect with them… “Sou, [Dedicated Affection].”

A warm light that absorbed everything enveloped the eight players.
