Itai no wa Iya nanode Bōgyo-Ryoku ni Kyokufuri Shitai to Omoimasu

Defense Specialization and Snow Mountain 2.

After a while, the icy cave was so dazzling that the light reflected constantly on the blue ice that it accidentally closed its eyes.

"Eh!

"[Flame Barrett]!

What Maple is wearing now under his coat is green clothing. The reason for wearing this equipment is, of course, to wield the laser beam by the weapon like a sword in its intact form by [Poltergeist].

If you are shaking the polar laser up, down, left, and right into a narrow passage, you may occasionally burn a monster right after it gushes. All Sally has to do is shoot a flaming bullet where he's about to play if he hits and acts.

"No!

"Hmm, it's been a while since I've seen this. This is bullshit, too."

Sally remembers fighting fake maples back in the day. Even the fake maple did not swing so far as to reuse [poisonous dragon], but it can be manipulated other than [poisonous dragon] and even modify the orbit, so the boss is also shapeless.

"Oops! Is that it?"

Beams, ice cubes, and beams that were frozen and glowing all over the passageway that were mirror-like, as much as they could knock down the ice sperm and snowman that had come out of the way, finally hit a familiar door.

Maple restores his gear once the weapon has been removed.

"Boss?"

"Yeah. I guess [Poltergeist] made it a lot easier than I expected. The goal is to defeat this and get to the top. I'm sorry if I didn't have anything?

"Then I'll make a souvenir of my boss's material."

"Hmm, you know what?"

Maple and Sally push the door open for two, and they enter the room. There were ever more women with thick ice-covered floors and walls and, at the bottom, clear white skin, and blue clothes. There is no expression on the woman's face and the atmosphere feels the same ice statue she saw on the road.

When the two enter the room for a little while, cold air blows through the ground, creating more than a dozen pieces of exploding ice at once.

"I'll win!

"Yeah!"

Thus began the battle between the two of them and the Ice Queen.

"[Taunt]!

Maple advances with Sally as he draws summoned ice cubes by [Taunt] at the same time as the battle begins.

"[Ferry]!

Flames propagate through all the ice cubes that have been densely packed by the skill of the Xu, and at the same time the blue light begins to leak.

"[Pierce Guard]!

No matter how powerful an explosion is, [dedication of mercy] says Sally and his share will hit multiple stages, there is no such thing as eliminating even defensive penetration.

In the scattered ice, Sally approaches the explosion once and for all with Maple sheltering her.

The only way to hurt these two is to exceed Maple's Defense by Attack while activating [Pierce Guard]. I'm not the two of you to miss this perfect time.

"[QuintapleSlash]!

"[Cover Move]! [Predator]!

If you can't break through [dedicated charity], you see it. At once, you go on offense. You don't need to think about later in a boss fight, so you just have to push strong moves.

Sally's serial strikes all scatter flames and burn its icy body. Having caught up with the instant move, Maple slaps the big shield and chases it with a further summoned compound.

Then, the boss's body turns to blue, clear ice and crumbles to the ground in Paris.

"What?"

"No, this feeling..."

As Sally felt the wind from behind and looked back, she saw the boss shaped again in the blizzard that rolled. And the snowstorm turns toward both of us with ice debris.

"[Cover]!

The shield keeps the bad food warm, while Maple leaves in front of Sally. Even if [dedicated charity] is used, if [cover] is enough, then the worst can be avoided. If you stand in front of him, there's no way Sally and I can hit him repeatedly with a penetrating attack.

"Phew, good. Looks like it was just a blizzard."

"I'm freezing, though."

Maple's body is frozen everywhere and covered in blue ice.

"... there's nothing wrong with that, is there?

"Stat down, I guess"

"Oh, Sally, you're right!

"It could be dangerous to overlap too much boulder. So if you do, put up a shield!

Saying so, Sally comes forward again. The earlier combo had been replaced by just ice from the middle of the way, so it didn't even go as far as fatal injuries, but it's still done a lot of damage.

Against the approaching Sally, the boss ejects luminous cold air from it when he hands on the ground.

"[Ice Column]!

Sally stretches the yarn and evacuates over the sky when she makes an ice column.

"Hinata is more troublesome...... [Flame Barrett] [Fireball]!

Though not powerful in itself, it precisely sharpens the boss's HP with an attack that punches a weakness out of the safety zone. The boss summons the monsters he sees on the road as appropriate, but it's all drawn to Maple by [provocation]. Originally, if you collect too much, you won't be able to deal with it, but Maple doesn't have to deal with it the worst, so it's a different translation.

"Sally, I got this one!

"Help!"

The strengths of the group are crushed by Maple, and Sally brings her battles to the one-on-one field she is good at.

"[Restraint Boundary]!

Many patterns. Try it sequentially from the better in it.

When the restraint is successful, Sally moves her body forward so that it flows.

"[Torrent]!

Make sure that a large amount of water pushes Sally away to accelerate. Keep your opponent in a position where it's easy to avoid attacks and turn to offense at once with triggers.

"[Demonic Flame]! [Cannon water] [Triple slash]!

I will not allow the boss to move by jumping up with [cannon water] at the same time as the effect of [restraint junction] expires. Even Sally naturally knows this strength.

"Retreat... [Fireball]"

Finally, Sally takes a distance and looks at Maple once he hits the flame on the jumped boss. If Maple is not good enough to stimulate poorly and activate penetrating attacks, it is left to be an ice monster, such as an ice statue or a snow statue, especially without a hand, but I guess it doesn't matter that HP isn't down.

"Maple."

"Oh, yeah! [Cover Move]!

Maple comes out of the monster on instant travel to Surrey's. Now they were in the center of the boss room, in the form of bosses and tons of miscellaneous fish monsters on both sides.

When the two of them are first alert to the boss, the sound of ice splashing behind them. When I look at Chirali and you, I see that the summoned monster collapses, and at the same time, the boss's wrapping snowstorm grows stronger.

"Coming."

"Yeah! [Pierce Guard]!

White cold air blows through the entire room along with the sound of ice tensing over the ice called Pakipaki just in case Maple activates the Piercing Disabled skill.

As it clears, Sally realizes that the light at her feet has gone out. When I look at Maple, the [devotional mercy] has been lifted, and the aura of [Kenno Dance], which Sally herself had wrapped around, has disappeared.

Sally tries to think of the worst case and activate her skills, but ice travels from the ground faster than she utters, stopping the two feet from stitching.

The boss runs around with a hail-mixed blizzard, with less HP left and seemingly altered behavior patterns, with an ice sword.

"Until it's released... how many seconds later...?

When Sally thinks fast about which order she can survive using her skills, she accidentally loses the feeling of her feet and darkens her vision.

"Dead...?

Since starting this game, Sally thinks about its potential for a feeling she has never tasted. But I understood that I heard a familiar voice from next door and it wasn't.

"Oh, there's some proper Sally! Good -..."

"Maple!? Uh... here, where?

"Huh? It's in the ground."

"Hmm...?

"I told you, I learned new skills! [The earth's rocking cage] and just dive into the ground for a little while before you come out."

"Oh, well? Whatever it is, thank you."

"Heh heh. Look at that."

……

In front of Sally, who is not sure, Maple prepares somewhat downwards in a hurry.

On the ground, where the two disappeared, the boss stops directly on top and waits for the two of them to come out. If you do, the ground will shake if Maple's skill's effect time has expired.

At the same time, Maple and Sally reveal themselves so that they are pushed off the ground. Yes, along with tons of accessories.

Sitting on a pitch-black throne, Maple returned scattered with gardens and chemicals, and muddy earth and flowers that put his opponent to sleep.

Installation-type skills activated in the ground cannot remain in the ground when they return to the ground and are ejected up.

It's like a predator who waits still for his prey, and the boss is forced to start in a suddenly emerged super dangerous zone.

"[Invitation to Underwater]"

Five tentacles are stretched from the top of the throne, where the nature is inverted and no longer seals the evil attribute, to the boss whose lower body has sunk. The [bad food] that remained there swallowed up the amount of HP Sally had left to shred.

I am relieved that Maple is good to have done well after the battle and with all the tentacles, gardens, thrones, etc.

"This was the first time I had ever had another player with me... I was relieved when Sally was here."

"This way, thank you. You've got good skills. Besides, there's still some stretch money."

"It's a little hard to level up, though. Because this is the only way I can use it, even though it takes me a while to be able to use it again"

"Then you have to dive into the ground every time you can use it. If I'd done it anywhere on a boulder, I'd be surprised to see it. So, I knocked out the boss."

"I've been waiting! Where? Where am I supposed to go?

"Follow me, there must be a way out to the top in the back"

Boss, exploring the room without scraping, there was a gap in the wall, as Sally said, and if we went through there, we were going to be able to get out on top. The two slip through the ice gap as they change their posture and go out to the top.

It's calm over here.

"Ooh!

That's the world on the storm. On a sea of clouds similar to the view from the floating castle. With blue skies everywhere up there during the day, this was the tallest place on the seven levels.

They line up so they look far from the top of their best.

"Hmm, should I have come at night? I went to Floating Castle and... Reflections"

"But it's still beautiful!

"Hehe, Maple. I told you, it's the same night or day."

…… Yeah, he said. "

"I'm sorry if I'm wrong. I'm not dropping it."

Saying so, Sally holds up Maple.

"What? Huh?

"I'm coming! [Jump]!

Sally kicks an unstable scaffold and jumps up into the sky, making a scaffold in the air as it is and jumping higher.

"Wow... I'm really here"

"Hey, what... eh?

Where Sally jumped up many scaffolds, the two bodies float in space like they were free from gravity. And directly above, there was a solid blue magic formation floating in the blue sky.

"Ha, I'd like to see it if anyone can try it without certainty"

"Wow!

"I'll transfer."

Sally's words at the end. The two of them disappeared, then a little bit, and the blue magic formations also melted into the sky and disappeared.

Maple slowly opened his meditating eyes, and although his body was in a floating sensation unchanged, the scenery around him was clearly visible. What I used to see as Sally in the basement was like being in the night sky.

Unlike that this time, Maple is now floating exactly in the night sky. Although the real sky isn't like this, I'm glad that's not the case. The light that passes in front of you is the closeness that cuts off the starry sky that you view from the earth and seems to have jumped into it.

Become back to back with Sally, who has metastasized with her in a fluffy sensation.

"I'm really a little surprised it fits here"

"You're suddenly jumping into the sky. I wouldn't have noticed by chance."

"I don't know, if it was Maple, it might have exploded with a weapon and jumped in."

"hahaha......"

"I don't deny it..."

When Sally looks over her shoulder at Maple, she picks one light passing in front of her and throws it gently.

"Hehe, you can make a shooting star."

"You can grab this!

Maple imitates Sally, grabs the light and throws it.

"Mm-hmm. Does it feel like we're in a smaller universe?

"Oh, that might be easy to understand!

Maple and Sally sit side by side looking at the stars in a fluffy, large, understandably crafted moon as the two threw grains of light at each other.

"Oh, yeah, I had Mr. Izz make some food, too."

"Oh, true!

"Yeah, I'll get it out now. Even so..."

When Sally takes the basket out of the inventory, it's going to float and fly. Sally was able to finally take the drinks and food out of the basket with the support of Maple, who was about to fly away with him in a hurry to grab it.

"Kanpai!

"Yeah, cheers"

"Mmm, yummy! … I may have remembered a lot today as soon as I started something"

"Like the mighty enemies of Snow Mountain, rice under the night sky, and my skills?

Maple circles her eyes when Sally says so.

"Eh, did Sally think so, too?

"Yeah... I missed you, I was looking back"

"But Mr. Iz's dishes taste better, though."

"Well, that's true."

Sally grabs a glass with one hand while catching the light she tries to pass in front of her and flaunts it with an empty hand.

"Oh, now it's time for me to find the stunning view! The event's about to start, and we're going to be ahead again."

"I'm hoping."

"Yeah! Expect it!

When Sally looks at the starry sky, she throws the light she was squinting with one hand and drinks up her drink.

"As much as I'd like to stay like this forever"

"Yeah, yeah! Beautiful, isn't it!

"Phew... right"

Nevertheless, they can't really be here all the time, so the two of them, emptying the contents of the basket they brought, decided to prepare souvenirs for everyone in the guild as promised.

"Here's a souvenir."

That's what Sally says and holds some stars in her hand. Then it turned into an item and instead fitted into a bottle.

"'One Picked Stardust'."

"Take home the number of people!... it won't go away, will it?

"Maybe I'll be all right."

This is how they ended their last sightseeing before the event by getting souvenirs for their guild members.

That's how time passed since the last sightseeing and the details of the event were revealed.

Although there is no particular dedicated field this time, a limited-time monster was added for each layer, with some elements in the eight layers being initially liberated or medals distributed to all depending on their cumulative crusade count.

[Maple Tree] Then look at the details and rest assured that you don't even seem to need to be concerned this time for now.

"There doesn't seem to be any rankings per guild. Feel how much you can defeat with all the players completely"

"As far as I'm concerned, you're worried about this extra monster material. Looks like this event has a lot to do with the Eight Layers, and it could be some good material."

"It's easy to hunt as you level up. And they're all going to have medals, so they're going to be more motivated."

"Because there have been some challenging events lately. It would be helpful for me to make it easy. I think I can save my magic books again."

"Let's do our best, sister!

"Ugh, yeah! I'd like to defeat a little more. I also learned new skills..."

"Looks like other guild measures will be okay to carry over until the next event...... heh, thanks"

To be honest, Surrey had something tough to say about PVP right now. The battle on Snow Mountain made me realize once again that there are as many ways to collapse in an instant from a state of perfection. We need to look for skills that we can call countermeasures.

"If it's on the eighth floor, that's fine... I don't know"

"It's been a long time since we've had an event to defeat - But now there's [brutality]!

The way Maple is running around in [brutality] is a sight I'm already used to seeing from players in the seven layers. Now that you don't even need to hide it, I'd say it's just the right skill to compensate for the lack of manoeuvre to run around the field and defeat a designated monster.

"Then the event means working hard on your own!

Even though we work together in all players, we lose efficiency when we're partying and moving together. The best thing would be to take each one down from where it sprang up alone. [Maple Tree] faces don't seem to disagree with that either, assuming they're all fine with that policy.

"Besides, the hell with it, maybe we should go to a sparsely populated layer or an area. Like Iz said, there's a line between life and material."

Because the level of additional monsters varies from layer to layer, it is best to go where it was for you.

"Just don't worry about the length of time. Is that because you're making room for us..."

Kasumi stops the words there, wondering if she can help it.

And one thing I'm reminded of is the long duration. It is what Maple looked like during the cattle hunting event.

The Maple herself and the polar swinging trio of Mai and Yui, who don't know about that time, increase the morale of the three of us to the event, even though they care about the five people who talk to them about something is what it is.

"Good luck to you both!

"Yes!"

"You can also get medals..."

While listening to that, [Maple Tree] was going to take the last level up for an event period where delightfully scary maples could be derailed.
