Itai no wa Iya nanode Bōgyo-Ryoku ni Kyokufuri Shitai to Omoimasu 271
Defense Specialization and Presentation
Once the battle was over, Izu went to gather the dropped items. In the anti Mi approached Maple.
“He-hey! What was that back there!”
“Ehehe. Didn’t I tell you that I wanted to show you sothing too?”
“Uh, you did say that… But, there is no way that I would have known you would do sothing like that!”
From Mi’s point of view, she had acquired a new, incredibly high-powered thod of attack. In fact, Maple hadn’t done anything that was all that different from before, it was just that it was such a departure visually, and so Mi didn’t realize it.
“I wanted to test it out on the boss. Maybe it can be my new finisher?”
“Yes, yes. Ahh, and to think that for a second I was starting to think you were underpowered.”
“Well, you showed Ignis, so I wanted to show you sothing as well.”
Maple said and then laughed innocently. Mi couldn’t help but laugh as well.
“I’ll have to think of new anti-Maple asures by the next guild war. Both in terms of defense and offense.”
“Hehehe. I accept your challenge! Besides, the others have beco really strong too.”
“I don’t doubt it…not now.”
Mi glanced towards Izu. She had assud that Maple Tree didn’t have a powerful buffer, but she knew now that that was not the case at all.
As they talked about this, Izu finished gathering the materials. And so all three of them decided to leave the dungeon.
“Where to next?”
“I need the egg of a monster bird that nests on the cliffs, an ice flower from the snowy mountains…a coral from the sea, and poison from a scorpion…and also so fur…”
She started to list all of the items. There were so many that Maple started to feel dizzy as she listened.
“That sounds really hard…what kind of item are you trying to make?”
“None of the three items have any practical use. One is a kind of mixed dicine and then there’s a sword and so clothes.”
All of these would be very difficult to make unless your crafting abilities were very high. As Izu said, the dicine and sword were event-exclusive items, and could not be used for anything else.
“Well, I guess we have no choice but to patiently gather them. But it won’t be possible to do it in one day.”
“I’ll help whenever you need !”
“Yeah, you can call as long as I have the ti. Hey, why don’t we go to a place that would be much easier with Ignis around?”
“Yes, that would be great! Then…maybe the cliffs?”
“Alright. Leave it to .”
Mi gave Ignis the order, and it changed directions and then headed towards the cliffs.
After that, Izu would take several days to gather the rest of the materials. During that ti, there was another mber who was traveling around in search of his buddy. Yes, it was Chro.
“So, that’s the next place… Phew, this is going to take a while.”
Chro said as he spread the map that he had acquired as an item. That being said, it wasn’t just a normal map. It was a treasure map.
This was the quest that Chro was currently working on. He had found this map while exploring a dungeon. It was a rare drop, and at this point he had already gone to ten of the ‘X’ marks that were on the map.
He had acquired a number of treasures on the way, which were items that could be traded in. However none of them led to a monster that he could ta.
Eventually, he found himself exploring thick forests and snowy mountains that could be described as uncharted territories. And it beca difficult for him to get through these areas in a single day.
“I think it should end soon…”
Chro’s current destination was a cave by the sea. When Chro saw that the map was directing him towards the sea, he couldn’t help but think of Maple’s arm.
“I hope it’s sothing that’s a little more normal… Here it is.”
The entrance was usually covered by water, and the cave was inhabited by ravenous shark monsters. But depending on the ti, the mouth of the cave was revealed.
Through his explorations, Chro found out the right ti to go, and so he decided to enter it now.
“It’s difficult to walk in here. And also…dark. Oomph!”
Chro secured so light by attaching a lantern to his belt. Then he raised his great shield and carefully walked forward. On the way, he saw human bones in tattered clothes. The atmosphere here started to remind him of a certain rocky place that Maple had once told him about.
“I won’t be able to ta it if it’s a ghost-type monster. Oh, surely that’s not what it is?”
Chro held his shield up. The lantern illuminated the area up ahead. And what he saw were skeletons that were ard with rusty axes and sabers. They clattered loudly as they approached.
“If we’re on a linear path, I’m not afraid of groups of enemies!”
He blocked the attacks with his shield and attacked back. There was no need to kill them with a single hit. He just needed to avoid being hit while using the narrow passage to his advantage.
“Phew… No bats have appeared yet. Is it mainly skeletons here?”
He still wasn’t sure what kind of dungeon this was. And so Chro continued his exploration, all the while hoping to find sothing good.
