Chapter 281

Defense Specialization and the Floating Stones 2

They hopped on the floating boulders and cut their way through another wolf ambush . And while giant boulders continued to fly towards them, Maple was always rescued by Sally . Eventually, they arrived at the deepest part of the area .

Here, there were several boulders floating above flat terrain . The wind was blowing like a tornado and in the center, there was a giant that was made entirely of wind .

“I don’t think we’ll be able to kill that in one hit . We better be careful . ”

“Yes! Leave it to me!”

Maple pointed her barrels at it . At the same time, the giant also went into a battle stance . The tornado that surrounded it became stronger and the floating boulders began to move .

“Huh!? But I can’t dodge those!”

There was the sound of metal hitting against something hard, and Maple went flying into the air .

Of course, more than one boulder assaulted her, and Maple was bounced around like a ping pong ball .

“Maple! That’s too... I don’t think I can help you... Ah, I have to concentrate!”

Sally lowered her stance and shifted between accelerating and stopping . It was all she could do to dodge the boulders as she got closer .

And as Maple was being blown around the field, Sally could not depend on the effects of Dedicated Affection .

“Oboro, ‘Demon Flame’! ‘Fire Child’!”

Sally ordered Oboro . Then blue flames appeared all over her body and increased her damage output . Furthermore, flames stretched out from her daggers, increasing her reach .

She spun her body and cut through the wind that the giant had unleashed . Then she slashed deeply into the giant’s arm without losing momentum .

As the red damage effects flew, so did the blue flames around her .

“Oboro’s MP is...still fine...!?”

Then Sally saw the lasers being fired from behind the giant’s back, and she quickly jumped away .

However, it turned out that it was meant to damage the giant and not Sally . She saw the damage effects rise into the air .

“Maple? Woah, she’s going crazy...”

While Maple was being bounced around by the boulders, she wasn’t taking any damage . And so she utilized this to move at a high speed and then use ‘Poltergeist’ to randomly unleash her lasers and other attacks . Occasionally, she would make her weapons detonate and bash against the boulders on purpose . This made it difficult for the boss to hit her with its masses of wind .

“Is it...a field gimmick...? Well, I should do what I can . ”

If Maple currently had its attention while racking up damage, that meant that Sally could use a skill that would usually take too much time .

Sally moved close to one of its legs and activated the skills .

“‘Quintaple Slash,’ ‘Power Attack’!”

There was additional damage from Demon Flame and the follow-up attack from ‘Pursuing Blade,’ and ‘Sword Dance,’ which affected everything, on top of buffs from items . These resulted in damage that was nearly unbelievable coming from daggers .

When the damage effects died down, one of the giant’s legs disappeared, and it fell to the ground .

“It’s our chance!”

Sally dodged the flying rocks and moved to the giant’s head, which she slashed repeatedly .

However, a great boulder came flying towards her as if to interrupt her attacks .

“Oboro! ‘Spirited Away’!”

Sally commanded, and then she disappeared . It wasn’t like ‘Quick Shadow,’ which made her invisible . This was a skill that erased your existence completely for one second .

And you could not hit what did not exist . And since she used it right before it hit her, the boulder passed through as if nothing had happened .

“Yes, success! Oboro, ‘Binding Barrier’!”

As things were going well, Sally’s attacks accelerated even more . Maple was still flying wilding about the field and damaging the giant with her lasers . And the result was that the boss could not survive Sally’s attacks .

There was one last gust of wind, and then the floating rocks became still . At the same time, Maple was tossed to the ground and rolled towards Sally’s feet .

Obviously, she was unhurt, but she still looked unstable as she wobbled up to Sally .

“Good work! Oboro sure can do a lot now! Oh... I’m reminded of Mi . ”

“Oboro does fire and illusions . And I guess I do water and ice? What do you think? This blade when I used Demon Flame . Isn’t it cool?”

“Yes! You look like a ninja, I think? And that rock went right through you!”

“Thanks to Oboro, I have one more way to get out of nearly impossible situations . Anyway, this is what’s important!”

Sally scooped up the red gemstone from the ground . It had been the giant’s eye .

“Now we just need to go to the ruins that Kanade told us about . ”

“I hope that’s it . Fighting bosses is quite hard...”

As there was nothing else for them to gather right now, they decided to head for the ruins . They wouldn’t know if they needed something until they got there .

“Alright, let’s go! Let’s go! I can’t wait to see what is there!”

“Yes, yes . Okay, get on the horse again . ”

“Yes!”

Since they had everything they needed, they got on the horse and headed for the ruins .
