Defense Specialization and the Tower’s 10th Floor 3
The flames eventually died down . And while Sally was unhurt, Savagery crumbled right in front of her, and Maple came rolling out .
Sally picked her up and moved away from the boss .
It seemed like the boss stayed still for a while after special attacks . However, neither of them was in a position to take advantage of it .
“Ah, that was close…”
“I’m sorry . I didn’t think it had any hidden moves left . ”
“Maybe going in like that was a bad idea? I can’t use Savagery anymore…”
“Deactivate Dedicated Affection . If the area attacks come, you’ll die before I can heal you . ”
“Okay . You’ll have to dodge them then!”
“Leave it to me . It’s what I do best . ”
Maple brought out her weapons again and raised her shield .
Sally also held her daggers up and heightened her concentration once again .
“Let’s go, Maple . ‘Phantom World’!”
“‘Commence Attack’!”
There were now three Maples as the firing began . A tremendous amount of bullets sprayed over the boss .
As they were keeping a distance from it, its attacks for dealing with clones did not reach them . Instead, the boss created a wall of fire to protect itself from Maple’s attacks .
“Ohhh, please break!”
Maple’s prayer was answered, and the wall of fire began to fade, but then as if to dodge the bullets, the boss jumped upwards and flew towards Maple .
“‘Pierce Guard’!”
In order to do as much damage as possible, Maple pointed the gun barrels upwards and prepared to hit it with ‘Bizarre Eater . ’
The flames blazed hotter and the sword was now like a giant pillar of fire as it cut into Maple’s clones . As the flames were not piercing attacks, she could not stop them, but the damage from the sword was still nullified, and she survived .
Maple ignored the disappearance of her clones and swung her great shield, gouging out part of its shoulder and body .
“Once more!”
Maple swung her shield again, but it was blocked by the fiery blade and pushed aside . And then without losing any momentum, the boss charged forward .
Maple had no way of dealing with it perfectly .
Still, Maple laughed as if it were all according to plan .
“Sally!”
“‘Quintuple Slash’!”
Sally had moved away when Maple started firing . She had been using Oboro’s ‘Quick Shadow’ to hide . Once she was no longer targeted by the boss, she waited for her chance to attack .
Sally had used Doping Seeds to the limit, and it was like this that she unleashed the highest succession of attacks that she could . With the combined effects of the ‘Pursuing Blade’ skill, the weight of 10 attacks from each hand went into the boss’s defenseless back . And the sword that tried to attack Maple stopped .
Due to receiving such overwhelming damage, the boss’s movement priorities changed, and it thrust its sword into the ground .
The magic that caused a massive pillar of flame to burn them earlier was about to be activated again .
“‘Quick Change’!”
“‘Heal’!”
“‘Aegis’!”
Maple quickly drank a potion, but as that wasn’t enough, Sally healed her . And then she made a dome of light that would block all damage .
Powerful moves should be met with powerful moves, and so an instant kill attack had to be met with the ultimate defense .
A storm of roaring flames blazed around them .
“Our chance!”
“Yes!”
This time, they would not let its pause go unpunished . Maple fired her guns and Sally unleashed a barrage of attacks . They took its remaining HP down to 30% .
Then shock waves erupted, and while neither were injured, both were pushed away .
Sally immediately returned to Maple and healed her . Then they watched the boss .
Maple went back to her original equipment and called out Syrup, securing more firepower .
“It went well!”
“Don’t get too excited just yet . ”
In front of them, the boss made another burst of flames surge from its sword in the ground . And then the ground cracked, and several pillars of fire erupted, completely changing the field .
Five swords of fire now hovered behind the boss’s back . They were stronger than the blade enveloped by fire .
“…I guess this is where the real battle begins . ”
“We won’t lose!”
