Chapter 142
Itai no wa Iya nanode Bōgyo-Ryoku ni Kyokufuri Shitai to Omoimasu 142
Defense Specialization and Sally
“Alright, here I go!”
Maple faced the snowman and showered it with bullets .
The bullets pierced its body one after another, but the HP bar above its head barely moved .
The snowman showed no signs of being bothered by Maple’s attacks and continued to approach her . Then it swung its bag at her .
“Woah!? You’re going to attack with that!?”
The attack came from the side that wasn’t shielded, and Maple’s weapons were crushed as she went flying into the air .
“Maybe only magic works on you? Let me test…”
Maple held her shield up and aimed her canons down at an angle before shooting . The explosion launched her towards the snowman .
Maple gouged out a chunk of its body with the great shield as she shot through it .
She landed in a random spot and destroyed her weapons before turning around to look at the snowman . Its HP bar had still barely even changed .
“There really are a lot of different kinds of monsters now… ‘Hydra’!”
The snowman was not particularly fast, and so it could not avoid the Hydra . The poison caught it in the chest and splattered .
“Huh…? It-it’s still not going down?”
Not only was it not poisoned, but it’s HP bar had only dropped a little .
There was no mistake that she would be able to beat it if she continued to chip away at its health like this, but that was terribly inefficient .
“But it would be a waste to let it go…such a waste . ”
Maple wondered what she should do as the snowman showered her head with icicles .
Ultimately, she decided to use Syrup and slowly chip away at its HP .
“Preparations complete!”
Maple enlarged Syrup in the air where it was safe, and have it attack with ‘Soul Canon . ’
Maple herself planned to use up ‘Hydra’ and switch to attacking with her guns .
“Alright, ‘Hydra’!”
The Hydra spat out its poison once again, and in the next instant, the Snowman’s HP went to 0 .
“Huh? …What?”
The Snowman turned into specks of light and vanished . And something fell to the ground where it had been .
“Hm? Mmm… Ah! Instant death!”
It had activated for the first time, and its effect was more than what she could have hoped for .
And so Maple would not find out during this event, that flame type attacks would have made this fight very easy .
Maple ran towards the item that had dropped onto the snow .
It was a box in red wrapping paper and a green ribbon .
Maple picked it up and checked the item name .

“Present Box…I’m supposed to open it during Christmas!”
It was something that couldn’t be used now but would be usable for a few days following Christmas, whatever was in this box .
“I wonder what it is? Is it something to do with Christmas?”
Since Maple had achieved her original goal, she felt very satisfied as she returned to the town .
As a strong contrast to Maple, Sally was now zipping through the fields and gaining points by killing monsters .
Once she finished hunting, Sally put away her weapons and decided to rest .
“Phew…I can’t catch up . ”
Sally mumbled .
She was thinking about the friend who had invited her .
She was happy that for the first time, Maple was playing a game with her for an extended period, but as a player, she also didn’t want to lose to her .
However, in her head, she could not stop thinking of Maple as being unbeatable in combat .
“How did she come so strong…”
She had searched for skills and gathered information in order to catch up with Maple, but nothing was really working .
“I can’t stay losing… I better continue . ”
Sally sent power to her legs and began to run again .
Due to the power of ‘Sword Dance,’ which had been maxed out, Sally was able to kill the monsters that gave fewer points without stopping, which was very efficient .
“I should learn from Maple and raise my defense ability!”
Damage effects danced in the places Sally dashed through .
Just like how monsters without piercing attacks were unable to defeat Maple, monsters who couldn’t attack Sally head-on were unable to defeat her .
“It wouldn’t have been so hard if she only had high defenses . ”
She could fight monsters with simple move sets as she pondered . She was at the top in terms of player skill, she could not ask for anything more .
“If only there was a good skill lying around somewhere…”
She continued to kill monsters like this for 2 to 3 hours until she saw a giant snowman walking ahead .
“Oh, that’s a lot of points . Lucky, lucky . ”
Sally approached the snowman and activated her magic as she avoided its arm .
“‘Fireball’!”
Translations by AsianHobbyist WebsiteEven if the magic was weak, fire magic would take away a big chunk of its HP .
Maple’s hard fight looked like a joke in comparison . The Snowman died as if melting with just a few hits with ‘Fireball . ’
“Yes, delicious points!”
Sally wanted to gather enough dropped items before the end of the event, and so she immediately dashed through the field again .
One reason she was putting so much effort into finding the items, was that she was feeling something like impatience . She wanted to attain some kind of new power .
It was because they were close that she did not want to lose . That was what Sally thought with determination .
