Chapter 146
Itai no wa Iya nanode Bōgyo-Ryoku ni Kyokufuri Shitai to Omoimasu 146
Defense Specialization and the Strongest 2
When the blinding furnace abated, Maple deactivated ‘Dedicated Affection’ and jumped down to the ground .
“‘Commence Attack’!”
Maple began to fire her weapons again .
And now that the Oni could do nothing but avoid the attacks, she approached him one step at a time .
“Phew…!”
She held her sword and shield up and charged . When they collided, Maple’s weapons and armor were crushed, and the Oni’s body was torn .
However, the only thing that the Oni really destroyed was the shell that surrounded Maple .
Not only that, but her armor simply regenerated, and the crushed weapons were replaced by new ones .
“Alright, this is good!’
Maple said as she got up and looked to see the Oni .
What she then saw was the Oni, who was positioned to swing downward with his red, glowing naginata .
“Woah!?”
Maple thrust her shield out just in time as the naginata fell on her .
The naginata swept at an almost sideways angle, and Maple was blasted into the air as if punched .
“Uhhh . . kk… ‘Commence Attack’!”
Maple kneeled in the place she had fallen and began to attack, so the Oni could not come closer .
A red damage effect was pouring from the side of her stomach .
“Uhh, piercing attack…potion, potion…”
Maple pulled out a potion from her inventory and used it .
Her HP was slightly below half, but it became full again after one bottle .
If a potion was good, then Maple only needed one to replenish her low HP .
“Hmmm…it seems like ranged attacks won’t hit him . What should I do?”
Maple didn’t have too many options for close-range attacks . The ones that looked promising were attacks with ‘Savagery,’ or charging with weapons while using ‘Bizarre Eater,’ or attacks with ‘Predator . ’
“Hmm…yes! Okay!”
Maple decided to charge as she had a moment ago .
They hit each other as they crossed paths once again, and Maple took the same damage that she did before .
“Here, oomph!”
An explosive sound echoed as Maple was launched into the air .
The naginata swiped at her but was too late . Maple went up high into the air and landed on Syrup’s back .
“Phew…thank you, Syrup! You saved me!”
Maple patted Syrup and then jumped down to the ground once again .
Once Maple landed on the ground, she immediately started attacking again to prevent the Oni from doing anything else .
By repeating this, Maple was able to chip away at the Oni’s HP without getting hit .
The Oni’s actions were limited from the beginning . On top of that, Maple was able to move in all directions in the air much faster than any other player . So the Oni had no way of breaking through her defenses .
Maple chipped away . She just kept chipping and chipping his HP .
Ultimately, she was successful in getting his HP down to half .
“…!”
After numerous charges, Maple flew into the air and landed on Syrup’s back . From there, she noticed that something was changing with the Oni .
“Human…that was impressive!”
As he said this, a white light was creating a whirlwind around him .
The ground around him began to blow with strong winds, and even Maple could hear the roaring sound from above .
Maple held her shield up at this obvious difference, and she watched cautiously from Syrup’s back .
“Now…here I come!”
His voice rang, and at the same time, he launched himself into the air .
A trail of light followed him as he closed the gap between them .
“Are you kidding!?”
Maple saw the naginata that was gleaming red and detected danger .
“Syrup ‘Dormancy’!”
Maple shouted, and Syrup disappeared into her ring .
As Maple was on its back, she fell to the ground as gravity would dictate .

“‘Commence Attack’!”
Her weapons fired off as she shot towards the ground to escape the Oni .
The Oni followed her, but Maple could tell that it was still hovering above the ground .
“Uhh . . kk…! That’s it!”
Maple flew back into the air to get away from the Oni .
As she had no need to change direction, she opened her inventory .
“This!”
Maple took out something that was shining and scattered it like rain .
These were potions that she had in her inventory .
“Over here…next!”
She changed directions and scattered some more .
So there were now fallen potions wherever you looked .
Now she would be able to pick them up wherever she was .
These were complete healing points that would remain there for only two hours .
“Here I go!”
With a renewed resolve, Maple charged towards the Oni .
“Hah!”
Her body twisted as she slammed her shield and sword into him . In exchange, his naginata hit her left shoulder, and then she was past him .
“Ouch…I need to end this quickly…!”
It had been a while since she had been hit .
Maple had wanted to avoid feeling pain at all cost, but it was at least immediately gone when she picked up a potion off of the ground .
If her opponent had piercing attacks, she would not want this fight to last for too long .
“Once more!”
Flames burst behind Maple as she rose into the air again .
The Oni followed her, a cover of light enveloped him .
The two lights in the air would occasionally meet, clash, and red sparks would fly .
When her weapons were crushed, Maple would roll down to the ground and pick up a potion .
“Once more…?”
Maple had a bad feeling .
“My weapons…won’t come out?”
She had been using them and disposing of them every time she went into the air .
But there was a limit .
Once the materials were gone, she could not make any more .
She had used them all by flying and containing his attacks .
“Eat this, human!”
She could contain him no longer . The Oni launched bullets of fire at her as he approached with his naginata .
“‘Savagery’!”
The monster flesh surrounded her body .
Damage effects flashed as the monster’s mouth swallowed the naginata whole .
“Go!”
Maple’s fangs crushed the Oni’s body .
Both were taking damage and both were dealing damage .
When the Oni’s HP was down to 30%, it let out a shockwave, which allowed it to escape Maple’s grip .

The Oni then backed away and gathered the white lights towards him .
“It’s not over, human…!”
The Oni became larger then and turned into a Great Oni with long white hair that blew in the wind .
