Itai no wa Iya nanode Bōgyo-Ryoku ni Kyokufuri Shitai to Omoimasu 150

Defense Specialization and a Thunderhead

The pure white clouds had bumps and dents all over the place and were not good for running .

Even for Sally, it was all she could do to maintain half of her usual speed .

She would lose her balance and fall if she ran any faster .

“Let’s see, there seems to be something up ahead . ”

What Sally was looking at was a cloud that stretched up high into the sky .

This thunderhead cloud had a path underneath it on the ground, that allowed you to go up .

“Should I go in…yes, I will . ”

Sally pulled out her daggers and went into the cloud .

When she went through the narrow entrance, she saw that there were several paths that led out .

This place was like a maze, and Sally moved slowly, as she was cautious of an accident .

“Traps…none . Monsters, none . Okay . ”

Sally tapped on walls and floors as she walked . Then she flattened herself at the wall of a corner and looked .

“Oh . ”

The thing that was floating in the path around the corner was a gray cloud . It looked like a rain cloud .

“Oboro, ‘Quick Shadow . ’”

Sally disappeared and rushed towards the cloud . She used her two daggers to attack it several times .

The HP bar that floated above the cloud was hacked away, and just as Sally reappeared and the cloud tried to retaliate, its bar was completely gone .

“I’m getting to a point where fighting alone is hard without a maxed out ‘Sword Dance’…”

You had to be able to kill enemies quickly, or the number of times you had to dodge attacks would increase .

And so she needed a decent amount of attack power .

And she could no longer kill enemies while dashing passed them, even with ‘Sword Dance’ maxed out . This was because the monsters had caught up with Sally’s status .

“I want a new skill . Ah . ”

As Sally walked down the path, she saw another cloud . This one was releasing electricity .

“I see… So I guess the other one was attacking with water?”

If the one that she had just killed was a rain cloud, then this one was a thunder cloud .

“Let me check its attack range first . ”

Sally slowly approached the thundercloud but stayed ready to run away at any time .

Once she reached a certain distance, smaller thunder clouds separated from the main one and scattered .

“Woah!”

Sally quickly jumped back . Just then, the smaller clouds and the big one shot out bluish-white lightning .

The bolts of lightning shot through the air before eventually disappearing .

After witnessing this, Sally used ‘Leap’ to quickly close the distance, then she used ‘Double Slash’ and normal attacks to kill the cloud .

“It takes them so long to attack . These thunderclouds are weak . ”

Their wind-up was so slow, that she felt that even Maple would be able to avoid their attacks if she knew about them in advance .

Even though the area of effect was quite wide, they were hardly a threat to Sally .

Sally chose a slope as the next path and continued onward .

This was because she thought that the goal would be the top of the thundercloud .

And she was right .

“Oh? I’m already there?”

Sally’s vision was filled with the blue sky .

That meant that she was now outside of the cloud .

“Oomph!”

Now that she had climbed up the slope, she was on the peak of the cloud .

“That was really easy . ”

She hadn’t encountered many monsters, and the road was not too long .

And Sally had farmed similar places to this in other areas when she needed materials .

Then she noticed that there was a flower with small petals near her feet .

And when she touched it…

A white ball fell out from the center of the flower .

Sally picked it up and checked the item name .

“‘Bubble that Reaches the Heavens . ’”

As it would be relatively easy to come and get another one, Sally decided that she would use the item now .

The ball that was just as white as the clouds popped, and then large bubbles started to rise from the ground around Sally .

“Can I grab one?”

Sally put her hand on one bubble, and while it resisted the pressure for a second, it immediately popped right after .

“I’ll just watch while it’s going…it’s pretty at least . ”

Sally mumbled as she looked at the bubbles that glimmered under the lights in the sky .

The bubbles stopped coming out of the ground after a minute, and she could no longer see the bubbles that had risen in the sky .

Sally was a little disappointed that the item had not been useful, but there was nothing she could do .

“Well, it was easy after all, so it’s no wonder… Oh, but I might come back a few times to get some for Maple . ”

Sally felt that Maple would at least like them, and so she decided that she would come here for a while .

Besides, one of her goals was to find different things for Maple .

And it was not too far from the town, and the enemies were few and pretty weak .

“Alright, now I’ll go and look for the next promising place . ”

Sally went back into the cloud and went down the slope .
