Itai no wa Iya nanode Bōgyo-Ryoku ni Kyokufuri Shitai to Omoimasu 178 Defense Specialization and the Haunted Mansion

Some time had passed since they arrived on the 6th layer .

Maple had logged in today as well .

She was currently at the guild home because her white equipment had needed some maintenance .

While Maple was often oblivious, her armor would become damaged .

Maple received the equipment back from Izu and added the set to the ‘Quick Change’ bracket .

“Okay . I’m going to go exploring today as well!”

Just as Maple was about to leave the guild home, the door opened and someone unexpected came through .

“Huh? Sally?”

“Ah…Maple . ”

“So you came after all?”

Sally then explained to Maple why she had come here .

The reason was that there were several things that she could not ignore .

However, she quickly realized that it was impossible her once she went out into the field, and so she came to get someone’s help .

“Okay, okay . Then, I will help you! I didn’t have anything to do anyway . ”

“Thank you…so much…”

“Well, let’s get going then!”

And so Maple took Sally’s hand and they left the guild home .

Maple pulled Sally’s hand as they went out into the field . There, she called out Syrup and climbed onto its back . She petted the shell gently and said:

“Thank you . ‘Dedicated Affection’! ‘Throne of the Heavenly King’!”

The throne then appeared on Syrup’s shell, and Maple sat on it . Sally sat on the shell in front of her and squinted .

Maple had Syrup float up into the air and wait .

“Where to, Sally?”

“There is a European-style building west of the town…so there . ”

“Okay . West . ”

Maple had Syrup turn around and head towards the west .

“Hah…it starts from here…I hate it…”

Sally covered her face with both hands and rolled up into a ball .

They had been progressing smoothly at first, but then Maple suddenly let out a cry .

“Ah!”

“Huh? What…”

Sally looked up when she heard Maple .

She saw a woman with a pale face floating in front of her .

The woman stretched out a hand towards Sally .

“… . !!”

“‘Deploy Barrels’ ‘Commence Attack’!”

Just as Sally threw herself towards Maple, the bullets hit the ghost and caused it to disperse .

“That came pretty close . ”

“Ah, agh! Tha-that’s too much!”

Sally was still clinging to Maple as she pointed at the empty air .

“It can’t do anything but touch you, because of the throne . So don’t worry!”

“Ughhh…”

“But I didn’t actually kill it . It will be back soon . Oh, two of them this time!”

Two ghosts floated over with voices raised in pained howls .

“I’ll drive them away!”

Maple left Sally, who had hid her face in a scarf, and shooed away the spirits .

After a while, a run-down mansion became visible below them .

Compared to the rest of the area, the mist was especially thick there, and they could not see the entire building clearly .

“Sally! We arrived . Uh, I think… Can you check?”

“Is there anything there?”

“Hmm, nothing! It’s fine . ”

Maple confirmed that there was nothing in the area and relayed this to Sally . And so Sally pulled down her scarf and peered over the edge .

“Yes . It’s fine . This is it . Alright…yes! Let’s go!”

“We’re going down then . ”

Maple had Syrup slowly descend . Then she pulled Sally by the hand and they stepped onto the ground .

Then she made the throne disappear and returned Syrup into her ring .

This was because an enlarged Syrup would not be able to move inside of the mansion .

As they would be exploring, Sally would not be able to keep the scarf wrapped around her face, and so she returned to her usual appearance .

“If I think that I can’t do it…I just have to meditate…meditate…”

“Sally? Let’s go . ”

“…I know that it can take more than an hour, and so I will harden my heart!”

Maple remembered that Sally had once prepared herself for a whole hour in order to enter a haunted house, only to run away with tears in her eyes .

Maple still had her weapons facing out .

And so, in order to prevent Sally from escaping, she shot through the half-open door by using her self-destruct flight .

Maple knew enough about Sally to see that using a little force would be good for her .

“Coming in!”

“Ahhhh!!”

With a thunderous crash, the two of them entered the mansion .
