Chapter 73
Chapter 73 Defense Specialization and Big Derailment
The time period for the third event was one week .
By the fifth day, Maple had acquired the skill she was wanted .
“Alright!! I got ‘Counter’!”
Many people were probably afraid that Maple would acquire this skill .
However, they couldn’t do anything to stop it from happening .
Maple was slowly but surely getting rid of her weaknesses .
However, the poison which was the best means of offense due to all the counterplans was also starting to lose its effect .
In the case of Maple, this ‘Counter’ ability is quite the enhancement .
And so, with this Maple had achieved her goals .
Now that she wasn’t going to gain much even if she aimed even higher, she stopped going all out when searching for cows .
Another reason was that she didn’t quite feel like doing it either .
Maple was almost done searching for cows .
This would lead to Maple taking course of her own action .
Players who would come to know of this will probably realize that going all out to search for cows is actually good .
They might try to surround Maple .
However, at present, there were no players around Maple .
“Syrup? Where shall we go now?”
She asked, even though there would be no response .
She didn’t have a particular objective now .
She didn’t completely stop searching as there would also be guild rewards but it felt like it would suffice alone from Sally, Kasumi and Chrome’s earnings .
“I wonder if there’s something… something like a really big cow…”
Beneath her, the forest spread wide .
She stopped searching from the sky and jumped down .
“This is… the part of the forest where I acquired the fragment of the archangel… or is it? I don’t remember that clearly . ”
Sally could quite easily memorize the map .
She was also probably somewhat used to it .
Although Maple joined a group of strong players, her hours played itself was that of a beginner .
As this was also not a good place to search for cows, it was quiet here .
The stuff Maple was doing were also quite dull, like defeating cows when they occasionally appear .
And while she was wandering around doing that, she reached a place where she recognized a building .
“It’s that church . ”
Maple entered the church which she didn’t explore that much the last time .
As she had immediately left after acquiring the fragment of the archangel before, she decided to search every nook and cranny of the place this time .
“Everything looks so worn-out… I wonder if they have any books lying around . ”
Maple searched for a book which might provide some hints like it did on the second event .
She searched everywhere around the place but couldn’t produce much of a result .
“All that’s left is… that place . ”
The place Maple headed towards was the point where the fragment was lying .
There, in place of the small bottle, something was written on the floor with small red letters .
She couldn’t read what it said while standing so she sprawled and read while following it with her finger .
“Ummm… ‘Summon’?”
The moment Maple muttered the word .
The church’s floor started glowing red .
The radiance just got stronger and stronger, dyeing everything in red .
“Eh…Wha?!”
Maple reflexively attempted to run away from the place but before she could, her vision was also covered in red .
After a while, the light died down and Maple opened her eyes .
“……Eh-ehh?”
In front of her eyes was a place just like the church but everything was gray .
It was a weird place .
“Where…… is this place?”
She had to consider going back if this event were to last long .
She could just logout in that case but she didn’t know if she could come back here if she did .
She had to proceed carefully .
Maple went outside the church for the time being .
“Uwaa… everything’s in ruin…”
The grey world was also the same outside .
The fresh and green forest had disappeared and a vast, gray land had taken its place .
Debris was floating here and there, as if time itself had stopped .
“Sally will surely not like this place…”
Maple walked around the wasteland .
It wasn’t as if she had a destination .
Maple had found one thing which was not grey in this grey world .
Maple headed towards it .
Maple had reached the place where the not-grey object was .
It was a pitch black sphere .
As if reacting to Maple getting close to it, the black sphere started bulging .
And before long, the sphere burst open and something dropped outside along with charcoal .
A tail protruded from beneath the battered robe .
There was a rounded horn on its head like a sheep .
And it started talking while looking down .
“Food has come, eh?”
Alarmed by that statement, Maple brought out her big shield .
It looked up towards Maple and realized something .
“Ah? You are from that time? The one mixed with angel’s strength… this one is lucky…!
My status as a demon will rise after I eat you . I was done in at the sanctuary but I can go all out here!”
Saying that, the demon roared .
No doubt that there’s no path of reconciling here .
She had to fight .
Before even getting scared or starting to fight, Maple recalled something the demon had said .
“Eat? …Shall I do that too?”
Maple entered battle stance after spouting something disturbing .
After being derailed from the third event, further abnormalities lied ahead .
