Defense Specialization and Two Enemies

While Kasumi and the others were exploring, Frederica and Drag from a . s . sembly of Holy Blades were in charge of defending their guild, which was far away from Maple Tree .

“Ahhh! I want to go out and attack!”

“It can’t be helped . We’re too slow on our feet . ”

As Drag said, both of them had not put much into their AGI .

Which meant that they would not be a . s . signed to any scouting parties, where AGI was important .

Frederica sat on top of a large rock and swung her legs with a bored expression .

The a . s . sembly of Holy Blades was a large guild, and so their orb was in a place that was difficult to defend .

It was a rocky area surrounded in flat terrain . The rocks made it difficult to see people coming, and there were so many places an intruder could come from .

There was also no ceiling above the orb, so it was possible that someone could ambush them by jumping off from the taller rocks .

However, there were also a few caves nearby, and while they could not hide the orb there, they could at least use them to rest in .

As the two waited there, they received news from another guild member about an enemy attack .

The atmosphere changed immediately, excitement now filled the air .

“How many?”

“Nearly 40! The same number that we have for defense!”

“In that case, we should probably go . Pain was very insistent on minimizing any casualties . ”

“True… Let’s go and crush them then . ”

“Yeah . Oh, that’s right…all of you can stand back . We’ll handle this . ”

“Whwhat? Just you two?”

“Yeah, it’s no big deal . ”

The messenger was sure that they were being arrogant, but no one could withstand their aura of dominance, and so he backed away .

The two moved to the forefront, and as was reported, they could see 40 players coming right at them .

“Our scouts are very impressive . ”

“Yes . ”

Drag held his battle axe as he looked at the enemy, and just as they came within range, he swung downward .

However, Drag’s range was very different compared with the range of most battle axe users .

“‘Ground Splitter’!”

It reached 20 meters in both directions .

The attack left cracks that went 50 cm deep into the ground, stopping the enemy in their tracks .

If they continued to run, their feet would get stuck in the crack and they would lose their balance .

And this attack was especially effective when Drag fought alongside Frederica .

“‘Multi-Fire Bullets’!”

Magic circles appeared all around Frederica, and they launched numerous fire bullets into the air .

And they flew into the targeted players whose feet were trapped in the ground .

The special ability that Frederica had was ‘Multi-chant . ’

It was practically a cheat skill, that allowed her to use a magic attack numerous times for just three times the MP . And as was shown during her battle with Sally, she could use Multi-Obstacle, giving her very high defense .

“”Heavy Charge’!”

Drag charged forward as Frederica attacked with magic .

Drag’s savage axe came out of the ground and slammed into the players who managed to escape the tear in the ground .

“Aghhh!! ‘Burn Axe’!”

Drag’s axe erupted into flame as he swung wildly . He no longer cared about defense, which left many openings . Still, his attacks . . h . i . t hard .

It would be hard for anyone to attack him as long as he continued to destroy anyone who got near .

Sometimes offense is the best defense .

However, they were against 40 players this time .

It could not be helped that he was eventually surrounded and attacked .

Still, Drag did not allow himself to focus on anything but attacking .

This meant that attacks that used skills started to fly at him in rapid succession .

“‘Multi-Obstacle’! ‘Multi-Water Wall’!”

But Frederica continued to create barriers to protect him, and the attacks lost their power, leaving Drag’s HP completely undiminished .

Drag knew that Frederica would protect him, and so there was no need for him to change his focus .

“‘Grand Lance’!”

Drag slammed his weapon into the ground, causing six spears of stone to sprout from the ground around him .

The players who were pierced by this attack squirmed and wriggled in an attempt to escape, but Frederica’s magic came quickly, killing them one by one .

“Is that all you got!? Ha!”

“‘Cover’!”

A great shield wielder blocked Drag’s battle axe, but when Drag’s swing bounced off the shield, the enemies behind it went flying back and hit the ground .

This was another of Drag’s traits .

It was the ‘Knockback’ effect .

You would get blown off your feet if you blocked Drag’s attack, and you would receive great damage if you were hit directly .

“‘Heavy Charge’!”

The axe came back, mercilessly taking away their HP .

Once you fell, Drag would be able to hit you directly, the following impact would not allow you to recover, and you would die .

Offensive power was the rule of the land .

However, it would mean nothing if the environment did not allow you to use it .

In that sense, Frederica was a mastercla . s . s rear guard, as she continued to support him and launch her own attacks .

“‘Multi-Light Canon'”

Four separate circles of light appeared around Frederica . Seconds later, lasers shot out and surrounded the players .

They tried to retaliate with their own skills, but they were not effective, as they were unable to get close enough to Frederica .

They could not show their backs to Drag in an attempt to attack Frederica .

Because that would mean death .

The reason that they knew that they couldn’t turn their backs on this one player, was because Drag was very famous .

In most cases, players were unable to use 100% of their power in a fight, once it becomes clear that their opponent is better than them .

“‘Water Wall’!”

Some of them had already retreated, and only about 10 players remained . And they too ran away at top speed the moment that they saw their chance .

Drag tried to chase after them, but he quickly realized that they were faster than him, and so he returned to Frederica .

“Hah…that was fun . ”

“You are as brutal as ever! So rough! You’re always charging forward!”

“Sorry, sorry . But wasn’t I useful?”

“Well, yes . You are easy to predict, which make it easier to support you . ”

These two who had insisted that they would handle the enemies on their own did have a certain pride that came from being strong .

But the truly strong operated at a different level .

And they would win, and rise to the top .

“You’re like that too Frederica . How come you don’t run out of MP? Huh?”

“Hehe! That’s a secret!”

Frederica said as she returned to where their orb was .

Drag followed after her .

“But those guys sure were stupid . Why would they attack us, of all guilds?”

“We were in the cave until a moment ago . They probably didn’t think we were around . ”

“Ah, that’s right . What awful luck they have . ”

“Yeah . ”

The two returned to the other guild members, who felt both respect and a little jealousy towards them . They surrounded the orb and started to talk again .
