Defense Specialization and the Flame Empress

The woman called Flame Empress .

Mi walked in front of the group as she approached the enemy players who held swords .

“Move . Your life will be spared if you do . ”

The air was tense and electric as Mi’s clear voice rang .

However, this was not a proposition that these protectors of the orb could swallow .

“Kill them!”

The front guard charged towards Mi .

Mi’s weapon was a staff .

She was dressed in a red, impressionable red mantle, but her defenses were weak, as was usual for the rear guard .

“‘Flame Empress . '”

She mumbled the words softly, and two b . a . l . l . s of fire that were 1 meter across appeared around her .

The two b . a . l . l . s of fire moved in sync with her arms, and the enemy was no match for their power .

Mi was in the forefront because that was the position that allowed her power to be the most effective .

As all could see, she burned her enemies with super firepower .

“How foolish . How very foolish . ”

There was something charismatic about the way she so easily disposed of her enemies .

“‘Eruption . '”

The ground exploded, and pillars of fire shot up .

Mi could freely control the flames, and her attacks were usually flashy .

It made her power very memorable and caused the enemy to shrink back .

“Explosive Flame . '”

Next, low damage but high knockback explosive wind a . s . saulted the few who had withstood her attacks and came closer .

It showed a tremendous difference in strength .

However, this method of attack was not the most efficient .

The flashier magic attacks consumed a lot of energy .

Due to this, the 20 players behind her all carried as many MP potions as they possibly could . In other words, they were her supply unit .

“Ha…is that all? It’s over . ”

The b . a . l . l . s of fire disappeared when she had finished burning her last victim .

“Here is an MP potion . ”

“Ah . ”

Mi received the MP potion and recovered her MP with a sigh .

“Take their orb . ”

“Yes . ”

Mi closed her eyes and basked in the sense of accomplishment .

However, that was a terrible mistake .

“GAAAHHH!?”

When Mi opened her eyes, the player who had tried to take the orb had disappeared into light, and a robed player was running away with the orb .

“What! …That one is strong . I can…tell . Take the orbs back to our base . It’s possible that we might be annihilated!”

The command from their charismatic leader had the right effect, and they returned with their orbs . Mi decided to follow the robed figure .

“‘Flare Accel’!”

Mi chased after the robed figure as flames exploded around them, but it did not take long for her to completely lose sight of the thief .

The reason was that the robed figure, who happened to be Sally, had used ‘Quick Shadow’ just as she turned a corner .

Sally had left the area while Mi was trying to find the person she was chasing and had disappeared .

Mi did not understand what had happened and continued to look until she sat down in frustration .

“Ahhh…I messed up…I’m so sorry, everyone…”

The Mi that sat there now, seemed completely different than the Mi from a moment ago .

Her charisma seemed to be gone, and all that was visible was a weak person who felt bad about her mistakes .

“Oh, I shouldn’t have built up this character…”

Yes, Mi had been just acting until now .

She had acquired a very powerful skill, and with every word she spoke, she continued to gain attention, which made her embarra . s . sed to show her true self . Mi had decided to play up a character, but she now regretted that decision .

The sense of accomplishment that Mi had felt earlier was actually about not having her true self exposed .

“Ohhh…this is the worst…d . a . m . n it . Maybe I’ll crush a random guild before going back .

She just wanted to lash out at someone .

However, Mi did have the power to put this into action .

And she had just happened to find a certain medium sized guild when she was searching for Sally . And this guild had a manageable number of people guarding it .

“I need to take at least one back with me… Really, that robed person . I’ll burn her the next time we meet . ”

And so Mi attacked the medium-sized guild with explosive flames, columns of fire, fireb . a . l . l . s and even a special paralysis trap that she had got from Marx . And with that, she crushed a guild all by herself .

This was possible because Mi was so exceptional with anything related to fire, which was not something that most people could claim . In fact, there were those in the top 10 of the first event who could not do what she did .

The only ones who could do it with any reliability were Pain and Maple .

Mi put the orb away, and returned to her guild, as flames erupted all around her .

“Welcome back, Mi . ”

Marx stopped walking anxiously around their orb when he noticed that Mi had returned .

He had heard from the others that she had been out in order to retrieve the orb, and so he asked her about it .

“I got a new orb . I wasn’t able to get the other one back . I’m sorry . ”

The other guild members could never get used to the fact that she was able to destroy other guilds by herself, and waves of surprise erupted around them .

“We’ll be leaving again soon . Be prepared . ”

“Yes!” “Yes!” “Yes!”

They replied enthusiastically, but deep down, Mi did not feel like going out again .

This time, Sally decided that she would finally return to Maple Tree .

If the orbs she had were stolen, that other guild would get so many points from it . And she did not want to risk that .

“That last one was very lucky for me . ”

Mi had looked away just at the right time, and she was able to take advantage of the moment .

“I need to do as much as I can on the first day…”

In order to achieve victory alongside Maple, Sally intended to work to her absolute limits .
