Chapter 307
Defense Specialization and Meeting Up 5
“Hmm .
This is bad .
”
“Yeah, I didn’t think the magic circle would be that big .
”
Shin and Kasumi were talking to each other .
As Kasumi was searching for other members of Maple Tree while riding on Haku’s back, anyone who saw her would recognize her in an instant .
And yet it had been Shin who came, and not any of the members of her guild .
And then a great wind came and enveloped the forest that the two were in .
And everyone who was there was teleported into a dungeon .
Both of them had also just received a message about acquring a medal .
They had a good idea of what that meant .
“I don’t know why it was activated, but I suppose I should be thankful that there’s enough space for Haku to move in .
”
“Yes .
But…I can faintly hear screaming .
We should be careful .
”
Kasumi walked next to Haku’s huge body so that she could hide behind it if necessary as she moved through the forest .
It was dark here as well, and had the kind of eerie atmosphere that made you feel like anything could jump out of the shadows .
For a while they heard nothing but occasional screams, but then the ground suddenly shook, and they prepared to fight .
“…! Kasumi!”
“Yes, it’s coming! “Mind’s Eye’!”
Kasumi used the skill in order to predict the enemy’s attack .
What she then saw, was that everything around her was red .
That’s how big the damage area was .
“Shin! Over here!”
“Uh, okay!”
Kasumi realized that they would not be able to escape in time, and so she had Haku surround them and then had the scales harden .
Immediately after, they heard the sounds of something hitting against something that was hard .
And the two of them looked up .
A giant centipede had bounced off of Haku and was now moving over their heads .
Then the ground shook again, and the damage area disappeared .
They sighed in relief .
“Uggh .
Its shell looked really hard .
Can we defeat something like that?”
“Judging by the screams, other players are being sent here too .
In the first place, this isn’t something you can defeat alone .
”
“That’s true .
How troublesome .
”
“Still, I think we won’t be able to do anything until we defeat it .
We can’t just stay here forever .
”
“Yeah .
Alright, let’s kill this centipede! Wen, ‘Awakening,’ ‘Destructor’!”
With a burst of effects, Shin’s sword multiplied as they floated in the air .
There were more of them now then there had been during the 4th event .
It was quite impressive, since he could freely control them .
“You have more now?”
“Yeah .
The number of moves is important with Wen .
I’m probably a bad fit for someone like Sally .
”
“I think Sally would look at you cooly and avoid you…”
“Well, I agree .
But I would still like to fight her one day .
”
“You should come to the guild home .
Frederica visits us a lot .
”
“Maybe .
Anyone who can beat Sally is first-rate! Oh, we should get started then!”
“Yeah, let’s do that .
”
Kasumi turned off Haku’s defense and called out ‘Arm of the Warrior’ on both sides, in preparation for combat .
In the meantime, her vision was covered by the damage area once again .
“It’s coming from the front!”
“Okay .
Wen, ‘Wind God’!”
As Kasumi gave the signal, Shin unleashed wind blades and ‘Destructor .
’ They shot towards the giant centipede’s head and body, tearing it up .
But it continued to move .
“Tsk .
It’s pretty hard!”
“Haku!”
In order to prevent it from diving again, she had Haku ram it from the side and bite into its body .
Kasumi used the opening to jump up onto it and ready her blades .
“‘Second of the Blades, Cutting Iron’!”
The blades swung down and cut through the centipede’s defenses .
Its shell cracked open, creating a deep wound .
Clearly this was very effective .
Haku continued to strangle it and bite everything from its head to its body .
“Hey, hey .
How strong is that snake?”
“Hehe .
I’m quite proud of my buddy .
”
However, just as Kasumi got off of the centipede and tried to return to Shin, the shredded body and head began to thrash around .
It tore away from Haku’s grip and dove back into the ground .
“I thought that it was too early for it to die .
I guess this is where the real fight starts?”
“Probably .
The effect of Mind’s Eye also ran out .
Shin, don’t let your guard down .
”
As the two of them concentrated on the tremors, they sensed that the giant centipede was approaching them again .
And they were right .
Two centipedes burst from the ground .
The only difference was that they were smaller now, and both were whole and completely healed .
“Kasumi!”
“I know!”
Without saying another word, they each faced one of the monsters and swung their weapons .
“I won’t let you go .
Wen, ‘Wind Cage’!”
“Haku, hold it down .
”
Along with the two arms at her sides, Kasumi unsheathed her swords and slashed at the monster once again .
As for Shin, Wen had the centipede suspended in the air, and he cut through it with his flying swords .
“It’s not as tough as before .
”
“Yeah .
Instead, it seems to be faster .
”
“It split up again .
And now we can’t stop them from escaping…”
Regardless of Haku’s binding or Wen’s Wing Cage, they were able to escape and then attack again .
As this repeated, the number of centipedes increased until there were 16 of them .
By the time there were eight, they were able to slip through the attacks and damage Kasumi .
This made it harder to face them head on .
“Tsk .
They still hit hard even when they’re small…”
“However, they have less HP .
It looks like I’ll be able to do more now! Kasumi, you can finish off the ones that I miss!”
“Yes, I’ll leave the rest to you .
”
And so the next attack came, and they were surrounded from all sides .
“If there are only sixteen, then it’s quite easy!”
Wen’s Wind God created wind blades that tore up the centipedes .
And those that survived were skewered by the flying swords .
“You’re out of luck with that HP!”
Ultimately, they could not escape Shin’s attacks, and all 32 and then 64 centipedes were killed without Kasumi having to help .
“This would be hell without wide-area attacks .
”
“Do you think it will be 128 next?”
“I don’t know .
Well, they can’t beat me with numbers .
”
As they said this, the ground shook harder than it ever had before .
And then a centipede that was even larger than the first came out of the ground as its sharp mandibles glimmered .
Shin had not been expecting this at all, and his reaction was delayed .
But Kasumi quickly pointed her sword at it .
“‘Purple Phantom Blade’!”
And then a storm of high-speed attacks were unleashed as if to push the centipede back .
The two warrior arms at her side reacted by also swinging with incredible force .
The shell of the centipedes head began to crack .
At the end of the skill, multiple blades appeared around the centipede’s head and came together .
It was similar to the force of the centipedes that had surrounded them and jumped forward .
And just like that, the centipede turned into light and disappeared .
“Haa… I see .
It would exceed a hundred if it doubled again .
So they stopped it there… Still, you got really small .
”
“Shut up .
I’ll cut you if you keep staring .
”
Kasumi had activated her most powerful skill .
However, it had the demerit of making her body shrink .
She tried to avoid using it when she could, but this was not a time when she had any choice .
“Haku, let me ride on you .
Tsk…it’s too high .
”
“Uh, do you want me to help you?”
“I’ll be back to normal soon .
Stop looking at me as if I’m a child!”
“Hahaha .
Kasumi, people from your guild really do have the most interesting skills .
”
Just then, they both got the notification that they acquired the medal .
And then they were enveloped by light .
“I won’t be able to fight until my body returns to normal .
”
“Yeah, that’s fine .
I’m sure Mi is heading towards us .
And I think your snake could deal with most enemies .
”
Once Kasumi had managed to climb onto Haku, the two of them teleported back to the field .
