Chapter 22: Defense Specialized and Boss Extermination

Boss room-like room, I found it!

In front of them was a door that didnt exist until now.

Opening the wooden door which was about 5 meters, they entered.

Inside was wide, and dim.

It was about 10 meters to the ceiling, and looking around, the width is about the same.

And the depth was about twice, and a huge throne was placed in the deepest.

And, on that, a giant goblin that has a hideous face was sitting.

It was sitting, so its size was not clear, but it was about as large as the door earlier. It was about three times of the normal goblin.

The goblin noticed the two, and roars.

To its tremendous volume, the two scowls.

Lets defeat it already! Its too noisy!

I agree, lets go!

Risa nodded.

Kaede changed her large shield to the Mirror of the Dark Night, for the final battle.

The distance to the goblin was about 20 meters.

Risa closes that distance with her top speed.

But, the goblin did not see that off.

Beside the throne, it took a giant saber that was placed in it and stood up, it was drawn violently while moving forward.

The impending deadly blade together with its tremendous sword pressure.

Cover Move! Cover!

Risa didnt knew if she could dodge it. Because Kaede received the saber that was twice her height with her large shield without being intimidated, and erased it. The enemys main weapon with overwhelming destructive powers was removed from the start of the fight.

The saber became light and disappeared.

Nice! Yosh!!

Risa approached the boss further, and from this, Kaedes movements were unexpected for Risa, and maybe even to the goblin.

Cover Move!

To Risa who was running, Kaede was able to keep up by suddenly accelerating. The attack from the goblin hasnt come.

Risa, while being surprised, approached the boss.

Cover Move!

Kaede forcefully keeps up with Risa. With this, the two of them arrived in front of the goblin together.

The goblin swings down its muscular arm together with a roaring sound.

But that attack did not hit Risa.

With her proud dodging skills, she did not receive the simple attacks of the goblin. Risa, just like that, jumps up and aimed at the goblins stomach.

When Risas dagger was at the distance when it can reach the goblins body.

Cover Move!

Risa made a wry laugh because of the way she uses Cover Move was already ridiculous it could be called its name.

Kaede was now close to the goblin, and entered the distance where the large shield can reach.

After Risa dealt an attack, she left that place.

Kaede twists her body and swings the large shield.

Howisit!! This power!

A flashy damage effect the width of the large shield was ground on the goblins abdomen, and its HP bar was reduced by 30 percent.

And as if it provoked the anger of the goblin, it hit Kaede and fell to the ground.

Fufufu two times damage? Two times zero is zero!!

The two times damage received demerit of the Cover Movebecame nothing in front of the erratic defense powers of Kaede. But that being said, her armor wasnt like that, and it had cracks and crumbled.

Ue!?

Kaede was surprised, but when the armor shines faintly, it immediately

came back to its former shape.

Ah!! I see,Destruction Growth!

The destroyed equipments would grow more robust and solid.

Risa called out to Kaede.

Can you do it one more time?!

Of course!

Kaede stood up, and looked at Risas movements.

And, the instance that Risa was about to be hit by the goblins fist.

Move Cover! Cover!

She stood in between the fist and Risa and adjusts her large shield.

That hand was devoured to from its fist, became light and disappeared. It was swung down in full force to catch Risa who was quickly so its momentum wouldnt stop.

The HP bar decreases tremendously again.

There was only remaining 40% left.

Kaede draws out Shingetsu.

I should at least do something right! Super Acceleration!

Risas body blurred, and accelerates.

Risa moves behind the goblin in high speed.

Double Slash! Wind Cutter! Powered Attack! Double Slash!

Combined with the speed of the Super Acceleration, it was hit with high speed consecutive attacks. Even doing all of that, the gauge only fell by 15% so it was really clear how ridiculous Kaedes large shield was.

After being attack by this much, the goblin couldnt help itself to face Risas direction.

As the goblin turns around, as if to overlap the red damage effects, golden effects envelopes its arm and punches.

That attack didnt hit Risa but the ground it hit was caved..

Its power is rising, but its too slow!

Risa moves away from the goblin, and the goblin tries to chase Risa with blood-shot eyes.

Is it okay? Chasing after me? Im sure that ones scarier?

Hydra(Poison Dragon)!

Kaedes voice calls out a three-headed poison dragon.

The goblin that left behind the huge threat trying to chase after Risa received the attacks of the Poison Dragon from behind.

In addition to the huge damage of the Poison Dragon, the top level poison damage.

Even so, the goblin was somehow standing, probably because of its pride as a boss.

But that couldnt last long, and its huge body changed into shining lights and explodes.

Good job!

You too and? what was that weird movement?

Weird movement, oh you meanCover Move? Thats great right! It had moved as Ive thought so I was able to use it for attacking!

The only one who can live using it like that, and be able to deal decent damage, is Maple alone you know

In reality, if a large shield user was to copy that, he would probably sink after receiving two times the damage.

In addition, the only person who have that ridiculous attack power is about Kaede alone.

If it was only fire power needed, it doesnt need to be a large shield.

Sally was also so fast! That last one!

Well, it increases AGI by 50, so. I cant use it because of its 30 minutes cooldown, but its enough I guess

But, I can only use Akujiki7 times left I tried to not use it that much in the short term decisive battle

Well, the Maple right now has bad fuel efficiency huh. This times skill acquisition, lets get good ones!

Un, I guess so!

After saying that, the two went towards the throne where the goblin was sitting on.

There wasnt much decorations but it was a huge treasure box.

Ill open it?

Okay! Open it!

Risa opened the treasure box.

Inside was, a saber that looks just like the one that the goblin had.

And, two pieces of silver medals shining.

We did it! Its a medal!

In addition, two of them, its two of them!

The two didnt care about the saber and was crazed about the medal. In the first place, the two cannot equip the saber, so it was natural that they werent interested.

If there is two medals per dungeon, then there is 150 dungeons?

The difficulty might be different? Having a stronger boss for example! Other than that something like, it is hidden but it has no boss

Ahh, I see, theres something like that huh

Risa stopped thinking of it, took the saber and looked at its specs.

Saber of the Goblin King

STR +75

Damage Acceleration

Uuo thats a pretty brain muscle weapon

How does it look?

Its easy to get destroyed so its not for long fights, but it has STR+75

We cant equip it right?

Un

The equipments a miss huh

Do you want to search for the next dungeon? Theres a magic circle in the back of the throne, I think we can go outside when we stand on it

if its only one, maybe we can do it today? I also think that the skills can take it!

After discussing, the two stood on the magic circle.

Thinking of KaedesAkujiki, it would be better using all of it in a days exploration.

It couldnt be carried over tomorrow, so the number that they can capture would decrease.

And when the light disappeared, they were at the grassland earlier.

I forgot for the meantime, we should start from getting out of the grasslands

W-Where do you think we should go?

Forward! Probably that is the best way. It shouldnt be all grasslands up until the tall mountains that we saw on the start

Well, that is true!

The two started walking towards the mountainous terrain.
