Chapter 86
Itai no wa Iya nanode Bgyo-Ryoku ni Kyokufuri Shitai to Omoimasu 86
Defense Specialization and Offensive Supporter
Ahhaa!
Izu easily dodged the charging lizard and swung the pickaxe down into it, before stepping away once again.
Maple was about the only one who didnt bother dodging attacks, and while she was a crafter, Izu had a decent amount of AGI.
And so it was easy to move out of the way of the slow lizard.
When Izu looked at the lizard, she saw that its HP had decreased.
Just as I had heardI wonder if my pickaxe will last long enough?
Izus pickaxe was her masterpiece, made with time and luck.
She calculated her chances of being able to break all the crystals and decided that it was possible.
However, the lizards would become faster as it shed more and more crystals.
She wasnt sure if she could deal with that.
If only I could evade attacks like Sally!
She dodged the lizard attacks and collected the broken off crystals. Rinse and repeat.
After a while, the lizards movements started to change. It would run on the walls, stick to the ceiling and jump down and attack her with the crystals on its back.
Oh? Youre going to poke into the ground like this? Dont mind if I do then
The lizards crystals stabbed into the ground when it dropped. It would take a while for its to get back on its feet.
In the mean times, Izu swung her pickaxe at it and threw bombs on its exposed stomach.
However, she could not deal it any damage with bombs.
Oh my. Throwing bombs on your soft parts still doesnt deal any damage, huh?
She had heard that it was immune to such attacks, but she didnt know how far this had been tested. She wanted to end the fight as soon as possible, but things would not be so convenient.
Izu continued to rapidly swing her pickaxe.
A pickaxe of inferior quality would have been broken by now, but Izus pickaxe still had three-quarters of its durability left.
Izu waited for the right timing when the lizards back would be stuck into the ground, to attack. Whenever it got back up, she would run away from it.
This was how you normally evaded attacks.
Sally, on the other hand, would always evade at the last possible second and move in for a counter attack. To be honest, it was not normal at all.
I hope that I can make auto HP regeneration armor for Mapleoomph!
Another crystal broke off with a snap and fell into Izus hands.
As this continued, the lizard became even faster. Izu was no longer able to avoid its attacks, and she was thrown into the air.
TskI wont survive another hit.
Izus accessories space was full because of the Item Pouch.
The Item Pouch had a feature that allowed you to store potions and other items for over two hours. And Izu had stuffed hers with potions.
However, as it was just a pouch, you could only fit five items in there.
Still, it had merit, as it allowed her to heal faster.
Hahhonce, notwiceIll need to do Simple Repair.
Izu thought as she looked at her pickaxes durability and the lizards HP.
This Simple Repair was a skill that allowed you to recover a little bit of durability.
While it was just a little, Izus pickaxe was durable, to begin with, and it was much more effective on something of this quality.
Ill do it when it stabs into the ground again.
Every time she was hit, she had to use one of her homemade potions to survive.
And then she would go back to hitting with her pickaxe whenever she saw an opening.
After a little while, the lizard got stuck in the ground again, just as she had anticipated.
Simple Repair.
She recovered some of her pickaxes durability and struck the lizard.
This cycle repeated again, and then after that, she focused on attacking it and chipping away at its HP.
Izus calculations were not wrong. Looking at the lizards HP and the pickaxes durability, it was clear that the lizards HP would be the first to deplete.
A few more rounds! I wont let my guard down.
Izu declared, and she continued to fight without taking any risks.
She used potions without reserve, and cut into flesh and tore out bones.
And then the lizard finally crumbled to the ground.
Hahha! Its the first time Ive done this aloneIm really not cut out for combatIt was a good thing that I chose this job
Izu said as she checked her inventory. She had collected quite a lot of crystals thanks to her trusty pickaxe.
The pickaxe itself barely had any durability left, but this was all with her calculations, so it was no problem.
HahhThis should be enough since its just our guild. I better go back nowhuh?
She was just about to step on the magic teleport circle when she saw a treasure chest nearby.
Izu cautiously approached it. She squatted down and tapped its surface.
I didnt hear any information about thisbut I might as well try opening it.
Izu slowly opened the treasure chest. What she found inside was an old, brown long coat that was charred in several places, large goggles, and dark brown boots.
Izu tossed them into her inventory and checked to see what they were.
I seeIts because of this that those three dont come to get things fixed.

Izu quickly put all this on and stepped onto the magic circle.
With this, Izu was now able to create gunpowder and herbs with the gold that she could store without limit.
She could also create more difficult items now as well.
In other words, she would be able to create an unlimited number of bombs and Throw them. Something that was hardly normal for someone with a crafting job.
