Defense Specialization and the Rain Area 2

However, while they were moving on to the second phase, they would basically be repeating the same process .

Maple aside, Kasumi and Sally had all of the boss’s attack methods during each phase memorized .

Because of this, they could see just how probably their victory was, once they had gotten through the first phase .

“It’s falling faster now . Sally is…dealing with it . ”

The speed at which the drops fell would increase with every phase, and so would the number of them .

As Maple was practically luring the boss nonstop, Kasumi was able to focus on the sky and was prepared in case Sally couldn’t manage it alone .

However, Sally was much too quick in destroying the raindrops, and so Kasumi was mostly looking at Sally and not at the sky .

“Now even Sally has started to fly in the sky…well, it isn’t exactly comparable to Maple, though . ”

Sally was really just jumping between the pillars of ice, and so she was not flying where there was nothing .

“I bet Sally could move freely like that in the forest . No, if anything it would increase her mobility . ”

As Kasumi was thinking this, the boss’s core started to move again, and this time, a slightly larger number of clones appears .

“‘Blood Blade’!”

Kasumi sacrificed her HP again as her red blade began to spread . And just like the last time, she was able to attack all of the cores .

“I can still use it . Yes, it’s a lot easier to use compared to ‘Purple Phantom Blade . ’ Though, it doesn’t deal as much damage…”

Just as Kasumi had fulfilled her role, the boss started to move away from Maple and approached Kasumi, who was closer .

However, since its attacks were slow, it was unable to catch Kasumi, with her high AGI .

It was so slow, that the only reason it could attack Maple was due to the fact that she wasn’t moving at all .

“I think it will start using ranged attacks soon . ”

Furthermore, they already knew its attack patterns, which meant that it could do nothing to them .

Ultimately, Saly didn’t allow a single raindrop to fall, and so the field never became advantageous for the boss .

Additionally, Maple did not run out of bullets and Kasumi was not defeated .

All of it ended according to their plan .

The final Blood Blade sank into the core and caused the boss to melt and crumble .

“Ahhh, my secret weapon, the throne…I wasn’t able to use it . ”

Maple said sadly as Sally came down from an ice pillar .

“Hahh… I used this skill in a real fight for the first time . It’s so tiring . I don’t think that it was designed to zip around like that . Oh well . ”

She grumbled as she walked up to Maple and stretched out her limbs .

“You were amazing, Sally!”

“Hmm, really? Thanks . Even with this…I can’t exactly fly next to you . But eventually, we will be able to fight in the air together . ”

“Hey, you two! It dropped an item!”

Kasumi called them over . They accepted the items and looked at them .

“I see . A crystal that allows you to create the same rain that was falling here…and you can make up to three . 1-minute cooldown, huh . ”

Sally nodded as she read through it .

“However, they seem to disappear if they take any damage . I wonder…maybe you could use them as a foothold, Sally?”

“That’s what I was thinking . I’ll have to test it out . ”

By combining it with Icicle, Sally might be able to stay in the air for much longer .

That was one of the reasons she had come here .

“I don’t know about… Maybe I’ll use it when someone comes right in front of me . ”

It would be quite troublesome to have it used just as you got close, but Maple wasn’t sure she would be able to do it quickly enough .

They had done what they needed to do on this layer, and so they decided to wait until the next event or layer implementation for the next few days .

“Let’s go back then . ”

“Yeah, let’s do that . ”

“… ‘Throne of the Heavenly King’!”

As Maple said this, a white throne appeared behind her .

“What…!?”

“Hm!?”

The two looked at Maple in surprise .

“Hehe . I wanted to show you two . Were you surprised? Isn’t it pretty!”

Maple said with a smile .

“Uh…it’s pretty, but that’s not why I was surprised . ”

“Ahh, but I’m relieved in a way . Seeing that you haven’t changed . ”

“…?”

Maple could not quite understand what Kasumi meant by that .
