Chapter 169

Itai no wa Iya nanode Bōgyo-Ryoku ni Kyokufuri Shitai to Omoimasu 169

Defense Specialization and the Event

The skeleton king turned into light and disappeared, and only the coffin remained .

The six of them peered into the coffin and saw that there were six scrolls inside and six familiar looking silver medals .

There were also rusted swords laying around, but these two were the only items they were able to acquire .

All six of them took their reward and checked the skills inside of the scrolls .

‘Ghost Mud . ’

For 30 seconds after use, adds a 25% HP loss to the damage that your attacks do .

Can be used again after 1 minute .

In other words, it was a skill based off of the black liquid that had been chipping away at their HP .

After checking this skill, they started to think about how they could use it .

Some of them looked at it curiously, and the others seemed very satisfied as they left the dungeon behind them .

Furthermore, the six of them decided that they would continue to explore the jungle until their HP ran out completely .

Several days passed since the 6 of them had completed the dungeon that was deep in the jungle .

Maple was slumped over her desk in the guild home .

“Ahhhh…ughh…”

She had left the jungle because her HP was low, but now she was having trouble obtaining the item that would allow her to go back .

As this occurred, she began to lose interest in the jungle itself . And so she ended up just staying alone in the guild home and moaning while the others were out exploring .

“Who cares about the jungle anyway! I already did plenty of exploring . ”

Maple said with a renewed resolve and left the guild home .

Of course, she was not leaving in order to get the item to return to the jungle .

“Somewhere I haven’t been to… Ah, that’s it!”

Translations by AsianHobbyist Website As if remembering something, Maple slowly walked through the field of clouds .

“Woah…it’s amazing . ”

What was in front of Maple now, was a great field of clouds and unending lightning .

Chrome had told her about this place a short while ago, and she decided to come to pay it a visit as she had nothing better to do .

“Alright…Here I go!”

With high spirits, Maple walked over the sea of clouds .

As the clouds rumbled loudly, there was no way for Maple to remain safe, and lightning struck down on her in a concentrated assault .

“Woah! …Oh . Okay! It’s nothing!”

Even if she was hit, Maple’s HP had not even moved a millimeter .

Not only that, but the paralysis effects also did not work on her .

“Okay, I better keep moving!”

Maple walked on . She had been struck by lightning dozens of times, but they all bounced off of her without exception .

“I wonder if I couldn’t dodge them like Sally? …Aghh! No, no . I can’t . Nope . ”

She hopped around in an attempt to dodge it, but was immediately struck . Maple froze with shock and realized that it really was no use .

“Fine . I don’t care… Oomph!”

She said angrily and was immediately struck again as if to remind of her of that reality .

“Walking . Walking . I’m just walking . ”

Even if Maple felt differently, her defense ability was the same . And so Maple continued to walk, all the while getting struck by lightning . And when she got past the area, what awaited her was not more thunderclouds, but a sea of pretty, white clouds .

“Did I get through it? …I hope there is something here . ”

And so Maple looked around curiously as she walked .

It was after she had walked for some time . Maple saw something standing on top of a white cloud .

Translations by AsianHobbyist Website Maple squinted at the thing that was five times taller than her .

“Hmm… A chair?”

The thing that Maple thought was a chair was the same white as the cloud it was on, but had a brighter shine to it .

It was a giant throne .
