Itai no wa Iya nanode Bōgyo-Ryoku ni Kyokufuri Shitai to Omoimasu Chapter 313

Chapter 313
Defense Specialization and to the East
The four who went east were Dred, Marx, Mai, and Yui .
They rode on top of Tsukimi and Yukimi as they dashed through the field .
“Woah . They really are fast . ”
“Yes . Like this, we might be able to outrun any monsters we encounter…”
As they said this, one of the four-legged monsters that had attacked their base, suddenly appeared in front of them . Even Marx’s Clear was not able to erase every single one, and so it now rushed towards the four of them .
“‘Power Share,’ ‘Bright Star’!”
“‘Power Share,’ ‘Bright Star’!”
As Tsukimi and Yukimi’s masters had higher attack ability, sharing their STR caused theirs to rise, and they unleashed a spherical light that caused damage .
The monster in front of them was hit by two of them, and stumbled .
As it lost its balance, Tsukimi and Yukimi dashed forward on both sides of it . And just as they were about to pass it by, the two swung their great hammers right into the monster, erasing it with a burst of light .
“What a horrible hit and run . ”
“It really is incredible, seeing it up close…”
The general strategy for these four was to allow Mai and Yui to get close to the monsters in order to destroy them . Furthermore, since Tsukimi and Yukimi were with them, they were guaranteed a decent amount of speed as well . With Marx’s trap setting abilities put into the mix, they didn’t have too much to worry about .
The four of them looked at the map that Sally had made, and tried to figure out the location of the mark, relative to Maple Tree’s base .
“The terrain hasn’t changed, at least . According to Sally, it should be around…here?”
The shadows of the night were so dark and vast that you couldn’t see any stars . But the moon’s reflection could be seen on the lake’s surface . And since there was no moon to be seen in the sky, it was clear that there was something very strange about this lake .
“Should we go?”
“Yeah . We’ll just get attacked by monsters if we stay here looking . Besides, Marx said he finds it easier to work inside of dungeons . ”
“Yes . Clear’s abilities won’t work as well out here…”
“Then let’s get going . Though, we still don’t know if it really is a dungeon . ”
“Understood . Tsukimi!”
Mai and Yui then had Tsukimi and Yukimi run down to the side of the lake .
“For now, let’s try going to the center . ”
“Should we…use a boat?”
However, Tsukimi and Yukimi were able to swim, so there was no need for that . But as their feet stretched out towards the water’s surfaces, a most strange thing happened . Their feet did not sink, but stopped perfectly on top of the water . And after that, they were able to walk on it like it was normal ground .
“This…it looks like we were right . ”
The four continued on until they reached the center of the lake . And when they arrived, their bodies were enveloped by light .
“That was pretty quick . Well, just try not to die . ”
“Yeah . ”
“Yes!”
“Yes!”
As they waited excitedly, their bodies were covered completely, and they were teleported off to the dungeon .
The place they came out in had a ground that was covered in water . Even the walls were damp . The overall atmosphere was damp and humid . It was a circular area and it was easy to see that this was the starting point .
There was only one passage leading away, so they had no choice but to follow it .
“Well, let’s go then . ”
“Yes . Alright, Clear… ‘Transparent . ’”
“Are we invisible now?”
“Yes . But be careful, it doesn’t work on every monster . ”
“I don’t know if I would be able to deal with this during PvP . Even if I knew about it . ”
“…Maybe . ”
They cautiously made their way down the passage . Then they saw an eel that was about a meter in length, coming toward them from the other side . It was enveloped in water as it swam through the air . A trail of water was left behind it, and they could hear sparks of electricity as pale light flashed .
And while the four brandished their weapons, the eel had not seen them, and passed them by .
“Mai!”
“Yes!”
The two stepped forward and swung their great hammers as hard as they could .
The leisurely swimming eel felt the full force of this attack as it was pounded out of the air . There was a loud popping noise as it slammed into the ground and exploded with electricity and light before disappearing .
“What an extravagant assassination…”
“All the better with ‘Transparent . ’”
As they would be exposed when attacking, he and Izu had had to use it when entering the dungeon . But it had a very different effect for Mai and Yui . For the monsters, it was as if an invisible, instant death attack was coming out of nowhere . And since they died in one hit, there was no fear of getting caught .
“That’s something that couldn’t be done in our guild . ”
“Well, it’s just a skill for ambushes…”
“Ah, it seems we’re visible . Can you put it on again!”
“Ah, it seems we’re visible . Can you put it on again!”
