Chapter 164

Itai no wa Iya nanode Bōgyo-Ryoku ni Kyokufuri Shitai to Omoimasu 164

Defense Specialization and Meeting Up

As Maple had accidentally used ‘Dedicated Affection,’ she decided to leave the jungle for now .

The reason was that she was currently in a state where she could be killed from a single piercing attack .

Furthermore, she had been fighting in the jungle for quite some time now and was tired .

Maple told Pain that she was leaving the jungle, then she was surrounded by light and teleported back to the main field .

“I guess I’ll go to the next place . It’s a good thing that I arrived in a place that was easy to navigate . ”

Pain muttered to himself .

The scenery in the jungle was mostly the same wherever you went, and so it was useful to be close to one of the few landmarks here .

Pain was thinking about heading to an area that was a short distance from here, where golems were known to spawn in large numbers .

And so he had no business here anymore .

Pain stepped on the magic circle and returned to the twisted tree .

“Ah…alright . Let’s go . ”

Pain switched gears and started to walk out again .

As Pain walked down the stairs, he bumped into some players who were walking upwards .

It was Chrome, Misery, Kanade, and Marx .

The four of them had been walking towards the same destination and happened to meet each other near the base of the tree . And so they had decided to cooperate .

All four of them noticed Pain .

When Chrome talked to Pain and found out where he was headed, the four of them talked about it and made a suggestion to Pain .

They said that if Pain could wait a little while, they would come and help him .

The four of them wanted a player who could unleash a lot of damage .

“…Fine . But what’s your strategy for the boss up there?”

Pain accepted their offer and asked them if they were sure they could win this fight .

“It’s not a problem . We’ll win . ”

Chrome said with finality after answering a few questions .

Pain looked at them and thought for a little while before saying:

“I’ll go too . It will be faster that way . ”

If he was just going to wait here, then he might as well fight again .

He hadn’t depleted much energy from the fight anyway, and he had been able to carefully and safely observe the enemy, thanks to having fought it once with Maple .

There was no reason that he could lose .

“It will be over quickly with 5 of us . ”

Things played out just like Pain said they would before touching the magic circle .

Pain was the main attacker and Chrome blocked the boss’s attacks with his great shield .

Pain calmly repeated the safest actions and achieved a predictable victory .

Chrome also took no damage in the fight and was able to successfully fend off all the attacks .

Though, it was unknown if Pain and Marx were relieved by his movements because they saw him as strong and reliant or some other reason .

In any case, everyone except for Pain acquired new skills .

And since they were all able to return to their original place together, they decided to head for the deeper part of the forest, which was overflowing with golems .
