Chapter 196: 196

Itai no wa Iya nanode Bōgyo-Ryoku ni Kyokufuri Shitai to Omoimasu 196

Defense Specialization and the Mansion 3

“Anyway…while I’m being attacked, it seems fine for now . I think I’ll just watch . ”

Maple separated the wool and stuck her head out in order to look at her surroundings .

At the same time, a single sword flew at her .

And while the sword ended up bouncing off of the wool, it stayed in the air and then flew towards her once again .

“What!? So no one is throwing it…”

Maple now understood that there wouldn’t be any openings once the attacker grew tired . And so she tried to search for something she could use .

“Hmm . That fancy armor . ”

Maple looked at the fancy armor that had initially caught her attention .

Maple realized that the armor was covered in a pale light and that it was quietly staying there without directly attacking her .

And then she realized that the flying swords and spears had a similar light around them .

“I have to defeat that armor! ‘Deploy all weapons’!”

Black pillars grew out of the wool .

The numerous limb-like extensions all had guns and canons attached to them .

“‘Commence Attack’!”

As Maple’s guns began to fire, the floating sword and spear began to spin at an incredible speed, blocking the bullets .

“Wow…no, uh, ‘Hydra’!”

As if to suggest that she was merely holding back with the previous attack, the Hydra swallowed the sword and charged forward .

It thrust into the fancy armor in the back . The ground turned into a sea of poison as the Hydra bit into the armor .

The floating weapons fell to the ground . Now there was nothing that attacked Maple .

“Oh, the chains came off too . Alright, I don’t need the wool anymore . ”

Maple took out the item and set the wool on fire . Then all of the wool that was covering her disappeared .

Maple slowly regained her posture and landed on the ground .

“Oomph . Good! I wonder if there is anything here?”

It was just as Maple was about to take a step forward . The pale light started to overflow from the broken armor and fill the air .

“What is it?”

Maple watched this sight without much caution . After a while, the light took a certain shape and even changed in color .

After the pale light started to fade, what was floating in the air was a young girl .

Her clothes were a bright green that did not match the atmosphere of the mansion . She had long silver hair and green eyes .

The girl looked at Maple and chuckled .

Maple frantically raised her shield . Just then, a hand stretched out from behind her .

Maple spun around, only to see an identical girl there, this time in a red dress .

“You shouldn’t do that . You should throw such a dangerous thing away . ”

Maple’s shield and armor came off and started to float in the air . They were enveloped by a thin purple light before disappearing .

“Do you want to play? Little girl . ”

Said the girl in green as she rotated in the air . Then the armor that was covered in a pale light got up noisily and floated in the air .

“Want to have fun? Little girl . ”

Said the girl in red . Then the floor and walls began to twist and crumble, causing the space they were in to be overwritten with chaos .

Hallways that hadn’t existed now stretched out . Floors, ceilings and doors appeared . The mansion was so far from its original shape now .

“We’ll count to ten first . ”

They both said with a laugh . Then they turned into a blue and purple light and disappeared through the walls .

The two of them had not given Maple enough time to react .

“What?! Huh? What!?”

As Maple turned around frantically, she saw that the armor was approaching her .

“Uh, oh, I can’t use Hydra . Uh, not Savagery either… Yes, ‘Deploy all weapons’!”

Maple realized that she could use ‘Machine God’ to pay the cost in advance .

Gears and tubes appeared all over her body as weapons began to grow .

“Good!”

“Ahh . After everything we said . She’s using something dangerous . ”

“She is . ”

The voices echoed in the room just as she was starting to feel relieved .

And with that, a blue and purple light surrounded Maple, and her weapons shattered and disappeared .

“Bad children…”

“Should be punished!”

As these voices rang, spears and swords covered in blue light began to appear from the floor and ceiling .
