Chapter 6: Defense Specialized and Dungeon Attack

Exploring a dungeon huhI feel like my adventure had begun!

Using the only three thousand gold, she bought potion to be sure.

HP is only 40 so even the lowest kind of potion is enough.

There is the ring of the giant bee and there is also Meditation.

She finished preparing and went to the dungeon. Her aim was the Maze of the Poison Dragon that was written in the information bulletin board.

I have Poison Resistance (Medium) so it is alright!

Dungeon, here I come, with that feeling she jumped outside of the town.

*TekuTeku* she walked towards the opposite direction of the forest. If this werent a game, Kaede who was only holding a large shield and short sword can only be seen as an elementary school student.

She was attacked by a few monsters on the way, but they did no damage so without defeating them, she ignored them.

The monsters in this area seem to be more intelligent than the monsters in the forest, so went they understood that the attack wouldnt go through, they went away.

There was no witnesses so Kaedes abnormal defense power wasnt found out.

When Kaede was walking like that, the trees around had gradually withered and she noticed that the landscape was becoming deserted.

She also saw swamps that sound *PokoPoko* on their ground.

She walked like that by ten minutes.

She saw that there was one part of the ground was opened wide like a mouth.

Is that it huh?

Kaede entered inside, the inside had a taller ceiling that she thought, so she could properly make a stance with her large shield.

When she enters further, slimes with poisonous hues and lizards was crawling from the walls and the ground and charges an attack.

Ei!! ya!!

She stabbed the blade to the slime but she couldnt aim its core that was moves around in its body like it was drifting so she couldnt deal damage. But, the slimes tackle also, doesnt deal damage.

Muthis had become my last will. Eat this! Large Shield Preeeeess!!

Together with the large shield she fell over the slime and covered all its body. There wasnt a skill or anything so power couldnt be expected, and its an attack that makes a lot of chances because of falling down on enemy lines.

But, that wasnt relevant to Kaede who only receives no damage to normal attacks or venom.

Shield attack had very little damage, but it seems it was enough to destroy the slimes core.

Yosh! Lets go further more!

Finding out how to deal with the slime, Kaede went further and further to the back. By the way, Kaede gave up on defeating the lizards. Her AGI was not enough, and before she attack, *SuruSuru* it ran away and because she couldnt hit it.

Wondering how many times it had been, she falls to the ground with the shield. At that time.

Skill Shield Attack had been acquired

Kaede immediately read the skills explanation. She guessed the contents of it from its name, but to be sure.

Shield Attack

Attack using a shield. Power is dependent to STR. Knockback effect (Small).

Skill Requirement

Using shield attack, deal end damage to monsters 15 times.

It doesnt seem very usefulbut knockback looks strong!

While she moved further and further inside, there was like a violet flower that released a very clear poisonous-like mist, and spits poison.

Like fishes that were swimming on poison swamps.

And while getting past those, she reached the deepest area.

In front of her, a door three times higher than Kaedes height.

She put force to that double door to open it.

*GiGiGi* while sounding like its oil had dried, the door opened completely, and the inside of the room became clear.

There was poison swamps here and there, and was full of light violet liquid.

At the same time that Kaede entered that room carefully.

Behind her, the door closed with momentum.

Hyan!?

As if to erase that short scream, a dragon that has its body melted in some parts appeared from the poison swamp.

T-This is the Poison Dragon?!

Without caring about Kaedes distress, a very deep violet breath was shot.

Kaede herself was almost without scratch, but her equipments couldnt go that way.

T-The large shield and short sword

Corroded to tatters and broke down, those wouldnt mean anything as an equipment anymore. Fortunately, the ring that she was wearing under her glove was fine.

And on this instance.

Kaedes large shieldVIT 28 is quadrupled by the effect of Absolute Defense and Giant Killing (OomonoKurai). It means it dropped by 112.

With that, the damage from the breath shot by the Poison Dragon passed through further.

Every time she receives is it was 3 damage. Kaedes HP had been reduced by 1 by the first breath shot.

It means, if it goes like this, she would surely be killed within 13 shots.

Fuconcentrate! Meditation!!

Kaede closed her eyes and heightens her concentration.

This time, it would be a Meditation while pain is going through her body. Meditation wouldnt show its effects if concentration isnt heightened.

The ring and Meditation, and the potion that she bought with all her money. Using all of that, her only chance of winning is to get the higher Poison Resistance.

While she uses Meditation, the fear had gradually disappeared. Just as if Kaedes body was melting, she stopped feeling anything.

Just like that she continuously endured, and by the time her HP is under 20% left, she drank the potion.

She repeated that.

The amount of recovery couldnt catch up. Is it the potion running out, or will she gain the resistance.

It is whichever was faster.

After she endured for a while, a voice ec
