Vol. 3 - Chapter 194 - Lv20 and the boss battle!



The battle against <Night goblin> went well, if we omitted the blunder in the beginning.

As I expected, the addition of a strong companion motivates others. With Every passing boss battle, Lulu and Celia are becoming more and more proficient at using their skills.

Huh, you mean Celestine? Butler is already a pro. How should I say, do butlers enjoy battling? Just how the heck is he so agile in evading or defense when he doesn't have any corresponding skill and her attacks are also nothing to scoff off. He can even manage to smile.

Ugh, let's leave the Celestine case for later.

Next, Ester is also getting better in fighting as she makes sure to not go overboard. Even more so when she isn't using any of her 3rd order tree skills. That's just way too OP for a mere beginner-mid grade dungeon.

Though her STR has already passed the 400 mark so there's also a chance for the situation to go haywire again with lower skills if handled poorly and drown the boss in special effects quickly, so it's quite a difficult pattern.

I guess the habit of [Going full power finding the opportunity] may have a bit too much ingrained in her body.

A boon due to my training method. You can do it, Ester!

After 10 such rounds, Lulu party has finally reached Lv20 and unlocked their 2nd order tree.

That's where I and Ester will take our leave, leaving the stage to the three. With their 2nd order tree unlocked, it should be much easier for them to fight.

That being said, a tree is very important and it's to be slowly and carefully selected while enjoying the process.

I have asked them to just use a bit of SP and activate 2 or 3 available skills while leaving the rest to later when we return back. Unlocking a plethora of them at once without understanding what will be useful for you and which one you really need will leave you in confusion simply.

So relatively, I just taught everyone what they need for now and have them activate minimum necessary skills.

This will make their battle with <Night goblin> proceed smoothly.

"Huh? Where did Ester onee-san go?"

"Ester? I have asked her to pick up <magic grass>"

<Magic grass> is a valuable material you can pick up in the <Grassland dungeon>.

It was just the right timing since Hannah also requested to collect them. Not to say her role here is over now and with nothing left to do, I have asked Ester on her trip to collect them with <Kind shovel>.

By the way, I didn't go with her since I have the role of re-popping the boss and also to supervise and heal them if necessary.

"Making the best use of everything" is the motto of players in <Dungeon Activity>.

"We're off then!"

"See you later!"

"Do your best!"

My role this round is to be healer, healing them with <Aura heal> whenever anyone's HP goes down.

The role of tank and attacker has been divided between them.

They begin with Lulu running right in front of 4 goblins.

"Come on! <Hero is here>!"

This is Lulu's taunt skill.

Soon, a phantom of Hero Lulu's wearing a cloak manifested for a moment and took a pose of holding one handed sword high in the sky which made her the target of goblins.

I don't know what it was but that was awfully cute.

"I will ask her to show me again later. <Spirit summoning>! <Elemental Lance>!"

"Gobu!?"

Celia mutters in daze when she sees Lulu's new skill effect. I also have the exact same thought.

Celia summoned the <Fire spirit> and shot down the <Sword goblin> with intermediate magic <Lance>. A magic resembling Hannah's <Fire Lance> fired from <Fire spirit> and splendidly hit a score on the <Sword goblin>.

"My turn. <High roundhouse kick>!"

"Goaah!?"

Celestine, who was quietly standing beside the Lulu without anyone noticing, launched a high kick on the sword goblin, sending it flying. Ohh, that high kick was so cool. But his movement is so dangerous. He jumped in between the space of the goblin and its sword in the blink of an eye.

"Lulu too! <Rapid Sword skill>! <Charm sword>! <Heart Charm>!"

"Gobugobu!"

"Gobugobu!?"

Lulu's opponents were two goblins.

She increases the number of rotations with <Rapid Sword Skills> to shorten the cooldown of sword skills and snatch away the offensive ability with <Charm sword>, and take even more power from them by following <Heart Charm>.

It's just <Heart Charm> is a ranged debuff, and not an attack skill, so the order of activation is opposite of what it should have been.

It's a waste of extra damage if not activated in the beginning. Let's correct her later.

One of the goblins slashed by <Charm sword> was slightly knocked back and fell down while the goblin in okay condition smashed its fist towards Lulu. However what followed was only a click sound. The fist that should have been a hit wasn't effective at all.

That was the working of passive skill <A Hero must be calm>. HP did go down though.

Well, the goblin has its offensive ability lowered so it should be nothing more than a mosquito's bite. Since Lulu's VIT is already high to begin with and coupled with the fact that princess category jobs also have excellent defensive power, it was absolutely ineffective in the truest sense.

She also heals her MP with <Hero rise in the crisis>, a unique skill unlocked from 2nd order tree. MP is the source of power for a hero.

There begins the Lulu's Counterattack.

"<Quick Spinning>!"

"<Gobu>!?"

She blows away both the goblins at once using an AOE attack with herself as the centre.

"<Elemental Arrow>!" <Elemental bullet>!"

"<Straight punch>!"

Seems like goblins can no longer be a sparring partner for them. <Sword goblin> was also turned into a wretched figure by Celestine and Celia.

Once all the goblins vanished, the main course, <Night goblin>, began to move.

"<Hero is here>! <Heart charm>!"

"<Elemental Lance>!"

"Gobaaa!"

The battle begins with the preemptive strike from Lulu's taunt and debuff skill. Celia <Lance> attack follows right after Lulu's attack but it was avoided.

"<Charm sword>!"

"<Gobaaa>!"

Just as Lulu leaps down and piled up the debuffs with <Charm sword>, <Night goblin> swung down its sword at Lulu.

"Lu, luluuu!"

Celia's scream reverberated inside the boss room. A gargantuan goblin riding a wolf brandishing its sword was an outrageously dangerous scene from a bystander perspective. But,

"Hoho, tis not even a scratch! <Point Sword>! <Charm Point Sword>!"

"Gobaa!?"

The defensive debuff attack <Point Sword> and

<Night goblin> who seems stunned and roared as if to say, what, wasn't it sure hit!? received a direct hit from the <Charm Point Sword>, a debuff attack that lowers down both attack and defense unlocked in the second order tree and another defense debuff skill <Point Sword> from totally fine Lulu.

<Charm point Sword> is the superior version of <Point Sword> and <Charm Sword>. It's a strong skill.

"<Straight punch>! <Triple backhand punch>! <High roundhouse kick>!"

Seeing boss's defense rapidly dwindling down, Celestine also closed in and launched his offensive.

<Night goblin>'s stopped on its track from receiving too many attacks.

"Now stop here. <Elemental javelin>! <Elemental Lance>!"

"Gobu! Goaaaaa!!!!"

<Night goblin> shrieked, receiving the magic attacks from Celia who found an opening. That's a lot of damage.

However, <Night goblin> didn't stop and launched his offensive and vigorously brandished its sword at Lulu.

"I'm not going to lose! <Charm Sword>! <Charm point Sword>!"

Lulu also slashed down with her sword without backing down.

I feel like I have seen this scene somewhere else. Oops, Lulu's HP is quickly going down. Nothing less from boss attacks, it's not easy to tank them.

MP has recovered almost fully but,

"<Aura heal>!"

"Uwaa! I didn't think I already received so much damage!? Time for urgent evasion <Quick escape>!"

"Gobu!?"

Lulu flustered from receiving the sudden heal and quickly get away from the boss.

<Quick escape>, an emergency evasion skill. Users escape by rolling backwards.

<Night goblin> looks confused from losing its tiny target, Lulu. Seems like the gargantuan goblin couldn't see the tiny movements.

Oh, a chance.

"Now! <Elemental Javelin>! <Elemental Lance>! <Elemental bullet> <Elemental arrow>!"

"<Straight punch>! <Triple backhand punch>! <High roundhouse kick>!"

"Gobuuu!?"

Celia and Celestine didn't waste any time to let <Night goblin> recover from the confusion and Immediately launched their full frontal assault. It didn't take long before the HP of the boss emptied before sinking into the blinding special effect.

I needed to help them a bit but seeing their battle, I think they wouldn't even need that bit of help anymore.

Anyway, the result of three battles against <Night goblin> -- Victory.
