Chapter 151 – 151. Happenings Flexibly!

​
Everyone’s outfits changed to combat uniforms.
​
I was wearing a white suit, Rize was wearing a maid outfit, Kang Seol-hwa was wearing a light blue leotard designed for figure skaters, and Maria was wearing a rather bizarre outfit that barely covered important parts with brown stockings.
​
It was a very desirable outfit that allowed the production team to establish the formula of a nun or saint that stimulates virtue = erotic clothing, worthy of the name of the company that used to make erotic games.
​
“Come to think of it, this is the first time I’ve seen Maria’s combat uniform. Did you pick it yourself?”
“Oh, yes! I thought of it and made it myself!”
​
The order made that I hoped for.
Maria was the designer of the Natural Skeve outfit.
​
“It suits you well, isn’t it pretty?”
“Oh, thank you!”
​
Maria blushed in embarrassment at my praise.
​
Cute.
​
“Let’s go quickly. We’ll be delayed by another group.”
​
At the urging of Kang Seol-hwa, we proceeded through the dungeon.
​
No, as much as snowfall, it made ice in front of it and slipped on.
​
Because of the gliding, the range and angle of stretching her legs a little more each time she walked was slightly different from when she was walking, so in my view from behind, Kang Seol-hwa’s thighs and buttocks stood out more.
​
‘It’s a sturdy lower body that looks very resilient, maybe because I’ve been skating!’
​
Since ancient times, the bodies of the heroines are all good.
Having a good body means having a slim body.
​
Of course, there are weights such as Chairman Shira Kamilzia, Chairman Lahisha Runberg, and Miss Dias, and the characters who temporarily participate in the party as extra characters have appearances comparable to the heroines.
​
‘Then let’s go into the strategy.’
​
First of all, the first step to a good strategy is to bring out materials related to the opponent.
​
‘But before that…’
​
-Kaeaeah!
​
First, it’s time to deal with the Flare Fox you encountered.
​
A group of three flare foxes appeared, bristling their fur.
​
The Flare Fox is a D-class monster that is twice as big as a normal fox and has zigzag red hair on its body.
​
The main use is, of course, the flame, as the name suggests.
​
It seems like a large-scale fire will happen if you fight in a bush like this, but the humidity in this dungeon is moderately high, and since it is a dungeon where Flare Foxes live, it has a high resistance to flames.
​
“Power! Shield! Speed!”
​
When I saw Flare Fox appear, I immediately put on a secondary comprehensive set.
​
And at the same timing when the pace was up, three Flare Foxes opened their mouths at the same time and spewed sparks.
​
“Maria!”
“Holly Protect!”
​
Maria, who was at the front of her, held out the buckler equipped in her left hand and activated her skill.
​
Platinum-colored magic spread around the buckler and formed a huge circle, becoming a shield and blocking the flames.
​
“I’m sorry…!”
​
The flames emitted by the Flare Fox are spherical and not directed in one direction, but radial.
​
Maria, who was also blocking the attack of three D-class monsters, let out her groan.
​
Due to the defense skill, the heat does not spread to where I am, but it seems to be an attack that will cause severe burns even if the hunter is hit incorrectly.
​
As if to show its power, the outer part of Maria’s shield began to crack.
​
“Rise!”
​
When my name was called, Rize immediately understood my meaning and flung herself to the side of Holy Protect, out of reach of Flare Fox’s attack.
​
And as soon as Rize moved, Kang Seol-hwa also moved in the opposite direction and escaped from Holy Protection.
​
The two Flare Foxes that were breathing fire noticed the movements of Rize and Seolhwa Snow and stopped the flames, leaving only the remaining one to continue breathing fire.
​
The burden has been reduced, but that doesn’t mean that the durability of Holy Protect, which has been reduced so far, is restored.
​
‘After 10 seconds, the Holy Protect can’t stand it and it breaks.’
​
The moment the eyes of the two Flare Foxes stopped the flames and turned to the two of them, they spurred the ground and moved to Maria’s side.
​
“Maria, good job.”
“Mr. Roovelt!”
“Mana Protect!”
​
Maria spreads a barrier right on top of her shield.
It’s in the middle of the fire, so it takes more mana than usual to form it.
​
‘This order is nothing to me.’
​
Seeing that the mana protection successfully deployed, Maria canceled her Holy Protection.
​
“I’m sorry, Mr. Roobelt. I have to work harder.”
“No, you did well enough. You blocked the attacks of three D-class monsters at once. Thanks to Maria…”
​
Looking forward, I checked the situation of the two people who had escaped to the side.
​
Rize, Seolhwa Kang, and the two Flare Foxes had a battle a short distance away.
​
Flare Fox each spewed flames to attack the two, and Rize and Kang Seolhwa evaded the flames without any problems and attacked them several times.
​
The skins of the two Flare Foxes were torn apart by the attack of the two, and in addition to the original red fur, the orange fur was stained red with blood.
​
And the two of them used their respective skills to finish.
​
“Nine slashes.”
“Ice cutter!”
​
A dagger slash swung continuously and an ice slash from mid-range pierced the body of each Flare Fox.
​
The two Flare Foxes lost their strength and fell to their deaths as they splattered blood.
​
There was only one left.
​
The flames that were attacking the barrier had also faded, so I canceled mana protection.
​
“…! Mr. Roovelt!”
​
Maria hurriedly called my name.
​
It was because the one remaining Flare Fox, which had just put out the fire, was trying to breathe out again with fire in its mouth.
​
Rize and Kang Seol-hwa were far apart, so it was too late to attack the remaining Flare Fox.
​
If I stay still like this, Flare Fox’s flames will come out and attack Maria.
​
“It doesn’t work.”
​
He quickly and swiftly sent mana to the staff, set the coordinates, processed the spell, and then uttered a starter word to activate the magic.
​
“Earth Needle.”
​
Flames were about to burst out of Flare Fox’s mouth at any second, when a rock awl rose from the ground and pierced Flare Fox’s chin.
​
Flare Fox with his mouth completely skewered.
​
Perong!
​
The flames that were about to pour out exploded in Flare Fox’s mouth with the exit stuck, taking his own life.
​
Rize and Kang Seol-hwa are back.
​
“It’s wonderful, young master.”
“Maria, are you okay?”
“Yes, yes! Mr. Roovelt helped me when I was lacking.”
“No, Maria is not lacking. I think she’s good enough.”
​
Kang Seol-hwa comforted Maria, who was happy that she had been helped by me, but was depressed.
​
Kang Seol-hwa has a strong desire to compete, rise to the top, and has a strong desire to be recognized by her father. Although she is basically a bit blunt towards her colleagues, she is not the type to be cold or push them away.
​
Of course.
​
“Rize and Kang Seol-hwa were great too. You could hunt a D-class monster so quickly by yourself. Both of you are amazing.”
“Thank you.”
“You defeated him in one shot… Are you being sarcastic?”
​
It’s this kind of attitude for me, who thinks I’m a competitor.
Seolhwa’s snowball bounces at me, but it’s easier to attack if you pass this level casually.
​
If you achieve the goal, you may not be able to see this tick-tick, so let’s enjoy it instead.
​
“I was just being witty. Now, let’s start again.”
“…Joy.”
“Huh? Uh uh…? Seolhwa? Are you on bad terms with Rouvelt-sama? Get along well! We’re in the same group!”
​
While I was enjoying myself, Maria, unaware of the circumstances, was anxiously trying to mediate between me and Seolhwa Snow.
​
At Maria’s intervention, Kang Seol-hwa made an expression of regret, followed by a confused expression.
​
When Kang Seol-hwa was thinking about what to explain to Maria, I spoke to Maria first.
​
“Maria. Don’t worry. I and Seolhwa Kang aren’t on bad terms. This is, so to speak… I think of them as rivals.”
“A rival?”
“You can also call it a competitive spirit. During the midterm exam, I took 1st place and Kang Seol-hwa was 2nd, right? The freshman representative was Kang Seol-hwa. It stimulates competition, doesn’t it?”
“Sigh, noisy!”
​
She kindly explained Kang Seol-hwa’s attitude to Maria in an easy-to-understand manner, but Kang Seol-hwa got angry.
​
What… It would be embarrassing for the person concerned to explain this in front of their eyes.
​
It’s no different than letting her reveal all her inner thoughts.
​
“Let’s go quickly.”
​
Kang Seol-hwa hastened the process, and I smiled and whispered in her ear so only Maria could hear.
​
“Look at that, Kang Seol-hwa doesn’t deny it either?”
“Ah yes!”
​
Maria smiled brightly, as if she finally understood.
​
“Please wait, Seolhwa! I, the front line, must take charge!”
​
I went through it again and encountered Flare Fox 2 more times.
​
Even in these two encounters, Flare Fox tried to use the method of flamethrowing after the first contact like a habit.
​
No matter how much Maria is a tank and she is said to be able to withstand 3 flamethrowers, but every time she encounters her, her mana is quickly drained to block such an attack.
​
That’s why, before they fire the flames first, they keep them in check with fast, low-power magic and widen the distance.
​
“I didn’t have anything else to do…”
​
But this way, Maria, being a tanker, has nothing to do, so Maria droops her shoulders.
​
“Don’t be discouraged, Maria. Shall we change our strategy next time?
“Yes!”
“Why don’t you and Rize work together to focus on one animal? We’re a team, and since the two of us are of the same melee type, we have to work together, right?”
“All right.”
“…Okay.”
​
Everyone agreed with my strategy and continued through the dungeon.
​
‘I don’t think I’ll be encountering monsters for a few minutes.’
​
I felt it was just the right timing while looking at the surroundings.
​
“Snowfall.”
​
Calling Kang Seol-hwa’s name, he began the crushing operation.
