Chapter 199

Defense Specialization and the Recovery

“Hahaha, take this!”

Just as Maple finishes getting ready, the twins sent out more swords and spears towards her .

She tried to avoid them, but failed to do so as their speed is on a completely different level now .

The swords and spears pierced into the slime’s body, but quickly dissolved without even scraping the slime’s HP .

“Oh! You’re amazing, Mr . Slime! In that case…”

Maple transformed the slime so that instead of floating inside it, it would cover her body like a mantle, and created a pair of big arms made of slime .

“Great, they feel like they’re easy to use! Well then…”

Maple spread out the slime-arms, and out of the twins that were floating in midair, she closed her grip on the girl dressed in green .

“Ah… She’s slipped away… I thought I could catch her with Mr . Slime’s help . ”

The way the slimes are configured, physical attacks don’t affect them .

However, the girl dressed in red attacked the slime with fire .

“Ah! Don’t use fire!”

Noticing that the slime’s HP decreased because of that attack, Maple pulls the slime-made arm back .

Wrapping it around her body one more time, she settled down for a moment and began to calmly look around the room for something .

Upon closer examination, Maple noticed that the room looked like a child’s room .

Although the room was considerably large, the fact that it was furnished with a desk, a closet, and other common furniture, and there were plush dolls and toys all over the place, made it look more like a child’s room rather than a boss room .

“Hmm… there are a lot of presents here… Isn’t there something I can use?”

Maple asked that to herself while the slime kept on melting the things that were being thrown at it .

“Leave the fire attacks to me!”

Maple jumps out of the slime, shaking the fire attack away with her own arm .

The fire deflected by her arm gets thrown against a present box, setting it on fire .

“Ohh! Wait, wait!!”

Still, she was relieved to manage to put out the flame with her bare hands without a problem .

And then, Maple found something that didn’t burn inside the present box .

“Oh! My sword!”

It was part of the equipment that had been stolen from her .

Realizing that Maple had found her sword, the twins spoke up .

“Oh, what are we going to do?”

“We don’t want it anyway, so that’s okay . ”

So the twins said that they didn’t want Maple’s sword .

“Alright… ‘Hydra’!”

Maple equipped it immediately and used her ‘Hydra’ .

The skill activated normally and a three-headed poison dragon appeared, heading for the twins .

However, the twins disappeared and quickly reappeared in another place, avoiding the lump of poison completely .

“Ahahaha! So weak!”

“Tsk… Alright! ‘Deploy All Weapons’!”

Maple produces something like a rifle and shoots at the twins, but the attack has little effect in disrupting them .

“We’ve already seen that . ”

“Right?”

After saying that, the twins looked at each other and chuckled .

Seeing that, Maple thought about changing her approach .

“Hmm . The rest of my equipment must be inside one of these present boxes somewhere . For now, let’s hide Mr . Slime somewhere . ”

After moving the slime to the edge of the room, she began opening present boxes one after the other, all while still taking spears and swords thrown at her back .

As swords piled on the ground, and hatchets and spears were pierced on the walls, Maple was finally able to find all of her equipment inside the present boxes .

“Phew… I’m tired . But the fight will be easier with these . ”

Having found her equipment, all that was left to do was to punish those troublesome twins .

Maple came up with a strategy while looking for her equipment .

“When fighting against someone who’s good at escaping… you eliminate the means of escape!”

Maple began walking towards the middle of the room with an evil smile on her face .

“’Dedicated Affection’ ‘Venom Capsule’”

The angel that appeared in the middle of the room quickly sinks its wings into the poisonous lump .

It turned into a giant purple sphere that sat eerily on that spot .

“’Predator’”

Two monsters appeared in front of Maple, who triumphantly stood within the venom capsule .

“Mr . Slime, you come here as well!”

The slime, who had no choice but to obey, leapt towards Maple and fell between her and the monsters .

Maple’s plan was to protect them while the ‘Venom Capsule’ was still small .

“Sally’s fake may have escaped, but don’t think that you two are going to be that lucky!”

The idea was to completely fill the room with poison .

No matter how well you can move inside this room, it won’t make a difference if everything in the room is dead .

“Let’s do this! I’m great at winning by persistence!”

Saying that, Maple began manipulating the slime here and there .
