Chapter 104 - 105 – Blueberry & O’a VS Players.
"…"
"Say. Should we chase after that guy that just run away?" – asked the male player.
"No." – said the player with helmet.
"Apparently, one of the players that supported the monsters had completely annihilated the entire player resistance by himself."
"However, there was no info about female lizardman or that dark elf that just run."
"There was apparently a second group of players with the monsters and each one of them were powerful like hell that ended up taking over the Green Sand city."
"So I guess that this girl and that guy must also be a real deal or something since they are working with those powerful players."
"On top of that, look. That talking skeleton fits the description posted on the net."
"That thing isn't a player but a monster working for the necromancer."
"It was able to cut down a lot of players with ease."
"So, you are saying that these two are strong?" – asked the female player with bow.
"Yea. So, we need to deal with them while they are splitted apart." – said the player with a helmet.
"Deal with these two than chase the guy that just left."
"…"
(This guy in the helmet seems to be their leader.) – though Blueberry.
(Should I try to take him down first?)
(No. ClownFrog told me that my actions cannot be too obvious against the thinking enemies.)
(Instead, I should try to create an distraction that will give me an opening.)
(And one of the best way to create distraction he said was-)
(Destruction!)
Blueberry put a green grenade into her gun before then aiming with it at the players, making the players instantly put up their guard and raise their shields.
Blueberry fired with her gun, but to everybody surprise the thing that flew out from the gun wasn't a bullet but a round shaped object.
"?"
The object quickly hit the one of the armor wearing players shields and instantly blew up, spreading a cloud of poison everywhere.
"Eght?! What is this?! Poison?!"
"Shit! Priest! Do- "
Before the man could finish speaking, his head was suddenly cut off.
"?!"
"Hi!" – said O'a.
[Undeads cannot be poisoned.]
O'a began rampaging around, cutting nearby people, until a mace out of nowhere flew at him, forcing him to block.
"…"
O'a looked at the man with a helmet that was carrying a shield and a mace.
After blocking the mace, O'a tried retaliating by swing his sword that were enchanted with burning acid, but the man quickly raised his shield and summoned a barrier of light as well.
The man managed to somehow block the O'a attack, but his barrier ended up being destroyed.
"?!"
(What the fuck?! He destroyed my barrier with one hit?! I know this was the weakest barrier I had, but still!)
(Oh? I know this. It was barrier that light priest uses.) – though O'a.
(But his equipment doesn't appear to be that of a priest.)
(Is he paladin then?)
(Interesting.)
The poison cloud created by Blueberry didn't lasted long and began slowly disappearing.
"…"
"Everybody! Split up!" – said the player leader.
"Close combat and support focus on that skeleton! Long range and assassin focus on that girl!"
"!"
The players quickly took their positions according to the leader instruction.
(Ho? They want to counter us?) – though O'a.
(Not bad idea and honestly, I want to see that girl in action and see how well she manages.)
Blueberry put away her grenade launcher and took out a different gun before then running towards the group of mages and archers.
"?!"
(She swamped her weapon?!) – though the party leader.
[Two days ago, in real time.]
"…"
"S-say… Am I weak?" – asked a woman that plays as Blueberry.
"Hm? What do you mean?" – said man that is known as ClownFrog.
(She wanted to have a private meeting with me, only to tell me she is weak? Is something wrong?)
"W-well… Rampage is excellent tank and fighter."
"Oron and GreyHunt are great at doing many task, while you and Shri are able to command your monster perfectly."
"But me? I'm not a full combat class user like you guys…. Am I getting in your guys way or something sometimes?"
"…"
Then man flicked the girl in the forehead.
"Ow?!"
"You are bloody idiot, you know that?" – said the man.
"…What?" – said the girl.
"For crying out loud. I will just say it straight."
"You are much stronger than any average player that is only using combat related classes."
"Even if you were not to join our guild or play solo from the start, I can see you being able to grow to be one of the best players in the game, even when not being an full combat class user and I'm not joking or giving you an empty compliment right now."
"This is reality."
"?!"
"B-but-"
"But what?" – said the man.
"I'm going to say it straight. Don't look on yourself too much."
"I could see that you didn't completely trusted us from the start and you have shy personality."
"However, you are not a burden or a weakling."
"I don't say that you need to be brave or confident from get go, since I know that isn't how it works and it's hard for some people to change."
"However, believe in yourself bit more."
"But… My only strength is my equipment." – said the girl.
"And? This equipment was made by who?"
"You are talented in crafting and you were able to create so many interesting things. If we weren't in the rush right now with our plan, I could see you being able to improve your crafting to another level."
"You are able to make yourself stronger by creating a equipment that you can use."
"However, crafting isn't your only talent."
"?"
"What do you mean?" – asked the girl.
[Back to the present.]
The archers and mages began firing at the Blueberry nonstop.
Blueberry was somehow managing to dodge most of the attacks with her speed, but some of the attacks were hitting her.
(This is good! The weapon she must have changed is probably a close range.) – though the archer player.
(She is dump! She should have been-)
Suddenly Blueberry began moving her left arm before then stopping and throwing a chain hook at the players that was attached to her arm.
The hook flew right towards the players from the side.
"?!"
The players noticed the hook incoming and quickly deployed the barrier to counter it, however and blocked the hook.
However, as soon as the mage player deployed the shield, he got suddenly shot in the head and killed.
"?!"
(What?!)
(Wait! This is a rifle! This isn't a close range gun!) – though the archer.
Suddenly, Blueberry let go of her gun and began swinging with her second hand before the throwing a second chained hook at the players.
The players couldn't react in time this time and of the players ended up getting pierced by chained hook right in the neck, wrapping itself around the man neck before then having Blueberry use the chains to crush the man neck and kill him instantly.
"…What?" – said the archer as he saw another party member getting suddenly killed.
What do you mean I have another talent?
It's just like I said.
You probably didn't noticed it, but did you saw how you used your equipment?
???
Em… Yes? Is that my talent?
Yes, you idiot. However, your talent is pretty interesting.
You are able to understand the equipment nature quiet easily and able to use the equipment poetical to the fullest.
In that world full of magic and weird stuff, this talent is some sort of cheat skill if I'm being honest.
I'm going to say it straight. You are genius.
However, here comes the interesting thing about you.
If we combine both your talent for making equipment and talent for using equipment, you will get an interesting-
"M-Monster." – said archer.
(What the heck is going on?!)
(She hasn't used any skills yet, but she already killed 2 people in an instance.)
(What the hell is with her equipment anyway?! A grenade launcher and some sort of chained hook weapon?!)
(What is her class?! Does she have a unique class or something?!)
Blueberry retracted both of her chains before swinging her arms around and making the chains wrap around her arms before then picking up the rifle from the ground.
One of the rouge players tried sneaking up one Blueberry, but she didn't even looked towards the player direction and just shot him with her rifle and hitting the man in the chest.
"…"
"Hehehe. Oh man. I thought she was weak, but at this rate she will kill all of your friends before long." – said O'a.
"I guess she could even handle all of you by herself."
"Well, I also want some fun, so entertain me." – said O'a.
"…"
(Fuck! What is going on!? That girl will really kill them all at this rate!) – though the player leader.
(We need to quickly deal with that skeleton and go and help them out before they all die!)
"Buffs!"
The party leader as well as the supports began using various buffs on the close range party members as well as party leader.
(You over confident skeleton! You are not a player! You are just a monster!)
(There is no way we are going to lose to you!)
True.
A skeleton wouldn't stand a chance against a players.
But here is 2 fun things.
O'a is a unique boss and he also received a massive power up from the ClownFrog.
In other worlds, O'a current potential is nothing like his human counterpart.
"Heh. Fun." – said O'a.
O'a took a stance and raised both of his swords, before then unleashing a powerful burning acid flame from his blades.
"[Blade Aura: Melting Wave]!"
O'a unleashed a giant sword slash that he once used against ClownFrog, but now being enchanted with the power of burning acid.
"!?"
"SHIELDS!" – shouted the party leader.
The shield wielding party members and the priest deployed barriers before the attack hit them.
Moments later the player defenses and O'a crushed with each other, resulting in the destruction of both the defense and attack.
"?!"
(He broke this thing?! How?! This was defense made by multiple players!)
"[Twin Blade Aura: Hawk Cobra]!"
"?!"
Before the players could understand the situation, the O'a unleashed another attack that flew straight at the players on the back, hitting one of two priest players and instantly killing them.
"?!"
(What?!)
"[Blade Aura: Assassin Darts]!"
"!"
The party members at front were quickly forced to prepare for the defense once again with their shields.
"!"
(Okay! Those attacks are not that strong! We can-)
[Your defense has been decreased.]
[Your defense has been decreased.]
[Your defense has been decreased.]
[Your defense has been decreased.]
"?!"
"What the fuck?!"
(Wait! Those attacks aren't meant to damage us but weaken us!)
"!"
(The attacks stopped?!)
The party leader tried looking past his shield, but then he saw O'a leaping straight at him.
"Hello."
O'a stabbed the party leader right in the eyes with his burning blades, before then lighting on fire the party leader and killing him with the burning acid flames.
"Man. You are definitely stronger than those guys I encounter before, but nowhere strong enough to beat me, or my boss."
"So please. Try to entertain me bit more before we kill you all!" – said O'a
