Chapter 134. Stone Golem Battle
“[Rock Bullet]!”
“[Wind Slash]!”
“[Flame Lance]!”
“[Icicle Lance]!”
The four-color attacks of, Kazane-san, Yuzuki, Aria-san, and I struck the giant stone statue, Stone Golem.
However, Stone Golem charged forward without showing any sign of being affected by the damage.
I readied my spear that enveloped in the flames of [Fire Weapon] and ran towards the Stone Golem.
Kazane-san, wielding two short swords imbued with flames, rushed towards the massive monster like a whirlwind.
Yuzuki and Aria-san provided support from the rear with their magic.
Since Aria-san’s water attribute excelled in healing magic as much as the earth attribute magic, I let her take on the healer role this time.
That allowed me to focus on being the attacker.
“Yuzuki! How much HP is left?”
“544/750! We’ve shaved off quite a bit!”
“Good! Yuzuki, keep using [Flame Lance] on it!”
“Got it!”
I thought it would be considerably tough, but if we managed to deal that much damage with the opening magic attacks. That was a good start.
At this rate, we might be able to defeat it relatively easily—
“—Daichi-kun, here it comes!”
Kazane-san’s voice.
The enormous moving statue looming before me swung down the halberd-like weapon it held, aiming for me.
It infused its arms and the weapon with the glimmer of skills.
It must be the skill for a two-stage slash.
Stone Golem’s movements might seem sluggish at first glance, but as a boss, it was much faster when compared to Gargoyles and such.
Though I had the effect of [Quickness], it was not an attack I could easily dodge.
“Ugh…!”
The giant halberd blade slashed diagonally, and just as I thought, the next moment, the same blade struck again, delivering a second attack.
That attack is similar to my [Three Strikes], a semi-automatic continuous attack.
The attack broke through my Iron Shield’s defense, then penetrated my armor and [Protection], dealing damage.
However, I’m not that injured due to the multiple layers of defenses.
In contrast, Stone Golem, after executing its two-stage slash, left itself with a slight opening.
I seized that chance and stepped forward to launch an attack.
“Here’s my retaliation, [Three Strikes]!”
“Yaaaah!”
Kazane-san also simultaneously unleashed an attack.
It seemed like she had already landed one hit before, so this was her second strike.
We attacked it 5 times instantly, with our 3 weapons enveloped in flames.
With a loud sound, Stone Golem’s body bore the marks of impact, as if it melted lava.
“──Oops!”
After her attack, Kazane-san swiftly evaded sideways. Right after, the Stone Golem’s giant halberd swung down to the spot where Kazane-san had been just moments ago.
The skill-infused two-stage attack sliced through the air with stunning precision.
“Daichi-san, I’ll heal you! [Hydro Heal]!”
“It has 268 HP left! [Flame Lance]!”
Aria-san’s advanced healing magic poured onto my body, fully restoring my injuries.
Meanwhile, Yuzuki’s attack magic struck Stone Golem again, dealing damage.
” Its remaining HP is 156! ──Senpai, Kazane-san!”
“Alright ── [Three Strikes]!”
“I’ll return the favor too!”
Kazane-san and I did another rush of physical attacks.
The result──
Stone Golem’s massive body turned into a black mist and vanished.
A quite large magic stone fell to the ground.
It seemed we succeeded in defeating it.
It wasn’t as impenetrable as I had thought.
Maybe our party’s firepower is considerably high.
The battle scene also felt quite stable.
Having Aria-san as another healer made my maneuvers easier.
“Oh, it seems I leveled up.”
Kazane-san murmured.
She landed the decisive blow.
By the way──
Her voice was a bit too loud.
“Uh…? Your level went up?”
“””Ah…”””
Kazane-san’s murmur was audible to Aria-san.
.What should we do?
Our secret of being amid limit-breaking might get exposed.
Well, we could say that Kazane-san was at level 24, but it felt bothersome to lie.
It might be easier to just tell her the truth.
On the other hand, after defeating Stone Golem, the door at the back of the boss room began to open with a rumbling sound.
“Well… Let’s get out of here.”
“Uh, yes. That’s a good idea.”
We decided to play it off and leave the place.
.
In the boss room, there was a small room beyond the door, and we saw a teleportation magic circle drawn on the floor.
When the 4 of us stepped on the teleportation magic circle, as usual, we were engulfed by a bright white light and a feeling of floating──
