Thank you for your kindness, master.
Dont mention it. By the way, its great that you managed to avoid the remains of the Green Caterpillars threads, but what would you have done if I wasnt able to use magic or if that last Fire Storm was late by a few moments? Wouldnt that put you in quite a pickle?
How so? The enemy was defeated and its threads disappeared in the idle of an attack so there is no point overthinking it, but in the case that it did not happen and the threads would still be there, I was simply planning to dodge it once more, but this time even further back.
She was planning to jump even further back, despite the fact that the dodge she made just now was already over some pretty crazy distance? Is there no end to how amazing this girl is?
I guess youre right with that. And its not like I could do much else on my end either, since here on the fourth floor I need four shots of spells to defeat our opponents.
True, but even when we are fighting against a group of three enemies, as long as masters magic is able to kill one of them, that is already a huge load off my own shoulders, since fighting against two enemies at the same time is much more manageable than fighting with all three of them at once.
Doing my best not to go right into a panic attack, I slashed at Hachinosus ass from the right, then from the left, then from up to down and down to up and then from upper right to lower left and lower left to upper right.
The entire battle was more chaotic then I would have liked, but thankfully my barrage of slashes was enough to kill the Floor Boss, granting us free access to the next floor. I guess this was just another case of a Floor Boss looking all big and scary only actually be easy to defeat once you get the hand of its attack patterns down or have a Party member occupying its attention from the front while you hack away at it from the back.
Even after such an intense boss battle, Roxanne was, as one would expect, completely unscratched and looked to be totally unfazed both by the Hachinosus size and its ability to attack those who would stand behind it. I have to keep it a secret from her that I was scared the whole time, or else she might think that I am a lame master.
When we reached the fifth floor, the first group of enemies we encountered were Minos Lv.5. I slashed one of them with Durandal, but much to my surprise, it was not defeated with a single strike. I have to say, I am impressed that it was able to one-shot pretty much every enemy throughout the first four floors, but I also think that it was about time for the difficulty bar to be raised higher, since there was no way for things to always go too smoothly for us. Having accepted that inevitable fact, I defeated a Mino that I was facing against with Durandals second slash.
The next group of enemies we have encountered after Roxanne guided us to it was made entirely form the new type of monsters, the ones native to this particular floor: Cheap Sheeps. Even though they looked all fluffy like regular sheep, their attitudes were not friendly at all. They were quite ferocious and looked like they were ready to bite your face off if only you allowed them to do so. They also have horns, but unlike those of Minos, the ones belonging to the Cheap Sheep are not straight and sharp, but thick and curved in a shape that resembled a spiral. Being hit with that will definitely hurt, but they do not look as terrifying as the horns of the Minos that were like small spears.
I shot the one before me with Fireball while Roxanne focused on the other two and slashed away at them with her Scimitar.
