Chapter 2211: Miyama Kaito's Birthday Celebration Party
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
Kuro had been fiercely protesting to Shiro, who had gone wild with her natural airheadedness and applied some outrageous buffs, but after a while, she let out a sigh with a somewhat resigned expression.
[Hahh, well as long as I understand whats going on, theres still a way. Lets continue Here I come, Kaito-kun!]
[Eh? Y- Yeah]
I wondered if it might be better to reset and readjust the status settings, but it seemed Kuro could still see a chance of victory, as she closed in on my character once again.
Wondering what to do, I threw out a preemptive attack just like before. Kuro used the invincibility frames that occur during guard step movement to dodge it and close the distance between us.
Pulling off an invincible dodge against a quick poke like that is a pretty difficult technique, but the fact that she did it so smoothly really shows Kuros skill.
Then, Kuros character landed a heavy attack on mine but the damage was just 1. I see, my DEF is also boosted 50 times over, so its no wonder the damage hardly gets through.
[As expected, normal attacks wont work. In that case!]
Oh! Kuro-san is pulling away from Kaito-sans character and picked up a randomly spawned weapon item!
Ah, I see, theres that option too In this game, various items, including weapons, spawn on the stage over time.
And the damage from these weapon items is a fixed value based on the weapon itself, independent of the characters DEF. So even with my DEF multiplied 50 times, she can still deal proper damage.
The weapons have different strengths, appear randomly, and break after a certain number of uses, but still, this gives Kuro a real fighting chance.
Kuros movement was sharper than mine, and with me being slightly flustered and not playing my best, she steadily dealt damage with the weapon, whittling away around 300 HP from my character.
Unn, with this, it feels like we can have a proper match. Alright then, before things get too heated, Ill use the chance while Kuro is off collecting items to activate my healing skill.
One of the abilities of the character Im using is a skill that restores a small amount of HP. The healing is only about 50 points, the animation takes a while, and if you get attacked during it, it fails. Theres also a big cooldown, so its not the most useful skill, but while Kuro is busy picking up items, I can squeeze in a little recovery.
As planned, Kuro didnt have time to interrupt me, and as the healing skill activated my characters HP shot past 3000.
[SHIROOOOO!!! You even messed with the skills!?]
[Yes. I boosted the healing by 50 times, and I made the attack skills pierce through guards too.]
[If you do that, Ive got zero chance of winning!!]
[Is there a problem?]
[Maybe I should take out Shiro before fighting Kaito-kun]
It must be devastating to think youve worked so hard to deal damage, only for me to recover it all instantly. Actually, it looks like she even messed with the HP cap, its over 999 now
[Shiro-san, this is way too unfair. Please reset it.]
[Fumu, if thats what Kaito-san says, Ill reset it. Ill return the HP to the previous value too.]
[Thank you Kuro, do you want the stats readjusted too?]
[No, thats fine. As long as the skills arent completely busted, I can still fight. Kaito-kun, you go all out too, okay?]
Seeing Kuros bright smile, I brushed away my hesitation and gave a firm nod. Kuro seemed to genuinely be enjoying the challenge of taking on my ridiculously buffed character, so I decided not to overthink it and fight seriously.
As the battle resumed for the third time, Kuros character closed in, weapon in hand. What she currently has now is a melee weapon which likely meant shed try to use invincibility dodges to get up close again.
With that in mind, I threw out the same preemptive attack as before, but this time, I immediately tilted the control stick in the opposite direction and pressed the Heavy Attack button.
By turning the character and attacking at the same time, I created a timing shift in the attack, a technique called a delayed strike. It caught Kuros character just as her invincibility frames ended, dropping her HP to zero and launching her off the stage.
Ohhh! A sharp strike from Kaito-san lands cleanly! With just one Life left, Kuro-san has been cornered! Oya? Looks like Kuros signaling for a time-out again.
[Um actually, could we adjust the stats too? I- I thought itd be fine the way things were but Kaito-kun, youre probably about as good as Amel-chan, and if youre able to counter my feints like that yeah, I dont think I can keep up]
Seeing the surprised look on Kuros face, I couldnt help but think Ah, that explains it. Earlier, since my stats were so absurdly high, Id been fighting a bit awkwardly, not sure what the best approach was. Kuro must have assumed that was the extent of my skill, and figured that even with a 50-fold stat difference, she could manage.
But in truth, Im not exactly a slouch myself. After all, I usually play alongside Amel-san, and while she is stronger than me, I can hold my own against her well enough.
[Shiro-san, adjust the stats as well please.]
[Understood. Lets go with a 5-times boost]
[U- Unn, that sounds reasonable At least I wont get one-shotted like this.]
[Kuro, should we restart from scratch? Youre down one Life now.]
[Hmm, nah, its fine. Lets keep going. Now that my attacks will actually land, I can fight properly.]
With 5 times the stats and one Life left, considering the gap between our skill levels, this might actually be a fair handicap.
Without the risk of being taken out in a single hit, Kuro wouldnt have to rely on risky invincible dodges anymore. Given her overall stronger fundamentals, even if I fight at full strength, its hard to say if Ill win.
Well, no need to get too caught up in winning or losing. For now, Ill just focus on giving it my all.
Serious-senpai : [By the way, how strong is Kaito?]
? ? ? : [Against Amel-san, his win rate is about 30 to 40 percent. Against Lilia-san, thanks to the difference in luck, he wins around 90 percent of the time. Even if he were to go up against Eulpecula-san, with the difference in experience and game knowledge, itd probably be about 70:30 in Kaito-sans favor.]
