I got up close to the Kobold Knight in an instant and delivered a palm strike to its chest.
「『Decomposition』!」
It’s a type of martial arts that combines the Alchemy skill Decomposition and the Sleeping Strength Technique[1] .
By practicing the Sleeping Strength Technique, it beca easier destroy internal organs by way of Decomposition. Moreover, perhaps because this technique and Decomposition were highly compatible, it had trendous power, ignoring all of the monster’s resistances and barriers and deals fatal damage.
Don! 「『Decomposition』!」
I drove the heel of my palm onto the armor of the next Kobold Knight and activated 『Decomposition』.
As the monsters’ ranks increased, I had to use 『Decomposition』 several tis from the outside for it to penetrate. Until now, I had to expend lots of magic power to force the skill, but by utilizing the vibration caused by the force of the physical attack combined with the surge of 『Ki』 and 『Magic Power』 with the Sleeping Strength Technique, it manifested an effect far greater than I had theorized.
Fighting against Kobolds was a good way to train in many ways.
Kobolds had a habit of hunting for prey in packs. That’s why even normal Kobolds could do coordinated movents. And when they beco Kobold Soldiers, Archers, Mages, and Knights, they made the best use of their respective characteristics, and they coordinate their attacks under the command of Knights and Generals if they are present.
Furthermore, Knights and Generals have high weapon handling skills.
They were the ideal opponents for Sophia, Maria, and Marnie to regain their battle senses.
This applies to as well, they’re suitable opponents to practice using the combo attack of SST and Decomposition.
And for so reason, my instincts were telling to do so.
To get stronger……
To improve my skills……
It was telling that in the near future, I would need that strength……
(Maybe I should have the maids and my aides go through so power leveling.)
Simply raising one’s level does not equate to strength, but it could protect you in tis of danger.
Whether it is to run away or resist, it’s always better to have higher level.
I divided the packs of Kobolds so everyone could move easily as possible.
In response to this, Sophia switched from a one-handed sword to her Wind Spear, Tempest, and began swinging it around.
The flas of Maria’s Fire Spear, Explode, burned the Kobold Soldiers and Archers; Sophia’s Tempest devastate her surroundings with blades of wind as it was wielded.
Dogo! Gusha!!
Gigantic adamantite alloy fists flew at high speeds, smashing the Kobold Knights’ heads.
Titan’s Rocket Punch was also evolving.
Since I added magic crystals inside those fists, those fists didn’t just shoot out, they also had their own propulsion drive.
Because of this, a mass of high quantities of magic tals bestowed with strengthening magic could obliterate enemies at even higher speeds.
Kaede was also dong so moderate crowd control of the monsters near Sophia and the rest.
「Yaa!」
With a shout, the sparkling tip of a spearhead traced a path through the air.
Berkut was refining her spear skills too.
Using her light fra to offset her speed, she flew unhindered across the battlefield with her white wings.
Berkut’s Gunlance Rod easily pieced through the Kobold Knight’s armor.
With its extre toughness and hardness, the crystalized dragon fang could pierce through even magic tals like it was candy. It might even be possible to pierce through adamantite alloy if a large amount of magic power is channeled through it.
Queen Fraal effortlessly slayed the Kobolds with her magic and one-handed sword.
Ryuka-san swung her fists against the Kobold Soldiers and Knights, who were far larger in physique than her.
As I cautiously watched the entire battlefield, I continued to slaughter packs of Kobolds.
『Guoooo!!』
Then, the roar that resounded just now was not the Kobold Lord’s roar, but rather its death cry.
It seems like it didn’t take much ti for Sophia, Maria, and Marnie, who had reached the innermost part of the boss room, to subjugate the Kobold Lord.
Once we had finished harvesting the materials, we took a short break before resuming our descent through the floors.
After today’s events, I think it would be best to create a new weapon for Marnie.
The current daggers she’s holding are not to be scoffed at, but compared to Sophia’s Tempest and Maria’s Explode, it was marginally lacking.
There was simply too much of a disparity between a spear and a dagger, but Marnie’s fighting style didn’t use magic, so it made her want sothing with more explosive power.
I had a lot to think about after we return from the dungeon.
It might be a good idea to update and strengthen our party mbers’ gear.
