Chapter 135 – Is This a Buff? (3)
When I first encountered Baccarat, I wondered what would happen.
Something similar to the situation I had imagined until now, meeting a level 100 raid boss without Freyja, unfolded before my eyes.
And to win, I took a gamble with a 50% chance of success and opened the way to victory by summoning Freya.
Now all that remains is to defeat Baccarat.
“Freya, then can you write 〈 Power of God: Sanctuary 〉?”
“If it’s God’s command, I’ll just do it…”
Freyja closed her eyes and sat down in his seat, her hands folded politely in front of her chest.
Then, a ring of light formed above Freya’s head, and a dazzling light emanated from Freya’s body.
The appearance was like an angel without wings.
It was the 〈 Power of God: Sanctuary 〉 used by the Crusader class that I had seen countless times while playing Elion, but seeing it used in reality now felt new.
This is a skill I always use to instantly gain high firepower when defeating bosses during raids.
The light emanating from Freya’s body really felt like God was giving us divine power.
The light emitted by Freyja was so bright that it made one think that a fake sun had appeared right in front of her.
“I can’t keep quiet any longer!”
When Freya used 〈 God’s Realm: Sanctuary 〉, Gigant nearby saw the light and immediately let out a scream and rushed toward the Minercia we were riding.
But Gigant couldn’t even come near us.
Because huge vortices of fire were created before us.
〈Flame Tornado〉
When Rachel, unable to fly, saw Gigant approaching, she immediately used her Elemental Master skill.
“Kaaaaa!”
Gigant is trapped between the fire vortex and screams in pain.
But even though a huge tornado of fire appeared right in front of me, I couldn’t feel any heat at all.
Did Rachel control it?
Anyway, if you look at this, it becomes clear.
〈 Flame Tornado 〉 was a skill in Elion that created a burning tornado the size of a person and shot it forward.
No matter how you look at it, the tornado that blocked Gigant’s approach is not the size of a person, but the size of something out of a disaster movie.
Since not one, but three appeared, it was natural that Gigant could not approach them.
In reality, it appears that Freya’s buff does not simply increase damage by giving additional stats to the character, but also strengthens normally used skills, greatly increasing combat power.
If this had been implemented in the game as is, it would probably have been an uproar.
The Crusader’s dependence on the party is already so high that there is even talk of removing the buffer from the game by changing the Crusader class to a dealer instead of a buffer, so is it coming out like this?
The Elion game balance exploded that day, and I can’t even imagine what will happen.
Naturally, in a situation where there is a gap between professions, by strengthening the skills themselves and allowing them to be used in different ways, strong professions will become stronger, so wouldn’t it have been a complete disaster the moment they came out like that?
Just 〈 God’s Blessing 〉 can bring about such changes, but what about 〈 God’s Power: Sanctuary 〉, which further strengthens the buff skill?
The light emitted from Freya’s body gradually weakened, and Freya, who had closed her eyes, opened them.
Just used 〈 God’s Realm: Sanctuary 〉 It feels like light is coming out of the eyes, which were originally gold.
The fact that Freya opened her eyes probably means that she has finished using the skill.
I could tell by looking at Yuria and Rachel around me.
Above both of their heads, the same ring of light that had now appeared above Freya’s head appeared.
This is proof that 〈 God’s Realm: Sanctuary 〉 has entered.
As the 〈 Flame Tornado 〉 that Rachel had just created cleared away, Gigant was seen trapped in the fiery vortex and unable to escape.
And behind it, I saw Renia, Noah, and Eli, who had received 〈 God’s Realm: Sanctuary 〉 just like me.
This is because everyone noticed a ring of light similar to mine forming above their heads.
In particular, Ellie, wearing wings of light and a ring of light forming above her head, looks like a true angel.
On the other hand, Noah, who has blood-red wings and a ring of light above her head, looks like another angel.
“Huh, huh… With this level of power… Maybe even Demonic might have a hard time…”
Gigant looks as if he has lost his mind.
From what Gigant said, it seems like the Demonic, who speaks highly, has fused with a demon higher than himself.
There is only one demon higher than Baccarat.
The only level 100 raid boss is Modeus.
In that case, there is a high possibility that the being named Demonic was fused with Modeus.
In that case, Arceus would be a higher figure in the Void organization than Demonic and would be the one who taught him information about Demons.
As for Arceus, I have no idea who he is.
Bang!
At that moment, there was a sudden loud noise and the Gigant fell towards the sea at high speed.
While I was thinking about it, it seems that Ellie, who received Freya’s 〈 God’s Word: Sanctuary 〉 buff, flew towards Gigant first and raised her mace above her head and struck her.
The reason she says she hit is because she was so fast that Ellie’s movements were almost a blur and it was Ellie who was in her Gigant twitch when her Gigant fell down.
She was blurry, but when she saw Ellie’s movements, she clearly looked like she had been struck with a regular mace.
However, the shock was almost the same as the 〈 Divine Furnishment 〉 used earlier.
Is it also 〈 God’s Power: Sanctuary 〉?
Normally, when swinging a weapon, you receive a buff, which instantly gives you almost the same power as when you used the skill.
In addition, the movement speed has also increased dramatically, perhaps due to the additional stats.
Bang!
In that short period of time, a loud sound echoes across the sea once again.
Before we could even look in the direction of the sound, Gigant rose at a high speed, higher than where we were now.
It’s the same situation as before.
It’s like when Ellie hit Gigant down with 〈 Divine Punishment 〉 and Rien, who was in the sea, raised Gigant back up with 〈 Defeated Dragon’s Pavilion 〉.
The only difference is that Ellie and Lien simply attacked without using skills.
Nevertheless, it seems like it’s the same as before, or even more shocking…
I feel once again that Freya’s buff is amazing.
And they didn’t give Gigant any time to rest.
Noah flew towards Gigant, who was ascending into the sky, created a huge sword with blood that looked like a giant would swing it, and quickly swung it at Gigant.
Gigant, who was still conscious, reacted to Noah’s attack and created a shield around himself.
Noah’s attack was blocked by the shield and could not reach Gigant.
There was definitely a pattern like that in Baccarat.
It seems that he was so embarrassed by our sudden rise due to Freya’s buff that he forgot the patterns he could play for a moment.
When using that, the damage from skills used by users is reduced by about 99%, instantly making them almost invincible.
But the way to break that pattern is simple.
The shield does not cover Baccarat’s entire body, but only blocks attacks coming from the front, left and right, and does not protect the back, so several users draw aggro from Baccarat and the remaining people go to the back of Baccarat and deal a certain amount of damage to Baccarat. As the person experiences pain, the defense shield is released.
Of course, not only I but also my characters know this method well, and Renia has already gone behind the Gigant.
Noah, who saw that Rhenia had gone behind her Gigant, swung his bloody greatsword appropriately to draw Gigant’s attention to her, and Gigant, who was distracted by her Noah, did not seem to notice Renia’s movements.
“Now stop bothering me and get out!”
Standing behind her Gigant, she put her hands on Lenia’s back and shouted loudly, and Noah, who heard the sound, immediately fell off her Gigant.
“No, before I knew it!”
Gigant heard the sound and immediately tried to avoid it.
But it was like a wish that could not come true.
〈Shining Break〉
A flash of light so thick that it would not be a problem to cover the Gigant’s entire body passed through the sky and spread out into space.
