Chapter 303

I pulled on my Duplicate Slave skill, casting haste on myself. I had moved before anyone else could. Perhaps Lydia or Celeste would have been faster, but my mind didn’t think in those terms. I was halfway to them when I put Hero job in the place of True Dungeon Diver. The monster leaped into the air, intending to crush the ninja girl under its feet and then take care of me. However, I moved far faster than it predicted.

“Terra, defend yourself now!” I shouted.

To most people, they would grow flustered and panic at the scene and being called on so suddenly. For these girls who had spent so much time in dungeons, they didn’t hesitate in the slightest. I broke into a slide, grabbing the ninja in my arms. I had only one chance, and I wasn’t even certain it would work. The boss variant was descending, its eyes excited as it planned to crush us both.

The ninja was awake, but her eyes we disordered and she could barely move. Yet, as I pulled the cloth covering the lower part of her face away, she managed to grab my arm.

“I’m sorry I brought you with me to death…” She said tearfully.

She was a pretty girl with dark eyes and grey and white hair. I only noticed she had wolf ears now that her hood fell off. Without another thought, I immediately kissed her, shoving my tongue into her mouth. She made a noise as her eyes popped open in shock, and then she passed out. I could feel the hot breath of the beast just above me. I immediately used the hero skill “switch position.”

My body disappeared, and the woman in my arms came with me. In our place, Terra appeared instead. The creature was confused at the sudden change but it didn’t care who it stomped. So, imagine its surprise when it slammed into what felt like a wall. With a whimper, the creature bounced back, it’s head painfully hitting the ceiling. It shook it’s head, confused.

However, Lydia had reached Terra. Planting her foot on Terra, she used her as a jumping point, leaping into the air before the wolf monster could even regain its composure. A dozen air arrows slammed into the wolf, propelled by a fairy queen. Compared to hastily tossed throwing knives, how could these be stopped. Lydia slammed her blade into its eye while it was reeling from the arrows.

“Confusion!” Miki cast, further disorientating the monster.

It started to fall back, spinning around to try to run back where it came from. However, how would the girls allow their prey to escape now that they had it? It had tried to harm their master! Terra grabbed its tail. Quills from its hide stabbed at her, but they broke on her iron skin.

Lydia slid under it, slicing its defenseless ankles out from under it. A boss creature that could terrify even a high-level dungeon diver was reduced to a whimpering mess within only a few exchanges. As for me, with the ninja girl in my arms, I was casting moderate heal and refresh. Her wounds fixed quickly under my aggressive use of magical spells. As her consciousness slowly regained, and then she looked up at me with a strange look in her eyes.

“Are you okay?” I asked.

She touched her lips uncertainly. “My first ki-kiss… ah! I’m fine!”

“Alright, excuse me, I need to take care of my party…”

I stood up and readjusted my jobs, putting Hero, True Dungeon Diver, and Slave Master as my three. Feeling slightly angry at this creature, I pulled out my sword. I was going to finish it off myself.
