Tsutomu continued to observe the Silver Beastâs combat approach over the next few battles. The Attackers would emerge unharmed from encounters with three monsters or below. When up against six or more, on the other hand, they would take a hit or two.
The Birdkins stopped the monstersâ movements with <<feather dance="">>, and Misil precisely cut them down at their legs and vital points. This tactical approach ensured that the team defeated some of the monsters right at the start of an encounter, in turn giving them a significant advantage in the ensuing battle. Their coordination after Misilâs opening was also excellent; all three were watchful of one another and kept themselves aware of the monstersâ numbers and movements. As a result, they rarely ever found themselves at a disadvantage.</feather>
However, this method wouldnât work nearly as well in multi-wave battles, so it was expected that they would be having a tougher time on the fifty-sixth layer onward. But seeing how well-coordinated the three combatants were, Tsutomu thought that they would be able to reach the fifty-ninth layer if they were to get themselves used to the Canyonsâ terrain, and also incorporate the Feather Dance trick into the subsequent waves of monsters.
On the other hand, Tsutomu also saw that Lorena, the Healer, was still not at all accustomed to this party. She wasnât used to performing long-range support skills, either â all in all, she just seemed somewhat unconfident. Her direction of <>, youâve managed to get its effect to a practical level now. All thatâs left now is for you to improve the accuracy of your direction⌠I suppose. Please hang in there.â
âYes! Iâll do my best! Thank you!â
Lorena took Tsutomuâs hand in both hands and shook it⌠then, after the handshake, Tsutomu had to massage his aching arm.
âOh, one more thing⌠Misil, we have something else we can teach you â and since Garm is already at the Clan House today, do you have some time to spare this evening? â
ââŚYouâre not gonna charge me for that later, right?â
âNo, I wouldnât do that. Oh, but since this will be free of charge, you better get the thing right, all right? And then weâll spread the word about the greatness of Jobs other than Attackers~~!â
âHahah! As you wish, your highness!â
âMm-hm, donât worry, be happy~~!â
Tsutomu put his hands on his hips and puffed up his chest in an exaggerated manner; Misil bowed his head⌠also in an exaggerated manner. The two Birdkins looked on as if the two were children, while Lorena looked at Tsutomu with respect.
