Defense specialization and the bulletin board.

Hello.
781 Name: Nameless Spear User
Hey, I saw the video.
782 Name: Nameless Bow User
They used to call me a walking fortress, a monster defense. Now I'm a running fortress, a monster.
What am I supposed to do now?
783 Name: Nameless Great Sword User
Not long ago I was still human, though.
The inside is the same, at least.
784 Name: Nameless Great Shield User
Just looked away for a moment, and suddenly it grew thick.
785 Name: Nameless Mage
How do you raise it so that armor deployment and body transformation occur?
Please instruct me.
786 Name: Nameless Great Shield User
It's really lightning-fast, I swear.
One moment you blink, and the next it's shed a layer.
787 Name: Nameless Spear User
A layer? One skin? Huh?
788 Name: Nameless Great Sword User
A layer peeled away. Growth? Or mutation? Class-level, surely. Surely.
789 Name: Nameless Bow User
Honestly, the Maple Tree’s all mad.
I was certain after seeing Crom’s footage.
790 Name: Nameless Great Shield User
Is that so?
791 Name: Nameless Bow User
Yes.
Crom was wearing a human skin, nothing more.
792 Name: Nameless Great Sword User
Maple’s so extreme, she makes normal people look ordinary by comparison.
Even accounting for that, Sally and the twin girls are the ones out of place.
793 Name: Nameless Magician
I’ve been run over by a Maple Tree, so I know.
You wouldn’t understand the sudden sensation of flying through the dark.
794 Name: Nameless Bow User
Frontline hit with several iron spheres?
This is clearly Maple’s lineage.
She was clearly slow-footed.
795 Name: Nameless Spear User
That’s right.
Still, she’s better than Maple, at least.
796 Name: Nameless Shield User
A gift from Maple’s training.
Finished in a single day.
797 Name: Nameless Greatsword User
Huh?
Trait: Is Maple infectious?
798 Name: Nameless Mage
She is.
Crom seems to have caught it too.
799 Name: Nameless Spear User
From the video, Crom is clearly infected.
Besides, isn’t Kasumi’s gear the same as before?
All the backline users are acting strange.
800 Name: Nameless Greatsword User
Still, in one-on-one combat, it should be manageable.
The ones who can’t manage are the dangerous ones.
801 Name: Nameless Shield User
Seriously, is there anyone who can beat Sally in one-on-one?
I tried in the guild’s training yard. Couldn’t do it.
802 Name: Nameless Archer User
Dodging, right?
From the video, it looked like she barely avoided it.
803 Name: Nameless Shield User
The rumors have spread, I assume—though they remain just rumors, as they always have.
The blows land nowhere.
804 Name: Nameless Greatsword Wielder
The tale of the maple tree? Or perhaps just the talk?
The videos from this event are overwhelming—especially how intense they are.
805 Name: Nameless Spearbearer
The third day, called with great dread—apocalypse, the war of gods and demons—
806 Name: The Nameless Great Shieldbearer
That is why it split apart.
It seems Maple alone could not manage it.
807 Name: Anonymous Archer
The difference between a handful of hope and none at all is not great.
808 Name: Nameless Mage
The moment Pain inflicted damage on Maple, I reaffirmed that Maple possessed the concept of HP.
809 Name: Nameless Spearbearer
Maple, she’s like that.
Why do you have the skill to withstand certainty?
The one who carved Maple—had they done it before?
810 Name: Nameless Shieldbearer
Here you are.
Likely not human.
And Maple-chan’s current VIT wouldn’t be reduced, anyway.
811 Name: Nameless Archer
Still rising?
Already past the point of needing more, isn’t it?
812 Name: Nameless Shieldbearer
Just heard lately that five digits are visible.
That’s what they said.
I nearly lost consciousness, really.
813 Name: Nameless Greatsword User
About fifty times my STR.
Something like that?
814 Name: Nameless Mage
Then I feel less inclined to invest in other stats.
815 Name: Nameless Archer
Glad you’re enjoying it.
In fact, once you start allocating to other stats, you can’t stop.
Just running normally becomes overpowered, really.
816 Name: Nameless Shieldbearer
Can’t tell if Maple-chan is thinking about efficiency—or not.
817 Name: Nameless Mage
I’ll go with the theory that strength came from not thinking too rigidly.
818 Name: Nameless Spearman
Ordinary thought would only tangle into knots—no way a palanquin would come to mind.
819 Name: Nameless Archer
Only image from the fourth day onward is that one.
820 Name: Nameless Greatsword User
After abruptly switching from the Flame Emperor’s battle scene, I was shown that—again, my thoughts froze.
