Bofuri: I Don't Want to Get Hurt, so I'll Max Out My Defense., Vol. 5 (light novel) (Bofuri: I Don't Want to Get Hurt, so I'l, 5)

NEW DAY, NEW EXPANSION! After going toe-to-toe with two of the strongest guilds on the entire server, Maple Tree proved itself as a force to be reckoned with when they placed third overall in the latest event. That said, war isn’t all the guilds are good for! Maple and her friends have steadily grown closer to members of the Order of the Holy Sword and Flame Empire as their rivalries give way to something more. With new friends and powers, everyone is more than ready to dive headfirst into the newly released stratum! "When it comes to the VRMMO NewWorld Online, Kaede Honjou isn't your run-of-the-mill greenhorn gamer. Forgoing a typical stat allocation for her Great Shielder, Maple, she pumps all her points into defense from the get-go! Her reasoning? "I don't want to get hurt." With no magic, agility, or strength to speak of, this walking fortress will have to get creative to beat the baddies early on. But little does she know that her pure-stat build will propel her to chaotic new heights that even the game admins couldn't account for!"-- Provided by publisher ?Following their incredible performance in the treasure hunt event, Maple and Sally are interested in one thing and one thing only--buying a house! After all, every guild needs a home. Though their guild is still small, the girls and their friends are excited to have a place to meet, train, and grow--especially now that the newly minted guilds are all going to be facing off in the next big event! This is the birth of the legendary Maple Tree, the guild whose name strikes fear into the hearts of all who hear it! Having advanced to the second stratum, Maple and Sally prepare for the upcoming event: a week-long exploration fest and battle royale. But there's one attack that no amount of defense can protect Maple against-the admins nerfing her! With limits placed on her invincibility and the viability of her extreme build in question, Maple will have to find new ways to break the game if she wants to keep up with the top rankers!
