Spoiler for Chapter 33.4:
Wow, Melt is really in her element here. Honestly it's a blast reading this since it's a wonderful chance to show how utterly devastating she can be. Obviously her battle style does get a chance to shine in CCC itself and that KP is making her even more powerful. But this chapter really showed how tough she is to handle even for a pretty solid team of servants.
This is Melt in prime condition and wow it's a lot to handle! Suzuka took a bad hit and Gawain obviously took a bad one here. Honestly if there's a card to be played (likely using Lip) then this is really the time to play it! They aren't going to last much longer.
That KP is pretty perfect for Melt. Her defenses skyrocket the lower her health gets. She's at her most careless after a fight has been going on for a while and her sadism has been ramped up. But in this case it doesn't matter since each hit she takes is significantly less effective. Both because of her defense and because she's undoubtedly been whittling away at her opponents.
Obviously not good for the main group to get rolled by her
. But it is a beautiful sight seeing Melt just show off. Even Gawain couldn't do much there. Her agility was extreme and the moment he lost sight of her...that was it!
I've got to say it's fun being able to just go through my thoughts on these chapters as they come out. I'm loving the way they are telling the story. Obviously the game did what it could, but there's something to be said about really seeing these battles.
