2 Chapter 2 : The Necromancer : Appearance

We were greeted by a cold breeze coming from the boss' room. We set afoot on 'its' lair, there the dungeon boss was waiting for us to arrive. Its huge back facing us turned around towards us, everyone took out their swords, as the air become colder and colder, their hands started to shake, making their grips on their sword to weakened. The 'Necromancer' move its mouth as if it was trying to say something. At first it was all its mouth trying to speak and after trying a few times, a surprising thing had happened, the 'Necromancer' made an inaudible sound. "What is it trying to say?" Neil made a face. And then a loud shriek of voice echoed throughout the entire dungeon affecting our hearing sense. "This is my first time seeing a monster trying to speak" Neil who's the most experienced hunter there encountered his first ever talking monster. "Hey guys!I don't think we can beat that tough looking monster!" Oriam can sense the powerful aura oozing out of the 'Necromancer'.

"Of course! Who do you take me for? Oriam!" Neil raised his sword as he shows pride in his capabilities.

"Then, I'll count on you all"

The different appearance of the Necromancer from the normal one is that it is a slightly huge,beefy body monster with its heart being covered by its ribs but no flesh attached to it.

The Necromancer extended its arm then undead monster crawled up from the ground.

"This will be a tough one, since it can summon undead monsters!" Neil used his both hands to hold to his sword.

The Necromancer then instructed its monsters to attack Leo and Others. They also ran towards the approaching horde of undead monsters whilst Leo watched them from afar. Leo knew that there's nothing he can and that's what frustrated him the most.

Neil, Oriam and the others are managing to hold their own against the undead monsters whilst Annie' having a hard time protecting herself since she can't fight. They're really having a hard time dealing with the undead because every time they cut, torn off its whole body and killed it, the undead monsters will just come back to life and begin attacking them.

"This battle is taking too long! We have to focus on the Necromancer or else we'll run out of mana!" Neil who was repeatedly using his skills was starting to run low on mana. Annie's mana too, since she's constantly healing them for just a graze and giving them mana so that they wouldn't dry out.

Oriam's focus shifted from the undead monsters the Necromancer watching them slaughters its minions. Oriam went over to the Necromancer, it saw the incoming Oriam but it didn't move a single inch from where it stands until Oriam reached the Necromancer. Oriam holds his sword tightly then he swiftly swung it horizontally, his sword found its mark and reached its way to the Necromancer's left atrium part of its ribs. In that moment, Oriam thought that his sword would pierced its ribs and cuts its heart into half. The clack sound of the sword and the ribs coming into contact against each other echoed at Oriam's ears. His glad looked on his face was washed away as he saw his sword parried by the Necromancer's ribs protecting its heart.

Neil saw that Oriam's attack didn't succeed so he too, headed over to help Oriam fight the Necromancer.
