[Name: Angal, The Cruel Level: 10 Grade: Rare

Skills:

Paw Slash: It raises its paw and slashes at the enemy.

Note: You cannot see the stats and the Ultimate Skill of the monster.]

The bear was huge. It looked like a standard bear but magnified. Not a single person could withstand a single hit with current level and gear. Qi could solo this boss, but he was still in the group and didn't wanted to show off his Ultimate Weapon.

"Wow! This might be the first Rare grade boss. We might as well try to kill it." said Gadovi excitedly.

Everyone was excited. Not only because it was a Rare grade monster boss, but because who ever gets the first kill will have their names recorded in Hall of Fame. And at the current stage of the game, this was the best way to gain popularity. The other four were overflowing with excitement and eventually turned towards Qi. Ani asked, "Would you like to join is in this first kill?"

Qi replied reasonably, "Brother I would surely join, but the truth is that the boss is level 10 and we are level 3. If we die, we will wipe our experience points and it will be set to 0 of level 3. Moreover, this boss's difficulty is much higher. It will be as if we are facing 5 stars difficulty compared to us facing this boss at level 10. We stand no chance at all."

For a moment they understood. But they were still level 3. It was not like they were level 30. Obtaining 5% EXP at level 30 will be more than 100 times harder than obtaining 5% EXP at level 3. They discussed a bit more with Qi and finally they decided to start the battle. It was a win-win situation. If they died then also it was fine, if they were successful then it was the best.

Qi decided to trust these people and took out his Trishula. He then gathered everyone and told about the Trishula and posted its stats in the party chat. He told them, "Please do not let this information out for now. It will just make me public enemy no 1. I will take the aggro of the boss and tank it. You guys just need to deal as much damage as possible."

All of the 4 people were shocked. The scene was like they had been turned to statue when they looked at something amazing. Qi expected this scene so he didn't say much. He stood there with his Trishula and waited calmly for them to recover. It took 5 whole minutes before the first person recovered.

The first one to recover was Shuugo. He asked, "Bruh, do you even have any friends? With this weapon, you can easily kill level 8 monsters with a single strike. Don't tell me that the story you told about you having friends and you killing monsters together is false."

Qi didn't wanted to open himself, but he had a weakness that he couldn't overcome. He trusted people who behaved nicely with him. And at that time, he trusted these 4 people. Although he had doubts, he still wanted to talk about his life with someone. He had friends in real life, but they rarely met each other. He had Mom, but in the end she was his Mom and he couldn't treat her as a friend, maybe because of the culture he learned or maybe because of his mindset. But in the end he had no one else that he could share his feelings with.

"You guessed it right. I have very few friends and I rarely meet them. I solo hunted the bears here." Qi confessed.

Again all of them shocked. They thought that how could a person like this exist. Powerful yet lonely. They decided to befriend him and treated him as a friend from that point. Till that point they treated him like a pug player. But after seeing his worth and his loneliness, who wouldn't want to befriend that type of person. Unless the person who didn't want to befriend him was a total retard. Finally Reinhard spoke, "You better kill this bear boss, or else you will have to pay for all of our medical fees with your precious time. Hahaha"

They all cheered up and Qi felt at ease. He felt that this guys got his back. Before he started, Ani said, "Any loot drops, the first person to choose will be Qi. Everyone agreed?"

They all agreed as they knew that even if they didn't receive any loot, they will have a name in Hall of Fame. Qi also added one more thing, "Please let me have the last hit. I have an item which increases the drop rate." He posted the description of the Wheel of Luck in the party chat. Again shocked. They all thought, 'Does this guy have any more shocks to give? Must be our lucky day that we found him.' Gadovi finally said, "Most probably you will only get the last hit. I doubt this boss can even last 1 full minute. Your DPS is more than 300 with that weapon, that is enough to kill this boss in less than 1 minute."

"Yea, we just need to be careful of its Ultimate attack. Let's do it."

Saying that he went into the aggro range of the bear boss. Angal looked at Qi as if he was the last existence that threatened its own life and it will kill him in one sweep. Killing Qi in one strike was easy for the boss, but connecting its attack to do damage to Qi was nearly impossible because of Qi's reflexes. He went straight towards the boss and thrust his spear on its right leg. Angal screamed in pain as it looked towards its right leg in pain. Then he was filled with more anger and stared at Qi. He used his skill 'Paw Slash'. The time it took to actually hit the target was 3 seconds after the skill was started. Qi analysed that easily and he thrust his spear 3 more times before he dodged the boss. In the meantime, all the other 4 party players weren't just looking at the spectacle, they also started their attacks.

The damage text above Angal looked like,

-310, -305, -10, -20, -15, -22, -350, -12, -19, -17, -21, -700

In those 3 seconds, the boss was thoroughly enraged on Qi, as he was the main attacker. If anyone saw the damage numbers that were appearing here, they would act as if they received 420 Volt shock. 300 damage is not that hard to attain, the hard thing was to attain 300 damage while fighting a Lvl 10 boss when you yourself is Lvl 4. It was nearly impossible, but Qi made it a reality.

Qi and company showered their attacks like they were giving blessings to the bear. Qi skilfully maneuvered the bear so that its attacks doesn't damage any teammates. Qi dodged all its attack like he was dancing in the wind. Such gracefulness cannot be seen everywhere.

Although the boss didn't showed its actual HP, it still had HP bar. It was nearly depleted to around 10% of its original HP in less than 30 seconds. It would then use its Ultimate skill. Qi didn't wanted that. Then he suddenly remembered a skill that came with his Trishula. 'Wrath of Shiva' can be used 3 times a day, and he has yet to see a spectacle from his weapon. He activated the skill. Suddenly the skies were filled with dark clouds and the weather changed in a blink of an eye. There was lightning and thunder. It felt like the God of destruction himself has come to visit. Then suddenly, in a fraction of a second, all the thunder and lightning converged towards the tips of the spear. The scene was truly amazing. It was as if the spear itself gave birth to lightning and thunder. At the time Qi was greatly amazed and at the same time self aware. He knew that in few seconds the bear will go into Frenzy state and use its Ultimate attack. The chances to evade Ultimate attack were very thin. He knew this because of his previous experiences in 'Asura'.

He used all his stamina to increase his movement speed for a second and used that momentum to thrust his spear in the head of Angal, the Cruel Boss. All the other four looked at Qi and the scene touched their hearts. His movement speed was so fast that if anyone watched with naked eye, they would feel like he was flying. In few milliseconds Qi arrived near the head of Angal and thrust his spear in the space between its 2 eyes. A horrifying damage figure appeared.

-3762!

"Whoa!" All the other exclaimed with shock. This guy was giving them too much of a shock. Will they be able to handle all that shock? As soon as the attack connected, and the damage figure appeared, the bear was devoid of life. He fell on ground with as loud thud. Many items of Rare Grade appeared and few other items also dropped. But no one even looked at it. They all stared at the guy who was responsible for killing the Lvl 10 boss, almost soloed it. A sweet voice sounded in all of their heads and asked them, "Would you like to register your name in Hall of Fame as you have killed the first Rare grade boss?"

They all waited for Qi for his answer. Qi looked at them with a smile. He looked like he was going to collapse at any time. He used all his stamina so that was normal. He took out a steamed bun and ate it and then replied, "Hell Yea!" All the party members smiled and told "Yes" to the system.

A server announcement sounded throughout the whole server.

[Server Announcement: The first Rare Grade boss, Angal, the Cruel Boss has been killed by Death Killer, Ani, Reinhard, Shuugo and Gadovi. These five players will be registered in the Hall of Fame. As rewards for the first kill of a rare grade boss, the system rewards them with 10000 Gold, 20 Attribute points, 1 Rare Grade Skill book and 5 Skill points. We hope that you all will be inspired by them and soon leave the Beginner Village and help the continent to become a better place.]

The Server Announcement 4 more times. The whole server was shocked to the core! How much time was it before it was announced that bosses and elite monsters has started spawning? Less than 5 minutes. How the f*** did they found a boss? Moreover it was a Lvl 10 Rare Grade boss! What madness was this? Killing a Lvl 10 boss in less than 5 minutes? And the highest level player did not crossed Lvl 4! Although the level rankings weren't released, players could get a general understanding. Lvl 4 players killed a Lvl 10 Rare grade boss? Truly wonderful as well as truly shocking.

Qi's party was too absorbed in happiness. They all looked at Qi like he was some kind of god. "Hey don't look at me like that idiots. I am just a friend of you all. Just wipe that expressions off your faces."

Shuugo spoke finally, "What the hell did you during the last strike? That damage number… Not anyone can do that damage at the current stage. It is just impossible! You hacking or something?"

"Hacking? Haha this game is unhackable." Qi replied with a chuckle.

Ani spoke with concern, "Hey guys, we were lucky enough to have Death here with us. Now that we got into Hall of Fame, we might either be destroyed or we might either become undestroyable. What do we do?"

"I got plans guys. I didn't wanted to involve you all in the mess but now that you are friends I will slowly tell you about my plans. And if you guys ever need any help, just call me." Qi meant it with his heart.

"It will be better if we stick together. Many large Professional clubs will try to rope us in and i don't want to get myself contracted with those bunch of losers." Gadovi expressed his concerns too.

"We are still in beginner village so no one will be able to PK us for now. Let us level up fast and get going. Till then we can disperse. I will take you guys with me to finish the other 2 E grade Quests."

"Wait what? E grade quests? We barely get F grade quests and you are getting E grade quests already?" Reinhard exclaimed.

"Magic of Charisma I suppose." Qi gave a simple explanation.

"F***, how many Gifts did you obtained?" asked Ani.

"We can talk later, first we need to get back to village. It's almost 9 in the evening and I have to see my mom or else she will be angry as hell. We can meet at 7 in morning tomorrow. What do you guys say?"

"Yea, gotta get down with family. Tomorrow in morning at 7 guys."

Everyone went back to village chatting along the way. There was no teleportation point so they had to walk back. Those who died spawned back at the village entrance. They all logged off.

After the announcement sounded, many professional clubs wanted to rope in all those guys. But all of them turned off their communication devices, so no one was able to contact them. It was understandable as so many people wanted to contact them.

But not all understood. The biggest pro gaming club named More Gaming Club, had a player who will become the guild leader in future. They wanted to be the first guild that is established. This was because of the fact that the earlier they make the guild, the more name they will earn. The future guild leader's name was Pro Player. He was an arrogant person and he had the power to back his arrogance. He wanted to rope in all those 5 people who killed that Rare grade boss and told his lackeys to find them and invite them over. He also told them to offer a salary of 5000 Jin a month.

But the lackeys returned back empty-handed as they couldn't find them. Pro Player was very angry at them. But he calmed down as he had some IQ that made him understand that they might not be online. So he ordered his lackeys to keep an eye for them. Then Pro Player logged off.
