"A B-rank soul, huh…" Lein muttered, examining the lava golem's stats displayed before him.
Its towering figure and molten body made it look like a giant from the depths of hell. Yet, to Lein, it was nothing more than a practice dummy. He was confident he could take it down in seconds.
"This thing has 30,000 more soul energy than the Hard-Shelled Turtle I fought earlier... And 3,000 defense? How tough could that be?" Lein mused, comparing the lava golem to the previous turtle. It was like night and day.
"Well, it is a B-rank golem," he said lightly, feeling no sense of threat.
Far off, the lava golem had already detected Lein's presence. The massive creature began to move, its steps heavy but deliberate, advancing through the bubbling lava pool toward him.
Argh... arhh…
The golem raised its massive right hand, clutching a blazing fireball that spun wildly. With slow but powerful movements, it hurled the fireball straight at Lein.
