Ch.7 "Is this it?"
[Entering Succeeded]
We entered the room.
I'm still unsure about this.
"WHAT THE HECK IS THAT?!?""
Reme shouted in a shocked tone.
*system pops up*
[ Boss dungeon:
Kaijin Nijūichi Mensō
"The monster with 21 faces." ]
My eye widened; fear, anxiety, is spreading through out
my body. And my hands are trembling, my heartbeat
is getting louder to the point I can't even hear my own
thoughts.
This is not normal.
I thought.
The boss was huge, and its body was covered in faces.
I think these are the faces of the warriors that it have been killed.
I was still trembling, and the magic aura it releases is highly
absurd. I can't even recognize its full appearance as
is covered with so many faces. But I'm sure that we will not.
be able to survive this.
"Guys, prepare yourself. We might not be able
to kill this guy. But we already had the key.
We can escape using this at least."
Alfdies said
"Same plan."
Alfdies added
"O-okay"
I replied
I was still trembling, but I had no choice.
but to help them.
"Stay at my back, North."
Dramire said.
I stepped back and positioned myself.
at the back of Dramire.
I know I can count on Dramire.
I watched Reme rush to the boss.
while his enhanced senses were on.
Alfdies finds a position where she can
shoot freely.
"In heaven's grace [light retribution]
Flee!"
I chanted.
Even though I buffed them, they seem
struggling.
[Reme's PoV]
"Fuck, fuck!"
Why are my attacks not working?
Shit! I need to think fast.
I have already activated all my skills.
except for my last one.
It costs a lot of mana, but I must
use it.
"Scarlet Slash!"
It worked!
IT WORKED!
I need to step back.
"ALFDIES! NOW!"
[Main PoV]
Reme's attack finally worked!
Now Alfdies can finish it!
"ALFDIES, YOU CAN DO IT!"
I shouted in support of her.
[Alfdies's PoV]
It's weakened now; I can kill it!
I gathered everything I had for this skill.
to be successfully cast.
I closed my eyes.
"[Verdant Quenya] Strike!"
[Main PoV]
The big arrow that came from
Alfie hits the boss.
*Boss growls*
My eye widened as the boss growled so loud that
The room itself started to crumble.
My body is not moving, and I badly want to get out of this
place, but my body won't let me.
I need to run. No, we need to run.
"EVERYBODY RUN!"
Dramire shouted
I forced myself to run.
The four of us ran as fast as we
can. We got out of the room's gate.
before it crumbled. The rooms are starting
to crumble too. I'm afraid that we might
not be able to get out.
We ran to the exit gate.
"NORTH! LOOK UP!"
Reme said
I raised my head to look, but I failed to notice that the boulder was falling over my head.
Dramire hurried to help me but arrived too late.
I was already struck by the large rock,
I can't move; I'm stuck!
I thought
"NORTH!"
Reme shouted.
"RUN!"
I answered
"We need to go, sorry, North. We'll be back.
if we can!"
Alfdies said
I saw them run off and left me.
I have no choice but to stay.
"C-come back! p-lease..."
My vision is starting to black out,
My body felt heavy.
This is it. This is finally it.
I said to myself.
I felt dizzy, and then I finally fainted.
