684 Confronting The Floor 2 Boss!
—–
As I glanced over the battlefield and how my friends were enjoying the new Buff Cards, I quickly decided to boost myself using the Claw Buff Card I acquired first, just to test it out…
FLASH!
As the card dissipated into particles of light, my entire body received the “essence” of the familiar, enhancing my stats through the roof.
Ding!
[You have absorbed the [Buff Card: Living Demonic Claws (D++ Rank)]! Your HP and STR have increased by +2000, and you can now use the [Life Draining Attack] and [Rotting Wounds] Skills for 10 minutes.]
With two thousand more health points and strength, the difference felt quite clear. I immediately decided to test it out as I leaped forward, accompanied by Ruby flying above me and my three Vampire Spirits, Eleanora, Saphira, and Fang.
“Eleanora, cover my back. Saphira, turn into Undead any insect that has died to aid us. Fang, make sure to protect Ruby.” I commanded.
“Very well.” All three of them nodded.
“KRIEEEEEHHH!” One of the giant Wasps ended ignoring the army of Familiars and flew straight towards us, pointing its utterly massive stinger against my body.
FLAAASH!
Eleanora leaped into the air and landed right over the Giant Wasp, using her powers, magic, and her demonic spear to pierce the giant monster’s head, pushing the beast down into the floor.
BAAAAAMMM…!
“KRIEEEGHH! SHIEEEH!” The Wasp furiously attacked Eleanora with its sharp mandibles, its exoskeleton having barely been pierced by the spear.
“These bugs are quite formidable foes.” I smiled. “But nothing invincible, right?”
“Oh yes.” Eleanora giggled, as the Wasp suddenly felt much weaker, its wound was beginning to rapidly rot. This was because Eleanora, much like me, had also been enhanced with a Claw Buff Card.
“K-KRIEEEHHH!!!” The wasp didn’t gave up, attempting to attack me with its mandibles.
However.
“Begone.”
SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!
I swung my spear several times at once, generating hundreds of afterimages. Each afterimage pierced the wasp’s entire body several times, large holes covering the monster, until it dropped dead.
BAAAM…!
“And done…”
“ROOOAARR!”
In the distance, I saw Ruby fiercely fighting a giant scorpion, while Fang offered him his support. Ruby had to continue growing stronger if he wanted to become a real, and powerful being in the future.
“Even with Lily’s buff extension, we won’t have much time so, let’s quickly hurry up.” I smiled, as Eleanora and I jumped into action.
We rushed across the battlefield with the rest of our party, slashing apart giant bugs while supporting my familiars. Several of them were constantly dying, but they were loses I could take. As long as the Familiars fulfilled their purpose, it was fine, I can always summon more later anyways.
When Eleanora and I joined hands and fought together, we become unstoppable, whenever there was a bug I couldn’t reach, she would crush it and push it down so I could finish it off.
And whenever she was being cornered, I would weaken the bugs using my magic and help her defeat them. Our combined, fast movements, our similar techniques, and our equal taste for bloodshed made us an extremely efficient pair.
And once we’ve already mowed down over 80% of the bug army, the Boss stepped forward, incapable of believing her children were slaughtered so easily.
“GRYSHAAAAHHH!!!” The ferocious Wasp Queen flew towards our direction, moving her gigantic wings. Many of my Familiars attacked her, even Fenrir, but their blows didn’t even pierce through her exoskeleton.
“SHAAAAAH!” With a swing of her gigantic claws, she hit Fenrir down and made him fall into the floor, his body barely resisting with a few health points, which were swiftly restored by Elizabeth.
BAAAAMMM…!
“Ungh… That giant bug’s bad news, boss!” Fenrir barked.
“Don’t worry about her.” I smiled. “Fenrir, simply lead your army to take down the small fry. We’ll take care of this one by ourselves.”
“V-Very well!” Fenrir nodded, rushing to do his duty.
“SHIEEEEHHH!!!” The Wasp Queen flew towards us at a tremendous speed, her gigantic red eyes glaring furiously at us, as her giant stinger moved rapidly, unleashing a barrage of piercing blows as if it were a rapidly-moving spear.
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLAAASH!
I intercepted the blows using my spear, while I combined my Demonic Energy with my Vampiric Energy, Blood Ki, Demonic Flames Authority, and then the power of the Gluttony Authority.
“You’re too foolish if you think you can just fight me head-on!” I laughed, dark red flames surged all across my body, shapeshifting into ferocious jaws and eyes.
“[Vampiric Demonic Gluttonous Flames]!”
FLUOOOOOSH!
The flames covered the giant Wasp Queen’s entire body, burning her slowly and devouring her Vitality and Mana at the same time.
“KRIEEEEEHHH…!”
She couldn’t fly anymore as her wings burned down, and immediately fell into the floor with a loud bang.
BAAAAAMMMM…!
“GGRIEEEEGGGH…!”
However, even without being able to fly, she was still brave and ferocious. Against Eleanora and I, she unleashed a barrage of claw attacks and biting blows and even while burning to death, her movement speed was impressive.
“Your fate has already been sealed.” Eleanora laughed, summoning her own Blood Crimson Flames, and shaping them as spinning shadow shuriken, a storm of shuriken engulfed the giant bug. “[Blood Flare Infernal Shuriken Storm]!”
“GRYYYYEEEEHHHH…!”
ραndαsΝοvεl ƈοm
FLUOOOOOSH!
A loud, all-consuming explosion of blood flames covered the giant bug, weakening it even further. The spinning shuriken, made of shadows and flames, constantly pierced, and shattered the bug’s exoskeleton, opening the way for us to pierce through those wounds and rot them away even further.
Our spears danced together as we made a perfect pair. Blood and darkness surrounding ourselves as we devastated our foolish enemy. These moments were truly delightful, as they made me remember the memories of this previous life, of the many times I enjoyed destroying my foes with Eleanora at my side, my loyal, believe Eleanora.
My powers and hers became one, as for a split of a second, she fused with my body, our spears became one, and they unleashed an ultimate barrage of blows. The combined auras turning into a ferocious, Blood Dragon.
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLAAASH!
“ROOOOOAAARRRRR!”
BOOOOOOOMMMMM…!
As the Blood Dragon engulfed the Wasp Queen into an explosion, the gigantic bug gave its last scream of agony before completely dying…
