BXBX NOVEL Chapter 611 Slaying The Mighty Beast!
-----
Despite still being a juvenile dragon smaller than even the Wyverns we fought back in the village, Ruby fearlessly decided to attack the Volcanic Grizzly Tyrant while it was trying to unfreeze its face from all the ice we left over it.
Ruby was so filled with the intent to help us fight this foe that he went above and beyond with his own biting attacks, even despite having a weak jaw as a juvenile dragon, it began to slowly pierce the bear\'s hard hide and muscles, making it begin to bleed intensively.
[The Tamed D- Rank Monster [Young Blood Dragon: Ruby] has fiercely attacked the [Volcanic Grizzly Tyrant] with all his might!]
[Due to his Draconic Powers blossoming in this life-or-death situation, the [Powerful Bite: Lv4] Skill has awakened into [Fierce Dragon Bite: Lv4]!]
"GRRRRHHHHH…!"
Ruby\'s face distorted as he tried biting with as much fury and strength as he could, his jaws suddenly grew sharper, piercing more and more into the bear\'s flesh and reaching its incredibly hard bone, incapable of piercing further than that.
Ruby looked me into the eyes, filled with his blazing dragon pride. Our connection between dragon and master was strong, and I could feel his intentions.
I guess you don\'t want to be a pushover no matter what, don\'t you?
Fine, let\'s not waste this opportunity then.
"Aim at the neck! This thing\'s not going to die any time soon unless we cut his head off!"
I had already figured out that it had an insane HP pool, it tanked too many powerful hits and even if we froze its entire body, it would simply free itself from the ice again. It was working, but not as fast as I would have wanted. A sure method to kill this behemoth was beheading it, and Ruby had already opened a wound for us.
"Alright!" Saphira said with excitement. "[Spectral Body]!"
FLUOSH!
Her entire body suddenly took the form of a giant spear, and then she materialized it with the power of the Freezing Bombs and the Synthesis she gained thanks to inheriting the Alchemy Skill from our Spirit Link, turning into a gigantic ghostly ice spear!
FLAAAASH!
Saphira didn\'t even waited for us to attack, as she flew towards the giant bear\'s neck and pierced through its flesh and skin thanks to the wounds left by Ruby, beginning to slowly pierce through the hard neck bone, but even that wasn\'t enough.
"What an amazing form, Saphira! I suppose I cannot just stay here." Hendrick laughed, as thousands of poison threads emerged one after the other, combined with the bear\'s blood, they tightly wrapped around its neck where Ruby wasn\'t biting (to obviously not get hurt), and wrapped as tightly and strong as possible.
Meanwhile, I leaped forward with the aid of Fenrir, rushing over the monstrous C Rank Monster and shooting as many bullets as I could before hitting it with my spear!
BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!
The ice kept spreading and weakening the bear while it rampaged around, hitting the ground furiously and leaving a trail of flames everywhere.
"[Blizzard Spear]!"
I combined the power of the Freezing Aura with the Lightning Spear Technique, generating an enormous impact that quickly started piercing the bear\'s neck bone, shattering it apart and then finally piercing through!
CRAAAAAASH!
"GRAAAAAKKKHHH…!"
BAAAAM!
The beast gave a last roar of agony before dying on the spot, falling over the ground without being able to move any longer. The Grimoire immediately began glowing brightly, although I was a bit too busy to check it right away. Yeah the boss might be over, but there were still around fifty more Fiery Grizzlies we had to eliminate.
"Well done everyone, but let\'s not sit around idly yet!" I commanded everyone into joining the rest of the class. Without stopping we kept killing bears until we lost count of how many we have slain.
Ding!
[You and your Party have slain [Volcanic Grizzly Tyrant (C Rank)] x1!]
[You and your Party have slain [Fiery Grizzlies (D+ Rank)] x127!]
[LEVEL UP!]
[LEVEL UP!]
[LEVEL UP!]
[LEVEL UP!]
[Your Level has increased from Level 43 to Level 47!]
[All your stats have increased!]
[You earned bonus skill points and stat points!]
[You earned bonus skill proficiency!]
[Some of your Skills have leveled up!]
"And done… three more levels and I am all set, finally." I sighed in relief. "I can finally have a three-star talent like a bunch of these kids."
"Huh? are you about to hit max level already?!" Eric was surprised.
We were current cooking Fiery Grizzly Stew to regain stamina, mana, energy, and Ki before departing and slaying the two Demon Tribes left.
"Yeah, only three more levels as I said. Although the EXP needed has multiplied a lot… I need 1250000 EXP for Level 48, for example." I explained.
"What…?!" Eric felt shocked. "That\'s quite unfair…"
"I am used to it at this point." I sighed.
I glanced around the camp we made in the middle of the Cactus Forest, everyone was patching themselves up. Some were resting inside their tents, a few were relaxing while talking, but everyone seemed alright, aside from a few that ended a bit too hurt, which are now taking a break inside the tents.
"S-So the only thing left is t-the demon tribes, right?" Alberta wondered. "I-I remember when we fought those d-demons in the dungeon… We haven\'t fought an y-yet…"
"Are you nervous?" Wondered Eric.
"A-A bit…" Alberta sighed.
"Don\'t worry, we are experts at Demon Slaying." Eric said proudly. "We\'ve been slaying them since I was like five! Hahah!"
"E-Eh?! T-That young?!" Alberta was shocked.
"It could be said our childhood was… Well, rough." I shrugged. "Hmm, I think the stew is almost ready. Call everyone to bring their plates, Alberta."
"O-Okay!" Alberta nodded, quickly doing as I asked her.
"Blake are you feeling alright? You\'ve been fighting the most lately." Eric seemed worried.
"Don\'t worry, a day in the battlefield is like any other for me." I smiled back at my friend.
"Huh? O-Okay…" Eric raised an eyebrow. "You sometimes sound like an old war veteran…"
"Haha, never mind that." I sighed. "Let\'s eat and then let\'s discuss, something important has showed up that I want to talk with everyone."
