Chapter 108: Creating New Spells to Achieve Victory!
-----
The Giant Black Scorpion King, a monster with intelligence rather advanced for its brethren due to its high Stage of Mana Core Cultivation, found himself in awe.
After having one of its legs broken down by Nezhit, the creature quickly kicked the annoying Undead Giant, as it directed its sting towards Frank, impaling him through his shoulder right into his stomach, and pouring a large quantity of venomous poison.
Only for Frank to disappear as if nothing, as if the creature it attacked was not there, to begin with…
Even though it saw how it shrieked in pain and even how it vomited blood!
But the blood disappeared as well as the entire body, and the Scorpion found his sting stuck into the floor of the dungeon, with the sharp point of the singer being broken.
The creature seemed truly shocked since it was born in the dungeon that the scorpion crawled and fought, devouring the mana cores of its enemies, even when it fought against the adventurers that explored the depths.
It was, after all, a Dungeon Boss, a special monster given a special authority within the dungeon, formed after years of fighting, surviving, and nurturing itself.
It could still recall that time when it was given a strange power, and also its own room.
Having fought against dozens of adventurer teams, which he always triumphed over, it now for the first time found itself confused.
How could it be possible for its enemy, the one it saw die in front of its eyes… simply disappear out of thin air?
Frank, however, had used his Light Clone Skill to create a clone in a specific time while evading the Scorpion attacks, while using Enshroud to cover itself in shadows and hide in the enormous shadow of the Scorpion.
And now that his clone was destroyed and Frank was found out to be hiding, he had to use this precious time where the creature had finally lowered its guard!
"Flames Arrows… Fire Soul Technique… Dark Death Devil Magic… Demon Fire…"
Frank put his strong mind into use, beginning to craft a spell straight away by using his wide range of mind-related skills alongside his Mana Control Skill until he finally comes out with a spell that fused such spells and skills.
Controlling the freezing flames of Demon Fire, while also giving it the control and intensity of Flame Arrows, and also the enhanced power of Fire Soul Technique.
He named such spell as Purgatory Flames.
Reciting the name of his new spell, Frank appeared out of the shadows, he was only able to camouflage in them as long as he didn\'t use any offensive skill, as Enshroud, the Skill he was using to cover himself in shadows would deactivate the moment he tried to attack an enemy.
His presence suddenly was noticed by the Boss Monster.
But it was late.
Flash!
Purple and blue colored flames appeared, as an arc of infernal flames that had surged right from the purgatory itself, flowing around Frank, as his body seemed completely immune to them.
"I am immune to these flames… Is it because they\'re related with Death Magic?" wondered Frank, glancing at the enormous monster with his flashing crimson eyes, he directed the flames towards the creature, as the arc of purgatory inferno expanded widely beneath the creature!
Flash!
The Boss Monster suddenly felt a strange change of temperature beneath its body, as it felt that its exoskeleton began to freeze.
"Grrrysshaa…!"
The cold temperatures continued as if something beneath was simply absorbing all of the heat in the environment!
"Purgatory Arrows!" said Frank, leaping away from the creature, evading its legs which tried to squash him like an ant, and using the enormous mass of flames covering his body, shaping them as arrows and firing dozens of them at the same time towards the scorpion!
Flash! Flash! Flash!
The creature raised its claws, protecting itself from the arrows with them, only to find its claws completely frozen beneath hard, purple-colored ice that slowly drained the creature\'s life!
"What?! You… Kid did you just created that spell?! Your talent is even more than I had expected… Those purple and blue flames are similar to Demon Fire, but you have given it a completely different twist, and they can even freeze a target, leaving purple-colored ice that drains the foe\'s life! Impressive! You\'re really deserving of the title of my successor!" said Hades, as Frank ignored the floating skull, moving near Nezhit, who had most of its torso broken part.
"Gift of Death!"
Frank quickly healed Nezhit from its wounds, telling him to remain near Ruby and Zhulong, who was currently running and flying around the scorpion while throwing magic and breath attacks. Due to the smaller size, they could take, the scorpion was having a hard time hitting them, as its accuracy lowered due to the lethargic feeling that it suffered due to the purple ice that drained its life.
"Grawr!"
Ruby jumped over the Scorpion\'s frozen claws, pointing her breath towards the monster\'s crimson eyes!
She gnashed her sharp teeth, resisting the ache of her body that the Cursed Evil Eye caused into her body, and firing a strong fire breath towards the eyes of the scorpion, trying them!
"Grrryshaaa…!"
The beast roared in pain and anger, as it tried to free its stinger that was still stuck into the ground.
"Roar!"
Zhulong joined in, flying around the air as it released a strong lightning attack into the creature\'s other eyes, frying them as well!
Zap!
"Grryyaarr…!"
"Good job!" said Frank, as he revealed his presence once again from within the shadows of the mildly illuminated room, surprising the scorpion!
"Gryar!"
The scorpion roared in anger, it could not see anymore, and so, its cursed evil eye could not be conjured anymore.
However, it still had strong hearing senses, which is used to sense Frank\'s position with a rather good precision!
Clash!
Directing its claws towards him, the creature sensed that it had destroyed something, trying to sense the warmth of blood, but only sensing that whatever it squashed, had already disappeared…
Another Light Clone!
The creature roared in anger, whatever trick this human had, it was already too frustrating for him!
"Oh, you\'re looking for me?" asked Frank with a teasing voice, appearing right at the side of the creature\'s tail.
"Grryy!!!"
"Mind if I help you with this?" asked Frank, as the muscles of his arms suddenly grew a few centimeters more, bulging, and his nails grew into black, metallic claws!
Shrouding his own claws in the purple and blue flames, Frank used an incredibly fast movement that could only be done after being enhanced with the many buff skills he had over his body alongside the superhuman capabilities of his transformation!
Slash!
Using his claws as blades, Frank sliced the Scorpion King\'s tail with a single swipe!
The purple and blue flames quickly went inside of the monster\'s wound, freezing its insides and absorbing its life.
Frank could not help but smile as he heard the cry of agony of the enormous scorpion.
"GRRRYAAR…!"
Seemingly having lost any sense of reason now, the scorpion used its remaining seven legs and his frozen claws to unleash a crazy barrage of attacks all around, trying to target anyone inside the room.
Its enormous body was so heavy that the creature only needed to use it to cause a small catastrophe!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Frank leaped out of the range of the attack, releasing spider threads and connecting them to the walls and ceiling, which he also used to bring Nezhit and Ruby above, as Zhulong was the only one that could fly.
"My lord, the creature has gone berserk!" said Nezhit with concern.
"Its health points had decreased a lot, it is not below half, we need to chip in a bit more… but attacking it in front won\'t work, its exoskeleton above its body is too hard, but the one beneath is rather weak in comparison… Nezhit, I hate to ask you this, but go and distract it, I will repair your body afterward, sorry for using you like this…" said Frank.
"There is nothing to apologize, my lord, my body is big, and I am an Undead, my job as a meat shield is unparalleled," said Nezhit proudly, he was content in any way he could serve his lord.
"Ruby, Zhulong, come with me!" said Frank, jumping after Nezhit did so, hitting the ground and leaping around the Scorpion.
Nezhit then breathed air as it roared like an enormous giant warrior.
"Come, you insect!" it roared.
"Grrr?!"
The Scorpion heard the roaring challenge of Nezhit, running directly towards the origin of the sound, opening its jaws wide open!
"Grrryaaaarrr!"
"Hmph!"
Nezhit leaped right before being devoured alive… or undead, and then directed its enormous fist towards the creature\'s fried eyes, causing a large amount of pain!
"GRRRYAA!"
The Scorpion reflectively used its frozen claws to attack, hitting Nezhit directly, and pushing him down into the ground!
BOOM!
"Nngghh…!"
Nezhit could not feel pain, but it could feel a slight discomfort in having his entire ribcage destroyed.
The Scorpion moved its jaws towards Nezhit who had its torso squashed, the saliva began to drop over his face as Nezhit was about to meet his end… again.
"My lord… Now!" said Nezhit.
"Thanks, Nezhit! I promise to be more prepared next time…!" said Frank, resurging from within the shadows of the scorpion alongside Ruby and Zhulong, who were covered in Frank\'s Enshroud.
The scorpion\'s jaws stopped right as it heard Frank from beneath itself once again! Even after having tried too hard to fend him off with its berserk tantrum, it had once again sneaked below its enormous body!
"Ruby, Zhulong, Ginseng… Soul Pact!" said Frank, as he is drawn into the power of his pets, as an Aura of Flames, an Aura of Thunder, and an Aura of Life combined with his Aura of Death, mixing together into a formless mass of power, which he covered into his own death magic and purgatory flames, shaping it as an enormous arrow!
Glancing at the wound he had previously caused to the beast with his previous attacks, Frank ran beneath the scorpion with Ruby and Zhulong on his shoulders, directing the arrow right into the wound, which showed the tender flesh inside of the exoskeleton!
The scorpion could not react in time, as it tried to use whatever remained of its tail as a whip, only to end up hitting itself due to Frank and his pets being below its own enormous body, which covered most of the tight room.
"Now!" roared Frank, the scorpion was helpless as a powerful and enormous arrow of blazing death flames hit the creature\'s wound deep inside!
Flash!
The creature felt a slight discomfort as it quickly vomited a green and oozing blood, and then, its abdomen began to bulge, as the flames filled its innards, frying everything inside with fire and thunder coated in death!
"Grrryaarrrr…!"
The scorpion despaired, as it saw its last moments, beaten by a ridiculous foe that challenged all the logic it had gathered through its long life!
Boom!
Like a balloon, the scorpion explored into hundreds of pieces of flesh and exoskeleton, leaving the enormous carcass and the broken apart abdomen covering most of the room…
Frank fell onto the floor directly with his pets, completely exhausted, as he also felt a rush of Experience Points overflowing his body.
[Your level has increased to 13!]
[Your level has increased to 14!]
"Two level-ups… Good enough, this Boss was ridiculous… Without everyone\'s help or distractions, I wouldn\'t have been capable of winning at all…" accepted Frank, standing up once again and moving towards Nezhit who was on the floor.
"My lord… Victory is ours!" he said, even though he had most of his torso detached.
"I told you to not talk so politely…" said Frank, releasing a wave of darkness that covered Nezhit\'s wounds, reattaching the other part of his torso back into the body, and healing back its HP to full.
"Very well then, Frank-sama…" said Nezhit.
"Sigh…"
Nezhit then stood up, checking its body.
"Ah! My armor, my lord… I am sorry…" he said, glancing at his dark armor, which was completely broken into pieces after withstanding the scorpion\'s attack.
"Don\'t worry about that, we just got an amazing armor material, don\'t you think? It would be a nice way to practice my Crafting Skill," said Frank, glancing at the pieces of the exoskeleton of the scorpion boss.
