Chapter 41 - Boss Fight!

We dashed towards the werewolf with Rai at the front. Rai jumped and swung his hammer to get the attention of the werewolf.

When the werewolf saw the attack, it crossed it's arms and successfully blocked the attack. The werewolf was not hurt but was moved by meter.

Nixie then moved closer to Rai to support him while Rory and my shadow clones moved at the werewolf's back.

Rory then used his swords to slash at the werewolf. His swords was enveloped with blue flames causing the werewolf to shout loudly.

My shadow clones followed it with a slash that was imbued with poison. I then created a spear and imbued it with poison at the tip. l thrown it at the back of the werewolf that further damaged it.

The werewolf was about to move but I made sure to make an ice chain to restrict it. The werewolf howled and destroyed the chains but that was all the time Rai needed to smash his hammer again.

The werewolf was not prepared for the attack so he received the attack with full force causing it to stumble by 4 meters.

We then followed the werewolf to not lose our momentum.

Rory was the first to arrive close to the werewolf, he then made a combo of slashes. He was like dancing when attacking the werewolf.

Rory then moved back when he was out of breath but my shadow clones and me soon followed it with a combo of our attack as well. We punched it with our gauntlets that was covered with poison.

The werewolf continued howling in pain. Me and my shadow clones then moved back when I saw that Rai was ready to attack again.

Rai was about to hit the werewolf when suddenly the werewolf's body turned completely blue and it's claws was then covered with ice that looks like dragon claws.

When Rai was about to hit the werewolf, the werewolf slashed at him causing him to be flown to the wall. Rai laid at the wall with a big wound that has a claw mark.

The werewolf then looked at Rory and me, it then run towards Rory. It was faster compared to before which made Rory unable to dodge it's attack. He was also flown towards a wall but was lucky enough to cover his body with his swords. Blood was coming out from Rory's mouth while his hands was shaking holding his swords.

"Shit!" I involuntary said.

The werewolf heard it and looked towards me. It then dashed towards me. I can still somehow see his attack but unable to dodge it. Seeing it's hand coming down on me, I made one of my shadow clones block it.

The shadow clone died leaving me with only one shadow clone. The werewolf saw that I was still standing so it made another attack but was still blocked by my other shadow clone. My last shadow clone died but that gave me time to put a distance between us.

"Rory and Rai, please give me time while I think of an attack to kill the werewolf!" I shouted.

Rory and Rai was already healed with the help of Nixie. They both nodded and then dashed towards the werewolf.

I needed to think of a powerful attack that will help me finish the werewolf. I can't see a thing from this place that will help me. I can only see ice. But what can ice possibly do!?

Wait!

Ice!

I can use my Ice Manipulation skill to melt all the ice here! I didn't think that this environment can actually help me!

"Nixie come here!" I called Nixie and soon she was on my side.

I explained to her my plan and we both started to melt the ice around us starting with the floor.

The room was full of water after a couple of minutes but I can see that the room was still full of ice.

"The water is enough, Nixie." I said since the room was full of water that reaches until our chest.

I then looked at Rory and Rai, and I can see that they were both full of wounds.

"Rory and Rai, get back and let me and Nixie handle the rest!" I shouted and then started to use the water to attack the werewolf.

Rory and Rai run towards us while the werewolf tried to follow them but was restrained by the water.

Nixie was restraining the werewolf by making water tentacles. The werewolf easily destroyed it but was then replaced by another one.

I then made the water to envelope the werewolf's head to make it unable to breathe.

The werewolf was trying to remove the water on it's head but was restrained by the water tentacles. I then made sharp water needles to penetrate it. I can't use ice attacks because it has Frost Body. Ice attacks will only heal the werewolf so I can only rely on my poison and Water magic for attacks.

The werewolf's body was full of holes once I'm done attacking. I continued my attack until the werewolf stopped moving.

I was then bombarded by a tones of notifications when I leveled up. Since I'm already level 110, my Ring of Khione took effect and upgraded all my Ice related skills. I then checked my Ring of Khione to check if there are any changes.

There was still no changes in the ring making me wonder why. I don't know why it didn't change but I was still contented with what I have right now.

Since my skills leveled up, Rory and Rai will surely also have upgrades on there skills.

I then moved towards the werewolf's corpse to use my Consume skill on it.

Ding!

You gain 1800 EXP.

When the werewolf's corpse was gone, the ground shook and a gate emerged from the ground.

The ground stop shaking when the gate was fully submerged. Afterwards, all the water around us is being sucked by the gate until all of the water was gone.

This gate must be the way for the next floor but I didn't plan to enter it immediately.

My shadow clones died so I can only wait for a day to be able to use them again. My clones are a big help this time because without them I might have been severely injured.

"Let's rest for now and continue after sometime." I said to them while creating an ice bed.

Everyone nodded and rested. Rory went to a corner and sat down while looking at his swords. Rai laid at the floor while using his hammer as a pillow.

Nixie went to my direction and laid at my head. After a couple of minutes, I can hear her sleeping. I followed her and also went to sleep.

I don't know how long I slept but when I woke up, I felt refreshed and energized. I tried using my Shadow skill but was unable to still summon shadow clones.

Since I still can't summon them, I plan to go inside the gate to kill some mobs but not the boss. I feel like the next boss will be more stronger than the recent boss we faced.

I then stood up but didn't felt Nixie on my head. She must be awake already. I stretched and then looked around.

I can see Rory and Rai having a spar while Nixie was watching them. I went towards them and they stopped when they saw me.

"Did everyone had a good rest?" I asked them.

"Yes master Ave!" Rory said and then gave me a bow.

"Yes, good morning Ave." Nixie said while floating around me and then sat at my head.

Rai only nodded.

"Good, we'll be going to the next floor and try to kill some monsters for us to level up. We won't be confronting the boss yet since it should be hard." I said to them.

They all nodded and followed me to get inside the gate. The gate was closed so I touched it and then the system gave me a notification.

Ding!

Proceed to the next floor?

Yes / No

I picked yes and then the gate glowed up. The gate opened, and we then entered one by one.
