Vol. 4 - Chapter 229 - 2nd field boss! & huh! Did she liberate her trump card!?



We're on the 20th floor right now, the floor where the second boss of Dinosaur's Hill Dungeon is.

Just like Jurra Saugus, the boss that appears here is the defending type, guarding the entrance to the 21st floor. It doesn't move away from there. So we have enough leeway to prepare ourselves before challenging it.

"The 2nd boss is also safeguarding the entrance, right? Another type of field you talked about earlier, err.. wandering boss was it? What about them?"

"Good question, Lana."

Lana asked a sharp question just when I was about to explain the particularities of this floor boss as we were making our way to the boss in the shortest possible distance.

"They really do come out, including this dungeon. It's just that their range is limited from the 21st to the 29th floor."

Wandering bosses are different from regular field bosses; defeating them doesn't mean one can use the teleportation circle.

If I have to make a comparison, they are like the obstacles who are in charge of blocking challengers from reaching the innermost easily.

In the Dinosaur's Hill dungeon case, it comes to attack when the challenger's guard is down, i.e. when challengers think they're soon going to confront the last boss after defeating the first two bosses and entering the final layer.

It's a bit annoying, and attacks like this happen quite frequently in the game. There haven't been just a few times where my party was wiped out again and again when I also played it as a game. Caution has to be exercised in reality.

"To return to the subject, I was going to tell you about the second boss."

As I finished explaining about the wandering bosses and realised we were getting close to where the boss was, I started explaining about the defending boss.

The next boss is the boss version of the bipedal monster Torutoru we faced on the way, Jurra Torutoru. Not only does this boss have quick steps and sharp claws attack, it also leaps at challengers from a long distance, tramples and bashes attacks. But the dangerous point to be noted about this boss is its Step, which hasn't appeared in any boss so far.

"Step? Like dance steps?"

"No, No, they are called battle steps if anything. The steps make it harder to attack the bosses because of the unpredictability of steps. Hmm, I guess you will not understand just from oral explanation. That's right, I should just show you by performing."

I stop in the middle of the conversation and take a sidestep or backstep randomly, mimicking the movement I remembered.

"Something like this"

"I see. Certainly, it's not something any boss has used until now."

Sierra, with a pensive look on her face, looked at me performing steps. I guess it's because it will become harder to hit the boss with the randomness of steps.

It's necessary to become aware of the fact that their opponent can act and attack them anytime.

After pointing out a few more details, we finally saw it.

It was a huge body that didn't match the Toru in the slightest bit. I think it should be around 3 metres in size.

The abnormal size that's clearly different from the small fry we have encountered on the way and then, this aura of intimidation.

If it had been a game, the boss BGM should have begun to play by now.

Jurra Torutoru's attention shifts to us when Sierra takes the lead and moves ahead first.

"Kree!"

"I'm starting, <Aura Point>!"

The battle begins together with Sierra's taunting skill.

Jurra Torutoru rushed towards the Sierra in a straight line, and leaped forward slightly after.

This is Dinosaur's Kick, a jumping attack skill. It also comes with a knockdown effect due to the approach run. A direct hit will leave the opponent in a down state for a good while.

Of course, I have already taught Sierra about its attack pattern, so she should have enough leeway to deal with that.

Jurra Torutoru doesn't have enough methods to deal with Sierra from the front.

The only question is how Sierra will respond to this. Will she receive the head-on, parry it, or avoid it again?

However, I couldn't be any wrong as Sierra's choice was一

"Counter burst!"

A reflect type skill.

It's hard to master this skill because of the need for precise timing, but as long as one manages to pull it out, not only can it deal high damage to the enemy, but it even comes with a knockback effect.

I'm surprised she decided to use it against a never before seen opponent. What's more一

"Kreeee!?"

一She pulled it off splendidly.

Certainly, it's easy to predict the jumping attack, but to pull it off against a first-time opponent isn't something anyone can achieve. She is as amazing as ever.

Jurra Torutoru, who received the counter attack, was knocked back and went into a down effect. Of course, I'm not going to let this chance slip away.

I had long expected this outcome the moment Sierra chose "Counter Burst" and was ready to attack at any moment.

"Swift Strike! Brave Slash!"

"Kreeee!!"

Jurra Torutoru was further knocked back with a combination of my powerful unique skill and the special effect of Dinosaur slayer sword.

Great chance!

"Go full power! Lightning Slash! <Dinosaur Slayer>!"

"<Shining sabre of the sacred light>! <Rise of the sacred tree>! <Light Blade>! <Divine Pillar>! "

"My items will not fall behind. Take this!"

In addition to my special attacks, Lana's overpowered magic and Hannah's item attacks resonate with each other and deal even higher damage.

And for Ester, she…

"This seems to be the finale for today. Let's use it. <Princess Knight Awakening>!"

She liberated her trump card.

I mean, we indeed had the plan to end our exploration after dealing with the current boss, but… is she really going to use it? Ah, she activated it. Ugh, she did.

Jurra Torutoru, what a pitiful character to be treated like a small fry.

It didn't even get the chance to showcase its brilliance before it was put into a stunned state at the beginning of the battle. And now it was one-sidedly butchered until its HP reached 0 under the restless assault of Ester in her mighty form, using up all the saved MP.

Ehh, it's over already!? My eyes widened to the limit in surprise and as if to reply to my question, the boss sank in a sea of special effects and disappeared.

Ester, ah, You're going to be preached by Lana again, absolutely.
