What a tough luck I have, besides the debuffs and the lack of stamina I have right now, I cannot stop running too since the learning time for the passive is not yet done so if I stopped running, I will have to begin right back at the very beginning to learn it. And since this Area boss also decided to appear here, it means that I am in a very f*cked up situation.
The Poison Spider Queen is a humanoid boss with the body of a woman in her head up to her waist, though the rest below is a spider's body part. She randomly spawns in the Forest of Laxusio and mainly preys on Giant Sloths which is her primary main source of food. Other than that, she also preys on humans. Using her very beautiful face and body, she will lure her victim to help her on her from her troubles. People who are not aware of this will be killed and eaten by her.
She is big but that doesn't mean she is slow. She is a very fast hunter and if you don't know what you are doing against her, she will be devouring you without fail. Aside from her fast movements, she is also a deadly hunter. Her poison is quite lethal that it will reduce 100 HP per second and has once inflicted, healing effects would degrade to 50% so when someone healed you while the poison is in your body, you will only benefit the half amount of the healing.
Now the real problem comes in. Since I already noticed the Poison Spider Queen too late, I am already on her radar and escaping will only result on of the boss chasing me. There is only one way since escape is impossible in my state and that is to fight while running constantly. It's not that bad but since I can enlist the help of Leona and Atlas out, it will be real easy but it will be a pain since the Poison Spider Queen will always and ALWAYS going to lock into her target and she will not stop until the target is dead. Because I am the first one to appear on her vision, I am already a locked on target.
"Leona! Atlas! Help me out here!"
Summoning the two, they came out as one and immediately charge forward towards the Poison Spider Queen. On the other hand, since I am in too much danger if I go near, I have to play the range and support role this time around to make sure Leona and Atlas will be able to survive the battle.
The Poison Spider Queen awakens and she she started screaming.
[Poison Spider Queen released a shrill cry, reducing defense for 2 minutes.]
[Poison Spider Queen dealt 1,000 damage]
Shrill Cry is the first and only skill the Poison Spider Queen will use once she was provoked. It usually just deal reduced defense for 2 minutes but due to my nonexistent defense, I received a damage.
Leona and Atlas attacked with consistency, running and attacking to avoid the lashes of the monster. Aside from that, one of the titles that I noticed to have taken effect constantly is the title, [The One Who Does Not Need Companions] since everytime the two attacked, an additional 100 damage is added. Surprisingly enough, the damage of Leona and Atlas is quite alright when dealing with the boss but it is to be expected. They can reach 5k damage but that's it, and it won't further increase to that. This boss will always have the strongest defense whenever she is in her web's vicinity, allowing her to be too thick to defeat. But I already have those covered. If they keep on attacking, the boss will be down in no time.
However, I am running out of time so I will have to deal with the boss the faster way. The two will keep the boss busy and despite the locked on trigger of the boss unto me, that doesn't mean she will keep her attacks at me especially if the two will also harass you. The moment she focuses on the two, I have a momentary chance to burn the web.
"[Fireball!]"
FWOOSH!
[Poison Spider Queen's web is damaged. Reduces the defense of the Poison Spider Queen to 80%]
The moment that message, the Poison Spider Queen redirect its attention to its web and immediately run back to it to start the repair.
"Leona! Atlas! Don't let her apporach her web!"
"Yes Master!"
"SQUAAAAAAA!"
As soon as the boss started to run, Atlas raised his sword and Leona released a sharp cry. The ground shook and a huge dome of darkness appeared, swallowing the boss whole. I immediately identified the skill and it was the racial skill, Under the Dome.
The moment the boss was covered in the dome, she also meet her doom.

-Got 1,500,000 EXP(Title Effects activated! 1,500,000 exp received)
-Got 10 Druid SP(a/n: this is added since Leona is a pet and Druids benefit from using pets in fights).
I no longer leveled up even with that amount of EXP received. In my current level, level 80, reaching level 90 will take me a while and from my estimation, I will hit level 90 once I reach Sandurk. The penalties in Versatile class is now starting to become more obvious. But I have no time to worry about that and since I still have to get to the venue, I continue my meticulous running routine without knowing that one of the loot I got from the boss has started moving inside my inventory.
