Chereads / Death Loves my Hero / Chapter 8 - Chapter 8: Reward!

Chapter 8 - Chapter 8: Reward!

The spots of light on his body increased, but the path to hit those marks decreased, right now his health is near critical, but for it to take down a lot of players mean it was at the level of a final boss, something weird is happening in this game, first the appearance of Hellhounds, then this!

[Die, you rat!]

It charged right at me and I avoided the attack jumping to the right as I sprinted around the room looking for the gaps and cracks in its armor, his gaze followed me, as I darted across the room.

Then I charged straight at it, but the Kobold Captain reacted faster than I expected as it turned around blocking my attack, I quickly disengaged with it before it could just overpower me, but as I took a few steps back, it quickly took advantage of it and charged at me wildly swinging its giant sword at me.

I felt the wall behind me as the kobold captain reeled in his blade before thrusting it, I quickly got to the side letting its giant sword plunge through the wall.

[Raagh!]

But with sheer strength, it dragged the sword along the wall trying to hit me, but I went behind the Kobold Captain and stabbed it on the marks of light on its body, one in its shoulder blade, and with my other sword I slashed the marks both behind its knees making the Kobold Captain fall on its knees.

[You deal critical damage!]

[You deal 98 damage!]

[You deal critical damage!]

[You deal 98 damage!]

[You deal critical damage!]

[You deal 98 damage!]

[The Kobold Captain, Draikl has his movement slowed by 40%!]

[The Kobold Captain, Draikl's health is at critical levels!]

[Raagh! Damn, coward!!]

[The Kobold Captain, Draikl has entered a frenzied state!]

He roared out into the air and all the bodies were blasted off just by the sheer pressure of his power a boss in a frenzied state improves their stats by a lot, for now getting hit by it will surely kill me in one shot, but I've put a -40% debuff on his speed.

"Haha, coward yes, that's true, but being brave is also just another word for a fool!"

The fight as expected is easier now, I knew that no players in the beginning region can defeat this monster, a named boss is equivalent to the final boss of the dungeon, some time's even stronger. I took advantage of this weakness and charged right back hitting his left shoulder, slicing his right wrist, and stabbing his lung.

[You deal critical damage!]

[You deal 98 damage!]

[You deal critical damage!]

[You deal 98 damage!]

[You deal critical damage!]

[You deal 98 damage!]

[Kobold Captain, Drakl has his attack power lowered by 50%!]

[Kobold Captain, Drakl's health will lower overtime!]

Drakl didn't mind his injuries and pulled out his giant great sword from the wall lunging straight at me without any fear, he swung his sword wildly again, but the current that the sword picked up is doing some damage as the wind became sharp blades.

[You receive 23 damage!]

[You receive 23 damage!]

[You receive 23 damage!]

[You receive 23 damage!]

Just the winds themselves deal this much damage despite his damage being lowered by half, this boss is absurd! I tried creating a bigger gap between us as I can't just keep narrowly dodging these attacks lest I'll die before he does.

[Kreek, you can't run from me!!]

He held the giant sword in two hands and drew an arc in the air launching making a blade made of wind, I ducked down and looked behind me a bit, the wall was scarred with this wind blade, a deep cut, I looked back and saw Drakl already almost near me, as I jumped back going around the entire cave, looking for a way to kill it faster rather than letting it bleed to death as it would take horrendously long.

I stopped my running and turned back to focus on Drakl.

[I thought you were not a fool!]

"So did I."

I charged straight into this frenzied boss, his stats higher than mine, the winds he emit with a swing of his blade are lethal, and the blade itself can kill me in one shot, but I could see it, a way to end this bastard!

"Here I come!"

[Finally! No more running, no more chasing, I'll kill you, you damned human!]

He swung his sword horizontally drawing an arc while I kneeled down as I slid across the blood floor, but I could feel something rip, the skin and flesh of my face were ripped clean off.

[You were dealt a critical strike!]

[You receive 58 damage!]

In one swift motion, as I slid under between his legs, I cut both of his legs clean off.

[You deal critical damage!]

[You deal 98 damage!]

[You deal critical damage!]

[You deal 98 damage!]

Then I stood up behind him and stabbed him in the back through his heart with one sword and with the other I cut his throat.

[You hit a vital organ!]

[You deal additional Critical Damage!]

[You deal critical damage!]

[You deal 197 damage!]

[You deal critical damage!]

[You hit a vital organ!]

[You deal additional Critical Damage!]
