As the voice in Lara's head stops she throws her now broken shield on the floor and as it lands a sharp clang sound can be heard as it shatters into tiny fragments. Instantly a green and red light surrounds and covers the demon as a huge fire tornado forms around the demon. within an instant howls of pain could be heard from the demon as its flesh was being torn apart by the intense wind elements and its body being purified by the holy elements within the fire. Lara stands there unable to move as she struggles to keep the fire tornado going. eventually stopping as the screams from the demon can no longer be heard.
As the fire dissipates the demon's body lays there in a pool a dark red blood and chunks of flesh.
"Ding… North Demon Guardian defeated. BOON received. Randomising BOON please wait."
"Ding... BOON Randomised. All fire blessings have increased by 1 power level and 1 giant fire phoenix feather"
Giant fire phoenix feather
Description: The holder can be raised from the dead once. Upon use the feather turns to dust.
Lara looks at this giant bright red feather now in front of her. Shocked she puts it away. In an exhausted slump she collapses, deciding to take a rest she layer down and just focused on her breathing.
After a few hours she fell asleep.
________________________________________
Waking up she felt rested and most of her stamina was recovered. After looking around she spots a staircase to take her to the second level of the dungeon. After climbing hundreds of stairs she found a way into a even darker scarier warmer hell scape. Looking around she was surrounded by fire and pools of what looked to be blood. In the air above flew many flying demons with stats similar to the demon guardian on the first floor. Feeling happier she leaves the dungeon using one of her many warp stones.
She spends a few days just relaxing in the nearby town, about a week later she wakes up to a sound in her head.
"Ding… Attention all fighters in the dungeon, you all have survived the perilous journey of the dungeons all those who have made it to a second level of a dungeon will receive a BOON" Lara hearing this is over the moon with joy, "I will finally get rewarded for my efforts"
"Ding… You have received a BOON from the dungeons. You found The Dark Hell which is level 2 dungeon floor. Your BOON is +2 levels and you gained the Hell fire sword blessing"
Hell Fire Sword
Power level 1
Class: element (fire)
Description: the user can summon a sword made of hell fire. Upon wielding this sword the user gets reduced damage from fire element attacks.
Lara looks at the new blessing and feels it's not perfect for her battle style but it's definitely useful when in a pinch.
Using her money she buys a new robe to protect herself from the dungeons and continues to the holy city.
Lara leaves the town she was staying to take the long journey to the Holy city.
many moons pass where she slept on the side of the street, eventually going insane due to starvation.
one day a powerful figure stood Infront of her. the man dressed in humble clothing let out a warm and comforting aura like standing Infront of a fire place in winter. "You posses great potential come with me and I'll guide you to new heights" the guy reached out his hand. Lara grabbed it and the guy picked her up and put her in the wagon he was travelling in.
"who are you sir?" Lara asked weakly.
"here have some food" the guy said as he passed her a sandwich with delicious meat salad and oozing sauce. looked like an advertisement. "I am the world's current Fire Dragon. I want to show you the world and show how to use the talent that is being hidden by Fire's rage"
Stunned Lara sits there in the wagon thinking about what was said. "wait... you think I have talent? I can barely defeat a dungeon guardian, I did once but I don't think I could again." Lara sadly says
"You think many can do that? only about 30% of the population can do that so you definitely have talent. we just need to fix your understanding of the fire element, Fire is calming and warm but has the delicate power to burn and kill. learn to control that switch and your power will surge. ill show you" the Fire dragon states to her
....
The wagon travels into the distance.
