The blue and red from the kobold boss and Gray clashing as they stared at each other.
The kobold boss howled, increasing in size as it did. It now stood at 5 meters tall, and its fangs extended to a dangerous length.
Gray's smile widened, baring fangs of his own, he turned the chains back into blood, and switched the pistol to his right hand.
"And so? Is that new form of yours all for show?" asked Gray, taunting the boss and causing it to charge at him.
Gray lunged to the side, trying to avoid the clash, however, the boss was simply too agile for him. It changed direction to meet him, slamming him into the cavern floor,
Gray coughed out blood, all the air winded out of him. "I knew you wouldn't disappoint," laughed Gray, shooting at another stalactite causing it to fall to the ground.
However in this new form, the kobold boss was too agile to be caught by such cheap tricks, it swung its tail, swatting the stalactite towards Gray's direction.
Gray rolled to the side, barely avoiding the attack, small shards of limestone cutting his face.
He changed the gun into a long sword, swinging it at the kobold boss. The kobold boss ducked under it in response, its tremendous speed in great contrast to its massive size.
Gray didn't stop his advance, he used the momentum from the first attack, turning the long sword into a battle-ax. He pushed his full weight to increase the arc's momentum, swinging it in a full circle till it came back for a second attack.
This time the kobold boss moved backward, avoiding another clash. Sweat and blood dripped down Gray's face, his heavy breathing and the sound of their footsteps being the only sounds present as they faced each other.
Gray used the momentum from the second swing and turned the battle-ax into a greatsword, he slightly changed the blades arc and aimed to slice the beast in half, however the kobold boss put up it's force field, nullifying that attack.
Gray quickly turned the greatsword into a dagger, and ran around the kobold boss, trying to find an opening, however, the bodies lying on the floor made it hard for him to maneuver.
The boss shot out fireballs from its mouth, prompting Gray to hide behind the surrounding stalagmites to avoid its attack, however, the toll from creating such heavy weapons was beginning to slow him down.
A fireball hit him on his left leg, causing him to stagger and fall down. Gray quickly rolled behind another stalagmite and pulled out the item shop.
"I'm glad I haven't used any of this yet," laughed Gray, sweat blurring his vision as he picked out one minor healing elixir, two agility elixirs, and one strength elixir, using all 4000 of his Arcanian points at once.
He quickly drank them wiping his mouth once he was done,"Time for round two" shouted Gray, his injuries fully healed.
Gray started off strong, creating a greatsword from the beginning. He swung it in a wide arc, prompting the boss to dodge backward again, but as Gray rotatated his body, a smirk was visible on his face.
He swiftly turned the greatsword into a pistol and shot at the kobold boss once it thought it was safe, one of its eyes was now out of commission.
Gray didn't give it time to relax, he turned the gun back into a greatsword while still rotating his body, extending its blade until it was long enough to reach the boss.
The boss put up its force field once again, blocking Gray's attack, however Gray was counting on that. He changed the greatsword into chains, turning the tip of the chain into a spiked ball.
He flung the chains around like a mad man, hitting down as many stalactites as he could, the additional strength from the elixir allowing him to do so.
As the stalactites fell, the kobold boss removed its force field in order to dodge the oncoming debris, realizing that they were too many for it to block with its force field.
"I thought so. You can't move with your force field up can you?" laughed Gray.
After he had taken two agility elixirs, his speed was nearly on par with that of the kobold boss, and with it's vision deteriorated, it couldn't maneuver like it once could.
Gray followed after it, swinging his chains at it as he did. The kobold boss used its tail to catch Gray's chains, pulling him as the chains wrapped around its tail.
"Got you," smiled Gray, as he turned the chains into a giant scythe with a massive blade.
At that moment the other participants entered the boss room, the sight of Gray smiling hysterically as he used a massive scythe to chop of the kobold boss's head was reminiscent of the devil.
As the kobold boss's head fell to the ground, so did Gray, the strain he had accumulated during the fight finally having an effect on him.
"Stay back," warned Gray as he created a blood gun, pointing it at one of the participants who tried to approach him.
"I don't need your help," a blue portal appearing in front of him.
As his eyes turned back to normal an autonomous voice rang out.
[Congratulation on completing the dungeon. Rewards equivalent to the difficulty of this dungeon will be rewarded.]
[Dungeon difficulty: F]
[Rewards: kobold trinket]
"Kuk, whatever, lets go boys," said the woman with chocolate brown skin, annoyed that someone else had found the boss room before her.
She and all the other participants went through the portal, disappointment painted across their faces. Gray split the Kobold boss's head open and pulled out a gaint blue gem stone.
As he was picking up the guns that the paramilitary members had dropped, he realized that the kobold boss's staff was on the floor as well.
"Hmm, it left it's staff," whispered Gray, with a smile on his face.
