"Why is i-! Shit! The monster is aiming for-!"
Evan did not get the chance to finish his words as Ocsuat emerged from the smoke of the explosion, charging straight at him with rage in its eyes.
Its speed was faster than before, giving Evan no time to dodge as he reflexively activated his blink and moved a few metres to the right.
However, to his surprise, the monster suddenly killed all its momentum and stopped, turning to the right and charging straight for Evan.
Naturally, there was no way that Pride would stand by and let Evan get run over by the thousand-kilogram frost boar.
"Fire Magic: Prominence of Hell."
A large, long and powerfully destructive red laser-like beam slammed into the body of the monster from the side, knocking it off its feet and forcing its large body to the ground.
**BOOOMM!!!
The laser beam exploded a second later, releasing a shockwave that spread out across the entire room.
"This damn thing really IS tenacious!"
Evan screamed out as he swung his sword to cut apart the large icicles that still kept trying to impale him while transmitting his thoughts to Pride.
'The monster knows where Amy is, that's why it has been occasionally attacking Eliza.'
It was worth stating that the entire boss room was nothing more than a frozen cave when Evan and co stepped into it, with ice stalactites hanging from the ceiling and small tiny snowflakes occasionally dropping to the ground.
However, most of this ice had melted due to the waves of heat released by the fire magic spells and the multiple explosions that occurred since the battle began.
But despite this, it was hard to miss the fact that the ice around Eliza melted a lot faster than in other areas.
And as the master of this boss room, there was no way that Ocsuat did not notice this, hence the reason it was occasionally tossing attacks at Eliza because it sensed the highest source of heat and flame energy coming from her.
However, the true source of this heat was the flame spirit that was sitting on Eliza's shoulder. But since she had not manifested her physical body, the monster could not see her at all.
[Should they do it now, then?]
'yeah, no point staling again.'
As soon as Evan gave Pride confirmation, he sent out a message to Kayla and Kuro, while Pride contacted Amy who was on Eliza's shoulder.
The blizzard around them suddenly died down as Ocsuat withdrew its magic power and channelled it into the ground, creating a large stump of earth that pushed its body back upright.
"GRR-?!"
However, before it could even complete its first growl, it found that it had been surrounded by four translucent barriers on all sides, blocking off all its possible means of escape.
The sheer amount of magic power in each of these barriers was not something it could break with brute force unless it had space to run and build up momentum to charge through.
Unfortunately, the barriers were too close for it to have that kind of space.
[Pseudo Authority of Lighting]
[Breath of Fire]
The ambient energy in the room coalesced to form a gigantic pearl of lightning that floated mid-air, occasionally shooting out bolts of lightning that rained down on the ground.
Kayla's usual black dress turned bright gold as three small rings of lightning formed around her arms.
At the same time, Amy floated up into the air and looked at the frost boar with her usual calm look, gaze, however, a glint of slight annoyance could be seen in the depths of her eyes.
Her body was covered in a thin layer of red light and a tornado of flames swirled around underneath her feet.
Suddenly sensing two new presences on either side of the room, Ocsuat was momentarily stunned, however, it recovered instantly and attempted to attack activate its magic to attack the source of fire while generating a wall of earth to block the lightning.
It rose its foreleg up in the air and was about to stomp it on the ground, however, a spear of dark light shot out from its shadow and pierced into its foreleg from underneath its hoof.
"GAAH!"
Its concentration was shattered as it let out a short cry of pain, with the magic power it had gathered scattering into the surroundings.
[Brightest Shadow.]
Kuro's voice rang out as black light rapidly concentrated in front of the boar's nose until it built up into a large sphere. However, unlike last time, the sphere did not shoot out a multitude of thin beams of light and shadows, but directly exploded in its face.
**BOOM!!
Ocsuat, who had tried to activate its magic once was suddenly dealt a hand of exploding dark light. The creature raged and tried to use its charge skill to bulldoze its way out of the barriers, but it was a bit too late for that.
The ground underneath its feet turned red hot while the pearl of lightning above its head glowed brightly, with enormous magic power building up on both ends.
[[Combination: Flame-Lightning Explosion.]!]
Kayla and Amy shouted/called out at the same time, activating their attacks simultaneously.
The tornado of flames that swirled around underneath Amy, disappeared, a second before it immediately shot out of the ground underneath Ocsuat's feet.
At the exact same instant, all the bolts of lightning released by the pearl floating in the air, fused together with each other, before fusing once again with the large bolt of lightning that dropped from the pearl.
The energy discharge from the combination of the flame tornado and the lightning bolt created a massive explosion that shook the entire boss room.
***KAAABOOOOOOOMMM!!!!
The earth shook and the air trembled due to the force of the explosion, with a large cloud of smoke and fire rising into the air, taking on the shape of a giant mushroom surrounded by fire and lightning.
The omnidirectional shockwaves from the explosion swept Evan, Pride and Eliza off their feet, going on to hit the wall and causing large irregular cracks to spread out across it.
'Shit!'
