We finally arrived on the 15th floor at 4pm. Ciara is far from normal right now but it seems like she’s become accustomed to the dungeon.
“Should we fight the boss?”
“I want to say, obviously. But I’ve been relying on you this whole time.”
“Thats OK, leave it to me.”
The boss here is commonly known as ‘fatty because hes a fat ghost. Although despite its appearance it’s pretty strong and is known to wipe the floor with [berserker]s.
It’s special ability is producing smaller ghosts from its mouth, but as it does this its HP goes down and it’s body shrinks. However if you can’t defeat the smaller ghosts after a certain amount of time the larger ghost will eat them and regain its HP.
I’m a bit worried about Ciara because the boss fight usually turns into a situation where you’re surrounded by a bunch of small ghosts. I’m afraid her constitution will deteriorate further.
The method of attack is to slowly defeat the smaller ghosts and whittle down the HP. If you attack the main body while there are smaller ghosts out they will immediately swarm the attacker making further movement impossible.
“Don’t attack the main body unless I give the signal. Especially Rana and Hannah, you have low HP.”
“Ok, I’ll be careful.”
“I got it! Attack the little ones until you give the signal!”
“Then once the number of small ghosts is low, Ester you have high RES and HP so you can attack the main body. When she does that Rana..”
“Heal right? Leave it to me!”
“Got it, and if it spits out smaller ghosts again back off right?”
“Good, it looks like everyone understands. Let’s go! ”
“Kekekekekekeke.”
A huge purple balloon looking thing in the center of the room laughed.
“Hannah, Rana, get the first strike in before the smaller ghosts come out!”
“《Fireball》!”
“《Light blade》《pillar of light》!”
The moments before it let’s out the smaller ghosts is valuable time to inflict damage.
“Kekekekekeke bobobobobobo!!!”
The laughter stopped and it finally spit out 8 smaller ghosts, it’s body decreasing in size every time.
“《Guard stance》”
Ciara pulled aggro.
“《Shine lightning》!”
“《Precious thrust 》!”
I dashed in front of Ciara and released an attack, the HP of the smaller ghosts is relatively low and 6 were defeated in one attack. Ester followed behind me and eliminated the other two with a single thrust, it seems like she’s getting used to her spear.
“《Fireball》!”
“《Lion’s blessing》《Protection of the Holy Devil》《Blade of light》《Pillar of Light》!”
Hannah and Rana attack the main body as soon as the smaller ghosts were defeated. In addition Rana also buffed us all.
“Ke! Kekekeke bobobbobobobo!”
This time it released 16 smaller ghosts.
“《Guard stance》!”
“《Shine lightning》!”
“《Precious Thrust》!”
This time 5 ghosts were left while we waited for the cooldown times on our skills so that we could attack again.
“””””Kekekeke!”””””
They headed for Ciara sending some Fireballs her way.
“Au”
“《Sonic sword》!”
Ciara’s movement was slow facing the ghost and she took hit from a fireball.
“《Healing prayer》”
Ciaras HP recovered in an instant, she didn’t actually take that much damage to begin with.
Next the ghost released 24 of the smaller ghosts. However we managed to defeat them somehow. In this battle Rana was a beast, her [Light pillar] was an area of effect magic. Because of this she would activate it right in front of Ciara as the ghosts crowded over to her and annihilate large numbers of them at one time.
“Gege, bobobobob!”
This time 32 came out and the bosses hp was reduced to nearly half. I joined in as a tank.
“《Appeal》!”
“《Provocation》!”
Ciara protected the rear as I stepped forward.
“《Shine lightning》”
I defeated 13 in a single attack, that felt good.
“《Pillar of light》!”
“《Fireball》!”
Ester and I left the rest of the smaller ghosts to Hannah and Rana as we rushed straight at the main body.
“《Hero’s sword》!”
“《Precious thrust》!”
“Guugeeeeeee!”
We dealt a lot of damage and the smaller ghosts that were left tried to return in a hurry.
“《Legion thrust》”
“《Shine lightning》”
“《Pillar of light》”
We defeated the smaller ghosts quickly, I even circled around the fatty and managed to deal even more damage by making sure it got caught in my ranged attack.
The bosses body had become nearly transparent, in just a few more attacks we would win.
“Ciara use [Guard stance]”
“《Guard stance》!”
All the smaller ghosts that had come out headed towards Ciara leaving the boss undefeated with low HP.
“Now! 《Sonic sword》!”
“《Precious thrust》! 《Long thrust》!”
“《Pillar of light》”
“《Fireball》”
The smaller ghosts forgot about Ciara and tried to come back but it was too late. Fatty disappeared with a sound like air escaping a balloon, the smaller ghosts disappeared with it leaving behind a lot of drops and a gold treasure chest.
