A three-headed zombie serpent of over a hundred meters greeted my sight. I had fought only zombies right now so I never thought the size difference would get so big out of nowhere, but it made sense, the dungeon was gigantic, and therefore, there would be gigantic foes.
"SHAAAAH!"[The Boss of the First Floor: [Three-Headed Mutant Zombie Serpent (World Realm: Tier 6)] roars back at you!]
Its rotten body was covered by reinforcing runes imbued with cosmic energy and nether, making it really strong. It was a World Realm of Tier 6 after all, probably capable of wasting over an entire world if it could.
However, it was confined inside of this small dungeon, so what it was capable of was very limited, nonetheless, the foul beast greeted me with a breath of decay.
FLUOSH!
It opened its three jaws and released toxic gases that could melt most powerful beings into nothing but boiling liquid. The green gases filled my surroundings, engulfing me completely.
Though, nothing much happened to me.
"Well, that's disappointing."My body was naturally permeated by a Cosmic Aura, my Authorities were naturally merged together into a Domain-like Aura surrounding me. I didn't even let the toxic and acidic gases touch me at all.
However, it didn't stop there. The beast immediately charged, all three of its jaws wide open, it released its Cosmic Aura, clashing against me with all its strength.
Waves of toxic and acidic cosmic gases and nether constantly clashed against my Aura, any other being might have been pushed back.
But I wasn't, as my shield protected me.
Well, and the rest of my body too, I was quite tough.
"SHAAAH!"
A barrage of biting attacks descended towards me, followed by several piercing tail attacks using its bone-tipped tail. I blocked them all with my hammer and my shield, explosions of light and darkness coming from each blow.
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
"You sure pack a punch! Wouldn't expect any less from a World Realm beast anyways!"
"SHYAAAH!"
CRASH!
The monster only hissed back at me, its piercing tail quickly clashing against my shield and pushing me away as strongly as possible. Yet I barely gave a single step back. I looked back at the three-headed monster, swinging my hammer towards its head as I appeared right above it in a split second through my Partial Dimensional Warping.
"[Black Heaven's Judgement]"
I activated my hammer, Metatron's special ability right away. I had no time to waste with this anyways, and I wanted to see the extent of its abilities.
And yes, without a doubt, they exceeded my expectations.
BAAAMMM!!!
A powerful attack was unleashed, the smashing blow hit the three headed beast with the weight and power of a cosmic explosion, chaotic energies encompassing the monster, as its three heads immediately exploded, splattering into pieces over the ground.
The monster died immediately, its entire body quickly collapsing over the floor, as the chaotic energies left behind created several pools of miasma.
"Whew, this is a good weapon, without a doubt." I smiled, cleaning the sweat off my forehead. "Oh, looks like we got some loot too!"
As the boss monster died, the gate to the second floor opened, and also a silver-colored treasure chest materialized in front of its corpse, this loot wasn't the one my ability created, no that one appeared after the monster's body was absorbed and repurposed.
Ding!

Oh, I got four levels and two new Skills! Interesting, they seem pretty decent.
[Chaotic Hammer Smite: Lv4]
An Attacking Skill that can only be activated when wielding Blunt and Heavy Weapons such as Hammers.
When activated, channel Cosmic Energy and Chaos Essence to unleash an explosive, almighty smiting attack that can destroy a foe's defenses, dealing up to 1000% Damage based on Strength Stat, which increases by +100% with each Skill Level. The attack ignores 30% of the foe's defenses and causes a [Chaotic Shockwave] that spread Chaotic Flames within the surroundings.
Additionally, when the attack connects on a foe, there's a 20% chance to cause [Armor Break] on them, decreasing all of foe's Defenses by -70% for 30 Seconds. with each interconnected attack on a single foe, the chances increase by +5%.
[Demonic Shieldmanship: Lv3]
A Defensive Skill that can only be activated when using Shields.
By imbuing Demonic Energy into your compatible shield, you can unleash the [Demonic Shieldmanship Techniques], with carrying sets of abilities and effects.
[Demonic Defense]: Decreases Damage taken by -90% and rebounds 50% of the damage decreased. Cooldown: 30 minutes.
[Devil's Riposte]: Take as much damage as possible and then release it back as an explosion of demonic flames, dealing damage based on 100% of all damage absorbed plus another +200%.

Enhances the effects of Demonic Shieldmanship by +50% with each Skill Level. You can also recover your shield's Durability using your own Health Points and Blood.
An Attack Skill and a Defensive Skill, they look very simple, but sometimes that's all what you want at the end. And they are good ingredients for future Skill Fusions as well, so I'll happily take them.
Ding!
