The scorching and boiling ponds of lava shake uncontrollably as long, snake-like dragons emerged from within, opening their wide jaws filled with sharp fangs, their throats released flames that would melt most metals within seconds, fiercely trying to burn us down by working as a pack.
"GROOOWWL!""Don't bother us"
Flash!
The flames were easily blocked by a wave of my hands, which released winds that dissipated the flames within seconds.
"Growl…?!"
Suddenly, seven different colors converged into a strong brilliance of rainbows lights, even blinding the Wyrms for a few seconds as the Harpy Siblings fused and became one.
"Hey, we are your opponents!" it said, flapping the colorful wings that reached up to three meters each and releasing dozens of feather projectiles of rainbow colors, as if they were missiles that flew across the air, reaching the wild Wyrms and detonating in great explosions over their hard and scaled elongated bodies.
Boom! Boom! Boom!"GRRRYYAAA!"
"GRRROOWL!"
"GRRAAAA!"
The Wyrms shrieked in agony as they discovered that the projectiles released by the little bird in front of them left large and deep wounds into their flesh, some of them began to vomit their innards as they fell down into the ponds of lava. Some tried to resist and escape, but Nirah and Belle appeared before them smiling innocently.
"Divine Poison Aura! Venomous Dagger Dance!" said Nirah as she flew around in the air with the 'Levitate' Spell, and danced across the air while using her six arms to throw daggers coated in poison in a spinning motion.
The daggers were coated in the poison she secreted in her nails and also that of her Divine Poison Aura, which flew like bullets towards the weakened and wounded Wyrms, filling their elongated with poisoned wounds.
Flash! Flash! Flash!
"GRRAAA!"
"GRYAAA!"
The daggers then seeped their Curse Poison into their flesh as the desperate monsters became slow and lethargic.
"I will finish them off!" said Belle as she flew ahead of Nirah while unleashing her Eclipse and Dawn Aura.
Flash!
Her Aura expanded as the environment turned into a different world for the eyes of the Wyrms, Dawn and Eclipses converged into a fusion of light and darkness, shining so brightly that their own illusion made the Wyrms completely blind. The aura converged into rays of light and darkness and finished the Wyrms once and for all.
Boom! Boom!
The two Wyrm's giant bodies fell over the vast floor, as the younglings descended and began to eat them while they were still fresh.
Ahead of them, the door for the Boss was revealed amidst the clouds of dust created by the explosions of magic.
"Mommy, the boss room!" said Valentia at my side, as she was currently devouring a large Thunderstorm Drake King by herself while the younglings were defeating the Wyrms.
"I wonder what will it be this time? Let us hurry inside to see mommy being badass again!" said Vudia flying around the air with her golden butterfly wings.
"Vudia, from where did you get that saying?!" I asked.
"The Rin Sisters say it all the time when they describe badass Light Novel characters!" said Vudia innocently, with her usual smile.
"I see… having my memories but with different personalities is really making them spread whatever I knew in the past… well, it is not like its something bad… as long as the kids don't start swearing above what's allowed," I muttered.
"Mother, will you slay it right away? Can we see?" asked Ailine while floating around the air with her magic.
"Of course Ailine," I said.
"I bet Masta will kill it again in one punch, guuu!" proclaimed Rimuru.
"Can the boss even take one of Honey's hits?" wondered Zehe.
"It will probably be flattened like a pancake again," said Brontes.
"I will slice it up really good when it becomes a flesh pancake! I can't wait, ufufu~" laughed Nesiphae.
"Can Master even have a challenge at all in this dungeon?" wondered Nixephine.
"Well, she had a slight one in the last boss of the Forsaken Labyrinth, but after that… things had escalated quite fast and she had devoured three gods now, so the possibility of a challenge even happening is close to null now… but at least we can bet if the boss will take one of her punches or not," said Charlotte.
"It is not like these bosses would be of any challenge to us either~," said Lilith.
"Indeed, we could also solo these bosses at this point, it would take us a bit of time though, but they're nothing to be worried about…" said Altani.
"I doubt I would be able to solo a boss so simply… but with my sister, I think it should be doable," said Sofarpia.
"I think so as well, Sofarpia. Together we are quite strong… perhaps that's our specialty?" wondered Sofelaia.
"Yeah, when you two work together, it is as if it were just a single fighter due to your amazing coordination. Your ability to easily converge your Auras and complement each other techniques is wonderful, to say the least," I said, praising my beloved centaur wives.
"Oh my, Kireina-sama… we are not deserving of such praise," said Sofelaia shily.
"Fufu, I like when Master praises me!" said Sofarpia.
"But going back on topic, does anyone has a bet that this boss could take at least one punch?" asked Oga.
"Yeah, no. I doubt it to be honest… Kireina-sama is just too strong, hohoho! I love her way of devilishly finishing off Bosses as she does! So merciless!" said Acelina.
"I think it would be merciful, as she kills them quite quickly without them having to suffer so much…" said Ismena.
"So there is no challenge at all in this dungeon for us, I guess that's why this trip had been so relaxed and nice," said Adelle.
"Yeah, it is more like a training session for the younglings to showcase their abilities in a new field that isn't the dungeons back home. Marduk, Nammu, and Nanshe had grown a lot since we entered in here," said Mady.
"Well, it is not like I am seeking challenges as of now, a relaxing life is all I really want to be honest… so treasuring these moments is good, especially when I will have to most likely clash again against some god sooner or later…" I said.
"This has suddenly become like that Light Novel named One Punch Hero!" said Nephiana, remembering a strange Light Novel that had been recently published in our Empire by the Rin Sisters and their team of Succubus Writers.
"Wait… One-Punch Hero?! Don't tell me that the Rin Sisters even plagiarized that… Sigh…" I muttered.
"Kireina-sama, how about using another skill or form of attacking than a punch? Who knows? Perhaps the monster can take it more and make it a challenge!" said Kaguya.
"Well, I was thinking of using my Eyes to attack only, perhaps it could work, as their methods of attack are not as strong… I remember using them in the previous Boss and it took two hits without dying, so it was interesting" I said.
"Maybe that! But wait… if Kireina takes too long, wouldn't she get the Hidden Bonus?" said Gaby.
"Yeah, that's why I will try to finish it off quickly with my eyes. The challenge itself is in trying to one-shot it with my eye lasers" I said.
"Well, that's certainly something else… I don't think I am capable of one shooting a Boss monster with my eye lasers yet…" muttered Nanako as she glanced at the multiple eyes in her body.
"Perhaps if we work together using all our eyes?" asked Mady to Nanako, as the two came out with an interesting idea when fighting a strong foe, teaming up… Well, it was not interesting at all, it was very unoriginal, but they could try to converge their Psychic powers and Laser from their eyes into greater combat techniques.
We walked towards the door as I finally opened it with my Telekinesis, revealing the Boss of these last ten floors.
A large figure resembling a Wolf was revealed, however, it was covered in scales and had sharp and long claws, like those of a reptile. Its head was covered in red horns and it had orange and red fur around its body, with a long and scaled tail that had a pointy end. It had the long ears of a wolf, however. And its long canines poked out of its upper and lower jaw. It possessed six eyes, made into two rows of six eyes.
Inspecting this creature with an Appraisal revealed that its name was 'Grand Giant Blazing Drake Wolf Tyrant Overlord'. The creature exuded an aura of blazing flames that converged into countless fireballs that it immediately fired towards us while charging at great speed by using fire on its legs as propulsion.
Flash!
"Groowl!"
Opening its gaping jaw would reveal countless eyes spiraling around its mouth and even reaching its throat, it was truly an interesting monster.
"Aegis," I said, summoning my Barrier of Protection and Healing, Aegis, which appeared as a barrier made out of semi-transparent white energy, which I moved and expanded widely, blocking the boss attacks.
"GRAWL!"
The Giant Drake Wolf unleashed a powerful blazing breath that carried electricity within, trying to get rid of me right away.
However, I glanced at it straight with my eyes and activated all the eye skills I had at my disposal, such as the [Demon Overlord of Lust Sixteen Chaotic Eyes of Perception, Senses, Bewitchment, Malice, and Demise], [Dragon Eye of Storms], [Beast Eyes of Piercing Light], [Nightmarish Demon Scarlet Eye of Rage], [Divine Crimson Eyes of Endless Abyssal Nightmares], and [Crystal Whale Jewelry Eyes of Magic Conjuration] Skills.
Each eye skill converged into single energy which I infused with my Divine Aura and fired as lasers that converged red, pink, purple, and dark colors into one, spiraling endlessly into a ray of demise.
Flash! Flash!
The Drake Wolf somehow felt that the attack would kill it, trying to evade, but it was too late, my attack was too fast, and it already was near its head.
"GROOOWL…!"
Boom!
A large explosion happened which made the entire floor tremble for a few seconds, the Boss received both lasers fully charged into its head and torso, exploding into pieces almost instantly, while the laser kept its trajectory and clashed against the dungeon's walls, almost breaking them apart due to their sheer power.
As the scene calmed down, pieces of flesh fell upon the floor one after another as if it were raining meat and blood.
"Even with her laser she just one shot it! Mommy is really the best!" said Vudia while flying towards my side fascinated by the bloody spectacle.
"It was nothing… it seems that not even my lasers are weak… even when I have not developed them as much as the other skills or techniques," I said, as I used Blood Magic to manipulate the blood scattered everywhere and drinking it all. It was a Dungeon Monster blood, so it could not strengthen me, but it was delicious, nonetheless.
Ding!
[Kireina] defeated the boss [Grand Giant Blazing Drake Wolf Tyrant Overlord]!]
[Kireina] completed several conditions]
[Great Overkill], [Great Overwhelm], [No Item Used], [Detect Weak Point], [Merciful Kill], [Complete Annihilation], [Effortless Victory], [One Hit KO], [Induce Fear]
[Therefore, [Kireina] have been granted with corresponding prizes]
[Kireina] obtained the item(s) [Ancient Reward Loot Box (S)] x3
[Kireina] obtained the item(s) [Super Incredible EXP Elixir (1.300.000.000.000) (Legendary)] x1 (BONUS!)
[Kireina] obtained the item(s) [Legendary Relic of the Grand Giant Blazing Drake Wolf Tyrant Overlord] x1 (SECRET BONUS!)
[Kireina] acquired the [Blessing of the Grand Giant Blazing Drake Wolf Tyrant Overlord] Skill!]
Oh? It seems that I got a Legendary and not a Lesser Legendary Relic this time… I feel like it will be a delicious meal.
Perhaps the next two bosses will also give Legendary Relics instead of Lesser? Hopefully… perhaps the last boss will drop a Phantasmal one? Well, I cannot ask Nyzzet about this regard, as he does not control the rewards given in his dungeon, as that is the task of the System Gods and they do not talk with any other god.
I began to quickly gather everything so it can be cooked and eaten properly, although I could not help but snack on the scales, fur, and bones for now.
