Good Morning, to those in Anko-Naztas Inkoran-Tazul! Regardless of where you are or who you are, the Origin Gods wish all of you a fine WaterDay. Today marks the beginning of the first Event Quest after the implementation of the unique Job System. Participation in the rank A dungeon [Manethalas Nest]

[Various Spell Buffs] [Blessing of the Goddess of Light (Major)] [Music Resonation] inflicted on [Young Sunfang Dragon, Hestia Atsuko Kargryxmor]

Yikes. Big yikes.

Morphtronic Shiegydios: A golem specially made by a dungeon to act as its core boss. With a flexible frame made from many pieces, its mana allows it to assume various forms to decimate any opposition. Its main form allows it to act as a siege engine, able to break down any wall or gate with its giant horns. Created in the form of a bipedal earth drake, its specialized front arms allows it to punch, grab, and smash to dissuade both monster and humanoid enemies. Extremely high vitality but crippling low wisdom. Rank B

Race: Morphtronic Shiegydios Level: 40

Health: 30000

Vitality: 10000

Wisdom: 500

This wasnt the 25th floor, this was only the 20th. This was not the end boss, this was just a mid-boss, a floor guardian. Yes, this monster with health and vitality far higher than mine was just a mid-boss. Talk about an unfair dungeon, really.

From the look of the System message, the 10th of AutumnSun had finally arrived, meaning the Event Quest had officially begun and my friends were probably already in their dungeon by now. I wished them good luck and hoped to see them again Strangely, I had more faith in their survival than mine at this point.

This boss seemed easy, right? Just use magic, it had 500 wisdom, probably lower than most rank Ds. Since VifiYok recovered, she should have been able to use her lightning magic again to supplement my own arsenal. Well, there was one major issue.

During this battle, an anti-elemental magic field will be deployed, reducing all elemental damage from spells, runes, enchantments, and abilities to zero. Neutral mana attacks and any non-elemental damage sources will work as normal

That was the big problem.

Guuuuuhn! The golem roared as it detected Tatsuya, Kyouya, and me in my dragon form. The entrance we came through closed right up, blocking our way back.

The golems mechanical pieces rattled and clanged around as rammed their thick, developed arms on the ground, pointing a trio of triceratops-like horns in our direction. In the position of a sprinter on the starting position, the front horn of the monster snapped down, turning into a spear with a loud metal clunk!

Crap! Humanize!

[Humanize (Minor)] inflicted on [Young Sunfang Dragon, Hestia Atsuko Kargryxmor]

As I noticed the backside of the golem transform into a cylinder, reminding me a bit too much of a cannon, my [Foresight] and [Danger Perception] activated, prompting me to turn back into my dragonewt form from my dragon self. Using my smaller frame, I slipped right under the monsters horns with the boys. As we ran for it, Tatsuya noted how it was turning around to follow us.

Drifting like a car, the beast swerved around this dome-like chamber, redirecting its charge trajectory. I cast [Hydra] to act as our shield, while Kyouya created a black wall with his armor before I healed him. The room said we couldnt deal damage from elemental magic, but unlike the anti-magic area we encountered in the monster room, this room's gimmick was far less dangerous.

With Kyouyas wall blocking the monsters sight, we managed to dodge out of the way as it rammed right into it, landing into my trap with the [Hydra], constricting its movement. Although it couldnt deal any damage with its flame, the acidic toxins I planted in the corrosive slime of my spell was causing the beasts body to sizzle.

Undeterred by the pain, the mid-boss lit up before it blew up like a bomb, sending the peices of both my [Hydra]s and its own body flying across the room. However, the boss' parts reversed course and returned to the blast's epicenter, reforming itself back into its previous form before it began punching the ground. The boys and I kept dodging before I found a moment to cast [Terra Wall], tripping it before I used [Humanize], once again.

[Humanize (Moderate)] inflicted on [Young Sunfang Dragon, Hestia Atsuko Kargryxmor]

Enjoy the show! I shouted before I activated my [Aerokinesis] and readied [Draconic Roar]. Is this the fated battle, the light shines

Its blinding my sight

But Ive gotta hold on, the stage calls

The cries of a thousand, the flames of war will descend

My empowered voice blasted the creature away with a sonic attack. When I checked on it with [Mana Eyes], I confirmed it could take damage from my audio-based attacks, as they were technically elementless.

With [The Will to Fight and Survive] boosting everybodys stamina regeneration, the boys went into action as they executed their part in this plan. I technically could have played a second song now that my [Star Idol] had [Musical Renaissance Diva]allowing two spell songs to apply their effect simultaneouslybut I didn't have another song to help out with.

The best second song would be [The Heir of Hope], which provided everybody with a 10% boost in their stats and a shield, but it also applied the holy element to everybodys physical attacks. As the rules of the room mentioned, ANY elemental attacks would have their damage reduced to zero. I would effectively cripple the boys attack with it. [Prayer]s 30% boost with [Blessing of the Goddess (Major)] would have to be good enough.

As the beast pushed itself up and turned one of its arm into a large shield to block my sonic attack, Tatsuya began to physically morph into a werewolf, letting loose an ear-splitting howl. Now covered with black fur, razor-sharp claws, and a ferocious look, he ingested three fulinoe leaves and activated [All-In].

Going for strength now! Boost me! Tatsuya stopped a bit away from the monster, readying his spear.

The boss, probably with its skills, noticed Kyouya's continued approach, prompting the monster to turn one of its arm into a cannon. Just like the monster room golem, it began shooting mana blasts at the boys, but Kyouya once again used his unique Skill to produce protective walls.

Unlike the monster room, though, I could still cast spells so I overlapped three [Sacred Field] over the boys, giving them some healing-over-time as this was happening. Kyouya was even using some holy flame grenades as burst heals to top himself up instead of using up our few remaining potions.

With his shadow armor, he was protected from the explosion, allowing him to stand his ground and continue creating more walls while I kept the boss mostly preoccupied with my voice. Still, the golem managed to push back, eventually running into the ideal spot for Tatsuya to [Dragoon Jump] into the air and [Dragoon Dive] right into the back of the golem with [All-In].

With all the buffs and [Prayer], his total strength skyrocketed to the point the golem was pushed back by a level 94 human. Somebody this guardian floor boss shouldnt even consider a threat!

Still, it wasnt a killing blow due to the monster's higher defence, but that was okay! With all of this happening, it gave my [Hydra] just enough time to regenerate and grab its legs, pulling it closer to me. The golem fell onto its back with Tatsuya jumping off it just in time. However, instead of helplessly accepting its death, the thing morphed its hands into two hooks which it used to anchor itself on to the ground.

Once again, the mechanical parts of this clearly stone golem began to loosen, escaping my slime golem. With its split body, it turned one part into a large cannon and readied a mana blast at us. The boys ran back to me as I poured my mana into the ground in front of me, leaving a magic circle there.

The boys gulped as the cannon continued charging powers while my hydra kept the golems other half from joining its cannon side. With a bellowing, ear-splitting sound, the mana cannon shot its blast at us, signaling our plans last stage!

Warp Point: Entry! I shouted, opening a portal in front of me that led back to a room on the 19th floor of the dungeon where I had [Warp Point: Exit] placed.

With a wide grin, the boys and I watched as the blast entered the portal, probably blowing up the room inside and releasing a massive shockwave, one which didnt affect us as we were on the other side of the portal! Instead, the golem was caught by its own backblast, causing it to crash against the wall.

However, this wasnt all. There was a very good reason why VifiYok and Rajah werent here in this room with us, and it wasnt due to us getting lost or separated. I had a map, for goodness sake. They were just hanging back for this very moment. This moment of our plan we made during our scouting!

Mreeeeewww! Rajah roared as he jumped out of the shadow with VifiYok on his back, holding onto my spear.

The crack I made! Thats where the mana core is! Tatsuya shouted, pointing at a small loose part on the golem cannon.

VifiYok didnt respond back as she readied to jump off Rajah. My battle cat used [Dark Tendrils] from the shadow cast by the golems frame due to the light from [Sacred Field]. Just like Saori, he sling shotted himself forward, allowing VifiYok to jump off him and ram my spear right into where the core was, pinning it into the wall.

Guururaaaaahhhh!!! The golem roared out as its core broke, causing its pieces to rattle like crazy, looking like the thing was about to explode.

Out! I hadnt expected this to happen, but it was convenient I had a portal open. The five of us quickly escaped through the portal before I closed it.

That could have been easier if your sister was around, VifiYok complained. We wouldnt have to plan all of this for that long.

Oh shut it, I threw a donut towards her, causing her smug face to brighten up before she devoured it.

Well, that was how this boss should be handled when the dungeon was a pure mess of unfairness. I mean, come on, 10000 vitality? Good thing a golems weakness was their mana core, similar to a slime, otherwise this would have been pretty impossible.

Acid to weaken armor, Tatsuya to land a singular attack to crack the defenses open after I located its mana core, and Kyouya keeping everything stable with his walls. Then, just use VifiYok stats as a level 150 demonkin of wrath soldier to end the thing outright. That strategy was easy enough to pull off.

Bio: Hey there, AbyssRaven here. I'm just an avid Light Novel and Fantasy story reader who randomly thought of a story and began writing about it.

I eventually found out that I've been spending a bit too much time with building, planning, and researching for the story, that I've decided to just share it with others.

Writing is mostly a hobby for me, but I would still love any kind of criticism to improve on it.

I'm also german, so please excuse anything that sounds a bit weird...I wouldn't mind you pointing it out though.
