The Basilisk's health dropped below 10% as the Lightning Bolt tore through the air, hitting its soft skin, where it's scales were ripped apart.

Shriek...

Suddenly the Beast's body started radiating red aura as if it was about to cast another Magma Shockwave.

"It's show time!"

All the while Leo was fighting the monster, David was safely lying inside a small pot in the ground.

'He' crazy!'

Like a prayer he kept repeating, but still tightly clenched the hilt of his vampiric weapon, ready to spring into action whenever needed.

Before leaving him alone Leo has whispered the plan to David, which he didn't like it.

He basically had to wait until the snake's body was slithering above him to use his weapon and cut it open like a can.

Crack...

The sound of bones being broken resounded across the room, so loud that even David, being underground, could clearly hear it.

'What is happening above!'

His hands were shaking from anticipation and fear of unknown.

While David was biting his nails underground, Leo was looking at the beast before him turning into a different being all together.

The Basilisk's bones were snapping as if they were twigs and reshaping the beast's body structure.

The boss imposing frame was now at least 1.5 times slower while it's crazy long body shortened rewarding it with extra agility. The huge fangs of the Basilisk also somehow went back in its mouth becoming sharp rows of teeth while the forked tail started releasing some kind of weird red particles into the air.

'I should...'

Leo didn't even have a chance to finish his sentence as he was sent flying to the other side of the room.

Luckily at the last second, before the hit, he managed to barely shift his body to the side avoiding the full force of the boss's tail attack.

Stabilizing himself while mid-air Leo looked at the creature, who was now more like a slug than a snake and grimaced feeling the sharp pain in his ribs, a few them were probably broken.

Leo vomited some blood and felt sharp pain everytime he inhaled air, the broken bones had probably pierced his lung.

Quickly using a HP potion Leo managed to barely evade another charge of the slug and jump to the side, slowly directing the monster where David was hiding.

While Leo was slowly baiting it towards it's death, the Basilisk just kept causing violence everywhere he went, getting more and more infuriated everytime the puny human dodged its attack.

The monster began casting Magma Shockwave, it felt that otherwise the human would keep running, evading its every strike until its skill effect would disminish.

Leo taught by the last time, made some distance away from the creature casting Shadow Protection.Even though he was holding the boss on his own, the battle was taking its tall on him. No matter how strong the player, in normal conditions defeating the boss monster was practically impossible.

'I should end this...'

Consuming the fifth MP potion in a row Leo stole a glance at the hole where David was hiding. He noticed a slight red glow dancing inside it and hastened his pace.

Shriek...

Since the Magma Shockwave didn't effect Leo the giant slug quickly closed in the distance trying to bite his head off.

Unfortunately for the beast all its teeth tore through was only air. Confused it looked around only to see the human dozen meters away from it.

"Goodbye!"

Waving his hand towards the monster Leo noticed how its eyes widened in shock and soon it's body trembled in pain.

Screech...

David was doing his job cutting open the body of the slug from below it.

As if stung the Basilisk jolted away from the hole with a trail of blood closely following it.

Even though it was now mortally wounded the monster was not done for, especially when it was still in its berserker state.

'Shit'

Feeling the temperature around him heaten up, Leo knew that his skill was still Cooldown, hence didn't even blink before jumping in a nearby pool of magma.

Since no cracks that could shelter a human his size were nearby Leo chose to dive into the pond of Magma.

-12 HP

-17 HP

+21 HP

Consuming HP potion Leo was trying to fight off the effect of burning, and soon the room shook from the schockwave.

Gasp...

Gasping for air Leo emerged from the pond with his body burnt in various places. His hair was gone, but we're regrowing at fast speeds, his body was in almost perfect condition by the time he fully emerged from Magma.

"Fuck!"

Cursing he quickly shouted David to stop hiding and assist him fighting boss head on.

Boom...

The wall of magma was suddenly raised in the air as the Slug jumped in the pond of magma nearby Leo.

The mage barely managed to defend himself by deploying the grey shield that just came off cooldown.

Closing his eyes, trying to feel the vibrations passing through the ground Leo felt that the monster was somewhere below him.

'Right after I used my Shadow Protection'

Clicking his tongue Leo started moving in a random pattern, trying to confuse the boss.

Crack...

The ground right behind him was thrown into the air as the Basilisk emerged from it trying to devour Leo with its mouth full of teeth.

Feeling the danger right behind him Leo was calm, too calm, it was as if he was prepared for this to happen. As soon as the monster was 1 meter within him he grinned.

"Now!"

A red sword descended on the creature's forked tail separating it from the body.

Shriek...

The boss was feeling more and more pain which made it infuriated. The inability to touch its prey was making its anger reach new heights.

The pain of losing one of its important body parts was sending sending constant pain waves towards it's brain, making it thrash around the battlefield, destroying anything in its path.

Rolling on the ground its eyes suddenly locked on David freezing him in place or rather paralyzing him in fear. The thick wave of bloodlust was transmitted through the gaze of the slug, the human was the one responsible for its lost tail.

Screech...

Because of the tails absence the Basilisk lost some of its agility, otherwise it would appeared nearby David before he could react.

Even though its speed was lowered hundreds of insect-like limbs were working, bringing the Basilisk's body infront of the Demon considerably fast.

Whoosh...

A projectile impaled the beast's uncovered part of the body, but the slug didn't care, its eyes were set on the target - David.

Seeing the beast closing in the distance between itself and David Leo frowned. The vampiric equipment wielded by his teammate was devoid of any blood and wouldn't be able to do the same damage it could previously, leaving David almost defenseless in front of the Basilisk.

Even throwing his Lightning Bolt didn't disturb the Slug, it was fully locked on killing David. Its gaze was freezing it in place, while hundreds of its legs were carrying it towards its prey.

'I will not make it...'

Seeing the distance between himself and David Leo could only thrown Lightning Bolts trying to stop the unstoppable.

Whoosh... Whoosh... Whoosh...

Shriek...

Only after the third projectile the Basilisk's eyes shone with anger as it turned its gaze towards Leo. That's all it took for David to escape, dashing to the side, behind the boulder where the creature's eyes couldn't reach him.

"Good..."

Seeing that David is safe and well Leo smirked, he was interested in the Vampiric sword, but it's wielder, David was also a good player, surviving the boss battle until the end.

'Maybe I should bring him to my group?'

Scratching his neck Leo threw a small at the beast, seeing how pathetic its situation truly was.

The body full of wounds, one eye where seemingly a sea of hated was located was staring into him as if trying to kill with his gaze.

'Its skill is still on cooldown'

Casting a Lightning Bolt Leo lazily grinned towards the beast before throwing the projectile directly at its face.

Crack...

Suddenly the beast opened it's giant jaws and simply bit the spell shattering it with teeth.

'Well that was unexpected'

Slightly taken by surprise Leo had to take a few steps back, in case the snake had other magical things he didn't know about.

Luckily the creature was only staring at him and soon lunged at the Mage as it did previously.

Boom...

Jumping high in the air Leo heard the teeth collide together as they caught nothing else but air.

Landing on the slugs head he almost slipped, but barely managed to hold his balance before creating a Lightning Bolt inside his palm.

"Goodnight!"

Using it to impale the beast's head he was soon thrown off it's body, but the damage was already done. The spell has touched the Basilisk'd brain sending the high voltage into it.
