Chapter 22: A Dangerous Boss with Amazing Skills
When he opened the large doors, he found a large room built on the rock.
At the back of the room, a strange creature stood on four spider legs. Its lower body was that of a spider, but its upper body was that of a really big goblin, with powerful arms and two additional spider legs, which were a bit strange because it used them as hands.
On one of the spider's hands rested a magic book that seemed to be burning continuously.
Elliot had not seen this item before when he took a look at it, so it caught his attention.
'... A book on fire that never burns. I hope it's not what I'm thinking.' He swallowed a little.
On the other spider arm rested a strange broken mirror.
Its goblin hands were holding a sword, and the other was free.
'I saw it from behind before, but this looks more dangerous than I thought, especially because of that little book.'
If he was unlucky, that book would be a Magic Tool capable of creating fireballs. It is one of the ways in which someone could cast spells at a distance without being a Soul Mage. Of course, the premise for casting that magic is that you are akin to the magical elemental attribute.
And the thing is that this beast is related to that attribute, as it is a Physical Fire Mage. possibly. Although its attack will be less powerful, it is an attack that can burn up oxygen, and there isn't much oxygen in a dungeon, so it would be in trouble if something like that happened.
Seeing this, Elliot knew he had to hurry and put the tank in front of him. He walked right behind the tank, and the killer rat was behind him, hidden in his figure.
