With all three bosses dead, all that was left standing was me and the man responsible for this whole thing. He had recovered from the shock of me defeating the bosses and was trying to direct the monsters surrounding us into the fray.

All the good that did.

They were little more than an annoyance now and they fell to the ice swirling around me easily. Cutting and pulverizing anything that entered their range. They entered into a 50-foot area around me and were swiftly chopped to pieces.

Even so, the man continually directed them to die.

Words streamed out of his mouth trying to worm their way into my head but I didn't let them. I clamped down on any foreign influence trying to influence me and obliterated it completely.

The feeling that something deep inside was welling up came back as I walked over the Blaze Lion's frozen corpse but I didn't know what it was.

Without any more beasts to interfere, I leveled my gaze upon the one who had caused all of this. The man who couldn't leave well enough alone and thought himself invincible.

It was vindicating to see him brought so low. Sputtering and flailing around like some coward.

Every step took me closer to him and the end of the whole charade. Seeing his beasts get slaughtered trying to defend him, he pulled out a sword to defend himself.

Seeing the weapon I couldn't help but snort. Now? Now he was going to fight like a real warrior? To defend himself with his meager abilities.

With the weapon in hand, he gained control over himself and stood ready for battle. It was laughable.
