Bukubukuchagama used her shield to launch a Threat Smash while speaking to the others with a grave expression.
"I need to maintain aggro. Stop attacking for now."
Her voice carried an unquestionable resolve. The two immediately understood and halted their attacks without hesitation.
Normally, a tank's aggro-generating skills were closely tied to the amount of damage dealt. However, Bukubukuchagama's attack power was extremely low, so while using Threat Smash, she cleverly and skillfully activated a special skill, causing the aggro she generated to rocket upward and double instantly.
Sure enough, the BOSS turned around and resumed attacking Bukubukuchagama.
Ulbert's eyes lit up at the sight. Seizing the opportunity, he swiftly unleashed a powerful spell on the BOSS.
Momonga followed up, waving both hands as he cast a slowing spell and layered on all kinds of negative buffs.
Breaking through the BOSS's resistances was incredibly difficult, but once they succeeded, they could inflict massive damage that the BOSS could hardly withstand.
Their current rhythm was fairly good. The four of them were dealing damage slowly but steadily, like a finely tuned machine, every attack landing at just the right moment.
Just then, a notification for a communication spell suddenly appeared in Momonga's field of vision without warning.
Answering a communication spell in such an intense, tense battle could easily distract him. One moment of carelessness might throw off the entire battle's rhythm.
Although Momonga had no desire to interrupt this hard-won damage cycle, some sharp instinct made him grit his teeth and answer the communication spell anyway.
Bukubukuchagama's extremely anxious voice hurriedly came through.
"Momonga-san, I'm sorry to contact you when I know you're still fighting."
Momonga replied helplessly.
"Yeah, we really are in the middle of a fight right now. Give me a moment."
Bukubukuchagama asked urgently.
"How much longer?"
