Can We Make Up...?

[Boss: Found the child!]

[Second: Where? How is she?!]

[Boss: Not good! She's in the Boss room!]

[Fourth: Boss room? Isn't this the first floor?!]

[Second: Damn it! The Dungeon's structure has been merged! Third, turn around!]

[Third: Hang on! We're almost there!]

[Fourth: Wait! What's the Boss in that room?]

Bzzzz—!!!

A massive barrage of cross-shaped light bullets poured down on Boss like a hail of gunfire, only to melt away the instant they neared the lava domain.

Boss raised a hand, and [Explosive Flying Shield] whistled through the air.

The Snow Mountain Ape King let out a roar, forming an enormous snowball in its hands before hurling it forward.

The two collided violently in midair, unleashing a fierce explosion and shockwave.

[Boss: King Snow Ape! But it's ridiculously huge!]

[Fourth: Fuck! Can you feel the ground shaking?!]

[Boss: Obviously!]

Boom—!!!

The Ape King slammed both arms into the ground, and visible shockwaves surged toward Boss and Ifrit like a tsunami.

Boss's flaming pupils shrank. He immediately retreated to Ifrit's side, dropped to one knee, and shielded the girl tightly with his body.

The terrifying shockwave swept past, doing nothing to Boss. Instead, it made his body even larger, reaching ten meters!

Boss lowered his head and saw the pain on Ifrit's face. The fury in his chest surged again!

"Roar—!"

With a furious roar, the Lava Giant charged back at the Ape King.

The Ape King narrowed its scarlet eyes and remained still, only to slam the ground again just as Boss was about to reach it.

"Rumble—!"

The ground beneath Boss instantly collapsed, throwing his entire body off balance as he toppled to one side.

Seeing this, the Ape King beat its chest with both hands. Countless sharp icicles shot toward Boss like a torrential downpour.

The piercing hiss of ice melting under the intense heat rang out continuously. Soon, dense white mist blanketed the entire battlefield.

The Ape King braced both hands against the ground and launched its massive body into the air, using the force to charge violently into the white mist!

Then—

"Roar—!!!!"

A barrage of punches!

An extremely high-purity barrage of punches!!!

The Ape King frantically pounded the brightest glowing figure within the mist while continuing to fire icicles downward in indiscriminate attacks!

One second passed.

Two seconds passed.

Three seconds passed.

Four seconds...

Smack—!

The Ape King's eyes suddenly widened. One of its fists had been caught!

The Ape King's huge body landed on the ground, and the resulting shockwave blew away the surrounding white mist.

"Roar..."

Rolling waves of heat struck head-on.

As the mist dispersed, what stood there was a Lava Giant nearly twenty meters tall!

The Ape King immediately realized the change in its opponent's size and the sharply increased threat that came with it.

Its other hand instantly formed another huge snowball and smashed it viciously toward Boss's head!

It still had no effect. The snowball vaporized the instant it touched Boss's body.

The Lava Giant's body continued growing, reaching twenty-three meters and already surpassing the Ape King!

Furious and alarmed, the Ape King swung its other fist at Boss's face, only for it to be firmly caught by another hand.

A searing pain shot through the flesh of its hand. The Ape King immediately condensed a layer of ice around its arm.

Lava and solid ice produced vast amounts of mist, which again spread around the two giant beasts.

"Roar—!!!"

The Lava Giant roared and, before the Ape King's disbelieving eyes, lifted its entire body and smashed it brutally into the ground!

The ground cracked and caved in as the Ape King let out a pained howl.

Then, the red light in the Ape King's eyes flared—

The Boss had entered its half-health berserk state!

Its muscles bulged wildly, and its snow-white fur took on an ominous blood-red hue. Violent power erupted from its body, forcibly pushing Boss upward!

Boss refused to yield and increased his strength. At the center of the cavern, the two terrifying giants locked all four hands together and engaged in the most primal contest of strength!

The surrounding earth shattered continuously beneath their pure clash of power, displaying the terrifying strength both possessed—enough to shake mountains.

"Roar—!!!" x2

The two giant beasts roared at the same time. A curtain of fire and a wave of cold surged toward their faces together, producing white mist that covered their heads.

Within the fog, scarlet berserk eyes locked onto flaming pupils filled with rage!

The smoke was blown away by violent air currents!

What!?

The Ape King's mouth was wide open, and a devastating cross-shaped beam was rapidly gathering within it!

How despicable! It had actually taken advantage of the opening while Boss's hands were restrained!!!

A hint of cunning flashed through the Ape King's berserk red eyes.

With both hands locked down, how would you block this...

Bang—!!!

A devastating heavy punch smashed viciously into the top of the Ape King's head!

Its upper and lower jaws were forcibly snapped shut. The terrifying energy that had not yet fully erupted exploded inside its mouth, sending huge fangs, scalding blood, and shattered ice flying everywhere.

The Ape King was dazed by this attack from a "third party." The intense pain inside its mouth proved that the blow had not been an illusion.

But... the sensations coming from both its hands were clearly real!

Who was it?!

Where had the attack come from?!

Suppressing its dizziness, it looked forward and widened its eyes in disbelief.

Behind the Lava Giant, scorching magma churned violently. An even thicker lava arm was slowly retracting, its fist still flickering with residual crimson heat.

[Apotheosis]

Accompanied by the unsettling sound of surging magma, the Lava Giant expanded once more, its enormous shadow completely enveloping the Ape King's body.

At the same time, another equally massive lava arm formed behind its back.

Oh, never mind. Boss had four arms.

Ape King: "..."

"Roar..." (Can we make up...?)

Its answer was—

"Roar—!!!" (Ora ora ora ora!!!)

A barrage of punches!!!

Boss had used a barrage of punches too!!!

Faster than the Ape King's! Stronger!!

The two arms in front still pinned down the Ape King's arms, while the two larger arms behind swung down in a frenzy at a speed too fast for the naked eye to follow!

Boom boom boom boom boom—!!!!

And that wasn't all. Blinding red light and explosive flames ignited around those two newly formed giant arms!

Driven by their extreme swinging speed, the raging flames formed a circular wall of fiery wind around Boss!

The Ape King's head was continuously warped, dented, and charred beneath the terrifying barrage of punches!

It could not even let out a single cry of pain.

"Roar—!!!"

With Boss's final roar, the two arms in front suddenly released their grip, while the two burning arms behind stopped attacking.

All four lava hands clenched together into one enormous meteor fist and smashed down toward the Ape King's exposed, bloodied chest!

Its snow-white chest instantly caved in. Along with the clear sound of bones shattering came a scorching light that pierced through its back!

"Aw..."

The Ape King let out a dying whimper. Its once-resounding voice now sounded incomparably miserable.

However, Boss had no intention of even granting it the right to wail.

Smack—!

Two hands clamped around its neck like iron pincers, while the other two seized its upper and lower jaws and began pulling them apart!

The Ape King no longer had the strength to struggle. Nothing remained in its eyes but primal terror and pleading as it looked at Boss, who resembled a demon god.

Bzz...

Bzz—

Bzzzz—!!!

The Lava Giant opened its enormous mouth, and a blinding miniature sun gathered within it.

Under the Ape King's despairing gaze, Boss pulled its ruined head closer.

Two hands forced its upper and lower jaws apart as far as they could go, then blasted straight into the depths of its open mouth!

Fire burst from the Ape King's seven openings, followed immediately by flames from its torso.

Boom—!!!

With an explosive blast, the Ape King's massive body broke apart into countless charred fragments that shot in all directions.

A ruined eyeball rolled to a stop before Ifrit with a soft plop, its frozen pupil still holding its final despair.

"Roar—!!!"

Having destroyed its powerful foe, the Lava Giant spread its arms and let out a triumphant roar like a gladiator who had won a duel.

Ifrit stared at the scene before her, as if a myth had come to life, and remained speechless for a long time.

This... was the true Flame Demon?

Rumble rumble—

With the Lord Boss's death, the ground at the center of the cavern rose amid thunderous rumbling, revealing a huge, ornately decorated treasure chest.

At the same time, a dark-blue portal and a dark-purple portal silently spun open in the empty spaces on either side of the chest.

Ifrit's gaze was drawn to the familiar blue portal.

Was that the exit?

She braced herself against the ground and tried to stand, but the Lava Giant's attention was drawn to the chest after it appeared, and it began pounding on it.

The intense tremors made Ifrit, who had just stood up, lose her footing and fall to the ground again.

"Smack..."

A soft sound rang out.

The Lava Giant abruptly turned its head, its burning pupils instantly locking onto her.

Ifrit met its gaze and, after hesitating for a moment, stood up again.

She tried to approach it and gathered her courage to speak:

"Um... thank you..."

"Roar—!!!"

A scorching blast of air rushed toward her. Before Ifrit's eyes, a lava meteor rapidly expanded until it filled her entire vision.
