“Diablo, we are ready when you are.” I was ready to see this boss once more. I was originally unsure of what would happen if we came down here as this room was full of monsters, but now with Diablo, I know we will all leave this place. This team is now more like a small knitted family. We can act ourselves without worrying about status or race. If only the rest of the world could act the same.
“Then let’s get this show on the road. I really wish to meet this Annie person….” Diablo was more interested in food than anything, it seems.
I chuckled as I watched Diablo push the door open to the boss room with little effort, as if he was opening a normal sized door. He pushed so hard that the door banged on the sides of the stone wall, causing a loud echo to reverberate throughout the dungeon. This instantly caught the attention of the thousands of monsters sitting inside the boss room along with the boss itself.
“Another visitor?” The boss turned and looked at Diablo with squinted eyes. “You small and squishy too…. I let the other small and squishy ones deal with….”
The boss had no chance to even finish its words as Diablo waved his hand and killed them all. I could only stand behind him, feeling useless. At the same time, I was glad Diablo was on our side!.
ɴ[0)ᴠᴇʟ “Squishies turned into bloody mess…. Maybe you can last longer than one pinch.” The boss was not angered at all by the fact that Diablo killed all its minions. But then again, when I remembered that he had been killing them as they spawned, I guess it was only natural.“Last more than one pinch? I should be saying the same about you. Can you even last a single flick of my fingers?” I watched as Diablo’s lips curled up into a smile. He then raised his hand and flicked his finger.
“AhhH! You! You hurt me! You must die!” The boss yelled out. I couldn’t help but wonder just how bad this boss’s intelligence was. While it could speak, unlike the other goblins, this one seemed to be a bit special in more ways than one. “Appraisal”

Ah yes, so this was why I could not see his stats before. But still, this much health was a bit unfair. Was anyone normal supposed to be able to kill this thing? I mean, if we had come down here without Diablo, there would be no way to kill this guy alone with all these ads. Especially if I did not have infinity mana, they were just asking for people to die in the boss room.
“Master, I will finish him off. He talks too much.” Diablo said while flicking his finger. The boss, who was charging at Diablo, head exploded while its body moved forward a few more steps before falling to the ground.[Goblin Ancient Corpse]
“It seems to be dead…. Two hits from you, and it was killed instantly. I feel… weak….” I really did feel weak. I know I would have struggled for a long time, and even then, I might not have been able to live long enough to kill the boss, never mind those around me. I sighed as I went to walk past Diablo to check out the loot. But Diablo quickly grabbed my arm and pulled me back. “It’s not over yet.”
“Huh?” I looked up at Diablo with a confused expression. I had just used appraisal on the body, and it said it was a corpse.
“Keke….” A sickening laughter was heard echoing throughout the room. “To think someone was able to truly beat that big brute…..”
Everyone’s eyes, including my own, turned towards the sound of the voice. There was a man standing there by the dungeon core in a black cloak with purple lines all over his face. The hood made it hard to see anything but his face, but besides the purple lines, he also had purple eyes. He looked human, but for some reason, I do not think he was human at all. You could just say it was a six sense that was telling me this. But those lines…. I think I remember seeing them in my dream.
“It is quite interesting to see someone come this far so soon. Although this dungeon is quite special, as I wanted to get a few test subjects so I made it so that as soon as the first boss dies, the entire dungeon would be blocked off until the dungeon was cleared. But it seems I will not be able to this time around. Very good beings of this torn planet. My name is Azengrade. I hope you will give me more entertainment in the future.” Azengrade bowed slightly before disappearing. Both I and Diablo stared at the spot he disappeared in with complex expressions. I didn’t even get to use appraisal on him.
“Diablo, that man’s strength?” I asked, hoping he could fill me in.
“Equal or above my own. Master, it seems this world is more interesting than I thought. But If I am to protect you and your family, then I will need to grow stronger. Much stronger.” Hearing Diablo, who was already insanely powerful, say that that man was just as powerful or more powerful than him caused me to feel a bit of dread. But I agreed with one thing that Diablo said: “I also need to get stronger….”
“I will do everything in my power to support you and your friends. This kind of threat is not something we can handle at this time. He also did not make a move. It is more like he wants you to grow stronger. People like him are people you should fear the most and work hard to take down.” Diablo slowly let out a long breath as he spoke. I think he was masking it, but I think he also felt fear from that man.
“For now, let’s gather the items and everything else.” I said as I walked over to the pile of loot. As soon as I walked over there I saw another shiny object this one was much bigger and red. I quickly picked it up and used Aprrasial on it.
