The Quest Is Simply To NTR All The Heroes - Chapter 126

Chapter 126: Demonic Vulture Of Vhalla, the Night Bloom
The demonic vulture spiralled around like a drill penetrating a concrete wall, and it was making him dizzy.

‘What is the level of this thing? I just want one hit…’

The vulture hadn’t given him any time to catch a break. It was trying its hardest to get him off its neck.

But knowing that this is still a game world and all the creatures still have some game mechanics, well at least that must be the case for enemies, he was sure the vulture would stop to catch its breath.

That was true. Like physics ruling the material world, this world was also ruled by rules called game mechanics.

The bosses and enemies would have certain movements or actions, attacks or buffs, weaknesses or strengths, etc.

‘Just hold on a little more, Kaisen.’

And true to his prediction, the vulture began to slow down.

Kaisen’s grip tightened, and he could feel the power surging through his hand.

He pulled himself forward, hands acting as anchors, and coiled his legs around the thick neck of the creature.

‘Now!’

No longer feeling like he was about to die, and with a secure place to hold on, Kaisen felt confident.

He raised one of his hands back before bringing it down on the feathery head of the vulture.

Bam!

The head of the vulture snapped forward as Kaisen’s fist landed.

-25%

‘Holy fuck! 25%? Really?’

That was 25% of damage taken from its health, leaving the vulture down to 75%.

It screeched loudly like it had just lost its baby.

For a moment, the vulture dived downwards as if it was about to crash into the tree branches.

Judging by the speed, he was sure this was its idea of knocking him off its back.

Swoosh~

‘Damn, its really thinking about crashing me with it, isn’t it?’

The vulture was about to unleash its earlier attacks, but Kaisen wasn’t about to give it that satisfaction.

At the last minute, he let himself go, falling backward.

The vulture crashed straight into the branches, diving downward.

Kaisen, on the other hand, rolled in the air before gracefully landing on the branches.

He took a deep breath, calming his pounding heart.

It wasn’t pounding because he was scared or anything; it was pounding because he was exhilarated.

This was the first time he was fighting a boss alone. Even in the game, he had always stood back and let Alice and Llyod take care of the bosses.

That way, he got the exp points without dying.

And now, for the first time in his life, he was against a mini-boss, without his knees trembling with weakness and his heart pounding with fear of death.

He was strong.

So damn strong that when he had punched the stupid vulture in the head, he felt the power, baby. He felt the power, alright.

“Any second now.”

The vulture was about to use its dive attack. It was going to come from below, and he was ready to end this fight.

He held his breath, listening to the faint sounds, listening for any cracking of wood.

A moment later, his lips curved up as he jumped, raising his fist and bringing it down.

The broken beak came through first, but he jumped at an angle so that he was parallel to the slanted beak.

Then came the demon’s forehead, and this time, his fist connected perfectly with its head.

He saw a -54% on its health bar.

The vulture screeched loudly and stopped moving, like it was hanging in the air because its head was stuck.

“It’s staggered.”

He landed gracefully behind the head and pulled his hand back, delivering the final blow.

When a boss or enemy is staggered, they can’t move for a short period. That’s when you take your sweet time to attack them freely.

Not to mention, the damage taken during this period is so high that even a turtle could finish them off.

“Take this, you stupid vulture.”

Bam!

-21%

The vulture screeched once more before the crimson in its eyes dulled and its health bar dropped to zero.

“Is it over yet?”

He thought this was it.

Kaisen scanned the area for any magical portal or gate that might have appeared after its defeat.

He was waiting for the system message to pop up, signaling his victory, but his eyes widened when he heard a cracking sound behind him. He suddenly looked back.

A sudden jolt on its head. It wasn’t dead.

Its health bar suddenly surged with red vigor up to the 75% mark. Its eyes began to glow like red bulbs turned on.

Anger, pure anger. No, it was more than that.

The vulture thrashed about, its broken beak shooting upwards. Kaisen dodged it, narrowly escaping each time as the vulture rampaged, destroying branches and shaking the entire tree.

Despite its furious attacks, Kaisen noticed something in its eyes: this wasn’t just anger.

Its eyes were full of hatred.

It used its leg to pull itself up, glaring at him with eyes that screamed hate and malice. This demonic creature seemed born out of pure hatred for the world, loathing everything it saw.

Then, it raised its head high and let out a blood-curdling screech.

“?!”

Kaisen covered his ears just in time. The entire tree shook violently, and the vulture started to quiver.

Crack! Crack!

Its feathers began to crack, replaced by a harder substance.

Kaisen narrowed his eyes.

“Are those… bones?”

Its feathers were now replaced by bones, growing larger and larger until its body was covered with nothing but bones.

“A second phase?”

Kaisen had seen this phenomenon before.

Sometimes, when bosses were down halfway on their health bar or even at an empty health bar like in this case, they transformed into a second form.

Their attack style, power, and speed all changed.

This was designed to give players a new challenge. Unsuspecting players would use all their health potions on the first phase, thinking there was only one phase to the boss.

When the boss pulled a move like this, players would be shocked and, of course, die instantly.

Not to mention, this transformation wasn’t on every boss, which really threw players into a state of panic.

Sometimes the main boss would have two phases, other times they wouldn’t. Sometimes the mini-bosses had a second phase, sometimes they didn’t.

It was off-putting, to say the least.

But Kaisen wasn’t off-put or anything; he was actually smiling like a maniac.

If the vulture had gone down like that, he would’ve been greatly disappointed.

“Show me what you got.”

It was time for a second round.
