35

As soon as the Four Seasons Golem’s body was fully formed, it began to rampage like an angry giant.

As expected of a being made of countless iron filings, it surrounded itself with sharp iron vortices and attacked the nearest human.

There was a loud bang as Teresa’s hammer and the bastard’s fist met.

The warrior skill “Taunting Strike” instantly increases the enemy’s aggro.

But on the other hand, Teresa was wounded by the “Seasonal Whirlwind” that the golem was wearing in return.

“Ugh!”

“This kid is the worst match for me!”

The water supply situation was no different.

No, if anything, he was having even more trouble than Teresa.

Even if you over-invest in strength, a warrior is still a warrior.

Teresa was much more robust than the inspector, Sangsu.

“You two! Can’t you do it properly? Your blood is running out really fast right now!”

But the busiest one was not them, but Soso.

Just by getting close to the golem, the health of the two dealers would quickly drain away like water from a bottomless pit, so it was inevitable that the party’s healer would have a hard time.

Of course, Dojin wasn’t in an easy situation either.

The long-range dealer sniping pattern “Seasonal Wave”, which corresponds to the pattern “Seasonal Whirlwind” that was intended to harass melee dealers, was rushing towards him.

‘I get cursed at for telling ranged dealers to avoid things like this.’

As he ran, countless waves of iron filings covered both sides of his vision and aimed for Dojin.

This pattern targets and attacks the person furthest from the boss.

So the original strategy was for a class like a quick thief to move around the outskirts where other party members cannot be affected and take the aggro.

But right now, there is no one to take on that role.

“shit.”

Dojin, who had been complaining quietly, leapt forward.

The place where I accelerated and stepped was a safe zone created by the intersection of large and small waves crashing in dizzyingly.

Card grab.

A wave of iron filings passed by precariously, making a creepy sound.

A noise so horrible it can’t be compared to the sound of fingernails scraping against metal.

“It would be like a meatball that has been ground up right away when it touches the ground.”

After killing the tension with a silly joke.

Dojin ran again as soon as the road opened up.

Card grab.

The waves rush in, turning again.

Dojin read the path of the waves again.

I draw a lot of straight lines in my head.

‘Far away.’

Based on his numerous experiences, Dojin quickly predicted the safe zone.

At the same time, I know that my current self will not be able to get there within the time limit.

What should I do in this situation? If I keep thinking the same thing and take it easy, I’ll die.

We can only survive if we take action to resolve the crisis that is at hand.

‘In the past, I would never have used this method.’

Dojin weaved magic to find a way to survive.

A hand reaching out towards the nearest wave.

《Rock Shield》

One of the magics learned when learning curses, ‘Defense Magic’, which was something I wanted to use in my past life but couldn’t, was cast.

With a “kwadduk” sound, the ground rose up and blocked Dojin’s path like a shield.

Phew.

The waves crashed against the “rock shield” and spread out in all directions like waves.

But that was only for a moment.

In front of the boss pattern boasting tremendous attack power, the 3-star defensive magic was just a thick sheet of paper.

A shield made of earth shatters into pieces in an instant.

However, Dojin’s original purpose was to temporarily disrupt the movement of the waves.

To create an artificial safety zone by misaligning the timing of the waves crossing each other.

“Whew, I almost died.”

Maybe it’s because the whole world is covered in iron filings, but the smell of blood seems to be vibrating.

My heart feels chilled by the waves of iron passing by my nose.

I should say it made my hair stand on end.

So Dojin was good.

It’s great to hunt monsters, grow, and earn money through them, but the real fun of the game lies in the thrill.

To feel the thrill of this moment, to seek and experience something more, to be covered in pleasure hormones secreted from the brain, we grow up.

Dojin’s legs moved again.

Although he lacked agility and speed, Dojin, who had high vitality and endurance thanks to his physical strength stat that was not typical of a wizard, was able to reach the target point without panting.

This was where the bright red jewel was created.

Dojin quickly put his hand on the jewel.

[The condensed fire mana has been released.]

[You and your party members are granted the “Guardian of Fire”.]

[From now on, a hot atmosphere will begin to rise around you.]

Hwaak.

The mana containing the fire energy that had been concentrated in the jewel was released.

The change was immediately noticeable.

The golem’s body and the waves, and other things made up of the four seasons, began to glow red.

Unlike Dojin and his group who were protected by the “Guardian of Fire”, he was directly exposed to the rampaging fire mana.

“Huh?”

The party members except Dojin were startled by the sudden change.

I was already having a hard time, so I was surprised when the boss suddenly turned red.

“Wait, something feels weird. The boss’s movements seem to be slowing down? You guys aren’t even losing blood!”

But the confusion was short-lived.

Soso sharply calmed Teresa and Sangsu.

As she said, the golem that had been running wild was now trembling and slowing down as if in pain.

“No, it’s melting!”

As Teresa said, the giant made of iron powder was melting.

To be exact, the body of the guy, which had been in the shape of a lump of iron, was melting and hardening repeatedly, combining into one mass.

After the change is over.

What had seemed like a mass of black fog now resembled a lump of red iron.

Dojin, who had confirmed the scene from afar, thought as he looked at the party members who had started fighting again.

‘I need to move on quickly.’

This is good news for melee damage dealers as the boss no longer has a tornado around him.

However, the boss in that state has its attack power greatly increased.

As if to prove it, Teresa, who had taken a defensive stance with her hammer, was seen flying away and rolling on the ground.

A tank would have held out much more easily, but even warriors who grew up aiming to be dealers had their limits.

‘Now is not the time to worry about others.’

Dojin turned his gaze straight ahead.

It was to focus on the obstacles right in front of us.

Here too, the waves were gone, but instead, the ‘fire spirits’ that were born under the influence of fire energy were the problem.

In short, it means that there are a lot of ‘cowards’.

“I’ve heard that there are a lot of enemies… but at this level, this is just too much.”

At a glance, it looks like there are more than 50 of them.

This means that this isn’t a trick that was released to be caught.

“Then we just have to clear the way.”

《Ice Arrow》

Unfortunately, among the magic I had learned, there was no water attribute magic that was useful for ranged attacks.

So, Dojin fought the approaching molten spirit by continuously firing “ice arrows” in frustration.

Beep-

Enemies rushing in with a sound like hot iron fell to the ground with a thud as soon as they met the ice.

Even if you don’t die, you will be temporarily inactive when attacked by an attack with the opposite attribute.

Meanwhile, Dojin quickly dug into the gap he had created.

A situation where you could be eaten at any moment by those who rush in from all directions if you hesitate or stop for even a moment.

Dojin ran without a single mistake, intercepting small targets that rushed at him at the same time and avoiding everything that could be avoided.

widely.

“Game over, kids.”

Eventually, Dojin’s hand touched the blue jewel.

[The mana of the condensed ice has been released.]

[You and your party members are granted “Ice Guardianship.”]

[From now on, a cold air begins to rise around you.]

Mana with the opposite attribute to fire was released.

Crunchy.

At the same time, the spirits of the iron water that had been relentlessly pursuing Dojin and jumping up to attack him froze and fell.

Kookungkookkook.

Dozens of chunks of metal collide with the floor simultaneously, creating sound and vibration.

Dojin walked between the cold, pitch-black corpses.

It was to finalize the ending.

“Lesaya!”

When I was concentrating, sounds that I had not heard before entered my ears.

A tearing scream. The voice mixed with tears was Soso’s.

The desperate call of Teresa, whose one leg was caught in the golem’s fist.

Sangsu tries to stop Soso from jumping in, but Soso scratches and hits him without mercy.

“Run away, Kim So-so! If you let her go, you die, Kwak Sang-soo!”

Teresa, who was very scared herself, shouted at her friends to run away.

In a world that was infinitely similar to reality, the fake death that was approaching was scary even if you knew it was fake.

Teresa squeezed her eyes shut, bracing herself for the psychological shock of her impending death in virtual reality.

At that moment.

《Rock Shield》

Dojin’s magic blocked her path.

Kwaang. The rock shield that appeared in the air shattered into pieces with the golem’s fist, creating a loud noise.

Ouch. A gasp of surprise.

The returning gazes.

Dojin answered their gazes.

With a golden mana that sways without words.

Dojin sees the enemy.

Giggling.

The bright red body was cooling down in an instant.

Crunchy.

You can see the overheated iron quickly cooling down and cracking forming.

Fire and ice.

The defensive ability of a boss exposed to two opposing energies will infinitely converge to zero.

It’s deal time.

《Window of the Earth》

Kaang.

The “Spear of the Earth” that rose from the ground pierced the bastard’s abdomen.

The boss, who was about to attack Teresa until the end, hesitates and becomes rigid.

Dojin’s magic was continuously applied to that stiff guy.

Until the moment when the dungeon master becomes completely silent.

[‘s boss, ‘Concentrated Magical Iron Golem’ has been defeated!]
