Chapter 46 Boss Room
The deeper Victor went, the more group fights he got in, but unlike the first time he faced off against the three chimeras, the other times were different. At first Victor wanted to add at least one of the chimeras to his legion, so he had to keep the bodies in good condition as the undead will remain the same as before they were reborn back to the world, sustaining any prior injury before it they are were reborn. But now, since Victor could not revive the chimeras due to specific conditions, he had no need to keep their bodies preserved.
“Killing these guys is becoming easier and easier.” Victor said while standing before five rotting bodies of chimeras.
The monsters might have been level 90, but it seems his rot bite was still stronger. There were some cases of chimeras that could regenerate themselves, and there was one with a very high immunity that reduced the effects of the rot bite.
This entire floor was unlike the rest in many ways. Unlike the ones before this, it was a direct path forward without branching out in any parts. The only thing that stopped someone like Victor with excellent vision both in the dark and in lit areas was the single fact that the elevation varied from place to place. If it wasn’t so, he would be able to see far into the floor and know what awaits him.
Unlike what Victor had thought, the only monsters in this floor were the chimeras, and they themselves were like four creatures in one, so it made sense that they were the only ones present.
It took a while, and about a couple hours in Victor was approaching the end of the floor, and to his surprise after descending the plight, he arrived at the foot of an enormous door. It was clear, this was the boos room.
‘There isn’t even going to be a last floor? Just straight to the boos room I see.’ Victor said in his mind as he stared at the door for a while. There was sure to be preparation as he was about to face the boss of the entire dungeon. 𝐟𝘳𝑒𝗲𝘸e𝒃𝘯𝒐𝐯e𝚕.c𝒐𝒎

“So it has finally arrived at the last floor? Hmm.” A voice said from a dark room as it thought to itself in solitude. Whatever was in the dark room was beginning to think to itself that it had allowed Victor too far into the dungeon without doing much to obstruct his way. Though it did a bit to alter the difficulty of the floor for him, it seemed it didn’t matter in the end, as he was still standing before him.
“Seems I’ve been only moderate before. I’ll actually try a little now. Besides, no one is stronger than I am. Not in this dungeon.”
...
Victor stood before the large door not opening it and before his eyes was his status panel. It was evident that he would have to empower himself as much as he could be entering the room.

Victor studied his status plate for a while, but he couldn’t just add points to random stats. If the creature inside was a slow one, the he automatically wouldn’t need to add much to speed, but if it wasn’t them he would need to. The problem now was that he had no way to know what kind of creature was at the other side of the door before him. The best choice in this situation was to go to the other side first and confirm the kind of minster it was before he increased anything.
‘I hope its not an irritable monster that attacks immediately.’ Victor thought to himself. Boss monsters are normally calm and king-like monsters, so the one behind the door shouldn’t be the crazy type, at least not at first sight.
Victor turned to the door to face it properly with a calm expression and state of mind. He pushed out his arms to push the door, and in the most comedic way possible, it remained shut and wouldn’t even bulged. This was after Victor had put a serious expression on his normally plain expression, getting ready for what was to come, only for the door to be so stiff.
‘Is this a Japanese TV show or something? What kind of situation is this?’
While Victor had given up on trying to open the door after testing his axe on it alongside a couple powerful punches, the enormous door swung open on its own without him touching it. It was kind of weird and angering, but Victor didn’t feel much anger as it vanished after a second after it appeared. He waited for the door to open completely to steal a glance inside the room, but it was filled with darkness too much for him to even see anything.
“Mystery right out the bet. This will be fun.” Victor said sarcastically as he walked into the room.
As soon as he did, the door behind him that had taken forever to open shut itself as fast as it would take one person to slap a mosquito to death. The darkness within the room became even more prominent as Victor couldn’t even see his own feet, and for whatever reason, his senses weren’t working properly. He couldn’t hear a single thing, and his sense of position and direction was also off. Seeing as he had experienced being in a totally dark environment before, these other effects seemed totally unnatural.
‘This situation just screams bad, all over.’
Though Victor couldn’t see what was before him, he made sure to remain vigilant in case anything unexpected happened, but then, gems embedded in the walls began lighting up the place with dim lighting, though some were brighter than the others, the overall lighting was like that of the moon.
Victor looked around to survey the area and layout of the floor, and just as he expected from a boss room, it was enormous and spacious. The size of the room alone caused him to wonder the type of monster he would be facing, though, this thought was answered rather immediately.
While Victor walked further into the room, the first thing he saw was a tail, and a big one at that. By the time the crystals around the entire room had completely lit themselves, Victor caught site of the monster lying in the deeper part of the room. The monster was a complete vicious looking one with two heads. It was at least two metres in height while lying down, and its length complemented its size well.
‘A dragon?’ Victor thought to himself.
The creature before him resembled a dragon to the last detail as far as Victor was concerned. If not for the two heads and the other fact that it was wingless, he would have concluded that it was a dragon. Victor had come to a complete stop as soon as the lights revealed the creature’s form before him and just studied it.
Victor had his suspicions, but regardless of what he thought, it was important to ask the system about things like these instead of just guessing blindly.
[Twin Headed Drake ‘Ramok – Level 120]
‘A named monster, and that level.’
Though Victor had taken on strong monsters before with levels way above his, this was a monster whose level went beyond the hundreds, and if he remembered correctly, wasn’t the strongest human after the beastly one just a level 117? Or was it 127? He couldn’t remember, but the point that this monster was unreasonably strong still remained.
Coupled with the fact that it had a very high percentage of dragon bloodline in it, or was it even a dragon itself? Victor knew that its strength would be doubled if not, then close to it. Big creatures like these aren’t classified in the speed department, Victor thought. This meant he had to add more points to strength instead of his speed and the others. His senses were pretty sharp, so he didn’t need that either, and his mana was adequate, at least it speculated it would be enough to deal with the drake.
‘Why hasn’t it attacked though? Do I have to trigger it first?’ Victor thought.
..
Strength: 150 (7) >> 210 (7)
remaining stat point: 92 >> 32
.. 𝘧𝗿ee𝚠𝙚𝙗𝑛o𝚟𝐞l.𝐜૦𝗺
He quickly added 60 points into his strength, sending a rush of empowerment running through his entire body. After increasing his stats before with his strength of 150, his body had also changed in a way to accommodate that strength and make sure that it at least could bring out the full power of what it was capable of. Victor who was like a normal sized man in the lean department became quite buffed and muscular as the ripped muscles pierced his skin surface. If anything, he now resembled a human sized Hulk with a little bit less muscle mass and more toned muscles.
With the remaining 42 points, Victor was thinking an idea up in his head of how he was going to wake the drake up, but then another idea came to him.
“System, how many stat points are needed to upgrade the skill ‘Touch of Death’?” Victor asked the system.
[30 stat points]
