A mini-boss is not a floor boss, but it is still an existence with a considerably delicious taste if you defeat it.
Because I also earned the extravagant treasure chests they are guarding when I defeated them, I found it more useful to eat the corpses.
The treasure chests often held 【Ancient】-class magic items and even when I got unlucky, they still held a lot of magic metal ingots and a large amount of gold coins.
After killing the mini-bosses that caught my attention, I went ahead and advanced. In the middle of the 48th floor, I spotted a party of 8 people fighting. They were still considerably far away. Their party was composed of a vanguard consisting out of 3 people, a middle guard out of 2 people and their rear guard of 3 people.
The last party I saw nearly died trying to capture the 15th floor.
I’m guessing their leader is the 【Swordsman】 whose body is wrapped in crimson armor. He probably is either a 【Hero】 or a 【Great Hero】.
His presence closely resembled the Avenger and the Hero of Darkness, and by that I mean that he looks more delicious to me than a floor boss.
I observed the state of the fight because I was interested. The roaring downpour of the waterfall evaporated for several seconds because of the high temperature created by a blaze of hell fire that covered the leader as well as the large sword he carried. He vaguely resembled Minokichi-kun. There’s no doubt that he received a divine blessing of a 【God 】 from the Fire lineage.
Though I don’t understand it in detail, but it I wonder if it’s close to the 【God of Fire Arts 】 or the 【God of Flash Fires 】.
For sure he’s a considerably strong 【Hero】, possibly even a 【Great Hero】.
For him to dive into an 【Age of the Gods dungeon】, while having a poor compatibility with his blessing… I’m pretty sure he’s aiming to shut down his weak points.
He’s likely challenging this dungeon because you receive a rare ability related to water if you subdue a floor boss here under specific conditions.
If an enemy aims for your weak point by using an attack of the water/ice system, it’s possible that it doesn’t exhibit its original attacking power if you’ve already acquired the skill.
Even if you didn’t obtain the rare ability, you can still learn how to fight an enemy that you’re not compatible with, which is almost like raising a level. Though there’s still the apparent disadvantage, there’s still a big merit to it.
Having said that, it’s not something that can be easily done. To capture a dungeon that is overflowing with strong monsters that focus on attacking my natural weak point, is something quite difficult.
There are quite big obstacles to overcome, such as the floor bosses. In order to overcome them, a corresponding amount of ability is needed.
The ones that only depend on unskilled usage of their abilities, would end up being killed without mercy.
Even when speaking in terms of a 【Hero】 or a 【Great Hero】, when their time has come, they’ll still die in the end.
Putting aside this explanation…
