They were inside. The last boss room.
With 40% HP, which was the highest among the three and belonged to Kai. Second was Xterminate07 with 34% HP, and then Bella with below 15% HP. Needless to say, they were no boss-defeating party.
The boss was seated atop a polished white bone throne, looking straight at them.
It was a colossal alpha beast—a terrifying hybrid of a horned bear, wolf, and bull. Its muscular body was coated in black fur streaked with blood-red runes, with massive spiraling horns and eyes like burning embers. There was a corrupted rune-core glowing with dark energy in its chest.
An enormous, sharp, white bone sword was buried in the ground beside the throne, looking ominous.
Looking straight at them with its burning eyes, the boss grabbed his sword and stood up. The guy was walking with all the patience in the world towards them, breaking from his stupor—Kai shook the two beside him, grabbing their shoulders.
"We have time, heal up."
