Reborn: I'm A Dragon Girl With An OP System
Chapter 180 First Real Boss Fight Part 2“Faith, are you trying to drain me of my mana!?” Grace yelled out at me while pouting. I chuckled and gave her a teasing smile before clapping my hands.
“Okay! Let’s get going!” I said as I turned around and jumped over everyone and began walking towards the entrance to the boss’s room. I could hear everyone scrambling behind me. Sophie and Sally were the fastest and quickly stood at my side. Adel and Sei were a little slower and stood a little ways back as they followed behind. Adel and I had a talk during these few weeks that we were stuck down here. She seemed very depressed about not being able to be of much help.
I took my time and began explaining to her the idea Sally had given me about creating a time spell that uses domains. After talking it through with her and explaining the idea out fully, she perked up a bit and began working on her own rendition. She said she wished to create it on her own and that she would come to me if she had any issues. I also told her to start casting other spells as well. She had the mana pool to really cast a lot of spells, so there was no reason to ignore the basics either.-.
It seemed she had been so single mindedly concentrating on her own special kind of magic she had been neglecting the other elements. Since then, her damage output has skyrocketed. And her mood has risen by a lot. But she also knows to be careful as well. She knows that if she gets overwhelmed and gets hurt or dies that we would be held responsible. Not only that, but this kingdom needs Adel. The people love her, and if she really were to get hurt under my care, not only would I but everyone in this team would end up being abandoned by the people and the kingdom.
While I do hate to think of things like this, it was a sad truth, which was why I always had Sei at Adel’s side, even if Sei would be more useful elsewhere. Adel also knows this and even apologized to everyone for it. Luckily our team has grown close to the point that we are like brothers and sisters now. We can joke around and poke fun at each other without issue and also help ease each other’s worries. No matter how I look at it, this team was lucky because we all got to meet each other. We were the ones who got stuck together and were now fighting on the front lines to gain freedom. But mostly, I did not wish to see Adel get hurt or anyone I cared about for that matter. Because I know that if she did get seriously hurt, I would probably lose my mind.
With everyone gathered at the boss room entrance, I decided to reiterate our plan. “We will be going in without a barrier and finding a secure location. Once we get a good spot, we will begin clearing out the hobgoblins. Once we clear them out, we will begin fighting the boss. I will put up a spell to try to keep the boss busy and hopefully force it to lose as much mana as possible while we work on the hobgoblins. Only when they are dead can we go all out on the boss! Is everything clear!?”
“Boss, you can count on us. We will roast those green bastards with no problems!” Steven shouted, causing everyone else to react and yell out. I nodded my head and turned towards the boss room.
“Then let’s do this!” I shouted and stepped into the room. The walls lit up with blue flames as the hobgoblins that were standing there with their heads lowered suddenly all woke up. Thirty adds in total, plus a boss with a crap ton of health. This was not going to be an easy fight.
<strong>””””””””””””Graaaaaaahhhhhhhh!!!!!””””””””””””””</strong>
As soon as we moved into the room, our entire group ran for the far wall away from the hobgoblins protecting the boss. But they still all instantly aggroed even though we were out of range. I guess not everything will go according to the novels I have read. With no other choice but to quickly move, I cast an ice wall to block their advance but as soon as I turned to tell everyone to run faster when I suddenly heard a loud explosion behind me.
“Faith, we need a barrier now!” Sophie yelled out. I quickly did as she said, casting a barrier around us. I watched as magic circle after magic circle appeared in the air all around my barrier, causing me to frown. “Spin! Twenty layers!” I added more and more barriers, all spinning in opposite directions as the entire room lit up with magic attacks. I never expected the Shaman Goblin to be so quick to react.
“Any idea how we can fight like this!?” Steven yelled out. With the current rate of magic circles appearing and how many there were, it was hard to even see what was going on outside the barrier, never mind being able to check the mana consumption of the goblin shaman. The hobgoblins also surrounded us but stayed just out of range of the barrier, far enough not to get caught up in the spell cast by the boss.
“The only way is to get the boss’s attention.” I really did not see any other option than this. “For now…. Let’s do this….”
Thousands of magic circles suddenly appeared in the air above my barrier, each one spinning with blazing fire. “Gates of Faithylon!” Since the shaman wants to fight fire with fire, let’s see how it deals with a piercing magic attack! I really couldn’t see where I was attacking, so I could only attack in a wide range and hope to disrupt the boss’s attack enough for us to move to a safer location where we were not surrounded.
“It’s working!” I yelled out when I saw the attacks on my barrier weakening. “Ice wall! Everyone move now!” Using an ice wall to block the hobgoblins to the front and sides, I formed a barrier on the other side to create a tunnel towards the back wall. Only when we can get in a decent formation without needing to worry about being attacked from all sides will we be able to start our counterattack.
