Warlock of War: My Ares System

Damn unique skills…

Unique skills are so annoying when they're actually used, and it's not like they're limited to dungeon bosses, so everybody is free to feel the pain.

But slimes are the only monsters who don't have unique skills… Why? Well, I have no idea.

All of a sudden, the skeleton began to shake, and the slime on its body began to fall off of its bones like meat melting off a skeleton.

If the slime was actual flesh, I probably would've thrown up.

Once all the slime had disappeared into the rocky floor, the skeleton laid there, its spine completely exposed… but we knew better than to fall for such an obvious trap.

BOOM

Two arms sprouted from under the original two arms and the bones began to rapidly produce even more toxic slime.

The smell of something burning filled the room, and as soon as I looked towards the ground, I noticed it was the rocky floor that was melting.

A trail of smoke followed the small crater which was forming under the skeleton boss, who was slowly standing up.

The glow in its eyes shifted to a dark red, and the slime coating its bones rapidly expanded like a balloon being filled with air.

We both ran back towards the throne and then slid right behind it, just managing to avoid the burst of green slime, which was now melting everything within the cave.

Squish

The slime beside us, which was slowly filling the space behind the throne, wiggled and squirmed as if it were alive.

"HUFF HUFF HUFF… Once it shrinks back, run out the left side of the throne," The leader says, and I immediately got the gist of what he wanted to do.

"Alright. This better work," I muttered.

Squish Squish Squish…

Suddenly, the sound of the slime moving and squirming around stopped…

SQUISH SQUISH SQUISH

And then resumed as it began to pulsate like a heart pumping blood throughout a physical body.

ROOOOOOOAAAAAAR

A gust of wind suddenly sucked in the slime, and just as we heard the roar of the massive skeleton, I ran out the left side of the throne.

The cave had basically turned into a desolate wasteland with just the sole throne towards the back, standing sturdier than ever.

Also, there was absolutely no light as all the glowing green orbs lining the cave had been consumed by the slime.

FWOOSH

A gust of wind blew past me as I glanced at the massive skeleton who now had two arms, and its slime had also turned a bright red, similar to its glowing eye sockets.

​ In addition, the glowing red slime provided just enough light for it to create a demonic appearance which sent a shiver down my spine.

Though I already knew the skeleton didn't have eyes, I couldn't help but shake the feeling that it was observing me despite its enraged state.

And soon, the feeling left as the skeleton tried to predict the leader's next move.

BAM

It swung its arm towards the right side of the throne but predicted incorrectly as we had predicted his prediction.

Upon hearing this missed move, the leader rushed in my direction before splitting off from me in a perpendicular line.

The skeleton then swung towards him as he himself was charging at the skeleton.

My spear had so many cracks I already knew it was going to be unusable after this battle, but I ignored it painfully as I prepared my next step.

BAM BAM BAM

The skeleton released a flurry of attacks, seemingly eight fists approaching the leader as he stumbled back.

He was having trouble keeping up with the fast-paced battle with no tanks, but his reaction time was just enough… or so I thought.

As the man noticed he was able to just barely dodge the skeleton's attacks, he didn't want to risk it, so he jumped back a few feet, getting out of range, but that was his mistake.

In an instant, two craters appeared beneath the skeleton's feet, and he burst towards the leader who couldn't keep up.

BAM

He was smacked across the cave, landing on the seat of the massive throne.

And before he could recover and stand up, the skeleton smashed him into the seat with a balled fist that was so strong it cracked it.

BOOM BOOM BOOM

Chunks of the throne began to fall off of it, landing on the rocky floor with booming crashes that almost resonated with the skeleton's flurry of punches.

"That damn old man," I smirked after getting into place and holding the canteen of water next to my lips.

"ZAHAHAHAHA!" I hear the leader laugh before revealing himself to be on top of the backboard of the throne.

He was crouched like a ninja on top of it, and just as the skeleton noticed, he stopped his flurry of punches, just managing to keep the throne from collapsing into itself.

FWOOSH

The leader threw the spear up at me, who had jumped as high as I could into the air, even using the wall to gain just a few more feet.

I was at level with the skeleton's neck.

SHING

I caught the spear with my right hand, and then water spewed out of my mouth, coating it as I spun around in the air.

The skeleton, already pretty aware of our capabilities, decided not to underestimate me and turned its body towards me.

FWOOSH

With the momentum of the spin, I threw the spear back towards the leader who had jumped into the air, building up so much momentum it looked as if he could crack a mountain.

A few tendrils tried to splash acid onto it as it passed by its face... and this was a smart move due to it no longer having a protective coating of [Tangible Bloodlust].

SHING

But, the splashed slime slid off due to the help of the water, allowing it to slip through and allow the leader to catch the spear.

Realizing the skeleton couldn't protect its nape by turning around, it tried to cover it with its hand… but the leader was too strong.

BAM CRACK

The spear had penetrated the hand and spine… completely crumbling the long bone into pieces.
