Taming The Villainesses novel Chapter 104

(EP-104.2) Eyes #5

104 – Piercing Eyes #5

The boss was a giant stone head.

It looked like the smudged head of the statue of liberty.

This thing was about four times the size of a normal human head and had a crude bronze crown.

It was a little different from what I thought...

But there was nothing wrong with being careful. After all, I could not tell how dangerous it was.

“It looks like it’s sleeping.”

Mirna nodded her head as I quietly cautioned.

“It’ll wake up if you initiate an attack. Unfortunately, we have no choice but to knock it down in order to open the box.”

It was just like what Mirna said.

You must beat the boss first to get the reward.

This was an easy-to-understand structure.

Seup-.

Taking a deep breath, I aimed my tail wand at the floating statue.

It would be best to take advantage while the monster was asleep and use my strongest attack right off the bat.

Hu-.

With an exhale, I could feel the magic power hidden in my body burning through my veins.

Pudung, pudung-.

As it coursed through my bloodstream, I vividly felt each and every one of my blood vessels down to my fingertips that had never been sensed before. I was completely immersed in my own rhythm.

Gooooo-.

There was a gradual sense of fervor, as I prepared to unleash my strongest attack.

With that in mind, I chanted vigorously.

─Paimon-!

Paaaaa-!

With that, a mass of Rank 4 magic power shot towards the statue.

Kwaaang-!

It eventually collided with the defenseless Boss, Observer, creating cracking noise.

━Gwong-!

With that, the statue slammed against the wall with a strange scream.

Kwajik, kwajik-.

The stone surface could not withstand such destructive power and began crumbling like breadcrumbs.

Still, it couldn’t finish °• N 𝑜 v 𝑒 l i g h t •° the job in one go. Soon, the head once again floated into the air, finally coming to its senses.

Seureuk-.

At the same time, the monster opened its stone eyelids, like that of a living being, and looked at me.

Degul, degul-.

Its dark pupils were exceptionally lively, which looked horrifying. This thing did not feel like a stone at all!

━Annihilate.

A thick, dull voice came from the stone statue. This was also the only one I could understand, even with my sensitive ears.

Still, I knew what it meant as I could see strange light gathering around the statue’s eyes.

Jiiing-.

“It’s charging magic in its eyes. Something big is coming!”

I guessed this was where ‘intense gaze’ came into play... _{fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm}

Angmar Robe. What a name. And it said that it was Solomon’s masterpiece, so did the Demon King make this himself?

Maybe that was why the effects were so good. Not only did it have fire protection, it also guarded against magic and curses.

I didn’t know to what extent the protection provided, but I particularly liked the fact that its efficacy could get strengthened depending on the wearer’s Rank.

“Can I have this robe?”

What if Mirna said no?

However, Mirna surprisingly gave it to me without much fuss.

“It’s been bounded to you the moment you touched it. That’s just the nature of magic artifacts.”

“Bounded”? Like a game item?

So I put on the robe, closing all buttons and tying the waistband.

The clothes suited me perfectly as if it was specifically made for me. I didn’t have to change its size, as it fitted like a glove.

Seeing this, Mirna nodded her head.

“Good, it’s almost like it was made just for you. This is pleasing to look at.”

I felt very satisfied with the acquisition of my new equipment. Now, it was time to leave this dreary room and head to Stage 4 tomorrow.

Thinking that there could also be a boss room on Stage 4, I couldn’t help but get excited from the potentially better rewards.

However, there was one problem.

The door wouldn’t open.

Mirna and I were basically trapped in this hidden boss room...

“Ha..., are you kidding-?”

Mirna did not hide her irritation as she touched the enclosed space.
