Omega Summoner

Chapter 32: Tales from the Crypt Part 2

The spear hit Kanlaon and sent him flying towards the wall and pinned him in it. The spear pierced through him and he keeps struggling to take out the spear that pierced his torso. Adrian took this chance to attack the unarmed dullahan. He thought to deliver as much damage as possible before the dullahan manages to retrieve its spear.

As he was a few inches in delivering the punch, the dullahanʼs spear flew towards it spinning in a circle motion. Kanlaon roared as if giving Adrian a warning and he managed to catch Adrianʼs attention. Adrian was the spear flying towards him and managed to dodge by using his wings and flew quickly to the side. Due to the abrupt nature of his movement, he lost balance and tumble a few feet away.

Adrian managed to recover his footing but the dullahan caught its spear and is now again in its battle stance. Adrian took a peak at Sirius and Kanlaonʼs HP.

Name: Sirius

Lvl: 13

HP: 232/500

Name: Kanlaon

Lvl: 9

HP: 30/700

Sirius and Kanlaonʼs HP is low. Adrian thought it was now the time to use the skill Invigorate. His soulbounds gained back half their HP and increased their damage output. The dullahan then charged at Adrian which switched his aggro to him because of the healing skill. Seeing the dullahan charging towards him Adrian detonated a spacemine, attempting to distract the dullahan but failed the attempt.

The dullahan still charging towards him, Adrian tried to dodge but was struck by the sudden fore swing.

-75 HP

Adrian was shocked because the damage was not that high compared to what Kanlaon and Sirius got dealt with. Adrian then started to deduce why did the damage reduce. He recalled that when the dullahan counter attacked Kanlaon, it was after it blocked his breath attack. It also attacked Sirius after it was bombarded by the damage.

It seems this dullahan has an ability to empower its attacks depending on the damage it has blocked or accumulated. Now having an idea on what to do, Adrian commanded his soulbounds to use the hit and run tactic instead of ganging up on the dullahan. Adrian blasted mana orbs in order to deal bits of damage and to distract the dullahan since Sirius deals the most damage with Kanlaon being second.

Due to the pressure of switching damage dealers, the dullahan was not able to pick a target easily and only dealt small bits of damage to Adrian and his soulbounds. Now having a working tactic, it only took a matter for time before the dullahanʼs HP became low.

Monster: Dullahan (Mounted)

Lvl: 18

HP: 100/2000

When the dullahan had only a hundred HP left, its spear became blood red in color and the dullahan swung it in a 360° sideways motion and a red crescent wave of energy was sent and it hit Adrian and his soulbounds scraping of a flat value of fifty percent their total HP.

It seems it was like a last final move of the boss before dying as Kanlaon finished it with its breath skill killing the dullahan. The dullahan gave tons of experience points as expected for a unique boss monster.

[Player Equinox has leveled up]

[Sirius has leveled up]

[Kanlaon has leveled up]

[Kanlaon has leveled up]

Kanlaon jumped to level 11and it was now five meters long which had Adrian shaking his head figuring if Kanlaon would continue to grow longer. If Kanlaon did grow longer per level up will he not become to big to bring to dungeons but would be pretty bad-ass as a mount.

Now that Kanlaon was level 11 it now have stats but Adrian was disappointed that it did not evolve but would investigate the reason after the dungeon. Adrian gladly inspected Kanlaonʼs stats and holy mother of all, it was OP. He also checked Siriusʼ stats to check on his progress as well.

It seems Kanlaon was more of a wizard though something like a buff muscular wizard. Sirius is more like a warrior that specializes in speed instead of defenses. Now Adrian really needs a summon that could be a supporter or a healer. He now realize the need for him to have one because boss monsters usually have inflated stats to deal with player parties.

He could either join his best friendʼs party but due to the uniqueness of his circumstance, it now became difficult to help him in power leveling. He was still in a trance until the dullahan started talking to him which snapped him out of it.

” Thank you, Young Asmodian for releasing me from my curse. I am just a wayward warrior that has lost his way. If you choose to help me in my quest for revenge, I would be very happy. Will you choose to strike my core and end my suffering? I do not want to be trapped here any longer.” The dullahan said but more like the voice was not spoken instead was heard inside Adrianʼs head.

Adrian thought for a second if he should help the dullahan that was a pain to combat. He looked around to check if there was loot that dropped when they defeated it but there was not which means the loot will drop when he strike the dullahanʼs core but if he did accept his request maybe just maybe. He pondered if he should accept the quest that this dullahan wants to give him.

It also seems that this was not the end of the dungeon since he has not encountered the gravekeeper.

”Ok, then I will hear your request” Adrian said unsure if he would ever regret this decision. He did not know that this decision was the start of his rise to become the no. 1 summoner in Pandemonium.
