Chapter 83: A Formidable Boss! Incredible Attack and Defense!
....
As Seito's words fell, he activated Spatial Void Step!
Tatap-tap—!
Using pure speed, Seito closed the distance in a heartbeat, appearing directly in front of the behemoth's central face. A violet glow erupted from the blade of his Spatial Dragon Tachi.
"Dimensional Slash!"
BOOM!
[-6,579]
"!!!"
Seito's eyes widened at the damage number hovering above the Boss's head. His current raw attack power was pushing 40,000, and with the Spatial Dragon Tachi's multipliers, his actual output should have been closer to 400,000—especially when triggering a high-level skill like Dimensional Slash.
Yet, this Boss had only lost 6,500 HP. If any other player were here, they wouldn't even be able to bypass the creature's natural damage reduction.
Furthermore, Seito noticed something chilling during his dash: the Boss's gaze had never left him. Its eyes were tracking his every move. It could see his speed.
WHOOSH—!
The sound of air tearing apart filled his ears. The Boss swung a fist nearly a meter wide—an absurdly fast strike for its size.
Zip—!
Using Spatial Move, Seito blinked back to Maple's side just as the fist connected with the ground.
CRASH!!!
A massive crater, fifty meters deep, erupted where Seito had stood just a second ago. Debris and shattered ice rained down like shrapnel.
Seito's voice was grim. "Maple, you have my speed buff. Go in, try to farm your defense stat, and then get out immediately."
Though the Boss's eyes could follow his speed, its actual body was still lumbering. This was the perfect window for Maple to gain some "Destruction Growth" stacks, but she couldn't stay in the fray for long.
"Understood!" Guided by Seito's gale blessing, Maple charged.
"INSECT!!!" the Boss roared, slamming a fist down on her.
BOOM!
[-10,000+]
"Whoa!" Maple's shield shattered instantly, and she was sent skipping across the ice like a stone. Seito blinked behind her, catching her mid-air.
"Maple, you okay?"
"I'm fine," she said, shaking her head. She hadn't enabled the "Full Realism" mode, so she didn't feel the pain, but her expression was worried. "Seito-kun, my defense is over 40,000, but he bypassed it and still hit me for ten thousand. His attack power is insane!"
"Don't worry," Seito said, giving her a reassuring pat on the head. "I have the Kamui Space to negate his big hits. Stay back for now."
Reluctantly, Maple retreated. Seito turned his attention back to the ten-million-HP wall of meat. This was going to be a grueling battle of attrition, but as long as the Boss couldn't touch him, the advantage was his.
He summoned his second weapon: the Dimensional Rubik's Cube. With a thought, the cube deconstructed into twenty-seven independent blocks that swirled around him like a lethal orbit.
SWISH—! Seito lunged.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
[-3,258]
[-6,816]
[-4,826]
Seito danced beneath the Boss's legs, a whirlwind of steel and violet light, unleashing every offensive skill in his repertoire. Simultaneously, the floating cubes hammered at the Boss's joints from multiple angles. Enraged, the Boss tried to swat him like a fly.
"Hmph!"
Seito blinked onto the Boss's massive arm, plunging his blade deep into the flesh. He then sprinted up the length of the limb toward the shoulders.
[-3,792]
[-3,569]
Because the blade remained embedded while he ran, he effectively carved a massive, bleeding trench through the Boss's arm, causing a continuous bleed debuff.
The Yeti King was livid. A mere Level 40 human was making a mockery of him! Just as it prepared to retaliate, Seito appeared directly in front of its left head.
"Dimensional Slash!!!"
SPLURT!
[-42,599]
The blow struck the eye directly, dealing massive critical damage and blinding the left head.
"ARGH!! DIE! I'LL CRUSH YOU!!"
The Boss howled in agony, its body erupting in a brilliant ice-blue aura.
"ROAR!!!"
A suit of crystalline frost armor formed over its body as all three heads began spewing pillars of absolute-zero frost. A localized blizzard engulfed the battlefield.
Zip—
Seito vanished into the Kamui dimension just as the frost wave hit. The moment the skill ended, he reappeared right in front of the next head. The eyes were clearly the weak point. If he could blind all six eyes, the Level 100 King would be nothing more than a blind brawler.
In the distance, Maple's interface chimed.

[SunnyCat: @Maple, where did you and Seito find this quest?]
[Maple: Haruno-san! If you want to leech experience, come quickly, but don't get in Seito's way. We're fighting a Level 100 World Boss. He just hit me for 10,000 damage through my defense.]
[Empress: ???]
[Sora: !!!]
[Kanade: !!!]
[Sally: You're kidding, right? He broke through 10,000 of your defense?!]
The group was floored. Maple was the ultimate tank of the guild with a defense stat of 40,000+, yet a mob was shredding her.
[Sally: Maple! Send the coordinates! We're coming to leech that exp!]
A Level 100 Boss... if they shared that kill, their levels would hit the floor cap instantly. The guild was in an uproar.
