BXBX NOVEL Chapter 305 - The Aftermath Of The Battle
The three nodded in response. As much as I want to end the situation as soon as we can, we just have to deal with it as soon as we can.

...
In the end, the two hearts prove no challenge. The monsters that responded after the heart is damaged are not even showing any signs of strength and they are pretty weak in comparison to the first heart\'s assault. It ended with a much easier time for us and we managed to finish off the three hearts.
"Let\'s go. The whole place is not going to support anything now that it starts to decay the surroundings."
I pull the "Mass Teleport" scroll out and tear it off, activating the spell inside the scroll. Thankfully, there is no resistance from the spell and it didn\'t get canceled by anything. Of course, I can stop the jamming process if it happens but I didn\'t need to do that.
The surroundings started to get so chaotic that Tina felt nervous seeing the surroundings collapsing like a bunch of rotten meat bundled together poorly. She closed her eyes in hopes the teleportation occur as fast as it can.
In one second, we are transported back outside the cave on the island. Tina slumped to the ground while sweating profusely. It seems even though she poses a tough front, she still can\'t hide her fear in some things too.
"Stand up, I know you are afraid but I think we are not yet done."
"What do you mean, Master? We destroyed the hearts right?" Lucia is confused.
"No. I have a feeling the Ice Devilfish is still up to its last attempt. Let\'s hurry back to the cavern. We also must secure those two that are frozen in ice. They might be the key to the situation we are in."
We didn\'t waste time and rush back to the cave. Since the cave is clear and we have already gone through it once, we are able to easily go without exploring any places and just go straight to our target location. The cave is rumbling and there are even some stalagmites that get broken after a single shake. Not only that but the stalactites are also posing some danger on us since they are also falling from time to time and they sometimes almost hit us.
When we arrived again, we saw the Ice Devilfish still alive on where it appeared before. However, its color is now color grey and it\'s currently trying to revert to its natural color. I check the status and saw that it is almost dying. It\'s in its final phase of struggle.
"You three, try to find a way to thaw the ice of the two frozen people. Be careful about it so that you won\'t accidentally kill the people inside. I will be the one dealing against the boss."
The three nodded in response and as for me, I went straight to the boss and noticed that its body is emitting ice particles around its skin. It was like it is sweating but the sweat are all ice. However, I am not interested in how it is perspiring or whatever it was trying to do. Killing it is my top priority.
"[Target can be devoured.]"
I was ready to deal the final blow when the Versatile Weapon suddenly shows that the Ice Devilfish is also a candidate to be devoured.
"Seriously?"
The Ice Devilfish is still alive, however, it is already clinging to the remaining bits of its life. One strike and it will die. But since the Versatile Weapon can devour this enemy, does that mean devouring it will allow me to gain something that will benefit my Versatile Weapon?
"Heh, so that is what you are huh? You shouldn\'t have struggled too much and just let me do the job."
"[Proceed on Devouring? The Versatile Weapon will undergo a 48-hour sleep mode. In this scenario, devouring anything will be impossible before it will finish the 48-hour sleep mode. Continue?]"
"Proceed!"
The Versatile Weapon\'s black dragon appeared and this time, it is now showing its fleshy texture. However, it is no longer showing its big mouth alone. It opened its fleshy mouth and it suddenly formed into a three-pronged point mouth, expanding the radius of the mouth of the black dragon.
CHOMP!
In one single chomp, the imposing Ice Devilfish\'s head disappeared leaving the body alone. The main body fell as the head disappeared. However, the black dragon didn\'t even let the main body escape to the depths of the sea and in one swift action, the black dragon devoured the body in another bite.
The black dragon burps after the devouring process before it returned to its former state of a weapon.
Now I am developing an unknown fear of the Versatile Weapon. What if in the future the Versatile Weapon gets hungrier than ever? Will be at the very end, it will try to devour me in the process too? I don\'t know. However, I don\'t need to think much about it and continue to get stronger. No matter what the black dragon was, I needed its power to get strong enough to survive.
...
-Congratulations! You have killed the Ice Devilfish: Monster of Ice Hell!

...
A lot of words appeared before me after the devouring process ended. Although I am able to rise up from level 103 after killing the boss, the one that I am a bit perplexed about is the rewards I received after killing the boss.
[Angler that Fished in the Ice Hell]
Type: Unique Title
Method of unlocking: Kill the Ice Devilfish: Monster of Ice Hell.
Info: A title bestowed to the worthy angler who has conquered the mighty monster of the Ice Hell. The gods have bestowed a blessing to the conqueror by giving them the ability to be immune to Ice Damage and convert it to HP when attacked with an element of Ice type. Not only that but the residents of the Kingdom of the Deep Sea will now see you as a Hero and gain the highest affection. Can be stacked along with the other titles\' effects. Effects are still effective even if it isn\'t equipped.
The title alone is insane. I will now be immune to any ice damage and convert the damage dealt as recovery magic instead. This effect is pretty strong and if ever I face against an Ice enemy monster type, the enemy will not be able to kill me whenever it uses its ability. Not only that but players who are capable of using Ice Magic or weapons imbued with Ice Element will be practically not going to deal any damage against me.
As for the armor...
[Frozen Armor of the Ice Hell]
Type: Upper Equipment
Rarity: Legendary
Equippable at: Level 0
Level 130
Exp: 0/100,000
Stats:
All stats will gain 20 after equipping.
Unique skill
1. Growing Armor: (Passive): An armor that can grow alongside the owner. The more it gains more experience, the stronger the stats it gains.

Info: A legendary armor worn by the late ruler of the Ice Hell. After it was abandoned, it continues to wait for the next successor of the Armor and find the next heir that will be qualified to use it.
Note: Wearing this doesn\'t make you a demon lord. Your face alone is enough for you to be called an ugly demon lord.
...
The note of the armor is pretty sharp tongue and has openly mocked me but it\'s alright since in return, I received the first Legendary Armor in this current timeline! Not only that but it\'s a growing type of armor, meaning, this armor has a similar trait as the Versatile Weapon! The more the user grows, the stronger the armor becomes. Not only that, but I can equip it due to how it has no restrictions of levels!
