The boss was looking at them without making a sound. Those big, orange eyes stared at Mufag as if he were a small appetizer before he was going to devour the bigger ones.
Looking at those scary eyes made Mufag freeze in place. He was already shaking with despair when he looked at the pile of bodies, thinking that his parents would be there among the dead, but now a monster of this size appeared and stared at him with so much bloodlust that a hot liquid started to trickle between the little dwarf boy\'s legs.
Noah was leaving his flames burning at full power to have as much energy as possible to deal with this Boss. He was sure that the monster was a Boss, not to mention the size of it that was at least twice the size of a normal monster. The aura it gave off in a single word: "STRONG".
The Boss stared at the group for a few seconds. No one reacted; they stared at each other for at least 10 seconds until Noah\'s energy recovered over 80%.
*Bamf*
Without thinking twice he used [Hell Tunneling] to appear next to Mufag\'s and the lightning mage\'s side. Wrapping his hands around both of their waists, Noah, in a split second, took them both to where the rear was clustered.
By the time Noah exploded the first time, the Boss had already launched himself towards BigBull with bloodlust. By the time Noah disappeared from BigBull\'s side, taking Mufag and the lightning mage to the backline, the Boss had already run a quarter of the distance between himself and BigBull. When Noah returned to BigBull\'s side, it was only a fraction of a second before the Boss rammed them both.
At that moment, Noah clenched his teeth and used his dagger to try to hold the boss\'s momentum together with BigBull. The big guy next to him had already raised his own shield to try to hold the Boss using the Blessing of a Bull\'s Strength.
Needless to say, the two were unable to withstand the Boss\'s momentum. They were sent flying with the force of the impact from the Boss\'s big head before the Boss raised his head and opened his mouth, preparing to bite them in the air.
But Noah did not let that happen. In midair, he grabbed BigBull\'s arm and took him to the backline too.
*Bamf*
As they were moving in the air before being teleported, BigBull and Noah left the portal being hurled in the same direction as they were going before, almost hitting the wizards off guard.
This time the warriors didn\'t watch from a distance and, besides Noah and BigBull, they all ran towards the Boss to make sure he didn\'t focus on the wizards and kill everyone in the backline. The wizards and archers had their spells ready, just waiting for someone to catch the Boss\'s attention before using their own abilities. They couldn\'t attack before someone caught the Boss\'s attention, as the Boss could end up focusing on the backline and kill everyone there.
While Noah rolled around on the floor with BigBull, trying to recover from the strong impact, Jasper reached the Boss, and with a shout, he started jumping around the Boss and making small cuts on him with the Rank C dagger he had. Fortunately, while doing this Jasper discovered that the Boss was not as agile when in one place; he was only extremely fast when running in a straight line. He thought that if he kept the Boss in one place only, they would have a chance to kill it without any problems. Jasper\'s only mistake was to judge a Boss by normal standards.
The Boss, without thinking twice, looked at Marcel and the other warriors running towards him and looking like a wild boar, having the size of a buffalo, the Boss ran towards the warriors like a bull.
Marcel and the other warriors hardly had time to react when trying to jump to the side and dodge. The Boss had more space to run between Jasper and them, and with that, his speed was much greater than when he had rammed against Noah and BigBull. The warriors knew that they were unable to hold this Boss from running rampant and jumped aside to dodge the charge. Unfortunately a single warrior was unable to dodge and took the Boss\'s charge head on before being thrown into the air.
After throwing the warrior in the air, the Boss did the same thing he tried to do with Noah and raised his head with his mouth open, preparing to eat the human, but just like the last time, an explosion of fire appeared next to the person and disappeared with him before the Boss\'s mouth had managed to touch his flesh.
This time, Noah took the warrior to where the bodies of the other monsters were, since just as he imagined, the Boss had turned his attention towards him in anger. Noah had successfully gained the boss\'s aggro.
"ATTACK IT! ITS AGGRO IS ON ME!" Noah shouted at the others as he conjured two fireballs and threw them at two of the monster corpses next to him, as the other corpses that were burning had already been fully cleansed.
The Boss was very fast. The farther he went, the greater the speed he reached, as if his acceleration only depended on time without a maximum limit.
Seeing that the Boss was going to cause a disaster here, Noah teleported on top of the Boss immediately. Even though his teleportation was almost instantaneous, when he appeared on top of the Boss, because of the monster\'s high speed he had already moved a few meters forward, almost reaching the spot where Noah was. Since the other Blessed One had been teleported while being tossed in the air, the direction he fell after the teleport was not close to where the Boss was going.
Suddenly, when the Boss stopped where Noah was, several spells and arrows fell on him. But apparently those spells and arrows did almost no damage. They did nothing more than soften the Boss\'s skin, but without penetrating his thick leather. But this gave Noah an idea on what to do against this Boss.
As the other attacks caused very little damage to the Boss, his aggro still remained on Noah, as if his life\'s goal was to kill this human who stole 4 prizes from him.
The Boss\'s big, orange, and shiny eyes were turning slightly red. Noah believed it was most likely due to his anger.
As with the last time, the boss chased after Noah, but this time instead of teleporting a few meters away again, Noah put his hands on his back and stared at the Boss. The idea he had was very much based on the ability he had used against normal monsters.
Seeing the Boss barreling at a speed greater than 200 km / h (320 mph) in the direction of Noah, the other Blessed were starting to worry until they saw Noah\'s back and clearly understood what he was trying to do. At that point, they couldn\'t help themselves from thinking that Noah really knew how to use his own skill very well.
The Boss was thinking that this human had finally given himself up to death or simply that he couldn\'t disappear anymore, so he opened his mouth, preparing to bite Noah directly without even headbutting him, but that was exactly what Noah wanted, because when the Boss was only three feet from him, Noah teleported to where the other monsters\' corpses were and set two more of the corpses on fire. Teleporting over long distances was too expensive for Noah to support, especially since he left such a big gift in front of the Boss.
In the boss\'s view, when he was about to bite the troublesome human, suddenly the human disappeared in another explosion of flames, which infuriated the boss even more. But unlike the other times, that human\'s flames did not disappear completely when the human vanished; in the human\'s place was a sphere of flame floating in front of the Boss, and even with the Boss\'s quick reactions to try to close his mouth, some of Noah\'s flames still managed to get into his mouth.
For the Boss, feeling that flame enter his mouth was extremely painful. The pain was so great that the Boss\'s eyes which had become slightly reddened turned completely red immediately. Even though the flames themselves weren\'t doing very much damage, the pain was enough to make the boss go crazy.
With the anger reaching such a high level, the Boss gave a shout of madness and turned from side to side, looking desperately for Noah in order to kill that damned human.
But Noah, at that moment, was a little distracted reading a message that appeared floating in front of him which said something that he really wanted to happen.
[Congratulations user! Your [Hell Tunneling] skill has risen to level 02.]
