Chapter 40: Chapter 40 – Final Boss is ?

Eclipse knelt on one knee before his master, his arms extended to receive the gifted dagger. Bong’s eyes held a mixture of pride and satisfaction as he presented the dagger. The dim dungeon seemed to hold its breath as Eclipse’s fingers closed around the hilt, sealing their commitment in the shadows that danced around them.

“This dagger, it shall heed your command. With your will, you can summon it, and as your connection to it deepens, so too shall its power. May it serve you well,” Bong conveyed, his tone a mixture of guidance and encouragement.

“Master, your gift humbles me. I shall wield this dagger with utmost dedication and loyalty, just as I serve you,” Eclipse responded, his voice resonating with gratitude and determination.

With the newly forged Abyssal Slicer Dagger in his possession, Eclipse and Bong stood prepared to confront the final boss of the Dungeon.

The dungeon had remained uncleared for a long time due to Baron Valerian’s devious plan. He had stationed his assassins near the final boss gate to stop and kill any adventurers attempting to clear the Dungeon. The truth behind the sinister events that unfolded within the Dungeon’s depths remained shrouded in darkness, a grim secret that only those who ventured into its depths could comprehend.

“Very well, then shall we open the gate and see what lies behind the final boss gate?” Bong said to Eclipse with a mixture of curiosity and determination.

Eclipse held the hilt of the newly given dagger tightly, his eagerness to test its power evident. As Bong opened the final boss gate, their eyes widened in shock.

In the heart of the room, an agonizing spectacle unfolded. The final boss of the Dungeon, stood trapped by dark magic chains. The chains coiled around her body, like a sinister dance that only deepened her suffering. Each link seemed to pulse with dark energy, piercing her flesh and drawing beads of blood, each droplet of blood falling to the floor in a macabre rhythm.

Her clothes, once regal, were torn and frayed, evidence of her suffering. Her body bore wounds, a testament to her pain and defeat. Her eyes, which used to show strength, now looked dull and defeated.

In the dim light, her red eyes, once fierce and commanding, had faded into a subdued hue, as if the fire within her had been extinguished. Even her fangs, which once symbolized her fearsome nature, were now broken, a cruel metaphor for the loss of her power.

Her white hair, stained with blood, hung messily around her face. Her expression held shame, pain, and acceptance of her situation.

“Master? I don’t understand. Is this the typical situation for the final boss in a dungeon?” Eclipse asked, his confusion evident on his face.

Bong didn’t immediately reply to Eclipse. Instead, he stood there in deep thought, his gaze fixed on the pitiful sight before them.

He observed her condition closely, his expression a mix of awe and sadness. He could sense her pain, and it weighed heavily on him. She was one of the few remaining vampires, and her suffering struck a chord within him.

Tears welled up in his eyes, the pain of her suffering piercing his very soul. Bound in chains, her lifeless eyes seemed to silently plead for release, a silent cry for salvation. Bong’s expression mirrored a mixture of awe and sorrow as he gazed upon her. He could feel her pain as if it were his own, a connection forged through their shared existence as vampires.

The scene stirred memories of another, Lysander Drakonov, a fellow vampire who had suffered a similar fate. The recollection of Lysander’s agony, his imprisonment in a tower for millennia, haunted Bong’s thoughts. The parallel between the two situations resonated deeply within him, a reminder of the complexities and sacrifices that came with their supernatural existence.

“Master, what has befallen you? Is this her doing, some strange spell cast upon you? I shall put an end to her! How dare you…” Eclipse’s concern was evident as he assumed that his master’s distress was a result of a spell cast by the weakened final boss. He shifted into a defensive stance, ready to take action and protect his master from any perceived threat.

Bong, without uttering a word, signaled Eclipse to halt and remain where he was. Their thoughts seemed to intertwine, and Eclipse comprehended that there was no spell cast upon his master. The silence between them spoke volumes, conveying a shared understanding beyond the need for verbal communication.

“Eclipse, could you wait outside for a while? Don’t worry about me; I just need some time alone,” Bong requested. His tone carried a hint of vulnerability and the need for solitude.

“But Master, leaving you alone here… it’s just…” Eclipse’s voice wavered, his expression torn between concern and duty.

“Eclipse, my command holds weight. Trust that I have my reasons,” Bong’s voice carried a firmness, a blend of understanding and authority.

After hearing this, Eclipse didn’t utter another word. He reluctantly left Bong with the chained vampire and exited the boss room, his thoughts filled with a mixture of worry and respect for his master’s wishes. Witness the debut of this chapter, unveiled through Ñôv€l–B1n.

“System, is there any way to break this spell?” Eclipse inquired, a sense of urgency in his voice.

[ALERT]

[Master, I’m truly sorry, but to break this spell, you need a specific skill. Unfortunately, you don’t possess the required skill to dispel this curse]

“Find me a way to break this curse, no matter the cost,” Bong’s voice thundered with anger and authority. His eyes widened in disbelief, and his usually composed demeanor cracked, revealing the depth of his turmoil. He stood tall and resolute, ready to defy fate itself to save the tortured soul before him.

[ALERT]

[Master, you have everything in your arsenal. You need to find someone who has a skill to dispel curses. Your skill, Gluttony, will absorb it]

After reading the message from the System, Bong’s eyes filled with joy and hope. He realized that he needed to find someone capable of breaking the powerful curse. However, he also recognized that to counter such a potent curse, he would require an equally strong curse-dispelling skill. This led him into a deep contemplation, wondering where he could find such a creature or person possessing such abilities.
