Spears of blinding celestial light, swords made of divine spirit frost, and drills made of rainbow divine barriers constantly pierced the chimera's amorphous body.
Alongside them, there was Goldie and Silver, who were constantly conjuring their strongest magic to weaken the chimera as much as they could.
Its HP was pummeling down rapidly, but there was something that was constantly forcing its HP to recover, and it was the strange forces of the portal it conjured.
This is the reason I asked Angelina, Nieve, and Brisingra to concentrate 100% on attacking it with long-ranged attacks so they wouldn't risk their lives.
Like this, they deal constant damage and make it so its regeneration cannot ever let it recover its HP to 100%
And the following step was…
Gandalf's help!
"This is a Skill I learned a while ago; I've barely used it because the opportunity never arose." Gandalf laughed. "It is something I once used to seal Malignant Corrupted Ghosts inside the Crypts where Erdrich got a quest!"
As he spoke, his incredibly vast Mana, even vaster after receiving all the buffs I had to offer, started to transform, becoming a hundred chains of blue and grey color.
"Admire the power of a seasoned Archwizard!" He laughed, rising his staff. "[One Hundred Magic Sealing Chains of Aether]!"
FLAAAASH!
The chains of blue and gray resonated with the strongest sealing magic I've ever seen so far, its form quickly wrapping around the countless hands, as Mark, Acorn, and I kept pushing them into the portal, forcing them to go back where they came from.
My swords constantly moved, slashing and piercing, while my spirits attacked with everything they had, bombardments of elemental attacks falling endlessly.
Mark's mighty strength, size, and spiritual flames all came together with his sword, piercing and stabbing the aberrant demonic hands, which were not even that bothered about it other than the fact they were being pulled back.
Acorn's fur protected him from the flames as he pushed with all the weight and strength his gigantic body had, his divinity somehow being one of the few things that managed to burn their skin…
"GRYYYAARGGH…!"
The Aberrant Chimera started to fall apart, the chains wrapping around its body as well and beginning to seal its powers temporarily, all while the demonic hands were almost back to where they came from.
"NO…! NOOOO!!! MY MASTERS…! THEY CREATED ME… FOR THIS… PURPOSE…!"
The bastardly creation gave a last scream of frustration, his countless red eyes all aiming at… me!
"YOUUUU! DIE!"
Hundreds of red beams combined together into a gigantic beam of pure crimson energy, charged with the otherworldly power coming from the portal it created!
TRUUUUUMMMM…!
"I can't catch a break, can't I?!"
I harnessed all my powers at once. The domain surrounding us disappearing as it fused completely into my body. All the vegetation, nature, spirits, everything!
FLUOSH!
My body started glowing with a new bright golden and green light, the power of [Divinity] within my Skills activating, as I infused it into my two swords.
"[Yggdragon's Divine Blade]!"
Both of my swords combined into a gigantic sword of wood and light, slashing through the beam of red energy cleanly.
SLAAAAASSSHHH!!!
But that wasn't all, the slashing wave continued its trajectory, reaching the chimera and the portal, splitting both apart as the chains already weakened and sealed their powers.
"ROOOOAARRRR!"
The figure of a gigantic roaring dragon made of wood and light emerged, roaring furiously as its gigantic jaws opened, engulfing everything within an endless explosion of light.
"MY… PURPOSE…!"
BOOOOOOMMMMM!!!
The light quickly turned the chimera into ashes once and for all, the portal closed as it died, and whatever was coming out of it, was forced to pull back.
[The [Otherworldly Portal] has been successfully closed.]
Darkness slowly took over the hall, the light dissipated quicker than I thought. I felt exhausted, falling into my knees, and gasping for air…
"Hahh… Hahh… T-That was… tough."
I looked around, making sure everyone was alright. Aside from Mark's wooden body having gained tons of weapons, which were regenerating quickly, they seemed fine.
"Phew…" Angelina sighed, sitting over the floor. "Now that was a tough hidden boss! For sure, hidden dungeons are really quite something!"
"Certainly…" Gandalf sighed in relief too, using his staff to rest a part of his weight. "Hahhh… Do you guys always fight things like these in the World Quests?"
"Wasn't the chimera you fought just as tough anyways?" I wondered, laughing a bit.
"Well it was tough, but we had the other two with us." Gandalf said. "Anikitty provides amazing buffs and debuffs, and Erdrich's army of undead and his skills are always useful to keep the enemy busy."
"Fighting such a tough foe with different companions was certainly a challenge by itself, hahaha…" Angelina giggled a bit.
"A-Ah… Anyways." Mark muttered. "Ugh… I'm hungry."
"Hahahah… I guess I'm a bit hungry too!" I smiled. "Let's talk about what happened here later I guess… How about we go back to Ambil and have a meal?"
"Yeah! I'm starving!" Acorn agreed immediately.
"I sure wouldn't mind eating something made by Lady Planta…" Brisingra nodded.
"Without a doubt… I'm so exhausted. Milady's food is always the most comforting." Nieve smiled.
"Okay, okay! No need to praise me so much." I sighed, standing up. "Let's go."
"Hahhh… so tiring! I don't want to do this anymore." Goldie cried.
"You barely did anything, sitting in the back and firing some water and light!" Said Brisingra.
"ROAR!" Silver agreed.
"W-What?! I did so much though! This is the most I've moved in… a few years." Goldie was embarrassed to elaborate.
As we moved upwards, the System finally fixed itself, as several messages popped up one after another.
