This time around, Jack and pet precisely knew what to do.
They ran past the piranhas. Moon Moon even tried its paw at slapping them away from atop its master's head. It was akin to a guardian deity enforcing judgment on the silly fishes.
They ran through the wolf groups. Jack would even exaggeratedly play around. "Oh no, I managed to kill the other two wolves, but this one will devour me! Please help me, someone!"
Then just as the wolf would pounce at him, he'd quickly chug a potion, wink, and behead the attacker. "Just kidding, tehe" =P The poor wolf would die in anguish, so close yet so far from victory.
Then when he reached the village. It was time for an enthusiastic speech about defeating all wolves! After a few minutes, he already had his villager army back.
But he did things slightly differently as he showed how great a pusher he could be. He went to find the Shape-shifting wolf. Next to the wary disguised wolf, he took out the Wolf Berry Wine. Instantly its sweet scent spread in the air, entrancing the NPC.
"Pssst— I know what the fang around your neck is for. If you bring me there, I'll let you taste it." Jack tempted akin to a devil.
Would the mini-Boss betray his faction for some silly wine? There was no way that….actually yes. He fucking did!
As for navigating until the Stonehenge-looking altar? That part, too, was so damn easy since they could just evade the wolf packs, and they didn't need to bother with the berries anymore.
Was keeping the wine between runs a bug? Maybe, maybe not. Then again, was it his problem if the Infinite system hadn't planned for this eventuality? No way!
That's how the two of them finally reached the boss lair in record time. This ought to be good for the views. Hell, how many content creators built their fanbase 100% on speedruns?
As the silvery light engulfed them, the last thing they heard was the NPC begging for the wine since he had fulfilled his part of the bargain.
"Sure…I'll hand it as soon as I come back." Jack "reassured".
But to the NPC, this was bad news. It was convinced that the human would perish against her. After all, this was because Jack hadn't especially showcased his might this run.
"My wine…." Echoed its sorrowful cries…
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
"Hahahaha, we're back. Are you surprised!" Jack bellowed at the boss.
"Woo!" (Intimidating!)
"?!"
For the boss, it was the first time it saw these two. The fools would soon be food for its progeniture. Before long, they would both be despairing and regretting ever coming in its realm— or that's how it was supposed to be.
The younglings spawned and charged Jack's way. He used his shield to block all that he could but took head-on everything else. Instead of parrying, he used his Cluckinator 100% offensively.
Red damage numbers burst out as he began a killing spree. As to all the hits he was taking? It was time for him to show them the power of a whale, one that swam in healing potions!
The monsters began to question life. What was happening? They felt their claws and fang pierce the human's skin, they tasted his blood and saw his body breaking down….but a second later he was fine?! What kind of sorcery was that?!
He was consuming so many potions that it was a wonder how he hadn't died of poisoning yet. Actually….that would be a thing in a later update. But whatever, he'd worry about that in due time.
As for now, the fight was so one-sided!
Once the little ones were all dead, he tackled the wolf tits with full force. Slashing with all his might, he began to destroy it at an incredible pace. But this time, just before spawn happened, he shouted at his partner: "Now!"
Moon Moon instantly darted forward. This was their new plan to overcome the enemy: hijacking! Would it work? The two of them held their breath.
There were supposed to be six wolves spawning, right? But one of the spawn zones was already occupied by a wolf, his! Because of that, one didn't spawn there. BAM! Plan successful! Now, would this work with the twin bosses? It would be hilarious if it did!
But then Jack jerked in surprise. From the link with his pet, he could sense…power?! There was incredible energy flowing through the milk that Moon Moon had begun sucking.
Was the boss now buffing his pet? How crazy was that?! It began to grow, reaching the size of the other five small wolves. Jack was able to fight 1 v 10. Now that it was 2 versus 5, it was laughable easy.
They tore the younglings apart and then waited with bated breath the bosses. Moon Moon took his spot right next to the wolf.
Actually, what if Jack too tried sucking? What would happen? He promptly approached to test his theory, only to be blocked by some silver energy. This was racial discrimination!
On that note, the newest boss appeared.
< Romulus the Mighty Lv 8 ☠>
As for the wolf brother? It was nowhere to be seen. Instead, there was only the small Moon Moon.
Their enemy seemed utterly confused for a second. These two were enemies? Why did this wolf smell of its mother? But the boss didn't have much time to ponder as the two charged at him.
That's how began a fight that was frankly unfair. From time to time, the boss would begin to glow brightly, obviously activating a powerful skill. The light would hover in the air, seemingly trying to establish a link with the missing twin before instantly disappearing.
The boss was void of skills, alone, outnumbered, and now facing a man with infinite HP from his insane potion chugging.
Of course, there was always the possibility to one-shot Jack, right?
Yeah, about that...
— Block!
— Parry!
+ 24 HP
— Block!
— Miss!
— Block!
+ 23 HP
— Parry!
— ….
This felt so damn bad! The despairing boss really couldn't cope with such bullshit, all until it perished.
Whether it died from despair or lack of HP was unknown, but at some point, it quietly kicked the bucket, tears streaming from the corner of its eyes.
That's when all the enemy corpses suddenly began glowing red, dispersing in the wind right as a …treasure chest spawned in the middle?! Nice!
It was loot time…

Day 3: Pumpkin Skeletal Chicken Tier (4/4) ?☠?
There we go, haha! There is so much about this Dungeon Fight that remains unsaid. Want to guess? xD
Creator's Thought
Get wrecked! Get cheesed! There is no better feeling than to come back and utterly dominate a dungeon that once gave you a hard time. It suddenly feels like having accomplished something amazing! It feels like growth! Then again, the chest helps too, hehe.
