Glancing at the hodeg peacefully resting in the middle of the cave, looking back at me, in a low voice Kevin asked
"So once we kill it we get to the main dungeon area?"
Nodding my head in affirmation, I responded
"Yeah, after we kill the real challenge begins"
"Alright, if it's only a hodeg, it shouldn't be that hard. Huup!"
Nodding his head in understanding, Kevin summoned his sword. Thereafter, tensing his leg muscles, he directly shot towards the Hodeg.
"Huuup!"
Arriving before the hodeg, without hesitation, Kevin swung his sword towards its tail. The most dangerous part of the monster.
—Clank!
"Kueek—!"
A loud metallic sound resounded across the dungeon, followed by a loud screeching sound. Soon after, like a whip, the hodeg's tail shot towards Kevin who swiftly moved backward and dodged it.
Unbothered by the commotion that was happening, standing not so far from where Kevin was, glancing at the book, I quickly gave Kevin instructions.
"Kevin, in a couple of seconds the hodeg's tail will come at you once again, take one step back and aim towards its left flank, near its leg. That's its weak spot"
"Roger that"
Nodding his head, Kevin gripped his sword more tightly.
—Swooosh!
...and just like I had stated, the hodeg's tail came swinging towards Kevin. It was so fast that only a blur could be seen. The way the tail curved in the air as well as the sound that it produced as it moved, reminded me of a whip.
—Kacha!
"Huaap!"
Listening to what I had said, taking a step back, Kevin narrowly avoided the tail. Thereafter, without skipping a beat, Kevin shot like a bullet and aimed towards the left side of the Hodge.
-Spurt!
Like a knife cutting through butter, Kevin's sword inserted itself into the hodeg's left leg area. Green blood spurted everywhere and a loud enraged roar shook the dungeon.
"Kueeeeeek—!"
-Swoooosh!
"Wheeee—Off you go!"
Creating a circle with my sword, a translucent ring appeared before me. With a flick of my fingers, I whistled at Kevin who nodded his head and jumped upwards.
"Thanks!"
a couple of meters above the hodeg, Kevin skillfully dodged the beast's tail that was trashing the ground below in a berserk state. Without hesitation, twisting his body in the air, Kevin's foot perfectly landed on my
