The Requirements have been fulfilled!
Defeat all the stupid Ice Gators: Check!
Hidden Boss has been summoned!
This was out of nowhere.
I knew there was some faint life below the lake, but I thought it was just a bunch of gators sleeping or something.
But it seems that it was our hidden boss of the day.
Oh man, and it looks ready to eat us.
And angered.
When we killed all the gators, this thing showed up.
…

…
It is peak stage like me.
Yet it has stats a bit above me.
Why everything has stats way above me?!
No, I have higher Mana and Magic still! And even higher Dexterity.
Wait, is this the first time that a life-threatening enemy has less dexterity than me?!
And it's… Oh? So she's mama gator and got angry because we casually slaughtered her children.
She most likely used her Kin Control Ability to control the Gators.
Perhaps she uses them to attack anything around the lake and bring her food while she naps underwater.
And she's super angry at me because I killed her slave-children.
Well, you should have taught them to not mess with people that can literally kill them with a single slash of their claws, right, ma'am?
"GRAAAAAAH!"
Yeah, she's not listening anyway.
Boom! Boom!
Suddenly, Mama Gator twists her body.
Eh? What is she doing?
And then, her enormous tail approaches us at a fast speed.
If that hits us, we are done for.
It has enough strength to crush bones.
We would be flattened into the ground.
I would become a dragon pancake!
Yuki jumps over my back as I control the winds and jump away from the attack!
CLASH!
Its tail hits the ground not one time, but multiple times!
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
And it is following us at a fast pace!
Oi didn't the status said she had lower dexterity than me?!
Well, she's not even moving from her position, so maybe it doesn't count?
We quickly make a good distance from her, running away to the point where her tail cannot reach us anymore.
For a moment, it stood still.
I suppose she doesn't want to get out of the pool…
No, but I really want to kill her.
Okay, that might have sounded pretty psycho, but she's my ticket to get to Rank 2.
And I am not losing into this opportunity!
However, before that, the gator unleashes an entire snowstorm.
FLASH!
And after that, countless icicle spears begin to rain all over us!
Good thing I have Ice Absorption, but not Yuki!
I quickly grab her and put her below my belly, as I simply ignore the icicle spears, which break immediately after hitting me.
Magic is pretty interesting, it can generate solid objects that can slice and pierce, but it is a temporary state of magic particles, and it doesn't stay like this forever.
For example, ice generated by magic can't be eaten, it disappears inside your belly, and if you try to melt it, you won't get water, it will go back to magic particles.
Similarly, thanks to Ice Absorption, my body becomes something that destabilizes any ice attribute mana particles that it is touched with, and absorbs them.
In my resume, whenever these attacks touch my scales, they break apart and are absorbed into my body.
This way, I am immune to mama gator's long-ranged countermeasures.
But I pretend that I am suffering while running around.
She seems to have taken the bait, and fires more and more icicle spears.
Heh, fool!
I groan painfully, as I check her Mana.
Almost getting to zero already!
Yes, go down to zero and then I can take you down.
Without Mana, you won't be able to use Berserk Mode, and you will be even more sluggish without boosting your speed by infusing it into your muscles!
Yuki glares at me with curiosity, she thinks I am being a clown now.
But when the Mana reaches Zero, I pretend to drop dead over the ground and quickly make all the power around me disappear.
The Mama Gator glares at me and begins to slowly move out of the lake, opening her jaw.
Oh yes, come eat me, I am an easy meal…
"Graaah…!"
She seems tired and a bit hungry, this is ideal for her after all, kill and eat me to recover all the energy she used storming the place.
She opens her gigantic maw, slowly moving towards my "corpse".
Yuki tries to get me up, but she can't fight against my weight.
"Graaahh…!"
Aaand…
Using my fast-speed thought processing, the parallel mind thought processing, mana control, and my advanced imagination, I conjure spiraling green winds around me, which I shape into a spear in less than three seconds.
And it is going right inside mama gator's maw, to boot!
FLAAASH!
The enormous quantity of slicing winds enters her gigantic jaws, as they begin to slice her interior continuously!
"Graahhh…! Grakk…!"
Mama Gator begins to choke with the wind of spears, and moves away desperately the winds, however, keep slicing her insides as they create enormous pressure!
I quickly jump out of the snow, as I conjure large ice blades.
She can't evade due to her slowness, and she's literally choking before me, she's dead!
I use large quantities of Mana, with the wind spear alone, I wasted around 200 Mana, and with these strong blades, another 200!
I am going all out!
FLASH! FLASH! FLASH! FLASH!
A shower of ice blades begins to penetrate her entire body, she doesn't have ice immunity, so it is completely useless to resist!
Her scales quickly give in, and the blades penetrate her insides.
In just a few seconds, she's gone to 20% of her health!
I jump high into the air as I ready by breathe, infusing mana into it!
She roars, and suddenly jumps towards me!
What? She still got some energy…
But it is too late, you already fell right into my scheme, you are done for.
As she opens her jaws and tries to eat me furiously, I unleash a beam of ice from my jaws, this is my leveled-up Ice Breath!
BOOOOM!
"GRAAAHHHHHH…!"
The Gate eats the entire beam as she falls to the ground with a loud boom!
I glance at her vitality.
Zero.
I won…
Damn, I just had to play nasty…
Whew, that was quite anticlimactic. But what matters is to survive, not to make battles with stakes or whatever.
After all, this is real life, not dragon ball.
