S P L A A A S H!
Just when I thought that we could take a break after slaying so many monsters, an even more monstrous being showed up out of the blue. The Ruler of the Swamp was in all of his glory right before us.
-----
[Ruler of the Swamp: Lv76] [Rank: B+++] [Status: Furious, Hungry]
[Description]: A Giant Anglerfish that dwells in the depths of the Swamp's waters. Its enormous size and tremendous appetite makes it an apex predator and consumer of all. It has been called the Ruler of the Swamp ever since it was seen, and such name has been engraved into its soul.
It often sleeps, but once many monsters are slain and the swamps are disturbed, it emerges to fight whoever has brought its sleep to an end. It can viciously bite through anything, shake the entire swamp with its body size and control Water and Poison Magic. If ever encountered, it is recommended to run as fast as you can.
[Skills]: [Poisonous Goo Coating] [Giant Body] [High Speed Self Regeneration] [Poisonous Giant Tongue] [Enormous Crushing Jaws] [Poison Bullets] [Poison Breath] [High Speed Swimming] [Ruler of the Swamp] [Call for Help] [Subject Enhancement] [Water Stream] [Poison Sea] [Gluttonous Jaws] [Absorption] […]

An enormous anglerfish-like abomination from the depths, a mouth so wide it could swallow us all in a single bite, and several gross eyes all over its face. Atop its head there was a bait in the shape of a squirming human-like thing. It didn't use it with us for some reason though, as it showed up right away without any further introductions. It was covered on blue and green scales, and a lot of goo as well, which seemed to also be some sort of poisonous substance to boot.
This thing was packed with deadly parts everywhere. There was absolutely no part of its body that didn't had lethal poison or sharp spikes that could pierce through anything.
"GRUOOOOHHHHHH!!!"
The gigantic fish didn't attacked right away either, as it roared. The swamps began shaking the moment it did, as countless Monsters started to emerge from its depths. Even more Salamanders and Giant Acid Swamp Slimes appeared, alongside new buddies that were big, super evolved Poisonous Frogs named Tyrant Poisonous Frogs, and also evolved Spear Fish named Javelin Fishes and even lesser Rulers of the Swamp named Giant Poisonous Anglerfish.
It had obviously used the [Call for Help] Skill it had the moment the fish saw we were quite a lot of foes that it had to deal with. Additionally, that thing was really annoying, as the moment it summoned the monsters from the swamps, it covered them on a powerful aura, boosting the monsters' stats! This was also due to one of its skills: [Subject Enhancement]!
"Uwah! This is bad!" Helga cried.
"Too many monsters… There's dozens of Giant Acid Slimes now!" Blackard said.
"It was already hard to deal with one ourselves…"
"Root had a hard time as well!"
"And those are like fifty more Salamanders?!"
"Tyrant Frogs to the left, they're big!"
"Shit, we should had brought a golem!"
"We're far too outnumbered…"
The dwarves were freaking out a bit.
Lucifer looked from behind while holding on Nyx.

"Should we interfere?" He wondered. "I am getting a bit bored of looking."
"Can we?! Can we?!" Asked Partner.
"I wouldn't mind using my bow a bit." Said Emeraldine.
"I'll use my Fishing Rod! It is super effective against Aquatic-type monsters!" Takeshi said. "I can also swim easily too."
"I can also blow them up easily." Laura nodded.
"I am not that good inside Swamps, but I can always blast everything with my Infernal Breath." Brunhild said.
Everyone was so reliable… over a thousand monsters showed up alongside the Ruler of the Dungeon, but even then, with everyone here, I don't have much to worry about. Mostly every monster summoned as C+++ Rank, while the Boss was only B+++ Rank.
Just yesterday we had slain almost a thousand A- Rank Monsters, so naturally these guys wouldn't be a problem at all for us. If we spread our army around, they'll get easily slaughtered. I guess I have no more choice here, there's just too many. I don't want to pointlessly risk the lives of the dwarves either.
So we'll do a bit of strategy. Although I could simply raise as Undead the other monsters we just slain, it would be better if everyone have their own fun for a bit.
"Alright! Lucifer, Brunhild, you two act as Tanks, cover both left and right side and don't let any monster slip through your defenses, protect the dwarves!" I commanded.
"Got it!" Lucifer said.
"Very well." Brunhild nodded.
"Emeraldine, go with the dwarves and give them your support through your archery." I commanded.
"Oh, okay!" Emeraldine agreed quickly.
"Partner, Takeshi, and Laura, go wild in the back and around the boss as you please. And as for me and Root, we'll go against the Boss and his closest lackeys, the strongest monsters after him that are around the monster's range." I said with a command.
"Okay Master, gyugyuh!"
The cute Root flew into the skies in his Spirit Embodiment form, resembling an egg-shaped bush of bright dark green and slightly bluish leaves, alongside having two tiny wings. His face was a wooden mask with a long wooden nose and two holes as eyes. The jewel was still in his forehead.
In this form, Root was able to naturally hover around the air, floating like Spirits do. It was a pretty handy transformation if I wanted him to be more agile and flexible. It also helped he finally got a powerful long ranged magic skill so he can spam it while in this form, as his stats switch around, sacrificing his defenses for speed and offense for magic power.
"Then let's go, Root!"
I jumped into the air as the two of us flew across the battlefield. The Boss noticed us, roaring furiously. The entire swamp's water began trembling.
"GRUOOOHHH!"
