Azrael stared at the black and red abomination. Its eyes were a sickening yellow, and it was covered in many

scars. Short snorts inbetween its breathing revealed the sickening purple flames once more.

Azrael attempted to whistle.

"*Whistle...* Here boy...He-here...Uhhh...Spot. That's a good boy, I'll be yo-your f-f-friend."

Vera could only put her head in her hands.

"You sir, are an idiot. In what world does that thing look friendly?" Snarked Vera.

"It was worth a try." He said, as she still stared at him.

All the while, the beast was still walking toward them.

The party could now see the name Hegtrum above the hound's head.

"Pfft...Random Ai naming for the lose, that name is stupid." Thought Azrael.

"Azrael...You know...I have an idea...I mean, I haven't tested it yet, but I can enchant the animals and monsters...So, maybe I can enchant you too?" Said Vera.

"Well, given our current situation, I wouldn't be against the idea. Just don't berserk me." Said Azrael, warily.

"Roger that...I'll give you increased physical damage, and increased unholy damage. I can currently manage one fallen and one normal enchantment per item, or being..." She said.

"Well, give it ago. Enchant us ALL. So in case something goes awry, it goes awry in all of us...You mad scientist..." Said Azrael, playfully.

Vera then recited the incantations. The whole party seemed to grow a bit physically, and their hands and weapons glowed a nice purple color as well.

"Yes...YESSSS! I have the power!" Shouted Azrael.

Vera sighed, and the group finally turned their attention to the beast that was circling them.

Vera and Percy looked worried, but all Azrael could think about, was getting his hands on the skill which allowed him to breathe purple fire.

With that, he lunged at the beast. He decided to give it his all from the beginning, and launched a Bladewave. Hegtrum nonchalantly dodged, and increased the speed he was running at Azrael. Azrael kicked off the ground hard, and used stomp to launch himself into the air. He then activated Aurablade, and dove at the beast. Hegtrum once again dodged, and Azrael cleaved through the earth, leaving behind a large gash.

At this point, Hegtrum was getting really mad. It made a mad dash for Azrael, and attempted to claw him. Azrael rolled out of the way, and Hegtrum breathed the purple fire at him.

Azrael couldn't dodge fully, and blocked with his sword. He could not, however, prevent all the damage.

-400 HP

Vera took this chance to shoot multiple dark arrows at the beast, which seemed to piss it off...

Hegtrum ran at Vera, but Percy intercepted it and put both of his katars in the hound's leg. The hounded roared fiercely, and tripped. Not missing this opportunity, Azrael ran over and began slashing the beast all over.

The beast howled in pain, but got up and slashed at Azrael.

He tumbled out of the way, and kept striking.

He looked to Vera and said, "Don't let up with the long range attacks!"

Unfortunately for Azrael, Hegtrum took this moment and slammed him in the chest with fire.

Azrael braced himself, but was launched into the nearby wall.

Critical Hit!

-1200 HP

Combo Reset.

You are on fire.

"Shit!" Screamed Azrael, as he began to roll around on the ground to put out the flames.

While Azrael was rolling around, Hegtrum went for Vera and Percy. The beast knew it had the upper hand, and seemed to almost have an ominous grin on its face, despite being fairly damaged from Azrael's earlier assault.

Vera looked at Percy who was shaking with fear, and then to Azrael who was still rolling around. She then sighed, and decided she would use her trump card.

Over the last few days when alone, she had been experimenting with her enchantments. She had never thought to berserk herself, but did it by accident one day. By doing so, she learned that she would lose control of her senses for about three minutes, but her close combat strength and reaction time would be increased exponentially.

"Oh well, whatever..." Thought Vera, and she then berserked herself.

Percy saw Vera glow an eerie red, her hair grew longer, and almost looked sharp. Her muscles seemed to bulge, and she seemed to have lost her mind.

He was not about to take any chances, and hid elsewhere.

The beast ran for Vera, but knew not what she now was. As it finally reached her, she disappeared.

Vera reappeared behind Hegtrum, and pelted it with dark arrows. It seems spell multiplication kicked off, as two spells turned into eighteen arrows.

The beast was slammed with dark energy, and knocked to the ground.

Critical Hit!

The Berserk Vera roared, and ran to the beast. She became a whirlwind of carnage. She then began hacking, stabbing, ripping, and biting as she assaulted the wolf.

Critical Hit!

Critical Hit!

Critical Hit!

The creature, fearing for its life, retaliated in any way possible. It managed to deal a great amount of damage to Vera, but it was too late.

Vera had two more Dark Arrow spells charged inside of her blade-staff, and jabbed it into Hegtrum's skull. She then released the stored spells.

Critical Hit!

It was then Azrael was assaulted with messages.

Hegtrum, named hellhound, has been defeated.

Stats added to Slayer Log: +2 Str, +2 Vit.

"Damn it! That was only a named monster?" Thought Azrael, as messages kept appearing.

Two Handed Sword Mastery has reached Intermediate level one.

Bloodlust has leveled up.

Level Up.

Hidden Quest Complete: Kill Hegtrum

You have slain Hegtrum, and avenged the white and red hellhound, Tema.

Intimacy with Kora raised to maximum.

You leveled up!

"Oh sweet! We did a hidden quest! Wait...Who the hell is Kora?" Thought Azrael.

As he was lost in his thoughts, a smaller hellhound walked over to where the white and red hound had passed away, and began to whimper.

It was also white and red, and was slightly smaller in size than a baby hellhound. Its eyes were a deep blue, and it was clean and fluffy compared to the other hellhounds. The ground froze slightly where its feed landed, and the party knew it was the son of the other hound that had passed.

This was Kora.

Azrael approached the hound, wondering how he could comfort the poor thing.

"I'm sorry, Kora. Your mother fought valiantly, and did her best. We have slain her assailant, and she may now rest in peace. If there is nothing left for you here, you may journey with us. I would be glad to have you." Stated Azrael, as he walked back towards Vera.

The hound whimpered a bit, and then started to follow Azrael.

Beast Taming has leveled up.

After collecting all the loot, Azrael made his way over to Vera.

"Shit...Now I am level 51...What am I going to do? I guess Vera will have to enter with Percy? Damn it..." Pondered Azrael.

It was then Azrael noticed Percy hiding around the corner.

"Oi...Percy, what's wro-"

Azrael didn't have the chance to finish. All he could see was the blade-staff sticking into his chest.

Critical Hit!

You have died.

"Mein Furry..." Whispered Percy.

Amanda then regained her senses.

"Oops..."
