"Tiger Pounce." John whispered quietly just before his body shot through the air towards the stag that was once again eating grass.
As John landed on the back of the stag he forced it down onto the ground before saying "Bite" as he opened his jaw wide and clamping it down on the back of the stag's neck.
[Tiger Pounce has knocked enemy to the ground for 2 seconds]
[Super Critical Hit]
[Damage Dealt: 536 to Silver Deer (Veteran)]
[Energy: 100>>65]
The stag screamed in pain as John's teeth bit down on the back of its neck.
John quickly stood up and used the opportunity of the stag being stunned for two seconds to attack its neck area again this time with his claws.
[Super Critical Hit]
[Damage Dealt: 336 to Silver Deer (Veteran)]
[Energy: 65>>40]
John managed to repeat the claw attack once more, gaining three super critical hits since he attacked the stag's throat each time it was stunned on the ground.
John was surprised to see that each time he pulled away from the stag and prepared to attack its throat again an arrow came whizzing past and pierced the stag's throat, gaining more super critical hits from Melissa.
After the two seconds had past the stag stood up and roared angrily, it then turned to look at John before charging at him with its head lowered and its silver antlers gleaming dangerously as the sunlight that managed to pass through the canopy caught the antlers.
John quickly dodged to the side and swung his claw at the stag's flank like he did with the doe, however the stag quickly dodged to the side avoiding John's attack through another arrow from Melissa that pierced its other flank causing it to grunt in pain.
The stag raised its head and roared angrily again before John noticed that something seemed to be gathering at the stag's antlers.
[Dream Archer: Watch out, it's using magic.]
[Vincarna: It can do that?]
[Dream Archer: Stag's can yes, their antlers are special and give them the ability to use basic magic.]
As John finished reading the explanation from Melissa the stag opened its mouth and a green orb of energy shot out of it directly towards John.
"Shit." John said as he tried to dodge the attack, unfortunately because he had not been expecting magic from the stag since the doe never used it, John was too slow and was hit by the attack that sent him flying.
[Damage Received: 1017 from Silver Deer (Veteran)]
[Health Points: 1600>>583]
John flew through the air and smashed into a tree hard before falling to the ground.
"Fuck that hurt." John groaned in pain.
[Dream Archer: Are you ok?]
[Vincarna: Somehow, though that attack took off almost a third of my health. It caught me by surprise since I wasn't expecting it to use magic.]
[Dream Archer: That's not surprising considering the level gap and your tiger form is more focused on attack than defense. Actually it's a miracle you're still alive, any normal player would be waking up in the real world right now if they got hit with that attack.]
[Dream Archer: Also you should really research any quest targets before you attempt them, if they are part of a quest then they are never so simple.]
[Vincarna: So I'm learning.]
The narrative has been illicitly obtained; should you discover it on Amazon, report the violation.
The stag pawed the ground with its front hoof before lowering its head once again and charging at John.
[Dream Archer: It's charging.]
John saw the stag coming and though ungraceful he managed to roll his body aside just in time so that the stag's charge missed him and instead struck the tree making it shake.
Instead of taking the opportunity to attack the stag John decided to back away and create some space between the two as he tried to catch his breath.
[Vincarna: I'm assuming you can avoid the stag if I go into stealth right?]
[Dream Archer: Of course, I am after all higher level than you, the hunter gains many skills to lock their targets down so they can't get close to them.]
[Vincarna: Good, I will have to remember that."
"Stealth." John said as his body once again vanished as he turned invisible.
The stag snorted and looked around angrily for the tiger that had caused it so much pain, however as it failed to find any sight of its hated enemy it turned its attention towards the archer hidden nearby that had been shooting it with arrows.
The stag once again lowered its head before charging at Melissa who calmly drew her bow before saying, "Binding Shot."
The arrow shot from her bow and as soon as it struck the stag it split into three parts, one part stayed lodged in the stag while two others shot towards the ground on either side of the stag as thick metal chains connected the two ends.
As the two parts of the arrow split off and pierced the ground the chains stopped the stag dead and bound it in place as it thrashed around and tried to free itself.
[Dream Archer: It's bound for twenty seconds, let's finish this quick.]
[Vincarna: Copy that.]
"Ravage" John said as leaped at the rear of the stag with his claws extended before sinking them deep into the animal's back causing it to scream in pain again.
[Damage Dealt: 234 to Silver Deer (Veteran)]
[Energy: 85>>35]
John had recovered plenty of energy during the time he was hit by the attack and then was in stealth, after his ravage skill landed he pulled his body further up the back off the stag using his claws that where still embedded into the stag before removing one of the claws and since he was technically still behind the stag he used "Shred" to attack the back of the stags neck again.
[Critical Hit]
[Damage Dealt: 268 to Silver Deer (Veteran)]
[Energy: 35>>10]
Since he attacked a weak spot of the stag he once again got a critical, however since the stag was not incapacitated like before when it was stunned after his Tiges Pounce and could still thrash around even if it couldn't move anywhere Genesis didn't count it as a super critical.
Arrows whizzed over from Melissa and while most only hit the main body because of how the stag thrashed around trying to free itself, some still hit the neck and head earning a critical.
After one of Melissa's arrows critically hit the stag suddenly stopped thrashing before it raised its head and roared in a voice far louder than they had heard so far as a wave of energy erupted from the stag sending John flying once again.
This time John was able to stabilize himself before he landed on all for and looked back at the stag to see that it had gained a red hue around it and was once again starting to gather magic at its antlers though in far greater amount than before.
[*NOTICE* Silver Deer (Veteran) has entered RAGE MODE]
[RAGE MODE: Attack power and casting speed double, however, End Stat halves]
[Dream Archer: Shit it hit fiver percent health and entered rage mode, kill it now.]
[Vincarna: On it.]
John noticed as he dashed towards the stag that Melissa began to charge a big attack as that the arrow that was drawn in her bow was gathering power and starting to glow.
[Vincarna: Remember, don't hit it with a spell.]
[Dream Archer: I'm a hunter, my damaging attacks are all classed as skills I don't have any spells, unless you count that ridiculous spell tomb the fat prince tried to win me over with.]
[Vincarna: Spell tome?]
[Dream Archer: Yeah, he has always been trying to win my heart with gifts, one of the recent ones was a spell tome belonging to the Warlock class that lets you summon a minion, he made the outlandish claim that it can be used by any class not just the warlock, as if that's possible.]
[Vincarna: Did you check the spell tome?]
[Dream Archer: No, I don't want anything that bastard gives me and instead I plan to sell it when I return to the city.]
[Vincarna: Let me see it when we finish this fight.]
[Dream Archer: Why?]
[Vincarna: I will explain after, for now let's finish this before the boss launches its big AOE attack.]
"Tiger Pounce" John said as he leaped into the air and covered the remaining distance to the stag before saying "Bite" before he opened his jaws and bit down on the stag's neck just as Melissa fired the attack she had been charging as she said "Power Shot".
