Haah….
Sighing… I observed the unconscious form of Tristan lying on the rocky floor.
It had only been five minutes since I teleported the rest of the group away, leaving him to face the boss's second form alone.
But this is where it got me...
As the boss emerged from its cocoon, draped in its bloody red body. It immediately attacked Tristan.
While not much changed in its overall power, its leaner form indicated a significant increase in speed.
Tristan, with his celestial swordsmanship specializing in speed, should have had the upper hand, even in the face of the boss's enhanced agility.
I even chose not to interfere in the fight, curious to see how Tristan would handle the situation.
However, the outcome as somewhat expected happened.
I looked at the boss right next to me, now resembling a 2-meter-tall basketball player with red skin and four hands, this guy had managed to overpower Tristan.
