DN : [131] Subduing the Floor Boss, Balor!
🕑 Added 2024-03-22 16:00:05 +0000 UTC*ROOOOOAR*
A violent aura, roaring howls, filled the entire floor.
Finn stared in astonishment at the scene before him.
Balor, the 47th floor boss, was unexpectedly suppressed to such an extent. There were even faint traces of being overwhelmed.
This wasn't like the other floor bosses, Balor, as the 47th floor boss, had strength comparable to level 7.
Throughout Orario, there had never been heard of anyone who could single-handedly challenge and defeat him, especially not someone who could defeat him.
However, today, such a scene was unfolding before him.
In the distance, August and Balor were engaged in battle. At this moment, August had entered his Demonization, emitting a terrifying aura.
"Balor, be the ladder for my ascension."
Swinging the Zanpakuto in his hand, August directly wounded Balor. However, this further triggered Balor's ferocity.
*ROOOOOAR*
Regardless, he was the 47th floor bossr, vastly different from the previous floor bosses.
"Sit Upon the Frozen Heavens, Hyōrinmaru!"
August directly used Shikai, intending to test the power of Hyōrinmaru against Balor.
In an instant, an extremely cold breath was released, and the surrounding temperature dropped significantly.
Howl~
Balor lunged towards August, who responded with a slight smirk.
Leaping to evade Balor's attack, August swung down his Hyōrinmaru.
The frigid aura instantly froze everything in the vicinity, including Balor. This amazed Finn even more, it was ice magic, and without the need for an incantation.
Bang~
The battle continued. In the blink of an eye, Balor broke free from the ice.
"Getsuga Tenshou!"
The power of extreme cold infused into Getsuga Tenshou, transforming it into a deep blue crescent.
This was something August discovered by chance, similar to Rasengan, Getsuga Tenshou had different possibilities.
In Bleach, Ichigo Kurosaki initially had a blue Getsuga Tenshou because it was the most basic reiatsu.
However, after encountering a Hollow, and as he delved into Hollowfication, Getsuga Tenshou turned black, incorporating the Hollow's reiatsu.
Now, August did the same, adding both dark magic and ice elemental magic to Getsuga Tenshou.
This experiment proved August's idea to be correct.
Rumble~
Following that, the deep blue crescent struck Balor directly. In addition to the cutting power, the force of extreme cold also erupted, freezing Balor once again.
Swish~
Taking advantage of the situation, a series of ice bullets, like a flock of birds, attacked the frozen Balor.
Roar~
After a while, Balor broke free from the ice once again.
However, at this point, Balor had started to weaken. The once violent aura had diminished significantly. Clearly, August's successive attacks had inflicted damage.
"The final blow is next!"
August spoke slowly, and then his armament haki enveloped Hyōrinmaru.
But it wasn't over yet. The power of darkness, extreme cold, and conqueror haki, all the powers that August could add were in use.
"Instant Slash!"
His figure disappeared from the original spot, utilizing the spatial skill, Blink.
Following that, a destructive slash aimed directly at Balor's head.
Splurt~
A massive head flew into the sky.
August smiled, he had won this battle decisively.
Bang~
Balor's giant body fell, but it hadn't died. In the area where his head severed, it continued to regenerate.
August naturally wouldn't give it a chance. His treasury unfolded, and another Zanpakuto swiftly pierced through the magic stone inside Balor's body.
Rumble~
The magic stone was destroyed, and Balor instantly turned into ashes, disappearing.
[Ding!]
[Congratulations, host, for completing the quest 'Path of the Strong: Kill the 47th floor boss, Balor. Completion reward: Advanced Gacha Draw *3!']
With the quest completed, three advanced gacha draw were obtained.
Finn, who had been watching from start to finish, didn't know what to say at this moment.
Meanwhile, Ais, who saw the battle end, quickly ran over.
"Congratulations, you won."
"Of course. I am your man. How could I possibly lose?"
Ais sweetly smiled and hugged August. She had felt proud of her man more than once.
Seeing this from a distance, Finn suddenly felt satiated.
Well, just now he was surpassed by a rookie, and now he had be annoying mosquito. Was someone specifically targeting him?
At this moment, Finn really wished his old friends, Riveria and Gareth, were here. At least he could share the joy and sorrow with them.
As for Riveria and the others, after the murder incident on the 18th floor, they stayed in the 30th floor for two days and left after obtaining some magic stones.
August expressed his intention to continue exploring, and naturally, Ais accompanied him. Finn also joined to witness August's true strength.
Now he wished he hadn't. Just a glance, and he could tell it was a big deal.
August's strength was beyond his imagination. Whether on the 30th or the 40th floor, monsters were so weak before August, easily defeated with a wave of his hand.
Now, he had witnessed August undertaking the great feat of subjugating the 47th floor boss, Balor.
It had only been a short time since August arrived in Orario, just over two and a half months, not even eighty days. Yet, he had surpassed Finn. It was truly unbelievable.
At the same time, Finn could confirm one thing, August's special skill, Lust.
This skill might really work as Loki speculated. Intimate relationships between men and women could make August stronger. As for whether it worked with women too, he didn't know.
"Now that the floor boss is taken care of, I'll go take a look at the 48th floor."
Saying that, August took Ais's hand and walked towards the 48th floor, strolling like they were in a courtyard.
Seeing this, Finn smiled bitterly, choosing not to disturb the two enjoying their time together and trailing behind alone.
After arriving on the 48th floor, the system's voice rang out again.
[Ding! Congratulations, host, for completing the quest 'Eminent Reputation: Reach the 48th floor of the dungeon, complete late exploration. Completion reward: Advanced Gacha Draw *3!']
August smiled satisfactorily. Now, before the expedition, he could definitely complete all third-stage mission.
The hunting mission was long done. Now, with the floor boss, Balor, taken care of and reaching the 48th floor, all that remained was to go back, level up to level 4, and complete all the mission.

Great chapter
striker James
Nah I could see them cutting lose and doing this 2 get here but I don't think it would be required cause how close to level up just killing ether boss on 28 floor or 38? Should of been enough but this was probably to show his strength to the captain 😔 . That's what I believe.
c d
feels like there is a big gap between last chapter and this one
