Chapter 37 – Phantom Blue Butterfly King (1/2)
Although stealth was a great effect, it was terrible when facing an enemy far high level than oneself.
“Be careful Big Brother Fatty,” before Purple Bell finished, the blue butterfly turned into a ray of blue light and shot down towards Fatty.
Fatty dodged to the side and used the skill he always used when facing a monster – Appraisal.
Phantom Blue Butterfly King
Gold Boss
Level: ???
Attack: ???
Defense: ???
HP: ???
…
All of the boss monster’s stats are question marks, meaning that it was more than 10 levels higher than Fatty. It should be between Level 30 and 40. Sadly, the monster’s too strong, so Appraisal can’t get any work done.
“The boss’s level is too high, stay back!” Fatty roared, then narrowly dodged another one of the Phantom Blue Butterfly King’s attack.
Fortunately, the monster only attacked by itself, while the random mobs were still sleeping.
Fatty avoided another attack, then stood behind a tree. Purple Bell also listened to Fatty’s words and moved back a bit. Since she was quite far away from the butterfly, it didn’t take notice of her, and merely focused its attack on Fatty.
When the Phantom Blue Butterfly King got closer, Fatty finally saw its appearance. It’s entire body was blue with some special marks on it, the wings were slightly transparent, while its antennae were as clear as crystal shards.
When the Phantom Blue Butterfly King was standing on its hind legs, it was a whole head taller than Fatty. It was humongous with a wing span of three meters, which was practically the size of a small flying machine.
The Phantom Blue Butterfly King looked coldly as Fatty as if he wanted to say something. However, butterflies had no voice chords, so they couldn’t make any sound, meaning that Fatty didn’t know what it wanted to say. It can’t be anything nice though.
“You’re a king now, why the heck are you acting lonely? You made Lord Fatty come so far to give you a therapy lesson!”
“What? You wanna fight? Lord Fatty ain’t scared of yah. Lord Fatty the Boss Hunter’s gonna start hunting now!”
“Tsk, do you really think that I’m afraid of you? Come, fight meh! I will show you the true power of Lord Fatty.”
“Brah, nobody disturbed you. I am just passing by, you’re too sensitive.”
“Butterfly King, your mommy’s telling you to go back to bed.”
“Butterfly bro, escusez-moi.”
“Dude, alright now, we’re all tired, let’s just go home and rest.”
…
Fatty stood on the spot unnervingly and started sprouting nonsense with the Phantom Butterfly King.
Purple Bell watched from afar, and couldn’t help but giggle. Then immediately covered her mouth with her hands.
Purple Bell’s giggle alarmed the surrounding butterflies, causing several hundred of them to soar up into the air and scatter, once again creating a beautiful scene.
“So pretty,” Purple Bell muttered.
The prettier they are, the deadlier they are. Fatty wanted to cry as he suddenly thought of a phrase he read somewhere before.
Countless butterflies danced in the sky, but yet, regardless of how and where they flew, they always remained far away from Fatty and the Phantom Blue Butterfly, as if the latter had some sort of aura around it that made them wary.
Fatty took a glance at Purple Bell. She seemed to know that she was in danger, so she hid behind a tree without moving. All of the butterflies did not take the Level 10 mage seriously either, and merely continued to fly around by themselves.
The moment the battle timer ended, Fatty immediately went into stealth and disappeared from the Phantom Blue Butterfly King’s view. Although monsters far above the user’s level had a chance to see through stealth, that was not guaranteed, because the butterfly king was only a gold boss and not an advanced monstrosity like the Phantom Messenger.
Fatty stealthed around carefully. Like he thought, the Phantom Blue Butterfly King was unable to see Fatty. Fatty first told Purple Bell to move a bit further away, then snuck behind the butterfly king. Although he knew that the monster was far higher level than him, he wasn’t happy unless he tried an attack once.
He put a red potion in his mouth, then stood behind the monster and raised his dagger.
Coil!
A huge silver python appeared and coiled around the Phantom Blue Butterfly King. Yes! But before Fatty could feel his happiness, the silver python disappeared into particles of light.
