One last time, Yuki poured as much stamina as he could into "Niflheim's holy treasure". As it turned colder, the small shards began to appear from the blade. Wasting no time, Yuki plunged his sword into one of the golems remaining. As it went through the golem's chest, it pierced through its back but now the ice shards began to melt and the sword was once more stuck. However Yuki had been expecting this. Just as he had done previously, Yuki began to gather his stamina energy and pour it specifically on the area which was making contact with the golem. The concentrated stamina formed larger shards and melted in the body of the golem. All while making a loud sizzling sound.
"This isn't going to work, I already put a majority of my stamina into the blade to defeat the first golem."
"Come on, just let me take another one down," said Yuki as he strained even more to put in all of his remaining stamina.
Finally after what had seemed to be a hopeless struggle against time, right before the golem's retaliation punch ready Yuki's face. The golem stopped in its tracks, slowly the engravings began to lose their red light and the golem began to turn much colder. Soon after it lost its shape and fell to the ground, now all that was left of its body were a pile of rocks.
Feeling exhausted from releasing so much of his stamina, Yuki fell on his bum, breathing heavily, trying to catch his breath. However, the rest of the golems weren't going to allow this to happen. Yuki had just killed two of their comrades in front of them. As they all threw their enormous fists at Yuki simultaneously, creating a somewhat magma wall, Yuki quickly rolled out of the way.
"Why are these stages so hard to complete. I get that it was supposed to be a lifelong journey across the world. Exploring the unknown and expanding my knowledge but this just seems like torture. There is nothing fun about this. If this were to be a video game sold at stores, it should be called 'the evil game which gives players a hard time'," Yuki complained.
[Open inventory]
Yuki pulled out 2 stamina boost potions as he would at least need that much increase in stamina to be able to keep up with his enemies. However Yuki didn't want to fight using his swords. While he enjoyed looking at them, Yuki couldn't use them to their full capabilities due to him not being a high level player. They were more of a liability than an asset. They did have their moments which were useful, but those times were few in number.
Yuki put away "Niflheim's holy treasure" and drank the stamina boost potions. However this wasn't because he was going to fight his opponents with his bare fists. Yuki had something completely different in mind.
"How about if I do this?" Yuki asked himself
"Activate ability: Fire control"
Yuki created 3 fire swords at his side. He wanted to see what would happen if the magma golems were attacked by a flame sword instead of an ice one. The obvious answer was that they would either do no damage or charge the golems to be an even more fearsome opponent. As the swords all flew to 1 single golem, the pierced through its stone shell then began to get absorbed by it.
"Good, now I can move on to the next stage of the testing process," said Yuki.
Yuki continued to create many fire swords and directed them at the golem. Every once in a while he would aim for the other golems as well, just to knock them back so they wouldn't interfere.
After continuously pummeling the golem for a while, its colour began to change into a deeper and much darker red. It looked to grow in size and looked a lot more angry than before. It's eyes were the same colour as the engravings on its shell. After sustaining so much damage, the magma began to leak from its eyes. Making it look to be crying.
"Come on, just break already," said Yuki as he began to throw the fire swords at a much quicker rate than he did before. All while keeping his distance, Yuki began to get annoyed at directing the blades mid air instead of touching them himself. Yuki now began to create them using his ability and fired them using his hands. It would be much faster and more efficient to rely on his hands to put in some effort as it would save him some stamina in the process.
Grabbing each blade was no problem for Yuki as his ability could not harm him in any way shape or form. However his strategy to overcharge the golems wasn't going anywhere. Yuki had assumed that just because they could absorb the fire, it meant that they would have a limit and once they had reached it, they would collapse. Unluckily for Yuki, that was not the case and he had just created a foe that he himself could not defeat without the consumption of a large amount of potions.
"I still have a lot of potions left since I stock piled on them using the money I earned from completing the first dungeon but I still don't want to rely on them too much. Even if I can use Zero to heal me, the few seconds which I have to experience the overdose effect of the potions is absolute hell," said Yuki.
Yuki was now focusing completely on dodging the supercharged golem's attacks. The boost from all of Yuki's fire swords had made him a lot faster than before, which covered for the one weakness it had.
"There's still one thing I have left to try," said Yuki.
Yuki made himself flout in the sky by counting his shoes in flames and propelling himself by pumping more fire into them. Unable to be harmed, Yuki could now try the last thing he had in mind.
"Activate ability: flame control"
Yuki began to concentrate on the super charged golem, raising his palm and making it face the monster. However Yuki didn't plan on sending an attack towards the golem, on the contrary he planned to do the exact opposite. Fire began to exit the super charged golem's body, making it shrink in size.
Yuki planned to extract the one thing that kept his enemies alive.
