Day 241-250/Day 242

Day 242
Using yesterday's synthesis of【Summon: Archfiend】, I was able to call on a【Black Taurus Demon Lord】. As expected, I could not summon the【Taurus Demon Lord - Adada】as it was a dungeon boss of the【God】rank. It turns out that there really isn't anything that can be done about that. True, there wasn't ever a high chance of succeeding, and the fact that I was able to summon the【Black Taurus Demon Lord】is lucky in itself. After I level up my summoning even more, maybe I can call on him, but I won't be able to find out until I do.
I immediately decided to gauge the strength of the summoned【Black Taurus Demon Lord】, and he was quite strong. I consumed a relatively large amount of mana while summoning him and it took quite some time. However, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages. He seemed strong enough, he could fly, and his body could engage in a variety of abilities. Since I wanted to know what else I could summon apart from the【Black Taurus Demon Lord】, I tried many things that seemed possible. It was likely that with this skill, I would soon be able to call upon something else as well.
As we were done with the【Black Minotaur】, we had Black Taurus Demon Lords for breakfast. Their meat was a little tough; but with every bite my mouth was filled with a huge amount of meat juice, the taste of which I quite liked.
Of course it wasn't as good as the【Taurus Demon Lord Adada】which we had eaten yesterday, but the difference wasn't that noticeable. Overall, we all thought it was excellent meat. Yet, I wonder how delicious it would be if I gave it to the Sisters to prepare?
Now it has become necessary to quickly finish the dungeon so I can ask them to cook it! Speaking of which, we finished breakfast and revitalized ourselves, and were ready to conquer the spiral volcano. In order to get to the top of the volcano, we had to climb the spiral road that twisted up and around its slope. One could immediately fly to the top, but there were likely to be traps involving high gravity areas. There might even be something even worse. Just before reaching the summit, the volcano might erupt, and there would be nothing you could do to avoid being cooked alive.
There were black clouds gathering around the summit, and a large amount of lightning strikes could be seen within them. I decided not to fly to avoid being struck by the lightning. Putting all things together with gravity, lightning, or whatever traps there could be, the bottom line is that I just did not want to fall from that height. Anyway, it didn't matter what might have happened while flying because many in our group could not do so, so there was no alternative than to walk up the slope.
The spiral mountain road was made of solidified lava, about one meter wide, which made it a difficult trip. The path was large enough to climb; but when fighting groups of monsters, the space would become quite narrow. To progress, we would inevitably have to fight off waves of monsters that were waiting for us. Running away wasn't an option, as there was nowhere to go, and if we turned our backs on the enemy we would immediately be destroyed. We had no choice but to fight.
The place was enjoyable in terms of the difficulty of the individual monsters encountered. Each monster was quite strong but not overwhelmingly so. The strength of the demons that this dungeon could provide was equal to that of a【Demigod】class dungeon boss. However, the difficulty arose as they would be attacking in groups. Fortunately, the【God】rank monsters of the Flames of Fire Dragon Mountain dungeon were pretty small, and the size of their groups wasn't too big. Even if we encountered a large group, our party contained more than a few fighters.
In this place, the individual field bosses were much stronger than the mobs of monsters, but overcoming them through our sheer numbers was easy. In fact, at this level, Minokichi or Kanami could come here and defeat monsters quite comfortably. I found that this was much easier than when I conquered the underground【Demigod】rank dungeon. There were some problems, but there wasn't any serious injuries. Nonetheless, the numbers of monsters was extremely large.
We fought battle after battle without rest, and with the accumulated fatigue, the motions of my friends became much slower. Of course, we were being treated by Seiji, and he relieved us of our fatigue, but removing it was no simple task. This started to exhaust us, and there was also some damage to our equipment.
It wasn't damaged to such a degree that it would break, but our reactions had became slower and large amounts of scars have been carved into the armor. Although there was a lot of damage, our frequent maintenance ensured that nothing was destroyed. Just in case of an emergency, we should be more careful in the future.
As we continued up the slope we found a small den in the evening. I summoned a【Black Taurus Demon Lord】and made him guard the entrance. With that, we could spend the night without any problems. However, tomorrow is the battle with the boss of the dungeon. Thus, for the sake of tomorrow's battle, today we will prepare and rest.
The results of today's synthesis:
【Giant King's Supreme Strike】+【Giant's Iron Hammer】+【Armor Collapse】+【Overkill】+【Surging Destructive Fists of Flesh Crushing】+【Pressurized Thunder Cannon】=【Divine Destruction of the Black Demon】
【Illogical Adamantine Strength】+【Berserker Mode】+【Heightened Stamina】+【Body of Giant Elephant】+【Herculean Strength】+ 【Rhinoceros Bone Body Armor】=【Renovate Tyrannical Power of the Black Demon】
【Pyrokinesis】+【Hydro Hand】+【Electromaster】+【Aero Master】+【Earth Control】+【Plant Control】+【Photon Ruler】+【Gravity Law】+【Elemental (Spirit User)】=【All Creation】
【Echoing Arms of the Thunderstorm】+【Bright Red Arms of Boiling】=【Bright Arms of the Thunderstorm】
【Unhealing Cursed Wound】+【Curse Flame】=【Sizzling Cursed Wounds】
【Improved Digestion】+【Swallow of Great Whale】=【Ingestion of Giant Whale】
