Nymph smiled, Arthur did the sa. The young man threw a purple light magic attack forward, aiming at the woman.
It was easy for her to parry and dodge Arthur's attack. Nymph stretched her arms out to the sides, creating thousands of vines chasing Arthur.
"Stay away from those vines!" said Arthur, understood by the other mbers.
Morgan unleashed his talent attack towards the Nymph, an earth talent attack. But, the Nymph returned to destroy the stone balls that Morgan released. Sara ran around while preparing her sub-talent.
"I'll hold her off," Sara said, Arthur cleared his throat in response.
Sara summoned powerful chain magic from her palm with a sideways hand gesture. The black chain managed to grip the Nymph's hand firmly, making her unable to catch up with Arthur's speed.
Sara's hand pointed downwards, sending the black chain through the ground to catch the Nymph's other hand.
However, the woman noticed the energy fluctuations from beneath her feet. She jumped quickly while her right hand remained bound in Sara's chain.
Sara was pulled along, Karen stepped quickly forward and held Sara's body from being carried away by the Nymph. The Nymph's left hand gripped Sara's black chain, then activated a vine attack aid at Sara's body.
"Damn it!"
When Sara and Karen felt on the edge, Hana reached out and let the water shield protect the two won. Sara broke the black chains and escaped the effects of the Nymph's power.
"Thank you, Hana."
"Focus on the fight, Sara!"
Nolan stepped ahead while activating thousands of bubbles. Nymph was confused as to what kind of power the group wanted to show.
"Bubbles?" asked Nymph.
The function of the bubbles limited Nymph's vision. Arthur could breathe a sigh of relief. At least she was no longer after him. However, Arthur was sure the bubble wouldn't last long.
"Jack, Rasputin, Khan! Help ."
[Servant Activated]
[1. Jack the Ripper]
[2. Grigori Rasputin]
[3. Genghis Khan]
[MP -47500]
[Na: Aaron]
[MP: 118000/228000] [-47500]
Three soul servants appeared before Arthur. Morgan and the others were shocked; they didn't expect Arthur to have more than one soul servant.
That made Sara smile wider; maybe there was a chance for them to win this challenge.
Jack disappeared into the mist, Rasputin lunged forward, and Khan mounted his horse, holding his two curved swords.
Nymph, trapped in that annoying bubble, could feel the fluctuation of servant energy in that place.
The woman in the green dress seed to stomp her foot forcefully, bringing up vines with sharp edges above the ground, bursting hundreds of bubbles that restricted her vision.
"My guess was right. You are an interesting man, Arthur!" said the Nymph.
Nolan fell to his knees, blood pouring from the corners of his lips as the Nymph burst all of his bubbles in one powerful strike. Hana approached Nolan, helping to heal the man.
The bubbles disappeared, but a white mist filled the area around the Nymph. Jack activated the thousand-glass illusion sub-talent, making clones of himself pop out of every mist surrounding the Nymph.

[MP Recovery 1500/5 seconds]
'What? She has a high recovery buff?' asked Arthur, shocked.
Rasputin used his talent for persona reality to trap the Nymph. The woman was successfully trapped and stayed in Rasputin's illusion. Now, it was Genghis Khan's turn to unleash his best offense yet.
Genghis Khan brought to life the projection of thousands of soldiers behind him. With a hand gesture forward, he ordered his thousands of n to attack the Nymph rcilessly.
Morgan and the others went to another side, staying away from the great battle that was about to take place.
"I am not that easy to defeat!" said Nymph.
The woman wrapped herself in a ball of vines. That allowed her to be protected from Jack or Khan's attacks. Arthur squinted, sensing that the orb's shield was strong enough to protect the Nymph.
Thousands of n lunged forward, swinging their swords and trying to break the walls of the orb. However, no one could do it.
Jack, Rasputin, and Khan stood outside the fog, keeping their eyes forward.
The longer they waited, the more HP and MP the Nymph managed to recover. Arthur felt the situation was worsening; if he couldn't find the Nymph's weakness, perhaps the fight on the boss floor would last for quite a while.
"That damn vine orb is quite strong. My Mongol army can't even break through its defenses," said Genghis Khan.
"What do we do, Master?" Khan asked.
Arthur was silent, his mind still struggling to co up with a solution to defeat the Nymph fast. He looked forward, specifically at Sara and the others still standing still, waiting for instructions from soone.
'If I wait any longer, I'm afraid they'll be affected,' Arthur replied.
"You guys return; let finish this," said Arthur; the three servants cleared their throats and nodded.
Right after they returned to Arthur's body, all talent effects disappeared, such as fog, illusions, and the army's projections.
Noticing that the area outside the protective sphere was getting quiet, Nymph slowly opened the gap in the sphere and found Arthur looking at her with focus.
"You're so strong. I even had to use my abilities to protect myself," Nymph replied, slowly opening the walls of the vine orb that enveloped her one by one.
"If I make you one of my mythology race's servants, can I get HP and MP regen abilities?" Arthur asked.
"That's a buff from my mythology race, not my talent. Of course, you'll get them, though not as much as the buffs on directly."
'This is much more useful than I thought. With HP and MP Regen, I don't have to worry about HP Potions or MP Elixirs.'
"Alright. You have nothing to worry about. I'll make sure you beco one of my servants!" Arthur said.

"Sara!" shouted Arthur. The woman knew what the young man ant.
Sara crouched down with both palms touching the ground, sending thousands of powerful black chains scouring the underground area to target the Nymph's body.
In Sara's eyes, she saw Arthur bring up hundreds of dinsional portals in the area around the Nymph.
The Nymph gasped, feeling the presence of those dinsional portals was enough to give her fear. She looked forward again, watching Arthur closely.
'If I were his servant, maybe I could live a more pleasant life than fighting humans in this place. It's exhausting,' Nymph complained.
Nymph's hands, which had been raised up, fell back with a smile on her face. Arthur narrowed his eyes, trying to read what the Nymph was up to.
"Is she planning sothing?" Arthur asked, curious.
Thousands of black chains rose from the ground and shackled the Nymph's body, dealing minor damage.
Her hands, feet, and stomach were shackled tightly, making it difficult for the woman in the erald dress to move.
"Now, Arthur!"
Arthur nodded. He released hundreds of explosive orbs from inside the portal at the Nymph. Despite her life being at risk, Arthur could see her smiling broadly with satisfaction, a sign that sothing she wanted would be achieved.
BOM!
Successive explosions shook the ground in the room. Morgan and the others could clearly see the color of the explosions, a mix of black and purple, as damage panels popped up before Arthur's face.
[Damage 34500]
[Critical 45000]
[Damage 25400]
[Three Combos! Great!]
[Boss: Queen of Nymph]
[HP: 0/90000] [-104900]
With such damage, Arthur could ensure the Nymph was completely dead in his hands. Arthur moved his hand forcefully sideways, blowing away the puff of black smoke that had risen up, blocking his view of the Nymph.
There, the Nymph was seen sitting on her knees with her head bowed. Arthur deactivated his magic and stepped forward directly before the li-eyed woman.
"As I thought, this is painful," the Nymph replied.
"Before I die, please take my consciousness core and add it to my blood later," the Nymph pleaded.
Arthur nodded, understanding what she ant. He stretched his hand straight ahead, aiming for the Nymph's forehead.
It was easy for Arthur to get a speck of golden orb in his grasp, the core of the Nymph's consciousness.
[Item Obtained]
[1 Mythological Race consciousness core]
The blood of the mythological race was useful for summoning servants of the mythological race. Still, if it was added with the consciousness core of the sa race, then the servant would have a personality like Sokia.
Still, the Nymph would be a servant who could not do other things freely. She could only obey the words and orders of Arthur as her master.
The Nymph's body slowly turned into dust particles that flew into the sky. She said goodbye until her entire body vanished. The green light that originally filled this place turned blue, another panel appeared.

Since Arthur got the last hit, he was granted more EXP, TP, and RL. Mona and the others jumped for joy, feeling excited that they could conquer the floor, although it was all thanks to Arthur's efforts.
Arthur allocated so of the TP he earned to his first talent, needing around 800,000 TP to ascend to the final stage. He was confident that the talent's power would be even more terrifying if it reached the third stage.

The young man handed the Sansevieria Sword to Karen, as she needed it more than he did. Karen smiled, thanking Arthur.
Arthur himself took the vial of Mythological Race blood as promised to Nymph. Everyone got their share, and now it was just a matter of ti before they arrived at the next floor.
