be new to them, so maybe I can trick one!" He thought happily to himself. Doc didn't expect a strong man to die, but watching someone fall into a pitfall was funny and entertaining. The adventurers repeated their earlier tactic, spreading out and checking the floor as they slowly moved forward. Unfortunately for them, the pitfalls were a little thicker in this room, and 2 of the men fell into pitfalls after thinking the floor was safe. Claire and Doc laughed as they watched the two men rolling around the slimes and sputtering curses. The slimes were having trouble eating the armor, but had some success slipping inside the cracks. They didn't get too far when the leader blasted both holes with fire and evaporated all the slimes.
"That one must be a warrior mage," Claire observed, "He's currently making fun of the two that fell in.” Indeed, while they helped the men up, they were greeted by laughter and back clapping. The mage adventurer pulled the stick thing out again and illuminated the proper path as they all walked out of the room and down the stairs. The same thing happened for the rest of the dungeon, and now the five men were standing at the front of the boss room.
The herb plants had grown quickly along the walls and ceiling, but were eaten off the floor by the slimes. The effect was a dimly purple illuminated room with plants growing everywhere except the floor with one large slime in the middle of the room.
"Okay, now it's my turn!" Doc tensed up as he flowed into his slime boss body. He jiggled as the men entered and took stances facing him, eager to experience his first fight. "Attack!" He cried out in his head, launching himself at the man on the far right.
The men were startled for half a second, not expecting a dungeon boss to make the first move. It was brief, but enough for Doc to almost reach the man. He threw out his tentacles and wrapped them around the waist and sword.
The man began yelling and struggling, but was stuck by the purple tentacles. Doc picked the man up and stuck him on his head, impaling the man up to his waist in slime. He also ate the sword. The captured man struggled lamely on top of Doc's head, trying everything to escape, but couldn't find a solid enough surface to push against.
The other men moved quickly and began their attack. The mage stayed in the back and began firing fireballs at Doc. The other three ran at him and swung their swords. Doc dodged a fireball, then slapped at the swords with his tentacles. He pushed one of the men away as he desperately tried to avoid being sliced by the swords. As the third man recovered, the other slashed high and low at Doc, cutting one of his tentacles off.
Annoyed, Doc prepared another lunge. As he prepared to jump, the man in him cried out a warning. Instantly, the sword wielders dived out of the way as Doc surged forward. He missed, and ended up surrounded by the remaining warriors. A burning pain let him know that the third man had pierced him from behind. As Doc turned his attention, the mage burned him from the front with fireballs.
It was a route after that for the men, with Doc unable to split his attention between the four combatants. With a silent gurgle, he felt his dungeon boss die and dissolve. He moved back to the dungeon and sighed as he watched the overslime dissolve into a slightly bigger core, some silver, and a very embarrassed man. The adventurers were clapping and laughing and doing other forms of congratulations.
"Well, at least they had fun," Doc said with a small smile.
Claire sent him a questioning feeling from across the room, "Why did you not eat the man immediately? He would have given you a nice boost to your power and that armor would have nice too.”
Doc shook his crystal, figuratively, "I wanted them to understand that this dungeon isn't a threat, but I did want them to see I could have killed if I wanted to. Err, speaking of, are they aware of my existence?"
Claire was amused by the question,
