Primordial Villain With A Slave Harem

She snickers, "hehehe. I did indeed do all that, didn't I?" Pride is brimming from my adorable partner so much so that she isn't even bothering to defend herself after being called out, and even ends up agreeing with me. Maybe she has a ditzy side to her as well.

I continue my verbal torrent, "also you say I'm throwing you into the middle of a wolf pack but didn't we just establish a second ago that you yourself, by your own volition, jumped into their midst?"

She doesn't answer and refuses to meet my gaze.

*Sigh*

"But to answer your question, no, that wasn't part of my plan because if the next batch of wolves are just as smart as these ones they will send someone to duel me again. Instead, we should move together with you taking up the brunt of their offense while we both focus on the stragglers that lash out at me.

With how amazing of a close combat genius you are and with all your sexy acrobatic moves I'm sure you can handle a few level 5 wolf monsters for a while even if you focus on killing other targets."

She finally turns her head to look at me and grins, "I don't know about the 'sexy acrobatic moves' part but sure, we can try out your strategy. I always welcome a good challenge that tests my skills as a warrior."

I happily receive her approval with a nod of my head.

We then begin enacting my suggested approach, starting from the next monster chamber and the results are apparent. This time there are only three wolves, two ice and one fire type. Ayame stands between me and them without charging in carelessly. The wolves refuse to charge at us as well, polar opposite to how they behaved last time, perhaps because their numbers are not enough in their minds?

Anyhow, they are acting defensively by keeping their distance and throwing spells at us.

I must say that the Emberclaw is one badass monster with its amazing destructive capabilities.

The Frostbite are much more on the control and precision side of things while the Emberclaw's fighting style can be summed up as 'I will just destroy everything in my path', which is evident with its big AoE spells that burn the air around us as we decide to charge at them ourselves if they refuse to engage voluntarily.

Two melee fighters don't have much of a choice but to be careless sometimes, sadly. No wonder Ayame developed such a fearless mind, she is forced to run at mages and archers while getting bombarded with their projectiles.

I follow in her shadow closely while she is deflecting the ice spells and dodging the fire ones with graceful movements. Thankfully she is moving at a speed which I can replicate, otherwise I might've become a bit of a fried human- or rather fried primordial. It still hasn't sunk in completely that I'm actually no longer human… Not that I'm complaining.

Primordials absolutely rock.

The wolves attempt to 'run and gun', by which I mean they are running for their lives while slinging spells at us without pause- sadly for them there's just too much of a gap in the speed department between them and Ayame for this strategy to work out well.

She quickly catches up to them which forces the wolves to separate from their little pack, and she instantly slashes the two icy ones into four halves.

The last one is desperately running away from her but it is still looking back at Ayame while throwing spells her way- which means it completely forgot about my existence. The Emberclaw in its desperation ran straight towards me, and I gave it a warm welcome in the form of impaling it on my spear through its chest.

Using its own speed and my strength to create a high enough force due to the extreme velocity that I actually one-shot the wolf without needing to use [Power Strike] as after a few short pained whimpers it remained completely limp on my poking stick.

At first I believed that this strategy was only effective due to us facing only three wolves, but I was thankfully proven wrong as we didn't face much hardship even when facing five of them in a single chamber.

Ayame took on the role of a frontliner, who instead of soaking up damage gracefully evaded or parried their attacks and I played a mid-range backliner who utilized the extreme reach of my spear to my advantage.

After about two hours we found ourselves in front of the boss chamber's giant, ornate double doors. We decided to stop for a brief respite as I was getting quite exhausted by this point, but after a fifteen or so minutes of rejuvenation, likely assisted by my awesome new race, I was revitalized and we were determined to head in for the final monster challenge of the day.

After this victory we will unlock the teleport channel which will let us start our next Aldoria labyrinth clearing session straight from the 6th floor, saving us tons of time and energy.

As Ayame and I step into the boss chamber, an ominous chill runs down my spine. The air feels charged with an eerie energy, and the temperature fluctuates between blistering heat and bone-chilling cold. The boss chamber's giant doors close behind us mercilessly.

There's only two ways for us to get out of here now; either by winning and walking to the 6th floor's entrance on our two legs or getting in our coffins and trying again in the next life.

"What the fuck is this abomination?!" I shout unintentionally due to my sudden shock. The boss in front of me is an insurmountable wall for my current self, I know by instinct that the way I am now would not even be able to put up a fight should I have to duel this creature.

I would get absolutely toyed around with and then devoured like the prey that I am in front of this frightening boss monster.
