Supreme Archer: Taking The Game's Weakest Class To The Top

Chapter 37: Monkey King (3)



Puffy halted and growled.

Switching to the second phase, he lightly ran forward with Odin still latched to his tail. The monkey boss seemed to have been jogging for the first time as his obese belly and fat awkwardly shook.

Behind him, Odin waved like a flag since he didn't plan to let this tail go. Alas, when Puffy threw himself into a rolling motion, Odin was forced to open his jaw and give up as his master shouted a command from afar.

"Let him go, Odin!" Jake shouted.

No one so easily could stop the rolling boss.

Had Odin still been hanging on to him, he would have hit the ground with each roll, which would have hurt him more in the long run. Jake could have seen this; hence, he ordered him to give up on it.

Odin reluctantly did so and even wanted to answer back with his howl.

That, however, was a secret weapon that Odin couldn't use without Jake's command.

Jake had taught him that because Odin often let feelings come over him, which was wrong.

Meaning Odin stood pissed and disappointed, staring at the rolling mass of fat. His eyes didn't resemble his old self, however, as Odin had come to accept that he wasn't the best and had a lot to learn, just like his master and good friend.

The friend in question was now the target of the monkey boss.

It was difficult to imagine the boss climbing up the tree's bark to get to his side, yet the monkey king proved to Jake that they were in a fantasy magical world as his rolling mass of fat easily crested the tree's bark and landed on the branch on which Jake stood with a stupefied expression.

The branch cracked under the mass of flesh and might!

The boss then rolled across it to hit Jake with his entire weight!

Clicking his tongue, Jake looked to the side and made a rash decision to jump off the branch. He was far up on the tree, and if he were in the apartment, he would at least be on the fourth floor.

Hopping off from that height meant he would suffer more than just damage. That said, he was a human with high strength and vitality stats, so dying from that jump was thrown out of the window.

Jake dropped onto his two legs and tumbled forward, his legs numb.

[You have lost -200 HP from falling off a high height.]

[Your legs have been paralyzed for ten seconds.]

'Two hundred health points?! Are you kidding me?! And ten seconds of stun?!' Jake cursed inwardly, as he didn't imagine the damage from the fall would have cost him this many health points.

Odin howled aloud, then! He was also running in Jake's direction.

This alone said too much!

The monkey king had rolled off the branch and was falling at Jake!

With so many losses, Jake was like a sitting duck meant to be crushed in one move!

"Odin! Now!" Jake shouted.

That was the command to use Odin's precious secret weapon! Odin abruptly halted and widened his jaw, releasing the invisible and mighty howl at the spinning monkey boss.

His skill seemed to have splashed on Puffy, doing absolutely nothing! That said, it had changed the boss' trajectory by kicking him a little away and forcing him to drop behind Jake.

The fat ball struck the ground, causing an earthquake and debris to billow.

Perhaps it was because of Odin's skill, but the monkey king didn't roll ahead and instead unfolded to stand on his two. His towering frame of at least five meters drowned Jake in shadow, making him aware of his imminent death.

He came closer and watched over the pest with squinted furious eyes.

Ten seconds passed then.

Throwing his bow ahead, Jake lunged forward like an Olympic swimmer, rolled for a second, and then did acrobatics to close distance with his pet and bow.

Once he picked up his weapon again, he ordered Odin, "Get on me!"

The wolf settled on his master's head.

Jake crumpled into his Joker Form and released three fast arrows.

Each didn't do any significant damage, even though Jake was much closer to the boss. It wasn't just because he paid for the damage with speed, but because the boss's second phase didn't only mean he'd spin.

He'd lost so many health points that his natural defenses increased!

'Ah, you little,' Jake cursed before turning around and running away from the boss, who had once again thrown himself into a rolling motion.

Dodging that fellow to the side was impossible for current Jake. That, however, didn't mean he would run to the dead end.

Once he was so close to the tree, Jake stepped on the bark and made a few more steps up before kicking the tree away, flying past the boss, and changing his direction.

Odin howled with pride.

Jake ran to another tree, which he would use to dodge the monkey boss in case he failed. For now, however, he turned around and released arrows at the twirling monkey.

All arrows bounced off!

'Which means we have to stop him,' Jake thought.

"Odin," Jake said, scrutinizing the boss's movements, searching for a weakness. He found it. "When I tell you to howl, you give your all instantly, okay?"

Odin woofed and paid all of his attention to the monkey boss.

Jake stood with a smile, his low bow.

He seemed to have given up on fighting the boss and was just looking ahead at him, waiting for his own demise.

The boss didn't really think this far and just rolled toward him. His mass of flesh increased as he got closer to Jake and Odin.

Gazing at that boss, Jake confirmed his suspicions about Puffy's weakness.

"Howl, Odin!" Jake shouted when the boss was at least ten meters away from him! On his head, Odin parted his jaw and released the heaviest roar he had done in his young life!

He lowered the monkey boss's spinning prowess, making him roll against the invisible wall! In that slowed motion, Jake saw the gap he had noticed during the monkey king's run!

'He was regularly bobbing even on the smooth surface, meaning he has a gap in his rolling form! I can see it now!' Jake thought.

He smirked and thrust his leg into that gap, hitting the boss in the stomach!

Puffy instantly spread out his limbs and dropped flat on the ground! Jake didn't break the momentum and stepped onto the monkey boss's belly, lowering his bow at him.

He wasn't exactly in his Soldier or Master Form.

It wasn't even Joker Form.

"It's like a half-form… sounds like a good idea to practice to improve myself," Jake said, his first arrow laced with Death's Lock boost popping the monkey king's eye.

The remaining eye saw Jake's sneer, "Thanks for that. I'll use you to the extent to improve this half-form!"

Fear and remorse filled Puffy's heart.

Another arrow fell onto the monkey boss' vital form.

And the last, decisive one finished his life.

[You have killed The Monkey Boss, Puffy Lv. 10]

[You have leveled up!]

[You have hit the tutorial island's level cap!]

[You have extracted the legendary trace!]

Jake brightly smiled, "We did it, Odin!'

Odin woofed before his time came.

He disappeared with a victorious howl!
