(Sylphy's POV)
Aquarina's amazing performance saved the day! The Sea Snake's buffs were going through the roof. What we thought would be some small fries ended becoming too strong. The Sea Snake ended being quite the cunning monster. It even had feed its blood to some of the Eels, turning them into "Draconic Eels" that camouflaged with the others, looking almost the same as the normal ones.
Ignatius even pointed out the Water Magic it was using was Dragon Magic, which is an innate magic all dragons know how to use, and which is, well, obviously, stronger than the normal element of magic. Water Dragon Magic even coming from the weakest Water Dragon out there completely shut our strategies down.
However, as the last Draconic Eel fell by Aquarina's furious rampage, the Sea Snake roared furiously back at us, his powerful Area of Effect Spell finally stopping, as I had time to breathe.
"ROOOOOOAAAAAARRRRR…!"
"It's pissed…!" Zack said.
"Is it coming here now?!" Mist asked while panicking.
"We can take it down if we gang on it. We've fought Tier 5 monsters already." Celeste said confidently.
"Mister Teddy, you can tank his hits, right?" Celica asked.
"GAAO!" Celica's golem seemed willing to fight.
"Nephi, protect Zephy!" I told Nephilim.
"Very well master." Nephilim nodded, as she grabbed Zephy and jumped behind us.
TRUUUUUUUUMMMMMM…!
The Sea Snake began sliding like a snake would do, reaching us in mere instants! Its entire body began glowing with bright light, as its jaws suddenly caught several of the eels that served him, eating them whole!
"CRUNCH… CRUNCH… CRUNCH…!"
"What is he doing…?!" Aquarina asked.
"You damn…! Don't eat in front of us like nothing!" I roared angrily, quickly imbuing Mana into Scarlet and unleashing a combination of Heavenly Sun and Dragon Power with Ember and Sword Arts! "[Dragon Slaying Blade]!"
SLAAAAAAAASSSSHHHHH!!!!
The enormous slash of flames shaped as a furious dragon resembling Ignatius, reaching the Sea Snake in an instant and impacting its blue scales!
BOOOOOOMMMMMMMM!!!!
"GROOOOAAAARRR!"
The Sea Snake roared in fury as it caught the whole explosion. However, its body was over twenty meters long, twice as big as the eels, and those blue scales were protecting it from most damage to boot! The explosion was powerful, but the blue scales shone brightly, it barely took any damage.
"No damage?!" Asked Zack. "But Sylphy's ridiculously strong!"
"It must be because of the Dragon Scales, they're Water Dragon Scales, they can Absorb Water Magic and are incredibly resistant to Fire Magic. Even with Sylphy's incredible fire magic, it won't do…" Ignatius explained. Everyone seemed already used to my fire spirit talking.
FLAAASH!
Before we could prepare to fight it, the Sea Snake began to glow. Its blue scales emanating a shiny blue light, and its body size suddenly… grew bigger. My Heavenly Sight quickly told me what was happening.
It was already this strong at Tier 4 but…
[High Sea Snake (Lesser Dragon) (Tier 5: Rank 1)] [Status: Evolved, Strengthened]
"It evolved…?!" I asked in surprise. "This thing, that's why it ate the eels!"
Ding!
[A Special [Chain Quest] has been generated: [Defeat the Guardian of the Dungeon's Floor 2, the High Sea Snake!]
[You have made it till the end of the second floor and after having slain countless Giant Eels, you stand before the guardian of the Second Floor, a young Lesser Dragon Sea Snake, who had sacrificed his loyal underlings to gain enough power to Rank Up to Tier 5!

[Time Limit: 1 Hour]
[Complete this Quest under half of the Time Limit to obtain a Mysterious Bonus Reward!]
Eh?! A quest? Wait, so this guy is really the Boss of this Floor!
"I see, was that his plan all along?" Celeste said. "Well, no point thinking about it now that it happened. Let's hunt that thing down."
"It's coming!" I alerted everyone, as the enormous High Sea Snake made its move.
In mere seconds, the entire surroundings were engulfed by an Oceanic Wave!
SPLAAAAAASH!
The Lesser Dragon didn't even cared about making this fair, it quickly summoned a wave of oceanic water using its dragon magic, trying to throw us off guard and pick us one by one!
"ROOOAR!"
FLUOSH!
It swam around the water, as we quickly flew away from the Oceanic Wave. Furoh transformed into a large Black Wyvern, not as strong as the real ones who were Tier 7 monsters and lifting us up into the skies.
"SHAAAAH!"
The head of the High Sea Snake popped out of the oceans, gathering Mana within to blast us with a breath attack while we were flying!
"Oh no, you won't!"
Zack roared angrily, charging electricity into his fingertips, and then overcharging his weapons with them. The new axe he bought began to gain several cracks, it couldn't take on the boy's overpowered lightning magic anymore and might shatter soon.
Nonetheless, he wasn't well known for taking good care of his weapons…
"[Zeus Lightning]!"
FLAAAAAASH!
The lightning gathered in the tip of his two axes, as he unleashed a catastrophic, thunderous attack that fell from the ceiling of the Dungeon's second floor as if it were the very judgement of a Thunder God!
CRAAAAAAAASSSSHHHH!!!
And it impacted the Lesser Dragon's breath attack just in time, generating a devastating shockwave of lightning and water that spread everywhere.
BOOOOOOOM!
As the lighting shock was about to reach us, I quickly imbued Mana into Scarlet.
"Scarlet! Can you absorb this lightning?!"
FLASH!
The sword reacted by glowing brightly, as the lightning suddenly began to gather atop her blade, the power of the Lightning Blade Skill working wonderfully as well…!
"ROOOOOOOOAAAAAARRR!"
The High Sea Snake roared, seemingly not having taken enough damage to be knocked out, it quickly manipulated the ocean it had summoned, unleashing an enormous spiraling oceanic tornado against us!
BOOOOOOMMMM!!!
