Chapter 68: Zeth vs The Clown Doll

Narrator: The clown doll has become life-size and now intends to tear Zeth apart!

Zeth: I don’t have time for this!

The clown doll starts walking towards Zeth. Zeth quickly runs towards the clown doll while charging his fist with magic.

Zeth punches the left side of the doll’s torso. The upper left side of its torso and its entire left arm are destroyed.

Zeth: Well, you certainly are not as tough as you are scary.

The wound starts to glow gray with magic and the torso and arm grow back.

Zeth: No! Come on!

Zeth starts charging magic into his hands.

Zeth: I’ll just get rid of every part of your body! Star Shards!

Zeth sends five star shards at the doll. They cut off both arms, both legs, and its head.

It grows all of those back, and then it leaps at Zeth.

Zeth: Shit!

Zeth gets out of the way and heads to the opposite side of the room.

The doll stands up after its leap misses.

Zeth: The magic properties of this mansion apply to the doll too?

The doll walks towards the safe and opens it, causing the room to go dark.

Zeth: I can’t fight like this!

Before Zeth can do anything further, he gets attacked by the doll. The clown starts using its claws to slash Zeth which greatly damages him.

Zeth: Gahh! Err! …Wait, I can use this! Starlight Shield!

The starlight shield makes Zeth glow and provides him with a little seeing light. He kicks the doll off of him and then runs to the door but it’s locked when the room is dark.

Zeth: Figures that it’s locked when you can’t see. Gotta close the safe then.

Zeth tries to slow down the doll with his star shards but since his shield lowers his offensive strength, it does not cut through.

Zeth: Hand to hand it is then.

Zeth charges at the doll and the doll has become more aggressive as they begin to punch each other.

Zeth: Even with my shield, these punches hurt. This doll is powerful.

Zeth tries to get around the doll but its speed has increased too.

Zeth: Maybe I can use a ranged ability. Chains of the Volcano Demon!

The magic chains wrap around the handle on the open door of the safe. However, with one less arm to use, the clown doll rapidly punches Zeth with little resistance.

Though he took a lot of damage, Zeth closes the safe and the room lights up.

Zeth releases his Starlight Shield and destroys the doll’s head with a punch.

Zeth jumps back and away from the doll. He is bloody from all the damage he took from the doll’s attacks.

The doll’s head grows back.

Zeth: Okay, now it’s time we take this battle up a notch.

Zeth then smirks.

Narrator: Zeth now has the room lit up and the door unlocked. How will the battle continue?
