"The arena started to change as the walls to the side and front opened".
Prepare yourself for the first round it'll involve waves of enemies that would love to take a bite out of you"the enderborn said as a throne made up of random parts that seemed to belong to tools was placed down behind him by enderlings who quickly left, he took a seat without further notice and observed the dragon that was unaware of its inevitable fate".

"40 enderlings came out of the opening and rushed towards us, I went to fly but quickly remembered my wings were snipped so instead I fire 2 EB into the group engulfing a good chunk as the rest spread out.
I gave one of them a appraisal as we got ready for a throw down".
{Enderling: End spawn that are covered in eyes and have the ability to teleport, they are considered corrupted distant descendants of the enderman, while they may not be as threatening as a enderman they come in numbers and sport their own evolutionary lines, they rank at beginner lv 3}
"How helpful, I jump high in the air and landed onto one of the enderlings in the group of 28 getting a sickening crunch as it body was rendered a broken mess, I swinged around in a circle my tail landing it mark onto any unlucky enderling nearby and sending them flying.
Axol teleported into a roll slide under and out from under me as he threw his axe end of roll while getting up getting the axe embedded into a enderling head, he teleported to and from the battlefield putting the sword to good use as limbs and heads went flying, a enderling teleported from behind and tried to jump on him only to get impaled on his sword as he brought it to his front catching another enderling teleport, now with two corpses on his sword he swung with more force than I thought possible and cut through the two enderling and severed the head of one next to him.
I pounced onto a enderling and mauled them to death with my teeth then bite the leg and used it as a weapon combined with my claws as i swinged and clawed my way through the enderlings around me, I throwed the body into one that was about to teleport as I swung my claws into three of the enderlings to my side tearing through their bodies due to my high skill and strength that's when I got an idea, I temporarily stood up on two legs then slam my forelegs down with enough force to produce a shockwave that blew away nearby enderlings, I continued to do it until I got a notification for a new skill just as the last enderling was felled".
{You learned shockwave lv 1}
{Wave 1/5 complete commencing wave two}
Bring it on bitch"the next wave was even bigger this time having 80 enemies that was a mix of 20 enderlings 40 endermites and 20 enderman? Well this will be the first time I kill one since they were very absent in the forest for some reason, I did what I did before such as jumping high into the air but with a twist, the moment I landed onto the ground a shockwave was sent out sending endermites and enderlings into the air I didn't get any enderman due to them teleporting out of the blast zone.
I felt a punch to the side of my head that moved it a bit, when I tried to attack my assailant he disappeared I felt more and more hits come from blind spots and angles, I bit and scratched even swinged my tail around just barely missing catching a enderman who soon disappeared.
Getting frustrated at this back and forth I went for a shockwave just to stop and swipe my claws towards the direction of where I heard a teleport catching the enderman off guard and giving it no time to tele as it head lost it place on its shoulders" that was annoying as fuck but I know how to fight them now, I wonder what appraisal will give me?
{Enderman: Believed to be the descendants of the builders that escaped to the end to avoid their artificial apocalypse these tall humanoids can be found in almost any environment, they can teleport and rank at lv 5}
"I applied what I did before with great effect, from facades to fake outs I took out the enderman around me cleaning house as a enderman sailed passed me lacking a head as axol teleported on my back and swung his axe into the face of a enderman that was in mid jump breaking the axe and causing the body to spin in a wild arc.
I gave him another as I slashed at a enderman but it was a fake out as I swung my tail towards the area it thought was safe to tele at reducing it to a purple pulp, for a lv 5 they die quite easily tho that can be chocked up to my stats and the fact axol has weapons.
The fight was basically over as we killed off the stragglers, we weren't devoid of injuries tho my scale durability was at 50 and STA at 600 and axol sported cuts and bruises but other than that nothing serious for now, the endocylopedal despite it hiding away most of the time was able to help even if a little by diverting agro".
{Wave 2/5 complete commencing wave three}
Not even a break? Come on if this keeps up we might actually die!"the wave was in progress but just as I was getting worried I realized something, wouldn't fauna control work on these enemies as well? it's worth a try either that or we fight like hell.
The wave finish spawning in and holy shit! There was a lot of them like a whomping 160, how da fuck do you survive this I really do hope this works!
The wave consisted of 80 endermites 40 enderlings 30 enderman and 10 endorcrux! Well shit, I stopped axol from moving forward and had us move back to conserve and gain back lost stamina the only saving grace being that the wave didn't bum rush us but instead took a more methodical approach towards us with the endermites being at the front with the enderlings following in behind, the two serving as cannon fodder while the endorcrux laid in the far back with endermen using them as mounts.
So yeah now we got endorcrux mounts and to add insult to injury they were armed with fucking spears! And here I thought axol was the special one, I felt a displeased presence nearby looking to my left I saw axol giving me that kind of look someone about to crash out would give" your still better than them!
"For the first time in history he gave me a nod and a distorted enderman chirp as the first two waves of enemies set upon us but by then I already gained enough STA back for what I was about to do, I never tried to control this many before since the most I controlled at once was usually 1 and I don't even know what will happen if it levels up.
Activating the skill my STA depleted quickly as I started to take control of some of the endermites and enderlings, giving me control of 20 endermites and 20 enderlings I gave them the command and allies became enemies as my newly obtained miniature army clashed with the bigger one.
However I wasn't delusional that stunt almost exhausted me completely and the army I made will be over run in no time but the good news and my possible saving grace is the notification I got".
{Minor fauna control lv 3}
{Heart of ender fragment potential 2% you gain 80 STA and 80 HP.
new skill obtained subordinate absorption lv 1: Gain 50 STA per subordinate you absorb, excessive use will start temporarily using STA or HP depending on amount left.}
"Ok well that's convenient as shit but hey I'm not turning it down!, I need to use it carefully since I don't have that many subordinates so I'll just remove a couple endermites since they're mostly useless anyway.
I pull 5 endermites from the back and I activated the skill by thinking about how the introductory boss boss absorbed them but different such as them being turned into energy to replenish my spent STA, the skill activated and the endermites ceased to be as my reserves replenish a bit.
Seeing this revelation I began to abuse it getting rid of 10 endermite bringing me up to a nice 985 STA, the leftover enemies I converted to my side did get overwhelmed eventually but they put in some good work, with 30 enderman 10 endorcrux and 40 endermites left I was feeling a bit confident.
{Scale durability:45/80}
Ow!"I said to one of the enderman that clocked me on the snout, they teleported but I already predicted where they would go, swinging my tail full circle I caught them off guard and promptly crushed the enderman with my tail, I looked to see the endermites and enderman not on mounts approach fully this time.
{Shockwave lv 1: Generate a blast towards a directed area that does 25 DMG combined with your atk stat, cost 40 STA per use}
Ok....so I got to blasting sending the endermites and any unlucky enderman that weren't fast enough flying dead, then the endorcrux mounts arrived and I had to move back to avoid a spear that impaled the ground before me, axol appeared, took the spear and disappeared leaving me to deal with the 10 mounts".
The fuck! Wheres my team!?"I quickly jumped out of the way of a charge and rolled on the ground narrowly avoiding another charge as the battle became a game of me playing chicken as I ran around like a jackass throwing ender balls and shockwaves when I'm given a chance as the endorcrux tried to turn me to paste all the while spears soared through the air either missing me or just scratching me as my scale durability got whittled down meanwhile axol was playing on toddler difficulty as he picked off stragglers.
The endocylopedal also done fucked off somewhere so that's just wonderful!, I was gonna fire off a shockwave when a spear hit me in the stomach knocking me to the ground and when I looked up I saw a endorcrux getting ready to pummel me into the ground, am I gonna be forced to use void overload? If so then imma be pissed".
Squee?
"The endorcrux stopped what it was doing and we both looked to the right of me to see the endocylopedal that show up out of bum fuck nowhere, the moment the endorcrux saw it, it and the other endorcrux froze leaving their riders confused and then.....all hell broke loose!
Like a elephant seeing a mouse they freaked out and began running all over the place even into each which 5/10 knocked the riders off who if they didn't teleport in time would get turned to mulch by the frantic living tanks.
Using this new found discovery I picked up the endocylopedal and walked using it as a herder effectively weaponizing the endorcrux against each other and their riders given how they would attack one another if they feel like their ability to escape was impedded upon, in no time....if you exclude the mess they made I was able to get them stuck in a corner and with a EDB cooked them alive with a odd ender ball thrown into the mix".
I gotta hand it to ya bringing you along was a wonderful idea, I could just kiss you!.....just maybe?
"I heard a chirp looking behind me I saw axol holding a spear covered in purple blood with a pile of bodies behind him, he approached looked at the endocylopedal and with a quick motion took it from my claws and throwed it into the pile, the centipede let out what I assume was a surprise squee as it landed into the pile which turned into sounds of crunching as it realized the gift it was just given".
I would say something about what you did being rude but that would make me a hypocrite, so ready for the next wave instead?"he nodded as we got ready for the next wave leaving the centipede to its meal, what we saw next was not a big wave of enemies waiting to take a bite out of our asses but instead a mini boss fight?, it looked like a real life version of the redstone monstrosity that got a reskin making it look like it was made out of purely endstone while sporting a height of 15ft, how unoriginal the mushroom monstrosity looked better than this!
[Asshole!]
WHAT WAS THAT!
[Nothing]
Thats what I thought!".
{Wave 3/5 complete commencing wave four}
Well I be damned we got a mini boss, a reskin at that too but don't worry I know how to fight it just follow my lead" I was about to make my way over to it when it in a shocking feat of speed started hauling ass stunning us for just a moment but that was enough as it got close enough to throw hands, we leapt out of the way of one of its pillar like arms that would've hurt like hell getting hit by.
The offending appendage breaking up the ground with just one punch, we retaliated, I blew EDB onto it while axol thrusted his spear towards it.
Only my attack did anything with it causing some melting while the spear simply bounced off it tough exterior, seeing me as a bigger threat it focused more on me, I had to jump back again as another fist slammed into the ground tearing more ground up.
I did the only tactical thing and ran away from the mini boss to gain ground with it trying to follow but a spear to the face distracted it allowing me to gain distance and hurl a EB towards it as axol got clear of the blast".
{Ender ball lv 2}
"Wonderful, I hurled another one towards the flaming area and that landed too, this one doing more damage while costing less and I got the chance to take a look at the mini boss which looked worse for wear since it just ate two EB, it tried to run but half it side was melted so all it could muster was a pathetic drag as me and axol advanced upon it and proceed to destroy it with me using EDB.
{Wave 4/5 complete commencing wave five}
This time we got a proper boss fight and I would like to apologize for being offensive I take everything back because holy shit the boss was big with it being a whooping 40ft but still managed to fit perfectly in the coliseum, purple crystal covered the right side of it body with a big one taking root in the middle of it chest.
I would be lying if I said I wasn't a bit afraid because I am, it looked down on us as it raises it right fist bigger than our bodies and slammed it down hard causing purple crystals to erupt out as they headed towards us.
Axol teleported and I leapt out of the way avoiding impalement the sequel, I fired a EB striking it chest but that didn't do shit as the flames burned out harmlessly on it crystal covered chest.
How the fuck do we harm this thing? I went into thought and looked through my skills when I saw something that gave us the chance we need, void rift.
{Void rift lv 2: create a rift from one place to another for quick travel, range is 400ft increases with level ups and the rifts last for 35 seconds, cost 80 sta per use.
Side effect: failing to open a rift or cancelling it before it's created will create a small explosion dealing 40 DMG to nearby things.
Note: if the portal closes and a object is caught in it, it will be sliced in half}
Bingo!
RRRRROOOOOOAAAAARRRRR
"I covered my ears as the endstone monstrosity let out a loud as fuck roar that made my head hurt".
{Hp: 400/440}
Fucking bullshit! Axol we got portals to use follow my lead!"the enderman where ever he was most definitely heard me as he appeared on my back as we took off running towards the boss who took our approach as expected and proceeded to rip chunks of the ground out and hurled them at us, I weaved and dodged through the barrage even sliding on my belly like a seal to avoid a especially large chunk of the ground, I made my way to it legs and began to use void rift around it legs but I wasn't teleporting instead I quickly stopped the formation mid use causing them to grow unstable as they exploded destroying the ground and doing barely any damage but that wasn't the point.
The monstrosity upon finding out the ground below it feet got blown out lost it balance and feel onto all fours right where I want it as the crystals covering it chest just so happen to make contact with a void rift, going through I cancelled the portal cutting through the crystals while also hitting it with a explosion causing it to jurk upwards in pain as it pulsating core got exposed.
Taking this shot I ran with all my might and got to the front where I shot a EB towards it only for it to bring it left arm up to shield it core making the EB useless, before I could do anything else it raises it right arm and starts firing long sharp crystals at us.
I went back to running while coming up with a new plan, I still got STA to spare so I used void rift on it arm covering the chest prioritizing the side effect to see if I could force them away with the explosion but that was proven to be difficult thanks to the crystal barrage and it moving away from me and the rifts upon realizing what I was trying to do.
And just in that moment....I made a mistake, I slipped!".
{Scale durability 0/80 durability has ran out!}
{Hp: 300/440}
"The floor didn't break my back the big ass crystal I got slammed with did and to make matters worse it does bullshit damage too! I might as well be fighting a dark souls boss at least axol got out of dodge.
I rolled just barely dodging another crystal as I got up and ran forward, I saw axol picking up spears he turned to me then pointed towards the boss chest while bringing a spear up, I nodded failing to realize I was in the midst of dodging as another crystal went over my head that would've hit me had I not nodded.
Deciding enough was enough I locked the fuck in and with all me strength went through the onslaught of projectile while taking chip damage, I made it close to the boss and conjured void rifts then went through taking me into the air and in front of the boss as I spammed void rifts across the arm covering its chest then cancelled them creating a chain of explosions that managed to force it arm away from the chest exposing its core, realizing this it swung it right arm towards me I didn't have enough STA for a EB and I wasn't as close as I liked to be to the core to use EDB but those weren't the point...Axol Was!
Axol teleported onto my back and jumped high up into the air as I got absolutely punted into the fucking ground, he with two spears throwed them into the core creating a chain reaction as it exploded causing the boss to jerk and go still as it began to fall..... right on me!
{Hp: 100/440}
Not now, I got to rolling doing what those two women from Prometheus failed to do as I rolled out of the way of the falling boss who shortly after came crashing down on the ground 12 inches away from me".
Did we win?"I said as I rolled into my back tired from the shit we just went through, axol teleported next to me sitting down as I got the notification of the battle being finished".
