[Congratulations player Alisnair on being the first player to defeat Tutorial Hidden Boss: Human Puppet Ver. 4.

 Elias ignored the new notification, having expected it. His focus was on the chest, and the rewards inside.

 As he opened the chest, he couldn't help but wonder what was inside.

 "Maybe new Weapon Skills? Or Magic Skills? Or even new weapons? Maybe something new?" He was feeling excited and opened the chest and found …

 6 Crystal. The only difference from the ones before was the fact it was slightly larger.

 "Is that it?" Elias felt like he was being scammed. But maybe the Crystal will do something different than what he expected.

 Well, he was wrong. The only difference were the new Crystal gave him 50 points instead of 10. A greater increase than the previous one but still, nothing different than before.

 "Maybe the game just doesn't want me to beat up the next boss too easily," he jokingly guessed. Still, the next boss would probably be the last one. Something he guessed from the fact he was given 5 hours instead of the usual one to prepare.

 "And likely to be the hardest one too." there are no good reason for the long preparation time unless the boss would be the hardest.

 "Five hours." He hummed, "I should see if I can push my mastery of any of my Skills. If I can't, I should just face the final boss right now."

 With his decision made, Elias picked the different Skill Books, trying to see if he could push his mastery, allowing his Weapon and Magic Skills to become stronger. Unfortunately, despite spending half an hour, he didn't manage to accomplish the goal.

 "Looks like I can't do anything about that. Even with my Intelligence above 100, it still didn't help," he muttered helplessly.

 Elias pondered over it before deciding to push through with his decision. 

 "System, I wish to fight the next boss now."

[Continue challenge?

Reminder: There is still time left to practice.

YES/NO]

Elias did not hesitate to press yes.

[Congratulations player Alisnair on being the first player to challenge Tutorial Final Hidden Boss: Human Puppet Ver.5.

[Player Alisnair can choose the difficulty of the Final Boss. Facing the Final Boss at a higher difficulty will yield better rewards but if player is defeated, player would only receive rewards from completing 4 Boss Challenge 

Difficulty: Standard/Medium/Hard/Insane/Hell/God]

 "Hhmm, what difficulty should I face?" He was certain he could defeat Standard difficulty easily while Medium would give him some trouble. Hard would be a decent challenge and Insane would be very difficult. He didn't even want to think about Hell difficulty, much less God. He did not think he could defeat the Human Puppet of that level.

 Yet, just as his finger hover above Insane, he accidentally touched the Godl difficulty.

 "Crap!" he cursed, hoping to see the confirmation, asking him whether he wanted to pick God or not. To his relief, there was one. 

[Confirm: Yes/No]

Yet, as he was about to press no, his fingers slipped on thin air and he accidently pressed Yes.

 "No, I'm not a goddamn masochist!" he yelled, watching as the Final Hidden Boss appeared.

 Then, in front of him, a behemoth-size Human Puppet appeared. About the height of three men and as wide as four, the titan that is his opponent has 20 freaking arms, each the size of a Human Puppet. 

 If that wasn't enough, it also hold weapons, and had Aura encasing each of its weapons, because of course it can. As if the game didn't hate him enough by giving him the Final Boss to end all Final Boss, he watched as the Final Hidden Boss used both Weapon and Magic Skills!

 "Ahaahaaahaa! I'm going to die!" Elias exclaimed with maybe too much exuberant, as he eyed the opponents he really didn't want to face. At all. Once more, he cursed his rotten luck that he managed to do the impossible and had his fingers slipped on nothing. Or maybe the devs decided to screw with him. That is also a possibility.

 "Observation." it might not work, but with his Intelligence above 100, it might. Elias was already grasping for straws at this point and he hoped to at least know the difficulty of this opponent.

To his surprise, it worked. To his dismay, it worked.
