It is the year 2022, the year where VR was more popular than ever before, with Akihiko Kayaba's Sword Art Online being the main talk of it all...
Right as I'm pulling him towards me, I bring up my leg for a kick. However, I quickly notice that my leg started getting surrounded by a faint blue aura, meaning that I most likely just unlocked one of the basic [Martial Arts] skills accidently.
I soon manage to land the charged up kick straight onto his stomach, which quickly pushes him back a few feet away from me.
{Flashback End...}
I soon charged up the [Martial Arts] skill that I used on Hakurou earlier, with my right leg soon getting surrounded with a faint blue aura.

Stilla: Alright then, you should mainly target the top side of the boulder, reason being that it is easier to apply force when you're on top of it, and breaking the top will also break a lot from the sides.
{Flashback End...}
Seeing that the boss only had a sliver of HP left, I then proceed to kick the top of the hammer away from the group of players and down straight towards the boss's head as hard as I could.
Asterios the Taurus King: ROAAAAAAAAR....!!!
The boss soon exploded into millions of blue fragments, with the congratulations screen appearing right above it.

Aincrad Standard Time, 1:12 PM...Floor 2 - Labyrinth (Boss Room)
Rimuru's POV
Soon after the true second floor boss finally died, I thankfully managed to land back down on the ground as safe as one possibly could after jumping up so high. However, I almost stumbled back a bit, fortunately being caught by Agil.
Rimuru: Phew..thanks for that.
Agil chuckles a bit and smiles.

Agil: No problem, you guys were truly amazing out there.
Soon after that, Koharu, Kirito, and Asuna walked over to us while everyone else in the boss room was celebrating the second floor boss's defeat.
