Seth didn't quite know how much ti went by but he had crossed 28 bridges and t another two bosses by the ti his level went up again. The dungeon also had gone through a peculiar change.
As Seth kept getting lower and lower on the bridges, a dim light started shining in the abyss below and the naming convention of the monsters also changes, with beings like "Cruel Dawn" and "Splendid Dawn" becoming the main cast of monsters attacking the bridges.
These monsters were based on the two bosses he had t previously. Cruel Dawn was the na of the first real boss he t. It was technically a version of the twilight creatures, but instead of a skin that looked pale with dark ashes rubbed on it, it was covered in grizzly scales with reptilian features distorting the face. It also had three snake-like tails that ended in scorpion stingers.
Despite its tankiness and size, the necessity to protect the bridges was a bigger hurdle to the pair of Imugi and Blacksmith, than being able to defeat the beast. Its massive size, several limbs, and its constant attempt to hang itself onto the bridge had made it an annoying boss fight, even for Seth.
At least the bridges also went through a change and started becoming more splendid.

He had to admit that the boss had a better weapon mastery, but that was all. The blacksmith was able to use his exotic mix of skills such as the short-range teleportation of and
