Ditching Woodward

"The spring holidays were wonderful, I had no idea that this was the last time I would be with Mum Bernadette, but I still loved the time with my friends, having as much fun as I could, and when we got back to school we got back to our daily rehearsals with Croix, at least on my part and in my free time I was playing, since my mum had even given me the MagicStation and I was using it to focus on finding the seventh word, very tempted to chase after it, I was very close to the end of the game and had no idea how much more complex it was than I'd imagined just to know what the seventh word was.

I'm already on the last quest, but there's no way I can find the last word, I've done all the side quests, not a single extra path or anything, I've unravelled this entire game, do I need to reset a few times, that must be it, the final boss, I'm well equipped to face her, I've reached level 90 with my character, this is going to be such a wash, I've been farming a lot thanks to playing games with Becca.
The final dialogue has arrived, she's staring at me and giggling, all evil, but she doesn't even ask me to wait, I've got all the best, I stare at the screen and the final battle begins, she's casting magic and I'm already dodging and casting mine against, which I can already see the boss's life bar decreasing a lot with the impact.

"Perfect! This is going to be so easy" I say excitedly.

"I just think that for a final boss fight this is just fooling us, she must be hiding something, I don't doubt it at all" Is it really Becca?

I attack her more often and when her life bar is depleted, a scene begins and the boss herself activates a second form, which was to be expected, in this second form she's much stronger and bigger, which I'm already preparing for, I even managed to defeat the first form without taking any damage, now comes the interesting part.
I dodge as best I can, I even take an attack and the damage is no joke, even with my high level and my defence equipment being the best in the game I still take a lot of damage, I launch an attack on it and I can see that in this form it's now taking a lot less damage, I'll have to be patient to get a better gap to attack.

"Now the real battle has begun" I say excitedly.

"What this is going to take is no joke, I just want to see what the reward will be at the end, we haven't even completed the game to find out" said Leyland.

"Look, you two are doing a very good job of co-operating. Go on, Chariot, defeat this thing and show us the ending."

Getting life out of this final boss isn't easy, I throw charged arrows and at most they do some damage, noticing that there are some areas that are weak spots, I hit just those places and then use the power of the axe from the second word to attack at the moment the boss is stunned, which takes a little life out, in these attacks, I could see the boss's life bar decreasing.
Concentrating, I continue to follow the same pattern of attacks, when I reach the halfway point of the life bar, she starts to escape more from the arena where we are, it's kind of strange that she does this since she keeps flying around, launching more attacks and I suffer more damage, come on Chariot this is for the seventh word

"If you die here, you'll have to start all over again" said Parker.

"Not so much, I've even kept a reserve of Phoenix feathers, if I die I'll end up in the same place with half my life, I'm already well prepared for this, I knew it might not be an easy battle, so I'm going to top up my life so I can attack with more magic" I say as I concentrate on the battle.

By activating another potion I manage to hit her using other words and thus knock the boss to the ground, which makes me give her more attacks until her life gets weaker, now at the end the boss seems to have become more desperate, she goes after me, even pushing me and throwing me against the walls, which causes me to suffer an absurd amount of damage.
I've barely restored my life and she's already like this, the worst thing is that in this part she's going to get faster, so I stop attacking, I just watch the pattern of attacks, which I can't even have Becca's support anymore, since in this second form she's completely deactivated, it's me alone in the battle, I end up taking a lot of damage, I'm close to dying here, I don't want to risk a Phoenix feather, the boss has very low life too
