The time finally came to save Leongar, but not before upgrading the Dragon Fire ability to the max. There was a brief fake out where you simply restore him using the soul fragments, but then he gets possessed by the alien again and you have to fight. His attacks are as vicious as his regular form, but this time around there's a second stage to the fight, where Forgo separates from him and starts shooting energy waves and projectiles at you while you try to dogde Leon's attacks. This fight is really challenging, and I faile a couple of times, so I had to have a Maxim Tomato on hand. I eventually beat the second form where the Ice power turned out to be quite useful since you don't take damage on block and hurt your foes. After defeating Leongar's second stage Forgo separated again and used his nasty fusion ability with a butterfly to turn into Morpho Knight. He has a huge variety of attacks including teleports, huge sword attacks, mixed with fast pattern changing combos and a ton of different projectiles. The ice shield saved me in this fight again and I managed to beat him, but not before learning that continuing costs gold and you thankfully start from this form. This earned me the Morpho Knight Sword Blueprint and a happy ending for Leongar and his subjects. The Morpho Sword has similar properties and moves to the Meta Knight one, but it's true potential is unlocked when you use charge attacks - then you have a bigger sword and can shoot flame tornadoes with charge hits, but I've found that in the heat of battle it's often difficult to get it to that stage. Then I tried the newly unlocked Ultimate Cup Z, where you fight all the Phantom bosses in a row and you don't even have Maxim tomatoes between battles leaving you much more limited on resources. During the Meta Knight fight I learned that the doge with the Morpho Sword is an invincible teleport, which is quite useful. After beating Morpho Knight again, I faced a new variation of Elfilis - the Chaos Elfilis. This one had a bunch of new attacks, but I learned that after a perfect dodge Kirby gets an instant charge attack, which made this fight manageable and will make a lot of the previous ones too. This will make the Morpho Sword much more useful in combat too. Unfortunately after defeating him he turned into an orb, which devoured me and drained my remaining health. I was out of gold too, so I couldn't complete this challenge. I plan to grind for a bit, upgrade the weapons and give this another try.
