Boss: Slogra and Gaibon

 * Characteristics:On their own, Slogra will try to stab or shoot a fireball with his spear, and Gaibon will try to shoot fireballs diagonally downwards. Both fireballs can be blocked with shields.  Occasionally, Gaibon will snatch Slogra and try to drop him from above, making a downward thrust.  After taking enough damage, Slogra will drop his spear and change to attack with his sharp mouth, and Gaibon will turn red and shoot fireballs faster, just like in their Super Castlevania IV debut.
 * Strategy:From this battle you shall learn the basic tactics of fighting a dual boss - focus on either first. A Leather Shield is enough to block the fireballs, and the easier job is to stab Slogra to his losing.  An Axe is effective when both are airborne, or if Gaibon is left alone.
