:You will encounter some Gaibons, which, unlike Werewolf and Minotaur, are the same as the one met earlier, yielding little EXP and no drop. Use the save room and run through some similar Slogras, and prepare for a tough fight.

:Like in many games, Death has two forms. At first he starts his usual mini-scythe trick, but will also summon two green balls chasing you. After a while he will call back the orbs, and start shooting green skulls as well as summoning two blades. His second form is like a skeletal being holding two hand scythes, but he will either throw one forward, or use both for a downward swing.

:A holy weapon is effective, and something to deal with small scythes can be better. Dodge carefully and you will earn '''Eye of Vlad''', the final piece.
