On the contrary, I had little problem with 'fiend of 9 worlds'. It was
pretty easy to find the weakiness of this one. It can not be hurt by any
spell ( as I remember ). BUT, you can use the 'armormelt' on it. Once you
summon another monster like 'Godzilli', you can hind all of your party
member and use hit and run skill ( hit, hind, hit, hind, ...  ). I found
it was pretty easy to kill it this way. When I post the original post, I
thought someone could kill the 'beast of 1000 eyes' without losing any
party member. If this is the normal situation, two members die, I thought
I could deal with it. Thanks for your information.
