Physics The Greatest Magic

Chapter 149 - The Right Door.

As the three waited for John to say it's clear, the adventurers who watched started to chatter amongst themselves 

"What are they waiting for?" 

"Isn't that door going to bring them back to the beginning?" 

"Maybe they know something?" 

Those who were trying to move to other paths, continued, while those who were watched, paid close attention 

"We have a few eyes on us..." Serena muttered 

"It's fine, I don't mind helping them on to the next floor." Said John 

Serena who heard this let out a sigh before saying 

"That's just the kind of guy you are." 

"Careful, sighing too much is bad for your mental health" 

"And whose fault do you think that belongs to?" 

"She's right john. There are times where you make us worry too much" Ariel muttered 

"Ah... Sorry, Ariel." Said John as he stared straight at Ariel 

"I-It's fine..." Ariel replied as she looked away slightly flustered 

[Cute...] 

"Oi, where's my apology, and Ariel don't let his innocent face fool you." Serena intervened 

"so... *cough* rry." Said john as he looked away 

"Why are you looking away, and what's with the cough?! Do it properly." 

"Hmm... okay" John muttered as he occasionally glanced at Serena 

He grabbed on to her hands and stared straight at her pure silver eyes 

"Serena... Sorry." Said John with pure innocent eyes 

"W-What... I-It's fine..." Said Serena as she lowered her head and used her hat to hide her face 

John said it in a way to tease Serena, but when he actually got that reaction, he was flustered. 

Serena then looked up and showed him a calm expression while looking down at her hands which he was still holding 

"A-Ah, sorry." Said John as he let go of the hands 

[It backfired... I meant to tease her so why am I getting flustered?!] 

"You don't have to apologise..." Serena muttered 

[Eh?] 

Suddenly, John could feel someone tugging at his sleeve. 

It was Ariel, she kept staring at John, John wondered if she was mad at for not being a part of the conversation? 

"Ariel, what's wrong" John asked 

"Nothing..." 

Her lips formed a pout as she turned away 

[She's definitely sulking isn't she? Seriously, have these two always been this cute?] 

[Yes.] 

[Wha-] 

John was so freaked out that he nearly jumped off the edge 

[How many times are you going to forget my existance?] 

[How many times do I have to tell you not to just suddenly reply like that?] 

"John? Is something wrong?" Ariel asked 

"Nope, everything's fine." John replied 

"Excuse me." 

An unfamiliar voice came from behind them, It was another squad which John noticed approach him. 

The one who called out, seemed to be the party leader. Short curly blue hair and red eyes, his frame was medium, he wasn't big nor small and he had a soft aura around him. He had a sword on his waist in a fancy Scabbard and wore a red knight outfit with a blue robe. 

His age looked to be around 16 judging from john's perspective. 

[Blue hair and red eyes... Fake? Chunibyo? Ah... wait, this is another world, so it's most likely all real... Wow..." 

John couldn't help but admire the young man in front of him, his entire appearance screamed out Chunibyo. 

"Yes?" John asked 

"Me and my party have been here for an hour now, and couldn't help but notice that you and your party have been silently waiting here for something. I just wanted to warn you that this door leads back to the start, another party has already tried." 

There were three others in his party, a boy and two girls. The boy was around his age, height and frame, most likely child hood friends. 

The boy had Short brown hair and wore a more armour over his clothes, with a brown robe. He carried daggers and seemed a lot more normal than his leader. 

One of the girls had long braided green hair and wore goggles while the other had long purple hair tied up in a pony tail. They both carried a staff and gave off the vibe of strong magicians. 

"No, it's fine. This door leads to the boss room after all." Said John 

Serena who heard this face palmed herself 

"How can you be so sure?" 

"I can't tell you that, I'm afraid." 

"Hmm... Is it alright with you if we head in too?" 

"Sure, 2 parties taking on the boss is always better than one." John replied 

"Really? Thank you! My name is Azure, and you?" The boy asked as he extended his arm to john 

"Call me John." John replied as he shook the boy's hand 

"Wait a minute." Said the green haired girl with glasses 

"What's wrong, Ayda?" Azure asked 

"Aren't you being too trusting? There's no guarantee that they know it'll lead to the next floor" She asked azure 

"If you don't believe us then look for another way" Said Serena 

"Unfortunately, the only one who can go through all the other paths, is our idiot leader." Said Ayda 

[Hm... So he is strong.] 

"Then don't complain, and put some faith in our idiot leader." 

"Oi." 

[Why am I being dragged into this] 

"Huh? I'm not complaining" 

"Now, now, why don't we calm down..." Said Ariel as she tried to intervene 

"She's right, we're asking for help, we have no right to complain." Said the purple haired girl on their party 

"Fine..." Serena and Ayda simultaneously muttered. 

Because the two parties had drawn attention by waiting in front of the door, other parties started to approach. 

One was being led by a lady who had an intimidating aura around her, while the other was being run by a man who could tower over John 

"What's going on here?" The lady asked 

"Great." Serena muttered 

"Oh, the door is ready, we can finally go." Said John as he opened the door. 

It was glowing a white light, but john could see blue with deprehendre. It was definitely the right one. 

John and his party passed through the door and walked inside 

At the same time, Everyone turned back all the way back to the beginning of the pack 

"They're not there? Don't tell me!? It's the right door!? How?!" The lady asked 

"See, I told you we could trust him." Said Azure as he walked inside 

"W-Wait for me." Said Ayda as she followed behind 

Slowly other parties began to notice, so without wasting time, the lady walked inside with her party 

"Huh? The boy and the other parties which were in front of the door are gone." 

"RUN YOU IDIOT! THAT'S THE RIGHT DOOR!" An adventurer shouted 

Because of that, all the other parties started to run at it, but before they could reach it. The door closed. 

"DAMN IT! IT WONT OPEN!" Shouted the same adventurer as he pulled at it 

"Hey... Wasn't that kid like the one we heard in rumours?" An adventurer muttered amongst his party members 

"You mean the S-Rank one that saved all the people in the beach?" 

"I heard he wasn't an adventurer but a wondering magician?" 

"You mean... He was the real deal!?" 

"He guessed the right door... Damn it, why didn't I notice sooner?!" 

One by one, the adventurers regretted looking down on the party which had passed by them.
