Physics The Greatest Magic

Chapter 161 - 3rd Floor Boss

"Y-Yes..." John replied with a trembling voice 

[Master can be scary when she wants to... I better be more careful...] 

Just thinking back on the punishments that he had received before sent chills down his spine. 

"Everyone place your hand somewhere on me, we're getting out of here." 

Once everyone's hand was safely placed on him, john cast 'Levite' and at the same time, gathered air beneath them 

The air got denser and denser and eventually raised them into the air. 

As they left the pit and the distance from them to the ground got larger, Serena spoke up 

"J-John? What's this?" She asked as she looked down 

Surprisingly enough she wasn't clinging on to him like before, she seemed to be getting over her fear of heights, but her legs were still trembling as the wind was transparent, it was hard to see the platform without magic perception. 

"I gathered wind in the form of a platform to easily carry everyone up" 

John could see a door at the far end of the desert, it should take them a few minutes 

"You can do that?" Ariel curiously asked 

"Fortunately, yes." 

"Whenever I try, I'm not able to generate enough power to lift myself that far off the ground... if I generate a large amount, I'm sent flying..." 

[I'm more concerned for your safety...] 

"That's because of levite" 

"The spell which affects the thing called gravalty?" Serena asked 

"It's called gravity, and yes. I never really got to explain it to you too huh? I also never explained it to those adventurers... Thankfully they all got drunk and forgot about it, although if they see me again..." 

"Gravity, Gravalty, what's the difference?" Serena asked 

"I'm pretty sure Gravity doesn't have an L and has an I" Said John 

"So when are you going to teach us this gravity spell?" Ariel asked with an excited look 

"Hm... After we conquer the dungeon, explaining it is annoying." 

"Thank you, John!" Said Ariel with a happy look 

After hearing that Ariel then started muttering a few words as she with a satisfied smile one her face 

"gravity... I'll finally be able to complete 'that'..." 

[That? Why do I feel like I've just committed a mistake?]

 The group had finally reached the door to the boss room, it didn't take more than 3 minutes thanks to John's flying wind platform 

"Is everyone ready?" John asked 

The three nodded and so he opened the door. 

From the outside, they could see an edge and another bridge which led to an arena. Only this time the arena was much bigger than before. The sky and desert was completely closed off due to the wall and ceiling 

"Let me guess, the arena is a sand pit, and there's going to be a giant sand monster in the middle." Said Serena as she walked in 

"You could at least act more afraid." Said John as he followed behind 

"Serena's afraid of heights but not giant man-eating monsters..." Ariel muttered 

"I-I'm not afraid of heights!" 

"Mhm, sure." 

"It's okay to have things you're afraid of." 

"... Let's just go deal with this, quickly." 

As the group walked inside and crossed the bridge, they could sense the movement of something inside of the sand pit which was ahead of them. 

"Great... Giving the monster the advantage like always... heh... I can't wait to conquer you." Serena muttered 

[Someone looks full of energy; I'll just act like I never heard any of that.] 

As they stood in front of the pit of sand, they began to wonder how exactly they'd defeat whatever that thing was. 

"You three will work together from now on." Said Master sylvia with a straight face 

If she was suggesting for the three to work together, then that could only mean that the monster was strong. 

"Then... No more jokes, we're going to have to get serious." Said John as he adjusted his gloves and clenched his fist 

"Obviously." Said Serena as she put on her hat 

[Putting on her hat is the same as being serious? Darn it... I didn't even get the appreciate the elf ears for long enough... I was too focused on the floor...] 

Ariel who saw that everyone was getting in battle mode, tapped the ground with the bottom of her staff and as she did 

The ground started to shake even more before a giant centipede came out of it. It kept it's head submerged while it's body and legs could be seen moving around on the Sand Area 

"Okay... I have a plan." Said John as he saw this 

"What's the plan?" Ariel asked 

"I was about to ask the same thing..." Muttered Serena 

"Hm... both of you, grab on to my shoulders." 

"Huh?" 

"Okay?" 

As the two grabbed to his shoulders, John cast the same spell he had used before and lifted them into the air 

As the three stood on the platform directly above the sand pit, Serena finally asked the question 

"W-Wait, aren't we supposed to be fighting the boss?" Serena asked 

"Ariel, Serena do you two trust me?" John asked 

They looked a little confused by john's sudden question but both quickly replied 

"I do" Serena replied with a straight face 

"Of course," Ariel also replied with a straight face 

[They didn't have to be that honest...] 

"G-Good... Then, begin charging up one of your strongest spells, I'm going to get that centipede to come straight up here, on my signal, fire the spell straight into it's mouth." 

[It's scales will be hard to penetrate, although I most likely could... We're supposed to work as a team, it won't matter if we don't do it together] 

"A-Alright..." Said Serena as she looked down 

"Understood." Said Ariel 

"But if we fall..." Serena muttered 

"You better catch us." Ariel continued 

"Leave that to me." John said with a smile 

Darkness clouded his eyes before he suddenly vanished. Leaving only a trace of darkness behind, seeing this the two girls made the same dumbfounded look as usual
