Chapter 93: CHAPTER 93 – The Hidden Boss.
Those words echoed in their minds until it finally sank...
They exchanged looks and seeing the same dumbfounded expressions on their companion\'s faces, they knew that it was not one of them who was just hearing things. All of them heard the same thing, which meant that none of them were hearing things and Alice actually said that.
They just looked in Alex\'s direction with a comical expression on their faces. They were looking towards the direction Alex flew off, even though their view was blocked by the monsters.
They had an expression that had relief, happiness, dumbfoundedness, and many other complex emotions mixed with it, making it look quite comical.
The positive emotions were there because they knew they were saved, and they had cleared the gate. They were going to be the first guild to clear an S-rank gate alone, that too a special one.
But they were dumbfounded, shocked, amazed, and awed as they thought of what Alex had done.
It didn\'t even take Alex and minute before he was done with the boss, the same boss that almost made them piss their pants with just a look.
If someone asked them how they viewed Alex, then their answer would be a single word – Monster.
But overall, they were happy that they were going to leave the gate alive but looked like they were celebrating a bit too early.
Deep inside the volcano, a golden pair of eyes opened with a snap and there was rage bubbling inside of them.
"RRROOOOAAARRRR"
A thunderous roar was heard, and it shook the whole area.
The joy in the raiders\' eyes vanished as it was replaced with dread. Simple pure dread.
Even Frank was not spared since the pressure that descended upon all of them was nothing to scoff at but before they could fall unconscious or get harmed by the pressure, they felt another pressure crashing with the pressure, dissipating the last pressure altogether.
They turned toward Alice who had helped them get rid of the pressure, but Alice was not looking at them, instead, she was looking towards the volcano that seemed like it was about to erupt any second now.
Then they heard Alice murmur….
"Looks like the real boss is about to come out…..." Alice murmured with a serious expression.
But then something shocking happened as all the beasts in the surroundings lowered their heads and their bodies were trembling nonstop.
The raiders were shocked as they saw this scene, and they all had just one question, \'What kind of creature could cause these many A-rank and S-rank beasts to tremble?\'
They didn\'t know how soon they were going to get the answer to that question.
.............................................…..
"These cheap tricks work only on people weaker than you," Alex spoke as the pressure descended upon him, just like everyone.
Enjoy tales from m-vl _emp _yr.
Alex then waved his hand and the pressure from his surroundings disappeared, not like it was doing anything to him in the first place.
There was a short silence before the volcano started to tremble, the lava that was held inside of it started to flow out, although at a very slow pace. The sky above started crackling with yellow, instead of blue lightening.
*Boom**Boom*
Some lightning strikes fell on the volcano, causing it to tremble more vigorously, and then...
*BOOM*
The volcano erupted, sending lava balls flying everywhere, those lava balls moved toward the ground at a very high speed, and they didn\'t differentiate between friends and enemies.
However, none of the raiders, Ann, Alice, or Alex were harmed by those lava balls. Alex would just shoot a small arrow of destruction toward the balls heading toward him, making them disappear even before they could touch him.
Ann had already moved close to Alice, although she could cut the lava balls or just punch them away. But she would be revealing her position by doing that, so she decided to move closer to Alice and let Alice take care of those things.
Alice would just blast them off towards the monsters with a beam of fire.
Noctura, who was hiding in the rocky plane was safe as well, as she just jumped away from the place where the debris was going to fall.
The monsters, on the other hand, were not safe at all, the lava balls were crashing into them, and although they didn\'t kill them, it did make them injured or seriously injured for the weaker ones.
But then the top of the volcano was blasted off as if something from the inside had pushed it out.
"RRROOOOAAAAARRRRR!!"
A large pillar of fire and lightning mixed together was shot from the inside of the volcano along with a loud roar.
Then a large shadow shot out from inside of the volcano, directly into the dark clouds, out of everyone\'s sight.
The raiders had their eyes up in the sky as they were unable to catch the figure of the one that shot out of the volcano. The beasts, however, still didn\'t look up and stayed down, keeping their heads bowed.
While everyone had their own difficulties, Alex was standing nonchalantly in the air, without any tension whatsoever as he was looking at the hidden boss.
The clouds were not something that could stop him from looking at the beast, but he let the beast think that it was hidden and no one could see it.
Alex could tell that the beast was observing the whole field as even if it was enraged, it was still an SS-rank beast and it was not going to act on impulse, though everything had a limit.
The beast was larger than the boss, with a wingspan of 25 meters and a length of 24 meters. It had menacing dark red scales with some shining yellow scales that crackled with yellow-colored electricity.
The beast was a wyvern just like the boss and from what Alex could guess, it was probably the mother of the beast as Alex could tell it was a female.
The beast had shining yellow eyes that almost looked golden, its claws alone were long enough to cleave a human without much effort as it was around a meter long if not longer.
That wyvern was large enough to crush a human with its feet, however, it was not large enough to not feel pain from being pierced by Alex\'s simple sword, which was enough for him.
Still, Alex could just use aura or mana to make the sword larger, but he was going to fight the wyvern with magic, after all, they were going to fight in the air.
Alex kept observing the beast while it was observing the battlefield, but then Alex saw the beast stop flying as it just floated while flapping its large wings.
Alex could see the beast looking at a fixed spot with its slit eyes narrowed before it opened its jaws, causing yellow electricity to crackle around its jaw while its throat started turning red.
Alex could tell what it was trying to do without thinking much as he had already seen that attack once.
Alex followed the wyvern\'s line of sight and his eyes narrowed as he found out what that wyvern was trying to do.
Alex didn\'t even wait for a millisecond and directly shot toward the wyvern at full speed, though he had his stats limited to SS as he didn\'t want to end this fight too early.
Not after looking at what the beast was trying to do....
