"For fuck's sake," Davies sighed in anger.
It was obvious that the boss monster; the ice spike bear was coming, and now due to being short of one monster to complete the mission, he would have to fight it and kill it.
"Okay, another change in plans,"
"Get your asses moving, make sure to get to the gate's portal in the next forty minutes," Davies turned to the B-Squad mbers who were still in the barrier that Tisha set up.
"Huh?"
"What about you?"
"What about-" they burst into a cacophony of questions that did a good job of annoying Davies even further.
"Shut up," Davies cut in with a low tone, but it was enough to project his annoyance, as they quickly closed their mouths.
"I'll catch up…"
"After I deal with the boss monster," Davies explained, completely ignoring the sounds of booming footsteps and deafening roars that were getting louder every passing second.
"But-" Teresa tried to protest.
"No buts," Davies cut in imdiately.
"I'd rather not have to deal with a blubbering ssy bunch while fighting that monster,"
"... After all, you guys haven't been very useful thus far," he stated.
The mbers of the B-Squad looked away embarrassed because, in the end, he was kind of right.
While it was true that they had not been totally useless, Davies, as a singular person had done more in this gate than all seven of them put together, so they couldn't find any reasonable way to protest his words and could only keep quiet.
"Well…"
"Get moving already, you dimwits!" Davies's voice ca out a little high because he didn't need them to be quiet and looking around embarrassingly, but to be running towards the entrance to the gate so fast, that their heels should be touching the back of their head as they ran.
After Davies's shout, they quickly ca to their senses and hesitantly began to move away before increasing their pace and running at top speed toward the gate.
Before beginning to move, Tisha had looked back at Davies with a determined look on her face, before moving along with her teammates as they ran towards the gate.
Davies didn't notice as he had already turned back towards the direction of the ice fortress, his annoyance growing by the second.
"Whenever I find out whoever is causing my misfortune,"
"I will stick a rod so far up their ass that their gag reflex will takr effect," Davies promised a world of pain to whoever was controlling his fate right now.
[...]
[What if it's a beautiful woman?] Miya suddenly asked.
'...'
'In that case…'
'I'll use my personal rod for the punishnt,' Davies replied, a aningful smirk appearing on his face as he replied to her.
[...]
[You're a pervert]
'Well, darling,'
'...It is what it is,' he replied again, the smirk not leaving his face even as the ice spike bear burst out of the ice fortress.
The ice spike bear on the other hand, stopped imdiately after it burst out of the ice fortress.
What was going on?
It had co here because it heard the sounds of fighting and it seed like his lackeys were being killed, so where were they?
Who was this human standing alone surrounded by the sll of blood and why was everywhere so red?
Who did the paint job for his house and only chose the color red?
Different questions filled up the head of the peak B-ranked ice spike bear as it looked at Davies, but it only took note of one thing, after all, its brain could only handle so much complex information.
This human was dangerous, so he had to be cautious as he fought him.
Imdiately it raised its paws and slamd down on the ground, sending ice spikes at Davies, who was imdiately forced to dodge.
Imdiately after Davies got out of the way of the ice spikes the bear had shot at him, he quickly conjured a few ice spears and shot them at the bear in a bid to counterattack, but the huge ice spike bear just warded off Davies's attack with its spiky ice skin.
"Tch…"
Davies clicked his tongue in annoyance after seeing his attack so easily warded off, but there was nothing he could do about it. This was an unexpected situation that he hadn't planned for after all.
He had originally hoped to kill enough monsters so he could quickly get out of the gate, and to do that, he had used most of his mana in dealing with all the previous monsters and now he barely had enough mana to be able to defeat this monster.
This wasn't in the plan at all!
But like they say, man proposes, God disposes.
His plan had ended in futility with him missing a single monster to kill to be able to leave this gate, and unfortunately, the only monster he could find right now, was the ice spike bear currently in front of him…
Unless the B-Squad could find a monster to kill as they made their way towards the gate's entrance, but he knew better than to count on them… or more precisely, he didn't count on anybody.
His new strategy was to go for a battle of attrition while slowly regenerating his mana to a level where he could kill the ice spike bear and then quickly make his way toward the gate's entrance and escape the gate.
This was what he was planning to do, but after a few minutes of fighting against the ice spike bear, he realized that the bear was actually quite crafty.
It had constantly attacked him from far off, forcing him to dodge or use his regenerating mana to block the attacks.
Perhaps it was aiming to tire him out, but for Davies that was already exhausted and was trying to regenerate his mana, yet was constantly being forced to dodge attacks and use the little mana he had managed to regenerate to block attacks, it was very frustrating.
Twenty minutes later, Davies had not managed to be able to regenerate a major quantity of mana and was even more tired than when he started the fight.
The battle had ended up going the only way he did not wish for it to go.
It had entered a deadlock.
