John reappeared on top of the sand, thanks to deprehendre, he could see the centipede's movents and figure clearly.
The only problem now was...
"Getting out of the ground..." John muttered
However, his worries were quickly misplaced as the sand underneath his legs began to pull him in
[It's coming]
"I know." Said John before shadow stepping 5 ters away
As he did, a the head of a giant centipede ca out of the area where he was standing. Seeing as how it missed the centipede continued to move and was about to engulf it's head back into the sand when all of the sudden
"Nolite indurare" The Area where the centipede was aiming for suddenly turned into rock, making it slam it's head straight into it.
*Slam*
But even with that impact it looked unfazed and simply crawled backwards back through the way it ca out of.
Seeing this, John turned the sand where it was retreating into to rock, but had no luck, it was going down the sa hole it had co out of, and there was not enough dense sand in the hole.
Seeing this, John shadow stepped right in front of it, before he muttered
"Saint-Class ice magic: Cavea principalis densa glacies " Translation: Dense Ice Cage
Four ice walls rose around the giant centipede, forming a big cube. After that, Spiky ice pillars extended from the ice walls before heading straight towards the centipede to pierce it.
However, on contact with its skin, the pointy edge of the ice pillar broke and the centipede successfully managed to retreat back into the sand pit
"... I knew it'd be hard but..."
[Looks like the only weakness is in it's mouth... Alright, we'll end it in this attack.]
"I guess I'll go for the head." Said John as he stood still and acted like he didn't know where it was
He was trying to bait the boss by making him think that he was vulnerable, and it didn't take long for it to bite the bait.
"Serena, Ariel are you ready!?" John shouted as he looked up
He hadn't checked on them earlier because he was focused on the centipede, but now that he was able to check, A grin was ford on his face
"If I'm not careful... those two may end up passing "
[Bold of you to assu that they already haven't.]
They hadn't replied and seed completely irsed in their spell, even for John, to do a spell like that alone would be insanely difficult.
Suddenly the shaking on the ground got louder and louder, it was heading straight to john from underground
"It's here" John muttered as he jumped up
Following his jump, the head of a centipede with it's opened mouth ca out of the ground.
John cast both 'levite' and velox but made sure to stay close to him so that it could think that it was about to eat him any second.
[Just a bit more...] John muttered
He was getting closer to the spell which was ford in front of the two girls, and the centipede was still rising from the ground
[How long is this thing...?]
"NOW!" John shouted
The instant he shouted those words, the two girls unleashed the spell, despite being big, it was fast, if John didn't shadow step away right before he shouted, he would've been hit from point blank, and he definitely wouldn't have survived.
The spell was amazing to look at even from John's perspective. A giant red lance with a spinning wind drill at the tip. It seed to have 5 fire arrows around the tip, and all of them had air particles gathered in front of them
A spell this complex, was sothing not even john expected, they had really surpassed all his expectations.
The centipede with no ti to react or avoid the attack, was hit from point blank. The lance entered through it's mouth before the inside of it's body started to enlargen
"Ignite!" The two girls shouted
Seeing as how it was litteraly about to explode, john quickly shadow stepped next to the two girls before from an ice sphere around them
*Boom!*
Pieces of the centipede, were scattered all around the area evaporating upon seconds after doing so, and in the middle of the Sandy field, all that remained was a yellow stone. It was covered in blood but that evaporated shortly after.
"You two okay?" John asked as he looked towards them
"Of course, why don't you try to imitate this one too?" Serena asked
"You won't be able to imitate this one" Said Ariel with a proud look
[Eh? Are they mad at because I mixed their concept with mine?]
"Oi, don't forget who taught you two chant-less magic in the first place!"
"That's like saying the story that we wrote is yours because you taught us how to write..." Said Ariel
[Ugh, she has a point... How'd she even thinks of such a good example? Also I was the one, who taught you about the explosive technique in the first place...]
John let out a sigh before propelling them and the platform downwards to the bottom
"Alright, I won't try to imitate it."
"Huh? I who said you weren't supposed to?" Serena asked
"We want to see if you'll be able to, if you can we'll just make the next one harder to copy." Said Ariel with a confident smile
"Huh? Really?"
"Yeah? What did you think we ant?" Serena asked
[I thought they were mad at and thought of as a guy who was stealing their idea.]
"Exactly what you said."
"What's that supposed to an?" Serena asked
"Nothing..."
"Tell us..." Said Ariel
"Haha, take a guess..."
As the three continued to talk to each other, John was reminded of the premonition he had. It was obvious that it was sothing which was supposed to happen in the future, and at their current point. Serena and Ariel were already very strong.
So just who.... Who could've been able to damage them as much as they did?
