CHAPTER 46: CH 46

(Alex’s pov)

I saw how the group in front of me started looking around as if searching for something, suddenly the red haired girl turned around and looked in my direction.

Though I know from her status that she is stronger than me, but I never expected her to spot me while I am hiding.

"You there, stop where you are and don’t even try leaving." Said the beauty with red hair girl and medium sized breasts while holding a spear in her hand which was pointing towards me.

My senses were sending me darger signs from the spear and I came of my hiding spot.

"What were you doing here?" Asked the other blonde girl to me, her name is aria according to her status.

Her appearance is also not bad and she also has some sizable assets on her chest.

"Don’t you hear what I said." She said to me with an annoyed expression. Well, that’s suprising, how can a girl behave like this even after seeing my handsome fac-, Wait a sec.

I suddenly remember something and thake out my old dragger. Even though this thing is almost like a goner, it still is good enough to use as glass.

And indeed I was able to see my appearance in it, a very ugly appearance. It seems that I forgot to change back to my normal appearance and if I am not wrong, i have abouts 40 to 45 minute before my face returns to normal.

’Well, it is also a good thing. Atleast Tom don’t recognise me.’, I thought as I look towards the only boy present in this small group with these two beauties.

"I wasn’t peeking, I was just passing by from here that I saw but before I could leave, this miss catched me." I said with the sincere expression and the beauty with a spear frowned a little and turn around as she started discussing things with aria.

...

"He seems to be a close combat fighter should we add him in our party." Ember asked aria as she sneakily pointed at the rock dragger in alex hand, through they aren’t the best weapon one can have.

It still isn’t the worst considering from what they are made up of, and she know what rocks are used to create that dragger.

"No! We shouldn’t!! Why don’t you find a cute gir-, *cough*, I mean if you both doesn’t have any ploblem with a male in our group.

But keep your guard up, he look like a rapist." Tom said proudly.

Though ember want to ask what’s there to be proud about with what you have said and you look more like a rapist considering what you were about to say but she held it back.

There is no need to fight when you will be on your seprate way after a task and she still has be a bit dependent on him while fighting the boss.

Aria thought for a minut and nod," indeed we are one man short and we don’t have much time left left too.

If I am not wrong, it will only take about 10 minutes before the room of the dungeon opens and we need to be there when that happens lest we misses the chance."

Ember nod to her and then turn around facing alex with the same arrogant expression, " You, are you close combat fighter. If yes, then stay and if no, then you can fuck off." She said to him.

....

( Alex’s POV)

I listen to what this girl ember is saying and frowned a little, this girl really think herself as a princess,now that I think about it she has some princess related title too but, who cares.

"I am good with dragger, so you could say that I am somewhat of a close combat fighter." I said to her in a shy boy tone so as to let her have her guard down.

Ember gave a nod to me as she, and tom started walking away, "What are doing standing there." Ember said to me as I also started following the group.

.

"So, where are we going." I asked them as we continue running at an average speed.

We had been following the direction as described by the girl aria for about 5 minutes now as she kept leading us somewhere I don’t know.

"You will know about it soon." It was tom who said it arrogantly as if trying to show some kind of dominance above me.

’Funny character in this novel’ I thought and signed but don’t ask this question again least I gave readers same line to read.

(I can remove it if someone have ploblem with fourth wall breaking. Otherwise, just take it as a joke and pretend as if it wasn’t here.)

Soon, we reached in front of big door made of big rocks which I know we’re atleast ten times harder than rocks I had collected from those little wolves.

The door was currently closed and just seeing this, I understood one thing, "It is the boss room." I muttered unconsciously without even realising it.

I have been trying to find this shit for the last 3 and half hour only to remain empty handed and they were able to find it before me, what a luck they have. Even I am lucky that they decided to include me in thier party.

But, i just hate this guy smiling face, I thought as I look at tom who was currently smiling like an idiot while sitting with aria.

’But man, the sword in his hand look good. He must have found it from somewhere, lucky guy.’, I thought as I appraised his sword.

I am also starting to feel the mana I have is insufficient, maybe I should take time and try having a breakthrough in my mage rank.

It’s good that I won a high grade mana recovery potion, I can also buy it as many time as I want through gacha shop.

Each one cost me 130 SP, through it is more expensive than mana stone but they have thier own uses.

While this potion is only for mana recovery, mana stone is mainly used for forced breakthrough, magic formations and many such uses.

But while using them to refill mana, a lot of energy present in the stone is lost in the surrounding environment and the mana inside is also not that stable which leads to even more mana wastage.

This is why, a mana recovery potion is better at this work since the mana is refilled instantly through it and as this is a high grade potion and I am only a one star mage with just pitiful mana of 18 points, one a single bottle is enough for me for 5 uses.

It will also have negative effects if I drink more than my body can hold and I don’t want to experience what kind of side- effects they are, it will be better if I remain ignorant about it.

"We only have 5 minutes before we will tackle this boss room. I want no mistakes and enter as soon as you saw the door open even a little otherwise who knows it may even take us days to find the entrance again.

When you enter be ready for anything, we don’t know what type of monster is waiting inside for us so be ready for anything.

Lastly, don’t try playing smart inside and remember a mistake from you can lead death to all of us.

That’s all, get ready and make all the preparations you want to make in these five minutes." Aria said as she sat down and started assembling her arrow and then checked her bow’s durability and all.

I also gave a nod to what she has just said since it is the most logical things to do in this situation, immediately I sat down and started sharpening my stone dragger with the door since I can clearly see how durable they are.

After that, I changed my clothes to what I was previously wearing since what I was wearing was almost torn, the difference in my ugly face and a perfect body was so apparent that even a child will think it is cut and paste picture.

Unfortunately, there was no one to this I hide behind a rock while changing.

I and aria wasn’t the only one making preparations as even ember was getting ready.

Soon, we all were ready and the door of the boss room also opened up as we all enter inside, it was time to tackle the boss but we don’t know what was waiting inside for us.
