nBoth Serena and Ariel seemed to be struggling to keep their balance, so before the group could fall in, John created a small icy platform for them to stand on.

nEveryone got on and quickly managed to regain their balance. Serena let out a sigh before saying

n

"T-That was close... Man... Having john in the party sure is reassuring...

"

n

"Is that so?

" John asked with a smile

n

"I-I mean, It's fine...

" Said Serena as she turned away

nThe teasing never ends.

n

"Thanks John, I still haven't managed to properly control the tornado spell, I thought I was done for

" Said Ariel as she let out a sigh

n

"You're welcome. Also, we're still inside of a vortex, so it's too soon to drop your guards.

" Said John

nHearing this, the two girls snapped back into wary, battle mode

n

"Did I really just drop my guard...?

" Ariel asked with a shocked look as her voice trembled

n

"It's john... He's spreading his recklessness to us...

" Said Serena as she stared at John as if he were some sort of disease

nAriel also looked at john with confusion and denial in her eyes

nO-Oi... Can you two not stare at me like that.

nThe two looked at each other, nodded and then raised their staff. Serena formed an Arrow, however it wasn't a normal arrow, it was big not only that, but hot, very hot.

nJohn wasn't sure if it was because they were in the middle of a desert or if it was because the spell itself was hot, but it was still quite an achievement.

n

"Elementary Combined Fire & Wind Magic: Sagitta ignis FRAGOR

" Translation: EXPLOSIVE Fire Arrow

nShortly after the arrow was completed and the platform was now only a few feet away from the monster's mouth,

nWind and Air particles began to gather both in front and behind the arrow, before it suddenly unleashed and propelled the arrow straight at the mouth of the monster

n*Poosh*

nOn impact there was a small explosion along with the arrow penetrating through the sand worm's mouth.

nAfter that, the sand stopped spinning and all that remained was a small hole in the middle of the vortex formed from the small pit

n

"Yes!

" Said Serena as she clenched her fist

n

"Nice job, Serena.

"

n

"You too, Ariel

"

n

"Hey, you two, I've been meaning to ask.

" John intervened

n

"What?

" The two simultaneously asked

nHow can you two know what the other is thinking just by looking at each other? Why would you name that elementary when that had as much fire power as an advanced class or lower-saint class?

n

"You know what, never mind.

" Said john

n

"Are you sure?

" Ariel asked as she stared straight at john

n

"Yeah, I'm sure.

" Said John as he suddenly turned his head towards the sky,

nthey were inside of a pit, the easiest way to leave would be to fly out. Suddenly, John stretched out his arm towards the area in front of the platform and began to gather ice

n

"An enemy?

" Serena asked as she raised her staff

n

"Yeah, it's close. But don't worry.

"

nThe ice took the form of a long spear and instead of it being a blade made of ice at the end, it was a drill.

nThe spear began to quickly spin with the help of wind magic, as john began gathering air both in front and behind it

n

"That's...!

"

nSerena and Ariel watched as John with a straight face easily merged the concept of their spell with his

nColder... Make the ice denser... Lower the temperature... John thought to himself

n

"Triple Combination Magic... hm... let's try it in the normal language. windy flaming ice explosive drill.

"

nBoth Serena and Ariel looked a john with a shocked expression

nA flame as blue as the ice was formed behind the air particles which were in front of the spear drill.

nAt the same time, a sand worm suddenly came out of the Area which john faced, it was big, they couldn't see the body of the first one as they ended up killing it.

nBut this one was completely visible, a long scaly body which stretched out, it looked just like the picture of sand worms John saw in his previous life, the only difference was that this one was abnormally large.

n

"verum glacies murum

" Translation: True Ice Wall

nThe Spear drill was propelled straight at the sand worm, and moved so fast it looked like a missile, it was much faster than Serena and Ariel's Arrow.

nThe Spear Drill went straight in to the sand worms' mouth before an explosion was let out on the inside of it's body.

nAt the same time, a wall of ice was formed before getting hit directly by the momentum of the sand worm.

n*Crack*

nBut that wasn't enough to break it. Serena and Ariel who saw this, were preparing for another attack from the same sand worm. The ice wall was blocking their view so they couldn't see what happened after.

n

"It's over.

" Said John as he dispersed the ice wall

nAs the wall began to melt and the sand worm became visible, the two girls were left speechless, or more precisely, they had sort of expected something like this to happen.

nThe other half of the sand pit which was on the other side of the ice wall, was completely frozen, not only that but so was the sand worm.

nThey also noticed that there was a hole in its body and the spear implanted in the middle of the ice, meaning that the spear drill had managed to pierce through its hard scales from the inside to get out.

n

"John...

" Master sylvia called out to him with a cold voice

nHearing this, John started to sweat

n

"M-Master?

" John asked with a nervous smile

nI completely forgot she was here...

n

"What did I tell you about using magic?

"

n

"Don't go overboard unless necessary... Only use the absolute minimum...

"

n

"The beach was an exception, next time you break this rule without telling me, there'll be punishment

" Said Master sylvia with a grin
