150 The Possessed Oni (2/2)
”I agree with John, After all, what's the harm in waiting your for your turn? Not to mention you wouldn't be here if it wasn't for him” Added Azure
”Then, who will go first?” The lady asked
”We have to consider that we'll only be able to beat this boss once as all four groups are in the room, the boss won't be able to respawn after that, and we can't just leave and come back because the correct door would've changed.”
Everyone listened as john continued to explain
”In other words, one party will have to go and do the second-floor boss, and after the second-floor boss is done, another party can go. But only one party will have the right to claim and fight against this floor's boss”
”I see... Now regarding my question, who will go first?” The lady asked once more
”Isn't it obvious? It'll be my party” John replied
”Huh? Why should it be your party?” One of the guys in her party asked
”Yeah, I don't like this kid's attitude, he's been getting full of himself, all because he got lucky.” Said Another
”Enough. His party was the first party to enter so the right is his to decide, otherwise we'd be going against the guild rules.”
[The girls in her party were keeping quiet while the guys were complaining even though it was obvious that it was due to me that they were given a chance. At least the leader has a brain.]
”We'll do the order based on the order at which we arrived. I was first, Azure's party was second, the scruffy- I mean, The lady was third and the Cloaked was last. Are there any objections?”
”None from me” Said Azure
”None, either” Said The lady
As john glanced towards the cloak party, he noticed that the person who appeared to be the leader shook his head.
”Good.” Said John as he turned towards the boss
Serena, Ariel who were unexpectedly quiet, turned to the bridge with an annoyed look and began walking over it and Master Sylvia who john had completely forgotten Had already started walking ahead.
”What're you waiting for?” Serena asked
”Let's go john” Ariel said
”Yeah, I'm coming.”
John turned back towards the group one more time just to confirm something
”I'm not a fan of getting backstabbed, it's happened to me a few times, not a very fast learner, but when I do learn something, it's quite hard for me to forget, so if there's anyone that has any complaints, come take them out on me now, because there's no guarantee you'll be able to do it later.”
No one said anything but no one looked surprised
As john was about to head back since the person didn't want to expose himself, one of the guys had finally managed to gather enough courage. It was a tall man who walked out of his party.
