159 3rd Floor (2/2)
As they went down the stairs, John noticed the grain of sand on the stairs
[Great. Desert on the third floor.]
The familiar dry air and warm sensation could be felt as they got closer to the bottom.
”John, this is a desert floor, isn't it?” Serena asked
”Right it is, and remember, if we see any buildings which might have a basement, avoid them.” Said John
”You don't have to tell us, I have no plans in repeating what happened last time”
”Neither do I” Ariel added
As they reached the bottom of the stair case, John noticed that the floor was covered in sand. He then slowly peered out of the doorway which was In front of him before looking around.
The only thing he could see outside was sand and the sun.
”Just to make sure...”
John then peeked out of the door and checked to see if there was a giant stair case behind it, but there was surprisingly nothing.
He stretched out his behind the door and couldn't feel a stair case either
”Hm... So dungeons can manipulate the space inside of it.”
”John, how long are you going to take? Is there really a need to worry that much?” Serena asked
”It's fine isn't it? He's just being wary, I didn't know he could do that...”
”Ariel, could you please not say such things with such a straight face, It hurts and I might actually believe you...”
”Eh? But I'm being honest?”
”...”
”Fufu...”
[She just laughed didn't she...]
”Then... Let's head out”
John was the first to step on the sand, with each step, he could feel his feet sinking deeper and deeper in. He could feel sand enter his choose and the boiling hot heatwave on his skin.
”... Glacio.”
John raised his leg out of the sand before freezing it to use as footing. He repeated this with his other leg, and now stood on the ice he had formed.
The others followed behind and instantly mentioned it
”John, that's not fair!” Said Serena
Ariel on the other hand, created small mini tornados and her shoes and was basically floating on top of the sand.
Master Sylvia seemed to have no problem walking on the sand. John quickly turned back to see if the doorway was still there and thankfully it was.
”Serena, you can also use this move.”
”Won't it be a waste of magic power? We never know when we might fight the boss”
”I'm not sure about boss... But I suggest you make some sort of footing.” Said John
”Eh?”
Suddenly, the sand underneath them began to sink and twirl, exactly like a water vortex but on land. Following that, some sort of mouth with razor sharp teeth could be seen in the middle of the vortex.
