Chapter 214 - Getting A Maid (1/2)

”How much longer, till we're able to get out?” Asked Lydia

They had been walking for around 20 minutes since she woke up, and they ended up taking a few turns while doing so.

”Not much longer, we're nearly there.” Said John as he continued focusing his magic on prolonging the tunnel

Whenever he did, Lydia would look even more surprised than before. It was hard to believe that a child could accomplish something like this.

What's more is how he didn't look tired at all.

As they continued to walk, Lydia wondered just how he was making her young brother and sister in law float. She didn't want to come out and ask, but she was curious at the same time.

”Um, John-”

Lydia was interrupt by John who suddenly stretched out his arm as he stopped. He looked confused about something, but wasn't saying anything.

Lydia watched as John moved his head from left to right as if he were searching for something. But they were surrounded by earth so there was no way, she'd be able to understand what it was.

”Jo-”

Before she could finish her sentence, the remaining sound which was supposed to come out, suddenly disappeared.

Surprised, she was about to ask once more, when she finally realised. No sounds were coming out.

John gestured to her, for her to be quiet before raising his right arm to the dirt ceiling.

Then, with his left, he quickly gestured her to get closer to him before grabbing on to the two kids who were unconscious.

Worried that they may have been caught, she did as he said and when she did, John spoke

”Grab on to me, anywhere, Quick!”

”Furtim, Levite.”

Something was coming, but right before they could see it a hole big enough to fit the four of them, was opened on the ceiling before they were suddenly propelled straight up and through it.

[EEEHH!?!] She shouted in her mind as they flew straight upwards.

All the dirt in the way was rapidly moving to the side before returning back to it's original spot as they passed through, but Lydia was too afraid to notice.

From her perspective, it looked like they were going hit the rocks head on.

And before she even realised it, they had left the ground and ended up coming straight out of a grass field.

As they continued to fly up, she made sure to hold on as hard as she could on to both John's arm and the two kids.

”W-Waiiiiiit!!” She cried out

”It'll be fine, just hold on tight.” Said John with a smile

Even though he knew he shouldn't he was still enjoying her reaction.

She did as he said and tightened her already tight grip around his arm, before he suddenly propelled them forwards.

As they flew forwards, she looked down at the city from above.

It was amazing. She could see the people working, the beach, the little remains of the recently conquered Dungeon.
