Physics The Greatest Magic

Chapter 268 - The Unground Boss Room.

"A dungeon boss room...?" Said John confusedly 

"In a way." Said Master Sylvia who stood on the wall besides the dark entrance they had arrived from. 

The words were direct and self-explanatory. Yet the confusion only grew, but before anyone could ask anything. 

Just as Master Sylvia had spoken, everyone's attention had been taking by the presence which stood in the middle of the large spacious room, just ahead of them on the other side of all the pillar platforms. 

The presence stood in the middle of what appeared to be the arena, a dark mass in the shape of a cube. A strange humanoid shape. 

A shadow? It most certainly looked like it. But no, it gave the impression of something much darker. And if it was a shadow, what exactly would it be the shadow of? 

A Dark humanoid shape with pitch-black crystals floating over it's back. The crystals resembled wings and was the only redeeming quality about that thing's appearance. 

It's facial qualities couldn't be seen as it appeared to have none. The head, hands, legs, all the shape of a human, yet it wore no clothes. 

The only feature they could make out of it's facial appearance that seemed recognisable was it's mouth. But even that, remained shut. 

The worse thing about it, was the amount of pressure it brought by just standing there. 

[What...? What the hell...?] John thought to himself 

John looked over at his hands and noticed that they were trembling. It wasn't as if he was necessarily afraid, but his body itself was reacting that way. 

[Just from being in the same room as it...?] John wondered 

John wasn't the only one, The others were also shaking, despite trying to keep a level-headed and composed expression. It still came out as nervous for them. 

"Oi... What is that thing...?" John asked as he gulped down the little air he had on his throat. 

Aside from Master Sylvia, John was the first to speak up. But received only a single reply. 

"A monster." Said Master Sylvia 

[A monster...?] 

Lydia stared straight at the being with her eyes widened before her legs gave out. She slowly slid down to her knees, after putting the two kids down. At first, John thought of it as a natural reaction, but when he saw the expression on her face, he thought twice. 

Rather than being an expression of fear, it was the expression of deep burning rage. 

John then looked back over at the figure which was in the middle of the dark cube. He didn't understand just how it was possible for such dark condensed magic to exist, nor how it could cover most of the room in such a way. 

It was as if the air itself had been polluted. It was nauseating. 

"Ms Sylvia... What we really doing here...? What's a dungeon boss floor, doing here...?" Ariel asked as she turned to Master Sylvia 

Ariel had done it. She had asked that question that everyone wanted to know. Master Sylvia had been avoiding it, but in this situation, there was no way to do so. 

"John's Final Trial." Said Master Sylvia 

She remained leaned on the wall as she slowly opened her eyes and looked towards John. Without saying anything else, John nodded before making his way towards one of the pillars. 

Some of the pillars had platforms above them, while others were simply pillars with spiky edges. John was trying not to think too deeply about it, he just wanted to get things over with, and he was sure that if he had taken any longer to have second thoughts. He wouldn't be able to go. 

As John was about to Jump from the edge over to the nearby pillar platform. He felt something pull back his shoulder. 

"Who-" 

John was interrupted by Serena who asked 

"Where do you think you're going?" 

Confused, John quickly replied. 

"To beat that thing, so we can get out of here." Said John 

Hearing this, Serena tightened her grip on John's shoulder before asking. 

"Surely you can feel it too, can't you? That's not a normal monster... Not only that but... What's a dungeon floor doing underneath that metal house...? Don't you find it strange how this is here? We're not in a dungeon John... This should be impossible..." 

With her head hung, John could feel Serena's arms trembling through her grip, as he looked closely at her. She was genuinely worried, but more than that, she seemed angry. 

"Serena-" 

"She's right, John. You remember what happened last time, don't you? These trials, they're too risky and... Ms Sylvia still hasn't explained what a dungeon floor is doing here and what exactly is that thing." Said Ariel as she turned to Master Sylvia 

"We're not letting you go, until we get answers." Said Serena as Ariel grabbed onto John's elbow. 

John looked over at Master Sylvia, he couldn't say anything. He'd be lying if he said he wasn't curious and didn't want to know. Those questions had also flown through his mind. And even now, he wasn't sure if he could take that thing. 

Seeing how everyone's attention was on her, Master Sylvia let out a sigh before saying. 

"It resembles but isn't a dungeon floor, it's the lair to conduct the final trial." 

"Then why does it look so much like it?" Ariel asked 

"Perhaps, the creator had such tastes. I'm not sure." Said Ms Sylvia 

[Creator...? For someone to make this... It's possible that they're not from this world... I may be able to get a clue...] 

"Who made this?" John asked 

"Who knows. And as for the other question, that thing is what John will need to complete his breakthrough and gain control over the dark spirit inside of him. It's a demon, a lesser demon." Said Master Sylvia calmly 

"A lesser demon!?" The three shouted simultaneously. 

 Confused, John looked at the surprised expression on their faces without saying anything. He didn't understand why there was such a grand reaction, but seeing it only reassured just how bad the
