[Master Sylvia? Usually she doesn't step up...] 

"Do not attack my disciple without warning." 

Those were the only words master Sylvia said before she backed away 

"A dark mage assassin, huh... And two girls who are fast casters. Ha-ha... How did a kid like you get into a party like this?" The man asked 

"I'm the party leader." John replied 

"You? The leader? Ah yes, like a dog in a wolf pack" 

"You sure like to talk a lot, Mr. Could you please stop wasting our time?" John asked 

"That's right, your voice went from intimidating to annoying very fast." Said Serena 

Ariel also nodded at that statement 

"Y-You... brat... go ahead, don't say I didn't warn you." Said the man as he sat on the ground 

His other members let out a sigh as they also sat down to take a break, seeing this, John walked up to the door. 

Serena and Ariel cancelled before Serena pointed her middle finger at the man and ariel stuck out her tongue before they followed behind. 

[They can be pretty cruel when they want to] 

[Says you.] 

As they stood in front of the door, John suddenly remembered something. "Wait here for a moment." He said before heading towards the two girls who were sat down near them 

When he reached them, they looked at him with a wary confused expression. 

"W-What do you want?" The yellow haired girl asked 

"What's your names?" 

"Nothing, I just wanted to say that our party heard your conversation with him, you guys can head back now, if he doesn't give you your reward, we can act as evidence that you did and you will get it." 

For a moment they had a hopeful expression on their faces but that quickly changed back to a wary 

"If you're trying to take pity on us then we're fine..." Said the yellow-haired girl 

"She's right... We don't want to cause you any problems." Said the red-haired girl 

"Pity? You're misunderstanding something. Sure, I want to help but it's not because I pity you, I just can't stand jackasses who abuse their position to steal money." Said John as he looked straight at the man 

[Companies... So many cause others to go bankrupt, just thinking about it pisses me off.] 

[You're unusually angry.] 

[It's because I remembered something.] 

"You don't really think we'll let him abuse his power, do you?" Serena asked 

"So, don't worry about anything, go get some rest." Said Ariel 

"You brats..." The man muttered as he glared at the three 

Seeing this, Master Sylvia glanced at him and he quickly moved his gaze 

"I'll ask again, I'm john, what's your name?" Said John before muttering a few quick words and casting 'sana' / Translation: Heal 

A warm yellow light enveloped his hands as he placed it over where they had cuts and bruises 

"I-I'm Alphie" Said the red-haired girl 

"And I'm Cruz" Said the other 

"Alphie and Cruz... Nice names. You need to take better care of yourself, the healing" Said John with a smile 

Whether it was due to his kindness or looks, without john noticing, Alphie had started blushing, seeing this, Cruz formed a little smile. 

"T-thank you, John is a nice name too." Said Alphie 

"Thank you for offering to help us and healing us, we're in your debt." Cruz added 

"Thank you Alphie. Don't worry about debts Cruz, I'm doing this because I want to. what about you?" John asked as he looked at the guy with daggers on their team 

"Hm? I'm good, this man wouldn't dare steal anything from me, he knows my older brother after all." Said the guy 

"is that so..." John muttered 

"You traitors..." Said the man 

"Traitors? Listen man, we've been telling you that we were tired, if you continue to put our lives in risk... I wonder what my brother will do." Said the boy 

"T-Tsk... We're heading back after resting..." 

Hearing this a relieved expression could be seen on Alphie and Cruz's face, while the boy just smiled. 

[That boy... Something feels wrong, am I being oversensitive?] 

[No, those two are definitely in it together. I recommend you finish the next floor as soon as possible.] 

[Understood.] 

"Then, we'll on our way." Said John as he joined up with is party who were waiting at the door. 

"Be careful! The monster it's an S-Rank... it's..." 

----------------------------------- 

As the group entered the room, what stood in front of them was a creature which john had only ever seen in fantasies 

A giant cave like hall with a very high up ceiling. There were rocks laying around and a pit surrounding the bridge which led to the area where the boss was at. 

[Of course, there's always a pit] 

And in the middle of the pit stood a creature which surprised even John 

With fiery red scales covering its whole body, two legs and wings along with giant mouth, the creature laid in the middle of the room with its eyes closed, it was most likely asleep 

"Hey... Isn't that... a dragon?" John asked with a shocked look 

Both Ariel and Serena looked nervous while Master kept the same expression 

[If that girl hadn't told me earlier, I may have had a heart-attack, but didn't she say it was wyvern?] 

"No, that's not a dragon. Look it only has two legs." Said Serena as she surveyed it. 

The entire room was boiling hot, the other group seemed to have been sweating so this was probably the reason 

"A wyvern... is there even much of a difference?" John asked 

"Haven't you heard stories? Dragons are more intelligent than wyverns and are a lot stronger. They can transform into humans and even use high level magic on top of being physically stronger. Although many assume, they look the same, Dragons have 2 more legs and look a lot bigger." Said Serena 

[A rampaging dragon is an SS-Rank threat which even an S-Rank adventurer party has trouble exterminating.] 

[SS-Rank!?]
