danmachi : the journey of a hero ( volume 17 fancfic )

Road into the Darkness? (6)

Floor 49 entrance

Everyone was looking at the wall , the huge wall with black shadow inside of it , the huge Aura coming from it enough to give coldness to the bones.

Aiz turned around:" Bell are you ready?"

Bell hesitated " yes!"

Aiz:" don't worry we wont be fighting him to defeat him , we just need to stal him for a little while , Balor wont get out from his room and he ll take a short time for him to spawn when we get in"

Bell:" I understand!"

Aiz:" then I ll be infront and you cover me , lets go !"

And like that all xenos launched in the direction of the exist , while bell and Aiz stood in the middle

Aiz chanted her Wind magic

Aiz:" Tempest!"

While sounds of cracks on the wall was being heard , and the dark claws were emerging

Bell( this is bad , this is bad , this Boss , is too strong !)

Then he looks to Aiz direction she was running in the direction of the boss ,probably wants to give him a first blow before he finish spawning ,

Bell( Aiz-san is really amazing , I cant let myself get scared like this , I have to focus on charging up )

And particles of light were gathering around Hestia knife while bell was charging his Attack with firebolt , while watching the back of Aiz flying to direction of the Boss ,He has to trust her ,and trust his comrades from all the way where he came from to here , this is just another step for getting closer to his dream

Aiz screamed and she stroke Balor to the chest while he was emerging and the wall shoke and completely crumbled on the boss who was emerging now was sitting backwards

The boss roared , it was so loud that if a level 3 adventurer heard it would collapse on the spot

While Gros and the others were still running to the exist

The Angry Boss stood again , and stroke the ground with his claw

And the ground shaked , the boss was angry from the surprised attack , inside the smoke wall , huge red eyes could be seen. While Aiz jumped back wards avoiding the attack , she looked to scan the situation , the xenos almost reached the end and Bell was in good position

Aiz :" BELL ! , its your chance!"

Bell:" Leave it to me!"

And then

Bell Shouted:" Argo Vesta!"

And jumped directly while the Boss was focused on Aiz

And then a huge explosion was heard from the direction of Balor and the ground and wall trembled and the monster   who was knocked back to the wall again scremed In pain

Aiz eyes widened from the destructive power of the attack , she took the chance to back off before she get caught of the explosion and went to bell's direction

He was painting heavily

Bell:" haaah , haaaah!"

Aiz looked at him ( you became much stronger again bell ) and before bell fell to his knee she held his shoulder

Aiz:" lets move away"

And she activated tempest again

Fels and the xenos were still shocked from the attack , they thought bell did loose control again

Fels:" this.."

Lydo:" did Belluchi did it again?"

Weine :" what happened to bell?"

Fels:" its different , I am sure he didn't use that skill , but his body is not in good shape to use these kind of attacks "

Gros :" I ll have him rest on my back along the way"

And soon Aiz arrived with bell

Fels:" whats the situation ?"

Aiz:" I think bell gave him a heavy blow , he ll be really angry now , if we leave him like this he ll regenerate his injuries , it will be the perfect opportunity for us to loose the ones following us"

Fels :" right lets move"

In the upper floors

A huge roar was heard and a then after a short period a big earthquake and explosion sound

Allen:" ottarl! This!"

Ottarl screamed :" move faster !"

And they started moving faster again

Allen:" this is bad , they really had the guts to fight it"

Hedin:" but this is our chance to catch to them too"

After a period of time of running they reached the entrance of the boss floor , but it was quiet , too much quieter , and the Aura of the boss couldn't be felt

Ottarl was looking at the room before he enter

He had a bad feeling about this situation , since he already almost died against it , he knew what type of monster was Balor

Allen with confident move went in before Ottarl

Allen:" this is weird , did they Already di......" before he could finish his words a huge shadow from the air was approaching Allen who walked in , and Ottarl instincts went to the max he pushed his feet and stroke Allen inside the room and with his sword he blocked the claw that was inches away from killing Allen

Everyone present was trembling from fear , A boss of deep floors , Sneak attacking at the entrance , it was unimaginable no matter how you look at it

Allen who was pushed away ,he was trembling , he felt death approaching his neck in few seconds ago

Drops of sweat formed all over his face

It was only few seconds before Allen looked back to check the scene of a huge monster hanging on the wall upside down while hiding his presence and his claw was been held by ottarl at the entrance

Allen screamed :" this bastard !"

Ottarl screamed :" everyone , get to position!"

And the battle started
