Arcana Mob

Chapter 29 Ch 29 : Monster Parade (2)



" Millenium Freeze!"

The name might sound like it came out from a Chuuni high schooler. Yet, Cade was still dumbfounded watching the scene in front of him.

In front of him, almost the whole passage was filled with ice with the three giant Tusked boars now frozen to death.

He turned his head around only to see Elicia was already in her possession mode.

Just like the main characters, Elicia also got the possession Arcane Card, and this Arcane Card of her was the Ice Empress or after she became a villain later would be known as the Ice Witch.

Now that he thinks about it, Cade felt pretty stupid.

He rushed alone and tried to protect Elicia. Now he felt like the situation was reversed, with whom protecting whom.

' *Sigh* Let's just forget it and continue the Dungeon exploration. Now that I could think about it wasn't in the game she also did all of this alone… I felt regret trying to act on my own.. she's one of the major villains, and I'm just a mob.' Cade tried to shake his head from those embarrassing thoughts

But without Cade knowing, Elicia's eyes had never left him.

That one moment when Cade used Spectre Dullahan and stood in front of her, her heart skipped a beat, and she, for some reason, felt like the University wasn't that bad anymore.

' *Blush* What are you thinking Elicia… It's not like that. It's just he was kinda cool back then…'

The two then proceeded to go down the path where it would lead to the Dungeon's exit.

But just when they were about to arrive at the exit, Cade frowned.

A big boulder was blocking their way, and it wouldn't be possible for them to continue their journey through here.

" Sure enough.. those guys, they really won't be giving us a way to escape."

Cade's face turned grim. Once might be a coincidence, but after seeing this scene, he perfectly knew that the incident before was all planned. Elicia was being targeted for a reason sho knows why, and because he was in a group with Elica, he was also implicated in this matter.

Elicia saw Cade's frowning face, and a bit of panic appeared on her. She also didn't expect that things would turn up like this. However, she felt bad for Cade.

He was here because she asked him to team up with her.

But just before Elicia could say anything to apologize, Cade had already turned around and he placed his hand on Elicia's head.

" No need to apologize. I'm going with you is also of my own will. Let's just say that we are equally responsible for this thing. And now, let's just find another exit."

" Ummm.."

The exchange was very short, but it was very effective.

Just like that, Cade was able to make Elicia's heart feel calmer, and the two proceeded to go deeper into the Dungeon to find another exit.

Yet without Elicia knowing, everything actually fell into Cade's plan.

Now that he knew Elicia was strong, he would like to use Elicia's help to find some treasure hidden in this Dungeon that could help him.

. . . . . . . .

The group Aurum, the protagonist led, was actually one of the most elite groups for this Dungeon Exploration.

It was a small group consisting of Aurum, Eva, and Luna.

Eva was actually Aurum's childhood sweetheart, so it was not a question that she would be there to support Aurum.

As for Luna, she was only here because she was dragged by Eva.

Since the beginning of the class, Eva and Luna have had a good relationship, and the two quickly become friends.

And now, here she was. Knowing that she alone might not be enough to protect Aurum, Eva came and asked Luna to join them, which Luna obviously could not reject the request of her only friend in school.

As Aurum was the weakest among the three, he stayed in the middle, protected from both front and behind by the two girls.

This School Dungeon, even though it had been conquered still a dungeon at its essence.

Monsters still jumped out within this Dungeon, and it has complicated branched paths.

There were also dangerous moments when traps appeared.

Just the first thirty to forty minutes were enough to teach the three a lesson that exploring Dungeon needed sufficient preparation.

Well, it's not like Aurum was not useful, though.

He was pretty knowledgeable, and since he had read a lot of books, he could subtly tell differences between traps and which path to take, and it had led them away from an instant wipeout.

But once they delved deep into the Dungeon, there was a sudden commotion in the front.

The group of three noticed it, but it was already way too late.

It was the monster parade.

Just like in the original story, the first trial that the protagonist would encounter in the University was the monster parade.

There were, of course there are choices to be taken. Whether to run away or to fight here, Aurum and co obviously chose to run.

This monster parade was not like the one that Cade and Elicia faced before. It was a full monster parade with more than 100 monsters on it, and trying to face them would only be stupid.

The group of three didn't waste any time and ran.

They used all their stamina and ran with all their might.

But everything was as if it was predetermined before.

Just like in the game, even if you choose to run, the protagonist's group would soon read a dead-end and have no other choice but to face the tusked boar directly.

Still, it was pretty fortunate for them that right before the dead-end, there was a fork on the path, and now they would only need to handle about ten or so monsters in front of them.
