Gorgeous Jewel
Chapter III Chapter 88

"When I entered this mine, I felt Echidna's presence drifting away. What's going on?" Alice asked in her mind full of anxiety.

Previously, Alice felt the Echidna point of existence was near. But for some reason, that point suddenly moved away from him. A sense of haste began to approach him. "I need to get out of this place."

The two have now arrived in front of the lake. Likewise with the race of wild animals that gave them the previous warning that the little mouse. Even though he said he didn't care, he was still worried about them. Despite the weight of the heart, the rat hesitated far behind the two.

"The clear sea. Full of energy. Fee, how? Can you see into it." Alice said after she saw the entire lake.

In an old mine so deep and silent. The lake is like an oasis for miners when they want to rest. The fresh water flowing out of the small hole in the cave walls seemed so exciting to anyone who was thirsty and exhausted.

Fee stepped forward a little closer to the surface of the lake. "Let me try." He lowered his head while looking into the lake using his clairvoyance.

His gaze slowly traced what was at the bottom of the well. The water is clear yet so dark down there. The soot was really in Fee's mind.

As Fee had been tracing for quite a while and almost said he had found nothing on Alice, he suddenly saw a black shadow of something darting rapidly up towards the surface. Something like a snake but if you look carefully, he does not look like a snake in general. The object continued to rise until it approached the surface of the lake.

"Alice! Careful." Fee warns Alice as she jumps back.

A monster with a strange shape and a large size came out from the well. Thanks to Fee's warning, Alice managed to dodge the monster's surprise attack.

When the monster jumped out of the lake. The ground on which they stood shook because the size of the monster was three times larger than a horse carriage. If he had to compare then, he was slightly larger than the Devouring Serpent that Alice had fought in the tournament while still in the academy.

"That monster.he's got a gun in his hand." Alice said in wonder.

"He is Naaga. Holding a trident in his hand which indicates that he is the guardian of this well." Nyx muttered in Alice's head. "With a body like a snake, but has hands and some of them have intelligence that is almost like humans in general." Continue to explain about the monster.

The monster roared fiercely while lifting its trident upwards. It was not wrong for Naaga in front of them to be called a snake as well. Yes, the difference is, they have two hands that are useful for holding weapons and shoulders and the back of the thorny head.

Naaga began to swing his trident and took a swing to attack. With such a large body, Alice had to dodge her powerful attacks.

After swinging his trident at Alice and Fee. The trident held by the naaga then shone and fired a powerful water cannon.

Alice who was targeted by him was surprised to find out that the naaga was able to use magic.

"If naaga is capable of using magic, that means they have intelligence high enough to talk to." Nyx said once more from inside Alice's head.

"Are you sure?" Alice asked puzzled and doubtful of what Nyx said. "I don't see anything we can talk about from the look in his eyes that's like he's trying to kill us." Added.

Nyx agrees with Alice. He was surprised, not usually monsters like them lose control unless something happens to them.

Fee was clenching his tongue. His eyes glanced at Alice and waited, hoping that Alice had thought of something to defeat the Naaga. Increasingly annoyed when his attacks are not at all effective, Fee turns bigger and bigger until he is the size of Naaga.

Alice stunned. His attention was distracted as he looked at Fee's body size. Just this time he saw such a big Fee. After discussing with Nyx and finding no other way but to defeat her. Alice joins forces and attacks Naaga.

Alice leapt high up while she drew her sword on the monster's back. That Qi-covered sword slash made Naaga roar in pain. Fee takes the opportunity and attacks Naaga with his sharp claws. Both of them continued to use this tactic. Naaga begins to get overwhelmed as her enemies are attacking from two different directions.

As she chased Fee away with her trident, Alice took advantage of that point of her guard and attacked with a powerful sword Qi. Naaga was beginning to get exhausted but strangely a wave of powerful energy suddenly emerged from his trident.

Naaga wagged her tail strongly to make Alice and Fee retreat. Then Naaga tapped the base of his trident to the ground three times and lifted it up.

A huge magic circle was created in the sky right above the heads of the two. Only about two seconds later, a powerful water bomb hit them from above. Alice and Fee noticed a significant Mana pressure rising above their heads and immediately dodged when they saw the magic circle appear. After the first water bomb attack failed. Naaga still raised her trident to the sky which meant that the next attack would come.

Just as Alice had expected. The magic circle next appeared again above their heads and gave rise to the same attack. Two, three, four, a series of water bomb attacks followed them until the eighth magic circle was completed, Naaga stopped and lowered the trident. It seemed that he was already exhausted from his attack just now.

"Now!!" Alice and Fee immediately move to attack at the same time as Fee quickly claws at Naaga and bites her shoulder and throws her back. Alice was already standing at her position and had condensed the Qi energy on her sword, Alice was ready to slash. The moment the naaga came towards her, Alice released her Plum Blossom Sword Technique.

the [ Three Plum Blossom Sword. First Form, Rapid Slash ]

The continuous stabbing by Alice left the body full of injuries while he was still in the air. Then without letting the naaga fall, Alice had vanished from her place and was now in the air.

[ Second Form. Plunge Attack ] Alice turned her sword and pointed the tip of her sword down then twisted her body, then plunged right towards the naaga's back.

Because of the thick scales of the naaga. Alice was unable to pierce through her body as deeply as possible. He kicked it to the ground. His small legs compared to the body of the naaga were so large that the little mouse was speechless. How could a deemon with a small body seem to be able to throw the naaga so powerfully?

[Third Form, Penetrate Sword ] Alice darted like lightning toward the dust puff caused by the violent impact of the dragon. Alice pointed her Qi-covered sword with the intention of piercing through naaga's scales. But, it was a pity that the naaga suddenly went berserk and protected itself with a water tornado. The dust that was now replaced with a whirlpool like an*****pair that can tear anything in it.

It was as if he had entered his second form in a fight. Naaga, which was blue, turned red. Naaga is like entering a rampage mode.

"It turns out these monsters aren't easy to beat." Mumbled Alice.

"Keroco seems to want a strong pretentious before me. Hmphh!"

Not to lose. Fee also changed.

Inside Alice's calm sea of consciousness. Nyx's hair stood up and fear suddenly passed through her. Both of his eyes widened due to the pressure he had just. To a Goddess like her, that shockwave of energy, could put her in danger.
