First Incident (7)

[Constellation, Gaunis is perplexed when he sees the corpse!]

Elina’s agitation was natural.

With a trembling unknown where it started, Elina tried to run forward.

If I hadn’t stopped it, Elina would have already been by Ellin’s side.

“You can’t go.”

“But Gongja-nim… !”

Elina reacted violently.

Transparent teardrops in her eyes came into my field of vision.

Twins with only one. A family with only one person. Elina’s reaction was very reasonable.

But.

“I don’t know? It’s a trap.”

I lowered my voice to Elina.

Elina was startled and turned to Ellin.

<The Labyrinth of Deception>, a polluted area created by the crow king, shows an illusion that attracts people.

Not only that, but it tries to entice people with all the illusions that cause longing, fear, and sadness.

That was one of those welcomes.

“senior?”

And the illusion doesn’t end once you see through it.

I turned my eyes to the vivid voice.

Libya, who had summoned the Black Shadow Demon Beast, was looking at me with trembling eyes.

“Stop, senior. It’s not… .”

Water-blue eyes trembling sadly.

The hair fluttering uneasy in the chilling wind, even the fingers trembling with a children’s song.

Libya, who had done something that no one could see, was there.

“Libya… sir? what’s that magic trick? I can’t believe Elin is Livia… !”

Elina looked at Livia in disbelief.

A torn piece of Elin’s holy clothing was bitten into the mouth of the witch beast Livia was handling.

It seemed too real to be an illusion in the labyrinth of deception.

Even the tears forming around her eyes are the same as those of Libya.

[Constellation Gaunis is surprised by the appearance of Libya!]

[Constellation Gaunis tells you to be careful! I am astonished that he might be a murderer!]

Gaunis is also an illusion that can be fooled by blinking… No, in the first place, he blinks and is easily fooled.

Anyway, even I, who was convinced that what this place showed was an illusion, seemed to be deceived.

In any case, in reality, the main character of the original work suffers in this labyrinth of deception, seeing the visions of the party.

Not only that, but internal strife also arises, leading to a situation where they almost die and kill each other.

If I hadn’t had any preparations, I would have done the same.

Of course, I have no intention of going as difficult as the original protagonist.

“Wait a minute.”

I took a magnifying glass out of my pocket and held it up.

When I took out my magnifying glass out of the blue, Elina and Livia both looked at me curiously.

I was sure, but there was a sense of nervousness.

First, the magnifying glass was pointed towards Libya.

Tring!

[Unidentified subject. Status does not exist.]

As soon as I saw the system window, I fired the magic I had prepared toward Libya.

The illusion hit by magic shimmered like a mirage and then slowly disappeared.

“Kyaaak… ! uh huh There is nothing in the place where Livia was!”

“Because it was welcome.”

When Libya disappeared, the illusion of Elin also disappeared.

2000 pt worth, constant status check item.

I thought it could also be used to distinguish illusions.

[Constellation, Gaunis admires your ability to use that tool!]

[Constellation Gaunis says he found a strange function.]

[The constellation Gaunis has been absent for a while.]

weird feature? vacate your seat?

No, let’s turn our nerves away from Gaunis for now.

I carefully wrapped the item in my bosom and shouted to the surroundings.

“Then come out. Wouldn’t you have just prepared this?”

The Raven King is a master who is careful and cautious.

It was his speciality to spread the strategy in two or three layers.

Sure enough, at my cry, the surrounding trees shook and slowly turned into monsters.

Several soldiers, and about two breakaways.

Finally, the gigantic monster appeared.

“Awesome. How did you find out? This labyrinthine vision would have recreated everything you know. Is the magnifying glass you were holding enchanted with something?”

It was a bull-like monster with huge horns on its head.

The body was so large that it was believed to be a single large tree.

One of the two destruction-class monsters led by the Crow King.

The name must have been Aluax of the mighty force.

The wind pressure created by the fist itself is a monster that can be used as a weapon.

“Confucius!”

When Elena’s enemies appeared, she immediately stepped in front of me and used the blessing.

There was a bright light, and Elina’s body was covered with white armor made using the [Sacred Arms].

And in both hands was a pure white sword and shield that seemed to match his color.

“Because I’m buying time here… !”

Elina shouted confidently, but the tip of the sword was shaking.

A Destruction-class monster that Elina encounters for the first time.

The difference in power must be overwhelming.

“Nope. Elina. I have something to talk to him about.”

“Confucius.”

“it’s okay. I have thoughts.”

Rather, I sent Elina behind me and grinned at the overwhelmingly powerful monster in front of me.

“How did you find out, you asked? Isn’t information warfare the specialty of your Raven King Corps? You guys have to find out.”

The corners of the bull’s mouth twitched, and tendons sprouted all over the body in a criss-cross pattern.

“Ugh. And wipe your teeth.”

“You look at me funny. An insignificant little boy.”

I couldn’t stop sighing.

Maybe it’s because the writer created the character in the beginning, so the quality of the dialogue is a bit low.

Would you say it’s a bit like a third-class villain?

“No way, I wouldn’t say there are no hostages.”

The Raven King prepares hostages whenever possible.

It was because he believed that he could intimidate his opponent and gain an upper hand through it.

As the bull grinned and cocked his chin arrogantly, one of the monsters that had been a Witchbeast changed its appearance.

Kayden appeared with his clothes torn and blood flowing here and there.

Fortunately, it was only a wound from resisting, and there seemed to be no fatal wounds.

“… Leonhard… . me… .”

Kaiden looked at me earnestly, with tears streaming down his face.

I took out my magnifying glass and checked Kayden.

Tring!

[Check Kaiden Adan’s status]

With those words, Kaiden’s status briefly appeared.

In the first place, I was only trying to confirm that it was the real Kayden, so I turned off the screen and opened my mouth calmly.

“no. senior. it’s okay. I was the one who told you to stay still.”

I reassured Kayden and looked at Suso.

“If you move even one step from there, this woman’s neck will fly off.”

“Woman?”

Meanwhile, Elina tilted her head.

Apparently, demon beasts generally have good noses, so it seems that they were immediately distinguished by their body odor.

“Well, I must have misunderstood. Where do you see that senior is a woman?”

At my words, Kaiden put on a slightly hurt expression.

“what are you talking about. This is a woman.”

“Oh, no. I am a man!”

Kayden struggled and shouted.

“No, you are a woman!”

“Because I am a man!”

“right. You are a man!”

While arguing for a while, the bull snorted again.

“What! Stop the weird arguing! Anyway, if you want to save this woman’s life, prepare to be beaten by me.”

“So I am not a woman!”

Aluax ignored Kayden’s cry and raised a sinewy fist.

“Confucius!”

Elina seemed to feel the danger and jumped out in front of me again holding a shield.

In the meantime, I calmly checked all the monsters with a magnifying glass.

There seemed to be no existence disguised as Elin or Livia among the Witch Beasts.

Then there is only one answer.

You’ve been kidnapped.

“Where did you take the two women you treated as illusions earlier?”

“You speak with confidence.”

“It’s obvious what’s in the Raven King’s head. If I didn’t surrender, he would have intended to bring me back one by one and ask them to surrender again.”

“… You know the tricks of the crow king? Misunderstanding is also oil-based resin.”

Aluax didn’t seem to want to talk to me anymore.

At the same time as the bull-shaped Demon Beast raised its fist, the Demon Beasts jumped in.

The moment the pure white sword in Elina’s hand was about to slash the first beast.

Tring!

[According to the setting, the ability of the strongest sword is activated.]

[Since the setting of the seeker’s special ability is LV6, there are some restrictions on the use of the strongest weapon in the setting.]

[Use time limit 30 minutes.]

[Purgatory]

[A sword connected to hell that punishes sinners with endlessly scorching flames among the seven hells.

Everything cut with this sword can be sent to Purgatory.

All who are sent are condemned to eternal punishment by being burned in the flames of hell.

The owner of Purgatory can freely come and go while ignoring the flames of Purgatory.

The owner gains power and speed like the Great Devil.]

I activated the sword’s ability.

I wanted to follow the development similar to the original as much as possible, but that thought has completely disappeared now.

It’s also a problem that even one person dies and the achievement is broken.

More than anything, I can’t forgive myself for hurting the people around me.

In exchange, I will thoroughly destroy this damn labyrinth.

Even if you burn down all the maze-like things, wouldn’t it just be enough to reach the goal?
