Labyrinth and Puppet (1)

“Hmm… .”

Just before leaving the dormitory, I looked at the potion handed to Hori last night.

The thick green potion, reminiscent of endless mud, was exuding an intimidating feeling of being poisoned just by looking at it.

‘This potion increases physical ability considerably, but the side effects are also great, so please use it with good timing!’

He was well aware that the side effect was not something that had to be done in the process of making it, so he nailed Hori’s head.

I left the dormitory with the potion in my arms in hopes that I would be able to use this potion by all means.

After leaving the dormitory, I headed to the park between the S-Class building and the general building, where the labyrinth breakthrough test will be held soon.

The park, which students usually use for a walk, is quite large and can accommodate a large number of students, so it was often used as a gathering place when moving on such a large scale.

When we arrived at the park, Marina had not yet arrived, but a large number of students were gathered together to talk about the exam.

I sat down on a nearby bench and listened to what they were talking about, and it was the story of who I was going to form a team with for this exam.

‘Surprisingly, I can’t hear Jessica or Lane’s name.’

The only names I heard were probably the bugs that were presumed to be Class A or Class B, but neither of me nor the names of the two were heard.

‘Am I not able to talk about the two of us because we have already decided who we are going to be with?’

Neither of them had much interest in the exam in which the first place had already been decided.

There was only one thing I was interested in, the group of demons that might break in in the middle of this test.

All swordsmen are above the minimum swordsman, and even wizards are only archmage who have reached at least 7 ranks.

Even in the original story, since the main character was a very difficult opponent at the time of the first encounter, I had high expectations for the demons who might come here.

‘Please come… please… !!’

Please don’t discriminate because of your erratic talent and come to catch Lane.

If it comes, the chance will come to show off the nangah who is ready to finally defeat the demon… !!

[Ok~!]

As if Nanga could not stand this burning heart of mine any longer, she barked with a baritone and shook her body.

I patted the anxious Nang-ah to calm her down, then leaned back on the bench to calm her mind.

How much time had passed, and after about five minutes, a murmur was heard in the distance, and Jessica appeared through the crowd, but not as much as when she had first seen her, but with quite a bit of hair.

Surrounded by followers after a long time, Jessica was smiling brightly with an arrogant expression befitting a bun-haired girl.

But that smile didn’t last long, and the moment he saw my face, it began to crumble.

It was Jessica who was about to leave the place quickly when she saw my face, but when she saw me alone, she thought it was playful, so she led a follower and approached me.

“Hello, Jessica.”

“… Are you planning to take the exam by yourself? No one to go with?”

He seemed to be worried about me just hearing what he said, but his tone was full of sneer.

If it had been a few days ago, they would have just ignored me and passed by, but it seems that I have developed a bit of tolerance after spending a month of intense time.

“You said it before. I’m thinking of doing it alone. It’s more efficient to do it alone.”

It might be a matter of fighting a demon, but you can’t carry useless luggage.

Even if it’s not, it’s more efficient to go to the deepest part as soon as possible than to carry a guy slower than me.

But Jessica, unaware of such thoughts, covered her mouth with her hand and smiled.

“Huh… ! You don’t have anyone to hang out with, do you?”

As Jessica laughed as she said that, the followers who were watching from behind tried to laugh too, but everyone kept their mouths shut just by looking at me.

“Jessica, you seem to have a surprisingly wise subordinate.”

“Ugh… !”

When Jessica turned around and stared at her followers, each of them coughed and avoided their gaze.

“But I think my skills are still lacking. There is no situation in which you will fall into a crisis in a test like this, but if such a situation arises, those guys are not very hot, so I will go to help!!”

“What nonsense… How did you come here to help in the tangled labyrinth? Or are you going to chase after me?”

“No, the labyrinth is intricately intertwined, but if you look for the sour smell, Jessica is definitely… .”

“aah… !! Everyone, shut up!! Shut up!!”

As Jessica clapped her hands and shouted “Shut up,” the followers standing behind them began to gossip.

“Gee, Young-ae-nim, shut up now… .”

“No, what’s more sour than that… .”

“A sour smell?”

“Ugh… !!”

Jessica, who was gnawed at the words that came out of her followers’ mouths, left her seat on her own before experiencing even more humiliation.

I shouted at Jessica, who turned her back on me in a look befitting a loser.

“Sour!! If you are in danger, I will definitely help you!!”

“Ugh… !!!”

Then Jessica’s walking speed increased even more and disappeared from view in an instant.

Time flies when you make fun of Jessica, but did you do it while taking good care of Jessica?

After spending a leisurely time on the bench, pondering regrets, after a while, Marina appeared in the center of the park with pure white snow.

Originally, Peter should have been with him, but Peter was still locked in his room, so the only teachers in the park were Marina and some of the knights’ class teachers.

“Everyone, assemble.”

It wasn’t a particularly loud sound, but strangely, Marina’s voice reached far.

When all the students who heard the voice gathered toward the center of the park, Marina tapped the floor with her staff and said:

“… It seems that everyone has gathered, so I will give a brief description of the exam to be given.”

The content of the test to be taken from now on is to break through the labyrinth created by Marina to the deepest part.

The content of the test itself is a breakthrough in the labyrinth, but if you fail to do it, you will only be evaluated for the depth you have descended.

There are traps and beasts along the way, but they are all illusions, so if it is judged that battle is impossible, there is no need to worry about getting hurt as you come back here.

“The entrance to the labyrinth will be entered in order of lower half average of the team.”

As a member of S class, I am of course the last to enter. Jessica was able to enter the labyrinth sooner than expected whether she had formed the team with this in mind.

‘How many lanes are there?’

When I looked around to see when Lane was going to start, I noticed that most of them were class A students, and the order of Lane was so late that there was no difference between me and me.

When everyone moved to the labyrinth with Marina’s magic and I was the only one left, when I stood in front of Marina, Marina looked at me with pathetic eyes, as if looking at her past self.

“Why? Maybe it’s because you’ve been thinking about the past?”

“… … No, it’s nothing. Then Ian will move the student, so get ready… .”

I relaxed my body and at the same time lowered the resistance magic that protects my body from magic as much as possible.

Soon after, a feeling of floating that I had never felt before filled my entire body, and the landscape began to change in front of my eyes, literally in the blink of an eye.

“Five… .”

When I opened my eyes, I was not standing in a secluded park, but in a gray maze of torches on the walls illuminating the path.

For a moment, I was surprised by the scenery that could only be seen in a game, and I immediately put my hand against the wall.

“Well… .”

Since all of these labyrinths were made with Marina’s magic, of course, this wall is also not just an ordinary brick, but a brick made with magic.

In other words, if you could only read the flow of magic, just standing still was the same as getting the entire map of the labyrinth.

When he becomes an Archmage, he is also good at hiding his magical powers, but in the first place, this test was premised on reading the flow of magic in this way.

‘The main character passed the test like this.’

The characters that appeared have changed quite a bit, but fortunately this hasn’t changed at all.

Having read the flow of magic to find the shortest route to the deepest part of the labyrinth, I immediately went down the path.

As it was the fastest path, there were the most traps and illusions created by Marina on the way down, but there was no way that illusions could stand up to Baldosul.

‘Should we go down to the deepest part first and then go up and look around further?’

So far, I can’t feel the unique magic of Mine. Nang-a, who was quietly waiting for the time on her waist, did not sense the magic at all.

‘Isn’t it? Or are you just so far away that you can’t detect it?’

This labyrinth was so wide that I thought it might have been too energetic to be made just for testing.

If the mine who infiltrated here was aiming for Lane as in the original story, there was a possibility that she was wandering through the labyrinth in search of Lane.

Having judged that, I hurried to go down to the deepest part, and soon arrived at the only road leading to the deepest part.

However, he could not go down to the deepest part through the road.

because… .

“… … You are finally here.”

It was because something with a katana around his waist was blocking the only way to the deepest part.
