83 Former Strongest, Going To The Underground Labyrinth
Knowing how to get freely to the labyrinth in the library, Soma had come to its entrance only early the next day.
The entrance to the labyrinth is present at the corner of the training ground.
Given that going to the labyrinth is part of basic training, it would be reasonable.
Well, technically, there's an entrance to the labyrinth, so a training ground was set up around it... well, that doesn't matter.
By the way, there is no basic roof in the training ground.
Except for dressing rooms, which are usually done outdoors.
So that we can train assuming it on a rainy day as well... Now, it is unclear how far it is genuine.
It's just basic, so there are exceptions inside, and that's one of them that serves as a gateway to the labyrinth.
"Hmm... I've never been around here before, but was this how it happened..."
When you take swordsmanship classes, you will inevitably travel to the training area.
But it was a central proximity, and this was even further on the edge of the training ground.
Perhaps, just in case.
Given that there are definitely demons underneath it, it's natural.
If you just say it on the outside, it's very normal.
Equally no difference from the surrounding buildings... so the difference is its contents.
If that's just the impression you're looking at...
"Temple… or ruins…"
"Imaginarily, that's exactly what it is. It's easier to prepare and prepare your mind than it is to be abrupt in the same way as a training ground, right?
"The atmosphere is definitely coming out."
I nod at my voice from behind, looking back.
It was something of a looking toddler, with green hair and green eyes.
He was the supreme power in the Royal College, and this time, when Soma took the exam in the labyrinth, he bought the rate and the examiner to get out.
"Nevertheless, what is the immediate exam of the Dean of the College...... is the Dean of the College actually free? He came to the library yesterday for some reason."
"I think there's something more you can say? I'm still the greatest in this college, aren't I?
"You know what?
Well, they had some business at the library yesterday, so even if I could give up a hundred steps, I guess not today.
Why is this happening in the first place because other instructors turned me down?
First of all, Karine was told as of yesterday because she is busy today, and she gets the same words from all the instructors she encounters today, including Camilla.
Yeah, about one person said nothing from this side yet, but I said I would do it or something, but the swordsman told me that I was going to see the training today, so it's a no-can.
That's why I was worried about what was going on, and this appeared and said:
Apparently, you're in trouble, so you have no choice but to do my pull and exam officer.
It was the words and deeds of the free man, no matter what he thought.
"… it is true that I am grateful for your help."
"Mm...? Uh-huh, you just have to know! I'm not the reason you're here today!... Can you thank me more?
"Don't get on with it"
Talking about that, if we went ahead there, which was like a passage, we eventually reached the large hall at the international level.
But what bothered Soma was not so much the hall itself, but the slightest discomfort I felt the moment I went in there right now.
"Hmm...? Is that... a bond?
"Though we have these things, they're not enough to prepare. Even if the demons come out of the labyrinth, they are bound so that there is no problem. Well, that's never happened here before, but given that it's part of the King's Capital, we need to take the utmost care."
I see. I nodded and headed to the center of the hall, where it was more of a staircase than a hole...
The material is probably stone, which continues straight down.
"It looks like an artifact, but you didn't put your hands on it, did you?
"At least by the time I got here, this was already happening. Considering I didn't even hear about that, maybe from the beginning."
"Hmm..."
There is a record of ancient ruins being clearly made by people, but the labyrinth is obscure around there.
Well, considering things like demons, it's hard to imagine that people made them, and if it's a record that they were discovered abruptly, it's that they exist, so it's said that God made them.
If they ask me what I made this for though, there's no way I can tell... and at least for Soma, it doesn't matter.
I might have a clue here that Soma can use magic.
That was enough.
"Well, let's just say we're going soon... but the exam is a secret, right?
"It doesn't make sense when measures are taken. Differences from instructor to instructor are one way to make it hard to guess. So there's only one thing I can tell you. Go to the tenth level."
"Hmm..."
By the way, the labyrinth exploration internship that takes place in class is basically a party for four to six people.
On top of that, safety is taken into account to the fullest by adding a student pull rate where the strength of the intermediate part is certain.
Still, there's a little bit of a pupil out there who gets seriously ill, and one or two of them even die a year... but I don't care about that information for now, so I'll put it aside.
The important thing is that the average hierarchy that can be reached at the end of the first grade of the lower division is the fifth tier.
Note that in the second academic year, it is the eighth hierarchy and the tenth hierarchy as of the end of the subdivision.
In other words, this seemingly young girl says that Soma alone can reach the average hierarchy at the end of the subdivision.
Well, nothing wrong with that.
"By the way, can I ask you the expected time of arrival?
"Well... I see it won't take two hours, something like that."
"Yes, sir."
The time available for a single tier is sufficient and a little.
The conditions are five minutes because the map is not given the same as in practice.
I have a sword, and I don't need to be ready now.
All right, let's go.
"Um, it's time for the exam."
So the Somas stepped forward to the dim end.
Marking the last step, he stepped down to the labyrinth and Soma exhaled a sigh of admiration.
I had some information about the labyrinth, but I was impressed that you were really right.
To put it briefly, it was vision.
There should not be a light source, but it was able to capture the wonders and surrounding sights with an eye.
Although not exactly equivalent to daylight, it is too much to explore.
"Hmm... you really don't know what a labyrinth is"
"Maybe it's not something I'm not even going to show you. Well, you don't just fail to be vigilant, you just have to take what you have to take."
While listening to something I'm not sure if it's such advice or what it is, I don't actually fail to be vigilant and move on.
Should I say that I dug through the ground properly? It was such a place.
This again shows no sign of a strange breakdown, but it turned around, which is a very poor prospect ahead.
This is the kind of structure you're just asking me to ambush.
- Sword Reason, Dragon God Protection, Regular Battlefield, Sign Detection Class: Surprise Invalid.
"Well, if you know what I mean, there's nothing wrong with that."
- Sword Reason, God Killer, Dragon Killer, Dragon God Protection, Absolute Amputation: Our Stream, Sickness Knife.
I wave my arms at the moment I recognize to the shadow that popped out of the moment.
It stretches to its neck without any difference and flies its neck straight away.
Back length that is man-shaped but even lower than itself.
characteristic, its pointy ears and nose.
The way I remember it is one of the typical things about demons.
"Hmm... is it a goblin"
He falls to the ground with Dosari. With his eyes narrowed to it, he wrestles his sword to the sheath of his hips.
Considering that labyrinth demons only leave the same level of demons in the same hierarchy, demons don't get extremely strong down the hierarchy, etc., there still doesn't seem to be a problem if you just step through them.
Rather, if there is a problem, that means we don't know the way, but this is already luck.
Believe in your luck, you'll have to go even further.
"Oh, by the way, I realized what to do if you get attacked from behind in this situation? Should I protect you?
"No, you don't have to. In that case, I'll take care of it. If there's a group of other enemies, I don't have to be aggressive if they're after me."
"Hmm... So what if you are targeted if the enemy has a means of ranged attack?
"In that case, it's a difficult place... well, that depends on the situation. I mean, after all, you don't have to worry about me."
"Yes, sir."
If they told me to proceed with this while protecting it, it would have been somewhat troublesome, but if that was not necessary, I would have done nothing about it.
Then don't hesitate to even move on, slash and throw away the demons you meet, and head to the back.
I guess I should strip the material otherwise, but that's none this time.
There is a limit to the amount that one can hold alone, and above all, today's purpose is not there.
Well, it's not like I don't know what's being graded, or that I'm likely to get a diminution there... but there's nothing more I can do then.
In the meantime, I only thought about moving on, executed, and ended up getting there after about five minutes had elapsed since I got down here.
"Hmm, that's not a bad pace"
"Right. I don't know, it's something that goes that far... just like that."
It is a place such as a slightly larger hall of sight, where its walls are crept through in a different way than before.
It wasn't anywhere back, left, or right, but down there.
It was a stairway to the second level.
This also looks like an artifact at first sight, but as I was advised, there's not much I can do about it.
If it's easy to navigate to it, I've never been over it.
Turn around, you have a flat figure, and if you snort, the snort returns.
Turn forward and slightly lower your gaze.
Towards that end, Soma began to descend the stairs.
