Are you the Devil of the Labyrinth

Like pushing a dark night sky, a bright flash beats the sky. Under such repeated flashes, Arans stared out of the shield without a word. The red torch was rotting.

Goblins are marching outside the shield.

When he saw it, Arance murmured, groaning.

“Looks like they'll see the end in no time. ”

“I guess so. It's also a huge loss to them if they're dragging more time to grudge. ”

With the deputy's words in his ear, Arance remembers the face of the fairy managing this dungeon.

Lorelai, she was currently quite exhausted. She must be feeling a lot of fatigue because she has kept the shield on.

The shield was like a cracked glass that had no idea when it would break. You will not be able to withstand magic attacks for long.

Moreover, the amount of magic stored in the dungeon to maintain the shield is not very high. It was said that the magical power of maintaining the portal with Roberia was also intertwined.

· · · I wanted to move more carefully.

Arance closes his eyes for a moment and opens his eyes. A grey eye with a strong will is staring out of the shield. I decided to end my troubles. There is no more way.

Because of the magic that is exploding in the sky, the night wind has a hot heat. Arans said, feeling the gray hair shaken by the hot night wind.

“I guess I'll be home tomorrow. ”

“· · · Kick. That's a good story to hear. ”

The deputy, Lute, laughed at Arance's words.

“Lute. Bring me the constellation you prepared. We'll go outside the shield and break the damn thing that's blocking the gateway's connection. You call in the constellation, and you command the players as platoon commanders. ”

“Hm.. I command the player? That doesn't matter, but · ·. It would be dangerous. Besides, there's no way they're going to keep using the Return Stone like we did last time. ”

No matter how good they are, no one will follow them on the portal open at the Gateway. The problem was the constellation. Getting out inside is easy, but coming back is not easy.

It doesn't matter though.

Arance tightens the gauntlet made of steel and replies.

“Don't worry. I'll kill all those damn Goblins this time. ”

Last time, I was attacked by clan lords. I think it's Rod. One may have attacked, but it was quite difficult to deal with.

“Very well. I wish you a safe return. ”

Recalling the deputy's words, which were someday far away and scattered faintly, Arance nods.

*

The shield of fairies has reached its limits faster than I thought. I first checked the condition of the children on the commander's call to prepare for the fight in front of me.

“What about the armor?”

“I tightened it. ”

“Potions must be on the waist. If you think it's dangerous, don't spare it. ”

“Argh · · ·. Don't worry! Do you know what kind of kid I am? ”

“A kid who hasn't graduated from high school yet. ”

“Well, that would be true, but · · ·. ”

“Have you got your return stone? ”

"Nee · · ·."

In my words, Gil Yumi nodded with tears. They haven't graduated from high school yet, so I can't help but look like a kid in my eyes. I deliberately paid attention to her, because she was the one who would somehow be the stubborn one.

“Argh · · ·”

She bends her burning face and tightens the headband that holds the ponytail one more time, whether she's ashamed of being a child or not. It seems difficult to loosen the rope that was tied up during the fight.

Ooooooooooo!

Goblins roar on the other side. There is a hole in the shield that surrounded the town. The hole was narrowed and the Goblins began to enter the village.

As the Goblins roared more and more, the children seemed nervous and strengthened their faces. All the players nearby, the soldiers, all had a nervous face without anyone to cover.

It is the beginning of the caste.

Due to Lorelai's unwalled nature, it was best to engage inside the town. Before we came for it, the villagers and soldiers in the dungeon had already built barricades in every corner of the street.

No, where our players were deployed was a bit far from the hole in the pierced shield. Most importantly, the soldiers decided to do it, and the players decided to do it where the risk ranking was relatively low. This makes it ineffective to set players free.

Players will follow the platoon commander's orders from the platoon previously deployed. That was the same for us.

“Nice to meet you all. My name is Lute, and I am the platoon commander who will lead many of you from now on. ”

One day a young man who introduced himself as Lütte appeared before us as a platoon commander. A young man with pale blue hair, it was unusual to tie his hair back.

Besides, it was hard to know what the eye was thinking about going like a snake.

He began to identify with the platoon members. There were some players here who didn't know their names yet, not just our group. The total number of platoons is 10.

Five of us, four unknown players, platoon leader Lute. There were a total of 10 such persons. The children were looking at his face to see if he was surprised that the platoon leader was younger than he thought.

“Hmm. I'll start by explaining what's going on now. ”

He quickly explained the situation, whether it was because he thought there was no time.

What he pulled out was a story that everyone already knew. The Goblins broke through the shield and broke into the town, so you don't have to listen to them. The important thing was his last words.

“Currently, Commander Arans is leading the constellation and breaking the shield of adventurers blocking the gateway connection. What you need to do is stop the adventurers from coming here. ”

“How long do I have to stop it? ”

Lute replied with a smile to the player's question on the same platoon.

“How do I know that? ”

“· · · Yes? ”

Then the player who asked the question frowned, but Lute looked at the player with his thin eyes and opened his fist. Then a hot lump of fire emerged from his fingertips.

His flame, which flickers in the dark, is quite threatening. You must have been a wizard. You're too late to notice that you're a wizard because you have a sword hanging from your waist. I looked at Lute with curious eyes.

A player who misunderstands Lute's magic has stepped back.

“Now, wait a minute. I only asked · · · questions. ”

Contrary to misunderstandings, where his magic headed was across the barricade. The mass of fire that fell out of his hand exploded across the street as it was, causing a violent outburst. The sound swallowed up all the stings.

Magic. Magic was revealed right in front of your eyes.

But more than that, I heard screaming.

The scream of Goblins. Goblins melted into the darkness and were sneaking up on us.

Lute climbs up to the barricade that was piled up like a wall and checks Goblin's corpse.

“You just have to stay here until the signal comes. Ah, of course · · ·. ”

His voice is small. Whether born on purpose or not, such a serene voice was strangely clear even in the hot heat that flowed beyond the barricade.

“· · · If you want, you can run. Because I know that they are untrained as soldiers. ”

By the end of his speech, I heard the Goblins pounding the barricade.

Lute once again expressed his magic and detonated the Goblin.

As soon as the front of the eye shines brightly, the hot liquid and the chunks of high fat splash into the air.

I laughed at the blood on my face, stealing it from my back.

'That would be more useful than I thought.'

The look of Lute holding the Goblins with a smiling face was terrifying, but it was clear that he was strong.

But it won't be possible for him to continue using magic like that. Magic consumes a lot of magical power.

I'm using magic like that right now to inspire the players behind me.

My abilities as a commander don't look bad either.

However, it's hard to stop all Goblins on your own.

I sneak out of Lute's senses and look at Goblins on the barricade. Goblin approaches Lute with a dagger fixed with a furious young face.

His dagger is shining sharply.

If Lute suddenly attacks from behind, even though he is wearing the right armor, he will be forced to suffer a fatal injury.

I couldn't stand to watch it, so I ran out among the players who were still squeaking.

I quickly climbed up the barricade, intricately entangled with all sorts of objects, and swung my sword at Goblin, who was approaching Lute.

Ta 'ang!

I thought he attacked me before I noticed, but Goblin stopped my attack from flying behind my back.

"Kick. Kirk..! You little rat!"

He was trying to sneak up on his back, and when he got hit, a nasty insult popped out of his mouth.

I pushed him away with my feet, reacting with a smiling face.

"Huge!"

The one who got kicked by the boat literally rolled over the heads of the Goblins who were climbing over the barricades. The sound coming from the right candy bath is quite pleasant.

"Hmm?"

As he fell under the barricade, Lute turned his head towards me to see to what extent the commotion had become apparent. A cool blue pupil stares at me.

But that was all.

Lute turns his head without thanking him and puts a sword on the back of Goblin's hand, which was climbing the barricade. He certainly helped himself, but he ignored it.

I don't have time to thank you for this. Knowing that, I helped Lute without even bothering Lute's actions. Since then, it has been a mechanical operation.

Pushing Goblins to cross the barricade with their feet, cutting their backs with swords, and somehow stopping them. Labour, which is simply that.

Somewhere I hear the screams of a man who announces death, but Lute and my actions remain unchanged.

It's not the other side we care about right now. All I have to do is protect this place.

Players watching me and Lute's behavior helped us a little later. Obviously, Goblins who attack to cross the barricade are terrified.

But I don't know if we've gained the confidence we seem to be holding back okay.

"Stop it! You'll see what happens when they get over it!"

"Everybody move quickly!"

When someone started to rush in screaming, the other players began to get swept away by the atmosphere. Of course, there were children among them.

As I glanced at them, reassuring as they were gathering to fight each other, I pulled my head and looked beyond the barricade. Goblins roam the streets.

"... heh."

Somehow my head hurts.
