Are you the Devil of the Labyrinth
Fostering Expeditionary Force
Lute is talking about us.
‘That is, fairies bring players together to make expeditions. ’
It only sounds like that to Yoohyun. Lute is part of an expedition made by fairies. A Soldier of Elves. The end of the expedition to which Lute belongs is a fairy. Lute's words mean that the fairies are creating a new expedition.
First of all, it is a story that is somewhat interesting. Yoohyun told Lute to talk more.
“I call myself the army, but we're not all in this together. Rather, on a platoon by platoon basis, each platoon has more personal activity. It's similar to Lorelai. ”
It is not very good to have a large crowd in the maze. It just bothers me by attracting the eyes of monsters. It is wise to move with a small number of people.
In that way, the platoon could eventually be called a party. However, if the parties feel the same as each other except for the party leader, the platoon is a real army with rank. But in the end it was similar.
“We want to bring players together to create multiple platoons. ”
“Then who's in charge of the platoon? ”
“It will be hand-picked by our expedition commanders. You probably don't have a lot of experience. ”
Yoohyun does not deny Lute's words. As Lute said, players lacked experience. I don't have any experience, exactly. A story you can't use in the maze because of what you've been through in the tutorial.
In that respect, Lute's proposal may be said to be good. Experienced platoon commanders direct the platoon and players seize the opportunity to grow under it. Excellent.
Lute didn't stop talking. There's still more to talk about.
“The equipment will also be supported by us, of course. That doesn't mean we can't all hold a nameplate or anything, but all the supplies we need for the expedition are backed up by us. ”
“It's a fascinating story. ”
“Right?”
Lute laughs. Yoohyun looks at Lute and ponders with his chin bent over the table.
Surely Lute's story is fascinating. Even more so for players at the same time now.
Exploration of the maze required a lot of money. Of course, food that you can carry without getting hurt for a long time, and it takes a lot of money to prepare things like potions and equipment.
After all, the moment I left the fairy's dungeon, everything was money. Moreover, even if it fails, the damage is quite severe. It is hard to deal with the capital of players who initially had nothing.
Originally, we would help new players in clan-like places, but there is nothing like that in today's times.
It was the first players to be summoned in the first round.
Accepting Lute's offer eliminates the risk of failure. Responsibility can also float to the platoon commander. Everything really is an attractive part.
But there is one thing I don't like.
“Do you really need someone on your side to handle the platoon commander? ”
“· · · Yes? Wait, is that a complaint? ”
Lute looks at Yoohyun as if he doesn't understand. Lute thought his proposal was a very good one. But Yoohyun doesn't seem to be.
Why? When Lute was thinking about it, Yoohyun's gaze turned towards the woman who brought bread. A hot, blooming heat enters my eyes.
It seems that the bread is now complete. There's no reason to be here now. Yoohyun opened his mouth by checking Lee Seo-yeon was carrying a basket of bread.
“You're going to join the expedition you've created, which means you have to follow the fairy's orders, right? The platoon commander in charge of the platoon is eventually a soldier of the fairies. ”
“ · · · · · · · · · ”
Lute has no words. But I don't deny it.
“I intend to explore the maze to set up an expedition myself. ”
“· · · Does that mean Yoohyun wants to be the boss? In the maze?”
“That's what it means. ”
“This is crazy. Later, I don't know, but it's not a very good choice right now. ”
Yoohyun shrugged without an answer. It's like it has something to do with anything. Lute rarely stood up frowning. We must stop this man. It's just that idea.
“I definitely saw Yoohyun's skill in the last fight. Excellent. I admit that he was terribly prominent among the players. But that's not how the maze works. ”
Fighting monsters, you must have excellent combat skills to do so. However, it was stupid to think of fighting monsters as a maze.
In order to explore the maze, not only combat abilities, but also situational judgment abilities were crucial. However, the ability to judge situations does not just arise. Experience is needed accordingly.
But there's nothing like it for Yoohyun, Lute was convinced of it.
However, the voice of Lute's loss of calm was beyond Yoohyun's reach.
Yoohyun spent a long time in the maze. I don't have pride. Nevertheless, I am confident that I can make much more accurate judgments than the platoon commander who will be borrowed from the expedition with Lute.
And most of all, it bothered me that I might be interfered with by fairies.

After all, the time spent at the bakery was about an hour. The morning air was getting warmer and warmer. Thanks to you, I don't have to worry about the bread cooling down on the way.
Though I think about giving bread to my friends, I still care about one thing.
“Hey · · ·. ”
Lee Seo-yeon grabbed Yoohyun's clothes with his left hand in a basket of bread. Yoohyun looks at her as if she is wondering about the faint power of pulling her hem from the side.
“Why did you say no to Mr. Lute? I didn't think it was a bad offer. He didn't seem to be deceiving us. Can we figure out why? ”
I spoke in a low voice, but it wasn't enough to hear Lee Seo-yeon from next door. Even though I missed a few stories, I was able to eavesdrop on both of them while playing Eric.
It's a good proposition. Lee Seo-yeon thought about it when he heard Lute's proposition.
But why did Yoohyun refuse? Yoohyun, Lee Seo-yeon knew, was a wise man and a man. I didn't think I'd make blurry judgments about pride. I can't easily imagine Yoohyun making the wrong choice about hubris. But Lute ended up frowning at Yoohyun.
Can you reconsider?
I wasn't angry, but I couldn't understand the look. Killing Goblins left a man unstoppable. I think it was more about worry than anger. In Lee Seo-yeon's eyes, Lute seemed genuinely worried about Yoohyun.
What the hell did Lute see in Yoohyun? I didn't think a Lutran man would react that way just because he fought with me the last time.
Yoohyun smiled bitterly at Lee Seo-yeon's question.
“Lute's proposal is certainly fascinating. Seo-yeon didn't think you were weird. But.”
“· · · But? ”
“I want to build my own expedition. If we accept Lute's offer, we will work under the fairies. Unlike quest, you become a soldier of fairies. ”
“But can it come out at any time? ”
“Hmm. Maybe. But there won't be much we can bring out then. Our results will not be ours, even if we gain experience. All the fairies will take it. ”
Support for exploration is attractive. Risk-free exploration. But few return that much. Eventually, everything you get from the expedition will be vomited to the fairies.
That's not the end Yoohyun wants.
Lee Seo-yeon blurred his face. I thought I knew what Yoohyun wanted to say. But I'm worried about my heart. Lute's words hover in his head.
Maze isn't as easy as you think. The monsters there are as many and as diverse as we can imagine. And the adventurers who don't know when to meet are not even in danger!
It's the right story. Lee Seo-yeon clearly remembers what happened in Lorelai. They don't stop wielding swords, they also use magic. Destroying the Barricade was a huge wreath.
Lee Seo-yeon was terrified when the flower exploded. An opponent can use magic like that. In fact, I could barely sit there because I was suffocating and my arms and legs were trembling. I did it for the first time when my body was unable to move against my will.
It is fundamentally different from the Goblins I was dealing with in the tutorial. At the moment of the fight, Lee Seo-yeon had to feel it intensely. A little more intelligent, a little more energetic. And the enemies had more power than they thought.
However, Lee also believed in the man in front of his eyes. The trustworthy image that I showed in the tutorial wasn't easily blurred by someone's words.
And in Lorelai he also showed a steadily cool appearance. I was so dumb that I could watch the back at some point. Lee Seo-yeon smiled a little.
“Then I will trust your choice. ”
Yoohyun smiled bitterly and scratched the ball.
A girl who is only a high school student is telling a shameful story. I'd like you to give me some insight into what face you said you believed in and what voice you spoke in.
However, Lee Seo-yeon walked forward, embracing the basket of bread, not noticing Yoohyun's thoughts at all. I just arrived in front of the inn.
Yoohyun, who had seen him enter the inn vigorously, scratched his back for a moment.
“· · · I've never really thought about being responsible for someone. ”
I have a lot of experience partying. But at that time, the party members felt equal, but now they are different. A lot of them are lacking. It is also impossible to find equal party members at this time in the first place. There is no way such a person could be in such a time.
If you have to find it.
“The expedition of fairies. ”
It's a meaningless story.
Yoohyun laughed and went into the inn to find out.
