Are you the Devil of the Labyrinth

The atmosphere of women talking with earrings in between was difficult for men to embrace, so Yoohyun, Lute, and the Southerners only watched from a distance.

Maybe there's a fight going on. It was about time I had such delusions.

“After....”

The strange atmosphere hovered among the women, but it was Lee Seo-yeon who eventually took the earring.

The relief of holding an earring in his hand was similar to that of an adventurer who seemed to have barely won a fight that must be won. When I opened my eyes, I even closed.

‘Is that so good? ’

Seeing Lee Seo-yeon carefully insert the earring of enchantment into his backpack, Yoohyun smiled without even knowing it. This was the first time she was greedy.

Anyway, Yoohyun listed the organized items on the floor, thankfully there was no big fight. From now on, everything on the floor was considered useful in its own right.

All the equipment that only the Goblins could use, and all the equipment that they didn't need, was left in the corner.

That way, there were four guns left after a few screenings.

[Ring of Power]

[Gloves of Wind]

[Bracelet of Energy]

[Necklace of Bravery]

Everyone sat in a circle and looked at the organized items. There was a difference of degree in everyone's faces, but I could confirm the feeling of greed. At least it was Song Ga-yeon and Lee Seo-yeon who didn't seem interested.

In the case of Song Gyeong-yeon, it must have been because she didn't have anything to use, and Lee Seo-yeon had just acquired an earring of enchantment, so he didn't seem very greedy.

Yoohyun looks at the rest of the group's faces once and opens his mouth.

“From now on, I'm going to distribute the goods. I'm thinking of picking the owner of the item. Is it okay? ”

“Yes.”

Yoohyun moves his hand, confirming that everyone nods at the same time.

[Ring of Power] In this case, it was an item to increase the power. But it wasn't a very useful item for Yoohyun. This was common to the southern archipelago and Lute, not only Yoohyun.

On average, strong men wore rings, so there was not much increase in abilities. But it was a little different with the women in it. Especially the weaker the power, the higher the figure.

That means you can't give power to a group that doesn't usually matter. In a way, the owner of the item was determined from the beginning.

Indeed, the gaze of the southern archipelago or Lute towards [Ring of Power] was dry. I tried the ring once and checked its ability, so I knew it was a useless item for myself.

Yoohyun stares at Gil Yumi.

“Let's say [Ring of Power] has Yumi. ”

“Hush. Thank you. ”

Gil Yumi laughed and took the ring cheaply. Then I immediately feel quite fond of looking up high with my fingers.

The ring with the red light was beautiful enough to look like a pretty accessory from the outside. Especially because Gil Yumi's fingers are long and thin. The ring went quite well with her.

Yoohyun then looks at Langshashen and gives out [Gloves of Wind].

“I think it's a good fit for Jungshashen. ”

“... Thank you. ”

He seems hesitant for a moment, but Langshashen takes [Gloves of Wind]. I wanted to take the gloves and feel happy that she chose to have a preference on her mouth.

Yoohyun handed over [Bracelet of Vitality] to Song Gyun, confirming that she was satisfied.

“... Yes? Why are you...? ”

She nods for a moment, wondering if she didn't think she would be chosen. Then I looked at the other group around me one by one and said in a calm voice.

“Give it to someone else, not me. ”

In those words, Yoohyun shook her head.

“No, it suits you. Item description says it soothes tired mind. It's the perfect item for you with normal mental fatigue. ”

Mental fatigue is significant in summoning and maintaining spirits. Using Lute and Lee Seo-yeon's magic consumes a lot of mental power, but not as much as dealing with spirits.

And Lute didn't have to rely on these items.

In fact, looking at Lute, I saw that he was satisfied with the choice of giving songs.

“Um... okay. ”

Song Ga-yeon nodded and took the bracelet. Shortly after, she looks at the bracelet on her wrist with a strange face. She was a dubious face as to whether it actually had that effect on her bracelet. The experience will prove itself.

Yoohyun handed over the remaining items to the southern archer while Song Gyun tried to feel the effects of the bracelet.

“Well, I'm going to give the rest to the archipelago. ”

As he spoke, Yoohyun looked at Lute.

“I don't care if you give it to Nam Gun-min. It's not what I need. ”

In Yoohyun's eyes, Lute nods with a gentle smile.

Increasing [Necklace of Courage] 's resistance to terror in the fight was not very useful to Lute. Yoohyun also gave the necklace to the Southern Archer, as he knew it.

Then the southern archer received a necklace and slightly blurred his face. Yoohyun or Lute, who had the greatest strength in the fight, felt something strange when it ended empty-handed.

“But Lute or you okay? After all, they didn't take anything. ”

Yoohyun and Lute faced each other for a moment and shrugged their shoulders.

“I'm fine. ”

“I'm fine. ”

For both of you, the items that were here were not very useful.

*

At the end of the item distribution, Yoohyun goes back the way he came into the joint.

I was a little reluctant to go back down the road, thinking there was a moss of offensive sensations on the wall and filled with a dense, unpleasant smell of air, but there was only one exit.

Moreover, it was impossible to stay in a cavity filled with Goblin corpses for a long time.

As he walked out through the alleyway of the maze, Yoohyun saw the flag standing by the entrance.

There was one thing that caught my eye while I was passing without thinking about it.

‘Red Cross? ’

I didn't know it at first, but I double-checked it here and it was imprinted with what I thought was a clan mark. A red cross was drawn on a white cloth hanging alongside the skeleton branch.

Does that mean that some Goblin clan, known as the Red Cross clan mark, has stayed here and gone? Given the group that flagged it, that was reasonably inferred.

It took some time for the dust to build up, but the cross remains dark red.

It looks pretty prominent, but why do I know it now?

Lute, who was coming out of the alley at the time, was also interested in seeing Yoohyun.

“Hmm. Seeing Clan Mark, I think I know what kind of clan it is. ”

“... what? ”

In Lute's words, Yoohyun had a slightly ridiculous face.

Are you serious, not kidding?

It was a little embarrassing for Yoohyun to see Clan Mark and know what kind of clan he was.

“How do you know that? Is that the mark of a clan so famous? ”

“Famous... I don't know about that. You don't even know which clan is famous among adventurers. ”

“Then what is it? ”

Lute smiles at Yoohyun's slightly-turned eyes. What he knew about this mark was really a coincidence, and in a way it was inevitable. It's a joke.

“Long before Lorelai died... so many of you went to help Lorelai, who was being attacked by adventurers in the early days? I was your commander then. ”

“Yes.”

It's an old story now. It's less than a year old, but I've felt a long way since there's been so much going on. Yoohyun nods at Lute's words.

At that time Lute was in charge of platoon commanding.

Lute's first encounter was with Lorelai, who was being raided by adventurers. After being thoroughly beaten by adventurers, Lorelai had to abandon the dungeon and build a new dungeon.

A huge number of adventurers attacked Lorelai.

And of course, there were a lot of clan units.

I didn't know exactly how many clans had joined the movement of adventurers who might be over a thousand, but I was sure that quite a number of clans had joined.

As a Lute who was spying on the numbers and movements of adventurers at the time, every move was so intense that his labyrinth seemed to be rotting.

However, of the dozens of clans that invaded Lorelai, there were few that stood out.

Naturally, it was noticed that the clans were soon large and powerful.

Not all clans are the same. The hierarchy between each other was clearly divided.

Lute remembered the mark on the flag because it was a clan that fought well in memory at the time. There were Goblins who were waving the Red Cross forward.

Lute remembers that day and opens his mouth with a cold face.

“At that time, there was a group of Goblins who were attacking Lorelai who were using this mark. It was a pretty good group. So I was remembering the clan name. His name is...”

Lute briefly blurred his end and confirmed that his memory was correct.

Probably, yes. It wasn't a very difficult name either.

A rather memorable and unusual name.

“... Red Cross? That's what they call it. It was a pretty unusual name. ”

"Red Cross... hmm."

Yoohyun repeated Lute's name as if rolling in his mouth.

If Lute is right, they are quite connected.
