Are you the Devil of the Labyrinth
Returning First Players
“To date, a total of 191 people have completed their former positions. ”
“... that's a huge number. ”
Iris did not hide his surprised face, according to Nymph Nerini. After the stage 1 players returned, the temple was busy enough to breathe.
Most of the players came to the temple for the transfer, which was significant.
I had a certain expectation that I wouldn't have to hear a lot of reports.
‘It's bigger than I thought. ’
The growth of players due to Lorelai's isolation was far from Iris' forecast, and thus also those who met the former conditions of excellence.
It was an incredibly explosive growth for Iris.
“I think this number will continue to grow. I'm guessing we're only 60 percent done. The queue was long, even today. ”
In the ensuing Nerini story, Iris smiled lightly.
“Is that so? Can we get about 300 people to complete the transfer? ”
“Well, maybe not. ”
Many have died. However, the players showed remarkable growth.
As a result, no matter how many people were able to transfer, there were more than 300.
It was a great number, because it broke everyone's predictions.
“... there should be about 100 players who are going to be relocating now. ”
It wasn't just about players getting a job. Getting a job was a task that received the power of spirits. It is the power of the Spirit, and the conditions are difficult in their own way.
Levels, experience exploring the maze, combat with adventurers, and more.
However, the experiences of isolation in Lorelai met all of those conditions.
Iris was a little worried about the players' unusually fast growth.
Moreover, the death of many people is also a problem.
However, it wasn't just the players who were affected this time. The Roberian Expeditionary Force, which sped heavily to get to Lorelai, also suffered considerable damage.
It was a four-story climb in as fast a time as possible.
There was also a battle with adventurers in between. After arriving, I had to fight the Goblin adventurers to activate the Gateway. I couldn't help it.
There is only one reason for this.
Lorelai's death. I was shocked when the Expeditionary Force returned and was reported.
The fairy's death was never lighter. Even if it was a fairy managing a small dungeon, it was a fairy. No longer in the category of fairies can her death be seen lightly.
“By the way, I really didn't know Lorelai was dead. ”
“... Yes. like that.”
Nerini nods with a gloomy face.
Lorelai's death shocked the fairies in Roberia.
“Did you find Lorelai's remains? ”
“They said they didn't find it. It was almost impossible to spend time searching for her remains because of the Goblin adventurers' attacks. But there may be someone who saw her die. ”
“Lorelai's death? Who is it?”
“This is Yoohyun.”
Iris smiled at the ripe name in her ear. Why is this guy's name coming out of here? Among the many players, he was a very strange man.
“When I heard the story of Priest Lorelai, it was Yoohyun who hunted down the Named Monster who was after Lorelai. Even if you didn't see her death in person, you might have seen the body. ”
“.. I saw the body. ”
Iris blurred his expression. The death of a fairy is extraordinary.
Nymphs are not human. There are no humans who don't know that.
Residents of the Dungeon all know that fairies are completely different from themselves.
But I don't know what's special about it.
One of the specialties of fairies was the power to deal with massive magic.
A fairy with enough magical power can also change Aria's geography.
It was a sound that the ecosystem of monsters could be controlled at their own pace.
The fairy made the dungeon, it was like establishing control of the Aeryer.
It creates terrain suitable for humans to live on, creates watercourses, and fertilizes the land for good farming.
All that was possible for the fairy. It just took a lot of magic.
That's why fairies need rubies. Processing the Stone to turn it into a dungeon resource.
Nerini makes a low voice with her cold-sunk eyes.
“If she was dead, she would have left that too. ”
“... I guess. ”
“Maybe he has it. ”
As he spoke, Nerini slowly raised his head, which he was bowing.
“If that's the case, I think it's better to recover it. It would be an ordinary rock if I had it anyway. If you give me something, I think I'll accept it. ”
It was also a source where fairies could handle the magic power of dungeons. Like a man's heart, a fairy has its stone. A huge bowl that can handle magical power.
It's just that. It wasn't a weapon, so it doesn't have to come out of the player's hands.
As Nerini's proposal contemplates for a moment, Iris is locked in his mind.
The question was how to approach the man.
Reports reported a few days ago also say that Lundgren's proposal was rejected.
A man of overwhelming power even among players. It is thought that if such a man creates a herd, he will create a group with considerable power. Even if it isn't now, it will one day eventually happen.
A man who refused to offer to help.
Then I think it's odd to take this approach.
What should I explain?
Iris, who was pondering those things, nodded.
“I think we should make contact. Would you like to contact Yi Hyun? ”
In Iris' words, Nerini smiles dry.
“Good timing. He's in the temple now. ”
“Everyone, be polite and line up! Th-there! No carving! ”
Lia Irias roars diligently around.
Yoohyun sighs when he sees her working in sweat.
Long.
The line is too long. Yoohyun pushes his head aside, avoiding the front man's back, and confirms the line.
About 30 people are in front of Yoohyun. This was all a line to enter the Heroes' Sanctuary.
"I didn't know it was this way. ’
Despite the passage of time, there were still many people who had work to do in the temple.
Rather, I wonder if it has increased more than the previous day.
The transfer takes quite a while. Everyone is different, but no matter how long it takes, it takes more than half a day. It took more than half a day for Yoohyun to transfer.
It takes a long time, but the number of people who can enter the sanctuary is also limited.
There are a lot of people who have to transfer, but there is a limited number of transfers that can be made in a day, so the queue has to be longer. At this point, it felt amazing that Langshashen had been transferred.
‘Approximately seven hours. ’
Yoohyun, who was measuring the length of the rope, looked up at the sky.
Lunch has already passed. I only laughed when I thought I had come to the temple early in the morning. Early in the morning, there were dozens of players who came earlier than Yoohyun.
‘The total number of people who can be transferred per day ranges from 20 to 30. ’
.. maybe we should give up today.
It was a waste of time after all.
Even more interesting is that there are many other players behind Yoohyun now.
They may be feeling it by now, too. It's impossible today.
I have to come back later. ’
It was time to kick his tongue small and try to get out of the line.
“Hey, Yoohyun! Is Yoohyun here? ”
Behind his back, Leah Irias shouts out her name loudly, and Yoohyun flinches.
Yoohyun looks back at Lia Irias.
“D-Found it! ”
As Yoohyun looks at her, Lia Irias flies in excitement, smiling like a child. Thanks to Yoohyun, everyone's eyes converged.
“Thank God. You didn't mean to leave now, did you? ”
“Until a little while ago. So why did you find me? ”
At Yoohyun's question, Lia Irias blinks and thinks of something and laughs.
“Iris told you to bring Yoohyun? ”
Speaking without lowering his voice, of course he was forced to listen to all the players around him. Yoohyun sighs as he feels his surroundings become noisy.
“All right, show me. ”
“Yep!”
In Yoohyun's sigh, Lia Irias is nervous.
Fortunately, I didn't notice.
I quickly follow her back and get away from the line. This was supposed to be lucky, but I quickly crossed the line that had to wait more than half a day to get into the temple.
If we save our chances now, we can ignore the lines and enter the sanctuary.
Yoohyun thought about it and asked Lia Irias.
“Why is Iris looking for me this time? ”
“Hmm. I don't know. ”
“.. what do you know? ”
“Umm.. Interesting? ”
“…..... ”
Okay, Yoohyun decided to stop asking useless questions. If you ask her yourself, it will help.
Following Leah after a broken conversation, I see a giant door that is familiar in its own way.
