Are you the Devil of the Labyrinth

Returning First Players

She looks up from the room, guided by Lia Irias.

At a height of about 3 m from the ground, she floated in the air.

“Long time no see, Yoohyun. ”

A cold, youthful voice like snow on a winter day.

Yoohyun nods with a small nod at Iris Irias' greeting.

“Long time no see. Why did you call me this time? ”

“Huhu. Aren't you coming to see me anyway? ”

I needed Iris' permission to enter the Heroes' Sanctuary.

“Well, even so. ”

Iris knew Yoohyun had something to do with the Heroes' Sanctuary. I don't know why, but I want to see the spirit of the contract. I'd like to ask you why.

I may live with unnecessary vigilance.

The man in front of me was such a man. Argh, I don't keep my guard like a street, but that doesn't make me a favorable person. In a way, it was neutral.

With silver eyes on Yoohyun, Iris smiles softly.

“I hear you've played a tremendous role in the Lorelai crisis. He said that many people could live because of Yoohyun's work. Besides, I've heard a lot about Arans. ”

“.. Are you suddenly setting it up? ”

Yoohyun trembled at Iris' words. I felt more curious than I felt about Iris's compliments.

I didn't mean to compliment you like this.

“All fairies are grateful for their role in the Lorelai crisis. If all the players had died in this situation, it would have been very difficult. Thanks to Yoohyun's help, we avoided the worst. I repeat, thank you. ”

Thanks to my help...

Yoohyun shook his head.

“I'm not fighting for you. You fought for me. So there's no reason to thank me. ”

“Huhu. Right? ”

Despite Yoohyun's stubborn attitude, Iris smiles without losing her smile.

Yoohyun sighed with a small sigh in her eyes.

“So why did you call me after all? I don't like to talk more useless than this. Can you tell me the truth now? ”

Iris erased her smile and made a serious face.

Rather, it was comfortable for Yoohyun.

“Can I ask you a question? ”

Yoohyun nods as she looks at her cold pupils, where only serenity has come as the color has disappeared.

“If that's what I can answer. ”

When Iris asked politely, Yoohyun could not refuse either.

“Have you seen Lorelai's death? ”

“No.”

The answer was fast.

Yoohyun answered without worrying a bit, and Iris nodded with a calm face.

“Is that so? Have you seen her body? ”

“No, unfortunately I didn't even see her body. When I tore the top of the monster, it had already melted all over the body. ”

“... which means she was eaten by monsters and died. ”

“That's how it goes. ”

I didn't hear it until then, so Iris closed her eyes to calm down the emotion that was shaking. Lorelai wasn't the fairy who would face such a miserable death. Is this also his karma?

Slowly she opened her eyes and said in a sinking voice.

“It's sad. ”

“It was a good fairy of its own. ”

Iris was interested in Yoohyun's expression as he spoke.

“Did Yoohyun like Lorelai? ”

“At least I didn't hate it. It was kind to the players."

“I see. Then we'll have to try harder. To help build a good relationship with players as good as the dead Lorelai. ”

“Yeah, try hard. ”

Yoohyun smiled as she spoke with a serious face.

It wasn't a laugh, it was just a dry laugh.

“So this is how it's done? ”

“No, there's one last thing left. Actually, it's a question I have to ask. It's also why I called Yoohyun. I'd appreciate it if you could just tell me the truth as much as you can. ”

Then, Yoohyun looked at her.

“Did you get this by killing the monster that swallowed Lorelai? ”

I wanted to see if there was a small breeze, and a circle of beads appeared in her hand spraying fascinating colors. The bead looked almost the same as Yoohyun had.

What to say about gems, beads, etc.

Anyway, seeing it as a beautiful stone, Yoohyun nodded.

I don't think a lie will work. And when I look at Iris, she looks pretty serious.

It's hard to live with her doubts because she's lying.

“I split the top of the monster and found the gem. ”

“.. is that jewel still with Yoohyun now? ”

“What are you going to do with it? ”

When asked, Iris empowered her voice and answered.

“I intend to negotiate with Yoohyun. ”

“I don't want to negotiate. Why don't you go see if that jewel is pretty important? ”

“Yes, it is. It's a precious gem for us. ”

"Is that so?"

Hmm, Yoohyun looks at the bead in Iris' hand. I felt it while using an over-weapon, but it was clear that the bead had a huge amount of magic stored in it.

It's great to have such power in a small bead.

.. Why did you leave Diana with the quest?

Maybe I didn't have to ask her.

‘No, that's not it. ’

I didn't think Iris would come this close. Anyway, I think it's something of value to fairies, so I was going to investigate it in secret.

“Let me ask you one question this time. ”

Yoohyun answered her question several times. So this time it was Yoohyun's turn.

Yoohyun asks before he even sees her nodding.

“What's that jewel doing? It contained a tremendous amount of magical power. ”

It's just a bead that has a beautiful color that can only be seen from the outside.

She hasn't had an answer in a while. But that did not avoid the answer.

When heavy silence wrapped between the two, she said.

“This is Dungeon Heart. ”

.. Dungeon Heart?

As Yoohyun, I had no idea what exactly he was doing.

Iris noticed Yoohyun's reaction and smiled.

“As Yoohyun said, it is a jewel to contain the magical power needed to control the dungeon, so there is a tremendous amount of magical power. ”

“The magic power needed to control the dungeon...”

Certainly, it must contain a lot of magical power.

It's a great thing.I can't believe it's still alive with that huge magic power.

If the magical power contained in it is enormous, the magical power that flows through it must also be enormous.

But there was nothing like that in the bead. A great object to store magical power without loss.

"It may not be necessary for a normal person."

“Yes. It's not very useful for Yoohyun. ”

“If only that bead could make a dungeon? ”

“No, this is something that only fairies can handle. If that were the case, the adventurers would have built several dungeons in the maze by now. ”

Dungeons that have been subdued by adventurers for hundreds of years are quite significant. That means that Dungeon Heart is also in the hands of some adventurers. But I've never heard of dealing with it.

Only fairies can handle this.

'Dungeon Heart... That's interesting stuff.'

Anyway, I knew exactly what Iris wanted to say.

“I'm sorry, but I can't give you Dungeon Heart right now. ”

Yoohyun can find a small repercussion in Iris' eyes.

But like I didn't lose my calm.

“That's useless stuff that Yoohyun has. It's just a beautiful jewel. ”

Yoohyun shook his head, denying her words as if confident.

“No, that stuff is pretty useful to me. ”

“... useful? ”

In Yoohyun's firm attitude, Iris frowned on her beautiful brows as if they were carved.

Yoohyun, staring at her distorted expression, pulls out her words.

“But from now on, it might change your mind about what you're going to do. You just said that. He wants to negotiate with me. ”

“In case you're wondering, did the words you just said come out for negotiation? ”

“No, I didn't mean to make such an effort. You don't have to believe it if you don't want to believe it. I'm not gonna tell you to trust me. I just want you to know. ”

Yoohyun shrugs her shoulders as she narrows her eyes with a daze of doubt.

Yoohyun doesn't care whether she believes it or not.

But one thing is clear: Yoohyun only told the truth.

“And I'd like you to come down to the ground. We're negotiating now, right? ”

“Got it.”

Iris, who accepted Yoohyun's words, descended from the air and landed only on the ground, as if he were snowing at the height of Yoohyun's eyes.

Yoohyun smiles at her face.

“Now, let's hear what you have to offer. ”

She slowly lifts up her eyes as she descends to the ground.

Still, it is thought to be an unchanged cold color. Her eyes remind me of winter.

She speaks in a bold voice.

“What I'm trying to propose to Yoohyun is the blessing of a fairy. ”

Anyway, Lee Seo-yeon is next.
