Ever since that day, Eris has kept her distance from Yoohyun's group.

I just stare at it from a distance.

Given that I tried to come next to Yoohyun every day, it was a clear change.

Langshashen's story at the time seems to have changed Eris.

No, it must have frightened me. She looked like a confused child.

Do you really care about her behavior?

By the time I could say I was almost there, Iris came to me.

Yoohyun looks like Eris, but looks at Eris' eyes with a cold color. There's only one reason she came to me like this.

”Are you here to piss me off? ”

On that question, Iris shakes his head.

”No, I don't mean to be angry. Because it's your sister and your job. And it's something that I might have gone out on my own someday. I came into the maze and stuck it in my sister's head. ”

“Then why did you come to me? ”

“I just want to know. I don't know what you want to do with sister Eris. ”

Iris' eyes turned thin at the moment. Weak, but also hostile.

Yoohyun kept her face open to such a change. Maybe you don't know something.

“My sister is pure in many ways. It's like a little kid because he doesn't ride so much. ”

At first glance, it sounds like a mocking tone, but when I looked her in the eye, I could see that it wasn't like that. The eyes of Iris were intertwined with respect and affection.

“I love that sister. She's a very lovely sister. That's why I really appreciate you saving your sister from Aaron. It's not enough to thank you enough. But · · ·. ”

· · · Iris blurred her end. The eyes became colder.

I don't know who my sister is when I see this.

“· · · Don't try to use your sister. I just want you to ask my sister for help. Even if you don't act mean, we have no choice but to help you. So next time, would you tell me, not your sister? ”

It seems that there are a lot of things in the field. I tried to use Eris to get to the ground.

Suddenly, he bowed politely and bowed his head.

“Please.“

* * *

Fortunately, coming up to the ground was a safe passage. Though some of the soldiers thought to be soldiers in the Maze City checked out, when Eris said something, they lightly passed Yoohyun's group.

“· · · This is the ground. This is the first time.“

Lute murmured as he walked out of the maze and across the center of the city. I'm staring up at the sky because I'm dumb.

It wouldn't be much different from what I saw in Aria.

But something feels different in his eyes. Lute was smiling. It was a pure laugh, not the usual fluent smile, and the group paused and waited for him to take a step.

Looking up at the sky, he stopped like a stone.

Yoohyun stares at Percy. Unlike Lute, she had sleepy eyes. When I arrived at the inn that Eris had arranged, I felt like I was going to fall right away.

“Aren't you amazing? ”

“· · · Huh? What's wrong?”

He smiles at Percy with a narrow voice. I open the yawn.

· · · There seemed to be no testimony on the ground.

“No, nothing. You must be tired.”

“Umm · · ·. Well, that's right. I've been reading your sister's journal. ”

Upon returning to the ground, Percy did not leave his sister's journal out of his hands. I was just about to read it. Yoohyun strokes Percy's head.

“· · · What. “

“Just thinking. You're struggling these days. ”

“Hmm. Then you'll give me a prize later? ”

He brings his fingers to his lips with a nasty smile. A charming smile that seems to seduce a man.

Yoohyun responded to her smile by pinching her cheek.

“Let's go back to the inn and get some sleep first. I have dark circles under my eyes. Seo-yeon is worried. Don't be too weak. ”

“Hmm. Got it. ”

Percy blurs his face and nods, as if he were a little sad, touching a pinched ball.

* * *

The inn Eris prepared was quite pleasant. In fact, it was also vague, even though it was called an inn. It's normal to have other guests besides Yoohyun's group at the inn. There is nothing like that here.

When I asked an old woman who thought she was a caretaker, she said it was one of the buildings managed by the Erinia family separately. I was wondering if it wasn't really an inn.

I can't believe you lent me a whole building like this. At this point, Yoohyun was forced to be overwhelmed.

’I became over-represented. ’

It is a thankful thing just to get up to the ground safely.

· · · In any case. It was convenient on this side. Yoohyun immediately let me unpack.

In the case of Persian, I immediately went into my assigned room and fell asleep.

It seemed true that I was tired.

The group quickly gathered on the first floor. After all, it was nothing but a load. Most of what was needed was stored in Percy's subspace.

“By the way, what are you going to do now that you've come to the ground? ”

Lute rolled his chin over the table and said.

“Honestly, it's stuck. There's no clue here right now. ”

“Certainly not. I feel like I have to start over from the beginning, so I have a headache. ”

If something helps, it's Persie's research journal.

But now Percy's asleep. I also did something to wake her up.

“Then let's take a look around the city. You'll have to stay for a while, but you'll probably need to know what kind of place it is. You might want to divide the numbers by two. ”

It was Song Ga-yeon who gave his opinion. It was not a bad opinion.

Yoohyun nodded and took out a bundle of chopped paper waiting to be drawn. When did they prepare this? I was a little questioned about that.

“My partner decides to draw lots.

“Hmm. I'll do that. ”

“Well, that's not bad. ”

Everyone nodded whether the group thought it was a bad offer or not.

That's how the lottery goes, and the combination is woven like this.

Lee Seo-yeon Lee

Nam Gunmin: Gil Yumi

∗ Langshashen: Song Gyeonggin;

Lute: Cheonseol Ho

Rough partners were also established, and Yoohyun got up first. He was staring at her to summon Lee Seo-yeon, and she was staring at the paper he had drawn.

"What?"

Like looking at something precious with your hands twitching.

Yoohyun remained silent for a while and called her.

“Seo-yeon, let's go. “

“Yes? Oh, yes! ”

Lee Seo-yeon, who was staring at the swallow, woke up from a beekeeping position.

Then he looked at Song Song Ga-yeon and lowered his head.

I can't hear anything murmuring with my mouth.

· · · Was there something between the two?

As he waited at the entrance, Lee came running quickly and stood beside Yoohyun.

”Let's go!”

It was quite a lively voice after hitting what had just come up from the maze.

* * *

The atmosphere of the labyrinth was no different from that of other dungeons.

The difference is that there are non-human races running around here.

At first I thought about where to go, but Lee Seo-yeon told me to go to the market. Yoohyun accepted her offer because she didn't have a plan. It was also the most okay choice.

The open market was just as energetic as the human market in the maze, and the voices of merchants were heard around it.

Mentions stir up the desire to buy while catching passers-by. Just by looking at it, we could see that humans and xenophobes were no bigger than we thought.

“· · · That's cute. “

Lee Seo-yeon murmured.

She was hanging next to Yoohyun because it was a crowded street. It is difficult to get lost in the labyrinth city, not anywhere else. Whenever I moved, I bumped into the residents of the street, so my hands were connected.

She was ashamed at first, but she was clutching Yoohyun's hand to see where she got used to it. Yoohyun could feel Lee Seo-yeon's body temperature in his hands, both soft and warm.

“ "

What did she say when she saw it?

Yoohyun shifted her gaze as Lee Seo-yeon looked at her.

Then I saw the little ones. Naturally, but not a human child.

‘Demibeast children. ’

It was the Demibeasts, who were about six years old.

It's probably those kids who said Lee Seo-yeon was cute.

Lee Seo-yeon couldn't keep his eyes off the children. Yoohyun stopped walking because his pace had changed slowly. Lee Seo-yeon watched the children with a loosened look.

Demibeast boys were playing with balls in the same alleyway, but they seemed to be the same everywhere. It was quite amazing to see Yoohyun skillfully raise the ball.

It's because you're a Demibeast. Thanks to your excellent physical abilities, you've demonstrated all sorts of skills.

“Whoa, whoa, whoa. Brother, aren't those kids amazing? ”

Seeing that, Lee Seo-yeon blinked. I think it's amazing.

Even though it was xenophobic, in Lee Seo-yeon's eyes, the cute children seemed to remain unchanged.

When I think about it, she used to mumble that she was cute when I saw children.

Yoohyun Lee Seo-yeon was also a child, but .

Athena's face, which had not escaped from the young girl's face, appeared to Yoohyun as a child.

She says she's as cute as she is loving looking at such children.

Yoohyun laughed at the idea that it was somehow fun. Then Lee lifted his head carefully, flinching.

“There, there, there. Was I something wrong?”

“No, it's just cute. Seo-yeon doesn't look like a child to me. ”

“· · · · Urgh. ”

It was a shame. Lee Seo-yeon bowed with a red face. Her eyes stick to the ground.

It's Lee Seo-yeon who's been like that for a while.

“· · · Then what about flammables or fumes? ”

I've been asking questions like that. Yoohyun answered without worrying.

“Little baby. ”

“Umm · · ·. So how old am I going to be? Like his sister, Percy · · ·."

· · · How old are you? It was a difficult question. And why mention Persie?

Percy is certainly an adult woman from the outside, but she has a childlike side somewhere.

I'd rather be an adult than Langshashen.

It was when I thought about the answer for a moment.

The Demibeast kid who was playing with the ball fell on the floor.

And then I burst into tears in a few seconds. Does that hurt my knee?

“Ah · · ·“

Lee Seo-yeon opened his eyes and ran to the Demibeast kid.

· · · Really. Yoohyun laughed bitterly and chased after her.
