Are you the Devil of the Labyrinth

“Host, any good news lately? “

A Goblin adventurer puts a silver coin on the table and politely asks.

The old Noum, who was wiping the bowl, stared at Goblin. Noum quickly examined Goblin's armament.

I see armor that looks solid with a practical side, but rudimentary with a rune sword.

It is not a prominent outfit.

But all the potion bottles on the waist zoom are fine. It was also difficult to get all the potions of the temple.

Noum determined it was a pass.

“From the equipment, I don't think that's what you're thinking. Goblin strikes are pretty basic."

There are many Goblin adventurers. It was the Goblins who had different feet when they walked down the street.

The impression of a Goblin adventurer was not very good, as the majority were not very good at it.

“Haha · · ·. Right? I'm glad you like it. ”

Goblins laughed awkwardly.

I was used to this.

Rather, you can call it favorable.

El Cabor, the city of world water.

That was the name of the maze city where the Goblin is now.

El Cabor was a maze city pioneered up to the 11th floor.

The city that leads to the depths.

Its reputation is famous among adventurers.

That's why there are so many good adventurers.

On the contrary, however, there were also many unskilled adventurers. A mix of adventurers was Elcabor, the city of the world's water.

In that regard, Goblin Adventurers had a very low position in the city.

It was said that Goblin Adventurers are not a place to change their names, as there are also cities called rankers.

“What are you here for? Is this the last known Masonry Stone? Or is it an expedition? ”

Goblin thought about it for a while and replied.

“I'm thinking about exploring. In the case of Masonry, there are no reliable members yet, not only equipment. So we're going to have to save the party in stages. ”

Masonry.

It was a cornerstone that has become rapidly known among adventurers in recent years.

Masonry is also a type of Demonic Stone. It wasn't from monsters in the common maze.

It only came from monsters called Beasts.

This became famous because of the ongoing war between the Orcs and the Demibeasts.

Masonry was an important resource in the war.

A stone more expensive than gold.

That was the current nickname for Masonry.

Because of the ongoing war, several factions were gathering carefully.

As a result, the demand for adventurers has increased.

“How far do you think the activity class is? ”

“· · · I'm thinking of up to 10 episodes. ”

More than I thought.

The old wrath slightly widened his eyes.

“Oh. Up to the 10th floor? I don't think you're bluffing when you look in the eye. ”

From the 11th floor, it's called interrogation.

It was the area of activity of the rankers who often spoke.

In that regard, the ten-step rule means that the rankers have a zone in front of them.

But it's not that great here.

“You must be a better adventurer than I thought. ”

With admiration, Goblin scratches his back hair and laughs awkwardly.

“But it's a series of searches rather than combat days. It serves primarily as a guide to what is commonly said. “

“But it would be great if we got there. ”

Guidance can be said to be the role of finding the way within the maze.

In a way, it seemed to be a very important role.

Just being able to get back to the hierarchy on time without getting lost in the maze saves you time.

Sometimes you can't find the right path, so you can't ignore it if you think there's an extermination party.

“Would you like to have a drink? It's free."

Goblin nods as Noum throws out his cup and asks. There is no reason to speculate that it is free. It didn't taste so bad when I put it in my mouth.

“I have good news when it comes to navigation. “

"What if it's good news? “

“They found the ancient dungeon on the 10th floor. About 400 years ago. ”

“400 years. · · ·. ”

Lively in the eyes of Goblin.

Quite an old dungeon.

At that time, there were no fairies for humans.

“The Ancient Dungeon is full of undead made of mortals. It's never worth it. ”

“I know very well. ”

A dungeon deep inside.

They were human beings who lived in such a place and would have had that much strength in their lifetime.

You can see how strong those humans would be if they became undead without having to check.

But there is just as much treasure there.

Strong humans are strongly armed.

The armament remains unchanged even after death.

If this equipment is nothing, it may rust over time, but it is different from something with special powers.

A long time ago, something in the dungeon meant that it was just as good a weapon.

“What do you think? Interesting? ”

Noum pulls his tail and asks.

I'm not interested.

Moreover, the demand for weapons has been enormous these days.

All because of the war.

Strong weapons were bought expensive by the soldiers of each tribe.

A human weapon would cost more.

‘Ancient Dungeon. ’

Ancient dungeons are found as they get closer to the heart.

The lowest of the hierarchies found was about eight. At least not the most common dungeon.

Not bad. Goblin smiles inside.

Perhaps you'll find the Demon King's artifact with luck.

When I found it, it was worth calling.

The power of the Demon Monarch's artifact, which was only rumored to have wandered around, was proven in Istria two years ago.

The catastrophic event that cut off hundreds of adventurers on its own was still a buzzing story.

It was the first time in history that a human was forced to come out on the ground and destroy a maze city.

Adventurers focused their attention on the human sword.

Everyone was convinced that the Black Shiny Devil's artifact was obvious.

”But I don't have all the good news. ”

A word that awakens the Goblin who was wet in her dreams. In Noum's words, Goblin coughed.

“I don't know if you're aware of it, but the army of factions has recently begun to get involved in the maze. Probably because of the war. ”

“· · · And so are our Goblins. ”

Currently, the war is only between Orcs and Demibeasts.

But that flame was widening nowadays.

Moreover, I was worried that the two factions might not know what was happening as they increased their armies.

As the war lengthened, the two factions continued to grow stronger and weaker.

In particular, the power of Masonry gave a large septum to other tribes.

I was carefully improving my power because I knew what would happen when it came to them. Rumor has it that each faction is developing military magic.

”But that doesn't mean soldiers intervene openly in the maze. At least we're trying to keep the Adventurer's Tal. I don't know if you can help me, but I've seen some strange guys lately. ”

“Are you suggesting that the soldiers might intervene in this ancient war? ”

"Well, yes. I don't know from the outside. So be careful. ”

The flames of war are gradually widening, but there were still countless races that maintained neutrality. Minotaurs or ogres were representative.

As powerful as they are, they are relaxed. Above all, the labyrinth was a neutral area.

Two years ago, the same thing happened to Aaron.

Even if the Orcs and Demibeasts were called to power, the other factions still had to see it.

"Hmm."

No matter how crazy they were, they never attacked a common adventurer.

As soon as the Demibeasts start working again, they won't be able to move on like Aaron did.

But I'm still worried.

What if the Orcs and Demibeasts show interest?

You may not get caught up in useless conflicts if you go wrong.

“You. Don't take it too seriously. “

He laughed and said, "Old Noam.

“At least this is the Elves' area. It's not a land ruled by weak Noums like me, like Easteria. They won't be able to move. ”

“ · · · · · · · · · · · · ”

All races are equal.

But that was wrong.

All races are not equal.

Sequences between each other were clear.

It's a sad story.

Two years ago in Istria, the Demibeast soldiers behaved so arrogantly.

The day the demon came up from the maze, they took Aaron for an opportunity and fled.

That was so cowardly.

They ignored the inhabitants who were dying from those who turned into monsters.

But the Noums couldn't do it.

It is a tribal rivalry.

What can't be done with the power of the minorities.

Goblins swallowed the stings.

“Were you there two years ago? ”

“I was there. I lost my son there. ”

“ · · · · · · · · · · · · ”

"That was horrible. The armor he had collected for five years because he became an adventurer was cut clean. That's the first time I've seen two dead bodies. All the swords and armor were cut off. He said a man named Devil of Maze would have killed him. ”

Noum said boldly.

It's like someone else's work.

Goblin was also in Istria at that time.

But when the incident was happening, I was in the maze, so I couldn't see for myself what had happened.

There were only so many bodies Goblins saw.

The mountain of the corpse was there.

Bloody water flowed like a river on the side of the road.

The city where Masso was scattered was hell.

In the rain of Masso falling from the sky, the inhabitants of Masso died without even knowing why.

The incident must have been human.

The word demon in the maze has been known to everyone since that day.

Funnily enough, the Goblins were not ashamed of what happened in Hayra.

“· · · I have to go now. ”

Goblins rose from their seats.

It's a silver coin that I thought of floating lightly.

But it was worth more than I thought.

“What's your name? ”

Noum asks when he comes to the door.

“My name is Carlan. ”

“I see. That's a good name. I wish you all the best. “

Nazic nods and Carlan comes out of the tavern.
