Episode 29 Elmer's Choice
"I will not defeat the auger. Perhaps the same is true of our people."
The three people next to Elmer nodded.
Everyone who heard about the situation felt the same way.
"Are you sure? It will destroy the Labyrinth as it is. Then the Labyrinth monsters will share their destiny."
I want to be fed so much that it disappears for nothing.
That was Augustus's wish.
The level won't go up where we defeated it, so Elmer and I were lucky to be defeated.
"That won't happen. We can save the labyrinth at the same time."
"There is no such option."
"That's probably the case with Mars and the others."
"What...?
"If I were Mars, I might come up with something I didn't even think of. That's why we need the power of the labyrinth."
Elmer says he gets a new solution by becoming the maze owner himself.
There is no doubt that the look on his face is serious.
"Ugh......"
Somehow suppress the laughter from rising.
When I looked at my friends, I wondered if everyone was happy with Elmer's choice. Ira was caressing her chest with peace of mind.
"Hmm, do you understand what I'm saying!?
Only Augur couldn't believe Elmer's choice.
We've been treating each other like parents for years. So I knew what Elmer would do in this situation.
"I'm not going to choose between the choices I'm given. Choose from the best choices you can find. Of course, if there's no other way to save Augusta, I'll be honest with Mars."
Smart. Too smart to make more choices.
"But your chosen path carries a fatal risk. First of all, how are you going to become a labyrinth lord?
"How do we get the labyrinth nucleus?
"Did you check that too?
Now I'm telling you, Mars told me himself.
"Me?
It seems that when Elmer had just grown up, he and the three of them had been drinking together.
I got drunk early, and I said, "I got qualified as a labyrinth lord for getting crystals."
"Master...."
"Mars....."
"I can't believe it....."
Sylvia, Isla, and Noel look cold.
"No, I don't remember at all....."
Something like that happened.
Evidence is presented from the labyrinth nucleus.
Are you all right? Because I was listening while thinking, I remembered what happened at that time, so I sent everyone the video of the time.
"What are you doing!?
"Well, I may have been distracted because I'm a family member."
"I only said this to my brother."
If we can get the Labyrinth nucleus, we can become the Labyrinth lord.
However, where I knew it, I never acted.
"It's hard to attack the labyrinth to the bottom."
The shallow labyrinth dots multiple places.
These attackers are missing because the monsters at the bottom are known to be unusually strong.
At least a bloody S-rank adventurer tried it.
Although he was an S-ranked adventurer who managed to return while destroying the party, he was forced to confiscate all his property from the responsibility for making his activities as an adventurer impossible by his own actions, even though he was not invited by the state.
Afterwards, the wounds made it impossible for him to act as an adventurer, so he was famous for dying in the field.
Don't put your hand behind the labyrinth.
That's what adventurers think.
"What about the boss?
"What are you talking about? Mars and the others will take him down."
"What about it?"
"Because it destroys the labyrinth nucleus. Then we can't destroy the Labyrinth nucleus without defeating the Guardian's boss. I'm going to let you touch the labyrinth nucleus through that gap."
If you think about how to defeat it, it's a completely different application.
"Use whatever is available - it was Mars who taught me that."
That's right. Unless it's against morality, use it if your heart allows it.
That's what I taught you.
It already tells me how I move.
I have chosen a way to solve the problem.
"If I became Lord of the Labyrinth, Mr. Mars would not easily destroy it."
At the very least, we don't pretend to die in vain.
"Very well. I will defeat the boss and you will be the master of the labyrinth"
The three gems nodded to Elmer, who seemed to have no objection.
However, I don't know if I have noticed the problem.
We didn't have a choice.
"No labyrinth owner or family member can have control of another labyrinth."
"- Did I say that, too?
"Yes"
I was talking about a fatal problem.
I want to beat you up with all my heart.
"That's why I'm the only one."
Only one person can be the Lord.
Even if we had a discussion, Elmer would be the one to choose from among the four.
You know what I mean? If you fail... "
"I die."
Huh?
Oh, no!
"Why!?
I was surprised that he didn't understand anything other than Elmer.
"Just because I became the maze lord doesn't mean I can definitely find a solution. If you still can't find it, you need to collapse the labyrinth."
Elmer also understands the need for collapse.
"At that time, the Lord will share fate with the Labyrinth."
"Yes, it is."
Ask them to become labyrinth lords and find another solution.
It wasn't that I didn't think about the possibility, but it wasn't something I could ask if I thought about the risk when I couldn't find it.
So I waited to find it myself, excluding it from the choices I would give.
We can't allow the augur to be sacrificed either. Still, I had no choice but to accept the sacrifice because I had no choice but to minimize the risk.
"Thank you."
Ira lowered her head as she shed tears.
"Hey, please raise your head."
"Yeah, that's not how it works. Sierra and Rick were really sweet like grandpa. It was painful to have to watch such a person disappear. I want you to live at least a little longer."
However, it forces us to live the rest of our lives in pain.
Which is good for Augusta?
After the ordeal, Isla chose a way to make her orgasm easier.
All right, if you say so, let's go down.
Wait, I won't forgive you.
"Frenzy Chain"
Tie them up with chains removed from the void.
"I don't want to hear your opinion. This is Elmer's choice."
Whatever happens as a result of the selection, it is Elmer's responsibility.
That's what an adventurer who respects freedom should be.
"But...."
It was unacceptable to Augur, who just imagined when he failed.
In fact, you are more likely to fail. Still, if Elmer himself chooses, I'll have to accept it.
"You're responsible for the situation. This wouldn't have happened if you hadn't been alone and talked to us earlier."
"But...."
I couldn't cause any trouble.
I made such a choice just because I didn't have contact with people.
"We'll have to do this later."
Everyone to the bottom.
"I'm really glad we're on a trip."
Yes?
Knowing and empowering Elmer is the only option you can entrust.
