The bottom level of the labyrinth.

Currently, there is a magic circle that connects to the 99th floor on the hierarchy that has reached the 100th floor, and the entrance to the lower floor was the magic circle.

But now that we've reached the 100th floor, there's a pure white door in the back on the other side.

Are you sure you're okay?

Sylvia in the back asks anxiously.

I also know why it looks like that.

"It shouldn't be what it used to be."

Some time after the battle with Zeon was over, I stepped across the door to see the labyrinth change.

If there's an unknown region, I have to explore it as an adventurer.

But... the search failed.

I could move freely, but even my dependents, Sylvia, would stop moving like time had stopped if they weren't near me.

The exact size is 10 meters around me.Even if we all try to explore together, we still have to act firmly.

Above all... it seemed like nothing more than a space to explore.

"Something may be changing now."

"That's right..."

The labyrinth was expanded by the goddess Ceres.

As a result, I was notified that the number of pillars supporting the world had increased to four.

"-Let's go."

When the door is pushed open, the door that should hit the wall opens into the back....

"The view is the same as before."

A world of pure white space.

It spread across the bottom floor.

“So, would you like to see if anything has changed for us?”

"If that's the case, I should do it."

Ira bent over to Melissa's words and ran out.

If you don't have time to stop acting suddenly, you'll reach a distance of about 100 meters in no time.

It's more than ten times as far away from me as it was when I visited you before.Still, Aira is jumping around to show that there is no problem in moving her body.

"He's..."

“I tried to help you, Isla.”

"But what are you going to do if something happens?"

Well, before, you could move when Mars got close, so you thought it would be okay this time.

Last time, yesterday.

The same laws (rules) as last time are not always applied even though they come to check how they have deteriorated.

Worst of all, it could have been stopped because it was too far away from me.

"I've figured it out."

Oops.

I used Summon (Samon) to summon Aira, who kept jumping all the time.

"Since Zeon came back, we can't just leave the mystery of this world alone."

"Probably only a labyrinth that reaches 100 floors underground can visit."

I confirmed that the labyrinth of the Imperial City had not changed since the Labyrinth of Allister had been expanded to its limit to support the words of Iris.However, I only found that it was in the same state as before.

The condition is to expand to 100 floors underground.

"And then something happens when the fifth labyrinth expands to its limit."

All I know is when the three or four pillars appeared.Either way, we didn't do anything, and the area of activity widened.

With more labyrinths expanding to the limit, there is no doubt that this world will be affected in some way.

"It was understandable that the scope of activities had expanded.But there's no point in acting in pieces in a world where there's nothing like this.Try not to leave as much as possible and start exploring.... "

"... it looks like nothing has changed."

Aira murmured as she narrowed her eyes and looked into the distance.

I'll look in the same direction.

"... there's something there."

It's too far apart, so I can only tell that there is something.

However, since there was nothing to block between them, it was possible to capture the shadow of something like a small dot.

“Just a moment.”

Melissa uses the [Telescope] to create a large lens so that distant sights can be seen.

A city somewhere?

Even if the magic is far away, it's too far away to be seen, so the exterior walls are built in preparation for the monster's attack.Then it was like a tower that seemed to grow from the outer wall.

It is large enough to be called a village.

"Was there something like that the last time you came?"

"Didn't you just notice it, or did it just emerge...?"

Even Melissa and Iris couldn't give an answer.

When I visited five years ago, I gave up exploring for fear that if I stayed too far away from me, I would become immobile and become immobile forever.

I was the only one left unaffected by the shutdown, so I visited several times, but the search was also completed in a short time.

The reason lies in the sight of this world.For a short time, or if there is someone next to you, you can endure it, but if you are left alone in a world where there is nothing, you cannot endure it even with the spiritual strength of the Labyrinth Lord.

The labyrinth has a strict hierarchy of environments.Inside, it can be white with heavy snowstorms or pitch dark with dark caves.Even in such a place, I could understand that 'there is something'.

However, it was understood that nothing was visible here.Because of this, even the existence of "myself" became ambiguous, and I fled back to the only existence connected to my own labyrinth.

This is the first time you've found anything but a door that connects the labyrinth to this world.

Behind them was the same door as the one on the bottom floor.

I have never tried it for fear of disappearing, but there is no problem if I leave it open for at least half a day.

“Can I get in touch with you?”

It looks like there's nothing wrong with the contact.

I was relieved to hear back from Labyrinth Synchronization without any problems.

Instead of the labyrinth nucleus, it was impossible to stay in touch with the family members who hadn't accompanied me before, so the functionality was expanded.

"If there is something at the door, please contact me immediately."Suspend exploration and return no matter what. "

Roger that. I'm wondering what's on the other side.

The labyrinth core wanted to know what would happen when the labyrinth expanded to its limit.

That's why I wanted to explore the other side of the bottom layer.However, I did not intend to risk my life as a labyrinth lord to explore, and I did not intend to take the initiative to go there.

But if you want to explore from me, you can help me.

But be really careful.All I know is the change of the door on the labyrinth side.No matter what happens in that world, you can't sense it, and you can't even cover it.I don't know if my knowledge will be useful. "

The labyrinth core can only be managed by the labyrinth to which it belongs.

And, although it was a world that could enter and exit through the door that appeared on the bottom level, it was a space separate from the labyrinth, and the labyrinth core could not know any information.

Similarly, [Labyrinth Operation] and [Labyrinth Magic], including [Map (Map)], did not all work in the same way as in the labyrinth.

A map of the locations you've explored will be created, but you won't even be able to get information on the locations you haven't explored.

It was treated entirely as' outside the labyrinth '.

“I know, but it's a change I've finally been able to find.”

I can't help but explore the city that showed up.

”...... be really careful.”

Cut off the worrisome labyrinth core conversation and walk in the direction of the city.

However, it took spiritual strength to move toward a city that looked like a mirage in the desert, and more than half a day had passed when I reached the city.

"The City of Dodo"

Read the name on the sign on the city gate.

It's an unheard of name in the neighborhood, and if the distance traveled in this world is linked to reality, it's possible that you've left the Kingdom of Métis given the distance traveled.
