Dungeon Master Makeup Money (formerly known as Dungeon Master Funding)

A silver-haired man came out of a temple with a labyrinth nucleus (dungeon core). A man with sharp eyes and a nervous face is staring at this one.

I don't know what it's like to be the same Labyrinth Lord (Dungeon Master).

For the Labyrinth Lord, the nucleus of the Labyrinth is as important as life. If things happen like losing a labyrinth nucleus, you lose the right to be a labyrinth master. The sudden decrease in status that happens at that time also results in the loss of the life of the Labyrinth Lord.

... is, after all, a substitute that cannot be lost on an equal footing with life.

An enemy has broken into a place where such an important object rests.

There is nothing more disturbing.

"I didn't expect you to break in this way..."

Bentler is also a labyrinth lord.

I didn't know what we were going to do until just a minute ago, but with all this time, I can calmly judge.

"You've been doing too much to pull the cage."

A junction unfolding to cover Esterbourg, for example. That is the line to inform the existence of a demon that has gone out of the city, but that notice was given not only to the Knights of Esterbourg, but also to the nucleus of the Labyrinth.

This is a way for Bentler, who can't be on the table, not to trust the Knights' people and to think about getting information straight on his own. In fact, Ventler was able to obtain fresh information.

Nobody knows the existence of a labyrinth nucleus even when we do that, so it has never been a problem, and there should never have been anything that would be a problem in the future... until we got here.

While in Esterbourg, Illis was analyzing the junction as long as time was available. The analysis of the kingdom itself was incomplete, but they were grasping something like the scissors of magic tools produced by the labyrinth, thanks in part to which they were able to shorten the time taken to analyze the metastatic crystals.

"Rest a little..."

"Me too... I have no problem with magic, but the strain on my body..."

The analysis was burdensome even if I was just used to it a little bit.

Melissa said that as long as [magic liberation] was used, the amount of magic would be numerical beyond the limit, and consumption could be zero, but the combined use of spatial and labyrinth magic would put a heavy strain on the body. It's tough to do battle with your head held down.

Especially since this is my job.

"I'm gonna go for a second, I'll take care of it later"

Leave the two of you on the spot and head towards the temple.

Then Bentler approached me.

I'm sorry, but I can't let you go any further.

"I guess. The Lord of the other labyrinths, all I can do against the nucleus of the labyrinth in front of me is destroy it."

There's no way a labyrinth can tolerate that.

Then all Ventler can do now is move forward to protect the labyrinth nucleus.

"So, you're Bentler Lonvert, the labyrinth owner here."

"I don't know. I'm Ventler."

After all, it looks like the man in front of you is the labyrinth lord for sure.

Given Ventler's skills, it would also be possible to prepare shadow fighters, but if you think about character, you can't possibly place people you don't trust in your most important place.

"What's the purpose?

"What?"

"I can't believe you're coming to a place like this until you take a risk..."

"The purpose here is to make sure you're not the kind of labyrinth lord who's producing giant demons, as I told you during the day. Looks like there really are only three of us when we see where no other family members come out over this period, but all we need to do is check the labyrinth nucleus a little bit."

Take a step towards the Temple.

The next moment, a long sword was held in Ventler's hand.

"I'm sorry, but you can't let me move on"

"Because you don't trust me, do you?

"Naturally. Even if he exchanges pledges, his opponent is the Labyrinth Lord. It's something I don't expect to be trusted to that extent."

In fact, there were many ways to rub through that degree of pledge.

But I decided to dismiss everything, considering my relationship of trust with Bentler.

"I trusted you..."

I'm so sorry.

Pull the sword out of the sheath.

"Will you end up fighting feathers"

"That's what you deserve."

I didn't mean to be hostile to you.

I was going to go home if I found out I wasn't an enemy.

"I had no interest whatsoever in what you guys did. If you want to control the people in this country freely, you just keep going."

It's the freedom of the Labyrinth Lord no matter how he uses the power of the Labyrinth.

Even I prepared gold from a [treasure chest (treasure box)] to pay off my debts. I have magic tools if I need anything else, or I enjoy the adventurer's life with the status he raised me. Thanks to this, I live without struggling with money.

That's why there are parts of it that I can't give in.

"Temehe and the others, they're going to destroy my family."

Farah said, "I can destroy you every home."

That means destroying Alistair.

"I'm sorry, but there's not just my oldest daughter, there's also a newborn twin. You can't forgive whoever threatens my quiet life."

I can't be relieved if I don't at least be able to get my hands on it.

They're already hostile from the other side. I am not in a situation where I can choose a raw and warm means of resolving things through discussion.

"Right. I may have made a few wrong choices. But I had made the same decision where I knew it beforehand"

"... can't you trust me?

"There's that too. But I... the Labyrinth Lord here has always ruled over others without trusting anyone."

Human beings ruled by skill.

There's no way you can build trust or anything between people who are not ruled if you're only dealing with those people.

"How can you be so constrained to rule"

'Cause it's fun.

"Fun......?

I lose words to unexpected answers.

More, I just thought there was an answer like that.

"This country is the founder of the Lonverts - you're my ancestor. Before he became a maze owner and created a system like the one we have now, he was annoyed by disparities in status."

At that time, there was a terrible exploitation of those below by those above.

Aristocrats take wealth as they squeeze it away from civilians. And there was no taken civilians or just silence, and the negative chain of those who were less identical than themselves - those who were "above" exploited from those who were "inside" and those who were "inside" exploited from those who were "below" continued.

That chain was eventually to be taken on by 'slaves' and dumped as consumables in the Kingdom of Estalia.

It was the founder of the Ronvelt family who succeeded in attacking the labyrinth at that time.

The person used the power of the labyrinth to dominate people by economic means, trying to eliminate at all the differences between the rich and the poor due to their identities.

"What do you think that person thought he was doing then? Of course, it's superiority over looking down on people. That's really good. I let them chase me through when I became a labyrinth lord, but I felt so good. In fact, I feel better than I imagined when I tried. A situation where no one can turn against themselves is clear."

Ventler speaking with a trance grin is a bit disgusting.

"You're a Viscount for that."

"Naturally. If you give him the title, he will have more trouble with the table for that matter. I just don't feel good about the title being overlooked in the tabular world. Just about the Viscount I can handle up and down there."

He's only really interested in dominating, and he doesn't seem interested in raising the title at all.

From me the civilians make all nobility seem the same, but some of them make a leap to raise the title a little bit. He's a completely different kind of heterogeneous guy from those people.

"But you ruined that life. There have been many people trying to find us so far. But it was crushed at the stage where they all started looking into it. You know why."

If the investigation is to be conducted, it will take place in Esterbourg.

Unfortunately, Esterbourg is like in Bentler's belly, so everything falls apart, and the fact that Lisbeth is there makes assassination easy.

"On this occasion, I will eliminate you -"

"Try it, you caged bastard! I'm gonna bump you till you can't get back on track."

Run with swords in each other's hands.
