After dinner yesterday, I signed an employment contract with all of the Hatch tribes.

This time we exchanged not verbally, but in a pledge.

I. About salaries

three meals and dwellings shall be guaranteed, and wages shall be subject to a decision with the chief

Two, about going out.

I don't go out on my own when I go out. Be sure to contact me even in case of emergency

Three, about the holidays.

Weekly holidays shall be established. However, it is forbidden to go out until the internal affairs have settled

IV. Other

Being involved with multi-racial people in the workplace, but not causing problems

Let it be a six-month employment first, and we decided to switch to full employment once the honey production business had progressed.

No dissatisfaction was raised about this contract.

Quickly they will be starting work today.

Right now I'm heading to the labyrinth to secure the Demon Stone.

It's the composition of Lionel and Ketty, Keffin and Yarbo.

"Keffin, I gave you permission last night, but why did you guys come here instead of the Basels?

My escort was always replaced by a squad, but he asked me yesterday if I could do that, so I accepted.

But I'm so free on the road to the labyrinth of obsession that I decided to ask why I replaced Keffin.

"In fact, some of the Basel squads were attracted to the slaves Mr. Naria teaches, and he asked me to protect the healer's guild if I could,"

"Homosexuality... you're young. But that's how I feel important..."

"Luciel stinks of old age. Luciel is still twenty."

"It's a little too early for that aspect to grow old, but church officials hear a lot of the same"

When I spoke to the old man, Ketty stumbled on me and Lionel credited church officials with doing so in one lump sum.

It did say that if you stopped drinking Object X, you would also decline because of JOB... do you want to drink Object X again?

Before you do that, you're gonna have to give your remarks back to me?

But I saw the labyrinth before I denied it.

"... that's kind of a bad time"

That's what I whined about.

Arriving at the labyrinth, I used my hidden keys to enter the open stables as well as Forenoir.

Maybe it was a good idea that you explained that the labyrinth was dangerous.

I decided to talk to him once before going into the labyrinth.

"... going up once and for all based on the last map. I don't think there are many demons, but let's not be alarmed."

"Ha."

We entered the labyrinth of obsession.

"... am I the only one who doesn't think the number of demons is somewhat decreasing?

Lionel and the others answer my question.

"No, you're getting more than before"

"There's a lot of them, but the demons that come out change a little bit."

"Isn't that a little bit of a problem?

Immediately after entering the labyrinth, many demons appear from one level, unlike when they were previously exposed.

"The labyrinth is usually weakened if you step through it, right?

But no one has the knowledge to answer that.

The demons that show up this time have a mix of undead parts, so I purify them even though I don't think they're funny.

I didn't know what the hell was going on, but I was beginning to hope that this minute would get me the demon stone of my goal in a day.

Continue to light the map on a tier by tier basis. It is roughly five minutes in physical sense.

Demons of this magnitude could all have stood around at their leisure.

There was a change in the demons, but fortunately there was no change in the labyrinth aisles and there was no problem going up the hierarchy.

After repeated battles and demon stone retrieval, we came to ten levels in less than an hour.

"I don't think there's a problem, but safety comes first."

Everyone snorted when they laughed at me with safety first.

Boss, out of the room were two Red Lizard men and an undead Red Lizard man.

When I immediately purified the undead Red Lizard Man using purifying magic, Keffin and Yarbo squads were all defeated in the attack at the same speed.

"Exactly. We're both working out."

Complimenting Keffin and Yarbo, Lionel and Ketty seemed a little dissapointed.

We decided we wanted to fight anyway, but didn't feel the need to bother listening to it, and I praised Keffin and the others before heading up the hierarchy.

"... I don't know, the number of undead increases every time you go up?

"Sounds like it. However, if it is undead, it will slow down, so it looks good for Luciel to gain combat experience."

"I try my best, but I haven't gotten a single level since I went into the labyrinth?

"I defeated the Red Dragon, so it's natural not to go up with the demons around here."

I heard apparently the level won't rise easily in the future, then shouldn't you drink Object X?

No, if it loads of dust, we should use leveling as a fitting word.

Two ideas were antagonistic.

The boss of the twenty tiers was two red oaks and a big firewolf, but there was no turn for me here.

Lionel slashed the red oak, Ketty dropped Firewolf's neck, and fourteen of Keffin and Yarbo squads gradually dealt damage and defeated him in a coordinated attack.

"You could have knocked him down easier, couldn't you?

I'm sure they have the strength to defeat Red Oak by themselves.

He's stronger than me, so there's a desire to be...

"This is a confirmation of collaboration. The demons will gradually become stronger, so I don't want to get stuck like last time."

Everyone nodded when Keffin said so.

"No problem then. Safety comes first."

I laugh and go further up the hierarchy.

"Yet you're willing to go up the stairs better and better."

That's what Lionel asked me as I was walking up the stairs to the 25th floor.

"I hate to go into the labyrinth on my own, but it's because some combat freak is reluctant. If there were more Demon Stones that were strong enough for that, the number of Demon Stones needed would be reduced, too, right?

That's what I said, and I went up the stairs to show you.

It was Firebears and Reis who showed up in the boss room on the thirtieth floor.

I was reflexively activating purification magic the moment I saw Reis.

Reyce turned the figure into a demonic stone to melt.

Check to see if anyone is abnormal, but this time it was okay.

Firebears were a few of the Keffins and suffered minor damage, but they were good enough to win.

And I decided to take a lunch break here.

"Earlier the demon was definitely Reis. The forty levels of this labyrinth are Chimaira, 'cause you were told the first time you met Lord Jasuan, right?

"I was saying. Lucielle is too easy to wipe out Lace."

"Sure that was awesome. I think that's why I climbed up to the S-class healer."

"... Reis will be a miscellaneous fish for me. The magic of a state anomaly that Leis lets go doesn't work at all... so I've only died once."

"Why not?

"It would be nice if I were alone, but the people around me are in a state of confusion, because they're attacking me. Defeating Reis first would continue to be a state of confusion, so my people wouldn't stop until I multiplied the recovery."

"I see. Is that why you were activating magic so quickly"

Lionel was thinking as he touched his jaw.

"Today's the dish Naria made me around the corner, so let's eat"

When I took the dish out of the magic bag, I gave instructions to eat it first and started purifying it because I forgot to hang purifying magic on the room.

None of the people who dived with them into the labyrinth of trials died, nor did they quit the Holy Knight or the Clerical Knight......

I decided to shake off the feeling of darkness and have a delicious lunch.

The undead stopped coming out of the thirty-one hierarchy for some reason.

While he remembered a little anxiety in this labyrinth, he proceeded without struggling to reach the labyrinth and reached forty levels.

It was Keffin who opened his mouth there.

"Weird, they're not here."

"Them?"

"Class S... Dear Luciel, These are the adventurers who were making bases here last time. It's weird that they're not here because they're hunting adventurers!

Keffin gradually regained his composure by being told by Lionel where he was a little excited.

I had a really bad feeling watching Keffin like that.

The labyrinth that was supposed to sedate was activated and even appeared as an undead demon that wasn't there.

Originally, adventurers are called cleaners hunting adventurers who aren't where they're supposed to be.

"Remember when I said I wouldn't take a big demon stone to the fifty-first tier?

Everyone snorts.

"Maybe those cleaners touched the demon stone"

"But I don't think they have any protection."

"Flame Dragon said I should only be on the 51 tier once. That way, it wouldn't be weird if the Demon Stone moved to the boss room on the 50th floor."

"... then maybe"

"It's likely that the cleaners got the demon stone, but you mean my intuition that I should never take that one, I didn't because I felt lucky to tell you so"

... because in the course of the story I thought a new enemy, or in the worst case, an evil god, would get his hands on it.

I was forced to choose between moving on here or turning back.
