Kuro no Maou

"... what shall we do"

"Ur, Master Chrono has a very anxious look on his face, Death"

"This battle against boulders is going to be as tough as that. Now we should just relax."

Leki and Ursula walking forward talking hisso, looking at me in a chill that obviously doesn't look good.

In the end, I couldn't tell Emilia "because it's a mistake".

I know I should say it. He said yesterday that the words I spoke in that live venue were not a no to a proposal to Emilia, but just a comforting dialogue. I'm meant to be friends with you, no romantic feelings whatsoever, there's no such thing as rushing off... etc. I couldn't have seen that face and said it.

I can't be mistaken or joked. It was unintentional, but he even kissed me enthusiastically, and I can't pull in anymore.

"No, wait, no, calm down, you can't stay like this"

But that's why it's too late to turn your heels back now and go tell Emilia the truth.

Saliel's "Element Master" has already entered the Great Labyrinth, and Sylverians and other adventurers have begun a considerable number of attacks.

We'll be in the late category. Any further delays are going to be tough.

"... we'll do it when we get back"

I'll confess to Emilia when this battle is over.

I apologize for making you make a weird mistake, and confess your sins.

I don't know what to do, I don't want to go back anymore. I guess I'll pull into the first tier again. Emilia, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry... I wish I hadn't had to console you weirdly cool...

"Master Chrono, I've got it."

"Maybe here's Death, Death that smells like metastasis!

This time, the location where we enter the Great Labyrinth is not the transfer facility we usually use.

In a regular, user-friendly transfer facility, they say various forces have already gotten involved and displayed a look at the turmoil.

Forces such as the Xanadu treasury and the three major gangs are occupying the transfer facilities in their territory to keep others from entering. Put in the adventurers at your place first, and tighten up the ones that come later, and you'll only reduce your rivals for that. It would be a half-natured obstruction.

But since it all of a sudden started with estate delivery, nowhere is it fully prepared. Those who want to protect the metastasis and those who are blind to greed and push us to the metastasis first. Both sides are bumping into each other, and disputes are taking place everywhere in the transfer facility.

Even as I walked this far, I could hear the sound of battle, yelling and screaming, flashy explosions, etc.

I don't really feel like sticking my neck in such a brawl.

So this time it was decided to use a secret transfer magic formation, unknown to the average adventurer.

"'Return to Ashes (Ashes to Ashes)', right? Master Oren has given us permission to cross. Keep moving."

What we've come to is a liquor store that's likely to be anywhere, and it's a brewery that's set up there.

When Zao's door opens, a dubious man in a robe with a hood at the depth of his eyes, similar to mine, will guide him quickly.

Inside the vault, there was an entrance that felt like a hidden staircase, and a little down, he went out into the glowing hall where the transferring magic formation to enter the Great Labyrinth, which he had already become accustomed to seeing.

This is one of the secret transfer facilities hidden by the Polar Wolf Society.

Well, pretty much every one of them has a place like this hidden. Speaking of which, Golden Dawn is surrounded by a dedicated transfer magic team.

Oren has instructed me to use this place to enter the Great Labyrinth.

We're not with Oren. Led by Oren, multiple parties formed with selected members of the Polar Wolf Society are destined for Xanadu's legacy.

We "Ash to Ash" will only be positioned as their support.

If Oren and the others go on a different route from the fateful partying, obstructing other forces on the road, etc., that would be good, they say. They say we have more than one other support party like that.

If the attack ever meets with a fatalistic combination as it progresses, it is supposed to put them ahead or respond to requests for cooperation.

Well, you're not going to leave your back to me to race a generation of offenses, no matter how much Oren, outsiders, even if they were only new to the group.

After we use this secret transfer to enter the Great Labyrinth with that kind of wax, we will proceed with the offense as we please.

"Ready? We can't go back."

"Hear, wee, goo!"

"It's okay, I haven't forgotten anything."

I didn't seem to notice, I took the two of them as usual, and I dived into the light of the metastasis.

The way through the transfer was on the top floor of the tall building.

Will there be about fifteenth floor? Peek outside through a glazed window for a view of the surrounding area.

"This... sounds awful."

I look out the window and crush it unintentionally.

The most familiar first tier of the Great Labyrinth, the Abandoned City (Undead City), was to be outrageous.

"It's full of zombies."

"So Yippee Where were you, Death!?

As far as I can see from here, there are hundreds, thousands, no, tens of thousands of zombies hissing on the wide street if you suck.

In this first tier, zombies are urchined anytime, anywhere, and dozens of zombies were constantly hovering on promising big streets, squares, etc. In fact, I guess the zombies here are starting to emerge inexhaustibly by the Great Labyrinth... I've never seen them become so large.

"Well, there's a lot of people here in the heritage race, so there's been a runoff."

You can't completely occupy the first tier, which is overflowing with infinite resources, because if you put in a large army, the zombies will explode and attack you accordingly. It seems to be a dungeon-specific phenomenon, commonly referred to as runoff (stampede), etc.

If I think the Great Labyrinth is still a living ancient site of function, I think the rampage is caused by defensive features to protect the facility, or by the consequences of bugging it.

"It's impossible for a boulder to break through."

It's ridiculous to work directly from the front with a legion of 10,000 units of zombies filling the road. No matter how many of your opponents are the weakest rank 1 monster zombies, the earliest you can gather is a mass weapon.

In the view looking down through the window, you can see scenes of a bunch of zombies being swallowed up abruptly, as well as scenes of evacuation to the rooftops, but suddenly devastated by thousands of climbers climbing. Hell of a world, or a sight I just think the world is over.

"Everywhere is a zombie."

"It's just hard to move on"

"No, it's not even a wack with no gaps. Look closely, the large crowd is almost solidified"

Their numbers are tremendous, but not all roads and buildings are filled with zombies without gaps. And because we can look down from this height, we can also see their distribution well.

The zombies, which are turning into tens of thousands of large groups, are moving while maintaining a large chunk rather than each scattered in pieces. Since not all zombies have made a dominant move, it seems that the detached zombies are out in hundreds of units, but equally so are the zombies that merge.

In other words, the large group will be moving around the city as a group, while maintaining almost that number.

If I don't even make out with a large group, the rest feels like more zombie density than I usually do.

"It's important to note that you have a large climber base."

There are also types of zombies, such as running zombie runners, climbers who can climb buildings, blunt but big body and powerful hammers. From what I've seen, it seems to be turning into a large group for each of those types.

It's easy to dodge a bunch of normal zombies if they just stroll down the road with Noronoro, but it's troublesome that they can travel regardless of the terrain, like climbers.

The ground with the road is hardened for runners to the normal zombies and hammers to stop traffic in some places, so it's out of the question to go here.

As usual, we should move to building legends. Climbers will be the only ones likely to get tangled along the way.

"Avoid the masses as I foment them in Exploring the Black Wind (Windsearcher). Ursula takes it because it will be the parcool as usual"

"Thank you, Master Chrono. Let me make it sweet here. Leave the navigation to me."

"Where will the likely closest point of descent be from here?

"This neighborhood is close to the center, so it's a place I haven't really come to. But according to the map, around here..."

Peek into Ursula and the map to see your current location and destination.

Naturally, the boss room is through, as the battle is how to get to the bottom level quickly this time. As it is, choose a point where you can descend to the next hierarchy.

As Ursula put it, it does seem that this neighborhood is close to the centre of increased danger, even in the first tier. The kids don't come here because it's dangerous around here either, so I rarely come here, and I don't have a lot of land prospects.

"It's a race to rush ahead, but it's dangerous to go ahead with a runaway dungeon. Let's start with caution and aim for a first tier breakthrough. If you get caught up in a huge crowd, you're gonna get away with it."

"Aurai!

Copy that.

"All right, let's go"

By the time Chrono was receiving the call and meeting with Oren, Lily and the others, the Element Master, had already begun their attack on the Great Labyrinth.

Unfortunately, there were no transfer magic formations in Joseph's mansion to enter the Great Labyrinth. A few years ago, the secret transfer facility I held was sold off because of financial difficulties.

I had no choice but to go for the nearest entrance on foot.

"After all, people have already arrived at the transfer facility."

A transfer facility in the Anglo-South area, which is usually idle, but there had already been a riot battle to wash blood with blood.

Not only are there adventurers working in Anglo-South from the beginning, but also adventurers who seem to have come from other districts that would be more available here, or even chimps and ordinary people who are not adventurers.

"I don't like the noise."

"Dear Lily, I can't afford to find an empty place"

"That's right, Mr. Lily. If you're an adventurer, it's a rare occurrence."

Says Fiona, who has the longest experience as a plain adventurer.

Situations like this inheritance race are not wacky that are not other dungeons either. It is not so uncommon for these adventurers to find themselves in a state of competition with each other, such as when a lord ruling the land makes a particularly fruitful quest, such as crusading the boss of a dungeon, bringing home certain materials, etc.

It should also be said that the dungeon is activated, there are more treasures and items that can be taken inside, and there can be special periods of time, such as the appearance of a number of rare monsters. Even then, it becomes a competition.

And Fiona has challenged such a dungeon of a competitive state several times in the past. Alone, of course.

"So what do you do when that happens?

"Competitors can only kick ass -" Flaming Cannon (Ignis Blast) ""

The bursting Red Lotus runoff is released from "Walpurgis".

Suddenly and extensively blowing flame radiation leaves the adventurers, who were in the middle of a serious battle with their weapons in their hands, rushing back to scatter the spider child. Literally, because my ass is on fire.

After a fierce flame licked around the transfer facility, not a single one remained there.

"Fiona."

"Yes."

"Surprised, I can't believe you could shoot with so little power"

"Wonderful growth, Dear Fiona"

"You can light it up, when you're honestly praised"

And so on, in a soothing conversation, the three proceeded slowly to the Transition Magic Formation as their voices sounded suffering from severe burns.

And the destination where I dived the metastasis was hell.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!

"Don't come, don't come, come ahhhhhh!!

"Damn, too many!?

"Damn, you're in a runaway state! There's too many of them in there. This is such an offense!

Unparalleled intense battles, such as the brawls that were taking place at the transfer facility, were winding up early on in the transfer.

A large group of zombies filling the road.

Adventurers to be swallowed up before an overwhelming number.

It's not just here, there seems to be an intense battle going on there, and all I hear from all directions is anger and screaming.

"Looks like it's been busy."

"Because a huge legacy is the reward. Of course it's going to be so exciting."

Lily and the others move on, gathered together by zombies, with adventurers on their asses eating through their guts and giving them a severance. Keep straight, hard paved gray roads.

"Hey, jerk off, there's a whole bunch coming this way!

"Not here anymore, let's get out of here!

"Where are you running away from!?

"Hey, wait! Please don't leave me. Yeah, yeah!!

From across the big street, I saw a large army of zombies approaching with a loud chorus of roars.

If they come, the area will be filled with zombies.

Those nearby flee with us. That's enough to leave one of us still surrounded by zombies and unable to escape.

As such, after so little, no one was around.

Those who were left behind also seem to have been suddenly eaten by zombies, desperate to see their companions escape.

With tens of thousands of zombies looming, only three Lillies will go in the middle of the road.

"Just a little bit more, please."

"It's a corner, and do you even connect your hands?

"That might be good, too. Sariel, is the road this way?

"700 meters straight down this street, we can reach the boss room"

"That's easy to understand. Then let's go straight ahead - 'Fairy Connections (Oracle Field)' Expand"

When Little Lily is twice, three times, violently and brightly extinguished, The Fairy Sect (Oracle Field) unfolds on a wider scale than usual.

Centered around Lily, about five meters radius.

Fiona, who joins hands with Lily as young as a guardian, and Saliel, who quietly follows behind, are firmly within bounds.

When the dome-shaped junction of light surrounding the three was completed, a large group of zombies finally approached the present.

The distance is less than 50 meters. The groan of loss of reason sounds louder in his ear, and a slight odor is likely to drift from his rotting flesh.

Just driven by an instinct to devour the living, tens of thousands of zombies opened their hungry agate to three grand girls standing in front of them - stopping.

"Uhh... aah... aah"

"Haaaa...... ah"

"A"

"A"

The zombies stop and go one after the other with the glowing Lily in front of them. Oh, as I noticed something. As I suspected.

The zombies who count 10,000 stop on the spot beautifully. He lurks a roar as if to kill his breath, and his footsteps stop.

Strange silence surrounds the area.

And the sole is broken by the step Lily took.

"Haaaaaaaa!"

"Yaaaaaaaaaa!"

"Iaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!

In contrast to moving Lily, the zombies turn their heels back and flee as they raise their golden voices.

A rotten body that can't stand a full-blown disease. But still, zombies run at speeds like early walks trying to get out of there as soon as possible.

Its speed is inherently the urge of famine that is exerted only when prey appears in front of you, but not all this time.

Strike upon the living, and eat their flesh. Too famous zombie instincts, but they have another, equipped instinct.

It is to avoid the holy light.

Physical pain does not exist in them at the earliest. However, it is vulnerable to light attributes as the nature of the undead monster, which is moved by the magic of filthy darkness.

In other words, the power of a strong light attribute for zombies becomes enough to make them choose to escape as a pain that also beats hunger.

It is no exaggeration to call it a light magic monster, before the fairy Lily, it was a natural consequence of the zombies fleeing every large group as undead.

"When a good attribute is the weakness of the opponent, you can chin easily"

"Well, I hope this is always the case"

For Lily, this' Ruined City (Undead City) 'is also an easier bonus stage than Fairy Forest (Fairy Garden).

A little, I just give you the output of the fairy junction, and the opponent guesses at will and gets away with it. Wild goblins would be more dangerous than just getting attacked.

Adventurers who escaped a large group of zombies in front, but now zombies are better off running. Sadly, the zombie, whose body of a large number of his companions interrupted him and could not proceed as he wished, is caught up by a walking lily, whose body touches the junction of light and disappears.

The zombie disappears into a bright white ash as he raises the scream of Arakiri, his crushing throat, savoring the pain worse than any he has ever experienced in his lifetime.

Every time Lily went one step further, the zombies caught in the junction went in unison and in unison, disappearing to be shredded.

……

While the screams of the zombies echoed, Lily was not even oriented towards them as they vanished, but quietly pulled out the 'Meteor Striker'.

"What's up, Mr. Lily? There doesn't seem to be an undead as powerful as shooting on purpose."

"They're watching."

"Huh."

"You don't like being a spectacle."

"It wasn't Mr. Lily who idolized him."

"There's no such thing as untrained because it's just a means to crush Emilia. We could have experimented with manipulating the masses, and it was meaningful."

With that said, Lily pointed a silver gun in her small right hand towards a void with nothing - firing.

"Chrono gets the keys, if only we could show them off at the last moment. I'm sorry to snoop into the middle of an attack."
