Mob, if I were a high school student, could I be an adventurer, too, Leah?

Afterwards, while my fellow eaglenose men were watching me, I waited for a call from the operation in a security zone on the 21st floor.

Now we're distancing ourselves from them, building cards to keep watch and taking a break in the tent.

However, I didn't think I had a bad feeling, but I didn't expect to come within that day...

No, the irregular encore that appeared was not necessarily the whistling man.

But I'm glad it wasn't me I ran into...

I'm sorry I ran into someone, but I really think so.

Perhaps everyone in this labyrinth thinks so.

It's no joke to fight a C-rank irregular encore alone.

If I had chosen a sea labyrinth instead of an underground labyrinth, I'd be surprised.

Then about an hour later. Finally, we have received word of the end of the irregular encore crusade.

Apparently, the player who was attacked by the irregular encore - the man with the eagle's nose - is also safe.

I'm glad you're okay for now.

But the man with the eagle's nose is definitely retiring. I don't think I'm strong enough to keep racing when I encounter an irregular count.

and so on.

"Master, they're coming this way."

Yuki, who was standing on guard, told me so.

When he stepped out of the tent, a man with an eagle nose who was intact but badly weary stood by his companions.

The man with the eagle nose, who had seen it for the first time in a few hours, even looked ten years old at a time in the short term.

"Hey, Kitagawa... I'd like to talk to you, but do you mind?

"Yes, of course.... it was a disaster, are you okay?

"Haha... it's hard to say it's okay."

The man with the eagle's nose smiles weakly. The vigorous manner in which we first met seems to be a lie.

"... I want to negotiate"

"Negotiate?"

"Ah... we're retiring. So I want you to buy our stars."

Retire. I know the Eaglenose Man is retiring...

I saw a chirp and a bell deer. No lies, huh?

"You seem to have other people you can count on?

When I asked him that, the man with the eagle nose shook his head.

"Unfortunately, they won't be able to fight.... all their cards focused on me."

Transfer your Master Card and concentrate!

I was astonished at their bold operation.

Sure enough, we can get more power than the winners.

However, it is not normal to come up with such an operation, which could lead to the escape of one's property.

This is an operation that cannot be completed without such a firm relationship of trust. Perhaps they are not ad hoc teams formed for this tournament, but adventurers who usually form teams.

But, I'm sure that trust will last until today...

I looked around at his fellow eaglenose men in agony and thought so, like other HR.

Judging by the look on his face, most of the cards they deposited were lost by irregular accounts.

In other words, they were a lot of haribots.

There's nothing you can't fight at all, but if you were to fight me, you would have been in quite a hurry.

"How many stars and how much do you want to buy?

"There are 182 stars in total. How about 900,000 yen each? Of course, we can also set the information of the next hierarchy."

... about 160 million. I answered with dismay that I couldn't afford to pay like that.

That's impossible.

"Of course, I won't ask you to pay me here. Payment may be made after the race ends. Then you can pay enough, right?

That's certainly possible...

"You've always trusted me after the race."

Even if I deceive them here, it's only the rules of the race.

Negotiations such as buying and selling stars would also be seen as a rush to lift Raise.

Even if I deceive a star with monetary value only after the race, I will not be held guilty of fraud.

That's why athletes only buy and sell stars in exchange for cash and cards.

Asking with such intent, the eaglenose man smiles.

"I trust you. You're a celebrity. We don't have the same creditworthiness."

I see... Chilari and I see cameras flying around us.

Sure, I don't have the same creditworthiness as the other players.

My image in the world is of a 'just man' who caught a serial killer and donated all of his bounty to his family.

Unlike other athletes, you can't wind up a star with fraud, as long as you're shooting the whole thing with your camera eye.

Even if there was no rule problem, the people who watched the broadcast would make my image worse.

It is an act of throwing away the $2 billion you donated to Dob.

Nobody abandons the credit that I bought for $2 billion for $100 million and $60 million.

But....

"What if I can't finish the race?

I asked him if he didn't have to pay at that time.

"Of course, you'll have to pay for it."

Naturally, the man with the eagle nose just said. After all...

"Well then, that's exactly 900,000 won't buy it. You'll be in debt."

"Then how much will you buy me?

"That's right.... 500,000 each."

"That won't be much. If it's half a million yen, you can buy it, right? Then why don't you buy 100 million cents a star for 900,000?

"No, no, 900,000 is too expensive in the first place. I'm sure you'll get the money, but I'm in a big deficit if I don't score. Each star is not worth 900,000. Six hundred thousand at the edge."

"You will now be the head of the winning candidate. If you can't score, who can? We're stuck, too, so I broke my stomach and told him about it. Please help me, 850,000 please."

"Even if I say the winning candidate, it's not necessarily because you've stopped me like this. I'm worried when I think about it... for 700,000."

"No, no, my friends told me. Looks like you were willing to fight normally. They were all terrified of the war. Seriously... the winners don't have the guts! Say. Hey, don't be so naughty... 800,000. This is really the limit. If you can't, I'll find someone else."

Nh... this is the limit. Except for me, if you don't pay me after the race, I'll be able to lower the price even further... even if I'm too busy.

"That's right... if you can stop the most powerful players coming after me"

"Mm...? No, that's impossible. Embarrassed, we don't have much power left."

"Oh, you don't actually have to fight. Threaten me and bluff me like you did to me, and..."

"Hmm, well... then. Then each one of us has to leave a star… 173 stars to pass, but of course you'll calculate it for 182 stars, right?

"Nh, that's right.... then, for 182 stars, $800,000 each... uh, $145 million. Please ignore the fraction."

"I can't help it. They're going to buy it all, so I think you should do that."

So?

"Yes, we have a deal."

The man with the eagle nose and I shook hands so hard that they could be seen in the camera eye.

So he finally showed a smile.

"No, thank you so much... I think I can pay for my friends' cards somewhat."

No, thank you.

"I hope you win. I mean it. Good luck."

The man with the eagle nose said so and left the safety zone to gather the stars of his companions together.

---and then four hours later. I trampled the labyrinth of the sea.

After trampling through the labyrinth of the sea, I left the labyrinth and received a call from the management to the card gear.

It was written that I was the one who first trampled the two labyrinths, and that the last labyrinth was a special type of labyrinth called the Kiyodoku Oniko-jin-do Hall, located more than ten minutes from Mizutahashi Station.

".............................. Shit"

When I saw it, I accidentally slapped my tongue.

I was expecting it, but it's still a special labyrinth in the end.

I knew it would be a waste to teach when I had cleared the two labyrinths... but I wanted them off if possible.

The specialty labyrinth is characterized by the absence of monsters and traps on the road and the presence of only the Lord.

Naturally, that amount of resources is mainly devoted to the Lord of the Specialty Labyrinth, and the Lord of the Specialty Labyrinth appears to be a more two-ranked monster than the Labyrinth rank.

In other words, in the case of a D-ranked labyrinth, the Lord of B rank appears.

Also, the Lord who emerges is not fixed, but monsters who are not good at challenging or even outperform the strengths of the challenger. There will never be a match for us.

Above all, the biggest problem is that the Lord of the Specialty Labyrinth says, "I'm going to copy the acquired skills of this card."

Although it is not known which acquired skills of which cards will be copied, in the worst case scenario, Lotus or Yuki's limit breaks and spiritual regression may also be copied.

If the Lord of the Special Labyrinth gets past his limits and reaches A rank in spiritual regression, I will never win.

The special labyrinth is also known as the "Labyrinth of Trials."

This is because a special labyrinth is a labyrinth where adventurers' own abilities are tested, which cannot be broken by card species compatibility or acquired skill performance alone.

As many adventurers trample through the labyrinth relying solely on the performance of their cards, the special labyrinth releases metamorphic monsters to test them.

To defeat it, the Adventurer himself can only demonstrate enough strength to overcome a slight disadvantage of compatibility.

In addition, only one person can enter the Special Labyrinth until you defeat the Lord, due to the nature of the monster that the opponent changes.

We can't do this alone, but we have to work together! I can't even use this strategy.

Because of this nature, I hear that the special labyrinth has become one of the practical examinations for the four-star promotion.

Anyway, if you're an amateur, if you're going to be a pro, you don't have to rely on the performance of your cards and try to exceed your own strength.

I thought I was going to be a special labyrinth someday, even if I was aiming for four stars.

But....

"Can you win...? With my current strength....."

Unexpectedly, the sound is small and faint.

I knew that most of my power came from cards with special powers called lotus flowers and yuki.

It was painful even at the Adventurer's quarters this time.

I don't have the skills of a master, or the strategic skills of a weave, like Anna... like Anna... uh, yeah, well, Anna doesn't have any strengths as an adventurer like a master or a weave. Elite, I learned the link a little early.

Master says my strength is to "grow cards well"... then I can't break through the special labyrinth.

What if I'm the most four-star promotional exam in the Adventurers section? I was worried.

When I stood up...

Hey ~, I'm just standing there poking.

Yikes!

Something invisible hit me in the back of the head.

Looking back, I remembered being filmed on camera, and I asked Lotus with a link while pretending to be hit by a sudden headache.

What are you doing?

Because you're freaking out, I put in a drink. Thank you. "

"... I'm not scared anymore"

No matter how you look, you're just freaked out. What are you afraid of? Tell this Lotus. "

That's how an invisible sitter pokes me in the cheek.

No, the owner of a special labyrinth copies his acquired skills, right? If you copy the limit breaking and spiritual regression, I'll think it's bad.... "

"Ha, I don't know what to say."

Lotus laughs at my weak voice.

I won't have to struggle if my skill performance and combat power alone determine the match, asshole! If that were the case, you'd already be dead. "

In the words of the lotus, I remembered the battle with the whistling man of Hameln.

Sure, none of my cards back then had any active skills, but I won against a powerful skilled irregular encore.

After that, I looked into Hameln's whistling man and found out about his "true skill", which was a heartbeat.

Lotus turned her arm around my neck and whispered softly so that the camera wouldn't hear her.

"You've been relying too much on your skills lately. Trust the card, not the skills."

"That's right... I'm sorry"

"Oh, and whatever the limits, rest assured, spiritual regression is unlikely to be copied."

Yeah? Really?

That's what I'm talking about, trust me.

Limit breakthroughs may be copied, spiritual regression is not copied...

What is the difference between these two? Is it because spiritual regression requires key items?

In the first place, why is it a skill name called spiritual regression?

If it's just a skill that can be ranked up, it should also be good for spiritual character "sublimation", or you'll be more satisfied.

Return... Return. I mean, is that it? Having a Zero drop skill is originally a higher rank card, so you can temporarily return to your original rank with the Spiritual Return skill.

Therefore, even if you are the owner of a special labyrinth, you cannot copy your spiritual regression skills. Because there is no undo destination.

But... why did the lotus flowers rank down?

Being rocked by a train with that in mind is ten minutes.

I arrived at the last labyrinth.

The Kiyodoku Oniko-jin-do Hall was a small temple that usually existed behind alleys lined with private houses.

My first impression of coming to this temple was something sad.

Only the tall walls and gates built to surround the temple claim that this is not just a temple but a dangerous labyrinth.

A small temple where visitors can no longer visit due to the labyrinth and the faithful have forgotten their existence. That was the Kiyodoku Oniko-jinja Hall.

But that's until we get inside.

When I stepped in one step, it was a vast and twisted crazy space that I could not imagine from the outside.

Beyond the countless branches from the entrance, there are still countless main halls, and idols are rampant.

It's the same as the Tokyo Dome Dungeon. As it takes up the original structure, it multiplies dozens and hundreds of times, expanding the space.

There, too, the appearance is normal, but as you step in, there are many branches in the aisle, and there are dozens of stadiums ahead - now refurbished in the arena style - each of which is played daily.

For the first time, some people are surprised and uncomfortable in a distorted space, but if they get used to it, there is no problem.

"... I'm not here."

Beyond the countless branches of the road, there is a presence that emits a sense of intimidation that even I, a human, can understand.

I noticed that I remembered the intimidation, and I frowned.

Did you get a bad feeling about this?

The Special Labyrinth is coming out of our disgusting monsters, so that's what I expected...

I got a little lost with Lotus, Eliza, Yuki, Meir, Suzuka, and I decided to call Durahan.

Durahan's Doji is scared, but I want to raise his strength a little here.

And...

Lotus, mea, spiritual regression.

I don't spare any time. I'll do my best from the beginning.

I've been waiting!

And Mea floats with joy and returns to the Ririm.

On brown skin, some sensual geometry runs on a pink line, the horns of the goats are black and glossy, and the wings of the back are larger.

Along with that, Lotus returned to the auspicious heaven. The flowers of lotus flowers blossomed from under her feet, and her limbs stretched slightly, turning her into a goddess of beauty who wore heavenly feathers.

Eliza, I need you to cast a level-up spell on both of us.

"Jesus, Master."

The Magic of Level Up is a magic that temporarily increases the combat power of cards that have not yet grown to the limit of growth. You won't be able to gain experience from combat, but you can use the cards you just acquired as instant combat power.

With the magic of this level up, Spiritual Regeneration will be able to unleash the true combat power of that species.

Mary looks like she's falling in comparison to Lotus, but she has an Infinite Summon Family Summon. In a long battle, its total power will be no less than that of Lotus, who has exceeded her limits.

Not only Lotus and Mare, but also Eliza, Yuki, Suzuka, and Durahan.

If we lose now, it was simply a lack of strength. The winner will be passed on to the other players, and I will refine the adventurer's abilities.

The journey proceeds with a refreshing feeling that resembles both giving up and being convinced.

The unpleasant feeling of the smell of flower gradually turns into conviction.

Eventually I saw the Lord of this labyrinth standing in front of the main hall.

A gorgeous woman in heavenly feathers standing on a blooming lotus flower.

----The Lord of the Labyrinth was, as expected, auspicious.
