I wonder who I am.

My consciousness became clear when I realized I was trapped somewhere. When I woke up, I was lying on cold ice.

"Ugh... is this...?

My head hurts. Besides, where am I? There's only ice around. And I can see the ice iron lattice in front of me.

"Maybe you're trapped?

The question soon became apparent. Physical sensation time, but probably after about two hours. I'm not trying to get out of here, I'm not trying to exchange.

Helpless I can't get out of here.

And is it like kidnapping? What would it be to kidnap me in the first place...... and that's where the question arises again.

Who am I?

His name is Aria. But I can't remember my family name. The knowledge you know is common sense in this world and your name. Yes, I don't know who I am at the heart of it. I think I was probably from the south...... But I don't know about my parents, and my siblings are unknown. I don't even know my friend.

Where the hell am I... And that gradually becomes fear. Will I just die cold in a place I don't know where?

I don't like that... even though I think so, my body stopped listening. Cold ice seems to pierce your body.

That's when I heard voices coming from nowhere.

It was a pair of men and women who came. They are two beautiful men, beautiful women and very good looking. But it's not like I'm in this place. Why the hell are these two in such an icy world?

"Yeah, that's a trap"

It's a trap.

"Shall we?"

"Ah."

And when they somehow look at me, they try to pass by saying it's a trap.

"Hey!? Just talk! Just talking. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!

I was desperate. If they abandon me here, I'll have to die. I just have to convince these two to live too...... and did it work, I was supposed to get them out of the ice prison.

Introducing herself, the woman was to be called Mr. Fee by the name of Alsfira Medice. He was one of the kingdom's nobles, and that was a name I knew too. Speaking of the Medice family, they're famous for their alchemy. But the man was a much more amazing man.

Elweed Willis. Few people would know that name. Celebrities everyone knows if they are involved in alchemy. Just one Bitstar Blue Stella alchemist in the world. That's him.

I thought it was unlikely at first... but seeing that alchemy skill convinced me. He said he was real. And listening further, it seems this is inside the Fifth Labyrinth. That's pretty much the lower level, too.

I didn't know what that meant. The labyrinth is a substitute for supposedly taboo, and I had no idea I was coming here alone. I mean... someone could have brought me here... that's possible. When I thought of it, my spine broke again.

"Phew!"

"Errr!"

I saw the two hands reached out... and it didn't reach each other. Events on the twentieth floor of the Fifth Labyrinth. That's that I've been separated from Mr. Fee. And I noticed. Elle helped me, but I left Mr. Fee.

I can only apologize if I think so.

They had a solid relationship of trust about what it was. That's not even as a lover, but I definitely figured out that we're close together for a little while.

But I don't know who I am like this. Because of me, I'm separated. Maybe Mr. Fee is dead.

Who am I? For my sake like this, Mr. Elle is acting hard. But I can't reward that.

Hey...... who am I?

"What's up, Aria?

"Ah... no, nothing... it's just a little cold..."

"Be a little more patient with me. Even so, if you go at the same pace, you will reach the lowest level, the fifty... you just said within a week..."

"Have you got eyes on me yet?

"Unless there's something so special. As a trend so far in this labyrinth, first of all, there is nothing so strong about demons. Probably the gimmick of maze and metastasis is the main thing. The problem is avoiding the next metastasis."

"Well... next..."

"Oh, thirty floors."

We kept going even after we left Fee and finally came up to thirty layers ahead. Thirty layers if we open this door, but a metastasis should be noted. If you break up with Aria here, she will definitely die. That's why I held Aria's hand so tightly... I opened the door.

Then it was the golem that was on the tenth floor there. When I'm a little upset, I activate the alchemy.

Antimatter Code: Reverse

Substance Material = Anti-Material Code

Substance Materials: Reverse = Prima Materials, the first material

"... that went well"

I already understand all the components of the Golem. This time, I erased everything at once, including the unique area Personal Fields.

"... as always, that's amazing. I can't believe that giant is a particle in an instant..."

"You've gotten used to it. And once you understand the components, it's easy."

"Ha... at all, the one called Genius is really amazing..."

Talking to Aria like that causes a similar phenomenon. That means the door won't open. This labyrinth is still strange. There is definitely a gimmick that I don't know. My expectations were turning to certainty. Rafe told me about the Third Labyrinth, and the Sixth Labyrinth we broke through. Neither, this could have happened.

In other words, is this a phenomenon specific to the Fifth Labyrinth?

With that in mind, there is a noise of chatter… the door leading to the lower layer opens all by itself.

"... that's still weird"

"What is it?

"Door opens slowly"

"Isn't that opening at a certain time or something?

"No, it was about 10 minutes when I was on the tenth floor, but this time it was about 5 minutes. It's hard to think of delays due to time."

"... but does that make sense to you to think about it? It doesn't seem to me to be an important element."

"So is that...... because it's a different gimmick than the labyrinth has ever been. I want to figure this out for the future."

"Are you going to attack the labyrinth again in the future?

"Right...... maybe it will"

I answered Aria's question frankly. Can we fulfill it and attack all the rest of the labyrinth? I couldn't say for sure I could. Even if we try with a configuration that seems like the best member like this one, the status quo is all falling apart. If this happens, you have a better chance of dying.

I was caught off guard when I attacked the Sixth Labyrinth. He said he could do it unconsciously. And I was overconfident of my own talent. I'm certainly talented. Unusual fitness for alchemy. But make it pointless in front of the labyrinth... it's still sumptuous. I can't help it though the nature of the labyrinth, but it still turns to the back. And I'm breaking up with Rafe, Marie, and Fee. If this happens, my powers won't extend. We've all gone to places we can't reach anymore. It could be dead, but I believe it.

I believe that there is no easy way for all three of us to die...

And I'm sure we can rendezvous. That's why I never stopped walking.

"Aria, let's go"

"Right...... but is it finally thirty-one"

"You've exceeded half."

"Can I, can we go back?

"... we can go back. Besides, I hope Aria's memory returns soon."

"That's... yes, that's right"

And we go down the stairs.
