Manuke FPS Chapter 212

Published at 8th of May 2023 04:13:29 PM

For a short while, I was able to come into contact with the villain who dropped me into this world――an ancient evil goddess

I don’t know if the purpose of the crazy god is to ruin the world as it says, but I’m not going to be her spearhead. Rather, I’ll crush, destroy, and eradicate the labyrinth.

Let’s talk about this tunnel. I walked through the throne room and the narrow passage leading to the pedestal room. In Wolf Labyrinth, there was a hidden room that seemed to be a residential area, but there was no such thing on the map this time. I guess the lambton worm was just different. 

After all, the master of the labyrinth might just be a powerful monster in most cases

Although I just crossed one door, the map only shows the space between the straight passage and the pedestal. The layout hadn’t changed, but this space is probably a different place from the throne room.

The core room was visible now. At the same time, I could see the one dungeon core, about the size of a marquise-cut rugby ball, floating in the air, sandwiched from above and below by the roots of a jet-black tree――or something like a tentacle. While the jet-black tentacles sucked in the brightly colored light, it illuminated the core room with overflowing brilliance.

However, the scene was beautiful――it was terrifying.

When I grabbed the floating large magic stone, the dazzling light became even stronger, but the shading function would automatically activate. It’s the same as when Wolf Labyrinth was conquered. The dark-colored vortex floating at the tip of the jet-black tentacles provided a slight resistance to keep the labyrinth core stay put.

While watching the brilliance subsided, I tore off the labyrinth core from its pedestal――at the same time, the entire labyrinth trembled, and a roar echoed out of nowhere.

This makes it the third one. Green demon, wolf, and this mine labyrinth.

While watching the brilliance of the Great Magic Stone, I turned back to the throne room. For the next month, this mine labyrinth will slowly die. There will be no harvest festival, but some of the sky magic stones and mineral resources will be recovered by the inhabitants of Jormu and the Dragrange’s Frontier Knights.

The profits obtained from this labyrinth and the veins of magic ore that will be born after that. It will be the financial source of Jormu in the future and will be necessary to enter the patronage of Kurtmerga Kingdom. My interests are this great magic stone and the transfer magic circle. In order to recover it without fail, it will be necessary to create a labyrinth map.

Originally, this request secretly escorts Ophelia and reports the trend to the Chancellor. At the same time, it was to subdue the labyrinth that rested in the Devil’s Mountains. The reward for the success was one set of transfer magic circles, and one more set if the labyrinth subjugation was achieved, for a total of two sets of transfer magic circles and magic circle copies.

As a result of various thoughts――now in the form of Yona, this great magic stone will be a sure sign of subduing the labyrinth. This makes a total of four sets of transfer magic circles and copy magic circles. The range of my actions will be further expanded and the degree of freedom will be dramatically improved.

My cheeks loosened involuntarily at the thought of such a bright future――although I was quickly reminded that what I have now is a skeleton face, so it was expressionless.

I pushed open the door leading to the guardian room――in that instance, I was greeted by twelve dots on my radar. Standing before me was Ophelia, adventurers belonging to the Sazanka clan, and several Dragrange Frontier Knights. 

“I found you, Jonah!”

Ophelia brandished her hoarfrost-laced rapier at me.

“Isn’t that the labyrinth core in your hand? I didn’t expect the undead to subdue the labyrinth――at this rate, I can’t let you do as you like anymore!”

No way, I didn’t think that it would be a result that I could see each other again here. However, two weeks have passed since I started subduing the labyrinth of the mine. I may have taken too long. When I had a meeting with Chancellor Bergman in the royal capital to make time to subdue the labyrinth, Ophelia was instructed to follow Jonah and prioritize the investigation in the Devil’s Mountains.

However, after spending a few days investigating, she probably decided that Jonah’s hiding place was a labyrinth and came down here. There must have been white light grass on the path I passed so far to secure the light and prevent myself from getting lost――probably the shortest distance down to this point.

She wasn’t completely ignorant of the possibility of fighting them again. Because I was thinking about it, I was acting in the form of “Jonah” instead of “Black Mask Shaft” to subdue the labyrinth.

In front of Chancellor Bergman, I made up a clan called Spark and said that Shaft, a member of it, was coming to this demon mountain range.

However, it was Schwartz who entered and exited the forest city of Dragrange and met Ultimirsan, and it was Jonah who destroyed the Drum Fortress and made a deal with Koti and others. In addition to that, the Black Mask Shaft was also temporarily mobilized. I don’t want to increase the fact that these three were in the same place even temporarily.

It is still good to be known by Chancellor Bergman, who knows that I am a Manuke ――a Trespasser. It’s well known at a recent meeting that he isn’t willing to disclose my information more than necessary.

However, not everyone is aware of this. From the labyrinth map drawn slightly as Schwartz, I had to confess that I was the rumored “Schwartz the map maker”. It’s not strange to hear rumors that three people are actually the same person.

That’s why I was moving in the form of Jonah just in case… Everything just seems to fall apart now.

“We meet again, you people… I have conquered this labyrinth on your behalf. Shouldn’t you be grateful to me?”

“… Thank you for the extra care. I will return this grace by defeating you.”

The knights who deployed around me pulled out their weapons one after another. At the back――I  can see four Sazanka members standing to protect the labyrinth gate that leads to the passage connecting the throne room and the gatekeeper room. 

The battle is unlikely to be avoided……. But, I can’t kill anyone――obviously.

I hid the large magic stone in the fur cloak and stored it inside the gift box in the inventory so that it cannot be seen from the surroundings.

Since I can now summon any weapon I want from my inventory, using the supply BOX was no longer necessary.I can pull what I want from my inventory at any time, and conversely, I can stash what I want in my inventory anytime I want. Instead, I had a large sledgehammer in my hand. The members of Sazanka are watching――best I refrain from using any firearms.
