99 The Price Of Alarm
- I wondered how this happened.
What does Sylvia think as she repeatedly breathes rough and hears her own heart continue to pulse as hard as it breaks...... but shortly afterwards, she smiles mocking herself.
That was decided.
It's just, you deserve it.
Do not inadvertently touch anything there in the labyrinth.
That's the basics in it.
Because it looks like nothing at first sight, and it is actually a trap or a demon.
I guess I touched that one while I knew it was out of alarm in the end.
Caused by alarm, he loses his life in the labyrinth.
It was also something I touched.
Because it was a third tier.
Because I could easily defeat the demon.
I won't do it for any reason.
Rather, it's something to blame.
Even though it is a third tier, if we took it for ourselves, it was an unknown place.
We should be most vigilant, and there was no reason not to.
How about it because it made it easy to defeat the demon?
I owe that to my people, and that's no reason not to be wary of traps in the first place.
At the end of the day, it went too well and I was overconfident.
If I thought I had gained confidence, I was actually just overconfident.
It's not even funny at all.
"... I really can't do eagles"
You want to do something for this country, you want to do something for the people who called you family, study magic, come to Royal College.
But when I came, I tried to come, and there were people who were far more amazing than me and would help.
Really, I...
"What for?!?
Moments, I accidentally stop talking to myself that was leaking, killing my breath, and shrinking myself.
Because I felt the sound of a memory.
Or were you lurking your breath in a place like this in the first place to hide yourself from an array?
What an idiot, such as forgetting something too important to reflect on.
But I couldn't even afford to be cursing myself like that anymore.
Because I felt the sound of something bigger than ever before, right from the side.
"... eh"
I desperately suppress the body that is about to tremble and just pray for a voice that is about to leak reflectively.
May you be gone.
May they not notice.
From the bottom of my heart as incomparable as my usual prayers and such.
I don't want to die.
God, please help me, I prayed.
Whether it arrived at all, the ground sounds a little smaller and farther away… seems far enough away, then exhales deeply and long.
Strength fell out of his tense body, and at the same time cold sweat overflowed his entire body.
Then, when you face out of there hiding for just a moment, you catch the aftermath of it going somewhere, and you rush back to your face.
This is the second time I've seen that.
Besides, we both saw it from afar, just a little bit... but that was enough to figure out what that identity was.
Definitely area boss or equivalent demon.
It's also like being killed the moment you meet your enemies yourself, that kind of opponent.
Well, I mean, it was something I knew, but I apparently got bounced down quite a bit.
I realized that Sylvia had come to this hierarchy, probably shortly after she jumped here.
When my vision recovered from the darkness, it was a sight very much the same as it had been just before... but I was the only one there.
Then it could easily be determined that they had really been forced to transfer the space, but there was no further movement there because it was no longer there immediately after that.
I felt the same sound as it did now.
So I think I did a good job of jumping into something like a side road that was in the near field in a hurry.
It went as far back as it was critical, killing his breath… it passed the edge of his gaze, which was shrinking and laying low.
The total length is probably, like, ten meters.
It was human, but certainly not biological.
For its whole body was made of dull, shining metallic matter.
Golem.
That, too, is based on metal.
I found that if I fought instantly, I would die halfway between the instinctive and the intelligent.
The golem changes its properties into various things depending on the original material, but the worst of them are metal-based ones.
They even gain the nasty nature of being physically and magically resistant.
Besides, as you can see, it's huge.
You won't even have to think about what happens if that much mass of metal is used for an attack.
It's just the other way around. Big, but therefore, the movement also seemed dull, but in terms of it, the instinct denied it.
That's probably just a slow walk, and if it's a fight, it moves much faster than it does itself, he said.
- All-powerful talented intermediate (appraisal intermediate/false): nursing.
So let it pass... but I didn't keep hiding there because somehow I felt bad if I did it.
For an unknown reason, that's not good enough.
- Versatile Talent Intermediate (Thousand Eyes, Future Vision, False): Worm News.
That was because it was a state of extremes, and I may have been doing something unconsciously, but all that matters is that I felt like an obsessive notion that I had to move.
For that reason, where it was far enough away, it gently escaped from it, and what it tried to do first is, naturally, escape from its hierarchy.
Maybe you should hide somewhere, but there's no guarantee that help will come, and even if it does, it's over if you find it in that one before then.
Then he tried to escape first.
But I soon realized it was impossible.
It's not like I couldn't find an exit for an escape.
It must be connected to the upper level. The stairs could be found relatively quickly.
For some reason, however, it was not possible to proceed there.
It was as if they were barred from entering and isolating the space ahead of them, a space with nothing was a wall.
And then even Sylvia will understand.
I was locked in here, he said.
There's probably one way out.
It's about defeating that demon.
But there's no way I can do that, and let's just say I changed the operation in an attempt to still wait for help.
In the meantime, I needed a place to hide, so I looked for it with the utmost vigilance around me... along the way, I realized.
There is no such thing as a demon.
Apart from the earlier golem, of course.
Maybe this is because you think you can have hope... maybe that's what you think.
I managed to find a place where I might be able to hide and hide there...... I forgot the situation and started thinking about myself etc.
Or maybe there is, because I was free, without being able to do anything, but that's not even an excuse.
... well, anyway, they never managed to notice.
At this rate, I can manage...
"Huh?"
- All-powerful talented intermediate (sign perception intermediate/false): Surprise perception.
At the moment, Sylvia's body was moving before she could think of anything.
He instinctively understood that he would die on the spot if he thought of something extra.
Though.
Whether or not we can do something about it is another story.
"-Ah... Huh?
I didn't know what happened.
I didn't know what was happening to me.
Why is pain coming from all over your body and why is your body being slapped against the wall of the labyrinth?
I didn't know one reason for that.
All I know is two things.
The only thing is that I was missing where I was hiding... and that I was reflected in my reflectively lifted vision that emitted a dull color.
"Lie...... what, so?
Forget all about physical pain and all that, only a grunt leaks.
There is only one fact that the status quo shows.
It was a mistake to think she'd turned back unnoticed, and she'd finally noticed.
How did they notice?
Why did you act like you were turning back?
I don't know.
I don't know.
"……… Ah"
The only thing that was imminent right there was my death, I clearly knew.
Is it because you recognised that?
Moments, various things pass behind my brain.
About my mother.
About my father.
About my mother-in-law.
I mean brothers and sisters with only half the blood connected.
About this country.
That I had complex thoughts about them.
... No, the truth is that I still hold it.
About the college.
Magic thing.
About the teachers.
About a friend.
There was really something else I wanted to do.
The truth is... at the bottom of my heart, I don't think much about this country.
That was just a means.
I wanted everyone to smile.
I wanted to smile with everyone.
That's all I wanted.
That's all I needed.
But that's where I realized.
He said that some of them included everyone in the college at some point.
Maria was the only friend I had, more if I noticed.
So... I just thought.
Oh, you worried me, he said.
I don't think I can apologize anymore.
And... I was wondering if you would all be sad.
You understood the current situation, but you didn't even think about breaking the shard, because you knew it was impossible?
What was on my mind was just giving up, and even though I thought about a lot of things, that just didn't change.
So if you include all sorts of things… really all sorts of things, even things that don't go up in consciousness, you think and think immense things in an instant.
The last thing Sylvia thought of in that was something terribly unselfish.
"Oh my... eagle, you're going to die here.... I don't like it."
Potatoes and that's the only thing that falls out of my mouth.
"-Ma, I won't die for now, so I hope you feel safe."
Shortly afterwards, the death that was supposed to have been imminent was shattered and scattered.
