- The 33rd basement of the Imperial Labyrinth.

The state of the 37th basement floor that was showing me in labyrinth tune.

The original plan was to see how much time could be spent by submerging the entire hierarchy.

The 37th basement floor was a hierarchy built as a resort, built to allow water levels to change freely in some circumstances. I'm not consuming so much magic to submerge it completely because of that.

But something unexpected happened as I watched how things were going.

I succeeded in getting him lost once, but the magic tools that Rio took out made the exit location known.

I didn't know just from seeing that the magic tool was a 'compass of heaven', but thanks to what the labyrinth nucleus taught me, I found it to be a 'compass of heaven'.

It's the magic tool I've been looking for since I tried the basement on the 77th floor.

"Now I know it was all a mystery."

"The inexplicable?

Teach Ira to run next door as she magically shoots down the eagle demons that were about to fly into the sky and get closer to us.

As for Melissa and Iris, they were both questionable from the beginning, just like me. The use of "Heavenly Compass" had solved the question. So Ira's the only one who needs an explanation.

"You said Rio and the others worked together to hold you responsible for the defeat of the war."

"What's wrong with that? It doesn't seem particularly funny."

There's nothing funny about it.

It seems more muscular than that.

Cooperate not to stand out in the war and push all the blame on the former Crown Prince and nobility who oppose his emperor's inauguration when he returns defeated.

But this story starts on the way.

Prerequisites are missing.

"In the first place, it's a plan that can't be achieved without someone who can defeat the Imperial Army."

"Ah!"

They finally noticed Ira, too.

The Royal Army's rescue has not been forthcoming because it was an ambush in a state of complete surprise. In the first place, the army is sometimes numbered and powerful. Sometimes it is slow to start, and it is not suitable for reinforcements to surprise attacks.

The Imperial Army needed to do a lot of damage after attacking the kingdom in order to pursue responsibility for the defeat.

Ideally, most of the Imperial Army would be repelled with Krashel, whose damage to the kingdom would be minimized.

I'm moving on the assumption that there are people who can do that.

"But we must have become quite famous because we defeated Silverfang before that."

Though I'm happy with that assessment, I'm about to exhale unexpectedly.

"" Huh. ""

Oh, Melissa and Illis really got sighed out.

"Hey, what's up?"

"Silver fangs, indeed, were powerful demons, but silver fangs are famous for their limitations around the periphery"

"It was a recognition of Krashel to the extent that he 'defeated a famous demon'. I was curious to gather information because I knew about Mars and the others, and I realized for the first time that even S-rank adventurers couldn't get their hands on a level of demons."

Most of the information will also be accepted as a joke.

We weren't even A-ranked adventurers at the time. Yet there is no way that S-rank adventurers can crusade unrivaled demons.

Hazards are not correctly recognized.

"That recognition in a city near the border. And yet you seriously recognize that your neighbor is strong enough to destroy your own army?

The answer is no.

I'm sure Rio recognized it, but the other war proponents who heard the information didn't even suspect their victory without remembering me or anything else in the corner of their head.

"In this situation, Rio really thought we were going to destroy his own army."

Did you seriously believe the rumors?

"There are two possibilities I thought about while I was listening."

One was that Rio was so fond of all the threats of silver fangs.

I decided that this was unlikely within what I was talking about. I don't think people who are about to be emperors will be oblivious to information and optimistically judge the elements that separate the success or failure of their plans.

"So the second possibility. Somehow we knew exactly how threatened we were, and we were able to incorporate into our plans a pre-destructive presence."

If I were to say more, it was also known where it was based.

It was also important to be in a place where we could rush to Krashel for help.

"Until now, I thought you had a buddy who was good at gathering information, and he was fully aware of our threats."

In fact, on the first day of the competition, they were pushed out to gather strategic information on the labyrinth.

Offensive information is valuable to adventurers who are making money diving into the labyrinth. Moreover, it can be assumed that information has been obtained from the state of the previous offense to the thirtieth basement. I don't think an adventurer with that much offensive information would easily turn over the information. But in just one day, we're gathering the information we need to attack.

There is definitely a good information-gathering officer.

However, it is suspicious that they were actually gathering information.

"They used magic tools specializing in finding things."

They must have found us on the condition that they could defeat the Imperial Army in small numbers.

Besides, it also leads to this competition.

"Those guys are labyrinth associates. This time, I think I've got something I want and I've challenged us to compete in the form of competition, but if I really want something, I can create it with my own labyrinth."

The inability to do so cannot be created in one's own labyrinth.

"I found someone with what I wanted, or where I was, just as I found the existence that could destroy the army."

As a result, I was able to find Alistair's city or the labyrinth.

Alistair is well known in neighboring countries as a bustling city thanks to a labyrinth nearby despite the border. If what you're looking for is so valuable, it's easy to predict that the labyrinth has something to do with the location.

The fact that we even know the true qualities we want to hide is solved by our possession of the Compass of Heaven.

"But what do you do?

"Right..."

- Guru!

I hear a squeal from above.

If you turn your gaze upwards, there was a lion in the lower body and an eagle demon in the upper body called Reaper in the Great Sky, etc. about 300 meters away - Griffon.

"They've been annoying me since just now."

The demon came together with Walla Walla, but he was knocking it down before he approached.

That also means you can't even be opponent at the level of demons that you can prepare in the wilderness field, and you can defeat them before they get close because you don't need to be alert to ambushes because they will be found in no time.

Spaces with nothing to mark can easily be lost, but at the same time they have eliminated the choice of ambush because of nothing to hide. Looks like he's rushing to collect demons because he's clearly making his way through the exit.

Most importantly, if a vicious demon appeared, such as Griffon, the only option existed: to escape or to give up.

"Jump"

This space, which has nothing to lose sight of, has been hit by a surprise attack for us.

The magical leap of the labyrinth can be transferred anywhere within sight in an instant. The destination will be 300 meters away, but you can jump on the back of a griffon flying in the sky.

- Guru!?

I'm suddenly turning my back in surprise at my increased weight, but by then Griffon's neck has already fallen to the ground.

Because of this, collect the griffon to the toolbox.

"Are you all right?

"You know there's no problem with a demon like this."

"Yes, but suddenly it bothers me if I pop up"

This one was frustrated that the explanation was blocked on the way because Griffon rang.

"That was my question earlier, but I'm not going to do anything about it. Whether our identity is known or not, it doesn't really matter to the competition. It just makes it harder to let each other get lost from here on out."

We're Melissa's [Magic Detection].

Rio and the others have a 'compass of heaven'.

There's not much point in letting each other get lost when we figure out the exit.

"So what are we going to do with the retrofit on the 47th basement floor?

As for the Illis, who was in charge of the remodeling, I wanted to take a good look at the 47th basement.

"Let it continue that way. It doesn't matter if you have a 'compass of heaven' for performance on the 47th floor underground"

"Oh, that's what..."

"From here, tactical speed will divide victory and defeat. Let's just move on."

If possible, I want to reach the 40th floor by the end of the day.
