Death March kara Hajimaru Isekai Kyusoukyoku (WN)-18-36. Boy in the Labyrinth City (10)
18-36. Boy in the Labyrinth City (10)
--Stampede?
Will a large army of monsters come over here?
"Students, you should go up the stairs of the pillars and wait at the top, so I command."
The instructor points to a nearby pillar.
"Do I have to run away?"
"You shouldn't expect to be able to escape to the safe zone when tired."
The instructor answers the question of the aristocratic child, Rojym.
"I tell you, Harry."
Harry?
Is it someone's name?
"Hurry up. Fast on the pillar!"
Laxis pulls my arm towards the pillar, followed by the others.
It seems that Laxis can understand such words just like my younger sister's.
"Hey, the instructor is staying down there?"
Looking down at Zaki's words, the instructor is standing at the previous location.
The instructor had a large shield that could reach her height.
"Instructor! Hurry up!"
"Stampede is approaching!"
"You don't have to worry, so I tell."
The explorers who warned regarding the Stampede ran past the instructor while she said that.
Behind them, a number of explorers continue to come with edge of dead expressions.
"Hey, make room"
I heard a voice coming from bellow the pillar.
I don't know.
Apparently, some explorers gave up running and evacuated to this pillar.
When we moved to avoid them, they escape through the suspension bridge towards the next pillar.
"You!"
Lhasa muttered and grabbed the arm of the person heading towards the suspension bridge.
"What do you want?"
"You are from Gon's hometown? What happened to Gon and his friends?"
I remembered it in Lhasa's words.
He is the one who invited Gon and his friends to the party.
"They escaped first."
He shakes Lhasa's hand, saying, "Release me," and continues speaking.
"Didn't you come over there?"
"Yes"
"Well … well, there's a Gon with a shield, so he was running away in an another direction."
He doesn't seem to be too concerned.
"Gon, is he okay?"
"I'm worried too, but there's nothing we can do."
At my words, Zaki shakes his head.
"There is a flock of monsters"
"It's not just goblins. There are also labyrinth ants and labyrinth rats."
Sag and Rojim, who were watching the Stampede, speak.
"Monsters! That speed is not safe and so keeps to the legal speed, so I declare!"
The instructor's unfamiliar cry echoes.
"what?"
"That's the shield-man Taunt skill. ”
The instructor holds the shield.
"Look at that!"
"Light appearing around the instructor? A magical arrow?"
"There are so many arrows!"
"It's like the legend of the King"
Dozens of magical arrows that appear around the instructor fly toward the monster all at once with a single swing of her sword.
But their number is too large. I'm scared that to that many of monsters, its like water on a burnt stone.
"No. The numbers are too different."
"No such thing! Look!"
Magic arrows approaching monsters one after another angle.
"Wow! Many monsters are falling down with a single arrow!"
Laxis says in an excited voice.
Perhaps unconsciously, I grab her arm and shake it.
"They did it! The monsters' charge stopped!"
The monster in the foreground collapses with the exploding magic arrow, and the subsequent monsters are taken down in a chain reaction.
The magical arrow shot by the instructor stops there.
"Wow … is that the power of a veteran explorer …"
Ute, a priest apprentice, mutters in low voice.
I understand that feeling.
It's an overwhelming power that seems to have come out of a Hero Story.
The battle between the instructor and the demons came to an end and we were watching the one-sided slaughter by the instructor.
"She won alone"
"Yes"
Lhasa nods to Zaki's words.
"Oh! Keros!"
"There is also Sina"
Investigators come from a different direction than the stampede came.
It's hard to understand because it's far away, but I found Keros and Sina among the explorers.
"I can't find Gon …"
Sina lends her shoulders to Keros, who is covered in wounds.
"Something is bad"
Neze, a human, mutters such a thing.
"what?"
"I don't know"
It seems that he doesn't know the reason, and Neze twists his head suspiciously.
"Why do they keep looking towards the back?"
At Ute's words, Lhasa turned with a grimace face and pressed her ears against the wall of the pillar.
--I wonder what?
I imitate as well.
A small vibration was transmitted.
"It's bad! Instructor!"
Lhasa shouts at the instructor on the ground.
"Something is coming from this direction! Maybe a big guy!"
The instructor jumps up to this point in an instant and stares at the direction Lhasa points to.
"This was a problem, so I tell."
"If the instructor is saying such a thing--"
A roaring sound drowned out Lhasa's words.
Behind China, the wall surrounding the maze broke and something came out.
A guy like a giant earthworm. Something like a string grows from the tip.
"Big!"
"What is it ?!"
"I guess it's the master of the area, or its progeny."
"Area master? There is no master of the area in the first floor! It's common sense!"
The uncle explorer, who brought the stampede denies the instructor's words.
"It is a fool's act to deny the sight in front of you just because it is different from common sense, so I assert."
An uncle explorer looks like he had a toothache saying "Gununu".
"We have to run away!"
"That's right! Such a pillar cannot act as a shelter from that giant!"
Rojim, a noble child, agrees with Zaki's words.
Uncle explorers listening to the conversation run down while pushing us away.
"Instructor! Can you win?"
We ask the instructor while following behind the older explorers.
"It is not possible with the current equipment, so I tell."
Not even such a great instructor win?
"Keros, you have to do your best!"
There was the voice of Sina closer than I expected.
Looking back, there is Sina who runs while lending her shoulders to Keros.
"No, it's so close!"
Lhasa is looking at the "area master" who comes while knocking down the walls and pillars of the maze.
At this rate, both Sina and Keros will be eaten by the him.
I start to ran towards them.
"Sharon!"
While listening to Lhasa's distressed voice coming from behind.
"What? Sharon?"
Lend a shoulder to Keros from the other side of Sina and help them run.
"Lets alternate. Sina is also injured."
Lhasa, who catch up, supported Keros instead of Sina, but unexpectedly she couldn't support the heavy Keros and staggers.
"Lhasa, I'll take over."
It seems that Zaki also came.
"Sharon, from behind!"
"--Laxis?"
Laxis, running from the front, tackles our feet and makes us fall.
"Wow, what are you doing ?!"
Something crossed over above our sprawled bodies at high speed.
I saw nearby walls and pillars being knocked down.
"His tentacles were flying!"
Zaki's surprised voice made me realize the situation.
The tentacles that grow from the tip of a giant earthworm seem to reach a great distance.
"Thank you, Laxis"
If Laxis didn't take the risk and trip us, I think I would have been dead earlier.
"Thank me later. We have to run away now."
I carry Keros on my back and run out with Lhasa, who pulls Sina's hand.
Zaki and Laxis follow our lead while watching behind.
"Incoming!"
"I would not let you-”Shield"
Behind us, a number of transparent shields appeared, catching the tentacles of the giant earthworm.
" Hurry now, so I tell."
Another tentacle wraps around the transparent shield, while the instructor has come by wielding a large shield and sword.
"It's bad, it's just like this …"
"Zaki, look only to the front and hurry!"
We trust in the instructor and run with all our might.
There was a roaring noise behind me, and the instructor was blown overhead.
Nearly 10 tentacles chase her body.
"Instructor!"
"--Dangerous!"
Laxis pull me as I was following the instructor with my eyes.
The tentacles are stuck in the place where I was.
"I was saved again"
"I do not like this now--"
From the other side of Laxis, I saw tentacles flying, tearing through the ground.
She can't make it normally.
Even if you pull it down, the whole ground will be blown away.
--Ground shrink.
Using my trump skill, I was able to save Laxis at the last moment.
However, it seems that it was impossible to use it with Keros on my top of me.
"Sharon!"
I roll on the ground with Keros on my back.
The body does not move as if it was paralyzed by the aftereffect of the skill.
"Run away! Laxis!"
Before the next tentacle comes.
Laxis runs out.
That's it. That's fine.
Laxis stopped next to a large pillar.
"You can't escape in this situation!"
He hits the pillar with his hand and shouts in anger.
Purple light flowed like ripples on the surface of Laxis -sis's body.
"Come! Golden Knight!"
At the same time as Laxis screamed, the surface of the pillar turn bumpy and wavy, and a golden hand appeared from inside.
It's a big hand that can grab my whole body.
Following the hand, the upper body of a huge knight appears.
"Isn't it possible once … once again!"
Purple ripples shined again on Laxis's body, and the giant knight who had stopped on the way completely appeared.
"Hahhhhh--go! The golden knight!"
The golden knight begins to move as ordered by Laxis.
The golden knight catches the tentacles of a giant earthworm.
The golden knight who received it killing its momentum and pushes it into the ground.
"While we have time!"
"Do you understand!"
Prompted by Laxis, Lhasa and Zaki drag me and Keros.
"Laxis come fast!"
"I can't. If I leave here, it will revert."
The sweat of exertion is shining on the face of Laxis, while she shouts so.
"--Ah"
A giant earthworm twisted and shook its tip.
A golden knight entwined with tentacles smashes into the walls of the maze and slams into a nearby pillar.
"Kuuuu"
Laxis holds her body and moans as if the pain of the golden knight was transmitted.
"Laxis!"
"It's okay. Its nothing!"
Laxis clenching her teeth glares at a giant earthworm.
A line of red drops ran down from her lips.
"Student Laxis I praise you for doing well."
"Instructor!"
The rubble was blown off and the instructor returned to the front.
"If the instructor and the golden knight team up, we can beat that too!"
"Negation. Student Zaki, we evaluate that we cannot win."
Can not win? Even that giant and the instructor?
Is that giant earthworm so strong?
"If so …"
I squeeze out some energy and stand up.
"I will do my best too."
My sister gets angry if I just let myself be protected by a girl.
The instructor gently placed his hand on my shoulder.
"It is not necessary, so I tell"
"I can be a decoy, too."
"I don't mean it like that, so I correct."
The instructor pointed forward.
Two shadows quickly approached the giant earthworm that slammed the golden knight on the ground.
"It's the running dragon, so I tell!"
"Because we are two people, It's more corrects that the double running dragon kick!"
Two shadows slammed into the head of a giant earthworm at a tremendous speed.
Someone is riding a lizard running on two hind legs.
"That is--"
"My sisters, so I inform."
A transparent stake like four pillars pierces the head of a giant earthworm that roars screaming.
"Were we late?"
A beautiful blonde girl who looks just like an instructor landed on a nearby wall.
There are three other beautiful blonde women with the same face. If you include the two people on the lizard and the instructor, there are a total of seven people.
"No Adeen. You were just in time, so I tell."
"Then it was good. Are you taking a break?"
"No Adeen. I want to participate in the battle, so I tell."
"Okay. We are going with Formation C. Is there enough magical power to store?"
" Adeen. I can go about one advanced magic shot, so I tell."
"Formation?"
"Formation C. Explain that it is in caster mode."
"… Why is it in English?"
Laxis grumbles while making the Golden Knight hold down the giant earthworm.
The instructors hold a cane.
"" " Divine Giant Lance"" ""
A giant spear, nearly three times taller than their height, appears beside the instructors.
Later, I was told that it was an advanced attack magic.
"Golden Knight! Hold it down with all your might!"
The golden knight ordered by Laxis squeezes the tentacles of a giant earthworm without regard for his own arm breaking.
"shoot!"
"" Affirmative Adeen ""
The giant spears that appeared beside the instructors were released all at once and pierced the body of the giant earthworm one after another.
"" Divine Giant Lance ""
The second and third giant spears skewer giant earthworms one after another.
"……very"
It's like a event from a myth or a hero story.
Only the instructor Six was out of magic and was only the first time, but she was watching the activities of the sisters as if she didn't care about that.
"Already the at my limit"
I catch the body of Laxis, who collapsed fainting.
It was exhausting to move my body, but it's better than dropping her as a meritorious person to the ground.
"She fine?"
Lhasa looks down at me with a tired face.
Beyond Lhasa, a giant earthworm that is in pain is swinging its head while sprinkling body fluids.
A torn golden knight's arm was attached to the tip of the tentacle.
The golden knight who has finished his role is already returning to the earthen mass.
"Tell me it's over"
The fourth giant spear attack completely silenced the giant earthworm.
"You survived"
"I want you to never do this again."
We laugh together with Lhasa and Zaki.
◇
After that, it was a lot of work.
Fortunately, Gon, whose survival in question, was alive.
Instructor Yuit's servant discovered that he was buried under the rubble.
However, the cost of survival was great.
Gon has lost his elbow on one arm, but remains at the party with his prosthesis.
On the other hand, Keros retired and returned to his hometown, probably because the fear of the labyrinth had permeated his body. Sina seems to have become a servant of the base as a party chore.
We are--.
"Sharon! It's about time to go to the party formation ceremony!"
"OK. What about Lhasa?"
"I'm going first"
After finishing the rookie class, we decided to have a party with everyone in the group.
Unfortunately, the aristocratic child Rojim and his servant Sag were unavailable because they had a prior affiliation, but all the other members are the same.
"What? What about Laxis?"
For some reason, there was no Laxis at the meeting place.
"She said she had something to do and went over there."
Neze, a human, points to the back of the restaurant.
"I'll see you for a moment."
I had a feeling that she wasn't happy.
"--Laxis, you have finally used your authority."
"Why do you know?"
In the shadows, Laxis is talking to someone who came in a dark purple robe.
The hooded man I saw before. 𝙛𝔯𝒆e𝔀e𝗯𝓷𝗼𝘃e𝚕.𝒄𝗼𝗺
"I heard from the shadow on the escort."
"Escort? That's wrong it was a spy, right?"
"It seems that there is a misunderstanding. Our cult is--"
"I don't want to hear it. Go home."
"To fully use your power, you should go back to the cult and ask your sisters to teach you."
"You said you didn't feel like it. I used a unique skill because I was in a situation where I would die if I didn't use it. If I don't have to use it, I'll never use it."
"Laxis, don't look at me--"
A man grabbed Lachesis' arm.
At this rate, Laxis will be taken somewhere.
When I thought so, I was running.
"Laxis!"
"Sharon?"
Laxis screamed confused.
"Let's go! Laxis!"
I reach out to her.
Laxis tried to take my hand, but a man pulled her hand and prevented it.
"Release me!"
Laxis shakes the man's hand.
I grabbed her hand.
"Laxis!"
"I won't go home! You guys go home and tell my sisters. I'll live in the labyrinth city!"
Running with me, Laxis looked back at the men and shouted.
"Is it fine?"
"Yes! I feel very good now!"
Laxis looked at me with a smile.
I also give her a smile.
We ran.
To the friends who go to the labyrinth together.
◆◆◆ In a certain village ◆◆◆
"Reina-san, you really are--"
"No! Its a misunderstanding, Mr. Akindo!"
Reina shouts to drown out Akindo's stunned voice.
"Well, yes! Remake! There was a Reina version! It's not a rerun, let alone a main broadcast!"
"……is that so"
"Truth?"
Reina tilts her head cutely.
"Let's do that"
"What's the truth? Ah ah ah ah ah ah"
Reina's cry echoed on the outskirts of the village.
* The next update is scheduled around March.
The Labyrinth City Boys series will end for now.
