Swordmaster: The Origin
Dungeons
After the committee gave an explanation of the Exam and its rules, a large blue portal appeared in the middle of the field.
All students of the academy in the field are directed to enter the portal in turns.
Nix and his party entered the portal, then he arrived at a forest with a large labyrinth door in front of them.
The huge labyrinth door was gray, with mysterious carvings of images engraved on the door.
Frederica, Elvia, and all the parties in front of the labyrinth door were amazed to see the big door in front of them.
"Wohhhh...."
"That's great...."
"So this is the labyrinth door huh..."
Nix looked at the door while trying to understand the carving that was there, although he knew that it was in vain with his knowledge that was still a little.
The portal door that was still not far behind Nix, closed when all the students and the committee had already entered it.
"All students please line up neatly until further notice from the committee is given!" Shouted one of the exam committee.
After hearing that, the academy students formed 3 back rows filled by each party member from the side.
5 minutes later, the labyrinth door opened slowly, along with it, the surrounding ground rumbled. Some of the students in the field were surprised.
"Oi-oi, does opening the labyrinth door make an earthquake?
"S-it looks like it.."
After the labyrinth door was fully opened, the examination committee told all parties to enter the labyrinth in an orderly manner.
...----------------...
Inside the dark labyrinth that was only illuminated by the glowing magic stone that floated in the air, There were 4 huge passageways that were the path to enter the interior of the labyrinth.
In front of the four large hallways, an entire examination committee of 20 people gathered to give final briefings to the students.
The one who was in the middle of the examination committee, a green-haired man with red eyes and a trained body, was, shouting in front of the students and party who were busy chatting and looking around the labyrinth.
"Everything! shut up and listen to me!!"
The busy students immediately stopped their activities and focused on the person in front of them.
The man immediately spoke back after seeing the atmosphere had already become conducive
"My name is Raiden Wrath, who was appointed by the chairman of the OSIS to be the chair of the examination committee this time. For the last time, I will reaffirm to you what you should do in this maze." Raiden.
Raiden took out something from his pants pocket, a golden key that he showed the entire disciple.
"This is the key to the labyrinth, the key you must get to pass the test this time. It might not have been told before, but there were a total of 10 keys scattered throughout the labyrinth. Your only goal 1 is to find and get them." Clarify Raiden.
Raiden put his gold key back in his pocket.
"Need to remember, the students are free to attack the other party as long as it does not kill him, so try to stay afloat and fight until the end. That's just a notice from me, so."
After finishing his words, Raiden and all the test committee who were in front of the labyrinth hall pulled over to the side of the labyrinth.
Then Raiden pulled out a gun from his pocket and pointed it upwards.
"ALL STUDENTS ARE READY!!"
All the students including Nix and his party prepared themselves to enter the labyrinth.
Frederica and Elvia who were preparing to enter sweat from their faces.
"A-are we gonna be okay in there?" Worried Elvia.
"Just relax, we just need to get that key. Once we get it, we'll get right out of there, so let's get excited!" Frederica encouraged Elvia.
He hoped that by taking this exam, the relationship between them including Nix would get better.
Nix looked towards the 4 passageways, while thinking about which direction his party would take.
Meanwhile, Raiden who saw the students had prepared, shot his gun straight up.
"START!!"
*DOR*
With the release of the shooting, the OSIS election exam has officially begun.
...----------------...
Nix and his party crammed into another party that was running towards the passageway of their choice.
Nix, who still did not know which passage to take, asked Frederica and Elvia who were beside him.
"Frederica, Elvia, which hallway are we going to take?" Nix said as he ran.
Frederica shook her head at Nix's question.
"I don't know, but maybe we should take the right-hand passage. What about Elvia herself?"
"U-um. Give me a minute." Elvia closed her eyes.
Not long after, Elvia opened her eyes again.
"From the flow of magic I felt, the weakest flow of magic seemed to be in the far left passageway, so there might not be that many monsters there." Clarify Elvia.
Nix and Frederica who heard Elvia nodded her head in agreement.
"Alright, then, let's follow Elvia's idea."
"Yes, I agree too."
After giving his approval, Nix and his group went towards the left-most passageway in the labyrinth.
...----------------...
After going inside, Nix and his party who were running around while jostling for 5 minutes, arrived at a large room containing many monsters that had prepared to attack them there.
The monster was a living skull with a sword in his right hand and a shield in his left.
However since Nix was included in the back of the crowd, he was freely able to pass through the monsters and hand them over to the group that was in front.
"They're not after us, let's go deeper." Take Nix.
Frederica and Elvia nodded in agreement.
Nix and his group ran even further inside.
The deeper one went, the fewer groups remained, until finally there were only a few groups still running.
Nix and his group who belonged to the rear row, belonged to one of the party groups that had already entered the deepest part of the labyrinth.
That is, Nix and his party belong to one of the groups that have gone the furthest into the group compared to the other groups that are still fighting monsters behind.
"In front there is a room that seems to be filled with monsters, prepare yourself." Nix said to his group.
"Yes, I've prepared supporting magic to support you guys." Elvia.
"I'm ready too." Frederica held her sword sheath.
After confirming that her party was ready, Nix and his group rushed towards the room illuminated by a dim green light.
