The Labyrinth Kingdom

Chapters 17. New Plan

"Conley, you …. What are you saying! Don't mess! "

Hearing Conley's request, Tieres endured his pain for a while and shouted with all his might.

"Uugh, hurry up and get me out of this shitty maze! Hhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

Looking at his yelling leader with cold eyes, Conley knelt down and spoke to Aaron.

“I didn't ask for it out of sheer profanity, I think this will give you benefits as well. ”

“Ho, can give me benefits!, it seems interesting. Continue …. ”

"Quick, Quick, NOW, HPW!"

“You are so noisy! Don't interrupt brother's talk! Raluk, shut the guy up! ”

"Yes!"

Raluk approached Tieres who kept shouting, and taking the cloth he had bagged, it looked dirty as he used it to wipe his blood and sweat. He stuffed the dirty cloth into Tieres' mouth to silence him.

Since from the start he was already severely injured and in a weakened condition, Tieres would probably die of suffocation if the cover of his mouth was not immediately removed but, in this place including Conley, it was possible, no one cared about anything that would happen to Tieres.

Seeing that he had calmed down, Aaron began to ask him to speak.

"Now, you can continue"

"Yes.the reason why you let some of our teammates escape, is so that they can spread information about the existence of this labyrinth. That way there will be more adventures like us coming here, isn't that right? "

"Why do you think that?"

“Maze like this, even if no one talks about it, there should be rumors about it. But, when we did the information gathering, we did not know about this labyrinth. There are 2 possibilities for that. First, the person who knows the existence of the labyrinth has been killed Or Second, this labyrinth was created recently ”

“…. . ”

"If it's the first, then there's no way you'll let our party members escape. With the strength of the knights there, it was not difficult to kill the fleeing priests and magicians. However, when I thought that there were hardly any traps or monsters protecting this place, I felt that the latter was more convincing. ”

“……”

“I don't know how you can make a labyrinth. But, when I think of all the excuses I missed, I can't get any answers other than that, you want to summon people to this labyrinth with treasures as bait. ”

While looking at the Priest who could see his plan clearly, Aaron said.

"Assuming what you said is true, why should I let the woman go?"

“Because, if the story only comes from our members who ran away, I think your plan will not work. The number of people who managed to escape was too few. ”

"Is it because the one who ran away only knew a few people?"

"That was also one of the reasons, but the real reason was because the Knight was too strong. ”

Derito remembered when his teammate from the [Holy Sword] was killed.

No matter how attractive the treasures within the labyrinth were, not many people would come if they knew the strength of the creature protecting it like a dragon.

That place would only be a nest of dragons, no one would dare to enter it.

The purpose of an adventurer entering the labyrinth is to become rich, so that they can live life luxuriously. That was why they were so sensitive to the dangers that threatened his life.

“Then, doesn't that mean it's useless to free this woman? This woman knew how frightening the knight of judgment was. ”

“No, they're useful. ”

"Humm?"

"I want them to take on the role of the one who managed to defeat the knights, so people will think that the guard of this labyrinth no longer exists"

If the dragon nest had been abandoned by its inhabitants, then the place would only be a gold mine.

"Will this woman work together to carry out that plan?"

"they will.., I will try to convince them to cooperate!"

Conley raised his face to look at Aaron.

For a while, the eyes of the Priest and the master of the labyrinth met.

“…. . I might be able to consider granting your request but, why are you helping these women? "

Aaron asked because he did not understand the reason, there was no advantage of doing that from the start.

Conley swallowed his saliva and conveyed what was inside his mind.

“there is no special reason, At this moment, only I can help them.

"Are you not going to regret it?"

"Yes, I just can't feel at ease if I leave these women here... ”

"Well, I've heard your excuses"

"Hishihi"

Alice laughed in response to his words.

Aaron looked at the knight of judgment and asked.

"Are you going to let go of that woman?"

"get along with your wishes, sir. ”

After hearing the question from the labyrinth master, the judgment knight answered him without a second thought.

"Then, Alice, what do you think?"

“I think it's okay. I have no intention of using it for anything! ”

'Did he lose interest?' aaron said in his heart.

Alice answered like she was throwing away a toy she was tired of playing with.

'Did he turn his attention to Conley this time?'

he wondered out of curiosity.

"But Hey ~, if we release the woman, you and the man there, are you okay with that? Maybe you'll be killed soon. ”

"If possible I want to escape from this place immediately, because this place is very dangerous. Yet…. ”

"However?"

"To protect that woman despite having to sacrifice her life, I don't think it would be too bad to be a man's last moments"

{ket: No.. Fuckboys invaded my story, your words are too Cringe, my friend... }

'A selfish man, more concerned with the safety of women than the safety of himself and his friend, pull~'

Her smile became wider and Alice said to her older brother.

“Un, I like that. Brother! Let's run the plan suggested by this man! ”

"All right"

"L-then …. ”

"Conley, we'll take your advice. The woman will be released. Although it can not be implemented immediately .., but after refining it a little, we can carry out your plan. Is that okay? ”

"Yes, thank you very much"

“we are satisfied with your performance, you will become our subordinate and work for us from now on. You don't have a problem with that, do you? "

“…. I, yes . I understand . ”

“Don't worry, although a little you will still be paid for your good performance. ”

“…. . ”

“depending on your work, you might be able to go to surface”

While facing the battle, he may be useless, but Aaron is drawn to Conley. Alice only likes strong creatures, while Aaron likes intelligent people.

Of course, Aaron and Alice are not fools.

They had an incredible knowledge of magic, and knew many things about the labyrinth.

But, beyond that, they know nothing about humans, especially humans today. To make up for that deficiency, it is necessary to have human collaborators.
