After teleporting to the first area of the upper layer of the labyrinth, I lowered Zena san and Miss Gelca on my shoulders to the ground…
However, the second state looked strange, they were stiff and unable to move…
I apologize to Miss Gelca but I made her wait in the air with the magic [Magic Hand] and check the details of Zena san's condition…
He seemed to be at the status of [Restraint(Hold)]…
Checking the logs, True Ancestor attacked them and I with the status of [Hold Geiss] attacked right before we teleported…
Pretty amazing considering the time I made a hole and teleported in just a few seconds…
No, I think I jumped right into the spot where Zena san and Miss Gelca would be hit, huh…
I thought about what would happen if I didn't have resistance to it…
Since I didn't get a resistance skill, one of the skills I already had might work…
For now, I will try to see if [Break Magic] can release the abnormal status…
I have to talk before that…
"Relax…"
"I'm here to save you…"
Zena san and Miss Gelca are a little quiet…
It seemed like they had not spoken since a while ago not because they were cautious, but because of the [Hold] status…
Magic [Hold] should only make it difficult for you to speak, not forbid you from speaking at all, it seems that the effect is slightly different from the unique vampire skill…
"We've escaped from the vampire castle…"
"I'll free you both from abnormal status…"
"Calm down and wait…"
I told them both and used [Break Magic]…
I felt a slight resistance, but I was able to undo it without any problems…
"I must ask just in case, are you the one named Gelca…?"
"Yes, that's me…"
"I see, I came to save you at the request of a girl named Sosona…"
"There's no problem if I save that girl there too, right…?"
I made it look like I saved Zena san by chance along with Miss Gelca…
I'm sorry Sosona, but I'll use her as an excuse to replace the reward for saving her friend…
I urged the two to hurry to escape after coldly answering their thanks…
I felt sorry for Lilio and the others who were worried about him if we were too slow…
Right, I'll give Zena san and her partner a weapon for self-defense…
There is only for the sake of goblins on the road to the exit from here, but I will use this good opportunity to give Zena san magic weapon and a high-performance stick…
"This is the first area of the upper layer of the labyrinth…"
"I'll escort you both to the great hall before the exit…"
"Use this to protect yourself…"
"It's a simple but beautiful dagger..."
"Is this possibly made of mithril…?"
"It's not pure mithril…"
"It's just a mithril mixture, so don't mind it…"
Miss Gelca who seemed to have noticed the dagger material was at a loss for words when she asked me…
When I answered, I gave a short sword to Zena san…
This one is also a mass-produced magic sword sold by Echigoya…
"It's amazingly sharp..."
"I can feel a power stronger than the magic sword that Captain Derio has…"
"Use this sword belt…"
"You can't put your sword in that suit…"
I took out a stylish sword belt that was made to be sold to the Nobles and pushed it towards Zena san who saw a 10 cm long blade being pulled out of its sheath…
These girls could not wear swords without sword belts as they wore thin dresses and delicate pads…
"U, can you give us a stick as well if possible…?"
"We're witches…"
"We'd rather have a magic wand than a sword for self-protection…"
"Alright, use this…"
Since I had planned to give them one, I took out a long stick with [Item Box] and gave it to them…
I have made this wand from the old evergreen oak in the Boruenan Forest, it is able to limit the run out of magic as long as the magic is fused and used…
It is suitable for use in continuous combat in labyrinths and bombardments…
I originally planned to give this stick to Lina and Tiane, but since I obtained many world tree branches, the plan was suspended…
Miss Gelca immediately used reinforcement magic on her and confirmed the long stick…
"Ohh, this is an amazing stick…!"
"My magic flows smoothly until it becomes scary…"
"That's true…"
"After all, the consumption of magic power has been greatly reduced…"
Zena san used [] on everyone including me and muttered his impression…
I'm glad they like it…
It's better than letting the stick become fertilizer on my storage…
The name of the maker is empty (Shito/nameless), they should not suspect the maker…
We drove down the hallway to the exit…
We met some girls and boys who were fighting some goblins, so I asked them to escort Zena san and Miss Gelca to the exit…
"Of course I'll give you a gift…"
"Kuh, at least until our fight is over, wait a minute…"
A boy wearing a blue coat answered politely as he fought the goblins…
They seem to be graduates from [Pendora] but I don't know their faces…
Even so, fighting was difficult against some for the sake of goblins, greatly humiliating him…
They came to us after they beat for the sake of the goblins a few minutes unscathed…
"Tsk, this dagger is dirty with blood…"
"What, it's not poison, is it…?"
The boy made such a conversation while illuminating the chipped bone dagger from for the sake of the goblin…
"Recently, there have been a few goblins that use poison around the dagger…"
I see, so they have to fight while being careful not to get hit, huh…
The leader-like boy told me even though I didn't ask…
"Sorry, but guide these girls to the entrance…"
"This is your gift…"
I told them unilaterally and gave the small bag with some gold coins in it to the leader…
"Understand…"
"We're just escorting them up the big stairs, right…"
"I'm counting on you…"
He received a small bag while he let out a clang sound and agreed to escort them after confirming its contents…
The exit was only 30 minutes away, so he probably thought that it was good for some extra money…
"Then Goodbye…"
"Send my regards to Sosona Dono…"
"Umm, please tell me your name…"
"I'm not one to give my name easily…"
What I said…
Well, I can give you the name Kuro, but I returned to the mansion with [Return] magic after hiding myself in the darkness of the passageway…
"Hhh…!
"Here…!"
I found Lilio and the members of [Moonlight] gathered in front of the Guild when I came there with Lina and the others…
They were also with the other members of the Seryuu City's Selected Labyrinth Corps who had recovered…
As expected, they did not have enough time to repair their equipment, so the damage to their armor remained…
Zena san and Miss Gelca had started to speed through the [Passage of Death] in front of the labyrinth gate when I greeted the captain of the Seryuu City's Selected Labyrinth Corps, Sir Henz…
When they had approached the west gate, I closed our conversation and walked towards the west gate to meet Zena san…
"Ze, Zena cchiii…!"
"Lilio…!"
"I'm back…"
Lilio jumped at Zena san who was coming out from the west gate when she saw him…
A little after him, Miss Iona and Miss Ruu also congratulated him on his safety…
"Zena san, I'm glad you're safe…"
"Secilia san…!"
Even while being hugged by the three girls, Zena san extended her hand between the gaps and I clasped her white hand to congratulate her safe return…
Lina and Tiane lightly kicked me from behind, please stop being jealous during the reunion…
It seemed like Zena san and Miss Gelca were unable to talk about vampires due to the [Contract] skill, so they reported to the Guild that they were kidnapped, locked up and then, saved by a mysterious person…
The mysterious person was immediately assessed as Kuro as soon as they described his appearance…
Therefore, it was decided that the person who had kidnapped Zena san was Lost Thieves…
I guess I can talk about vampires to a Guild Master like Kuro later…
Zena san and the others will not enter the labyrinth for the next few days to repair their equipment and they will rest as much as possible today after we promise to eat together tomorrow…
By the way, anyway, the reason why the Seryuu Town Selected Labyrinth Corps was destroyed was not because of vampires but because some Soldier Mantis came out of the gushing hole and connected when they fought with several Beetles so it became a fierce battle…
At that moment, Zena san was immediately kidnapped by the thick fog once she suffered serious injuries…
I heard later that Miss Gelca was also kidnapped by thick fog when she was dying after being attacked by the Assassin Shadow Goblin…
I wanted to ask more details, but since Miss Karina appeared from the west gate while looking like a corpse behind Nana, I was forced to suspend her…
Apparently, he was riding [< Floating Board >] made with Cronoa force art…
Not only were Miss Karina, Erina and the others, Shino and Crow were also taken while looking tired…
They may be exhausted from leveling up suddenly…
"Master, report our return"
"I'm home…?"
"Welcome back…"
"Are Karina the same and the others experiencing the disease leveling up…?"
"Yes, so I reiterate…"
Looking at the indicator, Miss Karina has climbed 3 levels, while Shino and Crow have risen from level 1 to level 7…
What kind of wild training do they do…
I should tell them to hold back a little during the labyrinth training tomorrow since she should come to the tea party and banquet with me, the day after tomorrow…
And then, at night that day, I returned to the labyrinth after comforting Ciel who was feeling down from the meatless children's lunch…
Yes, to meet True Ancestor who might be a reincarnated person…
