After safely transitioning to the Innies' mansion, I explained to the masters what happened in Nerdal, and they agreed with my idea in two replies.
Well, rather than agreeing with me, it was more correct to recognize that raising the level was originally in the plan, but it was only accelerated.......
''So, Luciel, what do you want to do with your face? You can't just take them all out of the blue, can you?
'Yes. So we're going to prioritize taking people who are capable of defending themselves first.
This or my troubled conclusion was the conclusion I came to.
Of course we need heroes like Master and Lionel, who are unjustly wise, but it's more efficient to leave those who have individual strength to raids, and leave them to people with high ability to defend their bases.
But it's more efficient to leave those who have individual strength to raid and leave it to those who are more capable of defending their bases.
''Defense capability........is that the young lady who controls that golem?''
''Yes. Well, I have some magic tools that I want the Technical Development Department to make, so I'll take them first and raise their level at once. Then, once I have him update his status limit significantly, I'll have him return to Yenis by the end of the day, though.
You mean the first time you go back and forth?
''Yes. Oh, just so you know, Master and Lionel are calculated to be a force to be reckoned with when fighting the evil gods, so you'll be spending your time in the labyrinth of intrigue.
That's exactly what happened, if the masters weren't willing to fight with me, there would be no way I would have the spirit to challenge the evil gods.
''Of course. I will defeat him this time.
"You can't be late to the same fight twice,
If I really let these two take care of it, I would hope that they might be able to defeat the evil gods as well.
''That's good to hear. But master, Lionel is going to have a baby from now on, so I'm not going to force him to fight the evil god. I don't mind the role of protecting this Yenis, an important stronghold.
''No need to worry about it. It was Luciel-sama who saved your life once you lost it, so it's only natural for you to work hard for Luciel-sama. Besides, I have faith that Luciel-sama will be able to heal you this time as well.
Lionel's loyalty is heavy........
Well, this time, even if I get attacked, I won't turn undead, and I have various strategies, so I'm confident that I can recover fully as much as I want as long as I don't just die instantly.
I'm confident that I can recover as much as I want as long as you don't die instantly. If you do that, I'll recover for sure.
Ha!
So why don't you finish lunch and we'll be on our way?
You're not gonna do this straight away?
You don't want to be hungry and inefficient.
Yeah.
Thanks to the efforts of Luciel's employees during our meal, all the arrangements for our departure were completed by the time we finished eating.
Then they gathered those who were going to the labyrinth of intrigue into the hall on the first floor.
Master, Lionel, and then Bazak were the fixed members of the group, and then they called in the Technology Development Department, Lydia, and a surprise, Cressia, who was teaching Yenis.
It was a surprise, but in addition to her high skill level with the bow, she wanted to seriously protect the children's future, so she was selected as the protector of Yenis.
At first they were afraid to go to the labyrinth, but when I politely explained to them that this time it would be power leveling and told them it would be just a matter of shooting arrows, they agreed with a relieved expression on their faces.
And although the Technical Development Department was working on the magic tools that I asked them to create, they seemed to feel the benefits of leveling up strongly from going to the Valley of the Dragon, and they agreed with me in two replies.
However, since Kefin seemed unhappy with his absence following the Valley of the Dragon, the members of the Technical Development Department returned to Yenis (here) in the evening, and when I told them that I would be replacing members, they bowed their heads as if they'd cleared up their minds.
I decided to ask Kefin to take on an important role.
Kefin, Ketty. I have a very important mission for you two. I want you to keep an eye on the reincarnated ones. If you do anything, use your powers to stop them.
Ha!
Yeah, of course.
With that reply, we were transferred to the Labyrinth of Intrigue.
Since we couldn't transfer directly into the labyrinth of intrigue, we had to start from the entrance.
I'm sure you'll be able to find out what's going on with the rest of your life.
Then I noticed that the structure inside the labyrinth had changed.
'Master, since the structure has changed, the old map is no longer useful. Perhaps the mechanism by which the demons change according to the level of the main department store may have changed as well.''
Well, if you do, then you can get the dragons and the spirits to help you.
Master seemed to be quite calm.
''Cooperation?''
'Yeah. The best, of course, is that the demons that come out of the main room here will be the ones on the level of the one who opened it. We can fight as many times as we want. But if that's not possible, then you'll have to get them to go to the Dark Continent from here to seriously raise their level.
Master's face was more serious than ever and he didn't seem to be joking.
What to do, having broken Master's common sense in such a short period of time, had Master's thought process been completely broken?
Going out to the Dark Continent from here or something like that, it's just the idea of a battle fanatic.
........Master is, well, a battle fanatic.
''........Master, that's indeed not true. And I think there's a good reason why Lord Leinster was deliberately sealed up for a reason.
'Even though you're Lord Leinster, a lot of heroes' achievements in the past have been fabricated. Well, he has a record of quite a few achievements as an adventurer as well.
''I know that because I've heard about it from the spirits and the dragon gods. I heard that Lord Leinster defeated that evil god by himself and cut down the World Tree at that time.
Huh, I wish we could have met at least once.
Could it be that a couple of screws of common sense had flown off from Master's head during his training with the reincarnated dragons? When I was confused, Lionel, who had defeated the wolf-type demon, spoke to me.
''Luciel-sama, I will accompany you when you go to the Dark Continent just now.
I'm sure there are still people out there who want to go and train on the Dark Continent.
I hope not.
With that conversation, I proceeded to find and disarm the traps and finally arrived at the boss room.
Okay, I'll open the door, and I want everyone to get ready for battle.
I made sure everyone was ready and opened the door.
As soon as I opened it, I was convinced that both great fortune and high luck were at their fullest potential.
I was sure that the true value of both great fortune and high fortune was being demonstrated to the fullest extent.
The random boss that appeared was a super-sized bat that dripped miasma from its body.
It seemed that that demon was definitely going to be in the very strong category.
It's a good idea to have a good idea of what to do with it, but it's not a good idea to have a good idea of what to do with it.
And when I tried to cut off my eyes from the supermassive bats to check on everyone's situation, everyone's attack had already begun.
First, Master and Lionel released a slash and the bat's left and right wings were cut off, Cresia's arrow, which Lydia assisted and increased in power, pierced the left eye, and Lythian manipulated the blue-white glowing plant to tie up the supermassive bat, and Paula and Doran's combined golem rammed in headfirst.
Finally, a little later, Bazak attacked with his four-attribute spear, and dust danced in the air.
'Everyone didn't surrender even if there was a level difference. With this, we should be able to raise our levels immediately.''
I turned back to everyone and announced.
'Hey Luciel, we're not done yet.
You'll be fine.
When the dust disappeared, the supermassive bat was struggling inside the sanctuary ward that had been activated without chanting.
''Luciel, why did you lock it into the ward instead of defeating it?''
'You don't have to look at me like that. It's just to make sure that everyone's attacks are going through. Also, if we're going to continue to fight the same demons in the future, I thought we should gather as much information as possible to make the fight as safe as possible. It seems that we can't break the double sanctuary wards, so that's good.
I said this and activated the Sanctuary Circle.
The supermassive bat was burned by blue-white flames as usual, but to my surprise, just before it was destroyed, it took the form of a human and disappeared, leaving behind a magical stone.
Could it have been a demon race?
Or was he a vampire?
With that in mind, he was relieved that everyone's level had risen to the level he had speculated, and he called out to them to prepare for the next battle.
