“Yes, yes... ... . I lost this time.”

As Zaun said, he raised his middle finger at Lennok.

I couldn’t have guessed the possibility that the block was forcibly hidden as soon as I discovered Zaun’s existence.

The decisive defeat in which Lennok took the block from the hidden block by widening the distance.

I deliberately tried to keep my distance from the block so as not to show off, but I didn’t know that I would notice it in an instant and attack it in reverse.

The sorceress whom Evelyn cherished seemed to be far more intelligent than he had thought.

“You’d better get away quickly before I catch up. Then both of you-!”

pat!!

Evelyn smiled broadly, which was rare to see, after confirming that Zaun’s appearance had been transferred to the ground.

“I feel cool. let’s hurry!”

“The calculation is over. Let’s leave right away.”

Lennok immediately stepped on the remaining blocks with Evelyn and opened the gate.

Kiki profit!!

The first gateway properly passed in this labyrinth.

At the same time as the light came on, the moment I stepped into the space beyond it, the noise that filled the cavity completely disappeared and a cold silence greeted Lennok again.

Whoa oh oh... ... !!

“here is... ... .”

“It’s too dreary for a road leading to the third gateway.”

As Lennok said that, he took out a telescope from inside his bosom and lifted it up.

A huge arched bridge that stretches endlessly.

Hundreds of such gigantic bridges stretched through the dark void.

A view of bridges connected to each other in the dark centered on a vast background that seems to have formed a simple universe.

The cold wind blowing from beyond the void made me swallow my saliva.

“Let’s go.”

said Lennok.

“Anyway, I think I know roughly what path Maiya chose.”

One of the legs on the right side of Lennok’s eyes as he said that.

The appearance of the abandoned fur pieces came into the eyes exceptionally clear.

* * *

Rumble!!

Zaun laughed as he looked up at Lennok’s disappearance over the gate.

“Heh X-foot... ... .”

Spitting on the floor, he raised his head slightly and looked up at the knight standing in front of him.

The face of a young Dane with a cool life. The figure of him holding the sword with both hands seemed to have no gaps.

Jiel and Rapford, the watchers who had been dealing with Dane until just now, also sneakily checked the direction of his life and stepped back.

It was because he had only tied up Dane for the sake of the two people who had gone ahead, and had no intention of interfering in their resentful relationship.

If he ignores even the observers who were disturbing him and focuses on Zaun, he probably doesn’t have a grudge.

It was not a bad thing for the observers to think of both sides while fighting over something like this.

Woooooooooooo!!!

The cavity is noisily shaken by the magical power that each of the four Aspect Powers rotates.

Zaun spoke to Dane in the middle of the storm, in the center of the battle, where the eyes of others were focused.

“Hey, aren’t you angry?”

“... ... .”

“After all, we were all fooled by that wizard. If the two of us fight here, will that bastard go the way he wants?”

Zaun looked around without waiting for an answer.

“Can you see the guys gathered in this maze right now? Other than the ones gathered here, where do you think all the guys who really hang out are?”

“... ... It must be waiting for the right time after passing through another gateway.”

Dane replied in a cold voice.

“What matters to them is not whether the Ascendant lives or dies, but the artifact he possesses.”

Of course, they weren’t the only ones with level 7 Aspect powers gathered in this labyrinth.

Various talented people who have heard rumors from all over the continent must be looking for opportunities in the labyrinth.

But what is the reason they are watching the situation instead of actively participating in the quarrel taking place in this joint?

Dane, as well as Zaun, knew the reason from the beginning.

“It is enough not to confirm the death of an ascendant... ... Rather, from the moment they discovered the location of the artifact, they must be conserving their strength, thinking that it was the beginning of a real skirmish.”

Dane, who fixed the sword, said.

“Because the way out to the labyrinth is limited. It is waiting for the decisive moment, keeping pace just enough to keep up with the center of the entrants.”

“No fuck, are you going to come out so frustrated knowing that?”

Zaun pounded his chest with a look that seemed like he was about to explode.

“If you know that, shouldn’t you pass through the gate quickly? You don’t have to get ahead of the monsters to even get your hands on an artifact, you stupid bastard!”

It seems that the others haven’t noticed yet, but Zaun, hiding in the cavity and watching Lennok and Ibelin’s conversation, knows who the real threat is.

At first glance, Evelyn, who stands at the core of the party, is merely following Lennok’s instructions.

It is up to the sorcerer named Evan to make practical decisions and set the direction.

If Hyungung, a veteran who has gone through all the battles in a large city, is entrusted with making decisions in the operation, there is no need to think about how sharp the judgment and intuition of a wizard named Evan will be.

Until now, I had been able to get through it easily with the help of the knowledge of the voice, but I was overtaken by Lenok due to my momentary carelessness, so it wouldn’t be strange if that happened again.

However, Dane did not budge from Zaun’s persuasion and slowly raised his magic power.

“To break through the labyrinth. It doesn’t matter. Especially when I think of my knights who died here.”

“Yeah fuck!!”

“But the legacy of the royal tomb you stole is worth more than their death.”

Whoop!!

Saying that, Dane twisted his shoulders and disappeared from his seat.

[Taehoe sword training]

[Three meals avant-garde]

[Gangbaek (强白)]

Wet love liquid!!

A noise as if the air was splitting and tearing.

A white sword light opened my eyes through the distorted heat haze as if space were being bent.

Before Zaun had time to react, the dazzling sword light that tore through his upper body tore through his limbs.

Chow ah!!

The Dane growled quietly as he extended his blade toward the void beyond, not even looking back at Zaun’s falling corpse in a splatter of blood.

“I will never listen to the words of the ruthless who stole the ashes of the late king. I will pay for that sin with my life here.”

“It’s really like this, so you shouldn’t make a lot of enemies unnecessarily... ... .”

With those words, the shredded corpse disappears like a haze.

Zaun sighed and licked his lips as he stepped out of the darkness.

“It’s all my karma, so I have to accept it.”

A transparent jeweled skull appears above his skinny hand that brushes past the inside of the robe.

Keyiing!!

The appearance of the jeweled skull froze the air around it and began to spill cold magic in all directions.

After destroying the armored car, Lennok and Evelyn ran for another 10 minutes before stopping.

The presence of the first enemy encountered between these void bridges.

Because there must have been a reason they were able to catch up with Lennok and Evelyn in such a short time.

“The speed of the armored vehicle just before the collision was around 150 km/h.”

Evelyn said as she sat between her legs.

“Even if he was fully stomping on the accelerator to chase us, it’s too slow for a bike.”

“... ... Is it enough to measure it with the naked eye? The archer’s body vision is really amazing.”

In the middle of that hectic 3D maneuver, you can compare the moving speed of yourself and the armored vehicle to the point where you can guess the objective speed.

The bizarreness of the physically capable people was completely different from the magician’s ability.

Evelyn smiled awkwardly and continued.

“We started a long time before them, were much faster, and almost never stopped. It’s strange that they caught up with us at that speed.”

“It’s not that there isn’t a guessing part.”

Lennok nodded.

“What if the arrival time differs depending on which bridge you choose, even if you are going to the same destination?”

“what do you mean?”

Leaving Evelyn tilting her head behind her, Lennok looked away.

“You don’t have to speak at length. Let’s cross over to a different bridge and time it.”

Saying that, Lennok took out his cell phone from his arms and picked it up.

“I think this is why they were allowed to move freely between the legs.”

The two immediately waited for a minute to pass on the bridge several meters away and returned.

“1 min. How long did that take?”

“... ... I didn’t even have to measure.”

Eveline said, looking blankly at Lennok, who had returned to the bridge.

“Because less than 10 seconds have passed here.”

Lennok nodded.

“Right. Let’s try a few more times.”

After that, Lennok and Ibelin focused on counting the time as they crossed several nearby bridges.

It wasn’t until he measured the time of the originally chosen bridge that had been restored in the meantime that Lennok was sure.

“The bridges of this space exist on different timelines. The difference is not constant and fluctuates continuously. This bridge they chose was moving faster than the bridge we chose.”

That is why the gangsters succeeded in catching up with the two men, even though they set off far behind Lennok.

Realizing the true meaning of those words, Evelyn hardened her face.

“Wait a minute and a half... ... That means... ... .”

“I bet those gangsters weren’t the next to go through the gate. It’s been a while since the second gate was breached, and other people may already be running on this bridge.”

Lennok smiled bitterly and climbed onto the bike.

“I did it by chance, but as expected, the realm of luck was right. Even if you choose a bridge with a fast timeline right now, you don’t know when the timeline of the bridge itself will change slowly... ... .”

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!

I pull the throttle of the bike in succession and run over the bridge again.

Evelyn, accustomed to getting on the back of her bike, shook her head with a slightly pale face.

“The discontinuity of space and time... ... Can a being who can realize the law by overlapping it in one space be called a human being?”

Space is fluid and time is relative.

There is no absolute reference point, and the gap can only be measured by comparing oneself to the surroundings.

Jindun succeeded in embodying the hypotheses established to understand the composition of the world in his labyrinth.

In other words, it means that Zaegis Ethernore was creating a truly independent alien realm within this labyrinth.

Is it possible to challenge ascension only by inscribing this level of task and law into one’s will?

The Labyrinth of the Ascendants, which shocks even the 7th level Superman who has completed the hierarchy after self-modification.

But Lennok slowly shook his head despite Ibelin’s words.

“It is human. I am challenging this ridiculous feat in order to be both a human and a world, not a world and a human.”

“How can you be so sure?”

“well... ... .”

Instead of answering, Lennok silently took out his telescope and placed it over the demon’s eye.

“That’s why I wasn’t careful about choosing a bridge here.”

Scenery of hundreds of bridges seen through the telescope.

Over all those bridges, the visionary figure that had been leading Lennok was projected.

Hundreds of visions of the elderly look back at Lennok, crossing the bridge one by one.

A clear will that now feels terrifying. But Lennok could sense something there.

“Let’s go all the way. Because there really isn’t much left until the end of the labyrinth.”

“By the way, is it okay if I keep taking that bike out?”

Asked Evelyn, who climbed into the seat behind the backrest and leaned against Lennok.

“That’s something I used as a class member. If anyone remembers it, it would be difficult to maintain a double status.”

“Don’t worry about that.”

clap clap clap!!

As soon as the words were finished, the bike’s outer parts rotated as if they were flipped over, drawing a completely different streamlined curve from the existing bike.

coo kung!!

“I modified it to be able to mount four custom appearances. It’s a prototype, so I couldn’t put in a lot because the capacity wasn’t large, but this should be enough for now.”

“That’s right... ... .”

Lennok turned his head and murmured while Evelyn scratched her cheek embarrassedly.

“But aren’t you wrong? Evan Bylon’s identity is so poorly constructed that he doesn’t.”

Lennok replied, jerking the throttle.

“It’s one of those identities I made relatively cheaply, not long after I arrived in this city.”

“... ... .”

“Somehow, coincidence overlapped and brought the name here, but honestly, it’s dangerous... ... It’s time to apologize to Lapis and Grisha and replace them.”

“It’s going to be difficult to easily gain the reputation of defeating a drug lord, but are you going to give up that too?”

Evelyn’s words made Lennok laugh.

“What a funny joke. You didn’t mean it, did you?”

It’s not like Lennok or Evelyn is obsessed with the fame in front of them.

Accumulating achievements in the name of Ban and quickly raising awareness was only part of finding the artifact or relic of the space-time system that Lennok wanted.

If it weren’t for that special circumstance, the fact that so many people recognized Lenok wasn’t very welcome.

What’s more, dealing with the drug lord was what he did as the flame magician ‘Weizen’ in disguise at the time.

Only a handful of people know that it was done by a wizard named Evan, and it should not spread further.

But Evelyn didn’t laugh despite Lennok’s words.

“Are you going to change the name Ban like that?”

“... ... .”

Lennok shut up.

“If you hide like that... ... It will be the end of working together like this.”

A voice mixed with deep regret. Evelyn’s expression, which turned her head, could not be seen properly.

But Lennok vaguely understood what she was talking about.

Evelyn was also aware that the name Van was also a pseudonym.
