Book 17 Chapter 15

Episode 111

“Alright, let’s enter the labyrinth~!”

Lista shouted. Rin, too, had only heard of labyrinths and had never actually visited one, so it seemed he was secretly excited.

According to Hunter Juicy’s explanation, labyrinths are generally divided into three types.

Surface type, underground type, and buried type.

A surface type is a labyrinth with a progressive structure, similar to common structures in human history, and an underground type is, as the name suggests, the structure that comes to mind when one thinks of a labyrinth.

“Be careful. This is a buried type. It’s a labyrinth with a regressive structure, formed when ancient buildings were buried underground.”

“Regressive structure?”

“You start from the top and go down to where the entrance is. Buried labyrinths are the fewest in number, but their danger level has always been Grade 1 or higher.”

From Grade 1, requests are relayed only to the top-tier Gold class in the mercenary industry.

“One wrong move and you could suffer a great mishap. Well, with a platinum 2nd ranked archer here, I suppose no further explanation is needed.”

And so, Rin took his first step towards the labyrinth, his heart full of dreams and hopes!

“Eh.”

But the moment he thought he had crossed the threshold, a hollow sensation… a feeling of gravity wrapping around his entire body enveloped him.

“Whoa, there’s no foothold? They said it was a regressive structure, so that’s what it meant.”

“Rin is a dummy~ That’s why the Hunter told you to be careful.”

“Hahahaha, leave him be. It’s not like he just became a dummy yesterday or today.”

[(ㅋㅅㅋ)\/]

Haha hoho… The companions who were laughing and scolding Rin suddenly felt something strange. Rin’s figure had disappeared from their sight.

“?”

“?”

“?”

That’s right. That crazy, mad kid was leisurely uttering such exclamations at the moment of falling.

“Ri, Rin────!”

“Kies, shoot! Grab him with a World Tree root! He’s going to fall to his death!”
