“I will leave it to you.”
I chose Caesar.
“Nonsense! I think this is the perfect assassination chance! Boss, are you really going to make that idiot be a formidable enemy? Never buy and hit!”
“Huh. The boss entrusted me with the job because four years were not enough. Don’t climb on the topic of a bitch.”
Are these dogs and cats?
You really fight all the time.
“Don’t be so hot. Thomas is used to a closed life and is sickly. However, the cause is labyrinthophobia. As long as you have this, I can’t get you inside for an assassination.”
“boss. What is labyrinthophobia?”
“The only situation where we could lose our colleagues enough to make it to the B7 floor at once is an accident. A sudden and fatal danger. It’s an unusual fear of this kind of danger.”
“I do not know.”
“He is a mental illness that is always preparing for the event that dozens of armed orc warriors suddenly attack his home in the eastern district of the labyrinth city.”
Lina smiled embarrassedly.
“It’s a bit difficult. The chance of an assassination would be too low.”
“In that sense, Caesar is the right enemy for this powerful enemy.”
“I got it. I can’t help it if the boss says that.”
Worrying about being wasted by useless internal divisions disappeared.
“Go, Caesar.”
“Can I do it my way?”
“okay.”
Caesar walked away with a thick rot.
Quajiic!
I said to him kicking in the fence.
“You will fix what you broke later.”
“…All right.”
Caesar carefully stepped on the grass and approached the front door.
Then, with a bang, he kicked the front door open.
What was it that you walked carefully for!?
“Thomas!! The Grim Reaper has come to strike your neck!!”
Besides, I’m screaming out loud.
Even in a state of intoxication, the volume is enough to make one’s mind shine.
Unsurprisingly, a scream was heard from inside the large mansion.
“I have been waiting for this day to come! Labyrinth, you have finally sent a pursuer to kill me!”
The next moment, I witnessed an unbelievable sight. In close combat, Caesar, who had been engaged with the apocalyptic Priest Rubric, was thrown out of nowhere.
quagga gag!
The force was so strong that it rolled over the floor, sweeping the ground with both feet, and the length exceeded 4m.
[Unexpected Event! Runaway warrior!]
[Toma has suffered from extreme fear due to phobia of labyrinths. The moment he recognized the existence of a formidable enemy, Caesar, who was threatening his life, he judged that the labyrinth was an assassin sent to eliminate him.]
[Thomas firmly believes that by killing Caesar, he can break free from the labyrinthophobia that devastates him. He exhibits tremendous fighting power that goes beyond the limits of his body.]
[Toma enters into a fight even if he uses his mental strength if he lacks physical strength, and his vitality if he lacks mental strength. Endure him to death by exhausting all his life.]
Oh My God.
The horrific event phrase tells you to focus on survival as if there was no chance of winning from the beginning.
At first I thought it was an analysis failure of the system, but I was convinced as soon as I saw Thomas running after Caesar.
The system was right.
Thomas was not normal at first glance.
Abnormally inflated whole-body muscles, bulging blood vessels, and bright red bloodshot eyes.
A giant with a height of 1m and 90cm, with a bone like a monster, is holding a pillar instead of a weapon.
“Aaah!!”
As Thomas swung the pole, the grass in the garden, which could not withstand the wind pressure, was crushed all at once.
Seeing the remnants of the power spreading clearly, I was convinced.
The current Toma is at the level of a large monster with about 25 strength, which surpasses Caesar, who has 20 strength.
“Reena. Can you join me?”
“boss!”
Hearing my words, Caesar’s eyes flashed fiercely.
“This guy is my opponent. You cannot make concessions.”
“Are you confident?”
“This is the first time my blood boils like this. So I am more confident. If I defeat this guy, I can become even stronger.”
A system alert was triggered by Caesar’s ferocious cry.
[A junction occurs!]
[Caesar hopes for a diary with Thomas. If Ikito is established, Caesar will have to face a decisive battle with Toma, who has the strength of a large monster, alone.]
[If you survive at the end of the day and night, Caesar’s strength that has reached the level of strength will increase even more.]
The same goes for this time.
The system text only mentions ‘if it survives’.
It is proof that the chances of winning are infinitely slim.
A battle in which survival, not victory, is the only hope.
A battle with extreme difficulty.
Against Thomas, a truly formidable enemy, Caesar showed bliss.
Lina strongly objected, saying it was not even worth listening to.
“boss! At this rate, that idiot must be killed!”
“I may not die.”
“You still don’t know? He has no intention of avoiding him! He’s about to face a monster that explodes his full potential as a warrior, head-on, with all his might!”
I was at a crossroads of choice.
Caesar will be able to survive if she follows Lina’s judgment and joins her.
Instead, the favorability and loyalty of Caesar will drop sharply, and even the opportunity to grow his strength, which has reached 20, disappears. But it is not such an advantage to be put on the scales.
‘Can you believe it? Can’t believe it.’
It’s just that that’s all.
There is no time for serious thought. Labyrinth World is a game played with 10,000 gamers. There is no such thing as stopping the flow of the world just because you have a choice.
Ahead of the time gauge, which is shrinking at a tremendous rate, I made a judgment based solely on the gamer’s instinct.
“Caesar. This battle is yours.”
“boss!”
“Fight. And win.”
Contrary to Lina, who was startled by the absurdity, Caesar showed her teeth wildly and made a face.
“According to the will of the boss.”
Caesar, who had retreated with Thomas’s attack, restored the balance of his whole body to the front.
A fist digging into his arms to avoid the heavy flying pillar hit Thomas’s abdomen.
Whoa!
Despite the heavy blow, Toma swung the pillar.
Boo Woong! bang!
The pillars hit the floor and shattered.
scattered debris.
Through the thick dust, the two held each other’s hands.
A relentless grip force was applied to crush each other.
Awkward!
Clap Duck Duck!
The muscle fibers screamed stiffly, and each other’s hands clasped each other fiercely.
It was Caesar who began to push.
No matter how powerful he was, Toma’s strength was different.
‘If it is a battle of strength, there is no choice but to lose.’
The system judged that too, and I agreed with it.
In fact, Caesar is moving fast.
So I was convinced that Caesar had a chance.
I have insight.
A person without insight realizes the unknowable and faces the unseen.
I’ve uncovered a subtle truth not revealed in system notifications.
Caesar is barely surviving.
If he only pursues a power confrontation.
There was no guarantee that Caesar would be committed to power.
‘It was only Lina’s guess.’
Obviously, the system notification used the situation to blur his judgment.
He dug a clever trap to scatter trust in his subordinates.
But my faith, coolness, and insight are not so easily destroyed.
“Thomas! Can’t you hear me! The sound of your comrades howling!!”
“Wow, what are you talking about!”
“You ran away! Alone, leaving your comrades behind! Will you, who once gave up being a warrior, die as a warrior when it’s time to die? Do you think such a thing is possible?!”
Information learned during the information gathering process.
Caesar did not hesitate to use it.
This is not a fair fight.
it’s a battle fight for life It’s a life-threatening diary.
The sword is not everything in the hand. Aiming at the sword in the heart and destroying the mind of the opponent is also a true sword battle.
As long as it doesn’t violate the warrior’s beliefs, he can do anything. Even if it is an act that shakes the other person’s beliefs!
“You have already failed. The warrior’s position is in front of his comrades! You should have died before anyone else!!”
“no!!”
“Don’t let the last surviving shameful coward not discuss the warrior! The spirit of the warrior that remains within you long ago faded away! Don’t pretend to be a warrior on the subject of ashes!!”
slurp.
Tears of blood flowed from Thomas’s eyes.
A blood vessel burst over the hypertrophied muscle.
The superhuman strength he exerted to resist the overwhelming fear began to waver.
He is no longer a warrior against fear.
I became a coward from 7 years ago when I was scared and gave up on the ordeal and ran away.
“Look carefully! me in front of you! The ordeal you gave up on! The soul of a warrior you turned away from yourself!”
“Black monster! No, I can’t do this!”
“Yes! I am the monster It is despair that will devour your last remaining warrior’s soul and even your last miserable pride!!”
The balance of power, which had been in a tense confrontation since some time, began to lean on Caesar.
As he bled from his creaking body against the mighty force, Caesar did not back down.
Little by little, and then gradually, the balance was tilted firmly.
Thomas was constantly screaming and bursting with blood, his swollen muscles diminished, and he was weakened by the effects of his squeezed vitality.
Correspondingly, Caesar flashed more and more distinct light and radiated a marvelous fighting spirit.
It was as if he was getting stronger by absorbing Thomas’s vitality alive, and it was an incredible figure.
“No, that’s absurd.”
In the end, Lina, who was watching from her side, was seized with a thrill.
Caesar crushed him as if he was swallowing Thomas.
He, who was regarded as an infinitely large giant, gradually became smaller.
Thomas, who has lost his pride, is just a terrified loser.
He faced a fate he had long turned away from.
The warrior is dead.
he finally realized He is a dreamer, not a warrior.
“Ahhh…”
Thomas shrunk like a mummy in an instant.
Caesar squashed his dry arms and lifted his weak body.
He slammed Toma’s shabby body to the ground with all his might.
Pagak!
Thomas was horribly crushed, both bones and flesh smashed.
Who can think of the end of it?
That he was the possessor of a mighty force that at least once overpowered Caesar.
[Caesar shattered Thomas!]
[Caesar’s strength increases by 1.]
[Caesar learns the extended ability fighting spirit.]
Caesar denied Thomas’s pride from the ground up, trampling it down and destroying it.
The moment he faced the fear he had been ignoring for a long time, Thomas lost all his stamina and mental strength.
Toma, who had lost the resources of physical and mental strength, was left with only vitality, and Caesar exhausted Toma’s vitality with his huge force and crushed the opponent into a mummy.
‘It’s the slayer itself.’
Those who do not even have the courage to fight are killed in an instant.
A loser who missed a place to die could not be an opponent.
That is why Caesar was not afraid to face the mighty.
“Wow!”
The boiling fighting spirit and the joy of victory led to a roar.
It was a roar like the roar of a huge beast.
The reason why he was certain of victory without being swayed by the delusion of the system.
There can be no such thing otherwise.
Because after all, my subordinates are insanely competent.
