I Have Transferred to the Worst Labyrinth in Another World

63 – First Test – 1

“Kheuheu.. Who are you guys…”

“Uh… That’s… Well…”

Aloken was a warrior-like demon with the red head of a lion, burning eyes, and skin that glowed like red gold.

He was roughly 5m tall, and in his hand was a huge greatsword.

“…Looking at the energy of the sacrificed mana, you’re not a summoner.”

Alokhen’s burning eyes flashed, hot smoke billowing from his shark-like teeth.

The appearance of the devil itself, literally.

Just standing in front of it gave rise to some unknown fear.

-52 Seok Alokhen…A demon with excellent swordsmanship and at the same time steals the eyesight of the target it makes eye contact with.

‘f*ck… I don’t have a weakness or something…?’

-A demon of that level doesn’t have any weak points. You really have to take it down with pure force.

In one word, you’re saying I’ll never be able to defeat that devil…!

“…But you… It smells very familiar. A very unpleasant and ominous smell…”

“…Well…? I’m not sure, maybe it’s the smell of your philtrum..?”

“You’re arrogant when it comes to humans…”

Al Loken must have been very displeased with my comment, and he grimaced as he blew black smoke from his nose.

It was so bizarre that I almost got tired of it in an instant.

“hehehehe… I’ll have to kill you guys first.”

“..Do you think you will die easily?”

“You foolish human being, if you beg for your life even now, let it go without pain…”

At that moment, Al Loken flashed the large greatsword in his right hand.

“Become the first victim to return to the human world.”

Quaaa!

As Alokken lowered his sparkling greatsword, a large sword filled with tremendous energy flew towards me at great speed.

‘I can’t avoid this..!’

I instinctively felt it.

You can’t dodge this, and if you hit that at the same time, there’s a 100% chance you’ll fall behind.

But fortunately, I had one strong supporter.

-Night Fog.

“Hmm..?!”

The black mist created by Veronica flowed out of my shadow and blocked Alokken’s sword attack.

Aloken looked up at Veronica’s black mist that suddenly appeared and wriggled his burning eyes in surprise.

“…You bastard, how do you use that ability…!”

“Okay.”

“There is only one person in all dimensions who can use that ability!”

The ‘one’ that Aloken refers to must be Veronica, so does Aloken know something about Veronica?

-Darkness, bloom flowers.

At the time I was lost in the dark, the magic Veronica had chanted emanated from my shadow and flew toward Alokken.

Her magic used by Veronica was not the black mist she used to use, but an unusual form of magic that took over the surrounding space like drawing paper sprinkled with ink.

Looking at the amount of mana he felt, it seemed that he could instantly kill most creatures just by brushing them.

“Suck!”

However, Aloken cut down the unusual form of magic created by Veronica, a monster that couldn’t be beaten even by Veronica.

“…The characteristics of magic are obviously similar…But the power is too weak…Isn’t it…That’s it”

Aloken warned me this time, preparing for a horizontal slash.

No, to be precise, I sent a warning to Veronica hiding in my shadow.

“If you don’t come out and stop it this time, that human’s life won’t be saved, ‘Princess’.”

“…What?”

Kwagagagagagang-!!!

At that moment, as Aloken swung his greatsword horizontally, a sword that looked much more powerful than the previous attack flew towards me.

The air around it was instantly inflated no matter how much magic it contained.

-..Keugh..!

Judging that it would be difficult to block Alokhen’s attack in my shadow, Veronica came out with a low groan. Then she stopped in front of me and stretched out her hand toward the flying sword.

“Distortion!”

With Veronica’s cry, the sword energy from Aloken disappeared as if it never existed.

I don’t know what kind of magic it used, but it must be quite powerful magic, considering that it can easily block an attack of that level of power.

“…You’ve been hiding in the shadows, Princess.”

“Are you still calling me princess?”

“A name that has been imprinted for a long time does not change easily.”

‘..What the f*ck is the situation..?’

After going back and forth between life and death twice in one minute, I couldn’t understand the current situation at all.

Why is that lion’s head calling Veronica Princess, and why is Veronica accepting it?

f*ck, I really don’t even know a thing. I need something Veronica told me to understand or not understand.

“…But what is that man? Isn’t he just a weak and insignificant human being?”

“…You’d better close that mouth before it rips it out.”

“What do you think a person who is not strong enough will do? heheheuh..”

Al Loken blew black smoke out of Veronica’s nostrils as if mocking her.

“I don’t know how the princess is protecting that man, but she has no intention of fighting the former princess.”

“..I don’t have the heart to fight? Do you think such a lie will work on me?”

At that moment, Al Loken spoke to Veronica with a grotesque look on her hatred.

“Solomon, tell me where he is.”

“…..”

“If you don’t tell me, the princess will die here. That man will die too. But if you tell me where Solomon is, I’ll pass quietly.”

“Ha…! Are you asking me to believe that bullsh*t? Besides, even if you know where Solomon is, what do you think you can do?”

“That’s for me to judge. The Princess just needs to dig up Solomon’s location.”

“Shut up.”

“…You really bother me…”

At that time, Veronica, who was standing in front of me, suddenly handed me an object behind her back.

The item looked similar to a hammer commonly used at home, but the size and appearance were slightly different from ordinary hammers.

“…What is this?”

“It’s called a gavel.”

“If it’s a gavel…The hammer that judges use?”

“That’s right.”

The hammer…Or rather, the gavel that Veronica handed over was showing off its presence by scattering ominous void mana in all directions.

‘…I feel like this is the stone…?’

But looking at it now, the purple stone I found in the royal palace of Leonhard and this gavel had a very similar aura.

I don’t know why Veronica gave me this item in this situation, but it must be because she wants something from me.

“Infuse the gavel with void mana.”

“…Suddenly…?”

“Let’s do it. Let’s finish it as soon as possible so that both the king and I can live.”

I still couldn’t understand what Veronica was talking about, but I was fully aware that the situation was urgent.

It’s not like Veronica is telling me something strange on purpose, she must be saying this for a special reason.

“Do it quickly… I’ll hold on as long as I can.”

“I don’t know what you’re talking about… But I’ll get it.”

Geeing-!!

After injecting void mana into the gavel according to Veronica’s words, the gavel began to glow in the unique purple color of void mana.

“..That stuff…?!”

“Did you notice now?”

“..Do you mean to go through another tragedy? You…!”

“I have no intention of doing that.”

At that moment, my vision began to slowly reverse.

At the same time, the surrounding scenery began to change gradually, and Veronica and the lion-headed Aloken, who were right in front of them, gradually became blurry.

“Stop it right now! Are you thinking of making a case like the Duke of Bloodia!”

“…No…”

Veronica’s strangely sad voice came through the blurred vision.

“That will never happen… Never.”

***

“…What the f*ck?”

After injecting void mana into the gavel, it moved to a strange place.

The place I am currently is not a deep underground filled with stuffy air, but a beautiful flower field full of dreams and hopes.

“..It’s been a while since I’ve had a guest.”

“..Who are you…?”

A man was standing in the center of such a colorful flower garden.

A handsome man with a height of about 185 and gorgeous silver long hair.

With this kind of looks, I felt like I could kick his model in the cheek.

“The fact that you’re here means you’re a candidate to become king.”

“..King…? It’s similar, but…Where is it?”

“This is just an illusion. So your body is probably lying in its original place.”

“… On..?”

In other words, according to that man, only my mind is here… And my real body is lying where it was?

f*ck, isn’t that very dangerous? If that lion-headed baby touches my body, it becomes a gem.

No. Let’s calm down. Veronica is still there.

Since she was sent to this place, she must have deep thoughts.

“..Who are you anyway?”

“You mean me? I’m the Supreme Court Justice.”

“What…What?”

“A judge who upholds the law.”

“Ah…Well…”

…Doesn’t match at all?

A beautiful man standing in a colorful flower garden is actually a Supreme Court Justice? Where do you write third-rate romance novels?

“Anyway, it’s just a story of the past.. Now it’s just an examiner testing those who have the qualifications to be king.”

“If you’re an examiner…You’re trying to test me…?”

“That’s right. In order for you to truly become a king, you must pass the test of 11 people who hold high-ranking positions. I am one of those 11 people who hold the position of a Supreme Court judge.”

What the f*ck is this bullsh*t? What is the Supreme Court, and what is the test?

“You don’t seem to understand.”

“…Somewhat?”

“hahahaha, it’s okay if you don’t have to make your head hurt too much. To put it simply, you have to pass my test to become a real king…Something like that.”

It’s so sudden…?

You were threatened with your life by a lion-headed demon until just now, but now you have to pass the test. It’s just a f*cking rush.

“Then are you ready?”

“No, that’s…”

“Then let’s begin.”

“Wait..!”

Wait, you start like this? Really? Sincerity? No this is not so much!

“Let’s talk about people…”

“A king must be fair and cool enough to punish those who break the law.”

“No, listen to me..”

“I am also the Supreme Court judge in charge of judging crimes, so I will give you a suitable test.”

f*ck.

Listen to me please.
