#977. You will die here
* * *
[Hahahaha.]
Labyrinth of stars.
A labyrinth of starlight created in the gaps of time and space.
Since there are no spatial limitations, it is vast enough to accommodate dozens of galaxies, yet it is full of traps that can destroy an entire star.
It was to the extent that everyone acknowledged that even a monarch-level constellation would find it impossible to escape once it fell into the labyrinth of stars.
So it was.
A place wrapped in starlight.
The reason why Labyrinth exploded with light in his own constellation, which could be said to be the nucleus of this planet’s labyrinth.
[Keukkeu move, move! move! Struggling as much as you struggle, Limon Aspelder!]
Millions of years ago.
Or hundreds of millions of years ago.
How long ago had it been that he had landed here in a descending state, trapped in a human body.
Labyrinth didn’t remember.
In this space-time gap where even the concept of time, which should be absolute, is ignored, a second could have been hundreds of millions of years or even a few hundred years.
What is certain is that even the Constellations have spent such a distant time.
Even more so for humans.
The spirit of Labyrinth, a human who was mixed with him, had long since collapsed.
what was the name
Why did you join the Liberation Brigade?
Who else was the ghost.
To the point where I can’t even remember such trivial things anymore.
However, even in the memories of Labyrinth, which had been engulfed in madness and oblivion, there were still a few things that remained clear.
The culprit who plunged himself into this despair.
Memories and vengeance toward the seven princesses of the Seven Dragons or the last sword master.
It was thanks to that tenacity that he was able to gather starlight for a long time to create this labyrinth of stars.
So at this moment.
Labyrinth felt the joy.
The fact that he could put an end to Limon with the labyrinth he had worked so hard on for an infinite amount of time.
[You will surely die here!]
I wouldn’t know if it was an ordinary dungeon.
This stellar labyrinth is already his constellation itself.
Hundreds of constellations, including even monarch-level constellations, moved their own constellations and formed the axis of the labyrinth, further strengthening their power.
Either the Sword Master.
Whether it’s the legacy of the fairies.
It is absolutely impossible to get out of here.
Without doubting that fact, Labyrinth was delighted to see the streamlined ship starting to move.
[Hmm, it would have been easier for both of us if they had just been engrossed and then broken. It doesn’t end that easily.]
[Don’t talk nonsense! How long have I been waiting for this day to finish it easily?]
[No, that’s what I mean.]
A constellation in the shape of a boy.
‘The prankster playing with fate’ shrugged his shoulders when he saw Labyrinth screaming like a fit.
Of course, normally, he would have responded with a very serious prank at the rudeness that the Grand Procurator or something raised his voice at him.
But the joke is also situational.
Now we have to deal with Limon.
I couldn’t play a joke on Labyrinth, the heart of this planet’s labyrinth and also the manager.
As he is lending his strength to other constellations, he doesn’t have the confidence to easily fool Labyrinth in the labyrinth of stars right now.
That’s why when the prankster decides to return the prank a few times later instead.
The merciful Guardian of Resurrection, a constellation resembling an angel, asked quietly.
[Labyrinth. Can I just watch him like this when he’s moving?]
[Why? Did you even want to help the swordsmith because you were overflowing with compassion?]
[It means to be sure.]
The benevolent Guardian of Resurrection calmly accepted the prankster’s joke.
Then, looking at Labyrinth with gentle but unwavering eyes, he solemnly continued.
[I wanted to appease him if possible, but since compromise is impossible, he must be defeated at any cost.] [The
hypocrisy guard he always wore was showing his sincerity.] [
It’s not what I hoped for. It’s just to prevent more pitiful sacrifices from happening.]
The Guardian did not lose his composure despite the crow’s sarcastic remarks.
Hardliners.
be moderate.
Although the path they are pursuing is different, their final purpose is to prevent the apocalypse and save the world.
Of course, there were Constellations that were more interested in collecting ashes in the process than salvation, like the watchmen of the rolling cycle of reincarnation.
But they are also saviors in the end.
It was a barrier that prevented the apocalypse.
It was also necessary because the salvation of the world was getting closer as their power grew stronger.
In that sense, losing hundreds of constellations to Limon was a pity, leaving the faction behind.
All the more in that we don’t know how many worlds have been sacrificed before those hundreds of constellations were born, and it may take tens of billions of years to fill the void.
That’s why I couldn’t leave Limon any longer.
As long as Limon is alive.
He will continue to fight the Constellation.
Because the end of the world is near
Labyrinth, whether aware of the guardian’s concern or not, confidently burst into madness.
[Hahaha, don’t worry, don’t worry. It’s impossible to escape my labyrinth even if it’s not the swordsmith, but the sword emperor.]
[Yes?]
[Yes!]
No matter how complicated it is.
In the physical labyrinth, there is always a direction in which you can move.
Even in the three-dimensional labyrinth, where the upper and lower floors are connected by stairs, holes, and ladders, the answer is decided in the end.
However, the labyrinth of stars was different.
This is a space-time gap.
It is a four-dimensional space in which distance, direction, and speed become a fork in themselves.
Even if you go in the same direction, you can fall in the middle of the sun or be swallowed by a black hole with just a slight change in speed.
This meant finding the right answer among hundreds and thousands of options at every moment.
Even if the answer is long, several hours.
If it’s short, it changes in seconds.
Labyrinth was able to assert.
[That guy will be ruined soon enough, right? So, we just have to wait and see how it will be ruined hahahaha!]
[Hmm, is that so?]
Hearing that.
The prankster tilted his head.
Then he asked again with a slightly strange face.
[But aren’t they passing through the dungeon in a cool way for that?]
[It’s only now! It’s just that I’m lucky and I’m still safe. I’m going to fall into a trap soon!]
[No, so when is that? According to you, shouldn’t they have taken the wrong path and landed in the wrong place long ago?]
[That’s…!]
Labyrinth distorted at the prankster’s point.
In fact, considering the structure of the star labyrinth, it was obviously strange that the Santa Maria was still intact.
It was then.
The Guardian, who hardened his face, added a word.
[Rather than that, Labyrinth, are they really trying to escape the dungeon?]
[…What does that mean?]
[I don’t know exactly since it’s inside your labyrinth, but to me it looks like they’re getting closer rather than moving away.]
[ …!!!]
Labyrinth widened her eyes.
Because that’s when I realized.
It’s just that the creator didn’t notice it because of the complicated structure of the labyrinth of stars.
The fact that the Santa Maria is flying in a mysterious direction, the shortest course toward the core of the labyrinth where they are.
[How the hell…!]
Labyrinth couldn’t believe it.
The power contained in the labyrinth of stars is absolute.
Limon was the target from the beginning, so even the Sword Master made thorough preparations so that even the Sword Master could not find the way, let alone destroy it.
Like laughing at that confidence.
The appearance of the Santa Maria leisurely crossing the dungeon shocked Labyrinth.
[■Wouldn’t the crazy star ■give enormous support to help you complete the labyrinth ■would you just wait and see them coming?] [It’s too noisy
! Do you think my labyrinth will end just like this?]
Ku-gu-gu-gu-gu!
I was lost for a while.
The moment when Labyrinth, whose face was distorted ugly by the crow’s rebuke, drew strength.
The starlight fluctuates.
A change has happened.
The already complex structure of the labyrinth was mixed in a more difficult way, and countless lights and shadows poured out from the constellations that formed each axis.
A whale with 36 eyes, huge enough to swallow the moon, and hundreds of sharks circling around it.
Even though they were a little bigger than a fist, there were immeasurably many bugs that could cover an entire planet.
A gigantic evil spirit that wriggles like mist and catches even passing meteors with countless tentacles.
Such as the hideous machine monsters that are not unified at all even though they are made entirely of parts and metal.
they are watchmen.
Originally, they were absolute self-class monsters that could not be compared to mere monsters created by constellations to protect their constellations.
The sight of such sentinels filling the dungeon and flocking to it is truly a nightmare.
Even the Transcendental Constellation would have fled in panic.
But the Santa Maria, too small for the monsters, never backed down.
It just went on without any hesitation.
So, the moment when countless monsters tried to devour the Santa Maria.

with a roar
There was a hole in the middle of the army of monsters that surged like waves.
For a moment, I couldn’t believe my eyes at the absurd power that blew away dozens of absolute self-class monsters that I couldn’t believe were the guns of that small ship.
After a while, the gun’s true identity.
In other words, when Labyrinth saw the gray-haired man standing tall on the hull of the Santa Maria, he groaned involuntarily.
[That crazy swordsman…!]
It’s not a constellation or a monster.
It’s not just that humans and the like come out naked in this gap of time and space.
It took a while to grind my teeth while watching as the lightsaber deflected shells the size of a body and pierced a hole in the middle of the waves of monsters one after another.
Labyrinth suddenly felt a sense of incongruity.
‘Wait a minute, if the swordsman is over there, who the hell is piloting that ship?’
Of course, he brilliantly avoids the attacks of the monsters.
Even in the more complex labyrinth, the Santa Maria is still flying toward the nuclear core at a terrifying speed instead of wandering.
The moment when I looked into the bridge with authority to know the identity of the movement that I couldn’t believe it was automatic pilot.
Labyrinth widened her eyes.
It wasn’t just because of the strange energy swirling around the bridge.
It was because the half-man, half-bird sitting in the cockpit was so familiar.
[That damn bluebird bitch!!!]
The distant past.
Labyrinth went berserk when he saw the blue bird, which had helped to make the Gold Dragon Princess, whom he had almost captured, run away, and eventually led to his own destruction.
It was because the Constellation’s intuition told them.
how else is that possible
I don’t know why.
However, the reason why the Santa Maria was able to fly freely through its own labyrinth was that it was in the blue bird, not in Limon.
Thanks to that, Labyrinth, who had been interrupted twice in her life’s work, would have rolled her eyes.
[Relax!]
[Hey hey! That’s coming!]
[■■■■■!!!]
[…!]
But that was a mistake.
Because he lost his composure, the movements of the monsters became confused and the movement of the dungeon was disturbed.
As if the Santa Maria had been waiting for this moment, it rapidly accelerated and narrowed the distance in an instant.
[Stop it!]
Labyrinth, who came to his senses only belatedly, desperately tried to block the approach of the Santa Maria by moving the monsters and erecting barriers.
But he was too late.
The Santa Maria, which escaped the monsters like a beam of light, was already right in front of them.
Thus, the moment when the Santa Maria crashed head-on into the final barrier that protects the nucleus of the dungeon and the constellation of Labyrinth.

A meteor that pierced everything with the power of absolute defense fell on the heads of the constellations, including Labyrinth.
