update icon Updated at 2025/12/11 17:00:02

"It seems that there are more powerful organizations hiding besides us. It's not simple."

Ms. Mary, who was behind, walked over and stared at the fake Princess Anne, asking.

Speaking of which, Ms. Mary is a member of the "Thane's Gate". Although I don't know what position she holds, she is definitely a member of the organization of people from another world.

And the "Snake Eyes" on this side too, that's why Ms. Mary said the words 'besides them.'

"Speaking of which, we forgot to greet the people from the 'Thane's Gate'. After all, this place was occupied by you first."

"Good to know! Geez, what are you guys planning anyway? Are you crazy, interfering with the original forces here like this?"

"We have no choice. After all, these are the orders from above. We don't even know what they want to do."

The other person shrugged.

"By the way, you guys probably don't have a non-interference system, so let me introduce myself."

The other person placed their right hand on their left arm and extended three fingers from their left hand, smiling.

"My name is Ari Kristina, the Executor of Snake Eyes, Number 47 of the Sin-Criminals. Nice to meet you."

"Well, as a terrorist organization, you guys even designed a pose like Jojo. You're quite dedicated."

"Ah, you think so too? I've complained to my superiors many times about that, but they say it's the only way to stand out."

Is it really okay for you to criticize your own organization like that?

"Alright, we understand. In any case, first take us away from here."

"Alright."

"Is that okay?"

Bai Yueguang walked over and said.

"She has caused quite a bit of trouble."

"Just think about it yourself. We all understand that even if we kill each other, they will just revive from somewhere else. And now they have offered to take us away from here, isn't that a good thing?"

"You make a good point!"

Bai Yueguang suddenly realized and said.

"What are you guys talking about?"

Turning our heads, Princess Cher and the others next to us were looking at us strangely. But when we mentioned the crucial words just now, we deliberately lowered our voices so even if they heard, they wouldn't have heard clearly.

"In other words, this Miss Kristina disguised herself as Princess Anne and entered our academy. Now she is trapped in the labyrinth with us, but she can lead us out."

"Huh? Why did she disguise herself as Princess Anne?"

"Because the current situation in the academy was caused by her and her companions."

"What?"

Klein looked at Kristina in astonishment.

"Then why did we..."

"Don't be ridiculous. This guy is an illusionist, an illusionist. Ask Princess Cher over there what they are capable of, I think she understands it the best, right?"

"Uh... an illusionist? I see. I can understand now. If it's them..."

Looking at the pensive look of Princess Cher, Madam Duomi, who was about to say something just now, thought for a moment and decided to shut her mouth. Most likely, she realized that her question was not productive.

But I'm really curious about the girl who came with Taishi Xi, wearing a plant-themed magic robe, with no visible face, and I have no idea what kind of person she is.

And Taishi Xi doesn't seem to have any intention of introducing her... There's a feeling that there's a hidden character.

"In conclusion, does everyone agree?"

I looked at the crowd, and everyone silently shook their heads.

"Alright then, Miss Christina, it's up to you."

"Okay, okay~ After this, there are still many things I want to consult with all of you, so let's work together and be happy."

With a graceful turn, the other person walked towards a wall.

"Yes, this should be it."

After saying that, she took out something that looked like a pen and drew a circle on the wall.

Then there was a sound, as if something was corroding, and a hole was corroded in the wall where she drew the circle.

"What... is this magical thing?"

I looked at her in astonishment and asked.

"Just a regular corrosive agent, nothing to be amazed about."

The other person looked very casual.

"As long as we figure out the composition of these metals, making a corresponding corrosive agent is not difficult, right?"

"That's true..."

"Alright, come in quickly."

After saying that, the other person took the lead and walked into the hole.

I smiled bitterly and followed behind.

However, after entering the hole, I realized that it wasn't another passage or room, but rather a crawl space.

In other words, it was the kind of crawl space used to hold electrical wires and other things like that.

"The passage here is quite wide, probably for maintenance personnel to easily access."

Christina muttered to herself.

"I see, so it's safer to walk inside than outside."

"Don't be so sure, after all, the monsters that fought against you all came in and out through this passage."

"That's really not good in various ways."

Unfortunately, it's not the time for bitter smiles or complaints anymore, as we were still waiting to escape from this broken place.

"Well, next we'll climb up from here."

"Huh?"

Suddenly, the other person stopped and patted a nearby compartment.

Then with a loud sound, a ladder slid down from above, and looking up, it seemed... endless!

"Are you joking with me!?"

"No, it'll probably take about half an hour to climb up. I've climbed it myself."

...Can you fly me up instead?
