The System of the Immortal
The Labyrinth of The Death VIII
"Something is strange..." Wyvern said inwardly, then continued after successfully examining the Mana of all those humans, "There is only one person whose Mana Circle is at the tenth level, while the rest is below that."
"Is there a powerful Witch in disguise? But it was impossible, even though the Witch had a Mana Circle higher than me, I could definitely feel it even though she had tried to hide it. Even if for example there were Pneyihiris who could do it without my due care, Master who had observed them from the beginning would have warned me before I went here."
Wyvern was silent for quite a while and tried to think of all the possibilities he had thought of.
On the other hand, Tiger fell down sitting with hunting breath while Merlin was still staring warily at Wyvern who was far in front of him.
"You guys... Are you guys all right?" Gwen immediately asked after arriving at the place of the two of them, the look on her face looked worried-and it was more shown to Merlin.
"Yes, we're fine." Merlin replied without taking his eyes off.
"We're lucky, that Wyvern just suddenly stopped his attack for no apparent reason." Tiger added.
Gwen did not say anything and her eyes looked at Wyvern who was still silent in his place, "He is very strong, most likely his Mana Circle is above all of us."
"I agree." Merlin nodded slowly, then said calmly, "It seems like we should retreat for a while, we should think of a mature plan first."
"There's no way Wyvern's gonna ignore us" Tiger said quickly, and immediately overpowered him, "We've all run out of Mana, I've been hurt - and so did Merlin. Yuna is also impossible to cure us considering most of her Mana is already spent on detection magic."
Gwen was silent for a moment and her countenance was so serious, all Tiger's words were true - they could not escape from the Wyvern and also defeating him was something difficult to do.
"It looks like I'm gonna have to get Kerberos out, even though I don't know her powers for sure - but I'm sure she's stronger than that Wyvern." Merlin said, and was about to open a portal of his dimension.
But Merlin's intention was instantly undone when the Wyvern raised its wings and began flying into the sky.
"Tsk, I need to get him out of here." Merlin clucked in annoyance and began to prepare, but Gwen raised her hand as if to signal a stop, "What's wrong?"
When Merlin asked that, Gwen pointed up at the blue sky that Wyvern no longer had.
"He's... Blurred." said Gwen, her tone sounded doubtful.
"What...?" Tiger and Merlin said at the same time, they were both shocked and confused.
"Seeing he stopped his attack at the last moment, there were two possibilities at hand." Gwen calmed herself down and tried to guess what happened, "First of all, she had run out of Mana and returned to recover it. Second, he deliberately left because he wanted to let us all live and console him back in the next battle."
Bam!
Tiger hit the labyrinth floor to the point of cracking, he gritted his teeth and got up to his feet, "The bastard is underestimating us, I will kill him with my own hands."
Tiger walked away to the entourage after speaking so, he felt very angry that he had been underestimated. Death is far better than being treated that way.
Gwen simply stared at Tiger in silence, while Merlin kept his sword back in Soul Storage and then stepped away from there.
"Better we rest and restore our Mana back." Merlin said, without looking back.
Gwen nodded slowly and followed Merlin from behind, she looked up at the sky before exhaling her breath from the mouth, "Is a fourth-rate Dungeon indeed this difficult?" Gwen muttered as she closed her eyes slowly.
......................
"Is he really the boss of the Dungeon?" Yohan who had heard the situation earlier immediately asked.
The atmosphere was silent for a moment when Yohan asked that, until Gwen finally replied after thinking about it for a while, "Most likely, yes. Since this was a level four Dungeon, it felt impossible that he wasn't the boss."
"Oh, yeah." Yohan nodded seriously, then said, "In the next fight, I better participate. We might be able to defeat him if we work well together."
"But, what about us?" Yuna raised her one hand, her countenance looking agitated, "If that Wyvern changes targets and intends to finish off weak people like me first, then doing so is not something that is difficult for her."
"Yuna's right, their lives could be threatened if you're not in the back row." Gwen confirmed the blond woman's words.
"Just relax, we just need to finish him off before changing his target." Yohan responded as she folded her hands together in front of her chest, her tone sounding very confident.
"You think it'll be that easy? He was extremely strong, defeating him quickly was something that sounded impossible." Tiger replied to him indifferently.
"Hm, aren't you sure? Tiger, did you become insecure after failing to kill him?" Yohan asked in a mocking-sounding tone.
"uh? What did you say!?" Tiger gave off an aura of intimidation, and made the labyrinth floor he was on crack.
"You deaf or what? Should I repeat my words?" Yohan again asked without changing her mocking tone.
"That son of a bitch, for one who is just observing from afar-dare to act arrogant?!" Tiger stepped closer to Yohan and was about to beat her up, but Merlin stood between the two of them while putting on a cold face.
"You're not thinking about fighting in this situation right now, are you?" Merlin asked, although his voice was quite small but could be heard by all the members of the group who were there.
"I want to hit that loser! How dare he ridicule me when he himself did nothing in that fight!" Tiger cursed loudly while glaring at Yohan.
Yohan herself chuckled slightly before replying, "Not doing anything? Then, what do you think I'm doing by waiting in the back row? It's funny."
"What?! Shall I kick you?!" Tiger hardened his muscles while clenching both of his hands.
"Stop..." Gwen said once, but not heard by either of them, "Call stop!"
Whooos!
A bright blue cold aura seeped out from Gwen's body and made everyone who was there freeze.
"Stop fighting like a child and from now on listen to me. No complaints or anything, okay?!" Gwen asked, and got a nod from Yohan as well as Tiger
Seeing those who had calmed down enough, Gwen retracted her aura. The atmosphere there became silent, the cold traces released by the blue-haired woman were still there and had not disappeared in the slightest.
"Slow down movement, huh? He's talented at using the ice element." Fang Lin who was observing him silently- said inwardly, it was fortunate that he did not make any sudden movements when it was going on, "By the way, it's almost night, huh. Doesn't feel..."
Fang Lin was able to find the sky that had already turned into a golden orange, "It seems that Wyvern had already reported a strange thing just now on the figure who had been observing us from outside this magic formation. Maybe in a minute, he'll step in."
