After ensuring that everyone had descended the stairs, I followed suit.

I defeated 10 minotaurs but it didnt look like the numbers decreased at all. The number of reinforcements surpassed it.

Furthermore, there were minotaurs approaching from the opposite direction so I would suffer a pincer attack if I had remained there.

I quickly descended the stairs.

Wait, the minotaurs are chasing me down the stairs!

Seriously? Even though labyrinth monsters usually dont move to different floors no, this just shows how potent Carols ability is.

Stepping onto the 25th floor, it was a wide room with a boss room at the back.

Everyone, enter the boss room! Slash!

I aimed for the right foot of the minotaur behind me and released a Slash.

The minotaur that lost its right foot collapsed in the middle of the stairs, blocking the path of the minotaurs behind.

With Haru and Sebastan in the lead, Oregeru and Carol followed behind and entered the boss room.

Then, the boss room began to close.

Make ittttt!

I slipped through the closing door with a dive.

It was by the distance of a hair, my mantle would have definitely been caught by the door if I had worn a mantle.

With this, the minotaurs wont be able to chase us eh?

The boss is a minotaur as well?

Within the room with a high ceiling, there was a 5 meter tall golden furred huge minotaur.

It snorted wildly as it looked toward here no, rather than toward here, it looked downward toward Carol.

Carols skill is effective toward this guy as well?

Its a King Minotaur.

Is it strong?

Yes.

Then, Ill defeat it the boss room wont open even if we defeat it right?

Yes, unless we open the door from within, the door will not open until the time for the boss to reappear. Its a system where, at that time, if all the members leave the boss room, tentatively close the door and reopen it, the boss will be there again.

So its a mechanism that disallows a monopoly of the boss by remaining inside.

Or rather, its about time I defeat the boss so that I can catch my breath in peace.

Ive been fighting all the way so Ive most likely accumulated quite a lot of experience points.

I believe Ill be able to somehow deal with the minotaur horde if I become stronger.

Nevertheless, since just now, Oregeru have been glaring at me all the time I guess the fact that Im Harus owner has been exposed.

Looks like therell be trouble even if we escape from the labyrinth.

Nevertheless, for now, I should defeat the King Minotaur.

Firstly, Ill put some distance between me and the others before I attack it happened while I was having that thought.

Oregeru rushed the King Minotaur on his own.

Wielding the bladeless gold sword.

Ready yourself, King Minotaur! I, Oregeru Robutti, heir to/eldest son of Sir Eric Robutti of the Kingdom of Arundel, will be your opponent!

That shitty idiotic aristocrat! What is he thinking!?

Oregerus sword struck the King Minotaurs weak point, its shin it didnt pierce or slash, it merely struck.

Even though it was its weak point. The King Minotaur glared at Oregeru and swung the huge axe that it was wielding toward Oregeru.

Oregeru-sama!

Despite his leg injury, Sebastan moved at an unimaginable speed to stand in front of Oregeru and received the axe with his back.

Sebastan!

Oregeru called the name of his butler but Sebastan did not reply.

Even if he lives, it is clearly a severe injury.

Intending to deal the final blow to the 2 of them, the King Minotaur once again raised its axe.

Slash!

My Slash struck the King Minotaurs arm, preventing the follow-up attack. Blood was overflowing from the King Minotaurs arm.

Well have to quickly treat Ill conclude the battle now!

I made a large leap from the side and sent out a kick at full strength toward its temporal region.

The gigantic body of the King Minotaur collapsed sideways.

Then, I pulled out a sword from my item bag and used it to pierce the neck of the King Minotaur.

A lot of it piqued my interest but as of now, Sebastans treatment takes precedence.

Sebastan, Sebastan, hang in there!

Oregeru was shaking Sebastans body but that would cause his condition to worsen!

Move, Ill treat him! Petite Heal!

After sending Oregeru flying, I changed my jobs to Jobless, Apprentice Magician, Magician, Apprentice Alchemist and Apprentice Practitioner, jobs with high magic defence and began treatment.

The wound gradually sealed but Sebastans complexion was pale.

Even though its a game-like world, its not a game so just sealing the wound wont make everything okay.

He clearly lacks blood.

Weve got to take him to the hospital for blood transfusion

But, how?

Who will carry Sebastan?

If Haru or I carry him, the combat personnel will be reduced. I dont know if we will be able to escape if we do so.

Carol will be the decoy. Everyone, please escape when Carol attracts the monsters away. (Carol)

I guess thats the only option. With Carols ability, the monsters shouldnt attack her.

If thats the case, after we escape separately

no.

But, Oregeru said that.

With the Temptress skill, the Temptress will not be attacked thats because the monsters view the Temptress as an attractive opposite sex. In the beginning, the monsters will encircle her, followed by courtship. Then, ultimately, the monsters will attack her If this was above ground, the sun would rise before that could happen but this is a labyrinth, before she can escape to the surface, she would be dragged to their den.

Then, how about if Carol and I escape first? If we do so hmm?

I looked toward the back of the boss room.

There was a door.

Hey, thats the room where the Goddess statue lies right?

I asked to confirm before continuing.

I sense the presence of 3 individuals is there somebody else here?

That cant be. If theres somebody in the Goddess room, the boss wont appear.

But, theres clearly 3 presences. Perhaps, theres another entrance? If thats the case, we might be able to escape from there

I held on to a sliver of hope, but, while remaining vigilant, the door to the Goddess statue opened.

The ones there were

Why the heck are you all here.

The individuals there were Jofre and Elise, as well as the donkey they purchased.

The 2 people and 1 animal were carefreely dozing off in front of the Goddess statue.

Even though theres no other entrance to the Goddess statue room they, why no, how did they come here?

At the very least, they shouldnt be a match for a King Minotaur.
