Skretil's Ignorance Walker

"This...is the corridor again?"

After pushing open the door, what everyone saw was a corridor with no end in sight.

There is no other way, only this way to the end, but everyone present knows that it is never that simple.

"That old guy likes to do all kinds of things."

Ovis began to complain again, but this time he did not act impulsively. Instead, he gently tried the floor in front of him, and only took a step forward with peace of mind after making sure that it would not fall again.

"Is there any explanation here?"

Amy did not follow Ovis and walked forward directly. She saw Isha stopping there and thinking, so she also waited beside Isha.

"Ovis, wait a minute!"

Liz also wanted to wait for Isa to move first, but at this time Orvis had already taken several steps out, so Liz had no choice but to follow.

"Huh? Orvis? Orvis, are you there?"

However, just as Liz stepped into the corridor, she suddenly discovered that Orvis was no longer within her sight. He turned his head in surprise, and Isa and Amy who were originally behind him had disappeared.

"Is this...an illusion?"

Although Liz was panicking, she still forced herself to calm down and think carefully about countermeasures.

After all, I have only taken two steps forward, so why not just go back?

Just as Liz was thinking this, she discovered that no matter how backward she walked, she could not reach the end, as if she was trapped in an endless dark space.

"No way...this is just an illusion, I can't be fooled..."

Shaking her head, Liz continued to walk forward, but no matter how long she walked, the surrounding scenery remained the same darkness. No matter how she called, no one responded to her.

"Ovis! Answer me, please? Lady Isa?"

After walking for a long time, Liz was a little tired. She squatted down sadly, wanting to rest where she was for a while.

There is no mistaking that this is Drust's castle, but what kind of magic did he have to become like this? And how should I get out?

Looking around, she couldn't see anything. Neither space nor time seemed to exist here. Now Liz was in trouble.

"...Hmm, in that case, don't blame me for being rude!"

With no other solution, Liz revealed her weapon and began to attack the ground.

She inserted the sword into the ground, and then began to inject magic to destroy it directly.

What Liz didn't expect was that the effect was surprisingly good. The surrounding darkness began to slowly fade away, and dim light and new scenery began to appear around her.

"here it is……"

However, before Liz could be happy for long, she discovered that this place had turned into a maze, with various roads leading in all directions, and she had no idea where she was now.

"why is it like this……"

Looking at the countless roads around her, Liz had no choice but to find a random direction and walk forward. However, just like before, no matter how long she walked, she was still in this maze, looking everywhere. They all had the same scenery, which made Liz wonder if she was staying in the same place.

"This is how to do ah……"

Liz sighed, then leaned against a wall and began to sit on the ground to rest. She didn't know how long she had been walking, but Liz felt that she was very tired now. It would be great if Ovis was by her side.

"Where has everyone... gone?"

Liz crossed her legs and began to think back to the time at home, when she and Orvis were together every day. Until one day, the family received an invitation from Drews. As the descendants of the original team members, she and Ovis were naturally invited here, hoping to receive Drews' treasure.

Although only one person can get this treasure, in Liz's heart, no matter who gets it, she and Ovis are the same, and there is no need to compete with him. But it's different now. It's not just the two of them who come here, there's also Isa and an outsider. Although their abilities are not as good as theirs, Liz and Ovis both agree that they do not want this secret treasure to fall into the hands of others.

When they first learned about this situation, the two of them discussed countermeasures, but when they faced the reality, they realized that they didn't seem to have any advantage. Even now, they couldn't even get out of the maze in front of them. How could they do this? Competing with others for treasure?

"If I have enough power, I might be able to destroy this wall directly."

Liz thought this way. She also tried to destroy the wall directly, but in the face of her attack, the wall in front of her didn't move at all. Her power is simply too weak.

"……Um?"

But just when Liz was helpless against the wall in front of her, she suddenly heard a strange sound coming from behind the wall, as if... the sound of something being destroyed?

In the next second, the wall in front of Liz was directly destroyed, and huge stone bricks were thrown at Liz. Fortunately, she reacted quickly enough and was able to barely avoid these bricks.

"Are you... Lady Isa?"

When the dust cleared, Liz saw that it was Isa and Amy standing behind the wall, and Ovis, whom Liz had longed for, was being carried by Isa and seemed to have passed out.

"you……"

"Let's talk later. Follow me first."

Liz was about to ask Isa a question, but was interrupted by Isa. She signaled Liz to get out of the way, and then used huge force to punch through the wall behind Liz, and then motioned for everyone to follow her steps.

"Are we going to go out directly?"

Liz, who was following Isa, asked Amy, but Amy shook her head.

"According to Lady Isa, we can only get out by destroying the core of the maze. Otherwise, we won't be able to get out no matter what."

Hearing Amy's words, Liz nodded. She could only follow Isa now.

"The wall at the back, has it been repaired?"

When Liz turned back inadvertently, she suddenly discovered that the wall behind them had been completely restored. It seemed that, as Isa said, they had to find the core of this maze.

"It should be... over here."

Isha, who was moving forward to destroy the wall, suddenly stopped somewhere, then changed direction and continued to break the wall.

"How did Lady Isa know where to go?"

"There are marks on the wall."

After hearing Isa's words, both Amy and Liz began to observe the wall carefully, but did not find any difference. Just when they were confused, Isa stopped.

"Look, this is the mark."

After hearing Isa's words, the two of them hurriedly moved forward to observe, and sure enough they found a small dark red texture on a stone brick. If you didn't look carefully, you really couldn't see it.

As Isa smashed it open, a small room appeared behind the wall, and a small cube was placed on a small pillar in the center of the room.

"That's the end of it."

Isa stepped forward to destroy it, and as the core was destroyed, the surrounding scenery changed again. Countless walls disappeared, and everyone was standing in a room, with nothing around but the core of the maze in the middle.

"Is it all an illusion?"

Liz was very surprised. If the darkness at the beginning was an illusion, she could imagine it, but she didn't expect that even the maze behind was an illusion. From the moment they stepped into this room, they had already entered this... In the illusion created by the core.

"Huh? What's wrong? What happened?"

As the hallucination was dispelled, Isa also threw Ovis off her shoulders. Perhaps it was the pain that woke him up, but at this time he stood up unsteadily and looked at everything around him without knowing why.

"Okay, it's time to enter the next room."

Ignoring Ovis's confusion, Isha walked directly to the next room.
