Comprehensive Manga: The Master is not here today.

"Fujimaru Ritsuka?"

Hearing this name that was quite Japanese, Maizuru looked at her with a more serious look and asked:

"Are you from the island too?"

However, looking at the orange hair on the other person's head that looked like a burning flame, Wu He's face showed some doubts again. The people from the Isleta all had black hair, and she had never seen any Isleta with such a fancy hair color.

Could it be that the child was born from the union of the islanders and people from other places?

In short, upon hearing the name of this fellow countryman, Maizuru's gaze towards Fujimaru Ritsuka immediately softened.

At this moment, Mazuimu, who had just left, came back and attracted Wuhe's attention.

"Master is awake."

"!!!"

……

...

"Um..."

Julang was moved to the bedroom where Laos and his family had lived before. Laos and Falin were guarding him at this time. When they saw him open his eyes in a daze, Laos said in surprise:

"Jiulang, you're awake. Are you okay?"

"Yeah... I'm fine..."

The first thing Kikuro saw when he woke up was Laos's face, which made him feel unhappy.

He subconsciously moved his gaze and noticed that Falin was also beside him, looking at him worriedly. Only then did he finally feel relieved again.

It’s not a dream… So good…

“Master——!!”

The next moment, Wu He's figure filled his entire field of vision, and the other party said worriedly:

"Master, you must be hungry, right? Please hold on a little longer, the meal will be ready soon!"

"I'm fine……"

Kikuro was trying to get up with difficulty, and seeing this, although Maizuru was very worried, she still carefully helped him to stand up.

He nodded to Wu He, then looked at Laos and Falin beside him, and said apologetically with a weak face:

"I apologize for leaving the team."

"But, when I didn't find Falin on the ground, I thought that this was the only way to return to the labyrinth and save her, so I left without saying goodbye to you. I'm sorry."

Laos smiled and said:

"It doesn't matter. The result is good, isn't it?"

"I am also very grateful to Mr. Kikuro."

Falin, who was standing by, also expressed her gratitude with a smile, then changed the subject and rebuked in a gentle tone:

"But it's not okay to force yourself to do this regardless of your physical condition. I'd be even more sad if something happened to you guys."

"Well, I'm sorry. I will pay more attention next time."

Ju Lang's attitude became even more awkward. He scratched his head embarrassedly, his cheeks slightly red.

Seeing this, Wu He at the side gave a look of 'no hope' and sighed deeply again. Then, Kikuro said:

"Maizuru, let's eat."

"! Please wait, the food will be ready soon--!"

Maizuru was refreshed, and left the bedroom at the speed of light to urge the family to cook. Kabul and Fujimaru Ritsuka, who were standing at the door, looked at each other's departing backs in shame. Then, Kabul looked at Kikuro again and said:

"Mr. Julang, are you okay?"

"Well, thank you for your concern."

Laos also said:

"By the way, you're still very weak, why don't you sit down and talk."

"Ok."

Kikuro reluctantly sat down again, and looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu, and asked with some doubt:

"Excuse me, who are these two...?"

"Ah, they are Ms. Ritsuka and Ms. Mashu."

Laos introduced him with a smile:

"Thanks to them and Sensi's help, we were able to get all the way here and rescue Falin." "Is that so?"

Hearing this, Kikuro nodded to express his gratitude to them. However, when it came to this topic, he asked Laos with some doubt:

"By the way, I didn't expect you to enter the maze again right away, and actually defeat the Flame Dragon."

"How did you do it?"

It might sound a bit arrogant, but he admitted that Laos and Marlucil were also strong, but he did not think that the team had the power to defeat the Fire Dragon after he and Namali were gone.

Moreover, he remembered that Malucier was not good at resurrection, so who resurrected Falin?

Is it because of the three new members?

Hearing the question raised by Julang, Kabul immediately perked up and agreed with a smile:

"I'm also curious. I'm sure you all must have experienced some pretty difficult adventures along the way, right?"

"Well..."

Laos scratched his head and smiled innocently:

"Actually, everything is fine, thanks to the help of Senxi, Ms. Ritsuka and Ms. Mashu along the way. After the whole group was wiped out and teleported back to the ground, and after Kikuro and Namali left..."

"Okay, try to focus on the key points if possible."

Seeing that the other party seemed to want to start talking from the beginning, Ju Lang interrupted him with a headache.

"Ok."

Hearing this, Laos pondered for a while and said:

"Ms. Ritsuka defeated the Flame Dragon and helped us find and revive Farin. Then a mad magician showed up and tried to capture Farin. Although Ritsuka and Mashu defeated him, they eventually let him escape. We are now preparing to go deeper to find and defeat him once and for all."

"......!!!" x2

This speech was indeed a rather concise summary, but the explosive amount of information contained in it instantly made Julang and Kabul freeze in place, with their pupils shaking!

Because he didn't know how to ask next, Ju Lang even went into a state of computer shutdown.

Kabul was the first to come back to his senses. Although he had countless questions in his mind, he forced himself to calm down and immediately grasped the key point he wanted to ask the most. He looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu beside him and said:

"The Mad Magician is the Master of the Labyrinth, right? As far as I can remember, no one has ever seen him. How do you know that the person you are fighting is him?"

Fujimaru Ritsuka smiled and said:

"I think that the person who can change the terrain of the maze at will and use the maze itself as a means of attack should be no one other than the maze master, right?"

"I see."

Kabul showed an expression of realization and nodded in agreement, while imagining that kind of attack. If it were him, would there be any way to resist it?

Using the maze itself as a means of attack...

If that's the case, it would be almost impossible to defeat him in the maze unless we could get him close to us, right?

However, according to Laos, the two girls in front of him have turned the "impossible" in his mind into reality, which is also the issue that concerns him the most -

He carefully observed the expressions of Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu and confirmed:

"Did you really defeat the Mad Magician?"

Fujimaru Ritsuka thought for a while and said:

"I don't think we can say we were defeated. After all, the battle only lasted a short time. The enemy just suffered one attack and then retreated. To be precise, well..."

Matthew smiled and added:

"Should it be considered a repulse?"

"Ah, that's right!"

"..."

Looking at the two girls in front of him, singing in unison and telling the story with a relaxed expression, Kabul felt a little dazed.

Because from the two people's tone and expression, he could tell that they were not lying. Not only that, they even gave people an attitude that they had "done it very easily" in defeating the crazy magician.

From his previous encounters with the two, he already knew that they should be very powerful, but the current situation was still far beyond his expectations.

Easily defeat the Lord of the Maze...

Isn't this too strong?
