Comprehensive Manga: The Master is not here today

At the banquet, the two parties determined their respective destinations. Leos and his group were preparing to return to the ground, while Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu continued to explore. However, before returning to the ground, Faline promised to ask Fujimaru Ritsuka about the ghost. to express her gratitude.

At the same time, Leos also shared with Faline their experience of eating monsters along the way, which aroused Faline's strong interest.

Marucil, who originally wanted to avoid Farin from eating monsters, suddenly realized that as Laos's younger sister, their interests and hobbies might be surprisingly consistent.

…

The happy time passed quickly, and Sensi, who wanted to continue processing the dragon meat to preserve and take away, offered to stay vigil and let others go to rest first.

Considering that the flame dragon's corpse might attract other monsters, they chose to station in a remote and relatively safer house slightly away from there, with men and women each occupying one bedroom.

The bedroom was not big, only a wooden bed, and they moved a bed from another house to barely fit it down. Malucile and Faline slept together, and Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu slept together, which was just right.

"Good night then."

"Good night."

Lying on the bed, everyone quickly fell asleep.

Although no fierce battle broke out in the end, perhaps because they were able to sleep on the bed for the first time, or perhaps because they successfully rescued Faline, the tense nerves in everyone's hearts finally relaxed, and they slept particularly deeply.

As for Fujimaru Ritsuka, she sleeps soundly at any time.

However, in the middle of the night that didn't know how long it had passed, Faline suddenly woke up and opened her eyes suddenly.

"..."

She silently climbed up from the bed and walked out of the bed, without even wearing shoes, and just walked in a certain direction in a daze.

Although the movement she caused was very slight, Mashu woke up immediately and noticed Faline's presence.

...Miss Faline?

However, she didn't pay too much attention, just thinking that the other party was getting up for convenience, but soon, the next scene made her immediately notice the abnormality of the situation -

Faline's footsteps were like sleepwalking. She did not go to the door of the bedroom, but walked all the way to the edge of the bedroom window, raised her feet and stepped straight through the window and climbed out of the house.

"!"

Seeing this scene, Mashu suddenly woke up and quickly called to Fujimaru Ritsuka beside him:

"Senior, wake up! Something happened to Miss Falin!"

"What's wrong?"

Fujimaru Ritsuka was still a little confused when she was first woken up, but she quickly woke up after hearing the second half of the sentence. At the same time, she immediately looked at Faline's bed, which was now empty.

"From the window?!"

Mashu immediately explained the situation, and Fujimaru Ritsuka immediately cheered up. The two of them quickly came to the window and looked down. They saw Faline in pajamas and barefoot walking on the street, looking a little weird. .

Sleepwalking?

Does the other party still have this habit?

Fujimaru Ritsuka tried to call her and said:

"Faline, what are you doing? Where are you going?"

"..."

However, Faline did not make any response and continued to move forward without hearing anything. Seeing this, Fujimaru Ritsuka smelled a hint of trouble and turned to Mashu:

"You follow Faline first and see what's going on. I'll inform the others."

"yes!"

Matthew nodded in agreement and immediately jumped out of the window to catch up with Faline and followed her.

"Hmm...what's wrong...?"

At the same time, the noisy movement finally made Marucille wake up in the room, and looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka in confusion, not knowing what happened.

Fujimaru Ritsuka explained briefly:

"Faline left the room alone, and something seemed a little wrong."

"What?!"

After hearing the news about Faline, Malucile suddenly woke up. She quickly turned around and found that Faline had indeed disappeared. Could it be a side effect of ancient magic...?

A bad thought flashed through her mind, and she hurriedly got up, and together with Fujimaru Ritsuka, informed Leos and others.

After receiving the news, everyone quickly put on their weapons and equipment and chased Faline and Masu in the direction they left, and soon found them where Yanlong's body was.

However, the scene in front of them made them stunned——

The corpse of Yan Long, who had just been beheaded, was gradually melting like ice and snow, and the skin and flesh had almost turned into thick blood. In front of Yan Long's corpse, stood quietly a short man, covered in blood. An elf with a terrifying aura,

Mashu and Faline were confronting each other. To be precise, Mashu grabbed Faline's hand with one hand to prevent her from moving forward towards the elf. The other hand held the round table cross shield tightly and watched the opponent warily.

But Faline, who was caught by her, showed great resistance, kept struggling, and kept muttering words of unknown meaning in her mouth——

"We must...find...Her Majesty Delga...!"

"Faline——!"

Everyone quickly came to Mashu and the others and confronted the elves with vigilance. Laos quickly looked at Faline and said:

"Faline, what's wrong with you? Faline!?"

"It's so annoying—!"

"Bang!"

Laos's call seemed to make him more agitated. The other hand that was not under control waved hard and knocked Laos straight away!

"Leos!"

Malucile looked worriedly in the direction of Laos. Sensi went over to help him up and sighed in a solemn tone:

"What a powerful force..."

"Although I still don't understand the situation, Faline, you should take a rest first."

At this moment, Fujimaru Ritsuka took out the druid's staff and tapped the increasingly violent Faline on the back, causing her to faint and finally calm down.

"Faline!"

Maluciel quickly caught Faline's body. Mashu, who was finally able to concentrate, nodded to Fujimaru Ritsuka. Fujimaru Ritsuka smiled back, then looked at the elf in front of him and said:

"So, who are you? What did you do to Faline?"

"...It should be because of what you did to my dragon."

The other party suddenly spoke, and his gloomy eyes swept over everyone in front of him, and finally fell on Leos who fell to the ground. His eyes instantly became sharp, and he asked in a deep voice:

"Despicable and shameless thief... I remember you, you used to run around among the living paintings..."

"Now I'm turning my dragon into a mess..."

"Living painting?"

Fujimaru Ritsuka looked at Laos. She didn't know the other person's experience, but Laos's expression was startled, as if he remembered something, and Maluciel and others also showed surprised expressions.

But before they could continue to ask, the next moment, the other party seemed to have found the answer——

"……I see."

"You...are all usurpers...!"

"All go to hell——!!"

After the words fell, the other party's eyes with hatred stared at them, his hands stretched out from the cloak, and the magic book in his hand floated in mid-air and began to turn the pages automatically. At the same time, the other party also began to read something with unknown meaning in his mouth. mantra.

"Hey, is he chanting a spell? I have a bad feeling...!"

Chirchak felt very bad, but Fujimaru Ritsuka felt helpless when he saw this:

"Seriously, can't you explain it clearly first and then fight?"

At least introduce who you are first, right?

At this time, Leos suddenly shouted:

"Everyone, be careful! He is the Lord of the Labyrinth, the Crazy Magician!"
