Comprehensive Manga: The Master is not here today

"Ambrocia, please..."

Under the gaze of everyone, Maluciel put the magic book on the ground in front of her, murmured to her staff, put it on the magic book, slowly closed her eyes, and began to chant in a low voice. Chant a mantra that is difficult for others to understand.

The next moment, the staff made of countless rattans in her hand was like a branch that had absorbed nutrients. It began to grow gradually, spreading out sections of slender roots and shoots. This was the staff that was eating away at the magic book. sealing magic.

"——!"

Soon the spell came to an end, Maluciel's eyes suddenly opened, she raised the staff in her hand high, and let out an unexplained squeal, and then landed heavily on the magic book again!

At this moment, Fujimaru Ritsuka and others suddenly felt that something seemed to have been eliminated from the magic book. At the same time, an inexplicable sound suddenly came from the magic book itself——

crackle. crackle. crackle...

"babble?!"

The sudden movement startled Maluciel. At the same time, she noticed something and quickly withdrew the staff placed on the magic book.

Amidst such a strange sound, a gap suddenly appeared in the edge of the tightly closed magic book. It slowly opened as if struggling to break free, and then suddenly burst into dazzling light!

Everyone subconsciously raised their hands to cover it. Soon, the light gradually dissipated. In everyone's surprised eyes, a lion's head suddenly appeared on the magic book, and he said in a gentle tone:

"——Hello, it's our first time meeting you. But even though I say that, I have actually been paying attention to you."

"Say, talk...!"

"...Is it a winged lion?"

"But why only one head came out...?"

The first meeting with the winged lion was not as exciting as everyone imagined, because the other person's current image is really weird and funny, and even gives people a feeling of 'are you here to be funny? ’ feeling.

Faced with everyone's comments, Winged Lion remained unmoved and said calmly:

"As you can see, the seal is actually only half lifted, and the other half is still in Hisl's hands."

"In this state, I can't use much power, but I can finally talk to you."

Hearing this, everyone came to their senses. At this moment, Laos suddenly thought of something and asked the winged lion nervously:

"Well, can you help unlock Faline's magic now?"

The Winged Lion glanced at Falin, shook his head and said:

"My current power can only prevent her from being controlled by Hisl for the time being, but if I want to be completely liberated, I still have to defeat the other party, or find a way to remove the other half of the seal that restricts my power."

"Is this so..."

Laos felt a little regretful when he heard this, but their goal remained unchanged, so they quickly regained their composure. The next moment, Itsuzumi also interjected, looking at the Winged Lion expectantly:

"Hey, Lion Head, can you put me back together?!"

"Um……"

The winged lion looked at her, pondered for a moment and said:

"Your situation is a bit complicated, but it's no problem. But it can only be achieved after my power is restored."

"!"

Izumi's eyes lit up instantly, the hope in her heart was completely ignited, and her whole person became excited.

As long as she defeats Hisl, she can get rid of this damn black magic!

After the conversation between the two ended, the atmosphere became slightly quieter. At this time, Fujimaru Ritsuka spoke:

"By the way, Winged Lion, do you know why King Delgaru's body is here?"

Upon hearing her question, everyone immediately cast inquiring and curious glances. Winged Lion smiled and explained:

"Of course, it's not complicated."

During this thousand years, many people could not bear the eternal things in the labyrinth, nor could they bear to live under the control of Hisl, so they chose to resist. King Delgaru's son Ai Audio is one of them.

One day, he had a direct conflict with Hisl, and the result of his protest was that his soul was taken away by Hisl, who had fallen into madness.

Seeing the tragic end of his son, Delgaru was extremely sad. He finally made up his mind to escape from the maze and planned to seek help from people on the ground. However, because Hisl monitored him too closely, he could not succeed no matter what he did.

All this was seen by it.

After being imprisoned for nearly a thousand years, it regained some strength. Finally, it successfully contacted Delgaru six years ago and began to think of ways to help him escape.

In the end, Delgaru asked it to put his soul into the body of his son Iodio in order to avoid Sisl's surveillance. In this way, he successfully escaped from the maze and reached the ground. What follows is what everyone knows situation.

"I see……"

After finally figuring out the truth of the matter, everyone showed a look of surprise. Not only that, the context of the entire incident seemed to have gradually become clear——

A thousand years ago, the Kingdom of Gold suddenly encountered various natural and man-made disasters. In order to protect King Delgaru and all the citizens, Hisl asked the Winged Lion to create a labyrinth and became the master of the labyrinth;

After Hisl became the master of the labyrinth, the country prospered again for a while, but Hisl's desire became more and more inflated. She began to study ancient magic, fell deeply into it, and gradually became crazy. Finally, she sealed the winged lion who advised her. And imposed the [immortal curse] on all citizens of the Golden Kingdom.

The citizens who could no longer bear it began to rebel, but were brutally suppressed. Finally, with the help of the winged lion, King Delgar successfully escaped from the maze and sent a distress signal to the people on the ground.

"——That's about it."

The winged lion nodded in affirmation of Mashu's brief summary, and then said:

"I know you still have questions to ask, and I have a lot to say to you. But there is no time. Hisel is almost here."

"!"×n

When these words came out, everyone was shocked and subconsciously looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu.

Although this behavior was a bit embarrassing, among them, only Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu could confront Hisel head-on.

The winged lion also looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka, and said with a serious expression:

"Now Hisel has completely fallen into madness and cannot communicate normally. I can barely suppress some of the power of the maze he has mastered, but he also knows a lot of dangerous ancient magic, so please be careful."

"I know."

Fujimaru Ritsuka nodded, and then seemed to think of something, and couldn't help but look at the bodies of Delgaru and others at the table, with a thoughtful expression.

Aware of her gaze, Mashu asked with some doubts:

"What's wrong, is there a problem?"

"Well, nothing."

Fujimaru Ritsuka laughed:

"I just suddenly had an idea."

In the eyes of Laos and others, Fujimaru Ritsuka's smile at this time seemed a little evil for some reason.

——

"It's okay, it's okay, calm down, it's okay..."

Hisel was sitting on the back of a giant monster, descending from the air at high speed, muttering something in his mouth, with a gloomy and anxious expression.

Not long ago, he suddenly ‘saw’ the group of adventurers who killed his fire dragon, ate his fire dragon meat, and injured him break into his home. He was rushing home at a high speed.

But why didn’t he find any trace of this group of people before?

“…It must be the winged lions who are making trouble again, damn it…!”

Thinking of this, he couldn’t help but grit his teeth, and at the same time, he became more and more anxious. Thinking of the figures of the two powerful invaders always made him feel very uneasy.

Delga…

After using the power of the Lord of the Labyrinth to pass through countless obstacles, the scenery on the ground finally turned into a forest, and his home, the cabin, also appeared in his sight, becoming larger and clearer.

At the same time, the two beautiful figures standing in front of the cabin also instantly attracted his attention, and his face couldn’t help but change:

It’s them!

“Boom——!”

When it was about to approach the ground, the monster under it flapped its wings vigorously to slow down, and finally landed steadily, but the strong impact brought by the heavy body still cracked the ground under its feet, causing a slight earthquake.

"Roar——"

"Shut up!"

Looking at the two people standing in front of the cabin, the monster stared at them with hostility. Just as it was about to roar intimidation, it was stopped by a very unhappy voice behind it.

Hisel jumped off the monster's back and stared at Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu with a gloomy face, but on the contrary, Fujimaru Ritsuka smiled and waved in a relaxed tone:

"You are here!"
