Chapter 76: Hero (4)
Flowers of laughter blood fully in the Labyrinth Plaza.
Survivors from progressively higher floors were appearing.
A handful of good news blooming amidst the bad news that had swept the continent—the Great Cataclysm Patch.
"Ooh! General! This ti a survivor appeared on the 14th floor!"
Good news in the midst of disaster always poured down like rain on everyone's parched hearts.
"……I see."
Yet, the Imperial Capital Army General alone wore a discontented expression even then.
'I must et His Majesty as soon as possible…….'
The conquest of the highest floor had beco certain.
Nevertheless, the General could not bring himself to rejoice wholeheartedly.
'Saint Eric.'
The image of the enormous Paladin who had first escaped from the Labyrinth still lingered in the General's mind like an afterimage.
'Such a force in the heart of the Imperial Capital-.'
The Central Cathedral of the Imperial Capital, operated by the Empire's Saint.
That was Eric's base of operations.
'Co to think of it…….'
A fact he had forgotten while surprised by Jackson's skills and Ruelle's subtlety ca to mind.
'Children were playing war gas spewing auras and divine power.'
On his previous visit, the General had thoroughly searched even the orphanage next to the church with expanded perception.
'The one supervising that……. Was certainly the Director of the Imperial Daily News.'
At first, he thought it was rely a courtesy visit for sponsorship.
'But why is the Director of the Imperial Daily News-.'
At this point, it seed to suggest so sort of intention.
The place that carries and conveys the greatness of the Imperial Family is the [Imperial Daily News].
Yet why is its owner at the Saint's orphanage?
This was no ordinary matter.
Perhaps……
'A poison called Divine Power might be perating the Empire.'
Guarding the Labyrinth entrance, all sorts of thoughts passed through his mind.
It was certainly an urgent matter that needed resolving, but the General could not leave his post.
"General! Survivors from the 16th floor too!"
The highest floor of the Labyrinth had been conquered.
That fact ant the return of the First Prince, who would soon beco the Empire's Crown Prince.
'The First Prince His Highness Leonardo will be returning.'
With the Imperial Palace engaged in a national crisis eting, there would be no Imperial Family to greet the First Prince Leonardo.
In the first place, the Emperor himself had entrusted the survivor matter to the General.
'One to two survivors appearing every hour-.'
The General tried to estimate when the Crown Prince would appear.
Would it take at least a day for the conquest team of the 32nd floor to return?
'In the end, the matter about the Saint will have to wait-.'
At that very mont.
Boom!
A crack appeared in the Grand Protective Magic Circle surrounding the Imperial Capital.
"General-! The, the sky-."
