Chapter 81: A Maze II

Amidst the towering walls of the maze, there were two paths in front of Kyle.

One was leading to the left side and one to the right.

Now that he was on the fourth floor, the old scroll he bought from the strange dwarf was useless that's why he have to find the exit of this vast maze by himself.

With a serious expression, Kyle started pondering as to which side he should go.

After a while, he decided to go toward the left path but before he could step forward two individuals wearing tattered clothes suddenly emerged out from that side.

With a caution expression, Kyle stepped back and gripped his sword hilt tightly. He looked at the two individuals who just appeared in front of him.

Both of them were almost the same height as him, the one who was leading had golden hair while the other had light red.

The golden hair individual was holding a spear while the red hair seemed to be a mage as there was a small red color wand tied to his waist.

The thing that caught Kyle's attention was the expensive grey armor underneath their tattered clothes.

Armors were not rare but they were too expensive.

'I think they are from a rich family.'

While Kyle was busy analyzing the two individuals, one of the individuals who had red hair suddenly fell to his knees.

Tears stream down his cheeks as he looked at the gate, Kyle entered from.

His voice was choked as he tried to grab the golden hair individual legs.

"N.ot agai..n."

They completely ignored Kyle who was dumbfounded when he saw the red-haired guy weeping with distress.

Bia who was sitting on top of Kyle also looked at the red hair individual and gave her opinion.

-'I think he lost it.'

-'You know that thing called brain?'

Under Kyle's gaze, the golden hair individual immediately stepped back, stopping the red hair individual from grabbing his legs.

The golden hair individual finally gazed at Kyle and become embarrassed because of the red hair individual.

"Get up, Jian. Someone else is present here beside us."

The red hair individual who was called Jian also looked at Kyle and tried to smile but his smile was not beautiful at all. He was smiling but tears were still streaming down his cheeks continuously.

Kyle was momentarily speechless. He didn't knew what to say anymore the situation was too awkward.

The red hair individual who was called Jian was sitting between the path Kyle wanted to enter that's why Kyle had no choice but to speak.

"Are you alright?"

Jian looked at Kyle while wiping away his tears.

"Am I ...alright? Do I look.. fine to you?"

After Kyle, Jian looked at the golden hair individual.

"Kelvin do something. I am too tired no I am dead tired. It's been three weeks since we appeared inside this floor and the only thing we did was to find the starting point two times."

The golden hair individual who was called Kelvin sighed and shook his head. It was not like he couldn't understand Jian. It's just he can't do anything about their situation.

They have been struck on this floor for three dam weeks!

No one would be able to remain composed after experiencing so much.

After a while, Jian finally calm down but he was too embarrassed to look at Kyle who just saw him weeping that's why Kelvin approached Kyle and introduced himself and Jian.

Kelvin didn't tell Kyle anything else except for their names and from which Kingdom they belonged as he didn't knew what type of person Kyle was.

Also, it was not right to trust someone immediately.

In reply, Kyle also introduced himself as 'Kyle Ohan' from Kingdom Escalante.

Once again there was silence because after Kyle introduced himself with a simple line he didn't speak anything else but then Jian stood up with a serious expression.

"Let's go together, no matter what I will find the exit of this maze and then I will kill the person who designed this dam maze!"

Jian determined voice echoed inside the vast maze, making Kelvin look at him with pride but Kyle only replied with an 'Oh'.

Kyle would have already left if not for Jian who was weeping between the path he wanted to enter.

He sighed, he wanted to go alone but after seeing the condition of Kelvin and Jian, Kyle changed his thoughts of going alone.

The maze seemed too dangerous.

Bia also urged him to go together with Kelvin and Jian as it was safest to have some meat shield with them.

After Kyle nodded, the three of them decided to find the exit together.

There were only two paths in front of them.

Both Kelvin and Jian looked at each other and left the decision to choose the path on Kyle because three weeks ago they choose the left path but in the end ended up coming back through the right path.

The second time they choose the right path but it seemed the starting point loved them so much that they ended up here again from the left path.

Kyle was surprised at how easily they left such a big decision on him.

With a serious expression, he entered the left path together with the others.

Under the bright sun that was burning on top of their heads, Bia fell asleep while Kyle and the others kept walking straight on the left path.

Kyle was still vigilant around Kelvin and Jian but after seeing them for a while he was sure they weren't bad people.

While walking Jian started talking. Telling Kyle about his experience inside the fourth floor.

Of course, he left a lot of embarrassing details as to how both he and Kelvin were targeted by a lot of 'Boss Monsters'.

"This floor is too dam shitty. I think it will take us months just to find the exit."

Kyle nodded and gripped his sword more tightly because according to Jian they will encounter monsters the moment they choose the next path.

There was also a 10 percent chance to encounter a boss monster.

The fourth floor was really too dangerous.
