Jayr POV - Reise Labyrinth - 2013

  After hearing my answer, Miledi Golem quietly stares at me for a while, then she gives a little nod and mutters, "I see...", and in the moment, her serious atmosphere disappears as if it was an illusion and her previous light attitude returns, "Nn~, I see I see. So that's it~, okay, then it's time for battle! Splendidly defeat me and you will obtain the A Age of Gods Magic!".

  Since she gave the signal to start the battle, I quickly make my move, I raise my Tactical Arms, and turn the handle, which makes the bde split open ging it to its Gatling Form, and pulling the trigger, I shower the huge golem in a storm of bullets, but the golem quickly reacts and cover itself with its huge arms, still, the power behind my attack is strong enough to push the golem against one of the floating blocks, raising a big cloud of dust.

  But, when the smoke clears up, Miledi's Golem appears only with some parts of both of her forearms broken, but then she picks up some of the pieces of the floating block, and the moment, they depose and became materials for the parts of her arms that were broke it in its pristiate, then she says, "Fufu, what a fast preemptive strike~, e, my Age of Gods Magic will for sure make you stronger~, but because I am als~, work hard because if you don't, you will die~".

  And, while ughing joyfully, Miledi's Golem shot out the fil-type Mstar in her left hand toward me and Eri, it wasn't thrown, the Mstar just suddenly flew with tremendous velocity without any starting movement, 'She is again using Gravity Magic...', seeing that, I quickly hold on Eri and jump on another floating block to avoid the Mstar, that crashes against the block we where standing on, crushing it into minute pieces, then it returns into the golem's hand.

  Landing on the block, I whisper into Eri's ear, "Okay... Everything is like I remember, let's follow the pn...", then Eri quickly summons a huge amount of flying skeletons puppets and jumps on top of one of them, then, she disperses them to pull away as many golems as possible, that start to chase after her moving like ihe passage before, while some others turn toward me and rush out.

  I ge the Tactical Arms into its Sword Arm Form, and with the two bdes I start to cut apart every golem that enters my range while jumping from one block to another, and soon I hear Miledi ugh as she says, "Ahaha, you do it after all~, but, the enemies are 50 infinitely regeing knights and me, I wonder if you handle all of us at the same time~".

  While saying that with a sarcastie, Miledi again fires the Mstar at me, but I simply join together the two bdes, ging my Tactical Arms into its huge Sword Form, and using it like a bat, I deflect the Mstar toward anroup of golems crushing them, then I jump toward Miledi's Golem ready to strike it down.

  Miledi's Golem looks at me and says, "I already saw that ing~", and along with those words, Miledi's Golem suddenly moves to the side at a great velocity, 'She must be "falling" to the side using Gravity Magic...', but even with my aim off, I already expected something simir, so I kick a nearby floating block correg my trajectory, and spinning mid-air, I hit the golem with a crushing blow using the ft side of my bde that carries a signifit trifugal.

  Miledi's Golem immediately uses her left arm to guard, and a tremendous sound of the impaes from it, however, as if nothing happened Miledi's Golem swipes her left hand horizontally, blowing me back, 'Damn... She use her Gravity Magie to lighten the weight, and so the force, behind my attack...'

  At the same time, I feel the olem quickly approag me, but I easily correct my posture, and nd on a nearby block, then I use my Tactical Arms Gatling Arm Form to quickly mow down the approag golems knights as I bounce from block to bloaintain my distaurning them into scrap as they fell to the bottom.

  Quickly more than 40 golem knights fell to the bottom of the room in tragic states in no time, 'After some time, they would likely finish restrug aurn to the frontline, but it is good that they won't be hindrances for a while... Hope long enough to defeat Miledi', at the same time, seeing this se Miledi yells "Wh-, what was that!? I have never seen nor heard of anything like that!".

  Having heard Miledi Golem's astonished shout, I again ge my on bato its Sword Form and rush toward Miledi's Golem using the floating block while yelling with a grin to further destabilize her, "I know that your core is at the same pce as the heart!", the tactic is successful as, once more, Miledi let out an astonished voice, "W-wh-! How did you know that!?".

  As I move, the remaining 10 golem knights try to obstruct me, but I easily cut them apart a closer to Miledi's Golem.

  However, it isn't that easy, I quickly notice Miledi's Golem's eyes shine for a moment, and the instant the blocks that are floating above her, move toward me with tremendous speed, as she says, "I never said I only trol the knights~", and ign her grinning voice, I quickly move to dodge them, and nd on a nearby still block.

  Naturally, Miledi uses her Gravity Magic to "drop" my foothold, but right at that moment one of Eri's puppets appears under me and saves me from falling, at the same time, Eri appears from behind her riding a big skeleton bird-like monster, another of the monsters from Orcus's Labyrinth and summon the skeleton Hydra, which quickly drops toward the golem and start to around the golem to bind it.

  Miledi notices Eri and says, "Hoo~ A monster from O-'s byrinth~ I fot about you for a moment~", taking advantage of this small opening, I jump over toward Miledi's golem and start spinning to accumute even more force as I quickly fall toward her.

  Miledi notices this and starts tle to escape the Hydra's binding, "Golem won't lose in terms of power~", and i seems that a lot of power is hidden in this huge golem as it is slowly able to overpower the Hydra, but just as it is about to free itself, I crash down on it with tremendous power.

  A tremendous roar resounded when my on and Miledi's Golem's armor collided, the surrounding floating blocks are blown away radially by the ensuing shockwave, and my attack blows Miledi's Golem away while her chest armor is shattered into tiny fragments.

  The rebound of my attack is s that blows me bato the air, and I quickly search for a pce to nd, 'There aren't floating blocks where I d around as they are all blown away by the previous impact...', but soon one of Eri's puppets es close and I use it as a foothold to move to a nearby floating ptform, at the same time, Eri flies closer to the position I'm going to nd.

  Once I nd, Eri quickly asks, "Did we win?", and I frown and shake my head then look down to observe Miledi's Golem's dition, but before I could check, the nearby floating blocks start to move, a we hear Miledi's voice, "Wow~ you're the real deal, that was a close call. If there was no magic power disiion, that artifact's power enhanced with magic would have been very dangerous you know~, yes, having made this byrinth with great effort, Miledi- is a genius!!".

  I ignore Milendi's words and focus on her golem, and notice a jet bck armor beh the wrecked chest armor, and I quickly reize the material, Miledi notices my gaze, and with a grinning voice says, "Nnu~, did this i you~", then she points at the jet bck armor and with the tone of someone important she tries to expin, "This is you know~", but I stop and tinue her sentence "... Azanthium, right the hardest material of this world... I made quite a few artifacts with that one in Orcus Abode... I admit it is quite hard... for sure harder than a Bronze Cloth in fact it is parable with a Silver Cloth..."

  Hearing that Miledi excims "Oh my? You knew of this~, rather that's a given. You have quered O-kun's byrinth after all, so it was impossible for you to not know how to use Creation magic~. But what are these Bronze and Silver Cloths that you speak of~?", I raise my on again and reply, "I'll tell you after this battle...", hearing that the Miledi's golem nods and she says "Right~, now e, because you had uood your limit and feel hopelessness, let's move on to the sed round!".

  Miledi then snatches the materials from the smashed floating blocks and uses them to repair the surface armor, then, agaiarts to fiercely charge while firing the Mstar.

  Seeing that Eri suddenly asks in a worried tone as she flies out of harm's way, "W-what should we do, Jayr!?", and I dodge the ining Mstar, by jumping over another block, and, calm as I still have the situation under trol, say, "Well it seems that I have to use my trump card...", however, Miledi in her usual tone, "I won't let you~".

  And along with Miledi's voice, under her and, the floating block that bees my foothold starts rotating at high speed.

  With my footholds rotating all of a sudden, I briefly lost my bance, and then, the Mstar crashes into it with its immense power, f me to abandon my foothold that had bee fine dust and jump over one of Eri's passerby puppets.

  But that is Miledi's aim, as I find her quickly moving toward me as she thrusts her heat knuckle in my dire, f me to use my on as a shield to block it, "Urgh!", I avoided the direct hit, but the force behind the punch still shook my ans a little causing me a little of pain and disfort.

  But I don't stop, I split my bde into two ging to Sword Arm form and as the golem loses its bance because of it, I join again the bdes together and attack the golem's hand with a full-power vertical ssh, and with it I'm able to cut off a part of the golem's right hand, pletely severing it, and think, 'Hmm, as I thought, the Azanthium covers only the core... After all, the other pieces easily be restored, but if the core is gohen the golem is a useless scrap of metal!'.

  Seeing the lost hand Miledi excims, "ah, what-!?", at the same time, many of Eri's puppet start to attack the attached to the Mstar, and break it, then some other flying puppets take the on away from Miledi's range, and again Miledi lets out a surprised voice, and I take advantage of this little distra to cut off the other arm before jumping away, nding oo Eri on her flying puppet.

  Having lost both arms, Miledi raises a voice filled with irritation, "Kh, you—! Don't get carried away!", at that moment, Miledi who lost both arms somehow didn't summon the surrounding blocks to restruct her arms, she only looked at the ceiling while her eyes shorongly.

  Having a totally bad premonition about what she is about to do, I hug Eri and whisper, "Something is ing... Hold on tightly... Things are getting shaky here...", at the same time, I finally sense what she is doing, 'Okay... Without ic this could be slightly bad...', and prepare for what is about to happen.

  And immediately after, it happehe ey of the room start to rumble, and as the low rumbling of earth resounds, the blocks that make up the ceiling start to fall toward us, seeing this, I hold Eri tighter and start to pn the route to e out of this unscratched, at the same time, I hear Miledi's voice as she says, "Fufufu, it's payback. Although I am incapable of trolling multiple things at the same time, except for the knights, if it's only to make them "fall", then even I cause hundreds of them to do so~, show me how you surpass this~".

  I notice a slight irritation in Miledi's easygoing words, but there is no time to care for it, because one by one, each of those gigantic blocks, with weight surpassions, are quickly falling like rain, 'Okay... This has to be some kind of Karma... because right now I kinda uand how my enemies felt receiving my P Rain teique...'.

  I start to jump from floating block to floating block, and unch a quick peak at Miledi's Golem and notice that she keeps looking at the ceiling, 'Perhaps, just as she said, uhe golem knights she is only able to trol one or two things... Therefore, in order to make those blocks fall, she must trate to remove hundreds of those gigantic stones from the ceiling making her uo trol these floating blocks...'.

  Blocks keep falling from the ceiling, in huge groups of gigantic stones all falling toward us, letting out devastating roars while the room stops shaking.

  I tinue moving and keep studying this attack, 'Moreover, she might even be able to adjust the trajectories because they are specifically aimed at the pce where we are... Even so, Miledi wouldn't it a double suicide, so it should be safe to go under her...', and after realizing that, I dash out with tremendous speed, "Eri! Hold on tight! Absolutely don't let go!".

  As soon as I hear Eri's "Un!", I used my on in its Gatling Arm Form and he rapidly shoot at the oning gigantic stones, while it doesn't have enough power to totally destroy them, it easily push them out of their intended course, making them crash against oher, and break apart, and open a little path to safety.

  However, my interception could only go so far, and finally, a group of gigantic stohat fell with great velocity is about to reach me.

  I firm that Eri is tightly holding onto me, then move even faster using all the power behind my agility stat, my world immediately seems to lose all its color, and I'm able tnize all the falling fragments of death one by one.

  And I calmly pass by the barrage of gigantic stone fragments using the minimum necessary movement while thinking, 'Aaah... I feel so slow... Going from easily moving at the speed of light to this supersonic speed is almost like torture... I feel like I've gone back to the time I was at the Silver Saint level... But now I move at this speed using only my own physical strength and not the o-enhanced one... So it is an improvement!'.

  At the same time, I use the Gatling in my hands to fire trated shots at the unavoidable fragments, ging their trajectories.

  Still, I feel that this isn't enough to ensure my safety so I use the special magic I'm most familiar with, which is "Limit Break", and my body is immediately ed in red light, but, it immediately disappears, 'If it was normal, my physical abilities should have been raised by three times, but that special magic is partially nullified by the Labyrinth's magic power disiion... Limit Break itself is simir to wearing a reinforced exoskeleton made by magic... It is different from Body Strengthening which is applied internally, but still, this magihances everything pushing the body over the natural limit, further increasing everything my perception included!'.

  Luckily my perception is already quite good as it is traio follow attacks that move at the speed of light or in some rare cases even faster using o, and now using Limit Break, it almost got close to that level, a normal body would have already broken down uhe burden of all these new information, but for me, everything feels different, I feel free, rexed, almost like some kind of heavy s that keeps restraining me, are finally broken.

  I see that Eri is swaying unsteadily when I move, while I tio easily evade the death that rained with only small movements.

  I bance myself on the footholds that sway and are violently crushed, sometimes I make the falling fragments my foothold, at the same time, I perceive the cracks on the falling rocks one by one, easily spotting the ots of these blocks, I smile and decre, "I see it...".

  Miledi POV - Reise Labyrinth - 2013

  I look at Jayr and Eri from the wall's side, ahat they are immediately swallowed by the numerous gigantic stones, and think, 'Although they were struggling for a while, in the end, they weren't able to surpass the masses as expected...', then I deactivate the "fall" with a little disappoi.

  With their fall stopped, the clusters of gigantic stones are now floating along with the blocks, then, under my and, the scattered ceiling's wreckage starts to rise to go back it its rightful pd I mutter "U~n, as expected, it was impossible~, but if they couldn't do this much, they wouldn't be able to win against those shitty bastards~", and think 'Damn it! For a moment I thought that the time had finally e!! That shitty God would have finally died...', while menting the fact that I failed again to find a good didate, I search for the corpses of Jayr and Eri.

  But right at that moment I hear a familiar voice, "Don't worry that God and its soulless puppets are going to die...", and in surprise, I simply excim in a shocked voice tinged with a little joy and hope, "Eh?", and turn around to see him, the charming boy with messy dark blue hair, and shining crimsohat uses an artifact that I have never seen before.

  There he is, surely, Jayr who stands safe and sound on the floating block with evehing, and a calm smile on his face, and I only ask in doubt, "H-how…", while thinking, 'I'm sure I saw Jayr swallowed by the group of gigantic stones in front of my eyes!', hearing that, Jayr tio look at me with a fident smile and says, "Although I could easily answer your question, first let me ask... Is it okay to only foe?".

  Stunned for a moment, I raise the same doubting voice as before, "Eh?", uo uand for a moment the true meaning behind his question, but, that doubt is immediately answered when I feel someooug the bay golem as a t resounds, "Scatterdust!!", and soon feel a wave of mana passing through the golem's body cutting my e with it, making it basically an immobile target.

  Realizing this I excim in surprise, "The dark magic spell Scatterdust~!! The stro mana-disruption spell, whiot only obstructs the mana of the target's spell, but even disrupts the internal flow of their mana~ Good idea you made me momentarily powerless~ But, it's impossible for you to break my Azanthium armor~".

  Then Eri flies away, and, at the same time, Jayr jumps toward me while yelling "I won't be so sure of this...", and nds on the golem's body.

  I'm still calm as I see Jayr so close, I didn't even try to obstruct him using the floating blocks in the surroundings, 'Well, that is only natural. After all, Jayr's on is proven to be uo harm Miledi-'s armor... But si already reached this stage, aill chose this kind of attack, I'm sure that he is just putting up a useless resistahout any more pns behind it... But still, something about this feels off...', and soon on sed thought, I start to use Gravity Magic to attack him with the block, while at the same time, I urge my mana to reect with the golem.

  However, that slight dey proves to be fatal, as Jayr rests his hand on Miledi-'s chest and starts to t in a nguage I have never heard before, as his eyes almost seem to shine in crimson light, "To sumboion diakonêt? Moi, hê krystallinê basileia. Epigenêthêt?, tai?nion erebos, hai?nie krystalle (Let the ant serve me, the crystal realms! Be reborn, thou ribbon of irritation, thou eversting crystal)", and as soon as this verse in this strange nguage is spoken, the area around me bees frozen, and the golem Miledi- is encased, immobile in pilrs and spikes of ice, so cold that even my soul bound to the golem hidden inside Miledi- feel it.

  Realizing what he has just done I excim in wonder, shock, and surprise, "Wh-!? How did high-ranked magic—!?", but before I could finish, I realize that Jayr's spell isn't yet plete as he tio t in that alien nguage that gives me some mystic feeling of power, "Pāsais z?ais ton ison thanaton, hos ataraxia, Kosmikê Katastrophê!! (To all life, is equal ih, which is u! ic Catastrophe!!)".

  With that final passage, I feel the temperature getting even colder, a cold that I have never felt before, even my mana in the Golem and around me is totally frozen, uo move or do anything, and I also feel my own thoughts slowing down to a crawl, 'So... cold... not... even... Shi-... Labyrinth... is... so... cold...', and the st thing I hear is Jayr's voice as he ends his ts, "Kosmikê Krustallopegia (Frozen os)".

  Jayr POV - Reise Labyrinth - 2013

  I look at Miledi's Golem ying still ihe frozen pilr with a rough breath, 'Damn using this spell in this pce is a lot worse than I thought... The cost of using it more than tripled...', at the same time, I notice that we are starting to quickly fall toward the ground, and the same it is happening to all the other floating blocks.

  Catg my breath, I let out a sigh and say, "Okay... Now I have to get Miledi out of this golem... Kosmikê Katastrophê is so overbearing that it even froze the magic dispersion around it, if I wait for it to dispel my magic It could take a hell lot of time... but, if I simply undo the spell, Miledi with her personality could easily feign ignorand start the fight again... simply as a prank...".

  Realizing this, I look at the golem, then at the grouing closer and closer, and say, "No other way... I just have to disable this golem...", and so I gather all my strength in my legs using all the mana I have left to once again run Body Reinfort, then I jump.

  As I'm getting closer to the ceiling, I notice that the force behind my jump, pushed the pilr with the golem inside, even faster toward the ground and soon, a great roar and impact are geed as Miledi's Golem crashes on the ground f a big crater.

  At the same time, I quickly reach the ceiling and sping my body around to gee even more force, and with another almost deafening impact, I sm my on against the ceiling and use the rebound force to bouoward the still frozen golem with even more speed and power.

  As I quickly fall toward the golem, I focus and aim the sword tip at the golem's chest, where its core is located, and wait for the right moment to dispel my magic, at the same time, I notice that the tip of my bde is starting to quickly shine in a bright red light as the sword bumping into air molecules heating it up.

  And soon I see that I'm about to hit, so I quickly dispel my magid the moment, the golem is free from the frozen pilr, and soon after, a terrific impag sound is heard as my huge sword pierces through Miledi's Golem's Azanthium armor on the chest and buries itself into it without mercy reag the golem's core pletely crushing.

  Because of the impact, Miledi's Golem's body sank even more into the ground creating an even bigger crater and the light in the golem's eyes disappears.

  Having firmed that, I gradually loosen my power, a out a sigh of relief then I hear Eri nding behind me, and hear her say, "We finally defeated it... With this, Reise Labyrinth's st trial is certainly over...".
