His face became pale.
The monsters were dangerous.
But his senses were screaming that something far worse was coming towards them.
The new presence was ominous.
It was like…
Death.
The monsters suddenly started to fall like dolls with their strings cut.
They were dying.
Unlike Mira, George could sense the presence of Death killing the monsters.
All monsters fell within a few seconds.
The source of the ominous presence approached Mira and George.
The two noticed red lightning flickering over the walls of the labyrinth.
A gust of wind blew behind them—
"I'll be taking this key as a price of saving you two."
Suddenly, an unfamiliar voice rang behind Mira and George.
Their bodies froze instinctively.
Sweat poured down their backs as they felt true fear for the first time in their life.
The presence of Death was suffocating.
It was horrifying.
They didn't turn back to look at source of the voice.
Their bodies refused to budge.
Suddenly, the presence of Death disappeared along with the red lightning flickering in the vicinity.
The pressure holding them in their place was gone.
George and Mira fell to their knees.
"Huff! Huff! W-what was that?" Mira shivered. "Who rescued us?"
"It was the person who rescued us," George answered. "A powerful demigod."
Despite being thankful, no words of thanks left his lips.
Even recalling the presence made him shake in his boots.
Mira tried to calm her trembling limbs and checked the bag.
It had fallen behind them while they were fighting the monsters.
"The person who rescued us took the [KEY]."
"So that's why he rescued us."
George covered his face with a sigh.
Keys to Minotaur's chamber could be found throughout the Labyrinth.
It was not difficult to find the key, just time-consuming.
The real challenge was locating Minotaur's Chamber.
Barely anyone found it once every few decades.
After all, the Labyrinth continued to change every second.
Even if they found Minotaur's chamber, they would be wiped out by the mythical monster.
Minotaur was undefeatable.
It was common knowledge.
Mira and George heard a familiar notification sound.
George took out his device that was connected to his streaming camera.
[CuriousLady has sponsored 10,000 Coins to Mi&Ge.]
[Donor Message: I'll give you 50 times more money if you follow that person and capture their face on the stream.]
"H-huh?"
Mira and George felt their eyes would pop out.
10,000 Coins was equivalent to $25,000.
It was a huge amount of money!
"Our channel had a big fish like this?" George muttered in a daze. "But why does she want to…"
[CuriousLady has sponsored 10,000 Coins to Mi&Ge.]
[Donor Message: If you dawdle, you won't be able to track him anymore. Ask the question on the move.]
Instead of following the words of CuriousLady, they looked at each other.
'Do we follow her words? I'd rather not do it if it gets the person who rescued us in danger.'
'To be honest, she looks like a scout of an adventurer team or a Temple. Maybe that's why she wants to see the identity of the person.'
George and Mira talked to each other with signals only known to them.
They felt their guess was correct.
'We need to find him.'
The person who rescued them took the key.
As if someone chewed them and spat them out. fɾēewebnσveℓ.com
