Chapter 741 Return to the ground
In previous battles, Hisser had demonstrated the ability to enlarge and reduce things. Although he relied more on the power of the Lord of the Labyrinth to achieve this at the time, he himself could also cast magic with the same effect.

Just trying to shrink the entire maze to a size that could be carried was a huge challenge for the magic power he possessed.

However, Hisser simply said:
"Although the magic power may not be enough, but with all the life force I have left, I should be able to do it."

The average lifespan of an elf is 500 years. He has been able to survive until now because of the 'curse of immortality' imposed by the Lord of the Labyrinth. After the demon was destroyed, his life also entered a countdown.

Therefore, it didn't matter to him whether it was his previous conviction or the fact that he had to use his remaining life to perform magic. As long as he could fulfill the wishes of Delgaru and Yaad, it was enough.

Fujimaru Ritsuka scratched her cheek in embarrassment. She felt that it was useless for her to hold this maze, but seeing the two people's firm attitude, she could only reluctantly agree:
"Okay, but there's no need to use life force or anything like that. If you don't have enough magic power, let me help you."

"For the rest of the time, you should stay together."

Hearing this, Hisil shook his head subconsciously. Now that his revenge had been achieved, he no longer had any attachment to this world. He might as well follow Delgaru's footsteps and leave...

However, at this moment, he heard a very happy voice from Yaad beside him:
"Thank you so much, Ms. Ritsuka!"

He turned his head to look at Yaad's profile, opened his mouth to say something, but in the end he didn't say it.

Although he had no regrets, he still felt indebted to Yaad and the villagers of the Land of Gold.

...Then stay with them for a while longer.

Try to make up for past mistakes in the short time left. If it were Delga, he would definitely ask him to do the same.

Thinking of this, Hisser was no longer prepared to say anything more. He looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka again and whispered awkwardly:

"Thank you, thank you..."

……

...

In addition, there are some minor problems, such as the existence of Itsuzumi. As an artificial orc, she should be captured, and the elves were originally prepared to do so.

But after Lision took one look at a half-naked male elf in the Canary Team, he turned around and said something to his companions, causing the elves to give up trying to capture her.

However, at this time, Izuzumi took the initiative to find the other party.

"I say, you are also an artificial orc, right? I just saw you turn into a werewolf. But why can you turn back into a normal person? Can I do it too?"

"Ok?"

Lision looked at her in surprise, then said casually:
"To become a normal person again, you just need to suppress the beast part. But you can't do that. Rather, you are the part that needs to be suppressed."

"Huh? What do you mean?"

"I am based on humans, with a bit of the beast's soul added in. Your situation is the opposite, with a beast's foundation, with a bit of the human soul added in. You didn't suppress the human part, so you have always maintained the appearance of a beastman."

"…I don't understand. Can't you explain it more simply?"

“…I’ve made it very simple.”

"Tsk. You can't even speak clearly!"

"..."

Izuzumi, who didn't understand, walked away cursing, while Laos and his group, who heard the entire conversation, showed an indescribable expression because of the shock of the facts.

Mashu couldn't help but ask Lision:
"Um, is what you just said true?"

"Of course!" The elf who was the height of a child suddenly interrupted, patted Lision on the shoulder, and grinned:
"This guy is a master of this type of dark magic. Otherwise, why do you think we didn't arrest her?"

Lision is a prisoner in the Canary, charged with studying black magic and transforming himself into an artificial orc.

Everyone immediately understood that human laws only apply to humans, and Itsuzumi's essence is not human at all, so he was not arrested.

But how to explain this to her?

Looking at Izuzumi who looked annoyed, Laos and others felt a little embarrassed.

……

...

Putting aside other minor issues for the moment, the Canary Team opened the portal to return to the ground. They had no objection to the handling of this maze, but they still had to deal with some paperwork and some follow-up issues after returning.

Hisser and Yaad will have to stay in the maze for the time being. They need to contact the villagers in the Golden City. Considering Hisser's situation, both sides may need some time to resolve their conflicts.

Ritsuka Fujimaru and others chose to follow the elves back to the ground. Until they separated from the Canary Squad, the other party did not ask about the situation of Marlucil and Faline, which seemed to mean that their problems were not exposed, which made Laos and others finally breathe a sigh of relief.

"Finally home!"

Looking at the long-lost blue sky and white clouds above her head, Malucier let out a long sigh of relief, and then excitedly suggested:
"Let's have a celebration party tonight. I know a great restaurant! I haven't had proper food in a while!"

Everyone readily agreed, but soon discovered that things were not that simple.

After the Canary Team arrived here, they quickly blocked the maze area and drove out all the adventurers in the maze.

Therefore, the adventurers, who did not dare to openly disobey the orders of the Western elves and had no way to make money, as well as the merchants who did business, chose to leave.

In just a few days, the once prosperous and bustling village fell into decline. Only a large number of empty stalls and hotels, as well as a small number of villagers who originally lived here, were left. Compared with the previous scenes, it seemed particularly desolate.

"Not long ago, this was a prosperous village..."

Laos couldn't help but sigh, but since they already knew the truth, they couldn't deny the elves' behavior.

Then he pounded his hands and said:
"Although all the restaurants are closed, luckily we still have a lot of food in our backpacks. We can replace the celebration banquet tonight with the monster dishes made by Senxi."

"give it to me."

"No--!!!"

Sensi's response and Marlucil's scream came together, and Kabul quietly moved away from Laos. Although he had been forced to eat monsters before, he still couldn't understand this behavior...

"——Mr. Kabul, please call your companions to come along. We are probably the only adventurers on the island now anyway."

Hearing the invitation from Fujimaru Ritsuka from behind, Kabul froze. While he was resisting in his heart, he subconsciously showed a social smile on his face and nodded happily:
"…Thank you for the invitation. I will bring my companions with me."

——I hate myself!

Looking at Kabul's expression, Fujimaru Ritsuka smiled and said:
"Don't worry, I know not everyone can accept monster cuisine, so I will prepare normal food here as well."

"Thank you."

Kabul finally breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, but he did not doubt whether the other party could be prepared.

After all, the other party is someone who can travel through the world and make demons disappear.
