Dungeon Designer: Bringing Smiles to the World!

After defeating the kidnapped girl doll, Lia, Grace, and the other three boarded an elevator that was descending.

"Rumble..."

After an unknown amount of time falling, they finally arrived at the second level of the Dorne Dungeon.

That labyrinthine tomb from which there is no way out.

"Seriously, shouldn't we find Mr. Galadon and the others first?"

Grace held the hands of Leah and River in her left and right hands respectively. It was her first time entering a gloomy tomb.

"Don't worry."

Lia said confidently, "That Sun Knight already led me through this maze once, and I've memorized all the ways out!"

After saying that, Lia took the initiative to lead the way.

"And we should have faith in Galadon and Horn, and with Dylan around, his Arcane Eye will surely find the way."

As she spoke, Lia began to lead the other three to the location of the hidden teleportation chest in the tomb, following her memory.

Arriving at a seemingly normal stone wall, Lia swung her [Serpent God Scimitar] at it.

At this point, Leah was full of confidence, but then...

"clang!"

The Serpent God's Scimitar struck the stone wall, but only caused a sharp pain in Lia's wrist; the phantom wall and hidden passage she had anticipated did not appear.

"Eh?!"

Lia was stunned. After repeatedly checking her surroundings, she finally realized that she hadn't gone to the wrong place!

The Sun Knight opened the hidden passage here and discovered the hidden teleportation chest behind it!

Why can't I do it now?

Has the structure of this tomb labyrinth changed again?

"What's wrong?"

Grace, who was standing nearby, couldn't help but ask.

"Uh...cough cough cough."

Leah scratched her head somewhat awkwardly: "The structure of this maze seems to have changed again. It looks like we'll have to find a new way out..."

After she finished speaking, the tips of Lia's pointed ears turned slightly red.

There was nothing I could do; I had just boasted that I was going to take them out with me.

"It's alright!" Grace encouraged, "We'll definitely find our way out, and even if we don't, maybe we'll run into Mr. Sun Knight again and guide us!"

At this point, Grace suddenly remembered something: "Oh right, I haven't told Miss Lia the story of Astra, the homeland of the Sun Knight, yet, have I?"

As they continued onward, Grace began to tell Lia the long story of Astra's destruction that she had learned from Rogge.

If you only look at this scene, it's as if they're not in a maze of tombs from which there's no way out, but on a spring outing.

However, in dungeons fraught with danger and feeding on the negative emotional energy of adventurers, optimism may not be entirely a bad habit.

……

the other side.

Having already left the bottom of the pit, Garadon, Horn, Dylan, Alyssa, and Joel traversed another long passage, defeated some shadowy spider monsters known as "Stealth Followers" hiding in the corners of the passage, and arrived at the tomb labyrinth on the second level of the Dorne Dungeon.

"I hate spiders."

As Dylan stepped out of the passage, he pulled off the white spider silk tangled in his hair and muttered a complaint.

"We're here again." The priest Horn in the party looked at the familiar tomb maze. "I wonder if we'll run into that Sun Knight from last time."

Since being killed by the Three Divine Beasts Warriors, Horn spent several days in the Healing Church Library in Leman City after his resurrection, citing scriptures to refute the nonsense of the Sun Knight.

What kind of superhuman beings and laws are these? They're all completely fabricated!

Otherwise, how could there be absolutely no information in the church's scriptures?

Unlike his two teammates, Galadon, as captain, was clearly more pragmatic.

He had already started walking, preparing to lead everyone out of the tomb maze according to the route he remembered.

Meanwhile, Galadron was also thinking about how to defeat the last three powerful warriors who could wield the power of the natural elements.

Led by Galahad, the group of five quickly arrived at the stone wall where the Dark Teleportation Chest should have been placed.

But when Galahad swung his great shield, he smashed through the wall.

"ha!"

A royal ghost that had been hiding behind the wall for a long time suddenly darted out, its eighteen withered arms grabbing Galadron and giving him a thorough scraping.

"Thump!"

Galahad smashed the Royal Ghost with his shield, and looking behind the empty wall where there was no hidden teleportation chest, he couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

I'm teleporting to a treasure chest!?

After some thought, Galadon looked at Dylan.

"Use the [Arcane Eye] to find a way out."

Dylan nodded and cast [Arcane Eye] again.

Suddenly, the scenery before his eyes underwent a dramatic transformation.

Unlike the soul-scorching flames of sin I had seen earlier when fighting the Chaos Devourer and the jailer's maid in the crater.

Now, Dylan's eyes reflected a dazzling, eternal golden light!

Warm, gentle, healing, and intoxicating.

This was Dylan's first reaction.

But his keen eyes soon discovered that beneath the seemingly eternal golden light, the filth of death was brewing.

The death was embodied in a black mist, slowly eroding the gold.

"Dylan?"

Galadon's shout brought Dylan back to his senses before he could investigate further, and he prepared to find a way out of the maze of tombs.

……

"In the end, the kingdom of knights, Astra, was destroyed by a powerful evil spirit known as the 'Evil Eye,' and the remaining knights could only wander the world."

Some believe in the warmth of the sun, and the most helpful knights have brought their faith to other lands…

After listening to Grace's story, Lia's curiosity was piqued, and she couldn't help but ask.

"Where did little Grace hear this story from?"

Grace also told Lia about a small shop in Leman City that sells dungeon guides.

"Once we're out of the dungeon, I can go to that shop for Miss Liya! The shopkeeper there is such a kind person; he loves telling me stories," Grace suggested, and Liya readily agreed.

Seeing that the two were getting happier and happier as they chatted, Rivera finally couldn't help but speak up: "The most important thing right now is to get out of this maze."

Lia and Grace, who had been laughing and joking, immediately became serious after being told off.

The four of them had already been teleported once through the teleportation chest at the end of the previous tomb and were now heading towards the end of this current tomb.

If all goes well, there will be another teleportation chest ahead, which will teleport them back to the starting position of the previous tomb.

"We can only try to find the pattern slowly." Lia remembered what Rogge had told them when he transformed into the Sun Knight.

"The Sun Knight said that the reason this tomb is a labyrinth is to allow the soul energy that should have returned to the tree to circulate better. Therefore, this tomb labyrinth has certain rules and mechanisms, but we just haven't found them yet..."

Eh eh eh (⊙﹏⊙)！ ！ ！ 」

Before she could finish speaking, Lia suddenly widened her eyes.

Suddenly, Galadun and his group appeared around the corner not far ahead.
