You call this magic?

"I am your master and you are my servant, do you understand?"

"Yes, you are my master and I am your servant." "Ethan" repeated dully.

It became.

The shadow's smile became even more charming.

……

basement.

Filvis stood outside the prison door, looking at the woman inside who was tied up tightly and had countless new scars on her body.

"What a mess, Riviere."

"Filvis...it's you." "Rivies"'s cold voice came from inside. "I didn't expect it would be you who came to see me. What, has Ethan already considered you a companion?"

"Come with me, we'll settle your mistakes later. If everything goes well, Ethan is now controlled by the divine wine, and in the future, he will become our pawn."

"Oh, that would be best." "Rui Weisi" quietly watched Filvis cut the shackles for her. "Take me to see your master. I owe you a favor."

Volume 2 Dungeon Encounter (I): Chapter 56 I Will Kill Ethan Myself

Everything went so smoothly.

Although he had never used it once, [Stovetop Lady] was a magic spell clearly written in his notes. Although it felt awkward to become a woman, he didn't need to care too much at this time.

Yes, the "Riviere" who left the prison with Filvis was actually Ethan transformed through the [Ashe Woman].

Although there was a certain difference in their heights, the difference was not that big. In addition, he himself came from a world where imagination determined the strength of magic. So after Ethan carefully observed every detail of Riviena's body, he completely became like her.

As for Rivia herself, she had long been transferred to another prison and was being guarded alone by Hestia, who had volunteered. In the Soma clan, apart from Soma, only Hestia would not be seduced by Soma's divine wine, so she could stay in an environment filled with the aroma of wine for a long time.

Although Hestia was very dissatisfied, she finally agreed reluctantly to Ethan's request.

"Anyway, you have to set aside one day for me from now on, okay?"

Ah, this seems to be the second girl who made such an invitation. Ethan hasn’t even had time to fulfill the first one.

But seeing Hestia's expression that looked like she was about to cry, he could only raise his hands in surrender.

"I swear, after this is over, I will fulfill all my promises. Uh, I swear to the Soma God!"

"Hmm! Then leave this little matter to this goddess!" After getting Ethan's promise, Hestia happily entered the basement with snacks and divine wine.

Having said that, there is actually no need for her to stay here all the time. After all, if the divine wine is given on time, there is no possibility that the other party will wake up. It is also impossible for Hestia, the poster girl, to remain missing forever.

After all, many people who have never come into contact with Soma wine were attracted by Hestia's beauty.

Whether this promise can really be fulfilled... depends on whether things go smoothly this time.

……

Taking advantage of the night, Ethan transformed into Riviere and followed Filvis to Daedalus Street, where he saw a masked man shrouded in a black robe.

"As expected, everything the Soma clan has now is based on the despicable abilities of Ethan. Without him, the Soma clan will be no different from ordinary rotten fish and shrimp." The masked man's voice was exactly the same as Philvis's, but there were many more ups and downs in his tone, and his tone was full of sarcasm.

"Then I'll hand the person over to you." Filvis didn't respond. Putting aside her and the masked man's identities, she actually quite disliked this guy's character. She explained the matter and turned away.

"Heh, she's still as afraid as ever to face anything. In the end, I have to help her clean up the mess." The masked man looked at Ethan, "Sorry for the wait. Let's go."

"Yeah." Ethan's tone was no different from Riviere's before. "Where is Alia now?"

"I know you're anxious, but don't worry." The masked man, unsurprised by this question, spoke with an inexplicable amusement. "You should first consider how to explain it to 'her.'"

"I have nothing to explain. If I'm not strong enough, then I'll become stronger and seek revenge on Ethan."

"Tsk, you're still so boring."

As they spoke, the two entered the underground sewer of Daedalus Street. Ethan silently recorded the route and followed the masked man calmly.

Although he knew that the entrance to the artificial maze was here, it was his first time here and he was very curious about the special features of this place.

Finally, Ethan saw a big door.

A gate with strange patterns carved on it that shouldn't be seen in an underground waterway.

After the masked man and Ethan approached, the gate automatically rose, revealing a long, dark tunnel. Only the cyan magic stone lamps on the wall could illuminate a small area.

This is an artificial maze, quite interesting.

The masked man took him through many twists and turns, up and down the stairs several times, and Ethan could only remember and restore the route based on his own stride length.

After becoming a magician, this practice is no longer difficult.

Finally, the two arrived at a place that looked like a monitoring room.

Yes, although it sounds outrageous, this is a monitoring room no matter how you look at it.

There was already someone in the room, a pale, gloomy man wearing light work clothes. He hadn't spoken since the two entered the room. Instead, he stayed quietly in the corner of the room without even looking at them.

Beside him, there is another person... no, it's God.

Ethan had seen the face of this god. It was Thanatos, the once wanted leader of the dark faction, also known as the famous God of Death.

In the center of the dark room was a stone pedestal wrapped in vines. The surface of the pedestal was covered with a pale water film that seemed to be shining through with moonlight.

This water film was like a surveillance device, broadcasting images from the artificial maze.

Rui Weisi said that "cameras" are a kind of pale flowers, which are basically hidden. There are even some in the dungeon, but the number is not as many as in the artificial maze.

I was already shocked when I heard Rui Weisi talk about it before, but I was really shocked when I actually saw it. Is this biotechnology?

There was a huge red orb under the pedestal. Ethan immediately recalled relevant information in his mind. This orb seemed to be a transit station. Some people who mastered the "key" to the artificial maze could control it through the "key" and then operate the door like the one Ethan had seen before.

"Ms. Rui Weisi, I'm so glad you're safe. I hope this incident won't affect our cooperative relationship."

"Are you mocking me?" Ethan said coldly.

It was Dionysus who appeared before him.

"I dare not, but if you need me, I can have Ethan brought here for you to do with."

"I refuse. I will kill him myself, right in front of Alia. I will skin and drain the man's tendons myself, wait until he bleeds to the last drop, and then let Alia watch him die." Ethan said this so fiercely, but his acting was a bit forced, but it was also in line with the psychological state of a woman who had just been "tortured".

Dionysus's smile seemed to grow even wider.

"It seems you and I have something in common."

"God and I have no common language, but I will repay the favor I owe you."

"Humanity isn't important," Dionysus said. "Instead, regarding the next precious child..."

"I'll go get it myself."

"If you can handle it, that would be great." Dionysus bowed slightly. "Then we won't bother you. After all, we can't stay here for too long."

Volume 2: Dungeon Encounters (Part 1): Chapter 57: The Eye of Daedalus

Ethan watched Dionysus leave the way he came. It seemed that he was just here to do a favor.

Presumably, he must be feeling complacent now because he has controlled "Ethan" and also gained the favor of Rui Weisi, the fallen fairy force.

Just laugh, and then you won’t say anything.

"Which floor are you going to?" At this time, the pale man in the corner spoke, "The passage, I will help you open it."

Barga, a descendant of Daedalus, the designer of Orario's iconic building, the Tower of Babel, had the ideal of creating an artificial labyrinth that rivals a dungeon. He even passed this ideal on to his descendant, Barga. In order to fulfill this dream, Barga even joined the Dark Faction.

As for the reason, Daedalus was simply fascinated by this huge secret place called the dungeon, that's all.

"Thanatos." Ethan ignored Barga and looked directly at the god in the room. "Where are the others? Aren't they in the maze?"

Thanatos' expression remained unchanged, but doubts began to arise in his heart, because Rivia almost never greeted him. She was only concerned about the mission of the Fallen Fairy, which was to find Alia, who had the blood of the Fairy. Today, she actually asked about his men.

"They are naturally busy. Don't worry, they won't disturb your work."

Thanatos thought for a moment and continued, "You need to act quickly. The guild has already commissioned adventurers to investigate the dungeon. They might discover the existence of the gemstone fetus beforehand."

Recovering Baoyu's fetus is the most important task for the monsters. After all, it is the plan of the fallen fairy spirits that they cannot resist. For the monsters, nothing is more important than this.

"In other words." At this time, "Rivies" surprised Thanatos and slowly said, "There are only three of us around here, right?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Thanatos suddenly had a strong premonition of danger.

The woman in front of me seems to have bad intentions!

As a god, he actually let his guard down when facing her.

"Valga——"

Just as Thanatos was about to shout, "Rivies" suddenly appeared in front of him, with a smile on her face that he had never seen before: "That's great."

The tone is completely different from Rui Weisi's own.

This person...is not Rui Weisi!

When he realized this, he felt a heavy blow on the back of his head. An ordinary person's body could not withstand the attack of a powerful adventurer at all, and he fainted immediately.

The Barga people were confused. As a craftsman whose only thought was to build artificial mazes, he was not interested in those twists and turns and was too lazy to pay attention.

I never expected that this weirdo who only obeyed the orders of the fallen fairy would actually rebel at this time!

He had never thought of such a thing that was impossible to happen in terms of probability.

"Valga, Thanatos Familia, level 4. If the intelligence is correct, you should have the key to the highest authority to control the artificial labyrinth."

Ethan appeared in front of Barga, grabbed Barga's neck with one hand, and lifted him up without giving him any chance to react.

Only then did Ethan see the red left eye hidden under the bangs, with a big D engraved in the center of the eyeball.

"Is this the Eye of Daedalus?"

"You, who are you?!" The Barga people were completely confused.

“‘Ring the clock at twelve.’”

So, in front of Barga, "Rui Weisi" turned into a smiling man.

Balga's eyes were bloodshot, he knew this man.

Because Dionysus has mentioned more than once that the man who must be controlled is the current leader of the Soma clan, Ethan!

"Surprise motherf○cker!"

Without giving Barga any time to react, Ethan's other hand condensed a dagger made of magic.

【Kalia Swift Sword】.

Barga's head flew off, and then his entire body caught fire.

After removing the Eye of Daedalus from his eyes that were still open, Barga's head also began to burn. Soon, his body and head turned into ashes and disappeared completely.

Then, Ethan looked at Thanatos who had fallen to the ground. The reason he didn't kill him now was to prevent his other men from knowing what had happened here. They still had to be dealt with one by one.

Carrying Thanatos, Ethan quickly ran back and forth twice in the underground sewer and with the Soma clan.

That is, he carried Thanatos back to the clan, secretly gave him a strengthened version of Dionysus's divine wine to control him, and then sent him back to the artificial labyrinth, pretending that nothing had happened.

The great thing about Dionysus's wine is that it not only controls the gods, but also makes it impossible for them to appear drunk.

After being controlled by the divine wine, Thanatos thought that Varga was just working somewhere else, and he himself held another [Eye of Daedalus] to help complete Varga's original work.

But even Thanatos himself didn't know that as long as Ethan appeared in front of him, he would ignore Ethan and execute every instruction given by Ethan.

Dionysus's wine is so terrible.

No one noticed anything wrong. After all, Thanatos didn't say anything, so no one cared where Barga went.

After doing all this, Ethan took the Eye of Daedalus and reached another corner of the artificial maze.

After opening the door, what appeared before my eyes was a Shura hell.

Apollo and his followers are... uh, it's better not to say it, it's an eyesore.

At the other end of the room were four thieves with dull eyes.

It seems that everyone is controlled by the divine wine.

Ethan breathed a sigh of relief. Damn, it was here.

He ignored the people from the Apollo clan and picked out a few people of similar build. He asked them to change into the clothes of the Soma clan and sit in their original seats. Then Ethan used levitation magic to take the clan members away.

As for Apollo... he didn't really want his magic to be tainted by the thing that was obsessed with Nan Tong. Since he wouldn't die, he might as well leave it here for now.
