“Me? That’s impossible……”
“Well, you left us clues that allowed this wonderful guy to track.
Ark smiled and patted Burning Soul coiled around his waist. Then Burning Soul rubbed against his hand with a happy expression. That’s right. Ark managed to find the exit to this annoying maze thanks to Burning Soul. Around 3 hours ago, Ark had been sitting around when he suddenly stood up and said that they would escape from the maze in a confident voice.
“What does that mean?”
“Didn’t you say there wasn’t a way to escape?”
“Aren’t we like this because we couldn’t find the exit?”
“……Are you feverish?”
Shambala, Bread, Redian and Lariette looked at him with perplexed eyes. Roco then interrupted with an angry voice.
“Ark oppa isn’t someone who will speak nonsense! If he says we’ll leave then we are leaving!”
As expected, Roco was the person who knew Ark best. That’s right. Ark was such a person. He was a man of action. Bread scratched his head after hearing Roco’s serious voice and asked.
“…….Do you really have a method?”
“Huhuhuhu.”
Ark just laughed instead of answering. Ark shouted towards Burning Soul wound around his waist.
“Burning Soul!”
Kurarara, kurarara?
Burning Soul looked up at him with wide eyes. Ark smiled and spoke to Burning Soul.
“Burning Soul, using Stalking to find all the footprints in this area!”
Kurarara, kurarara!
Burning Soul nodded and dropped down to the ground. His head moved along the ground as he flicked his tongue. After a while, a huge number of footprints appeared in front of Ark.
“Apply filter, delete the footprints of the demons!”
When Ark gave the command, all the footprints of the beasts disappeared.
“Apply filter, delete the footprint of the foreigners!”
This time the footprints of the attack squad disappeared. After all the footprints disappeared, only one set remained.
-Search for information of the target footprint.
‘I found you Maseutyu!’
A satisfied smile appeared on Ark’s face after seeing the footprints. This was the method Ark devised to escape from the maze. It was thanks to Maseutyu that the attack squad members discovered the exit. He had run away and they had followed him. The place where he had escaped to was probably the exit.
‘In other words, that fellow is either waiting by the exit or had already escaped so we can follow his footprints out the exit!’
That’s how Ark thought about using Burning Soul’s Stalking. Burning Soul’s Stalking had already reached Master level so he gained the ability to filter out footprints. The search time had also extended by 50% and he could now follow the footsteps for 6 hours.
‘Maseutyu passed by 5 hours ago so I can still track him. If I remove the demons and the attack squad, the footprints belonging to the black magician chaotic NPC is obviously Maseutyu!’
It was a sure way to find the exit. There was no more time to hesitate.
“Everybody rise! From now on we will be marching towards the exit! Burning Soul, lead the way!”
Ark and the attack squad followed Maseutyu’s footsteps. So Maseutyu taught Ark the path.
‘If I didn’t use this method then we would’ve been wandering for a few days.’
Ark once again realized how complicated the Idea Maze was after following Maseutyu’s footprints. Maseutyu had used the shortest course to navigate the labyrinth. Yet it still took the attack squad 3 hours to reach this place. That’s because the path was still complicated. They had also been attacked by Evil Thoughts along the way so the attack squad had decreased by 800 people.
‘800 people were able to escape from the maze because of Burning Soul!’
Then Maseutyu glared and shouted.
“How dare you guys……”
“It is thanks to you that we got here. Why are you talking such nonsense?”
“……That’s far enough.”
Maseutyu’s face turned red after hearing Ark’s words. He frowned and stood up before yelling.
“Cheeky bastard, I’ll show you what true fear is!”
It was at that moment. Maseutyu’s body was surrounded by a red flash and his skin split open. Blackened mucus flowed out from the cracked skin. After a while, a spider like monster with two heads appeared. A red warning message appeared in front of Ark.
-The boss of Darkness ‘Jin. Maseutyu’ has appeared!
