The big tree that was shining brightly, gradually revived as the light spread out to every corner as if it was absorbing water from its roots.
[Ah, leaves…..]
Shia pointed at the leaves which appeared as the tree regained it’s vitality with each passing moment. It was almost like looking at the birth of life, Hajime and them were staring at what was in front of their eyes with a mysterious feeling, the big tree was quickly growing and it regained its bright green looks.
As a slightly strong wind blew by, the sound of the large tree’s leaves rustling around could be heard. Then, at the next moment, all of the sudden, the front of the tree trunk was split from the right and left and a cave appeared. It was a big cave which could fit several tens of people.
Hajime and them looked at each others faces and nodded to each other and stepped into the cave without hesitation.
Hajime was slightly concerned------would the other members who have not captured 4 great labyrinths actually be able to challenge the great labyrinth of the Sea of Trees, but it appears that it was pointless worries. Everyone was able to enter the cave without a problem.
It was probably like the other great labyrinths in the stance of, [If you want to enter, it’s fine as long as you have what’s necessary. However, your life is not guaranteed].
Hajime looked around the surroundings. But, there didn’t seem to be anything particular in the cave. It was simply a huge space which extended out like a dome.
[Is it a dead-end?]
Kouki muttered out doubtfully.
Immediately afterwards, the entrance to the cave began to shut as if it had been reverse-reproductioned.
The light from the outside gradually thinned out. Hajime scolded Kouki who instinctively panicked. When the entrance was completely shut, the inside of the cave was wrapped in darkness, immediately Yue secured a light source and held it up in her hand. However there was no need for it.
That’s because a huge magic formation appeared underneath their legs and it emitted strong light.
[Uwa, what’s this!]
