Thus, the Boy Runs Through the Labyrinth Volume 1 Epilogue

Final Chapter

In Front of the Main Gate of the Sin City State of Greed

 
It was a clear, sunny day.
 
The sun god was high in the sky, shining brightly upon the land. Ur stretched his body, soaking up the sunlight, and exhaled deeply.
 
“What a beautiful day.”
 
“Indeed, it is,”
 
Shizuku responded with a smile, and Ur nodded in agreement.
 
“A perfect day for a journey.”
 
They had both earned their bronze rings.… Read more

After a few more conversations, Diz left with Akane, citing work. Though it was sad to see Akane go, it was better to send her home early from a tavern filled with drunkards.
 
“Hey, Ur! You survived!”
 
one of the drunks approached, slurring his words.
 
“Nana, you’re as bad with alcohol as ever,”
 
Her face was flushed red, and she was dressed lightly, revealing patches of skin. She held a bottle in each hand, looking quite a mess.… Read more

If Orlok decided not to seek revenge, it could lead to the group splitting up.
 
“That woman really had to pull that stunt…”
 
Even knowing it was venting, he couldn’t help but think that way. He pondered if there was any way to cleanly resolve everything, when suddenly…
 
“Excuse me. Honored members of the Red Ogre.”
 
It was then that Shizuku herself appeared before them, boldly stepping in through the tavern door, accompanied by their fellow boy.… Read more

Chapter 8: After the Festival

 
The sleep that followed the battle fought to the limit was blissful.
 
In the depths of unconsciousness, the myriad fears, worries, and anxieties that had been swirling in his mind while awake melted away before taking form. It was so comfortable that he wished he could stay there forever. His unconscious mind pleaded to remain just a little longer, lamenting that it wouldn’t be so bad to stay here just a bit more.… Read more

” ────! “
 
From when Ur was slammed into the wall, Shizuku’s judgment and actions could be summed up in one word: swift.
 
“[GAYHAHAHAHAHA, GA!?]”
 
She crushed the annoying insect, the gem Golem laughing triumphantly, and swiftly struck it with the “Magic Sealing Ball” she had purchased. Startled by the explosion, dust, and explosive flames, the Golem staggered back.
 
“[GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!]”
 
Swinging the remaining left arm as if to brush away, it had just lost one arm.… Read more

“We will participate in the subjugation festival. We will defeat the gem Golem.”
 
When Ur and Shizuku their intention, Nana, their senior adventurer, neither opposed nor supported them. Understandably, she was their senior but not their guardian.
 
However, she was worried.
 
Clinging to that hellish training ground, continuing to dive into the labyrinth at a ridiculous frequency, and then suddenly aiming for a bounty target after just a month as adventurers. Of course, she worried.… Read more

Chapter 7: The Gem Golem Battle

“Hey, this is bad! Get everyone to evacuate, quick!”
 
“Don’t let them all gather in one spot! The monsters will flock to them!”
 
“Stay calm! If you trip and fall, you’re done for!”
 
The supporters watching the Hunting Festival were in a frantic uproar as the battlefield descended into chaos.
 
Trouble was anticipated the moment participants made contact with the Gem Golem. It’s the most accident-prone moment, and there have been fatalities in the past.… Read more

Using the funds to upgrade their equipment. If they couldn’t outsmart with information, they’d outclass with gear. Shizuku’s decision was sound, if not perfect. Ur agreed.
 
“No, that’s not it.”
 
“…Huh?”
 
But this was just the beginning of what she had to say.
 
“I’ve spread this information to almost all the adventurers who wanted to participate in the hunting festival.”
 
Shizuku had started saying something quite outrageous.
 


 
“What… the hell!?”… Read more

The second level of the Deadly Sin Labyrinth Greed
 

 
The guild staff of the Adventurers Guild awaited in places other than the Gem Golem’ habitat. In order to prevent any tragic accidents from happening during the grand festival.
 
[GAAAAAA!!]
 
“Aghhh!! My arm! My arm!!!”
 
“Damn it! Die! Die!!”
 
“Man… it’s getting really bad here…”
 
Turner, a healing mage, was among them. She caught the pitiful participants who couldn’t even reach the Gem Golem and treated them.… Read more

The Entrance to the Deadly Sins Labyrinth of Greed: Plaza of Desires
 

 
The plaza in front of the Sin Labyrinth was the festival’s epicenter, bustling with activity. It was so lively that the Labyrinth’s ominous aura was barely noticeable.
 
Spectators gathered to watch the adventurers embark on their life-or-death missions, bets were being placed, vendors were doing brisk business, and some were drinking in the excitement.
 
However, the energy of the audience, vibrant as it was, paled in comparison to the madness-like fervor of the adventurers gathered at the center.… Read more
