If defeated the bosses of the 100th layer, light and dark dragons. In the end, Sylphy got mad at Ifu for getting excited and scared me and Belle and the others, and we even missed the appearance of the clear bonus. It's a little sad.
"Let's get the light dragon, the dark dragon, and the treasure stored for now."
"Oh, why don't you summon Nomos and have him appraise it?"
"I thought about that, but there's still plenty of time before the deadline, so I'll have the treasure chests from the 91st to 95th layers searched and then have them all appraised at once."
We conquered the site faster than expected and have plenty of time to search for the treasure chests. Since it is a cave, asking Bell and his team to search for treasure chests would be a quick and perfect way to search for treasure chests. Since searching for treasure chests is a fun pastime for Belle and her friends, we can kill two birds with one stone by saving time.
"All right. So, do we rest as soon as the treasure is stored? Or should I check the next layer?"
I'm not working, so I'll take a peek at the 101st layer. I'm curious to see what's next now that the 100th layer is clear. I'm curious to see what happens next when we clear the 100th layer. I'll take a break after that.
In my opinion, there is a good chance that this is the end of the labyrinth. After all, it is the 100th layer. Besides, from the labyrinth's point of view, in a long period of time, even the 50th layer has hardly been breached, and no one has even set foot in the 90th layer except for us.10 There doesn't seem to be much point in building anything after layer 0.
Sylphy says that the labyrinth attracts people with valuable things and eats their lives with every desire. Then there is no reason to build a place where people can't come.
"Got it. Then let's just store it and go to the next level."
"Yeah."
First we need to store the light and dark dragons. Compared to the state in which Sylphy lost his head, there is still enough material left, though it is pitted and scorched in some places. I feel a little sad because I can see traces of tears, but I will take good care of the materials and hope they will be put to rest in peace.
I wonder if the meat tastes like light dragons and dark dragons or ......? Since they have the same attributes as fire dragons, do they taste similar, or does the difference in attributes create a difference in taste? ...... I'd like to go to Marie as soon as I get out of the labyrinth and ask her to dismantle them, but... ...then we won't make it back in time.
...... Hmm? I remember that Ruby used to kill demons and use them as foodstuff in a gray-zone way. Maybe Ruby and the others can dismantle them. I'll ask them when I get back.
I can keep the non-meat ingredients in my magic bag since they might cause ...... trouble, but the king has been very considerate with his notices to the nobles, so I'll just pass the profits to the country through Marie. Other materials would be profitable enough, but dragons have a different impact.
This way, Mr. Marie can make money and the country can make money too. We don't have to involve the country directly, so all the better. The guild of commerce and the guild of adventurers will do well while ...... Marie's father will be happy to lend them money.
The Adventurers Guild has changed and I feel like I owe them a favor by offering to escort me, but if I give in, the Grand Master is going to come down hard on me, so I guess not.
The two dragons are stored and I've decided how to use them. Next comes the first clear bonus treasure. Looking at the dazzling pile of treasure, Belle and the others are playing happily.
They don't seem to be interested in the gold coins and other treasures, but they are interested in the ornaments and the gem-studded statues. Tulu is also interested in ore.
"What do you guys want?"
"Oh, yuta. Belle, I'll put this in my room.
At my question, Belle holds high a crown with a large emerald on it. Is that a crown? ...... Well, I've got plenty of gems to go around, and I don't plan on breaking them up. If Belle likes it, I don't think it's a problem to let her display it in her room .......
Maybe Belle just likes the color of the emerald, which is close to her hair color, but she doesn't know the value of the emerald.
"Okay. If Belle and Rain and the others have something they want to put in their rooms, bring it to me. You can put them up when you get back to paradise."
Excited by my words, Belle and her friends explore the treasure trove. When they find something they like, they happily bring it back to me, which is very cute. However, the items they bring are all national treasures, according to the manager of the clothing store in the Kingdom of Beryl.
...... the children's room is going to be like a museum. I'll be decorating it with furniture I made for Belle and her friends, as well as furniture I bought in the labyrinthine city. ......It's going to look like a mismatch, but it won't matter since only people related to me will be looking at it. Gina and Sara are going to be appalled.
"Do you want to choose Sylphy too? Next time the house is finished, you can put whatever you want in it, okay?"
"Hmm, that sounds fun, but I'll start with the regular furniture and enjoy the room. If you want to redecorate, I'll ask you to do so.
"Yes, sir. Whenever you're ready, just let me know."
To be honest, I think there is enough in the magic bag to cover every inch of the room with jewels, like a tea room of gold or a tea room of mithril.
If we ignore aesthetics, we could make the most expensive room in the continent of Eltrude. But if we do, it will be the most vulgar room in Eltrude. It would be better to leave it to Belle and the others' innocent sense of style.
We stored all the treasures in the room while chatting with Belle and the others. There were a lot of magical tools and other things that Gina and I could equip ourselves with. When we get back to paradise, should we update everyone's equipment, including mine? I have a feeling it will be a fun, cosplay-like event.
"Well, let's check out the 101st layer for a bit, and then we'll have dinner."
"Kakunin. Gohan" "kukyu" "new thing" "kukyu" "kukyu" "kukyu" "kukyu" "kukyu!" ......"
For the Belles, rice is a more important response than the next layer of the labyrinth. Tulu looks like a boy and seems to be interested in the new demons. Rain, Tamamo, and Moon seem to be pleased with the food, judging from their reactions, though I can't understand their words. We go downstairs to listen to the dinner requests of Belle and the others.

"............ Hey Sylphy, does this pattern mean the end of the labyrinth?"
After going down the stairs, we found a door that was even more gorgeous than the previous boss's rooms. It should have led to the cave, but there was a new pattern.
"Maybe that's what it is. It is possible that the new pattern is because we have crossed the 100th layer, but it doesn't seem to make sense to place the bosses in a row. If you want to buy time, it would be more efficient to make a vast and complicated maze.
That's right. If the labyrinth has a will, it would know that it will be beaten up by Sylphy and the others even if it has a powerful boss, and there would be no boss room if we want to buy time. Or maybe it will be a battle that will wipe out the labyrinth, though I can't ...... imagine that even a great spirit can't make it happen.
"Let's go in anyway. Sylphy, make sure the windshield is up."
"Okay."
I ask Sylphy to put up a wind wall, open the gorgeous door, and step into the 101st layer.
"...... That's the core of the labyrinth, right?"
Yes, it is. I've never seen it before, but it's definitely the core of the labyrinth.
Sylphy gazes at the core with interest. It seems that there is no danger at the moment.
"......? Is this the first time that Sylphy has seen the core of the labyrinth too?"
If you've lived as long as Sylphy, you must have at least seen the core of the labyrinth before, since you're so curious.
"Yes, spirits don't enter the labyrinth without a contractor. The only thing I have seen is the core that was taken out of the labyrinth. They were much smaller than this core.
I remember when I was training Mel in the labyrinth, I turned away Meraru who tried to follow me.
"It's blinking really hard, isn't it?"
"Yes, it's blinking really hard. Are they scared?
"Maybe he can hear Sylphy's voice? Maybe that's why he reacted to the word core being brought up."
"I wonder if that's true? Hey, labyrinth core. If you can hear me, stop that shiny blinking thing. Or I'll cut you in half."
The core of the labyrinth blinks furiously without changing.
"I guess you didn't hear me. My persuasion didn't work."
Sylphy says, tilting her head. It's more of a threat than a persuasion. But if I were to hear those words, I'd either stop blinking immediately or get so scared that I'd blink even harder, so the fact that there's no change in my blinking suggests that they can't hear me.
Before I know it, Bell and his friends, interested in the blinking labyrinth core, are messing around with it in an amusing manner. Little ones, don't be careless in approaching anything that you don't know what's going to happen. I don't need your reports of "Yuta, shiny, shiny" because I can see it! Well, it seems that Bell and the others have not changed when they approach, nor have they been seen.
"So it's simply because I'm here that it's scared. Is it possible that they are happy?"
"I don't know. If they want to get out of the labyrinth, that's a possibility, but if they want to get out, they will make the labyrinth easier to clear, and I don't think that's very likely."
Well, that's very convincing.
I had thought about the possibility of clearing the labyrinth, but when I saw the actual core of ...... the labyrinth, I did not know what to do. If we remove this core, does it mean that we have cleared the labyrinth?
"Sylphy, the labyrinth is cleared when the core is removed, right? Can I just take it off?"
Oh, the cores are blinking even harder. I don't want it to be removed, and it seems to understand my voice.
"If you take the core of the labyrinth, you will conquer the labyrinth, but in return, this labyrinth will be slowly destroyed, right? I don't mind if you destroy it, but won't Marie and the others be bothered?"
"Of course Marie and her friends will be in trouble. It is a labyrinth city, and if the labyrinth were to disappear, it would have a great impact on them. But does the labyrinth have to be destroyed? Aren't you an enemy of humanity or something?"
"If it's a controlled labyrinth, it can't be an enemy of humanity. It will not be overrun with demons, and the only ones who will lose their lives will be adventurers who are aware of the dangers. For this country, the labyrinth is a useful resource.
...... It doesn't seem to be a pattern of some noisy novel that the world will be destroyed if the labyrinth is not destroyed. It seems to be more like a pattern of a controlled labyrinth where human beings coexist. If that is the case, ...... it would be a scandal if we remove the core of the labyrinth here.
The labyrinth cores that Sylphy has seen and taken out of the labyrinths are probably unmanaged, stray labyrinths. It seems that the cores can also indicate their intentions by blinking, so let's not take the cores and try to communicate with them in various ways. First of all, we need to tell the flashing core that we do not intend to remove it.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!

But if I were to hear those words, I'd either stop blinking immediately or get so scared that I'd blink even harder, so the fact that there's no change in my blinking suggests that they can't hear me.Before I know it, Bell and his friends, interested in the blinking labyrinth core, are messing around with it in an amusing manner. Little ones, don't be careless in approaching anything that you don't know what's going to happen. I don't need your reports of "Yuta, shiny, shiny" because I can see it! Well, it seems that Bell and the others have not changed when they approach, nor have they been seen."So it's simply because I'm here that it's scared. Is it possible that they are happy?""I don't know.If they want to get out of the labyrinth, that's a possibility, but if they want to get out, they will make the labyrinth easier to clear, and I don't think that's very likely."Well, that's very convincing.I had thought about the possibility of clearing the labyrinth, but when I saw the actual core of ...... the labyrinth, I did not know what to do. If we remove this core, does it mean that we have cleared the labyrinth?"Sylphy, the labyrinth is cleared when the core is removed, right?Can I just take it off?"Oh, the cores are blinking even harder. I don't want it to be removed, and it seems to understand my voice."If you take the core of the labyrinth, you will conquer the labyrinth, but in return, this labyrinth will be slowly destroyed, right?I don't mind if you destroy it, but won't Marie and the others be bothered?""Of course Marie and her friends will be in trouble. It is a labyrinth city, and if the labyrinth were to disappear, it would have a great impact on them. But does the labyrinth have to be destroyed?Aren't you an enemy of humanity or something?""If it's a controlled labyrinth, it can't be an enemy of humanity. It will not be overrun with demons, and the only ones who will lose their lives will be adventurers who are aware of the dangers. For this country, the labyrinth is a useful resource....... It doesn't seem to be a pattern of some noisy novel that the world will be destroyed if the labyrinth is not destroyed. It seems to be more like a pattern of a controlled labyrinth where human beings coexist. If that is the case, ...... it would be a scandal if we remove the core of the labyrinth here.The labyrinth cores that Sylphy has seen and taken out of the labyrinths are probably unmanaged, stray labyrinths. It seems that the cores can also indicate their intentions by blinking, so let's not take the cores and try to communicate with them in various ways. First of all, we need to tell the flashing core that we do not intend to remove it.
