A clue about Enyo's conspiracy

The full moon shone in the night sky and fell on the square of Daedalus street.

The holy beam of light broke through the sky and pieced through the ceiling of the man-made dungeon. A large number of adventurers jumped out of the hole and returned to the surface with exhaustion and a sigh of relief.

Tsukasa put down a few people he caught because they could jump steadily on the such unbalanced ground before he moved his gaze to Daedalus Street in the distance.

The commotion behind them and the uproar in the city weren't within their consideration. Instead, they ignored them.

The most important thing was to note the damage caused by the battle.

After returning to the surface, Finn immediately began to organize the rescue and let Tsukasa, Ais, Bete, and the others go to the man-made dungeon to save various teams inside, along with their Familia members, who were still inside.

After half an hour, everyone returned to the square.

Only the living.

The reason why so many people died was that the green flesh continued to grow to the top floor and even rushed out toward the entrance of the man-made dungeon.

However, after it reached the entrance, the green flesh stopped its movement and didn't grow any longer, falling silent like it was in a deep sleep.

They tried to destroy the green flesh, but their attempt hardly showed a result.

"How about the loss?"

On the square, the leaders of the various Familias reunited, and Finn asked them this question.

"We have lost a few members of our Familia."

"We are the same."

Hephaestus Familia and Hermes Familia were in deep pain from the loss of their Familia members.

Few people died at the beginning of the outbreak of green flesh. Fortunately, when they escaped, there was no death.

The Loki Familia and the Ganesha Familia had better luck since they entered the room first, so the gate closed in time, and no one was killed by the green flesh.

"So, the biggest loss is..."

Finn looked at the crowd in front of him.

Among the leaders of the Familias that joined this operation, one person was lost.

The white magician, who was mocked as the "Banshee," the elf in white attire—Filvis Challia.

"The Dionysus Familia... is annihilated."

Finn's expression was awful.

Even though he was used to death, the fact that entire Familia members, more than 100 people, were killed under his command still made his heart cloudy and depressed.

"Because God Dionysus was killed, all the Familia members, including Filvis, lost their blessing, and everyone became ordinary people, so they couldn't escape."

Riveria gritted her teeth and blamed herself.

"It's also because of my incompetence that I couldn't save anyone."

The high-level adventurers could escape from the green flesh.

However, the running speed of ordinary people was impossible to outrun and escape from the green flesh, so all the members of the Dionysus Familia were swallowed up by the green flesh. Even the captain, vice-captain, and everyone were not an exception.

In the distance, Lefiya stared blankly at the man-made dungeon as if she had lost her soul.

Haruhime was by her side, trying to wake Lefiya up, but Lefiya didn't give a response.

Lefiya had a good relationship with Filvis, so good that even Filvis was willing to teach her Dio Grail, the short-chanted barrier magic.

"It's not your fault. It is impossible for anyone to handle that situation."

Finn wasn't in a place to say something like that, so Shakti said those words to Riveria.

Still, Riveria's body was slightly dirty, but before, she was worse, and her pretty face was covered by dust even though it had turned gray. Usually, it would be impossible for her as an elf to be in such a situation, but she didn't have time to care about that. However, Tsukasa couldn't bear it and helped her to clean up her face.

Tsukasa knew words weren't enough for Riveria to forget what had happened. The only thing he could do was to stay by her side during her weakest time. Still, he didn't stay with her all the time since he also had saved the rest of the people, and he noticed something strange on the green flesh.

"However, we can't stay like this. We have to do something about this man-made dungeon."

Finn's gaze was cast on the exposed green flesh in the distance, and his eyes were solemn.

"Enyo has deceived the Evilus to start his conspiracy. He has a bigger goal than the Evilus, and we can't let him continue since we won't know what will happen if this continues!"

When everyone heard those words, they nodded solemnly and helplessly.

Some wanted to escape, but they knew they couldn't.

As one of the strongest Familia in the Orario, they had a responsibility to protect the Orario. Even if they don't want to, the guild would definitely issue a quest, so no one could refuse.

"Finn, come here!"

Suddenly, Finn heard a call.

He walked near the dungeon entrance and saw Tsukasa sticking his hand on the green flesh. He didn't know what he was doing, but he approached him.

"Hey, isn't that dangerous?"

Finn couldn't help but say since those green flesh had swallowed many people before.

"Don't worry. That green flesh won't do anything now. I have tried it, and there's no danger."

Tsukasa gestured for Finn to come closer again.

"More importantly, you should put your ears close. There seems to be a voice inside."

Voice?

Finn squinted his eyes.

He approached the green flashes and put his ear on it.

Er...

"......"

When Finn listened carefully, he could hear a voice coming from the green flesh.

"Is this... a song?"

Finn frowned and listened carefully.

It wasn't just one voice, but there were multiple voices gathered together as if trying to welcome something.

It was like a ritual.

"What the hell is this voice?"

Finn was lost in thought.

"I don't know yet... Oh, right, the mural!"

Tsukasa only remembered and thought about the mural he had seen before.

"Mural?"

"Yes, that's what the notes said. The suspicious thing inside the man-made dungeon that Enyo asked to move inside was the mural of the evil dragon."

"Tell me more about it carefully."

Finn made a gesture to tell him everything."

---

The aftermath of the war in the man-made dungeons ended with a double victory for the coalition Familia groups and Enyo.

Evilus became the only loser. Their homes were stolen, their executives died, and their god returned to heaven. Even those men in black cloaks were eaten up by the green flesh.

However, it was all thanks to them that they were able to see the mastermind behind everything, Enyo, had appeared.

Enyo destroyed the Dionysus Familia as soon as he made a move, occupied the man-made dungeon, created a dangerous green flesh, and turned the entire man-made dungeon into something like a ritual.

"Damn it! I can't find it at all!"

Tiona looked at the tower of books, and her face was miserable.

"What is the evil dragon? What are six people? I can't find anything at all! Dammit, when I am busy with this, Tsukasa also has gone somewhere! What if he is caught by another vixen? One Riveria is enough!"

"Stop complaining! Just find it as soon as possible! Don't you like the hero story the most?"

Tione said impatiently. "Look, even Haruhime is working hard to search for the story!"

"....." Haruhime looked at Tione and wondered why Tione didn't help.

"You should also work hard too, or else you won't be praised, captain! And I won't be praised by Tsukasa either!"

"You don't need to worry. If you work hard to find it, the captain will also praise me."

"Shameless! Just work, Tione!"

The two started to bicker at each other before punching and kicking.

"Ah, um... Tiona-chan, Tione-chan, please stop..." Haruhime panicked.

"You two, please be quiet..."

Guild staff girls in uniform stopped them nervously.

Tiona and Tione withdrew their fists in embarrassment and coughed.

"Still, leaving aside our Familia's library, why can't we even find a single clue in the guild's library? It's already impossible to find it!"

Tiona couldn't help but complain and sighed since it was really impossible to find anything.
