In the underground palace, Lucien was running fast along the corridor like a shadow, and Sophia, after casting Speed on herself, was following close behind him. However, they could not move at their full speed since they had to stop and figure out the direction from time to time.

"Watch out. The door up ahead is dangerous. There's a magic circle behind it," Sophia said after closely studying the magic patterns around and comparing them to those on the map.

Lucien, who had been aware of the danger behind the door long before the warning, pretended to be lost and said while frowning, "What shall we do, then? Cracking the magic circle would be a waste of time."

Sophia was amused by Lucien's words, and it seemed that her fear had gone completely, "We're not cracking it. We are going around it. This is not a test from the Congress of Magic. Except for me, barely do anyone knows about magic. The rest of the candidates will either go around or wait until the magic circles become invalid."
