Boom, A massive fireball exploded against the wall. Silva moved out of the way just in time to dodge the fireball. The salamander that shot the fireball receded quickly into the darkness after attacking. This was the sixth floor of the labyrinth, and unlike other floors, this one had very little lighting. Silva could still see, but his enemies thought otherwise. He was facing a pack of level seventy flame salamanders, and they were using hit-and-run techniques to fight. Silva took the time to find out if there were any really strong ones amongst them, but it turned out that there weren't; all were right around the same level. Since that was the case, he wanted to take them all out in one swoop. He decided to make the best use of the enemies, and that was to grow stronger. Meeting his father, the Duke, and also that cloaked man had shown him that there was so much he was yet to know in this world. "Gates of Hell." He activated the spell that consumed all souls. He took his sword and slashed his hand, pouring out blood that turned to gas and then disappeared. The gate appeared and started sucking in all the salamander souls. They struggled, but against Silva's spell, it was futile. [You have killed a flame salamander 300EXP 150SP]x10 [You have killed a flame salamander 300EXP 150SP]x10 ... He gathered a ton of EXP from killing them, but it still wasn't enough for him to get to level 42, so he decided to use "Consume" on the souls inside the Gates of Hell. "Consume." [You have gained 100 EXP]x10 [You have gained 100 EXP]x10 ... [Level up, 2 free stat points] "Something that strong shouldn't be on this floor," Silva said. As he said that, he heard a cheeky giggle coming from all around the labyrinth. It seemed it was the labyrinth itself that made that laugh. "Fang, is that the voice that spoke to you?" Silva asked. "Yes indeed, Master. That was the voice," Fang said as he got ready to take another attack from the hydra. 'Then the labyrinth must be watching us for some reason,' Silva thought. He looked around and then yelled. "What do you want from us?" he asked. "Kill the hydra, and you will find out," the little voice said again. Silva was curious and wanted to know, so he decided that they would kill the hydra quickly. "Fang, take him out," Silva ordered. "With pleasure, my Lord," Fang said, and his body vanished, appearing behind the hydra. His claws crackled with lightning as he slashed into the base of the necks. He decapitated all seven heads at once. The body of the hydra fell to the ground and then vanished, leaving a small crystal behind. Silva walked to the crystal and picked it up. [Teleportation crystal acquired. Destination has already been set. Do you wish to use the crystal?] "Fang, come closer to me," Silva said, and Fang came close. "Use the crystal," Silva said. [Please pour some Mana to activate the crystal.] Silva did that, and the crystal lit up brightly. A magical circle appeared under them, and their bodies started disappearing. They vanished from the floor, taken to wherever that crystal's destination was set.
