Chapter 331 [Blood Eyes]
"That's a seal that even the Archbishop can't break. You're only a Level 5. How could you possibly do something like that?"
Marknick was shocked from the bottom of his heart. He didn't want to believe that Miss's magic sword came from the large dungeon in front of him.
He simply didn't want to believe that this magic sword was the one he had been longing for.
Marknick suddenly felt a stomachache and felt as if his wife had been taken away by someone.
"Flesman said that apart from the two people who have lived in the Great Labyrinth Kataklin since childhood, no one else can unlock that magic seal, so you must be lying to me!"
With a distorted expression, Marknick tried to convince himself, but when he saw the smile on Miss's face, a layer of cold sweat instantly broke out on his forehead.
He suddenly realized something and turned pale. His expression became dull and his tone was filled with fear. "You... it's you! One of the people living in the underground city is you!"
Miss looked at him with a slightly lazy gaze, "Not too stupid."
At this moment, Marknick realized something and hurried forward a few steps, almost sticking to Miss.
As their eyes met, Marknik's pupils dilated and he remained silent for a long time.
In Mis's sight, his whole body was trembling.
However, it was not the trembling of fear, but rather the trembling of excitement.
"I'm sure I found them this time, Father! I finally found them!"
Marknick's exclamation startled Mis.
"Are you really crazy? The fight hasn't even started yet and you've already called your father?"
Although the nearly insane Marknick was facing Miss, there was no Miss in his eyes.
There was only the pair of blood-red eyes in Miss's eye sockets.
"Living in that maze, no matter how strange and complicated the magic seal is, it can be solved. And with this color, there's no doubt about it. This must be the [Blood Eye]!"
Back when the Great Labyrinth Kataklin first appeared, Marknik was not called Marknik.
At that time, his name was Maini, and his father was the newly promoted swordsman Braid of the Holy Kingdom of Veratis.
Braid's teacher is the veteran swordsman Sarles, who serves as the dean of the swordsmanship department of Nolen University in the Kingdom of Fieris.
He once relied on a pair of blood-red magic pupils to move freely in the dungeon full of high-level monsters.
Sarles values the talented Braide very much, and the teacher and student are like father and son.
The old sword master even intended to arrange a marriage between his newborn granddaughter and Braid's eight-year-old son, Maini.
It’s a pity that Sarles treats Braid as his own son, but Braid doesn’t regard him as his father.
Because from the beginning to the end, Sarles never made it clear that he wanted to pass the [Blood Eyes] to him.
Seeing that his teacher was already old, Braide started to set his sights on those eyes.
In order to obtain the right to inherit the pair of [blood pupils], he schemed and plotted countless times.
Even the teacher's son and daughter-in-law could not escape the fate of being secretly assassinated.
Braide considered that the last three people who were qualified to be the heirs, besides himself, were the long-lost useless junior brother and Sarles' granddaughter.
This time, he directed his attack at Sarles' newly born granddaughter.
Prepare to intercept and kill the little girl who was being escorted back to the Kingdom of Phillis at the border between the Holy Kingdom of Veratis and the Kingdom of Phillis.
However, the opposite happened. Sarles noticed something was wrong and arrived in time, and Braide failed.
The teacher and the student spoke frankly and drew their swords against each other.
Only then did Braide realize that Sarles had originally intended to give him the pair of [blood eyes].
If he hadn't done those unscrupulous things.
Unfortunately, there is no if. Braide betrayed Sarles' trust, and a war broke out between teacher and student.
The students are in their prime and become more courageous as the battle goes on.
The teacher is approaching old age and is trying his best.
In the end, Sarles won the victory with difficulty while holding his granddaughter in his arms, while Braid lost due to lack of practical experience.
Just as the battle was coming to an end, a Paladin of the Church who came to explore the Great Labyrinth suddenly appeared, rescued Braid, and stabbed the seriously injured old Sword Master in the back.
The old swordsman Salles was worried about the safety of his granddaughter and refused to accept his fate and die first.
He held his granddaughter in his arms, burned out the last of his life, and rushed into the huge maze that had just appeared in the world.
In the years that followed, Braid went to the Great Labyrinth Kataklin many times to find the body of his teacher.
After nearly ten years of searching and waiting, he did not wait for [Blood Eyes] to reappear, but waited for his good-for-nothing junior brother who had been missing for ten years.
Raymond Giles.
At this time, Raymond has become a LV6 Sky-breaking Sword Master, and he came to the [Great Labyrinth Kataklin] to avenge his teacher.
The battle between fellow students was far more brutal than the battle between teacher and students back then.
But the only one who suffered such a tragedy was Braid.
Although both are at level 6 and come from the same school, Braid is no match for Raymond.
When he was on the verge of death, he recalled what Sarles said ten years ago.
"Your junior brother doesn't like to fight, and there's no need to fight. I don't give him these eyes, not because he doesn't want them, but because he doesn't need them. You and I are the same kind of people, and these eyes were meant for you."
Only then did he believe what Sarles said. Raymond was indeed not the same kind of person as them.
Maini, later known as Makenik, was only sixteen years old when he witnessed his father's death in battle.
He originally thought that he was going to die miserably, but Raymond did not attack him, but left a word.
"I'm avenging my teacher, and you're avenging my father. No one is wrong. I'm waiting for you."
Maini, who survived the disaster, was so frightened that he fled the scene without looking back, dragging his heavy legs, and ran back to the Holy Kingdom of Veratis.
Afterwards, Raymond found his daughter Lisia near the Great Maze.
Licia was silently guarding a distraught peer.
The boy was about ten years old, covered in dirt, and said nothing, with no expression on his face.
Raymond noticed at first sight that the boy's eyes were very similar to those of his deceased teacher. He felt pity for the boy and brought him back to the Kingdom of Firris.
Later he adopted him as his son.
