That time I failed as an Author and got reincarnated in Tensura

Chapter 64: The student of Heroes/Labyrinth (2)

3rd Pov

The Labyrinth of Tempest, a 100 floors big structure made by using Ramiris's power...and under the supervision of Rimuru.

This was one of the main announcements Tempest had for the world, a revolutionary structure for the adventurers and scientifically, it was purely incredible.

For this, anyone with a sane mind could tell that investing time in this would be worthwhile in the long term.

And that's why, currently everyone focused on the large screen in front of them...Hinata and her team were shown stretching and getting ready on the very first floor of the labyrinth.

Dawn : (Seems like Luminous really won't come...well, she must have taken my words to heart.)

Having asked Dawn's opinion, he had given the vampire a detailed answer as to how things would happen during the demonstration.

She must be having fun while Dawn was stuck here for hours while Hinata tried to clear the labyrinth.

Dawn : (Well, I can at least see Hinata's progress...she trained hard lately.)

Sighing silently, he just resumed watching the screen...after a few minutes, it finally started...grabbing her sword, Hinata rushed in with the group of 30 paladins.
Shizue was also there to supervise, so she won't be fighting...

Ramiris : Am I late ? Sorry I got caught up in something...

Suddenly appearing in the room, her entrance was followed by a blinding sparkling light.

Embarrassed for being late at such a moment, she quickly settled down beside Dawn once Rimuru excused her.

Dawn : So where were you ? You stink Alcohol...

Ramiris : Velzard-san invited me and Luminous for a drink last evening...we got a bit carried away and ended up drinking the whole night.

Dawn : Heh, it seems you girls get along just well.

Ramiris : We sure do.

Smiling ; the two shared a quick discussion before returning their attention to the main event.

Hinata had already crossed the 20th floors as the early stages were too easy for her...each floor until now didn't last a few minutes just the time she discovered the structure.

Dawn : Where are the other two then ?

Ramiris : They should be having a hangover now...since I had to come here, I just snapped out of it but they had no reason to do so...

Dawn : They are surprisingly human...

Ramiris : Well, a hangover is one of the rare things that makes us, spiritual beings feel anything...

Dawn couldn't help but agree, since becoming a spiritual being...life has been quite dull because they don't need to eat or drink, they don't need to sleep, never run out of stamina...

Finding entertainment over thousands of years is hard, alcohol always helped in some way.

Dawn : Anyway, Hinata is going very well.

Ramiris : Yup, even if the lower floors aren't very populated yet, she is clearing them with ease...at this rate, she might reach the 70th floor in an hour.

Shifting back their attention to the screen, Hinata had just cleared the 30th floor, she was speeding up...even if the exploration part was decreased for the fighting one.

The knights still found a few treasures...their natural experience and amount was advantageous in this kind of raid.

Rimuru : Nice, she is doing well...At this rate, she'll reach the first boss monster faster than expected.
Gazel : This is very impressive...the treasure they collected is very good, some even found unique graded weapons.
