In the deeper passage, the members of the Loki Familia jumped down and landed firmly on the metal ground.

"This floor... there are no monsters or people with the clock?"

Alicia looked around nervously.

"Our move is beyond their expectations. It is too late for them to move their people. It is normal that we don't see anyone."

Tsukasa was calm, and everything was already within his calculation.

"Has everyone jumped?"

"...Ais-Ais-san is missing!"

Someone exclaimed from behind.

"Ais... She is very strong, so she should be fine."

Tsukasa gritted his teeth and looked up for a moment.

"Find the exit first. It should be close."

Now he could only trust Ais since he couldn't leave so many people alone.

With her strength, as long as she didn't meet Revis, she would be okay.

The metal walls around him were at least tens of meters high, and it was hard to climb since it was slippery. If it was other people, it would have been impossible for them to climb.

However, it was possible for him, but he had to take them out first.

'Wait for me, Ais.'

If he had teleportation, or the ability to create a clone, it would be okay.

Unfortunately, he didn't have such a thing, which made him sigh.

He took the crowd and set off again.

Unlike before, there were almost no enemies on this floor, and no trap was activated. Everyone was walking around easily.

"Why are you so sure that there are no enemies?" Alicia was a little confused.

"If you're the enemy and you can't catch your target inside a fully enclosed environment, what will you do?"

Tsukasa didn't answer. Instead, he asked her a question.

"Haha, of course, it's to catch us at the exit place!"

Raul took the first step to react and laughed happily.

Yes.

If you couldn't find the enemy in this place which was impossible to exit, then you had to block and seal the exit for the enemy.

It was a common strategy.

The man-made dungeon was in this situation.

They couldn't find Tsukasa and everyone, who passed through so quickly, so they could only wait at the exit and lower the gate at the exit and near the exit area.

"In other words, the reason why so many traps appeared before was that the exit was near?"

Everyone was overjoyed when they heard this.

"Amazing!"

"They're like an open book in front of you!"

"Then jumping down to this hole must cause them to panic, and they don't have time to stop us!"

"Let me follow you forever, Tsukasa-san!"

They became even more confident and happy.

Still, the reason why they could go out was because of his sense of smell, intuition, and ability to see detailed information about everything.

However, he wouldn't say it since it was quite embarrassing and it was part of his secret.

While his wit was partly the reason why they could run away, mostly it was because of his ability.

Anyway, it was better to let them go out since he wanted to save everyone first.

"Right here."

Suddenly, Tsukasa stopped in a certain passage.

"Hey! Isn't this a dead end?!"

Bete suddenly widened his eyes and stared at Tsukasa unhappily.

In front of everyone, there was only a dead end, and there was no passage at all!

"Calm down."

Tsukasa stepped forward and took out his Drying Pole.

The black luster from the blade caused everyone to chill, and they knew that just one stroke of his blade was enough to cut them in half.

Tsukasa swung his blade several times before he kicked down the wall in front of him.

*BOOOOOOOOOOOOM!*

The sturdy metal wall was kicked down, and a hole in the shape of a smooth rectangular was created.

"There's a light!"

"There's a passage!"

After the wall was cut down, a light invaded the dim passage in the man-made dungeon.

"I know this place! This is the 16th Floor of the dungeon!"

"Come out! We really come out!"

Some were overjoyed. Some burst into tears.

Many scrambled out into the dungeon-like believers who stepped into heaven after being tortured in hell.

"It's really the 16th Floor in the dungeon..."

Coming out of the man-made dungeon, Bete was full of disbelief.

"The man-made dungeon is really connected to the dungeon, but I didn't expect this would save us."

Alicia sighed in relief.

"Bete, you go and send Finn to Airmid and bring everyone out."

Tsukasa stood at the entrance of the dungeon and instructed Bete.

"What about you?"

Bete frowned. His eyes flickered, and there was speculation in his heart.

"I am going to save others," Tsukasa said calmly.

"No, I am going too! The rest can manage themselves!" Bete refused without hesitation.

"No, you better stay with them."

Tsukasa rejected them without hesitation.

"Only I can find everyone and find the exit. Even if we go together, it will be meaningless."

"...Damn."

Bete was unwilling.

In other words, he was useless.

"Be careful."

Alicia looked at Tsukasa worriedly.

"Prepare me a warm bath and soup. I am going to be back with everyone."

Tsukasa was about to enter, but Finn's voice made him stop.

"Tsukasa."

Tsukasa turned and saw Finn open his eyes weakly.

"...Try to bring everyone back."

"Even if you don't ask me, I'll do that."

Tsukasa left and disappeared in front of everyone.

Everyone understood that the next thing he was about to do was spread the light of hope to those in despair.

Finn sighed inwardly and knew everything was his fault, but he could do nothing in his situation. Still, when he thought the lives of everyone in the Familia were left to this young man, he couldn't help but feel conflicted.

"Bete, stay here."

"What?" Bete was confused.

"I am alright. You should watch it here in case someone comes out. Don't leave anyone behind." Finn's eyes were cold.

"You don't need to say that. I won't let them go after making such a mess."

Bete's expression was full of ferociousness since he wouldn't forgive this group of people that had messed up with his Familia.

It was a dimly lit room.

The length and the width were more than 100 meters. Like other rooms, this place was made of super hard metal, but unlike other rooms, there was a machination-like item for observation in the center of this room.

Around a machination was a wooden platform made from a thousand-year-old tree, designed with a statue of several people hugging against each other. It was like a historical creation that came from a far distance from the past and was wrapped with delicate green vines.

Above this wooden platform, there were many water-like screens spread everywhere, and those screens reflected the scenes of many places inside the man-made dungeon.

Among them were Tiona leading the team in embarrassment, Tione and Argana fighting one by one, Gareth's appearance bombarded with suicide attacks, and Riveria, Lefiya, and Filvis constantly walking through the man-made dungeon.

However, there was no picture of the main unit of the Loki Familia, the team led by Finn.

"Damn, how can they escape?! Where are they?!"

A man with a gloomy atmosphere stood in front of the machination.

His hair was long, and the bang almost covered his eyes. One could see the thick dark circles under his eyes. He wore a set of wrinkled black clothes that seemed messy and sloppy.

In his left eyeball, a red D-shaped letter was engraved.
