Zen took a long time before waking up from his exhausted state.

Rubbing his eyes softly, the first thing he saw was Krista Dragoon's face, and a smile appeared on his face.

"How long was I sleeping?" Zen asked cheekily as he continued to lay his head on her lap.

"About 2-3 hours. Can you get up already?" Krista Dragoon replied and twisted his ear lightly as she complained about him being too heavy.

Zen chuckled softly and pleaded to stay like this for a while. "Phew, this has got to be the best sleep I've gotten since entering this labyrinth."

Afterward, Zen stood up since Krista Dragoon twisted his ear really hard this time since he wasn't willing to move away. 

Meanwhile, the battlefield was taken care of by Leila Dragoon already and Zen was surprised to not even see a speck of dust remaining from the corpse of Daemon Kaiso and Jared Kaiso.

"We have swept them into a corner since there was no other place to dispose of them." Krista Dragoon explained when she saw his eye glancing around the scene.

Zen calmly nodded his head and as he tried to open his mouth to speak, the floor trembled briefly as a teleportation array appeared in the center. 

Zen, Krista Dragoon, and Leila Dragoon became alerted and dumbfounded at the same time for the sudden appearance of a teleportation array.

The timing was impeccable that it waited for him to regain his conscience and ask questions to Krista Dragoon and Leila Dragoon.

"Seems like we're being watched yet have no idea at all," Zen exclaimed as he shook his head on how powerless he seems to get as time passed on.

"Mhmm, I agree with your thinking. It's like we're some chess piece for the mastermind behind the scene to move as they please," Krista Dragoon added as she also hated this feeling of being spied on without knowing who the enemy is.

Leila Dragoon didn't reply as she tried to use her mystic eye again to check around their surroundings for some detection device or magic but there was zero sign for it.

Leila Dragoon gave a helpless look at Krista Dragoon who realized what she was doing but didn't say anything else.

"My mystic eye couldn't detect any abnormal thing, almost like everything is natural. Either the teleportation array was truly a coincidence or there is someone spying on us with unknown magic." Leila Dragoon concluded and Zen was sure it was on the latter, an unknown magic spying spell.

He refused to believe in the word 'coincidence' since Daemon Kaiso could appear out of nowhere to them was definitely not a coincidence but was planned by someone. 

If Daemon Kaiso has the power to manipulate the rules of the labyrinth then he wouldn't have resorted to transforming into a demon and lose his conscience and reasoning.

Glancing at each other for a few moments, Zen decided to take the teleportation array.

"No other choice but to continue being a chess piece or puppet as we can only follow their rules. I don't want to stay on this floor forever where there is no sunlight." Zen exclaimed as he walked closer to the center.

Krista Dragoon and Leila Dragoon turned around to look at each other before nodding their heads as they followed behind Zen to the center.

Zen didn't want to take any risk as he held the two princesses tightly on the waist as they walked into the teleportation array. Similar to the process of their teleportation from the auction house to the labyrinth, they were able to get used to the nauseous feeling and landed in a different environment.

Unlike the gloomy and dark floor, the place they were teleported in was a bright grassland with sunlight blinding their eyes.

However, Zen could tell the sun was artificial since he couldn't feel any heat emitting from the sun and he was confident that they were still in the labyrinth.

"Well, at least we get to see some lights for once where we don't have to constantly use our mana to cast some fire to illuminate the light." Zen kept his hand around the two princesses' waists as he tried to lighten the atmosphere.

Although they have always met with dangers, it was better to keep up a cheerful mood when encountering difficult situations. Staying solemn and cautious every time would be a drain to their mind.

"At least let go of your hands so we can walk around freely." Krista Dragoon said as she pinched his hand that was trying to be funny since it was getting closer and closer to her ass.

Zen smiled bitterly as he released his hand from Krista Dragoon and pouted, "I just want to measure the size of your ass and see if it needs some massage to grow better."

Krista Dragoon's expression darkened when Zen spouted those words. With a chilling look, she cast multiple javelins that were inches away from piercing Zen to look like a porcupine.

Zen hurriedly raised both his hands up in surrender and pleaded for mercy. "I'm just joking, no need to get so serious."

"Hmph, next time you dare to judge a woman's body, I wouldn't just give you a warning but would just pierce your entire body with my javelins." Krista Dragoon scoffed as she dispelled her spell.

"Pfft, Zen will never change even if he tries to lie." Leila Dragoon laughed when she saw Zen is always courting death after getting a little bit ahead of himself in their relationship.

"Leila, make sure you don't follow his bad example. Lying is never going to do you good and will always end up backfiring when you least expect it." Krista Dragoon warned her like an older sister would do when educating them about men.

Meanwhile, Zen cursed her inwardly for saying lying is never going to do you good. 'Who was the one always acting like a pitiful woman to earn my sympathy in forming the alliance? Women, truly double-face people, unlike men who are straightforward in their intentions.'

"Well, look who we have here. The amazing youth that causes each of us an insane amount of pain and humiliation." A voice suddenly echoed as clapping hand noise could be heard from afar.

Zen raised his eyebrow in surprise to see someone else manage to be group up with them and it has to be your typical dumb arrogant young master.

"I just finished dealing with Jared Kaiso's arrogant young master incident yet another one already cannot wait for his turn. Damn, they act like I have so much free time to deal with them." Zen cursed aloud and stared at the group of youth.

However, Zen was rendered speechless when the group who utter such words were having tattered clothes and some were even injured to the point of bleeding. 

'Don't they know any healing magic?' Zen questioned inwardly as they met them face to face now.

"Hello Princess Krista, I'm Carlson and we met once before in the ballroom conducted by the imperial family." Carlson gave a noble appearance and bowed slightly to pay his respect to Krista Dragoon.

Only one word came to Zen's mind and that was, "Hypocrite!"

Zen spouted that word without even thinking and it instantly irked Carlson who glanced back at him maliciously.

Zen chuckled softly when he saw his glare and wondered if people always think he's an easy target that can only bark and not bite. 

"Stare at me like that again and I'll make sure you can still catch up with Jared Kaiso," Zen said with a chilling gaze in return. 

Carlson flinched briefly before regaining his composure and sneered, "Or what? You're going to use your flashy flame and burn me. Hahaha, let me tell you something country bumpkin, your flashy flame isn't anything special and I can beat you down with one finger."

Zen smiled and nodded his head. Afterward, without speaking anything, Zen used his movement technique and got closer to Carlson and punched him in the stomach, churning the inside to agitate.

It was the same move he did back in the Town of Ash on Aaron Flare who vomited like a fool. Now the same fate occurred to Carlson who talked without thinking much.

Not even a minute has passed and Carlson has clench his hand into a fist as he holds onto his stomach to prevent the nauseous feeling, only to be futile and start vomiting in front of everyone.

Of course, Zen had already gone back to Krista Dragoon and Leila Dragoon's side to cover both of their eyes in time to prevent such a disgusting scene from entering their eyes.

A few moments after the sound of vomiting and Carlson's group who had a pale expression in their face on the brutality of Zen for not giving a damn about them and straight up thrashing them as he pleases.

"If any of you dare to spout bullshit like Carlson, I will gladly assist you in getting rid of all that bullshit from your little tummy," Zen stopped covering the two princesses' eyes when Carlson finished vomiting as he stared at the rest of them with a kind smile.
