Confess System: Picking Up Girls After Girls, Try Not to Get Killed!

"Banish behind me… Banning… with your warhorse…I-I will deal with the situation…"

Viviana said, steadying herself against the rock wall. Her legs were weak, and an unmentionable dampness lingered, but she was determined to fight.

Even with Banning's abundant magic, he was only a second-tier combatant, no match for the third and fourth-tier demons.

Having recently accepted Banning's kindness, Viviana felt it was her duty to take responsibility.

Thus, the young girl, adorned with a veil and clutching her crimson longsword, stood before the young man, embodying the Silver Wasp Queen's regal stance.

Considering the numerous enemies and the complex, perilous terrain, Viviana decided on a swift resolution.

Before the enemies arrived, she assessed the nearby ravines and cliffs, noting which areas could be destroyed and which must remain intact. With her feet apart, knees slightly bent, and her crimson longsword pointed straight ahead, she awaited the goblins' appearance.

—(Crimson Sword Array: Annihilation.)

Summoning all the crimson swords she could control, Viviana aligned them with her outstretched arm.

The swords formed a circular array around the longsword, amassing a vast amount of magic power.

Under normal circumstances, she would not employ the devastating "Crimson Sword Array: Annihilation," as it would severely limit her subsequent magic usage. However, given the labyrinth's final stage and Banning's replenishment of her magic, the move was justified.

As the first goblin emerged in the distance, Viviana accelerated the infusion of magic into the Crimson Sword Array.

She meticulously manipulated the magic while counting the emerging goblins.

— (Two... three... four...)

The Goblin Wolf Riders, known for their hit-and-run tactics, were now forced to dismount and pursue on foot—an opportune moment to ensnare them all~

— (Success or failure hinges on this strike, my past self... please protect me from danger!)

— (Crimson Sword Array: Annihilation! Launch!)

With Viviana's command, the dazzling white light emitted from the crimson swords converged on the central longsword before shooting forth as a white laser beam, obliterating everything in its path.

As Viviana's thoughts manifested, the crimson swords surrounding the longsword emitted a dazzling white light. The light converged on the central longsword, then shot out from its tip as a straight beam of white energy, obliterating everything in its path, unstoppable and destructive.

Witnessing the scene, Tyler, standing behind Viviana, had to avert his eyes. If he continued to stare at the blinding white light, he would risk losing his vision temporarily.

However, even without seeing the scene, the sound of the energy stream shattering rocks and the agonizing screams of the goblins were enough for Tyler to know that Viviana's "Crimson Sword Array: Annihilation" was far superior to his "Flame Steed Rush."

(So this is a pure energy stream attack... utterly overwhelming.)

.

After the dazzling white light subsided, the intricate structure of the ravine was astonishingly altered, and a straight passage leading to the ground had been opened by Viviana.

Beside this passage lay the scattered remains of goblins and wolves, and even those who had not perished were severely crippled.

(How terrifying... Is this Viviana's true power?)

Tyler clearly saw that among the corpses were not only third-tier goblin elite wolf riders but also fourth-tier goblin wolf rider captains. However, whether they were third or fourth-tier, those who faced Viviana's previous attack were either dead or crippled.

As a price for such power, the Crimson Sword Array: Annihilation consumed as much as 3,500 points of Viviana's magic energy. Tyler could only use such a spell twice with this amount of magic consumption.

It is imaginable how terrifying Viviana would be if she had not lost the Pigeon Blood Ruby - Phylia, which could almost grant her infinite magic power.

.

"Alright, let's get out of here... quickly."

The backlash of the technique and the massive consumption of magic energy made the already weakened Viviana somewhat overwhelmed. She intended to move forward but stumbled and nearly fell.

Fortunately, Banning caught her in time and lifted her onto the back of the warhorse.

Banning's warhorse was quite understanding, kneeling down without being told so that Viviana could sit comfortably.

"Viviana, you're amazing! You look younger than me, but you can defeat so many demons with just one move!"

Banning's praise at this moment sounded a bit awkward to Viviana. The Crimson Sword Array: Annihilation was indeed powerful, but hearing praise from Banning, who had more magic energy than herself, made her feel like a child being praised by an adult.

However, years of professional combat experience allowed Viviana to set aside her personal emotions at this time. She believed that the priority now was to confirm Banning's identity and purpose for entering the labyrinth, and then formulate a new action plan.

"Banning, why are you here?"

Viviana was always straightforward, and she had to ask the questions she needed to know before riding out of the ravine.

Banning didn't seem to mind this direct conversation style and frankly explained why he appeared in the labyrinth.

After parting with Viviana, Banning, who admired her strength, gave up being a hunter and went to Sunny Town near the Sandrift Gorge to learn to become a bounty hunter. After a period of training and actual combat, Banning successfully passed the first advancement trial and came to Delis Town to continue improving himself while traveling.

"I heard that Delis Town was conducting some 'labyrinth raid team,' so I wanted to come and see. I didn't expect that there would be no guards at the entrance of the labyrinth, so I just went in."

"After entering, I didn't see any demons, but I saw a lot of corpses. I followed the sounds and came here, only to suddenly encounter a large group of goblin wolf riders. I knew I couldn't beat them, so I looked for a place to hide and found this ravine."

Upon hearing Banning's response, Viviana felt that he was quite unfortunate.

During their initial encounter, he almost died under Viviana's crimson sword due to her suspicions.

Their second meeting took place in the Sandrift Gorge, where Banning was caught up in an unexpected incident and nearly lost his life.

The current encounter could be considered the worst of the three; not only was Viviana herself in danger, but her two mentors, the Cardinal and Obsidian Elders, were also focused on safely retreating.

If Viviana had followed her original plan, she would have headed straight for the labyrinth exit after leaving the ravine.

However, she could not abandon Banning, her benefactor.

"Banning, do you remember the location of the entrance to the Delis Town Labyrinth? I'll protect you as we leave the labyrinth first."
