Chapter 208: 51st Floor, The Forest Of Mystical Things (5)
[Most beings tied here are twisted, but this one is especially so.]
The ghost spoke to Taesan, who was searching for the river.
[All who are bound here came seeking something. But I still don’t understand the gremlin's purpose.]
A hero who sought revenge. Lilis who sought magic. Ainzhar who was searching for his god.
Each had a clear and recognizable goal. However, the ghost could not discern why the gremlin had come to this place.
[They reject all others, immersing themselves in their own world, and desire to be like those who reside in the same place, even if it means strangling themselves. They won’t last long and will die, won’t they?]
There was no restriction against inhabitants of the labyrinth harming each other. For instance, Lilis felt fear and sensed death when she was forcibly moved to a room with an orc.
This meant the residents of the 51st floor could very well kill the gremlin.
[What exactly does it desire?]
“I think I know.”
The ghost tilted its head at Taesan’s response.
[You know? The mind of that madman?]
