Chapter 94: Expedition Or Fourth One
After arriving at base, Izumi left to meet with Hajime with Grayfia following him and others went on guide mode showing the whole castle to Myu and Remia, who was still feeling down.
Hajime and Yue, as expected didn't panic while Kaori, on the other hand had a worried expression.
Even though she went on various exploration with her classmates. She never fought, only healed the injured.
So in fact, she goes into the category as Remia.
However, after a lot of persuasion from her bestie, she gathered her courage and made up her mind to fight alongside her Hajime as felt her current strength won't be enough to make Hajime accept her.
Izumi shrugged as he would rather think about his plans than deciding who'll go or not.
(A/N: This'll be last time I wrote a whole chapter on a labyrinth. And from now on, I'll skipped the whole part.)
So after a night's rest, they all left towards the bottom of western sea near Eriksen.
How?
Oh, Come on!
Izumi somehow managed to mark the location after he found it by a fluke when he was travelling with River.
(A/N: This proves how great Izumi's power is, as even the readers didn't notice, more less the Author.)
So they all teleported to the designated location and were dumbfounded when they saw nothing, only waters.
Izumi smirked and took a pendant of a woman holding a lamp and held it in front of a full moon and a light passed through the slot where the lamp was supposed to be.
This caused the labyrinth to rise from the sea floor and this was the only labyrinth where challenges need to have already cleared another labyrinth to enter.
Izumi, Grayfia, Tio, Hajime and Yue had already cleared the three Labyrinth, whilst Shia two and Shizuku and Kaori were only one, i.e., The Oscar Orcus.
Shea didn't clear the first one since it was not needed.
So all of them had qualifications to enter.
The horror began when they crossed the second floor inside the bottom of the ocean. They faced various sea creatures, surprisingly every sea creature they encountered ignored Izumi and only attacked the rest.
Then they were separated by huge waves, leading into different rooms which showed illusions of Ehito's reigns and history of Tortus. Also the illusions turned hostile and attacked them...
Fighting for hours somehow others defeated the illusions after finding the weakness.
Izumi could have stopped the wave but chose not to since they would be able to get stronger and learn to be independent.
By the way, with Izumi only Grayfia and Shizuku. This arrangement made Izumi curse the plot armor. Although only Shizuku fought hard while Izumi trained with his Space magic and Demonic energy under Grayfia's tutelage.
Grayfia got to know about Shizuku a bit and approved of her inside her heart.
She could tell that this girl had no ulterior motives and her feelings for Izumi were genuine.
Hajime and Kaori went on another route while deepening their bond.
Shia, Tio and Yue went on another route and it was the most dangerous amongst the others since they had to fight a bunch of brainwashed cultists.
With that 5 days passed, as they finally had a reunion on the final floor as one by one appeared in a temple room from the magic circle.
Tio jumped at Izumi's arms and showered him with plenty of kisses as she missed him very much even though it was only 5 days.
Shea also kissed him on the lips before covering her face with her ears.
However, it was very short-lived as a nearly indestructible gelatinous attacked everyone, nearly killing Kaori.
And it was solved by Izumi's newfound power in few seconds.
Yes, he for the first time used Demonic pressure mixed with Gravity magic to annihilate the monster as it was too much even for a 'nearly-indestructible' one.
After that, they were shown the memory of respective group fights, and found out something interesting.
Hajime and Kaori had a blush on their faces as their kissing and groping moments were also shown to everyone.
Everyone was confirmed to have passed the trials before they were awarded the promised age of gods magic.
The Restoration magic.
Izumi was grinning like a madman as it was one of Op ability after all.
It allows the user to restore the state of anything to either its previous or original condition. The true power of this magic is the ability to 'interfere with time', meaning it has the ability to manipulate the time of anything, anyplace or anyone to a point the user desires to.
Everyone got this magic as it was according to rule, but only three of them were able to use it as they had the best affinity with it amongst others.
Izumi, Hajime and Yue.....Of course, Grayfia and Tio would be late bloomers. Same for Shia, Shizuku and Kaori. They'll be ultra late bloomers.
Izumi immediately signalled Grayfia to activate the magic circle before the labyrinth could flush them away.
And with that their journey came to an end while a new one was ready to bloom.

"Oh?" Izumi raised his eyebrows as he sensed many different presence inside the guest room.
'So the Demons are already at their last stage of their plans. I wonder what I changed?' He thought internally.
He knew everything was happening too fast due to the butterfly effect he created.
"Izumi-sama, shall I prepare some tea for our guests?" Grayfia asked as Izumi nodded.
No matter how he loved her, he simply couldn't force her to stop her hobby.
One day, she even lectured him about how becoming a maid was her birthright and got wasted by him as he couldn't listen to her ranting.
Others also went their separate ways as they don't bother him as they knew it was what only he could handle.
Shea, Shizuku went to Shea's room so they could talk about their new power. Cyclops, Yue and Kaori went to Yue's room as it seemed Yue had pants in their relationship.

"Fufu~ Izumi-kun, it seems we're alone. Do you want to have a peek, Dear~?" Tio giggled as her kimono got a little loose, showing her assets clearly.
*Cough*
He coughed and shook his head, "Unfortunately, we can't....not right now." He smiled, reluctantly.
Tio pouted then put her hands on his face and kissed him with a loving look in her eyes. Izumi used his tongue and wrestled with hers.
They make out for 10 minutes before separated.
"Come on, Tio-chan. Fia-chan is coming with tea." He grabbed Tio's waist and appeared in another place instantly.
Tio looked around before widening her eyes.
She finally cast her eyes at Izumi and said in disbelief.
"You... You've already mastered teleportation!"
"Hmm"
"Hehehe, what face Grayfia-chan would make when she finds out about this? Fufu~"
She chuckled evilly when she thought about Grayfia's reaction. After all, it was no secret she was proud of her teleportation and always teased her when she couldn't apprehend it properly during their nightly activities.
Hohohoho.... I will definitely enjoy that moment and get her back for every teasing she has done.
Tio darkly said to herself as if it was she who mastered the arts of teleportation.
After all, her mate's success means her success, right?
Basically, it is one of the Universal truths.
Meanwhile, Izumi was like, Women and their minds.
But deep down he was also hoping for it without him knowing, of course.
Two of them entered their own lil worlds, ignoring the gazes of people present inside....maybe doing it deliberately.
