All Familias Gather Together

In the blink of an eye, four days quietly passed.

On this day, the Fairy Great Secret Technique, which had been chanted underground for over a month, finally neared completion and began causing a few unusual phenomena within Orario.

Some citizens provided the Guild with information, claiming they had witnessed suspicious red lights in certain places.

Those red lights rose from underground like particles, continuously drifting upward. Along with them came a magical power that only mages could detect.

After receiving this report, the Guild sent people to investigate those locations. They discovered that the suspicious red lights were not only growing brighter, but their range was also expanding.

Some bold and capable adventurers followed the red lights into places such as underground waterways, only to encounter Man-eating Flowers there.

Yes, the Man-eating Flowers had emerged from underground.

As though they were trying to hinder the people aboveground as much as possible at this final moment, leaving them unable to deal with the coming Light of Heaven, Man-eating Flowers appeared from the entrances and exits of the various Man-made Labyrinths. Some attacked adventurers in the Dungeon, some emerged from sewers and similar places, and some even came directly to the surface, rampaging through the city like they had during the Monster Festival.

The major Familias had to expend no small amount of effort to deal with these Man-eating Flowers.

It could not be helped. Though Man-eating Flowers seemed like mere fodder before Riezel and the others, easily wiped out in large numbers, that was only because they had been facing powerful First Class Adventurers like Riezel's group.

Against everyone else, Man-eating Flowers remained an enormous threat. They possessed extremely high resistance to blunt attacks and reacted violently to magic, prioritizing protected and powerful support members such as mages. On top
