A new report arrived in the Mayor's office. It was an exploration report summarizing the peculiarities identified by the Labyrinth Investigation Team not long ago.
Lucia, the Mayor, muttered while staring intently at it.
'Hmm... The monsters haven't increased, but decreased?'
'I've never heard of such a phenomenon before.'
Leona, who was examining the report alongside her, spoke with a puzzled face.
This was the time when the Labyrinth should be teeming with monsters. That those monsters were nowhere to be seen was an unprecedented anomaly.
If anything, there were often times when too many monsters poured out, but for them to have vanished instead.
'It certainly seems like something is about to happen....'
'Yes. How comforting.'
Lucia sighed upon hearing Leona's worried words.
Leona recalled the previous appearances of rare monster species. They were incidents that surely would have caused great damage to the city if they hadn't prepared in advance.
