《Rise My Elementals! 》Chapter 231: The Consciousness Labyrinth
Advertisement
Basing on what the person with the name Haze had said, this place was still not the inside of the Mischievous Lion organization's Headquarters, so what kind of things would they be seeing the moment they got inside?
Would they perhaps be seeing a bunch of people jumping all over the place to arrive from place to places? Or maybe see a training ground even much more shocking than being trapped inside a cage while being attacked by dozens of Magical Beast from the outside?
No matter what it would be, all of them decided to prepare themselves mentally, physically, and spiritually.
"We are here!" Blaze interrupted, quickly pulling everyone's attention to the room in front of them.
Seeing the room, aside from Leo who has already experienced every training here and Blaze, Haze, and Glaze, everyone was immediately rendered speechless.
"There is nothing here...�� Charlotte can't help asking.
Indeed, what they're seeing inside the giant room right now was nothing. They can only see the walls and nothing more inside the room.
At the side, Leo's eyes though suddenly turned cold as he looked at Blaze, "Are you playing with me right now?"
"No no no, Leo..." Blaze quickly backed off in fear that Leo might suddenly do some harm to him, "To be honest, I'm not actually the person in-charged to choose the challenge for this month. I was only assigned to guide and handle the process because the actual person in-charged is doing something really important for the Mischievous Lion organization right now."
"Don't tell me it's the Vice-president?" Leo said with a serious tone in his voice. The people who can choose what kind of challenge should be completed before granting the right of entry to the Mischievous Lion organization's Headquarters were only the President, Vice-president, 24 Elders, and the 12 Zodiacs.
At this moment, his Master Olivia is currently very busy with the discussion of an alliance between the Mischievous Lion organization and the Blue Fin Kingdom. With how important that discussion is, obviously no one would be so stupid as to tell her that she is now in-charged of deciding what challenge for this month.
The 24 Elders are also the people who are currently leading the battle against the Silver royal family, so no one would bother with them just with some stupid thing like being assigned to choose what kind of challenge should they have for this month's right of entry. No matter how important was this challenge for the right of entry to the Mischievous Lion organization's Headquarters was, it's obviously not as important as winning this war.
As for the 12 Zodiacs, his two senior brothers, George and Charles, are also busy right now with the preparation to attack the Southern Fortress with him, so no one will also be so stupid to assign them a useless task, not to mention he himself had just returned. On the other hand, the Aries Weapons group has never ever accepted this kind of task saying that they'd rather make weapons than choose a challenge for the right of entry. It's not only a waste of time, but it's also useless to watch people do the training they have long already completed.

So, that only left the Vice-president who should actually not have anything important to do right now. To be honest, that guy was only given the position of Vice-president in Mischievous Lion organization due to the fact that he had once ruled over the Underground World of Silver Kingdom, not to mention he's actually just a No Star Mage. In fact, he would have long lost control already of the Underground World and be stripped off of his title Vice-president if not only for the reason that the 12 Zodiacs were all assigned to different cities to try to infiltrate their inside and this ahead of the schedule ongoing war.
To be honest, the Vice-president was also the person that has accepted the assassination mission on Leo in the past, specifically before the establishment of the Mischievous Lion organization. So, he really doesn't like that man.
"Unfortunately, yes..." Blaze replied with an obvious displeasure in his voice. Even he doesn't view their Vice-president with any ounce of respect. In his opinion, that guy is obviously not busy doing something important for the Mischievous Lion organization right now, but instead playing with some woman somewhere around the Underground World of Silver Kingdom.
"Let me guess, he was lying on the bed surrounded by dozens of women as he said in the most laziest voice possible, 'Everyone is busy? Can't you see I'm also busy? What?! Okay, okay, okay, I only need to choose what challenge for this month's right of entry, right? Then, I choose the hardest. Since only 12 people have ever completed this challenge in the past, hence I shouldn't be disturbed every time someone completed the challenge, right? Off you go, then!'. Am I right?" Leo said as he heaves a sigh of helplessness.
"Basing on the person who has assigned me this tasked the moment I arrived, that should indeed be the case..." Blaze nodded his head in agreement.
Since there was no choice anymore, even Leo was powerless against this, he can only choose to accept that this would indeed be the challenge that will give them the right of entry.
Turning around, Leo then looked at everyone who was all showing him a curious look on their face.
"What's wrong with this challenge, Leo?" Charlotte asked in wonder. For Leo to argue about this challenge, it should be one of the hardest.
"What you're seeing right now is the Consciousness Labyrinth." Leo began his introduction.
"Consciousness Labyrinth?" Everyone can't help asking.
"Consciousness Labyrinth is the most hardest training amongst all of the other training in the Mischievous Lion organization's Training Ground. In fact, only the 12 Zodiacs have ever completed this training in the past."

"Then..." Brad wanted to say something.
However, Leo immediately cut him off, "Let me finish first..."
"The Consciousness Labyrinth wouldn't be needing any other sorts of action from you aside from your very own mind. Just like its name, it is a maze in your own mind. And because it's a maze, the only way to complete this is by finding the exit of this maze. However, this Consciousness Labyrinth wouldn't just be any other ordinary maze, because just like any other Labyrinth, there would be other things that will come to attack you inside, specifically your greatest fear and many more traumatic and negative experiences you've ever experienced in your life. Simply put, while you are trying to find the exit, you will be training, or more appropriately be attacked in your mind and spirit by your fears and your past."
"As you have all know already, our mind is the greatest weakness we have. Even the Mages or any other powerful Foreign races are no exception to this kind of weakness, which also includes the Magical Beast as well. And the most dangerous danger in this Consciousness Labyrinth is you believing that what you're seeing right now is reality. Even if your fully aware of the fact that everything is just your thoughts before entering the Consciousness Labyrinth, falling into that belief is still highly likely to happen. And once you fall into believing that what you're seeing is the reality, your body in the reality would be abandoned, hence your body in the real world would slowly start dying."
"And I nearly forgot, this Consciousness Labyrinth is created by my Master Olivia, so it's difficulty is somewhat comparable to facing a Galaxy level Mage."
"Therefore, if you're not confident in facing this challenge, I wholeheartedly recommend you not to try. Just forget about what I've said to you before about using this challenge as a means of training. You only live once, so if you think that this is not something you can handle yet, there is no need to be afraid of taking a step back. This Consciousness Labyrinth would always be here as long as my Master Olivia is alive, so you can always try it as much as you can when you finally have the confidence to handle it." Leo finished his explanation with a warning.
Consciousness Labyrinth was his last training before deciding to return and take a rest back at Heart city, specifically when he was still 17 years old.
This was the thing he had called his Master Olivia's Labyrinth, where the actual Devil's playground could be seen.
In the past, he doesn't want to ever try this Consciousness Labyrinth, never once had he even thought of going into this place.
However, his Master Olivia pushed him in here or more appropriately forced him to experience this training.
"Master, please bring me out of here! I'm scared, it's really dark in here and I can't see anything!"
"Survive in there, child! Go and kill everyone in there if you want to survive and live to make all those people who had made you suffer pay!"
"Masteeeeeeer!"
Consciousness Labyrinth was the place where even sleeping can get himself killed because his entire surrounding was almost covered by all of his fears and past experiences, specifically the people he had killed from when he was still 10 years old to 17 years old, which he had first assumed at that time were people his Master Olivia had imprisoned, the traumatic experiences and scenes he had seen while doing his missions for 7 years repeated over and over again not letting him have a single time of peace.
To live was almost the same as dying every single day, and it was extremely hard because of the struggles in his mind between living or resting.
He wants to keep on living to make all those people who had made him suffer pay, but at the same time, he was also feeling extremely tired already and wanted to rest, to stay away from this mess.
It took him months before he finally found the exit of the Consciousness Labyrinth, and it was also the day that marked the birth of the new Leo.
The past when he used to believe in angels was disregarded and thrown to the void, and his deepest demons were the ones to rise instead to help him face the truth of his current life. But it was also what shackled him to continue walking on his chosen path, not until Cassandra and the others arrived though.
However, every person has different fears and past experiences, his was an actual Devil's playground, and the others might just have like when they lost their parents or something similar to that. Nevertheless, it wouldn't be easy.

Were that ever to fail, swift dicipline would bring his team in line. When the scroll told him to take his first retirement early, he was more than willing to return home and spend the next five years in comfort.
