"What is this?" It looked just like a regular compass, a double-faced needle, but since it was obtained from that magical system, it shouldn't be an ordinary item, at least, that's what Daisy thought.

"Could this compass help us find the exit?" Mikan reached out to touch the compass in Unyan's hand and said with a smile. Although she knew about the system and could see the system list, she had no idea what was inside. If Unyan hadn't been holding it, she might have even wanted to zap it a couple of times to see what would happen.

Unyan shook the compass a couple of times and looked at Mikan speechlessly. "You're not mistaken, are you? We're supposed to go in, not out..."

Mikan was taken aback and awkwardly scratched her head. "Then... what is it for? Is it just to find the entrance?"

"You actually guessed right..." Unyan chuckled and shook his head, then raised the compass and said, "This is a special compass. A regular compass only points south, but this one can guide the user based on conceptual directions, like the concept of 'entering.'"

"So amazing..." Daisy looked at the compass with great interest. Although she had heard Unyan talk about the magical items in the system before, this was the first time she had seen one in person, aside from the summoning she hadn't witnessed.

"Let's give it a try..." Mikan was also curious. Although the Academy City had plenty of strange things, everything in that tech-filled world could be explained scientifically. She had never seen an item powered by concepts before.

As a 14-year-old girl, it was normal for her to be curious about new things, which showed that she was still at the age of enjoying play...

"Already in use!" As he spoke, the compass in Unyan's hand floated up, spun around a couple of times, and then shot off in a certain direction.

Daisy and Mikan were taken aback and looked at the flying compass in surprise.

"Does this compass have an automatic guiding effect?" Daisy pointed in the direction the compass had flown, her mouth wide open. A compass was supposed to only point, not lead the way. For someone who had lived in a normal world a month ago, this was quite a shock.

"It looks like it's quite fun. Let's catch up quickly." Mikan clenched her fists excitedly and took a step forward, not waiting for Daisy and Unyan, and ran off alone.

"Wait!" Daisy hurried to catch up. The fear in both women's hearts had largely dissipated, drawn by the novelty of the item. Unyan followed with a wry smile.

It's fun, but I spent 1000 item points on this 'fun'...

In the not-so-dark, somewhat lit corridor, the three of them started running, chasing the flying compass, their footsteps creating a chaotic noise that echoed far down the wide corridor.

At a certain moment, the compass flying in front of them suddenly stopped, pointing in a certain direction. The three of them quickly stopped.

Daisy looked around at the walls and rocks and said in confusion, "Is there a path here? I don't see one..."

"Is there something wrong with the compass?" Mikan pointed at it. "It seems to be pointing at a wall!"

Unyan nodded, a bit puzzled. After thinking for a while, he looked up at the wall the compass was pointing to, his eyes flashing with a complex light.

Wall: (Level 20)

Unyan's face turned awkward.

Can a wall have a level? That's impossible. If walls had levels, the Buddha's golden statue would be off the charts!

The only explanation is that this isn't a wall, but a monster, a monster named 'Wall' that looks like a wall and can block people...

This... is ridiculous! A monster just 'stood' there, and we didn't notice it on the way. Why didn't the system detect it just now?

Actually, it's not Unyan's fault. He didn't pay attention to the walls and didn't have the habit of looking at them. The system's detection function only detects things within the line of sight, so it didn't detect the wall.

"What's wrong?" Mikan asked immediately when she saw the change in Unyan's expression.

Unyan pointed at the monster named 'Wall' and said weakly, "That should be the entrance..."

Daisy frowned. "Where's the entrance? That's clearly just a wall."

"Ah..." Unyan sighed and waved his hand. "That is indeed the entrance, but it's blocked by a monster."

"Monster!" Daisy's body trembled, and she said nervously, "Where... where is the monster?"

"That's what I'm saying..." Unyan rubbed his forehead and rolled his eyes. "That wall is the monster blocking the way!"

"Wall?" The two women were taken aback.

"You mean that wall, which looks like a wall, isn't actually a wall, but a monster that looks like a wall?" Mikan's lips twitched, finding it absurd. Everyone had heard of monsters, but saying a wall was a monster was a first.

Seeing the disbelief on the two women's faces, Unyan didn't say anything. He drew the Kusanagi sword and slashed at the wall!

Logically, if it were a regular wall, with Unyan's strength, the slash would have shattered it into pieces. However, the wall was now cut with a huge "wound."

"Roar!!!" A loud roar came from the wall, more like a cry of pain.

The sound echoed throughout the corridor, causing Daisy and Mikan to scream in shock. The sudden, loud noise really scared them.

The corridor began to shake, and some rocks fell from the ceiling. Unyan quickly stepped back, joining Mikan and Daisy, and watched the wall.

The shaking gradually subsided and stopped. The strange situation made Mikan and Daisy tense, so they didn't speak, just holding onto Unyan's clothes. Unyan was a bit speechless. Although Mikan was much stronger than him, she was still young... afraid of ghosts and monsters...

Suddenly, the wall Unyan had slashed began to wriggle, like a piece of pudding, shaking up and down. In the eyes of the three, the wall quickly detached and slowly floated in front of them.

The wriggling became more intense, and two large rocks fell off the wall, creating two holes. A crack appeared below the holes, and a strange noise came from it, clearly eyes and a mouth!

"Finally, it looks like a monster..." Unyan said with some relief.

Compared to Unyan's relief, Mikan and Daisy clung to each other, looking at the wall that had turned into a face, their eyes brimming with tears.

"Roar!!!" The 'wall' roared, turned in the air, and then charged at the three.

"Get out of the way!" Unyan shouted and quickly moved to the side. Mikan and Daisy, realizing what was happening, also scrambled to avoid it.

The 'wall' brushed past the three and crashed into the back wall, then shook its body and turned around, charging at them again.

Avoiding the 'wall's' charge again, Unyan raised his long sword, and Mikan's body began to spark with electricity.

At first, seeing a monster would be scary, especially for young girls. But Mikan was a level 68 strong person and usually quite boyish, so after the initial fear, she quickly adjusted.

The unknown is the most terrifying, and Mikan demonstrated this well. Daisy, on the other hand, still looked scared, as she was particularly afraid of ghosts and monsters.

Although Unyan's eyes were on the 'wall,' he was always paying attention to Daisy, ready to support her at any moment.

It's not that Unyan didn't care about Mikan; her strength was far beyond his, so he didn't need to worry. Daisy, however, was the weakest of the three, and if anything happened, she couldn't be revived, as she wasn't one of Unyan's summoned characters.

Sure enough, Daisy was helpless against these 'supernatural products'...

Unyan sighed and charged at the 'wall' with his sword. Since Daisy was so afraid of these things, it was best to resolve the situation quickly, especially since it was only level 20.

The 'wall' had just used a charge against the three, which they had avoided. Now, it was still in a charging position, preparing to crash into the wall again. However, Unyan quickly rushed to the back of the 'wall' and slashed, cutting off a corner.

Before the 'wall' could cry out in pain, Unyan crouched down, and a blue current flashed over his head, quickly striking the 'wall' and blasting it into the wall.

"Not done yet!" Mikan waved her hands, and two more currents shot from her forehead, hitting the spot where the 'wall' had crashed into the wall, causing two loud explosions and a shower of rocks.

Standing up and brushing off the dirt, Unyan shook his head.

Why didn't you just let me kill you? Now, you've been mutilated by a violent girl...

"Is it dead?" Daisy took a step back and asked weakly, making Unyan smile wryly. He had already said, if you're afraid, don't come.

"Should be dead." Mikan casually brushed the hair on her forehead, which had been moved by the current, as if it were just a regular thug she had dealt with.

Looking at Mikan, who looked incredibly cool with her hair moving, Unyan inwardly commented.

Just a moment ago, you were scared to death...

While Unyan was commenting, Mikan was being cool, and Daisy was uneasy, a loud explosion suddenly sounded, and rocks flew everywhere. The three were startled, and Unyan swung his sword to deflect the incoming rocks, while Mikan stood still, her body surrounded by a circle of current. Any rock that touched the current turned to dust.

As the rocks were continuously deflected, the 'wall's' body, which had clearly shrunk, suddenly charged out, heading straight for Daisy.

Unyan and Mikan were startled and rushed to help Daisy, but...

Looking at the charging 'wall,' Daisy's fear grew deeper. Just before it hit her, her expression of fear suddenly broke.

"Don't come near me!!!" With a broken expression, Daisy punched the 'wall' to the ground, then clenched her hand, and the crystal sword White Cherry appeared in her hand. She kept hitting the 'wall' repeatedly!

"Don't come near me, don't come near me, don't come near me, don't come near me, don't come near me!"

Seeing the 'wall' being smashed smaller and smaller by Daisy's continuous attacks, Unyan and Mikan took a step back in unison.

The two looked at each other, gave a dry laugh, and their eyes flashed with the same meaning.

Daisy is someone you absolutely cannot provoke...
